Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 505: Ancient Laws of Chivalry
Other commanders would stay in the rear and make plans, but Viola was different. Or maybe it was the same with the entire Avarus royal family. They really dared to take action when something happened.

Olde had already joined the siege team, and Viola finally couldn't help it and rushed in, dragging the guard knight who was responsible for watching her.

Li Chengxi had long thought that she would not be able to hold it in, so before the battle began, he had already used the "Chosen One of Heaven" to grant Viola divine power. With this guarantee, even if she encountered a stronger opponent, she could at least run back with her life.

And there was only one person who confronted Viola.

Wearing heavy full body plate armor, holding a huge sword in both hands, he stood in front of the gate of the royal city without any defense.

If we talk about his characteristics, it is that this person is not tall. Li Chengxi thought he was a dwarf at first. When he opened the character panel and saw the race column, he realized that he was also a high-level demon.

"I am Herman Charlin Slop, General of the Enwei Demon Kingdom!"

He didn't care about exposing himself as the commander-in-chief of the Enwei Demon Kingdom in front of the enemy troops.

At this time, Viola, who was leading the charge, rode her horse through the crowd. Seeing this, she dismounted, drew the long sword at her waist and saluted as a knight.

"Viola Avarus, I have heard of your great name for a long time."

Herman was also a little surprised to see Viola's attitude.

His height has always been a flaw and he has been ridiculed since he was a child, but he reached the position of general through his own efforts. Anyone who dared to look down on this short knight paid a heavy price.

What surprised him was that Viola, who was an enemy, did not laugh at him at all, but treated him solemnly with the courtesy of a knight.

Viola knew why Herman did not retreat with the main force but appeared here alone.

If the war goes badly, there will definitely be punishment. The Demon King of the Enwei Demon Kingdom has a very cruel personality, and Horman will definitely not have a good time when he returns.

However, if the commander-in-chief died in battle and the army retreated, no matter how cruel the demon king was, he would not be held responsible. Doing so would be extremely disheartening to his subordinates.

In other words, Herman was determined to die, and was willing to sacrifice his own life in exchange for a chance to survive for his staff officer and his family.

Viola respected her opponents very much, especially those who would do anything for their ideals. Besides, compared to Herman's height, his aura was more like that of a dying lion, not someone who could be laughed at casually.

Viola's willingness to introduce herself also meant that she understood Herman's plan. In this unspoken understanding, Herman said loudly:
"According to the ancient rules of chivalry, I would like to challenge Viola Avarus to a one-on-one duel!"

Herman is a general and a knight of the Enwei Demon Kingdom. Rather than committing suicide, he would rather die as a knight.

Viola understood his determination and raised her sword without hesitation:

"I accept your challenge."

This kind of behavior, which is similar to fighting in front of a battle, is just an unspoken rule, and it is normal even if the other party does not accept it.

But Viola sensed Herman's determination, and she decided to send him away as the knight had done.

The guards beside her didn't have time to say anything to stop her, so Viola made the decision happily. After all, she was letting the guards personally fight on behalf of the princess...
Viola, who had been holding back for a whole fight, obviously didn't give Herman a chance. After she finished speaking, she walked towards Herman with her sword in hand. The two sides confronted each other across the fountain in the square, about 20 meters away.

Only then did Horman smile slightly:

"Your Highness, no, it won't be long before I call you Your Majesty. Your Majesty Viola, I don't know if you will become an excellent female demon king, but for now, I think you are a respectable knight."

"Sir Horman, I already know your decision, but I still want to ask, if there are other solutions, are you willing to come under my command?"

It's not the person but the issue. Horman's command ability is good, but the problem is that he chose the wrong opponent.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but I'm afraid I have to refuse your offer. As a knight, I cannot betray the king I serve."

Viola wasn't surprised at all to get the expected answer, but she still felt it was a pity.

"I have another question. Why did you four countries suddenly march forward?"

