Chapter 144 Knights of the Round Table
Man Tu stared at Bernie's movements nervously. With his keen eyesight, he could see that even if Bernie drank all the recovery potions, he could only remove half of the seal at best. As for how Bernie would remove the remaining half, he really couldn't see.

Soon, as Mantu expected, Bernie's potion ran out and the huge magic circle also showed signs of polarization.

The left half still glows, emitting a holy aura.

The right half was dull and had no magic left.

One can vaguely sense that there is an extremely violent aura coming from under the magic circle. Just this little bit of aura that seeps out is enough to make people feel a little creepy.

This is a great temple filled with infinite brilliance. The holy light shrouds it all the time. At the top of the temple stands a sacred and majestic statue of an angel with twelve white wings spread out as if ready to fly. The angel has his eyes slightly lowered and his hands on his chest, as if he is praying in a low voice. A closer look reveals that the boundless holy light is emitted from this statue.

This is the headquarters of the Holy See, one of the most powerful organizations in human history - the Temple of Angels.

It is rumored that this temple was built by the God of Heaven himself as a gift to mankind, and the carved angel is the supreme commander of the angel army, second only to the Archangel Michael of the God of Heaven.

As to whether this rumor is correct or not, perhaps only the top leaders of the Holy See would know.

In the Temple of Angels, some priests in white were performing their daily prayers, and several paladins in armor were walking out of the temple with serious faces, as if they had been assigned some important tasks.

The most important thing is not these. A door inside the temple that would not be opened easily actually opened slowly today, and a knight with a serious face walked out quickly.

The first thing that comes to mind about this knight is white! His armor is as white as snow, without a single flaw, and against his already fair skin, he looks like a noble prince.

"Ah, I can finally get out and get some fresh air!" As soon as the knight went out, he stretched his body and even yawned, destroying the cold image he had originally created.

"Hi, Lifia, long time no see. I wonder if I can have the honor to have dinner with you tonight?" When the knight saw a female priest, his eyes lit up and he ran up to her to strike up a conversation.

The female priestess, who was called Lifia by the knight, froze slightly, and her steps that were originally intended to escape couldn't help but slow down.

When some priestesses around saw that Lifia had become the target of the knight, they all gave her a look that told her to wish her the best of luck, and then disappeared without a trace.

When Lifia saw that the knight was almost in front of her, she wanted to escape, but when she thought of the knight's identity, she hesitated and had no choice but to stay where she was.

"Lord Jegenos, it's been a long time since we last met."

"Oh, my beautiful Lifia, you can just call me Genos, no need to add sir, because maybe we will be a couple that others will envy in the future, and there is no need to use honorifics between couples."

The knight stepped lightly, as if he was not wearing heavy armor, and his figure floated to Lifia's side. He looked at Lifia affectionately and continued, "Lifia, I'm so happy that you can remember my name. Does it mean that you have agreed to my last proposal?"

After that, the knight knelt on one knee, stretched out a hand to Lifia, and said deeply: "My dear princess, if you are willing to marry me, please hold my hand."

"Lord Jegenos, I, I." Lifia stammered, almost crying. Why am I so unlucky? Why am I the one being targeted by the biggest outlier in the Holy See? There were so many other people just now, why did they choose me? Haven't you proposed to all the women in the Holy See except the Saint? Why did you come out to find me this time?
Just when Lifia was at a loss, a cold female voice came.

"Genos, what are you doing here if you're not on a mission?"

"Yes, Lady Saint, I will go and carry out the mission right away!"

Genos, who had just proposed passionately, stood up straight in an instant, saluted with a standard knight's salute in a certain direction, and hurriedly walked out of the Temple of Angels.

When Lifia saw Genos leaving, there was a hint of dullness and confusion in her eyes, but then she came to her senses.

She knew that it was almost impossible for them to be together. She was just a lowly priest, while Genos was one of the high-ranking Knights of the Round Table. There was a huge difference in their status.

At the end of the temple is the round table.

This sentence has been circulated in the Holy See since its founding. Only the most outstanding knights and priests are qualified to sit at the Round Table and become the last guardians of mankind.

Today, there are thirteen people at the round table, and each of them possesses power at the pinnacle of humanity, which is the glory level if measured by the adventurer level.

Today's round table leaders have long surpassed the realm of humans and reached an extraordinary level.

There are even rumors that the current head of the Round Table won a great victory after fighting against a certain alien outlier, nailing the opponent to the ground alive with the Holy Spear, and shocking countless aliens who coveted humans.

Genos is the current seventh seat of the Round Table - the Perfect Knight.

Of course, this so-called flawlessness refers to the fact that he is flawless in battle. In real life, he has long been a nightmare in the hearts of all women in the Holy See and a public enemy of men.

Almost all unmarried women have been given golden roses that represent love by Genos, and he has proposed to them all like he did to Lyfia just now. However, since he has proposed to so many people, no one knows whether he is sincere or not, so no one has agreed to his proposal so far. However, Genos does not care about these things. He still does his own thing and proposes to whoever he meets.

As a result, all unmarried women stay away from him when they see him.

If it weren't for Genos' noble status and super strength, there would be only a few people in the Holy See who were superior to him. Otherwise, he would have been thrown out by those angry priestesses.

Of course, not all the other people at the round table have weird personalities like Genos. Although a few of them are quite different, they are much more normal compared to Genos.

I just don't know what happened in the human kingdom that required the Saint to send the Knights of the Round Table to deal with it. For ordinary small matters, the Paladins are enough. If that doesn't work, there are several Round Table substitutes. The Round Table will only be asked to take action when something really big happens.

Although she didn't like Genos's frivolousness, Lifia still secretly prayed to God for him, hoping that he could return safely from this mission.

　I think it's necessary to give a warning. The protagonist should be offline for a little while longer. It's really just a little while.
