Intermission 1 - The Knight
+++
Saber’s POV
+++
When I first opened my eyes. The only thing that appeared was darkness. Slowly light appeared. What I first saw was my creator.
“The birth of servant Saber is complete!! Arise king of knights!! Serve by my side in this world of Arlenia!! Mwahahahaha!!” –Dasas
Non-Player companion Saber is registered to the party of player Dasas
I learn later that players were beings from beyond. They came to our world Arlenia. To defeat the calamities that befall the world. Players must be heroes to have such great power. No. They are some sort of great beings. The players are able to create people after all. The player Dasas created me and calling me servant Saber.
My racial profile had been set as a high elf from The Kingdom. A nation of knights. Elves from the kingdom have sturdy bodies and high affinity to light based magic. Making them the perfect knights.
My creator is now my master. With the blood of knights running through my veins. I will uphold my duty and serve my master faithfully. I had been named Saber after a sword. A suitable name for a knight. I am delighted to receive such a great name.
Years passed. I faithfully follow my master on his adventures. One day he bestowed upon me mythic class weapons. That I have only seen players equip. The mythic class sword Excalibur and mythic class shield Aegis. It is a great honor for a non-player knight to receive such holy weapons. I again renew my vow as a knight. To serve and protect my master. Wherever he may go.
Later on. My master created more people of various races to serve in our party. My master never gifted the other members of our party with mythic class weapons. Aside from me.

This mean master places his trust in me the most. It fills my heart with great emotion. Yes my master. My body and soul are yours to do as you please. Your commands are absolute. I carve this notion onto my very soul.
Many years passed. The other members and I are working towards the god class weapon, for our master. Today is the day. When my master will finally complete his god class weapon. I am happy. All our effort has paid off.
Currently master is on the fourth floor. The workshop in his mansion. Completing the final steps to his weapon. I wait for my master near the stairs on the third floor. Where all the bedrooms are located. I hope to be the first to congratulate my master on his god class weapon. When he comes down from the workshop.
My master seems to have finished. I see him coming down the stairs. However, my master looks very distraught. I am worried something is wrong. As his knight. I must ensure his safety.
“Will you need assistance master?” –Saber
My master has a flustered look. When I spoke to him. He replies with “Saber?” I am unsure what is wrong. I repeat my question. If he requires my help. Master allows me to assist him. I follow right behind him.
Once my master and I left the mansion. What greeted our eyes was an unfamiliar scene of forests and a sky with three moons. I immediately realize. We are not on Arlenia anymore.
I look to my master. Noticing the shocked expression on his face. I must prepare myself for whatever may come. I realize this was not what my master anticipated. We entered back inside the mansion. Move up to the second floor. Then my master goes and sit on his golden throne. Staring down at me.
“What the hell is going on?” –Dasas
I do not know master. Whatever is going on. It does not change my duty. I will follow my master’s orders. Face this new world with him as his knight. Any who brings harm to master. Will be cut down by my sword.

Godfather Of Champions
This is a story about the pursuit of victory.— «I subscribe only to the theory of victory. I only pursue victory. As long as I am able to obtain victory, I don’t care if it’s total football or counterattack. What is the ultimate goal of professional soccer? In my opinion, it is victory, and the pinnacle of victory is to become the champions. I am a manager. If I don’t wish to lose my job or be forgotten by the people, there’s only one path for me to take, and that is to lead the team in obtaining victories, in obtaining championship titles!»The main character was not well-liked by people.— «⋯We conducted a survey which had been deemed by Manager Tony Twain as extremely meaningless. In a random street survey conducted, ninety-three percent of those surveyed chose the option ‘I hate Tony Twain’, while only seven percent chose the option ‘This person is rather decent, I like him’. It is worth noting that nobody chose the option ‘Who is Tony Twain? I don’t know him’. Mark, do you know why Manager Twain felt that our survey was very meaningless?» Parker, a reporter from laughed loudly and said when he was being interviewed by BBC.But there were also people who were madly in love with him.— When Tony Twain was forced to talk about the survey conducted by during an interview, his reply was : «I am happy, because Nottingham Forest’s fans make up seven percent of England’s population.»And he did not seem to care about how the others saw him.— «What are you all trying to make me say? Admit that I am not popular, and everywhere I go will be filled with jeers and middle fingers. You all think I will be afraid? Wrong! Because I am able to bring victory to my team and its supporters. I don’t care how many people hate me and can’t wait to kill me, and I also won’t change myself to accommodate the mood of these losers. You want to improve your mood? Very simple, come and defeat me.»His love story had garnered widespread attention.— «Our reporters took these pictures at Manager Tony Twain’s doorsteps. It clearly shows that Shania entered his house at 8.34pm and she did not leave the house throughout the night at all. But Manager Tony Twain firmly denies, and insists that that was merely the newest-model inflatable doll which he had ordered.He was the number one star of the team.— «⋯ Became the spokesperson of world-wide famous clothing brands, shot advertisements, frequented the fashion industry’s award ceremonies, endorsed electronic games, has a supermodel girlfriend. His earnings from advertisements exceed his club salary by seventeen times, owns a special column in various print medias, publishing his autobiography (in progress), and is even said that he is planning to shoot an inspirational film based off his own person experiences! Who can tell me which part of his life experiences is worthy of being called ‘inspirational’? Hold on⋯. Are you all thinking that I’m referring to David Beckham? You’re sorely mistaken! I’m talking about Manager Tony Twain⋯.»He was very knowledgeable about Chinese soccer.— «⋯ I’ve heard about it, that Bora gifted four books to his manager Mr. Zhu before your country’s national team’s warm up match. After which, the team lost 1:3 to a nameless American team from Major League Soccer. The new excuse that Mr. Zhu gave for losing the match, was that Bora gifted «books» (‘books’ and ‘lose’ are homophones in the Chinese language). Here, I recommend that you guys find out what that one specific book is. Which book? Of course the one that caused you all to score a goal. After that, tell me the title of the book. Before every match, I will gift ten copies of that same book to you. In that case, won’t you all be able to get a triumphant 10:0 win over your opponents every time?» An excerpt taken from Tony Twain’s special column in a certain famous Chinese sports newspaper.He was loved and hated by the press.— «He has a special column in at least four renowned print media, and he is able to get a considerable amount of remuneration just by scolding people or writing a few hundred words of nonsense weekly. While we have to contemplate hard about our drafts for three days before our boss is pleased with it. In an article inside his special column, he scolded and called all of the media ‘son of a bitch’, announcing that he hated the media the most. But every time he publishes an article, we flock towards him like flies which had spotted butter. Why? Because the readers like to read his news and see him scold people. I dare to bet with you, and Manager Tony Twain knows clearly in his heart as well, that even though he says that he hates us, he knows that the present him cannot do without us. Similarly, we also cannot do without him. Is this ultimately considered a good or a bad thing?» Bruce Pearce, a reporter from said with a face of helplessness when talking about Tony Twain.But no matter the case, his players were his most loyal believers.— Gareth Bale, «No no, we never had any pressure when playing on our home grounds. Because the pressure is all on the manager. As long as we see him standing by the side of the field, all of us will feel that we will be able to win that match. Even the football hooligans are like meek lambs in front of him!» (After saying this, he began to laugh out loudly)The reply from George Wood, the team captain of Nottingham Forest, was the most straightforward. «We follow him because he can bring us victory.»The legendary experience of Tony Twain, the richest, most successful, most controversial manager with the most unique personality!Debuting this summer.Thank you for reading.
