I Am Genie-Chapter 109: The Knight Knelt Down
Looking around, she saw about a dozen boys and girls. They were originally lined up from the start, but seeing Iris was about to arrive, they actively scattered to make way for her.
She noticed but wasn't too surprised. Most dragons back in the day were also like this when she appeared. Those dragons even knelt, not just moved aside like this. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Of course, there were some exceptional dragons that were extremely powerful. Those kinds she respected more, so they didn't need to do anything when meeting her.
"When is that damn knight coming? Does he intend to make me wait like this?"
Since when did this low-level noble knight type have the right to make Dragon God wait? Even though she no longer has the power of a god now, Iris's pride hasn't diminished one bit.
The village chief was so scared his back was soaked. These high-level nobles, if displeased, really could kill people, so he absolutely couldn't mess with them.
Just as he didn't know what to say, suddenly the sound of hooves from afar rang out, making the village chief feel greatly relieved.
"My lady, the knight is right over there."
All three people looked in the direction the village chief pointed and saw a tall figure riding a warhorse slowly approaching.
He wore shining armor with a sun symbol on it. He also carried a large flag with a similar symbol.
Seeing his leisurely attitude, ignoring that others were waiting, made Iris really want to beat him up. Not just her, but Michael felt equally annoyed. Only Leo was used to this kind of scene, so he had no special reaction.
But their strength didn't allow it. Even though the knight's strength on a worldwide scale wasn't much, he was still much stronger than three teenagers who had just reached level ten.
That knight seemed to have his eyes on top of his head because he didn't see the group of people standing there. He held his head high, raising the flag proudly.
"In the name of Sun God, I'm here to grant my blessing to you lowly people. Why aren't you kneeling before the great Sun God?"
His voice was loud and clear, solemn, and also carried his own personal pride. After all, forcing ordinary people to kneel before him would result in severe punishment from his superiors.
Everyone present there simultaneously knelt down. On their faces, there wasn't a trace of fear because those who were afraid had already been killed.
Kneeling before gods must be done with respect and solemnity. Fear itself is showing disrespect towards the gods.
The veins on Michael's and Iris's foreheads twitched. This arrogant piece of trash actually dared to tell gods to kneel?
Iris is Dragon God, Michael is a genie. Both are real, genuine gods. How could they do such an embarrassing thing?
As for Leo, he also intended to kneel like the others because right now he didn't want to get himself into unnecessary trouble.
With his experience, just by observing a bit, he could tell he wouldn't last one round if this knight fought seriously.
Compared to Raphael, this knight was nothing, but the three of them combined right now couldn't beat him.
But since both Iris and Michael weren't kneeling, he couldn't kneel either. If he knelt, those two would definitely look down on him.
Being looked down on by others wasn't a big problem, but if these two comrades actually looked down on him, that would cause many issues.
The knight only now noticed the anomaly, which made him extremely puzzled. Someone dared not to kneel?
He lowered his gaze and was scared out of his wits when he saw Iris. As for Michael and Leo, dressed in rags, he didn't think much of them.
'Damn it, just how much is that dress worth? Each gemstone on it is something I definitely can't afford right now. No family crest, yet dressed like this coming to a remote place... She must be some noble young lady who ran away from home to play.
The two guys behind her are probably slaves. With that kid's face beaten all swollen like that, she's probably not someone gentle. Better to be careful. A knight like me can't afford to offend these big families.'
The knight's brain worked at full capacity, scaring him so much his back was drenched in sweat. The fact he was still alive until now must be because he hadn't offended her yet.
Commoners indeed need to kneel, but there's no rule that forces nobles to kneel. Unless participating in a major event at The Great Sun Temple, then they need to bow their heads a bit to show respect.
Iris saw the knight was a bit shaky and couldn't help but curl the corner of her mouth in satisfaction. Daring to make her kneel before Sun God, she definitely had to scare him a bit.
"Well well, does this knight still think I need to kneel?"
As she spoke, she stared at him with eyes full of killing intent. Although she no longer has the power of a god, her aura is still not low.
Even Michael and Leo standing nearby, though not the target, still had to swallow a gulp of saliva. That knight was now so scared he was about to faint.
He immediately got off his horse and knelt on one knee, taking off his helmet and placing it beside him. Of course, he stuck the flag upright because if he dared to throw the flag down, his career would be as good as over.
"I kneel before you and swear before Sun God that this fault is mine. If my honor in your eyes is worth enough, I place it under your judgment."
Iris was stunned by the knight's action. It was the first time someone had apologized to her in such a formal way, so she was a bit unused to it.
Suddenly she looked at Michael, which made him feel extremely uneasy. In his heart, he silently cursed eighteen generations of that knight's ancestors.
"You watch him and learn. From now on, you need to know how to apologize properly like that, understand?"
Her words made Michael furious, but for now, he still had to act. This debt definitely had to be quietly noted down, waiting for the right moment to make her pay.
