Return of The Unrivaled Spear Knight
Chapter 264
The ground cracked under the burgeoning weight of the gathering mana. Even some of the knights bowed under the pressure. However, the place remained unbelievably quiet that one could even hear the sound of a pin drop.
One man commanded the day.

“Duke Agnus? Why is he here...?”
Despite the short remarks, it was evident that the crowd was filled with overwhelming admiration for the person in question. Some even bowed or placed their swords in front of their chests to show respect. But no one could hide their shock.
Did he come here for his child? No, he wasn’t like that. Considering his mannerisms, or at least what he showed on the outside, he should never have appeared.
“Duke Agnus,” Duke Tremblin said, his usual neutral expression in place. “Did you come here out of your own will? I came here because of the Imperial Order. Surely you know what that means, don’t you?”
Duke Agnus didn’t answer. Duke Tremblin advanced on him with his brows furrowed together. He was only three steps away from reaching Duke Agnus.
“Move away—” Duke Tremblin requested.
“Joshua is... my son,” Duke Agnus finally broke his silence at that moment
Even Duke Tremblin’s calm broke as his eyes widened. Meanwhile Count Arie, silently watching from behind, licked his lips and smiled slyly. His interest was piqued.
“Is it so strange that a father is standing up for his own son?”
“...Are you serious?” Duke Tremblin radiated deadly energy as he stood among the confused crowd. “To stand against those empowered by an Imperial Order is equivalent to disobeying His Majesty himself. For formality’s sake, I must ask: are you willingly branding yourself as a traitor to protect your blood?”
It was nothing short of a disaster.
Anyone who knew of Avalon knew of Aden von Agnus. For decades, he had been the figure of admiration for all the knights within Avalon. He was a national hero who brought the country so many victories that they could drown in them. Even if he decided to retire there and then, his name would still be talked about for generations to come.
Duke Aden von Agnus, the Dark God, one of the great Nine Stars of Igrant.
“Please don’t do it, Duke!”
“You’re the one we look up to!”
“This might be your personal interest, but please think about your household!”
“Your Grace, please!”
A truly bizarre situation ensued: numerous people raised their voices in an attempt to sway Duke Agnus's heart, but ironically, these people were still pointing their weapons at him.
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! This is the father and son duo that I need! I feel too much ecstasy! Isn’t this so much fun, Duke Tremblin?” Count Arie let out a peal of laughter.
Duke Tremblin scoffed angrily.
“A lot of knights look up to you. Think carefully before you speak. I don’t want to lose my old rival like this...”
Instead of answering Duke Tremblin, Duke Agnus raised his ink-black sword. The might of the Dark God was truly a sight to behold. His black cloak fluttered away, revealing the pitch-black armor he wore beneath it.
It was clear that his mind was set.
“Your Grace...” One of the knights on the sidelines unconsciously called out as he fell to his knees. The crest on his chest marked him as a member of the Imperial Knights, but Duke Agnus was an idol for all knights, regardless of their affiliation.
“This is astonishing.” Duke Tremblin looked at Joshua and sighed. “What sorcery did you cast to bend a man with no blood or tears?”
Joshua’s eyes shook. Even if it didn’t show, he was also bewildered. He was the son of a concubine and the second child in the household. He couldn’t even dream of life outside the stable when he was growing up. Joshua spent his last life drifting from place to place doing mercenary work. Even right up till Duke Agnus’ death when he was killed by three of the Stars in the Battle of the Kraden Plain, Duke Agnus had never sought out Joshua even once.
“Stop—”
“I don’t want to.” Joshua shook his head defiantly. “I have no intention of getting help from anyone, nor do I want to bring harm to the Agnus household.”
“You—”
“That’s the way I’ve lived until now, and that’s the way I plan to live in the future. So.” Joshua gave Duke Agnus a cold look, freezing him in his tracks. “Please move aside.” Joshua then called out, “Cain!”
“Y-Yes, Master?” Cain called out, flustered that his name was suddenly called.
“Make a way for us to escape.”
Cain boggled at him.
“Didn’t you hear me the first time?”
“No... NO! I will follow your orders!”
Duke Tremblin's eyebrows twitched as he questioned, “Do you actually think that you can get away unscathed?”
“Of course. That’s exactly what I intend to do.”
“This arrogant bastard—!”
The ground in front of Joshua suddenly cracked open and Duke Tremblin instinctively backed away. From the broken ground spewed the deadly fires of annihilation.
“That’s Thran’s Ulabis’...” someone muttered in awe.
“Such small tricks,” Duke Tremblin calmly asserted. He clicked his tongue and assumed his battle stance. He planned to cut through the flames and run after Joshua, but it was a fruitless effort.
“I told you to stop.” Duke Agnus interrupted.
Duke Tremblin frowned.
“Duke Agnus... You must—!”
“That’s enough.”
“What do you mean that’s enough? It’s an Imperial Order, and it stands above the country's laws! The voice of Avalon itself comes first before all laws! I won’t stand still if you keep acting like this!”
“This must be why this country is not moving forward.”
Duke Agnus’s voice was tiny, but Duke Tremblin heard it, of course.
“You traitor... How dare you...”
Duke Agnus cast a glance at Duke Tremblin, the latter’s murderous intent was evident. He then turned to look at the escaping duo.
Cain had turned to look back and met Duke’s Agnus gaze. Joshua, unlike Cain, never turned around.
‘So this is it.’
Duke Agnus gave Cain a light nod and straightened his back.
“Get out of the way!” Duke Tremblin hollered.
Finally, the two giants of Avalon collided.
