Chapter 205: Chapter 21: Salted Fish Port (2)_2 After a brief silence, Yilin softly said, "I’m sorry, Gray." "Why are you apologizing?" "Because... you dutifully fulfilled your oath, yet I can’t complete mine. I can’t even bring all those loyal to me here to protect you. I can only come by myself, even though it might not be of much use." "No, I’m already very happy that you came. At least it proves I still have human friends, doesn’t it? I’m not that much of a failure." "No, you’re not a failure at all. On the contrary, you’re very successful. You are the most upright, kind, and greatest knight I’ve ever seen. You’re a gift from the heavens to this world, greater than any human knight. You perfectly fulfilled your knightly oath and adhered to your beliefs. It’s the world that has failed, not you." Gradually, Yilin’s eyes began to glisten with tears. The sea breeze gently blew, bringing the noise of the distant ocean. The two of them quietly stood there, gazing at the sea under the night sky. "Thank you, Yilin," Gray replied softly. ... The sky began to brighten with the coming dawn. Early in the morning, a group of knights arrived at the castle gates. "Open the gate! We are knights of the Beisher Family, here to see our Duke!" Huoersi shouted at the top of his lungs. Mike, Abi Robbs, Pas, and several other knights of White City followed behind him. The gates opened, and the drawbridge was lowered. Huoersi was stunned for a full five seconds at the sight of the Silver Moon Knight’s bare skull guarding the gate. Though he had been mentally prepared, he was still stunned for five seconds. The others were even more so. "Do you want to come in?" Carl asked them. "Uh... yes, we would like to enter, is that okay?" "Of course, please come in." Carl stepped aside. Huoersi hesitated for a while before finally riding his horse across the iron drawbridge with great effort. The others hurriedly followed one by one, leaving only Pas standing there. "Are you coming in as well?" Carl asked. "Of course," Pas replied, swallowing hard before finally riding his horse across the drawbridge. ... Dismounting, Huoersi walked into the castle while shouting, "Miss Yilin—! Miss Yilin—!" "You don’t have to shout like that, we’ve already sent for Miss Yilin to come down." Grabbing the Silver Moon Knight who spoke to him, Huoersi shouted angrily, "If Miss Yilin is harmed in any way, we will fight you to the end!" Pas and Mike quickly pulled Huoersi back. "Don’t do this, no matter what, Gray, even if he is a Lich, won’t harm Miss Yilin!" "How do you know? Do you understand Liches? It was true that he wouldn’t do anything before, but who can guarantee that now?" "Alright, alright, let go! Let go!" Finally, Huoersi’s hand was pried off. The freed Silver Moon Knight could only shrug helplessly and step aside. Soon, Yilin came down the spiral staircase in her military uniform, followed by Gray. "Why have you all come?" "Miss Yilin, are you alright?" Yilin smiled and replied, "The battle hasn’t even started yet; how could I be in any danger?" Seeing that Yilin was safe and sound, moving freely, Huoersi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Abi Robbs, Mike, Pas, and the others respectfully bowed to Yilin and then to Gray. After bowing, Pas cautiously asked, "Are you... Gray?" "Yes, I am Gray," Gray said softly, still standing on the spiral staircase, "I’m surprised you could recognize me, Pas." "Uh... I only recognized you by your armor. It’s different from theirs." "I didn’t expect you to come. I’m really happy you did." "Hehehe." Pas smiled wryly, shrugged helplessly, and said, "I had to come. I boast to everyone that I’m your best friend, and now many people are out looking for me, so I had nowhere else to go." "Anyway, thank you all." "We’re here to protect Miss Yilin; it has nothing to do with you!" Huoersi shouted. Mike quickly explained, "No, that’s just him. I believe in you, even though you’re a Lich, I still believe you’re an honorable knight. Of course, I’m mainly here to protect Miss Yilin; supporting you is just incidental, as our relationship isn’t that close." "Us too," the others chimed in. "Thank you," Gray replied softly. ... That afternoon, Jones and Dora arrived with three Bone Horses. "Actually, I could have arrived faster, but you wanted me to bring the horses back too, which slowed me down a lot." "What about Andrew?" Gray asked. "Andrew..." Jones’ gaze flickered, then he looked up and smiled, "You know how he is. He said that once the situation calms down, he’ll take care of your wife and child and avenge you. I think it’s just an excuse to escape." "Cowardly, effeminate elf!" Bangchui spat hatefully, and the other dwarfs spat along with him, showing their disdain for Andrew. Gray stood quietly, saying nothing. ... Following closely, the Gruglu family’s retainers, disguised as civilians, arrived. There were fifteen of them, riding horses and hiding weapons on their persons. "The Count hopes to temporarily bring the lady and the young master back. After all, there’s no point in them staying here, is there? Surely, the Holy Knight will agree. If you could also write a letter personally annulling the marriage, that would be even better." Gray turned to look at Shelley, who looked down at Richie standing beside her. Richie looked up at Shelley and said, "I’ll go wherever Mama goes." Shelley softly said, "It’s very dangerous here, but Mama has to stay with Papa." "Then Richie will stay with Mama." Gently stroking Richie’s head for a while, Shelley finally looked up at the messenger and said, "Please tell Father and Grandfather that Shelley wants to stay with her husband." Helplessly, the messenger respectfully bowed, "I understand. I will convey it truthfully." The Gruglu family’s retainers left. ... The next day passed, and on the morning of the third day, Camilla arrived alone. She looked very disheveled, having had to travel with a headscarf covering her face to avoid attracting attention. When she saw Gray, she was stunned for a long, long time, then said, "Captain of the Silver Moon Knight Order’s Third Squad, Camilla White Fox, reporting! Camilla will faithfully fulfill her oath!" After a pause, she continued in a low voice, "Bob and Carey can’t come. They’re both under house arrest. I snuck out myself. The Third Squad is down to just me. Benedict II said he must be responsible for the entire Sharp Family and will join the crusade against us, but he promised to leave an opening so we have a chance to escape safely." As she said this, tears streamed down her face, and she sobbed uncontrollably, yet she stood in front of Gray like a knight, refusing to wipe her tears. "Understood, thank you," Gray replied softly. ... The news of Gray’s arrival at Salted Fish Port soon spread. Unexpectedly, people began arriving at Salted Fish Port one after another. There were knights who had once benefitted from Gray and didn’t mind that he was a Lich. There were merchants who believed in Gray’s character and were willing to offer him help. There were spies, as well as those who believed Gray must be evil and wanted to embrace the darkness. In short, all kinds of people, a small number, scattered about, converged on Salted Fish Port. Time flowed like fine sand, slipping away bit by bit through one’s fingers. The situation on the continent was tumultuous, with various maneuvers emerging, as the kings and people of all sorts seemed eager to profit from this event. The Holy See raised the banner to crusade against Gray, seemingly returning to its peak of influence. Military forces began to mobilize frequently. However, Salted Fish Port, which should have been the center of the storm, remained as peaceful as the afternoon sun, as if nothing was about to happen. On the fifteenth day of Gray’s return to Salted Fish Port, a large group of special guests arrived, led by a familiar figure—Dean.
