"Oh, great God who reigns supreme over all mankind..."

A young man said out while looking at the gel-like entity with dog features before him.

"Please explain to me how can a dog like this exists?"

Part 1: The Story of the Knight
~ Protagonist POV ~

"You ready?"

"As always, RAAHHH!"

What we are looking at right now is one hell of a fire dragon. And trust me, it is not friendly.

Well, before we begin the battle, I'd like to introduce you guys to the setting. Location England, it is the peak of the Middle Ages, where magic and monsters are rampant. So, here we are, the titular Knights, men who follow the code of chivalry, serving under King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, to help the commoners with their problems, may it be with monsters or just rescues and fetch quests.

Let us introduce ourselves. I am Sir Lance of Riverton, and my heavy duty friend right there is Sir Rexinold of Gaulia. As opposed to what people think of a normal knight with all of his body protected by armor, I am what you call 'the nimble knight', who are known for only wearing a chestplate and boots for armor. All other clothing on me are just normal, like what commoners wear. While Rex here is a total big guy, complete with whole body armor, well, he does not wear the helmet, so...

"RAAAAHHH!"

Oh, it seems that Rex had already taken down the dragon, and uh oh, he is really injured. I go to him to give him some of my health potions.

"Lance, you idiot! Why did you..."

"Sorry, Rex, was daydreaming," I apologized while handing him the health potion.

"Why did you have to daydream while on a kill quest?"

Yes, I am quite the daydreamer, the one who saves the girl and rides off into the sunset, the end. Hey, it is a good daydream.

"That attitude of yours will get you killed someday..."

"Nah, that is not gonna happen, since I'm the hero and such..."

Rex sighed, "Ugh, again with his 'hero of legends' act..."

"My song will echo through centuries to come and... OW! OW!"

Rex pinches my right ear. Really now, no sense of humor?

"If you keep fooling around like that, you are better off with a job as a jester," Rex said.

"Haha, very funny, Rex, very funny..."

*rustling*

I quickly take notice of the quiet rustle. I have quite the sharpest hearing in all of the Knights. I tap Rex's shoulder.

"Rex, did you hear that?"

"Hear what?" he replied. Oh right, his hearing is quite 'problematic' if you can describe it in one word. You see, once when we did a quest regarding the capture of a mage gone amok, the mage in question casted an explosion spell, which I had warned Rex, but as we tried to get away from it, I, who was nearer to the spell, got inflicted with serious injuries, while Rex almost lost his hearing. That is when I got serious and trained to be the fastest moving Knight there is.

"Was I imag---"

*bang*

Then, as I was finishing my sentence, an unknown spell was cast. I sidestep to avoid it. What was that?!

"Rex!"

"What--- AH!" he shouted as he dodged the same spell. Though I don't know what school of magic was that, I know who can cast such a spell...
