The Holy Knight is Actually a Scoundrel

Luo Wenkai, a Holy Knight renowned as the "Favored Child of the Holy Light," is anything but a traditional hero. With his carefree demeanor and a tongue as sharp as a blade, he has turned the Holy Light Church, the Inquisition, and even the demon lords of the abyss into his personal playground of chaos. Once the pride of the Church, his "unorthodox" methods earned him a cataclysm-level bounty on his head. Now, having walked away from the sacred city with a devil-may-care attitude, he embarks on a world-trekking adventure cloaked in an earth-shattering secret.

In the Kingdom of Aestoria, Luo Wenkai rescues a noble lady, Vera, who finds herself entangled in a web of conspiracy. His intervention inadvertently unearths the Church's millennia-old forbidden secret—the "Witch Project." Determined to protect Vera, the proud and fiery noble, he takes her along on a perilous journey. Together, they face remnants of the Truth Tower, assassins from the dark races, and even the Church’s internal power struggles.

As the journey unfolds, Luo Wenkai’s hidden identity begins to surface. Not only can he wield the Holy Light, but he also commands demonic magic. Even more shockingly, he is the founder of the "Infernal Debtors’ Association," a figure so feared by demon lords that they both dread and rely on him. Against constant threats and ambushes, Luo Wenkai relies on unmatched strength, quick wit, and cutting sarcasm to dismantle his foes, blending jaw-dropping moments with side-splitting humor.

But what truly drives Luo Wenkai? Is it simply his carefree nature, or does he harbor a grand plan to save the world? And as for Vera, the seemingly innocent noblewoman—could she be more than just a victim of the Witch Project? As the Sacred Descent Ceremony approaches and the dark races’ conspiracy takes shape, will Luo Wenkai defy the odds, carving a bloody path between gods and demons alike?
