The knights sense the dismissal of your armor as an opportunity to strike, however... you slash the palm of your hand with your sword, before rapidly using the blood on your sword to carve a rune circle around you. "Ath nGabla." You say the name of the rune as it glows a soft red. "From now on, you are all duty-bound to do battle with me in single combat." You reveal the purpose of the rune, and the knights have no choice but to follow the powerful enchantment held within the runes that Touko taught you. Already, you've killed almost a third of the knights, but without challenging them one on one, you never would've had a chance of victory.
