The knighting ceremony was a very formal occasion, with everything arranged according to a set procedure.
Thus, during the knighting ceremony, except for Reiger, who was the main character, everyone else was merely background decoration and had no role other than as witnesses.
However, with so many high-ranking nobles present, it was naturally impossible for them to just make an appearance and then leave.
For them, the knighting ceremony was Reiger's stage, but after it ended, it was their time to shine.
Especially for those nobles who had long had their sights set on Reiger, they finally found their opportunities one by one to establish a connection with him once the ceremony was over.
This was not an easy feat!
Even before Reiger had revealed his identity as a Sword Saint, many nobles had already wanted to get closer to him, but they were all rebuffed.
