Chapter 350: The Secret of the Village
"House Silversword?" The one-armed old Knight frowned upon hearing this.
House Silversword was located in the northernmost region of the empire which was very far from their village. To an ordinary human, it would take more than a month to travel on foot. Even with a carriage, it would take them three to four weeks depending on the weather.
Seeing his doubtful look, Alaric took something from his pocket.
"Here is a token to prove my identity." Alaric showed them a token which depicted the symbol of House Silversword.
The old Knight was a learned individual and he had also been to the northern region quite a few times in the past so he was familiar with the insignia of House Silversword.
Upon seeing the token, the old Knight couldn’t tell if it was the real thing. He needed to observe it closely in case it was an imitation.
"Toss it here." He told Alaric.
Alaric didn’t mind his cautiousness and tossed the token to him.
The old Knight caught the token and inspected it carefully. The weight seems right and this material is legit.
This is real. He is indeed from House Silversword.
After verifying that it was real, the old Knight relaxed his guard and handed the token back to him. "Here is your token, my lord. I apologize for being rude."
