CH 2: The castle of the black knights.

The duo had already walked for what would be half an hour, in that time León could see how strong this girl was.

Her name was Clara Vermont and she is an apprentice of the black knights, according to the observations made during the journey she must have a rare class.

These combine the use of witchcraft with martial arts, Clara only uses a sword but after a few questions I learned that her members use all types of melee weapons.

It would be a great benefit for me to somehow be able to take that class later.

After another half hour they arrived at what would be a somewhat mountainous area, in the middle of these elevations there was a hidden castle.

This had a medieval structure where black, red and sometimes green tones marked the entire color of the castle.

According to Clara, they were dedicated to eliminating the demonic acolytes, humans who, in their stupid faith towards demonic beings, gave their lives to them.

She also emphasized that witches like me or beings with their kind use the power of the demonic dimension but unlike the acolytes we do not use the power in order to bring the legion to this world.

"Admire the Midnight Fort"

Clara said, sticking out her chest, very proud and I had to agree with her, the sight of such an imposing structure was wonderful for the eyes of any modern human.

"It's truly wonderful"

The girl looked at León, obviously he couldn't see her face covered by a mask but she was smiling.

The girl guided León towards the doors of the castle where they were quickly stopped by a group of knights.

These wore light armor of dark colors, some used spears, swords and swords with shields.

"Show your gentleman's ID or you won't be able to come through here."

Clara took a step forward and took out a medallion from her pocket, it had a demon printed with red and green colors.

"Rank 1 Apprentice Clara Vermont."

The men quickly confirmed the badge, guided them into the castle as they entered through the door, Clara dropped a small drop of blood on a statue of an imp.

As the blood fell, the statue's eyes glowed green.

"You have passed, now your partner"

One of the guards guided Declan in front of the statue, but he was stopped by Clara.

"He is someone who saved me during the operation, he has a letter for the leader"

The guards looked at Clara and nodded and let them pass.

Declan was guided through the castle to the main room where the leader's office was, the door rang 3 times before he heard the man's loud voice allowing them to enter.

"Happens"

Clara pushed the door revealing a burly man wearing black knight armor, with green and gold colors.

"Sir, this man next to me is Declan, a young man I ventured who recovered the letter sent to you from Lord Val'karden."

The man extended his hand and Declan approached giving him the letter, he received the letter and began reading it immediately.

The moment the man finished reading it, a system message arrived from León.

[You have delivered the letter to the Lord of the dark knights castle]

[The lord is pleased with you, your affinity with knights has increased by 100]

[Your reputation with the dark knights changes from Unknown to Known]

[You have unlocked the minimum requirements for the Dark Knight Class]

[You have been the first player to raise his reputation level, you have won the popular title]

"Hahaha very good, boy, such courage and bravery to help a knight despite your low level deserves the greatest respect, ask me for something and I will fulfill it"

Declan bowed slightly before speaking.

"Sir, in my time traveling with the knight here at my side, I have realized the profound bravery and great honor it is to belong to such an order. I would like you to allow me in due time to belong to such an honorable place."

The man looked at him intently.

"Although your strength is still weak, you deserve respect for safeguarding such important information, so when you complete the tutorial, I will allow you to join the initial phase, succeeding in joining or losing the opportunity will depend on you."

Declan didn't show it but he was deeply pleased, he had barely started the game and had already gained a huge lead.

"Knight Clara, give the young man the recruitment badge, at the end of the tutorial he can use it to join the initial phase."

After her words, they both left the room, Clara was a little shocked, joining such an organization of knights was something very rare, so much so that she had reached level 20 as a witch before being able to join this place.

León was happy with his win, not only with his possible class change, but in addition to this, along with the medallion, he received 40 gold coins, a fortune for these moments in the video game.

He thought about disconnecting for a while until he remembered that he had to join the tutorial as quickly as possible.

"Clara, we need to go to the tutorial area quickly"

She looked at him and sighing, she told him.

"I'll ask permission to fly on a Helldrake to take you away."

The wait was only a few minutes before permission was granted, apparently her action of carrying the letter had helped him more than he thought.

Clara rode the Draco and took Declan behind, the trip in the Draco was short about 1 hour which translated to about 7 hours on foot.

[You have entered the tutorial area]

[Aerial mounts are not allowed in the tutorial area, please lower yourself to the ground]

Clara quickly went down and left Declan in place.

"I must go quickly, a person of my level should not be within the tutorial area, good luck."

[Global Announcement: User Declan has been the third player to find the tutorial village]
