“Next, we have the most noble recipient of the Order of the Garter, the Grand Cross of Saint Michael and Saint George, the Grand Cross of the Bath, the Victoria Cross and the lower grades of Knighthood, the leader of the anti-colonial movement, the bell-ringer of the East India Company, the hero of the Crimean War, a Fellow of the Royal Society, a lifelong dear friend of literary giants such as Dickens and Great Dumas, a steadfast supporter of scientific luminaries like Faraday and Darwin, having served as assistant under-secretary, deputy under-secretary, and permanent under-secretary in departments of the Home Office and the Navy Department of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, the inaugural Cabinet Secretary and head of the civil service, the first graduate and most distinguished alumnus of our school. Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.”
Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?”
The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero. Why not say something they'd like to hear?”
Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!”
“Oh!!!!”
The audience erupted into thunderous applause.
“Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately.
The applause grew even more fervent...

Suddenly, a solemn and reverent shout broke this painting-like scene.


It was the Royal Attendant Officer George Elliot, it was the King calling.


Arthur walked up to the King, placed one hand on his chest, then bowed his head, kneeled on one knee.


King William IV revealed a hint of admiration in his eyes, but soon suppressed his smile, picking up the Knight Sword from the tray beside him.


King William IV drew the longsword, tapped his neck and shoulders three times with the back of the sword, then solemnly placed the sword back on his shoulders and asked.


Are you willing to uphold the principles of honor above all, to see honor as your life, and always maintain noble standards of behavior, allowing no words or actions to tarnish your reputation.


Are you willing to be loyal to your lord, absolute loyalty to the lord and monarch, willing to risk your life and fulfill your vows and duties without hesitation.
