Chapter 1367
The Almighty Dragon General
Evan was shocked and spluttered. âSir, please reconsider! The Excalibur is the symbol of our
knighthood. If you give it away, our knights will lose their faithâ¦â
Koehler raised his hand and interrupted Evan.
âIâve already decided. In the past couple of centuries, no one was born with the Knightâs Soul and thus no
one is capable of wielding Excalibur.
Anyway, I just intend for it to be a lucrative attraction. Even if I give it away, the person who gets it may
not be able to wield it.
I simply want a chance to fight against powerful people from all over the world before I die. Itâll be the
perfect finale for my life.â
âI understand. Iâll see to it immediately.â
Evan did not stay long. He left as soon as he had finished talking to Koehler.
Koehler walked outside and stood on the castle wall. His eyes peered into the distance.
His wrinkled face was filled with resolve and determination.
âThis time, I want to show the world the strength of knights and prove that weâre the strongest existence
in the world.â
Meanwhile, James was resting in Durandalâs Imperial Castle.
After sleeping for some time, he was awakened by the ringing of his phone.
He rolled out of bed and picked up his phone. Looking at the screen, he saw that it was Callan who had
called him.
James murmured with a frown, âWhatâs Callan calling me for at a time like this? Could something have
happened in the Capital?â
A shiver ran down Jamesâ spine as the thought crossed his mind.
He quickly answered the phone and asked, âWhatâs wrong, Callan? Did something happen in the
Capital?â
Callan replied uneventfully, âNo, all is well. Itâs just I got ahold of some news and wanted to ask if you
knew about it.â
âHuh? What kind of news?â After learning that nothing had gone wrong during his absence, James
sighed in relief.
âAre you in Durandal at the moment?â
âYeah. Whatâs the matter?â
âHave you met with an old man named Koehler yet?â
âWhoâs Koehler?â James answered confusedly.
Callan explained. âKoehler is the leader of Durandalâs Knights. He led his knights in a quest to invade Sol
a hundred years ago, but I defeated him.
I thought he died long ago, but I just heard that heâs still alive.
According to the news I received, heâs organizing a martial arts exchange conference that will be held at
Mount Olympus in Durandal.
The conference winner will receive half of the Keyes familyâs wealth as well as their sword, the
Excalibur.â
Callan briefly relayed the news he had received.
James was shocked after learning about it.
âWhat? I havenât heard anything about this? thought James.
âJames, your appearance in Durandal must have given him the idea to organize this martial art exchange
conference.
Heâll surely send me an invitation to participate in it. He probably wants to defeat me in the conference
and redeem himself for losing to me a hundred years ago.
However, Iâm not planning to participate this time. Since you happen to be in Durandal, you should
participate in the conference on behalf of Solâs martial artists.â
Callan spoke his words with a deep gravity to them, âThis isnât some school brawl. I heard that strong
people from around the globe are planning to enter.
This is a critical moment to defend the dignity of Solâs martial artists. We canât afford to lose. Moreover,
the reward is the symbol of knights, the Excalibur.
It holds a special place in the hearts of knights and is an incredibly powerful weapon. You must come out
victorious and bring back Excalibur.
âItâs rumored that knights must obey the order of the one who possesses Excalibur.
âThus, having the Excalibur will mean you have command of all the knights in Durandal.â
Callan poke about the conference in great detail.
âAlright. I understand. If Iâm still in Durandal by the time the conference starts, Iâll swing by and compete
with all these extremely experienced fighters.â
âThatâs it for now. Iâll hang up first.â
James casually tossed his phone away.
âAn international martial arts exchange conference? This seems more promising than the Mount Thunder
Conference in Sol.â
After giving it some thought, James decided to shelve the idea for the time being.
He had to leave the castle as soon as possible to start investigating Delilahâs whereabouts.
Only after he settled this matter would he have the time to consider participating in the martial arts
exchange conference. If he happened to be free by then, he would participate.
If he did not have the time, he would have no choice but to give the conference a pass and return to Sol
as soon as possible and sort out the countryâs numerous issues first.
