The Heiress Of The Legendary Family [S1]
Knight Exam: Check

Taps... Pt .. Taps...

Their footsteps sounded earthy in the quite dark hallway. They entered a cave not far from the mansion.

The four of them were silent, making no sound at all. Each focused on his thoughts.

"We've arrived" Sang Butler said as they were at a dead end.

Charles clicked his tongue. "There's nothing here, you know" he murmured that Casilda could hear.

"There, really, Charles. In front of us is something" whispered Casilda with her eyes fixed on the dead end.

Suddenly the dead end opened itself, like a door opened. Smoke came out from inside that dead end.

When the dead end was completely open, they could see a large enough crystal stone in the middle of the room. The stone emitted a colorful light similar to a beautiful galaxy.

"Woaaahh..." The three of them—Casilda, Eden, and Charles— couldn't help but marvel at that, because the crystal stone was truly beautiful to behold.

"Well, come on in" said Sang Butler.

Get them in there. The closer they got, the more they realized that there was a special altar under the floating crystal stone. The altar was inscribed with some complicated ancient letters.

Casilda who could read the letter was immediately entrenched, 'These letters are right....'

Charles's aware. "What's up, Brother?"

"Ah, no. I just realized something from these letters" Casilda replied as she was.

"Oh yeah? Can you read the ancient letters?" asked Eden and replied a nod by Casilda. "Woah! Cool!" marvelled. 'Mom will definitely bless us even more!'

"What is it, brother?"

"These are the letters that make up the ancient runes, special covenant magic. I don't know what agreement is written there, but I think it will require a drop of blood from the person who will make the agreement" Casilda explained as she placed her hand on her chin.

The Butler who heard it from the open dead end smiled. "All right, it's time for me to go. You will be guided by that crystal stone" he said.

The three of them looked over. "Eh is gone? Why?" ask Casilda.

"Because there's a rule that the supervisory committee cannot be in the testing room to keep the new Knight's members safe" the butler replied.

"Oohh.." nodding Casilda. "Anu, thank you for guiding us all this time."

Butler smiled back. "Sama-sama" replied. "And never forget that you have to keep a secret, yes."

"Eh? Classifieds?"

"Consecration ap—"

Without answering the question, the butler disappeared from there. Then, the originally open dead end began to close, leaving the three of them and a crystal stone floating in the room.

"Congratulations, you guys are the first to meet me here" said the crystal stone.

The three of them were surprised that the crystal was able to speak.

'So, this is what is meant by this crystal stone that will guide us.' the inner Eden understands.

"Before, you must understand that if you want to become a Knight, you must pass the testing" the crystal stone said again.

"What kind of testing should we take?" ask Casilda.

"Just something easy. You only need to drip a drop of blood on the altar below me. That's where your identity will be listed in the Knight Squad."

The eyes of Casilda and Charles patterned instantly. Does that mean their identities will be revealed?

"But take it easy, the only ones who will know your identity will be me and your teammates."

The crystal stone's words made Casilda and Charles sigh in relief. At the very least, they still had a chance to take revenge, as their identities had yet to be revealed.

"However, you must remember that this is a very sacred covenant. Because, if you break the covenant, your soul will be destroyed and will never be reborn."

The three of them looked at each other and nodded simultaneously. "What conditions do we have to do?"

"That's easy. First, you have to keep your mouth shut about what's going on in this room. Second, you must maintain the identity of your teammates. Third, you must be able to accept the identity of your teammates. Are you ready?"

"I'm ready" replied Casilda.

"If you're ready, so am I" Charles added.

"Me too" said Eden.

"Well, you guys are compact, yeah! Good, now, follow my orders. Put your blood on the altar below me. Not much, just one drop. And don't let your blood get mixed up, yeah!"

Casilda bit her thumb until it bled. Charles slashed his index finger with his needle that was not smeared with poison. Eden slashed his palm with his sword. They then dripped a drop of blood each at a different point.

Spring... PYAAATTSSS

A light coming from the altar struck them. Sparks of light flew through the air. The light shone for a few seconds, then dimmed.

"Alright, I already know the identity of each of you. Welcome to Knight, Casilda Sapphire, Charles Tourmaline, and Eden Onyx."

The three people gasped and looked at each other in shock.

"You're from the Onyx Clan?!" ask Casilda and Charles at the same time.

"You guys from the Sapphire Clan and Tourmaline?!" peekik Eden's.

"..." - ".The three of them were silent. "....I can't believe it.." they said simultaneously.

"Surely Brother feels confident that you will not reveal our identity, apparently because you also have a silent identity apparently" Charles snorted. "In this case, my question of your strength has been revealed."

Casilda nodded. "Unfortunately it's true. And I can't believe you're from the Onyx Clan closing yourself off from the outside world" he replied. "It turns out the world is full of plot twists."

The jet-black straggled youth patted his own forehead. "It is fitting that your aura is similar to that of a member of the Main Family, it is indeed true. I even got suspicious of you guys. I'm sorry...." He regretted it at the end of the sentence.

"Gpp, I'm strong" Casilda replied completely unencumbered.

"I'm the one who's suspicious of you" said Charles. "Where do you know that Tourmaline is a member of the Main Family? What generation of people now knows about that clan."

'You speak as if you were very old, Charles.' Casilda commented inwardly.

"Of course I know, because it's written in the library of the Onyx Clan" Eden replied.

"Ah, yes. True too, Onyx and Sapphire used to be friendly. Tourmaline and Sapphire were also friends. It is only natural that Onyx knew about Tourmaline, because Onyx adheres to the principle of 'The closest person of our friend is our closest person as well'. Surely Onyx think Tourmaline is their friend, just like Sapphire" explained Casilda.

"Yes, that's right" Eden nodded. 'Casilda was very smart, she even knew about my family.. Hehe.. Father and Mother would agree... Hehe..'

Charles cast an aura of hostility on Eden. 'I know what you're thinking, you idiot! Just watch out for you!'

"Well, since we already know each other's identities and have become teammates, please help him, yes, Eden." Casilda reached out her hand to shake the black man.

"Yes, so am I." Eden returned Casilda's hand. 'If I want our relationship to be more than just a teammate...'

Then, Eden reached out her hand to shake Charles.

'What lo?! Don't be so smart, huh! There go! Lo dirty!' charles' cynicism in the heart.

Eden speechless. It seemed like it would be difficult for him to gain the full trust of Charles.

"Have you guys finished talking?" ask that crystal stone who felt neglected.

"Ah, yes. Sorry" reply Casilda.

"Then, take it." A light appeared and formed three pieces of paper that were each before the three of them. "That's your identity details. Well guarded, don't lose it."

Casilda picked up the paper that was in front of her. The paper had a crystal stone emblem and contained a special aura. 'It seems that this emblem and aura functioned so that the details of my identity could not be faked' the girl's inner self.

Casilda who saw him was amazed by herself. It turns out, he's strong too, yeah. He looked at the two young men who were beside him. They must not be less powerful than him.

Then, his eyes were fixed on an information. 'Uncle from Mom's side? That means I have other family? And also... I have another sister!! Yeaayy!!' the joy of Casilda in the heart. 'But unfortunately they are gone... Hicks..'

"For that, take it easy, Casilda Sapphire."

"Eh?" The sapphire blue-blossomed girl turned to the crystal stone that was talking to her.

"Your family is gone, but their souls are still in this world, waiting for you to come."

"Is that really?!"

"Yes, that's right. You'll be able to feel it."

Casilda gave a big smile. He still has hope. "Good! Thank you! I'll find them even if it takes a long time!"

"Good decision."

TBC.
