Bordeax should have been about Wil's age back then, but that's besides the point. Technically speaking, Theresia was alive back then and went into service to fight the White Whale, and she was still the Sword Saint. I'm also against gluing Wil at the end of the sentece because, even though it's true, it's gonna make shota Rein out to be top 5 strongest in the kingdom. Tappei said that "he was better than the average royal knight" but "couldn't beat those with a name" which leaves room for more than just the hadfull of strong knights we know of in the story. Think about it, Marcos and Julius are the 2nd and 3rd strongest knights respectfully, but there must also be a 4th, 5th and so on. Can they beat shota Rein? Surely they must of at least some renown. Well, the Q&A doesn't specify, so it's best we leave it as it is as we don't know if there are or were other powerful knight who could beat shota Rein. IMO the way Tappei phrased it implies there are/were.
