Knights of England

The Knights of England, in the past known as the Rod knights or Dual-axe knights, are one of the three main powers of England alongside the Royalty and the British Puritans (Necessarius). Thier mission is to maintain the status quo between the three main powers. The Knights and the Puritans, however, bear some grudge towards each other. The Knights do not like or accept that the Purtians have gained as much power as them when they were originally created and used as a political tool to defy the Roman Catholic Church. The techniques of the Knights are said to be inherited from the crusaders of the tenth century which attacked the middle east. These techniques have defeated a large amount of believers of other religions since ancient times. Their power is considered even great enough to cause an island to disappear from the map.

Ursula Aquinas Rescue Arc
When Necessarius decided to assist the Roman Catholic Church in retrieving Ursula Aquinas and The Book of the Law back from the Amakusa Catholics the Archbishop Laura requested the knights assistance in dealing with the Amakusa. Due to their history the knights did not wish to take orders from the church and thought of how simple it would be for them to wipe out the Amakusa. Twenty-one knights, using a sea current manipulation magic spell handed down by St. Blaise, swan from England to Japan. As soon as the Knights arrived to Japan and began walking up on one of its beaches they were quickly attacked and defeated by Kanzaki Kaori, former leader of the Amakusa Catholics.
