I believe the correct answer is A. "I know your worth and price and my debts by no means slight I swear."

This is the only option that talks about loyalty at all - the quote says that this person knows what he is supposed to do and that he should be loyal to his master, the king. The other options have nothing to do with chivalry, so I would pick A.
