Some died fighting to gain eternal glory, but only these 40 were worthy to proceed.William and Rolfe were still fighting despite the bell. They had to be pulled by their respective team to prevent disqualifications.“Save your strength for tomorrow’s challenge, Jousting!” the King declared, and the arena delighted in the fierce rivalry between Rolfe and his rival.“The Kingdom enjoys your team battle. Therefore, it is right to battle with your brothers in arms to the next challenge! The announcer said as the people cheerfully yelled in support of Rolfe and his ten knights against William and his 28 companions.Rolfe removed his silver helm, wiped the dust and blood from his armor, and turned to the crowd, “Seeing you smile and united with happiness makes me glad. Since Pentalium attacked our Kingdom, we ha

And like her, the whole arena watched in awe as the two rivals duke it out.All were drawn to the spectacle, but Lenato, with his Sense, heard Rolfe scream William’s name.“William?” Lenato pondered as he looked down at the Tarwood knight just a few levels below him.“Surround them and give me a tea,” Lenato whispered to a scared noble beside him.One by one, nobles across the benches raced towards the Frostholds and fought over who got to talk to them first. Everyone wanted to secure a business deal with the most profitable ale and wine maker of the Kingdom.John, Berg, and George found themselves caught in a stampede, unable to move, breathe, or even see Lenato.“Alright, gentlemen, let’s take to somewhere more comfortable,” Berg and George invited their

After he showed kindness to others and proved strong against Rolfe, some bet he would attract contestants to his side.Everyone gauged their favorite contestant's odds of reaching the next challenge.However, there is one in the streets of the Capital whose mind is too preoccupied thinking of such things, Julie. She hurried back to the Frostholds’ inn, ready to share the result of her investigation.

A Squire's Journey Chapter 51 - Heart of Gold
Across the Capital, lodging areas turned into a pugilist arena overnight. The people dined at their local pubs and enjoyed the ongoing struggle of the contestants over the ribbons.The colourful night sky was joined by a huge fireball shooting from the northern sewers of the Capital. The authorities said that fireworks launched from the sky managed to reach the manholes and caused an explosion, resulting in the deaths of the workers.William overheard soldiers passing while hiding in a dark alley. Their whispers confirmed his suspicions; the public knew this was an accident. But to him, he knew John and the rest were wreaking havoc in every sewer across the Kingdom.He smiled, knowing their plan was working out. This time, they had an advantage against Pentalium.William wore a cloak and hid the bundle of ribbons underneath his wraps.

After the first challenge, John and his team made their way back to their hideout. While the Capital and the contestants prepared for the night, John processed everything that had transpired below the race tracks.They arrived at an inn where Berg and George paid off the establishment. All those months of selling ale and wine now fuel their fight against Pentalium operations.John and the rest celebrated their victory with a tasty dinner. While feasting, John reported their events to the Frostholds.Berg was shocked by how fast Pentalium moved. George reasoned that the construction of the sewer would all have to go through legal means.“The King or the Princess approved of its construction,” Berg said, exhaling a sharp bitterness in his voice.The lengths Rolfe had gone to position himself in a positive light before the people was no mere coincidence. Rolfe came to help them against the Inquisition. Now, the Kingdom looked up to Rolfe as their hero."The favored knight of the Kingdom

A new day dawned, and the knights gathered before the construction site. The area around the stage and beneath the arch was being prepared for an arena.“This is for the future challenges!” the King said.“By now, you should know that jousting and duelling are mainstays of the Grand Tourney,” the Princess addressed the contestants. But her gaze was fixed on the nameless knight with hope. Her eyes asked him to defeat Rolfe if he could.“Worry not about it. First, you must find a way to make it through the second game!” The Announcer called forth the organizers, who carried baskets of ribbons toward the knights. The crowd watched with excitement.“Each of you bears a secret number: the sum of your flags. Seek the one ribbon that matches your sum exactly. Fail that, and three different ribbons will still grant you passage. But beware: every ribbon you carry makes you a target,” the Announcer said.Tension hung thick in the air. Rolfe could taste it. William dreaded it.“Return here by to
