Chapter 287 (2): The Five Chosen Knights United in One
White Night Creed was controlled by Darienne, and she had priority over Wayne. Unless she released her transformation, Wayne could never put on the armor of Moonlight, no matter what. So, even though the small eyeball for Moonlight on the Book of Greed’s cover glowed, surpassing Sun and matching Darkness, nearly overtaking Death and Nature, even though Wayne was filled with light-silver mana, he still couldn’t transform on the spot.
Darienne didn’t dare to release her transformation. She bore the heavy responsibility of suppressing the seal and couldn’t give Wayne the chance to prove himself. However, the fact had presented itself. Whether she accepted it or not, Wayne had the authority to transform into the Moonlight Knight.
Damn Church of Nature and damn Moula, stealing my successor from me!
Darienne only had one thought in her head: she was here first.
Kristen was the one who led Wayne down the path of magic, and Filomina was the one who taught Wayne the divine arts of elven transformation. He was destined to become the Moonlight Knight, but the Church of Nature played dirty.
Darienne stood blankly in place for a long time. Putting White Night Creed away, she asked the question that was bothering her: “Why are you both the Nature Knight and the Moonlight Knight? Why can you become the Moonlight Knight even after becoming the Nature Knight?”
“...”
“Say something, Wayne!”
“I’m just a boy, Darienne. If you don’t know either, how could I possibly know?”
It was such sound logic that she couldn’t argue against it.
Darienne opened her mouth and then closed it, hesitating before saying stiffly, “So what are you now? Which goddess’s knight are you?”
Although she had phrased it as a question, she stared intently at Wayne’s face and coerced him before he could speak: “Say it. Say that you’re the Moonlight Knight. Kristen and Filomina have given you everything. You have to do right by them!”
