The thing we fight in the actual Sword Route game is literally the Shadow Mantle being controlled by the voice talking to Kris. The sprite is just the mantle itself, the "ears" are the high collar on the cape.
It summons FRIENDs and the Shadow Mantle was in Seam's possession before someone took it. Both of which can tie back to The Knight/Dess.
There's text suggesting Seam may have belonged to Dess before. Asriel has a drawing of him, and Dess has "frayed yarn and buttons" in her room. FRIEND may in fact be styled after Seam. A form it took either to appeal to Dess or from her own subconcious desire to have something comforting in the Dark.
The voice in the Sword Route games acts very familiar with Kris. It is personal and implies it knows what Kris really is like. And when the fight ends, it specifically says "we BOTH have work to do!"
If it's just FRIEND or some new character, what is that work? If it's the Knight, the answer is obvious: the fake fight that's about to happen.
I haven't heard anything that could outright stop it from being the Knight. Everything about the situation can be explained as Dess/The Knight fucking with Kris then giving them a handicap for their next fight when they prove they still have passion for violent games. A handicap that makes you more likely to get to the point of the fight where the Shadow Crystal can be gotten, at which point the fight immediately ends.
