Soul Knight Prequel: How to Unlock 3 Hidden NPCs (Alchemist, Priest & Paladin)

Soul Knight Prequel is a lot like different RPGs in the sense that NPCs are going to be important to the game. Most of the NPCs that are important are already going to be ready for you in the village or are eventually going to be unlocked as the story progressed.

However, there are three hidden NPCs that won’t be available to you unless you know how to unlock them.

Luckily for you, we have an easy guide that will allow you to unlock the Alchemist, Priest, and Paladin NPCs.

How to Unlock 3 Hidden NPCs

Alchemist

1. To unlock the alchemist, the first thing you need to do is to unlock the Forest of Tranquility.
2. The alchemist would require you to have three items that you can get in certain places in the game.
   • Cherry – Southern Steppes
   • Blue Milkcap – Crystal Mines
   • Pumpkin – Forest of Tranquility
3. Once you have all three of those items, go to the Level 150 map of the Forest of Tranquility, where you will find a camp.
4. In the camp, you will find an NPC named Bacchus, who will require you to give all of the three items you collected above.
5. After giving him all of the items, he will return with you to the village.

The Alchemist is one of the best NPCs you can use in the game because he will give you the option to craft juices. For example, the orange juice gives you a stat boost.

But the best juice is the green one because it increases the drop chances of certain cards for 900 seconds or 15 minutes.

The green juice is perfect for farming.

Priest

1. In the upper right part of the town map, you will find a cat. You can actually attack animals in town in this game, but cats are considered special and “sacred.”
2. Attacking the cat will actually kill you because the cat will always beat you no matter how strong you are.
3. After getting killed by the cat in the village, you just need to press on the X.
4. The priest NPC will revive you and will now be unlocked.

Out of all of the hidden NPCs in the game, the Priest NPC is the easiest to unlock because all you need to do is to get killed by the cat in the village.

Paladin

1. The first thing you need to do to unlock the paladin is to unlock the Priest NPC (see above) because their stories are intertwined.
2. After unlocking the priest NPC, go to the Ruined Citadel, where you will eventually run into the paladin in the third stage.
3. The Priest and the Paladin will have a conversation. Just allow the conversation to progress without doing anything on your part.
4. Eventually, the Paladin will join the village because the priest will take him back.

That’s all you need to know about unlocking 3 hidden NPCs in this Soul Knight Prequel. Unlocking them is quite easy, and the only one that may seem challenging is the alchemist NPC. But the alchemist should be the most worth it out of all of the hidden NPCs.
