The dark knight ordered his troops to form a circular formation, as they had been surrounded by the kingdom's soldiers. The kingdom's knight, accompanied by his troops, successfully encircled the dark forces. "How will you face us now?" the kingdom's knight taunted.
The dark knight sneered, "You insignificant creatures only win by numbers. You will surely lose if our numbers were greater." The dark forces readied themselves in their circular formation, unfazed by the kingdom's superior numbers.
However, the kingdom's knight ordered his troops to lower their weapons. "Put down your arms, we will negotiate with the dark knight." The dark knight was taken aback, "What negotiation do you speak of? Do you not wish to protect this territory?"
The kingdom's knight explained, "I initially wanted to kill you, but I seek information about the ancient prophecy." The dark knight replied, "You wish to know about the prophecy? That's not an easy feat."
As the dark knight began to elaborate, H. Jason interrupted, "Is what you say true?" The dark knight affirmed, "I've spoken the truth, but it won't be for long."
H. Jason pressed on, "Are you and your kind similar to humans or monsters?" The dark knight scoffed, "I'm like you, detestable. Creatures like you are unworthy of our presence."
Enraged, the kingdom's soldiers and monsters demanded the dark knight's execution. "Kill them all, they don't deserve to live!" The kingdom's knight, however, intervened, "Silence, all of you! The decision is mine to make."
The dark knight cackled, seemingly amused by the turn of events. As a kingdom soldier attempted to stab him, the dark knight offered himself up, "Kill me, if that's what you desire." The dark forces parted, allowing the kingdom's soldier to approach.
However, the kingdom's knight thwarted the attempt, "How dare you disobey my orders? I didn't command you to attack!" Despite the knight's intervention, the soldier managed to throw his sword, striking the dark knight.
The consequences of this action left everyone stunned, including the kingdom's knight and H. Jason. The dark knight and his troops vanished, leaving behind only skeletal remains and tattered armor. "What just happened?" the kingdom's knight asked, incredulous.
H. Jason and the kingdom's soldiers stood aghast, struggling to comprehend that their foes had been mere skeletons and ruined armor all along.