"Your Majesty, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Even as the commander-in-chief, I have no idea why. But one day, my king ordered the army to join the other three kingdoms and launch a joint attack."

Viola has never understood it. If you say that the Subia Demon Kingdom and the Tandron Demon Kingdom have a grudge against Avarus, it is possible that they will unite. It is also understandable that the Laxuriya Demon Kingdom wants flat farmland and wants to share a piece of the pie.

But the Enwei Demon Kingdom didn't understand it at all. They didn't have any territorial borders with Avarus, nor did they have any hatred. The relationship between the two countries was not an alliance, but it was not too bad. It was really incomprehensible that they suddenly cooperated to attack together.

What's more, even the leader of an army is not clear about the reasons behind this. I'm afraid only those at the top of the power pyramid know the reasons, such as the Demon King.

"I see. Thank you for your answer."

Viola took a deep breath and raised the sword horizontally. Herman also grasped the hilt of the giant sword with both hands. The atmosphere of friendly communication just now disappeared, and was replaced by the desire to fight each other.

The fountain between the two people made a splashing sound, and soon it fell back according to the designed pattern.

At this moment, both of them exerted force with their legs at the same time, and their figures seemed to disappear from the retina in such a fast moment.

There was a crisp sound of metal colliding between the two men, and the sparks from the collision of swords were instantly drowned out by the heavy rain falling from the sky.

When the rain slid down the outer edge of the armor again, the figures of the two people finally became clear.

There was a notch on Homan's greatsword, and a crack on Viola's breastplate.

"Your Majesty, your swordsmanship is orthodox court swordsmanship, but it is not focused enough."

In the first confrontation, Viola suffered a bit of a loss as there was a huge gap in experience between the two sides.

Compared to the Kingdom Tiger who was killed by Viola herself, Herman is at his peak both physically and mentally, and his long combat experience is not something Viola can compare to.

But Viola was not discouraged. She turned around and raised her sword again to face Herman.

At that moment, surging divine power surged from Viola's body. The strong spiritual light almost illuminated the fountain square in front of the royal city gate. The huge pressure made it difficult for the soldiers watching the battle to breathe.

Herman, who was facing the majestic power, felt as if his whole body was under a huge pressure, but he did not lower his head, and even did not bend his knees.

Like an air bomb, the manic energy greatly enhanced Horman's physical ability. Both sides knew that the first move was just a test, and the second move would determine the outcome.

Concentrate, concentrate again, don't squander it like you did the first time you controlled the divine power, the power should be used in the most critical place.

Viola was still growing, and she gradually figured out the correct way to use the divine power. The spiritual light gathered towards the blade in her hand, and in the blink of an eye, the long sword named Flame Fang turned into a sword of light.

On Herman's side, the giant sword was also full of destructive power due to the blessing of strong energy. With a slight swing, the flat square was like being crushed by heavy pressure, and cracks appeared one after another.

When the strength of both sides reached the limit, they charged towards each other again.

This time, it was faster and more elusive than the first move. In the eyes of most people, it was just a flash of light before the darkness brought by the dark clouds once again shrouded their vision.

There was no explosion, no brilliant light, only two people passing by each other.

Viola's breastplate was completely shattered this time, revealing the chain mail shirt and the cotton armor lining underneath the armor, while Herman slowly turned around, as if he was not injured at all.

But his face was pale and he forced a last smile at Viola.

"Well done, Your Majesty."

Then the light of divine power burst out from his chest, like a glowing crack, almost tearing Herman in half. His short body fell down, and the sword in his hand broke into several pieces.

Viola slowly approached, gently closed Herman's eyes, and placed the hilt of the greatsword on his chest.

"Send someone to deliver his remains to the retreating Enwei Demon Kingdom army. A knight should not be buried in a foreign land."

At this time, the dark clouds brought by divine power finally cleared up, and rays of sunlight poured down like sharp swords piercing the darkness, landing on the square in front of the royal city gate.

Viola knew she had won.
