Volume 7 Chapter 77: We Should Fight!

"Miss, it has been so long!" Sterling's expression brightened as he saw her. Krystal shook her head, "I'm glad that I met you. But you should do something about that first." Did he forget about the guy under him? 

"Oh, yeah." Sterling grabbed the guy and picked him up, "Hand the bag over."

"Here!" The mugger didn't hesitate as he handed the bag to him.

"Good. Now run off. And here." In Sterling's hands were a couple of bronze coins. 

"Eh?"

"These days have been horrible without the grand duke. However, wait it out. He will return and make this place great." 

"...Mmhmm." The snatcher took the coins and quickly ran away from there. 

"Are you sure you should have let him go?"

"I can't blame him for doing something to live." Sterling sighed, "Most of the lives in Duchy have changed these last few months."

"Sterling."

"Young Miss, we should go. I don't think we should talk here." A crowd of people was slowly forming around the three. Sterling quickly returned the bag and headed off with the two. 

"Where are we going?"

"We're going to our home." When they arrived at the location, Keith realized something.

Slums. This place had slums as well. 

Not surprising.

"You live here?"

"I'm not the only one. There's also Eren, Ricko, and some other knights."

"They're all here?!" Krystal's expression changed. 

"Here is our base."

"...You guys live in that?" Krystal was in disbelief as she stared at the home before her. This home was a shack. Riddle with holes everywhere; it was close to falling apart any second. It was worrying that Sterling and the rest lived here. 

"It may look like that on the outside, Young Miss. But the inside is quite cozy. We had fixed it up quite a lot." Sterling chuckled as he opened the door. And when the three entered, a couple of burly people came to greet them! 

"Young Lady!"

"Everyone!" Krystal's expression brightened as she saw them. She was glad to see everyone here. 

"How are all of you?"

"We're doing good!" "We've been working out as well." The knights flexed their muscles. 

"Quit showing off." Sterling smacked them in the head, "Forgive them, Miss. They're just glad to meet you."  

"I'm glad to see you all like this." Krystal nodded, "But why are you guys all here?" Krystal was still out of the loop with all of this. From Rodrick's dark expression, it seemed something terrible had transpired.

"Ah," The other knights scratched their heads as they turned to Sterling; this man had to be the one to explain what occurred. 

"...I punched the brat."

"What?"

"I punched that bastard's son," Sterling explained.

No wonder he looked so stupid. Keith remembered Arnie. More specifically, his face and his left cheek bulged red. And there seemed to be a tooth gone as well. 

"I couldn't help it. He was talking down about the duchess."

"...What did he say?" 

"He called her a fool and said that she should continue to stay in bed and not think about being the head." That angered Sterling. He couldn't control it and decked the brat right across the face. It sent him flying across the barracks. 

"I shouldn't have done that. Now, I let the madam all alone." Just utter regret. What he did had given Rodrick an opening to take over as Grand Duke. Violet was left in the open as well. 

"Mother is alright."

"Eh?"

"Mother is awake now."

"That's great!" Sterling and the other knights sighed in relief.  

"I take it that Dolus was appointed to be the commander of the knights after you left?" Keith asked. 

"...Yes. Dolus was the 5th in command. He never should have been in the running for commander of the knights. However, he decided to suck up to Rodrick. The one who should be the next commander is Leland." Sterling groaned. 

"I see." 

"That fool is causing so much trouble."  

"Indeed he is." Keith nodded. 

"By the way, Miss. Who is this person?" Out of nowhere, everyone was now surrounding Keith. But the boy remained calm. He answered, "Hello, my name is Keith. I'm friends with Krystal at the academy."

"…Are you strong?"

"I'm alright."

"We did not come here to spar." Krystal groaned, "We must deal with Rodrick and how he took over." 

"Young Miss, we already have a plan."

"You do?"

"We're going to rush in there and take everything back."

"No! Don't do that." Krystal quickly denied it, "Do you know the consequences of attacking them?" Execution was definitely on the table. 

"Young Lady, I have seen your father take care of the duchy with all his might, and I refuse to let it go down the drain because of the fool. If it means getting executed, then I'm prepared."

"Yeah!" "We have to fight!"

The other knights also agreed. Having Rodrick there would only cause problems. 

"That's some good spirit."

"That's the spirit of the Rustchil Knights." Sterling grinned. 

"Keith," Krystal looked at Keith with pleading eyes. She was asking him to do something about this. 

"What? I agree with what they're doing."
