'Why do they all look like that? Did they contribute to the stopping of the enemy raid that much?'
Then all the guests start to show up, and the tables start filling up. Sirius a.s.sumes that they were all n.o.bles. Then the ceremony began.
"We are here to celebrate these youngsters for stopping an enemy raid at this fort. I, Marquis Don, will present them the rewards in order of most contribution to least contribution. First is Sylvia Ester, daughter of Duke Ester. She will be awarded the t.i.tle knight and a peak grade rare fire blade for destroying the lab that the enemies were after. Next is Daniel Rose, son of Duke Rose. He will be awarded the t.i.tle knight and a late-grade ice spear for killing two official tier combatants. Next is Evan Hazer, grandson of Duke Hazer. He will be awarded the t.i.tle knight and the mid-grade steel sword 'Feathered blade' for capturing three enemies. Finally is Sirius, a commoner. He will be awarded with the t.i.tle squire and three low-grade experience potions for killing an a.s.sa.s.sin and injuring another."
While he was speaking, Sirius noticed something about the speaker and the crowd. When they were talking about the kids of the dukes, everyone clapped and looked proud and sincerely appreciative, but when he was mentioned, the distaste on everyone's face was as clear as day. He reasoned that maybe the others accomplishments weren't as good as they sounded, and that they probably had a outside help, but he couldn't say anything about it out of fear of punishment from the n.o.bles. When the ceremony was over, they went down from the stage to eat the banquet that was set. The others were congratulated, and praised constantly about their futures, while those who talked him did so in an arrogant manner. He even heard in some conversations that this was the peak of his life, or that he somehow fooled the higher ups into giving him awards. It was upsetting to hear this. When he went to the others for a chat, they all just glared at him until he left. He then decided that it was best to leave early. Then next day, he got a letter from his professor on getting a t.i.tle. Later that day a guard came in.
"Squire Sirius, since you now have a t.i.tle, you will be transferred to Fort Geret, the fort closest to the dark forest. When you get there, you will be placed in the hunting department, in which you would be responsible for getting resources out the forest. You will be sent there tomorrow, so pack your bags."
The guard then left, leaving Sirius alone with his thoughts.
