The Knight Doesn't Want to Be Wooed

[The author has nothing to do with it. See the guide at the bottom for why the comments section is closed.] After transmigrating, Ka Xiu proves exceptionally talented with a sword. At six, he can charge through the Forest of Monsters, and at thirteen, he is chosen as a Royal Guard Knight, serving at the side of the first heir to the throne. A new life, a fresh start. Humility, honesty, compassion, valor, justice, and sacrifice: even the harshest critic couldn't name a single flaw in him. The people of the empire adore him, the emperor holds him in high regard, and the prince... is a little too possessive, but that's acceptable. It's just that life never seems to stay peaceful for long. On patrol, a strange blond boy with long ears won't leave him alone. At dinner, inexplicably expensive seafood appears. After lights out, a man who clearly looks like trouble wants to share his bed. Even when he occasionally goes on a picnic, a dragon shows up hoping to become his mount. They also keep getting lost on the way to the church! And why is there always a priest when he goes looking for them? Who's getting married? The First Knight, drawing his sword in a flash once again today.jpg [Elf Prince, you must win the love of a brave person. Only then can your kingdom break free of its curse.] The elf prince tends to his wounds, bids farewell to the surviving members of his people sheltered by the Mother Tree, packs his bags, and crosses a vast forest stretching for a thousand miles in search of the target named by the strange voice that suddenly appeared in his mind. [Mermaid, if you seek help, go to the knight. The whole continent sings of his virtues. You must win his love.] The innocent mermaid doesn't think twice. Amid the storm and towering waves, she secretly comes ashore. [Demon King, if you want an eternal rival, become his partner. Then he won't be able to leave you.] The Demon King thinks that makes sense, so he leaves the underground demon realm. [Master of Ice, someone covets your treasure. Only the most just knight will judge you without bias. Make him love you.] The blue dragon decides that sounds like a good idea. It flaps its wings, scattering the snow that has lain unchanged for ten thousand years atop the mountain peak, and takes to the sky. Romance Systems take root all across another world, and they all choose the same target. Seeking to reclaim their kingdoms, find freedom, gain a rival, or obtain treasure, the pursuers come to the knight. Though Ka Xiu turns them down, he still helps them get what they want. Once their wishes are fulfilled, they no longer want to leave. This is a war of love! Reader's Guide: 1. The protagonist ends up alone, choosing none of the characters. 2. No character is perfect. The characters grow throughout the story. 3. A fairy-tale-style Western fantasy, though at the end of the day, it's still Western fantasy. 4. For now, I can't promise a daily update or a fixed posting time. I'll write and post as much as I can. Check your bookshelf's update notifications for new chapters. (Note from late March 2023.) 5. Any changes to the update schedule will be announced here in the blurb. 6. The internet is full of all kinds of people. The author is very busy offline and doesn't have time to moderate the comments. Dealing with defamation, including accusations of plagiarism or copying real people, as well as harassment and abuse, takes a great deal of effort, so the comments have been closed outright. Theme: Love and being loved are equal.
