Who Said Knights Can't Backstab

Who Said Knights Can't Backstab

by OldMonk

LitRPGPortal Fantasy / IsekaiProgressionAnti-Hero LeadWar and Military

He was the greatest Rogue the game had ever seen. Now he's been reborn inside Path of Radiance — for real. Cyril wakes to a surreal sight: the dreaded "Dusk Shadow," an undead overlord destined to annihilate the Empire's finest, is on her knees at his bedside... gently wiping his face. The kingdom is falling apart. But Cyril knows every quest, every twist, every boss fight that's coming. So he does what any reasonable person would do — he kidnaps the final boss and drags her along to save the world. Vanguard charges? Check. Stealth takedowns? Check. Leading from the front while stabbing from behind? Absolutely check. Sword drawn, emerging from the shadows, Cyril grins: "Who said knights can't backstab?"
