Chapter 556 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 556

In the bustling market of the Border Guard, two peddlers discuss the rumors surrounding the 'Mad Knights.' One peddler describes five legendary figures: an axe-wielding lunatic who targets nobles, a half-beastman who shreds people, a blood-drinking swordsman, and a perverted murderer. A blind old man, having paid the peddler for information, listens to these accounts. An infantryman under Rem's command approaches, expressing deep conviction that one of the knights is a genuine lunatic, and warns the peddler about the dangers of badmouthing them. The infantryman reflects on Rem's strict discipline regarding leave and training. Encrid, disguised in a cloak and hood to avoid recognition, observes the blind old man, noting his ability to navigate the crowd and his strange, faint presence. As the old man nearly walks into a brawl between merchants over territory, Encrid intervenes by grabbing his sleeve to steer him away. The old man acknowledges Encrid's kind heart despite being blind. The market is shown to be a chaotic hub of rapid urban growth, filled with various factions, including long-term residents and recent immigrants, leading to frequent skirmishes that the local guards must quell. After observing the city's development and the presence of the Gilpin Guild, Encrid exits the crowded center and walks through the cleaner, wider alleyways, enjoying the pleasant weather and the peaceful atmosphere of the growing city.
