The hulking champion was given a set of orders from his King. And these included killing the challenger, and once he succeeded in that task, disposing of the demi-human child who'd accompanied this group into the throne room. He was a servant, he didn't question his orders, and if he was being honest, he enjoyed any moment that he got to act with reckless abandon. "Of course your Highness, it would be my honor!" The man claimed and with this he drew a great sword from his side which was longer than Kou was tall and drew it down. "Prepare yourself! For your insolence his highness has ordered your death. May the gods have mercy, for I will not!" claimed this 'Holy' Knight as his sword sparked with lightning that shook the room as it coated the blade and it vibrated with undue amounts of power. Ser Gregor raised this sword into the air and allowed it to course with all the power he would need, and then he looked to Kou, planning to make a downward swing which would engulf the lad and all those behind him.
Even so, Miki didn't seem at all worried for Kou, in fact, she seemed to relax even more, having already fully placed her faith in the lad's abilities. Meanwhile, Hikari managed to look aghast that something like her death would be ordered over something so simple as her wanting to become a Knight. Though she didn't know this lad for very long, she had nothing but the utmost faith in him, and given the look on his face, she could almost tell he believed in himself as well. And strangely even Madoka had something to say, as the final order given by the King was one which she simply couldn't agree with. "Father, such a thing is unnecessarily cruel!" the white haired girl stated, with fervor showing in her blue eyes. Her words, caught Miki's attention and made the look on her face shift slightly as she sent a piercing crimson gaze towards the thrones at the front of the room. 'Hm, she finally grew a spine... that's interesting. Too bad, this isn't a stand she needs to take...' thought the blonde lass as she rested an arm on her knee and held up her head with a hand.
