The knight in the big world of American TV series

Chapter 103 A Woman's Challenge (For Collection, Recommendation)
Soon a short figure walked in from the door of the hall. He was wearing chain armor and knight half armor, with a helmet on his head, and the long sword in his hand was still dripping blood. It was obvious that he had cut someone just now.Behind him, there were still some guards timidly following him, not daring to step forward.

The guards can't help it. Today is New Year's Eve. According to tradition, this day may be the most peaceful day of the year for the Celts. Even duels between knights will be moved to the next day, so the defense of the palace is not enough. Strict, many guards have gone home for the New Year's Eve.

There are not many guards staying in the palace on duty, and this man dressed as a knight is really fast, every sword will definitely hurt someone, and those soldiers who blocked him were cut down before they could make a move.

There are few people, and you can't beat them. Can the guards not be afraid?

That person completely ignored the unfriendly gazes in front of him and behind him, but swaggered towards the seat where the king was sitting.Kai and Arthur stood up immediately. The difference was that Kai's eyes were calm and his face was expressionless, while Arthur's face was fierce, and he looked at the approaching person unkindly.

Seeing Arthur and Kai's obstruction, the man didn't move forward, but directly took off his iron gloves and threw them in front of Arthur.

Everyone in the hall was stunned, what are they doing?Ran to the palace on New Year's Eve, first beheaded people, and then adjusted the crown prince?This is going crazy.

Now Lian Kai's complexion is not good-looking, originally today was a good day, but in the end it was disturbed like this.As a Huaxia person, I have always attached great importance to this kind of reunion festival. In Huaxia, even the most ignorant people know it, but there is no right and wrong in the New Year.

Arthur couldn't bear it anymore, mother, whose face are you hitting?

So when I saw the iron gloves at my feet, I bent down to pick them up without any hesitation.But just as he bent down, Kay stopped him.

"Give me a reason, a reason why you can survive, otherwise, I don't mind hanging your head on the city gate on New Year's Eve." This guy is obviously here for Arthur, and Kai is not stupid, Naturally, it is impossible for him to succeed.Besides, with the behavior of this person just now, no one will say anything if Kai draws his sword and cuts him down.

The man turned his head to look at Kai, took off his helmet without saying a word.

The moment the helmet was taken off, a head of beautiful blond hair spread out like a waterfall. This blond hair was so beautiful that under the candlelight, it actually looked radiant.After the man raised his head, everyone gasped.

It's not because of how scary he looks, on the contrary she looks extremely beautiful!
Yes, that's her!
a woman!
This woman is very beautiful, with big eyes and dark brown pupils. Although the lines of her face are not so soft, this does not affect her beauty, on the contrary, it also gives her a kind of heroism that is rarely seen in women.

Seeing this woman, Kai's heart skipped a beat. Her appearance made Kai think of a person who shouldn't be alive anymore.King Uther and Gaius felt the same way as Kai. King Uther looked at Gaius, wanting to get an answer from him.But Gaius was still in shock and did not respond to King Uther at all.

But Morgana was not shocked by them, she just felt that this woman gave her a close feeling, as if she had seen her before.

"Are you afraid of a woman?" said the woman, and finally she looked at Arthur.The meaning is obvious.

"I accept your challenge!"

"No! Arthur!"

Before Kaigen could stop him, Arthur accepted the challenge. This woman's approach was very simple and clumsy, but the problem was that Arthur could not be indifferent, otherwise everyone would know the next day that their prince was actually afraid of a woman's challenge.In this kind of society where women are inferior to men, this kind of accusation is absolutely fatal, and it is more likely to accompany Arthur for the rest of his life.

"I must accept the challenge!" Arthur said to Kai very seriously, and then stooped resolutely to pick up the woman's iron gauntlet. "Since I'm about to duel with you, please tell me your true identity."

"My name is Morgoth!" said the woman, "Tomorrow at noon, see you there!"

After finishing speaking, the woman didn't care about other people, so she turned her head and left.

……

Mogauss' challenge shocked everyone, but it also felt complicated.In this kingdom of knights, no woman would ever challenge a knight.It is also considered dishonorable for a knight to fight a woman.

Some of the people present at the time felt that it was too childish for Arthur to accept the challenge, while others felt that since someone initiated the challenge, he had to accept it, and that woman was very skilled.Why can't he initiate a challenge, let the prince avoid fighting a woman?That was more humiliating than accepting the challenge.

In short, no one can convince anyone.

As for the interior of the royal family, the controversy is even greater.

Neither King Uther nor Kai wanted Arthur to accept the challenge, but the problem was that in the Code of Knights, as long as he accepted the challenge, he had to execute it. It was never said that women were not allowed to challenge.At least the Grand Maester hadn't seen a similar event in nearly 300 years of records, and Arthur disagreed with canceling the challenge.

On the contrary, I feel that the attitude of King Uther and Kai is too strange, they actually let him avoid a woman!This is ridiculous!He felt that the two of them just treated him like a child and didn't trust himself at all, not even believing that he could beat a woman.

In the end, the three broke up unhappy, and Arthur left angrily, saying that the duel would definitely take place.

Kai and King Uther looked at each other.

"Although I don't want to say it, but... I always have a bad feeling." Kai said helplessly.

King Uther didn't speak. He could understand Kai's feelings, because his premonition was stronger.Although he wasn't sure whether his previous worries were correct, but... All in all, there was nothing he could do now, unless he completely disregarded Camelot's face and now secretly killed Morgos.

It's a pity that this woman is too smart, she stayed in the palace without leaving, and King Uther even had to arrange a place for her.As long as she was in the palace, not only could King Uther not hurt her, but he had to arrange people to protect her, so that nothing wrong could happen, otherwise Camelot's face would be ruined.

……

The next day, the duel took place as scheduled.Originally, the aftermath of the Knights Conference hadn't passed yet, but now Arthur accepted the challenge again, and it was a challenge from a woman. People in the whole city had seen this kind of thing before, so the duel field was even more lively than the finals that day.

It's a pity that such a lively duel turned out to be a mess in the end.

Arthur lost.

This was beyond everyone's expectations. That woman's martial arts are very good, which is indisputable, but it would be a shame to say that she is really better than Arthur. Arthur's martial arts have been fully demonstrated at the Knights Conference .As the closest knight to the title of champion knight after Kay, Arthur's ability has been recognized by most people.

But Arthur still lost.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Arthur had a lot of worries, and his moves were not decisive enough. In the duel, Arthur knocked down Morgoth's long sword three times!But every time Morgoth refused to admit defeat, Arthur was forced by the spirit of chivalry and could only allow her to take up the sword and fight again.

Her swordsmanship was similar to that of Gawain, she took the light and agile route, and her moves were treacherous. If it wasn't for the disadvantage in strength, perhaps Arthur would not have knocked down the long sword in her hand so easily.Finally, she caught Arthur's hesitation, and pressed the long sword against Arthur's chest.

She made a deal with Arthur with Arthur's life. She made Arthur swear to accept one of her challenges three days later. Any challenge, as long as he completes the challenge, Arthur will be considered to have fulfilled the oath.

Arthur could only swear on his own name and agreed to the challenge.

This decision made King Uther furious. King Uther thought that Morgoth had other plans, but Arthur didn't believe it, because if the woman really wanted his life, she could take his life in a duel.

In short, despite the persuasion of King Uther and Kai, Arthur insisted on fulfilling the oath.
