Religious vows were added to the Oath of Fealty for the purpose of making the agreement between the King and the knight even stronger. In this case, violation of the oath meant the knight was jeopardizing his soul by not fulfilling his loyalty in any way to his overlord.

Religious vows were added to the feudal oath taken by a knight to signify their commitment to uphold Christian values and principles in their conduct as warriors. It also served to emphasize the spiritual aspect of their chivalric duties and obligations.

What does 'bishop protects knight mean?

"Bishop protects knight" suggests that the knight is on the diagonal of one of its bishops. This simply means that the knight could not be taken without then putting the attacking piece into the bishop's path. The bishop isn't actually "protecting" the knight, however; if the knight can be legally taken, then the question becomes, "Is my attacking piece worth more or less than the knight?" If, for example, I'm threatening that knight (3 points) with a pawn (1 point), then I don't care if the bishop is protecting it, because even if the bishop takes my pawn after taking that knight, I'll still be 2 points up in material after the exchange.
