Chapter 201 Application (35)
The Knights' headquarters.

"You mean, you want to apply to go into the Misty Mountains alone to hunt monsters?"

"Yes, please approve it, His Excellency the Knight Commander."

"..."

Bishop Rusty Nail narrowed his eyes and looked at the young man standing proudly in front of him, his brows slightly furrowed.

He was very pleased with Herbert.

This young man is an excellent choice in terms of both character and talent, and is the core of the future of the Misty Monastery.

Bishop Rusty Nail has high expectations for Herbert and hopes that he can take over his position in the future.

He even said that one day he might be able to successfully make His Eminence the Archbishop step back peacefully... but he also knew that it was too difficult.

I'm afraid that His Eminence the Archbishop will only feel at ease after a new saint appears.

That said, he hoped that Herbert could at least get the Warden to put aside his duties.

These two Excellencies have given so much to the monastery and have persisted for so long. It is time for them to take a good rest.

It’s a pity that my current strength and that of that bald idiot is not enough to reassure those two gentlemen.

But Herbert might.

If the Knight Commander and the Chief Judge's expectations of Herbert were only legendary before, then after the Battle of Frost Crystal, his expectations in the hearts of the two bishops skyrocketed.

With such talent and personality, becoming an epic powerhouse... doesn't seem impossible?

With such expectations, they mostly chose to turn a blind eye to Herbert's other minor problems in life, and tried their best to prevent others from interfering with him.

Otherwise, Herbert's life now might be much less free.

However, this does not mean that Bishop Rusty Nail will condone Herbert and allow him to take such dangerous actions.

For the Knights, entering the Misty Mountains to hone themselves is not a problem. Everyone does it often and even organizes groups to enter regularly.

But the problem was that Herbert applied to enter alone.

This is a big problem.

The Misty Mountains are full of dangers. Everyone below the Legend level must travel together. Only those who reach the Legend level are eligible to travel alone.

Obviously, Herbert has not yet reached the level of a legend, and is still some distance away.

If it were anyone else, Bishop Rusty Nail would not even ask any more questions, but would simply ignore the idiot's request and give him severe punishment.

But the person in front of him was Herbert, so he did not refuse at the beginning. Instead, he frowned and thought for a while before asking:
"why?"

He needed Herbert to give him a reason.

A reasonable reason that was enough to convince him.

Herbert was prepared for this. He straightened his back, looked into the other person's eyes, and began to tell his story.

"Your Excellency the Knight Commander, let me explain to you today."

"During this trip to Frost Crystal, I deeply realized the inadequacy of my own strength."

"If I could have strong enough strength, I wouldn't have to rely on the Rager to spread pressure, I wouldn't have to rely on her to put pressure on the kingdom, and I wouldn't have to create fear in the hearts of some people."

"If I possessed legendary strength, I could easily judge all the evil nobles myself, instead of relying on the help of the Church of God for the final step."

"If I had the power, I could have solved those problems earlier, so those innocent people wouldn't have to endure any more."

“I feel extremely ashamed of my weakness and powerlessness.”

"This is all my fault. I made them suffer."

Herbert clenched his fist, gently placed it on his chest, and said:
"After I came back, I thought about it for a long time, and I finally realized that the person I should rely on most is not others, but myself."

"Rather than relying on others, I need to improve my own strength!" "No matter how sharp the sword in someone else's hand is, it will never be better than the one in your own hand."

"So, I hope to be able to enter the Misty Mountains to hone my strength!"

"Please approve it, Your Excellency!"

When Herbert said this, he mobilized all his emotions and used the power of the devil's tongue, which was extremely inciting.

Even a cold-hearted person like Bishop Rusty Nail was slightly moved at this moment and nodded in agreement.

"You are right, it is true... I am glad that you can realize it at this moment."

He was very pleased with Herbert's idea.

Young people are always blindly confident and most of them overestimate their own abilities.

Confidence is a good thing, but blind confidence will only destroy them.

And now Herbert's performance is very surprising.

Not only did he not attribute all his previous achievements to himself, but he also knew how to reflect on them afterwards and find out the problems and shortcomings.

This is good.

really good.

It also further strengthened the Knight Commander's opinion of Herbert.

His future will definitely not stop at legend, but will definitely go beyond legend.

But one code equals another.

After being moved, the Knight Commander calmed down and finally shook his head and rejected Herbert's application.

"No."

Ten moves but still refused!

Herbert was not surprised by this result. His expression remained unchanged and he bowed his head respectfully.

"Mr. Knight Commander, could you please tell me the reason for your refusal?"

Bishop Rusty Nail shook his head and said directly, even somewhat cold-bloodedly:
"It's too risky to go into the Misty Mountains alone. It doesn't matter to others, but a talent like you shouldn't take such a risk."

His personality is such that he is cold inside and out. He speaks his mind and never hides anything.

"Even if you don't enter the Misty Mountains, the Knights still have many ways to help you improve your strength."

"You still lack a lot of training on the skills of a Paladin. You can take this opportunity to catch up."

Herbert pursed his lips after hearing this explanation.

The Knight Commander is right.

There are many training methods, and you don't have to choose the most dangerous one. Even if you do choose it, the effect may not be the best.

Of course he knows this.

But the thing is…it’s not the best thing for others, but entering the Misty Mountains is definitely the best thing for him.

I'm going to go in and kill a lot of people!
Herbert wanted to apply to enter the Misty Mountains. His main purpose was to make good use of his conquering power and find monsters to level up.

I go there to level up, not to be leveled up.

Bishop Rusty Nail knew Herbert was unhappy when he saw his expression, so he shook his head and said, "You can't go in alone. If you must go, you must go with others."

"The Knights will organize a hunting competition in a while, and you can form a team with others to participate."
