Chapter 8 - A month Later

"You sure soak up knowledge like a sponge," Sir Phoenix said as he looked at Michael. Thirty days had passed since he first started training under Phoenix, and today was the final day of his training.

"You've learned everything I could teach you... Sigh... And here I was hoping I might be able to keep you for a bit longer. But you absorbed everything in just a month," Sir Phoenix said, shaking his head.

"Of course, that's why I'm even happier than if I had kept you in my knight order," he added with a proud smile.

"It was my pleasure to learn from you," Michael replied sincerely.

Phoenix laughed. "Haha! Good to hear that," he said, nodding in approval.

"But are you sure you don't want to be a knight? I'm pretty damn sure you might end up becoming a Legendary Knight given your talent," Sir Phoenix asked as he looked at Michael with a mix of curiosity and regret.

Michael shook his head. "Being a knight will limit me. Here, I want to see this vast world."

Phoenix sighed. "Regretfully, you're right," he admitted. But then, a thought crossed his mind, and he smiled. "How about this?"

A system notification rang in front of Michael.

[ You have received the honorary title: "Honorary Knight of the Eternal Kingdom" ]

[ You can accept or decline this title ]

[ If accepted, you will receive recognition and benefits that come with the title ]

Michael raised an eyebrow. "What are the duties of an Honorary Knight?"

Phoenix chuckled. "Nothing—except that when the kingdom is in danger, you will be expected to come and aid it."

Michael smirked. "That sounds fair. I'll accept it, then."

The system alert chimed again as he confirmed.

Sir Phoenix patted Michael's shoulder. "Very well, then. Go, young man. I hope to hear of your deeds."

Michael nodded, a determined glint in his eyes. "You will." With that, he turned and left, stepping into the vast world awaiting him.
