Looking at the twelve newly appointed Dragon Sanctuary Holy Knights below, Cassius exhaled a puff of sulfur-smelling smoke and casually praised:
"Frederick, you have a good eye."
After all, as mortals, to accept the frenzied bloodline of a Red Dragon without bursting apart, they were undoubtedly among the best of the best, and the complete success of all twelve candidates far exceeded his expectations.
Frederick bowed his head and responded calmly, "It is my honor to receive your praise."
He was very clear that his only task was to find and nurture the Dragonsworn Holy Warriors for Cassius. As a former "Black Lion Knight" who served the enemy and lacked the deep ties of benefit like Mezulash, even with absolute bloodline suppression, Cassius would never trust him with all the power of the Hall of Dragon Oath to become the direct controller.
