Others Summon Dragons, I Summon Legendary Knights novel Chapter 472

Chapter 472: Shocking Revelation

Back when Godfrey held Ken, none of them realized something invisible moved downstairs. It had been standing idly below the ladder all this while but suddenly moved.

Each step took this invisible being straight to Kazuo’s room. Then, the shoji door slid open, revealing a large room.

It didn’t have much, just a bed with Kazuo lying on top. The moment the shoji door slid open, Kazuo smirked.

"Did they eat?" He tilted his head toward the door, but there was no one there, just darkness.

Kazuo sat up. "Yuna?" He frowned.

His window was wide open, and the soft moonlight flooded his room. The corridor was quite dark, but the soft glow should have allowed him to see whoever opened that door.

"It will soon be time for the sacrifice, Yuna. How about you agree to get married to me? I can protect you." He raised an eyebrow.

"Yuna!" Kazuo yelled, assuming she was taking precautionary steps to ensure he didn’t do anything funny.

"Tch! This stupid woman..." Kazuo rose and went to light up his lantern. The moment it came on, he felt the light of the moon darken.

Kazuo slowly turned his head and saw a towering golden knight whose helmet had no eyeholes.

Kazuo froze for a moment, then collapsed, almost sitting on the lantern. His heart almost burst. All he could think of was running as goosebumps flared up all over his body.

As he dashed for the exit, Ballista swung his ironclad foot, sweeping Kazuo’s feet from under him. Then he lifted his hand, the knuckles of his golden gauntlet reflecting in Kazuo’s eyes.

The man still hadn’t fallen. His body was still midair as that blow tore through his skull. Then he dropped, a hole where his face once was.

He threw an arrow crackling with lightning into the chest of the corpse, scorching it until all that remained were scattered pieces of his skeleton.

The shoji door shut, and Ballista went back to his post. Silent, like he didn’t even leave.

At the first floor, Godfrey leaned on the windowsill. "I had my knight deal with him."

Ema’s mouth was open for two seconds before she closed it and simply nodded.

Ken glanced at Yuna. "What do we do about her?"

"If you kill her, you will have to kill everyone in this town."

"So what? They’re not even people." Ema scowled. "They’re like NPCs in games. Dungeons just got bigger and decided to create people to make things more competitive."

What Ema said made Godfrey’s eyes widen subconsciously. NPCs...

Why did this sting? All of a sudden, Gwen Pendragon’s statement about him being fake resurfaced in his mind. The mana tree could manipulate a lot of aspects and concepts to birth things. It made this dungeon. It gave birth to him.

Didn’t that also make him like these people? Or was he superior because he had a real father?

"Dungeons are not games, Ema. These people are not NPCs. Because if they are, they’re better. NPC means non-playable character. Wouldn’t that mean you’re a playable character? Then, who’s your player?" Godfrey tilted his head toward Ema, his eyes slightly narrow.
