บท 499: I Am Also a Knight

"How can we believe you? What is your proof?" Oscar was wary after what just happened earlier when they thought it was enemies who were eavesdropping on them.

Odette was about to speak, likely in Nadia's defense. But Nadia gestured to her that it wasn't necessary.

Nadia had her proof and she seemed confident about it.

"I am also a knight, so I am allowed to carry these weapons here," Nadia showed them a brooch that she wore as a necklace. She had been hiding it in her clothes.

Her fellow assistants gasped.

It was the brooch of the Valerian knighthood.

"How are you able to be a knight and yet an assistant as well?" Egbert was puzzled.

"I and my brothers were knighted by His Majesty for our service, loyalty, and dedication to our homeland even in turbulent times. I'm sure you have heard about what happened to Safiro by now. I keep overhearing people talk about it."

"I heard the story. But I thought only your brothers and the warriors with him were knighted," Norbert wondered.
