Lords of Camelot

A month later, the biggest scandal since the establishment of King Arthur's court occurred. The Lord of Camelot had an affair with Princess Guinevere, and the two had an affair, and Guinevere was even pregnant.

King Arthur was going to burn the two men at the stake according to the court order, but at the request of the Knights of the Round Table, the kindhearted King Arthur changed the punishment to flogging, and considering that Guinevere was pregnant, the punishment she had to bear would be borne by Davian alone.

The executioner will be Gawain, the Knight of the Sun, and Davitt will have to walk from the main gate of Camelot to the gate of the palace to atone for his sins of infidelity and adultery.

The people of Camelot were in disbelief. They could hardly imagine that the great and kind lord would do such a thing. But now that it had happened, they could only believe it.

The day of execution soon arrived, and on that day Davian went to the main gate of Camelot. Looking at the main gate, Davian couldn't help but feel mixed emotions in his heart. How fast these days...

His hands were now tied with heavy chains, and the golden laurel crown as the Lord of Camelot was still on his head. However, when this punishment was over, he would hand over the crown as a punishment for himself.

At the same time, he was only wearing a pair of trousers, with bare feet and bare upper body. All of this was to punish him, to punish him for being unfaithful to the king and even committing adultery with the princess.

After finishing his reflections, Davian turned around and handed the whip in his hand to Gawain. Gawain's face showed no joy or sadness, but Davian felt that he seemed to be gritting his teeth and enduring it all.

Because he knew the truth, or rather, everyone who was qualified to sit at the round table knew the truth. Arthur could tolerate the common people or those ordinary knights and princes not knowing the truth, but everyone at the round table had to know it, because Arthur could not tolerate Davian's image in their hearts being shattered.

"Don't show mercy later, or you'll tarnish your reputation as the Sun Knight. I heard that you can even collect debts carefully and meticulously, so don't let your efforts fall by the wayside now."

Even at this moment, Davian was still joking with Gawain. But Gawain wanted to throw away the whip in his hand to show that he couldn't do it. How could he punish Davian?

Now he wanted to rush back and stab his mother. How could she have been allowed to take advantage of this opportunity? He had to make his beloved Lord Davian suffer such an unjust accusation and such a humiliating punishment.

Davian smiled, then patted him on the shoulder and said to him with a smile: "Don't worry, even with all these things, we are still friends."

After that, Davian turned around, and Gawain gritted his teeth and swung the whip in his hand. This was a symbol of the beginning of everything, and Davian would walk this journey with increasingly deep pain.

Severe pain climbed up Davian's head. He had never suffered such an injury since his debut. But he still gritted his teeth and took big steps forward. This was what he had to do.

Every five steps...it should have been ten steps, but because he had to bear the punishment that Guinevere had to bear, it became five steps. Gawain would swing the whip accurately and hit Davian's back. Davian's back was soon torn, but Davian did not wail, he just endured, just endured...

The crowd around them was originally quite calm, but under the manipulation of some people, their emotions were gradually provoked. Now the soldiers in charge of guarding them took a lot of effort to calm them down again. Only then did they realize that even in Camelot, these people still did not change much.

"Damn it, I can't stand it! How can I let my father suffer like this!" Mordred threw away his once calm and composed attitude at this moment. He put his hand on the sword and wished he could go out and draw the sword to save people right now.

However, Gareth hugged him, and Mordred, who had always respected his sister, was suddenly unable to use any strength.

"You can't go! If you go, then it will be your fault! This matter will come to an end when your father finishes his sentence. If you go now, it will only make things go in a more uncontrollable direction."

But let alone the younger generation, even the peers can hardly hold back now. Lancelot is a typical example. He clenched the hilt of his sword and just took a step forward. Tristan blocked him, and just when Lancelot wanted to take another step forward, the invisible thread had entangled him, preventing him from moving forward.

"Like Davian said, you just won't stand by and do nothing. So he asked me to keep an eye on you to prevent you from causing any real trouble."

Lancelot wanted to take action, but when he heard that this was arranged by Davian, he recalled the conversation with Tristan. At this moment, he could only sigh and ask: "Is this the pain that must be borne? Is this responsibility? Even if I have been wronged so unjustly, do I have to bear the responsibility of the Lord of Camelot until the last moment?"

"Until he takes off that crown, he is the Lord of Camelot. He will protect the king's reputation and the continued operation of this country. If sacrificing his reputation and accepting such a punishment can end this matter, then he will do it."

Tristan looked at Lancelot and said these words, and at this moment Lancelot finally chose to be patient.

Arthur's attention was focused on Merlin's face. He had never seen Merlin look so painful before. But this expression was normal. With his and Merlin's hearing, they could easily hear the sound of the whip hitting Davian's back.

Merlin felt that every swing seemed to hit her heart. At this moment, she felt like she was about to break...

David's back was no longer recognizable as a human being. The severe pain made his nerves numb. But fortunately, he was about to reach the end.

He seemed to be able to see the expression on Merlin's face. It was almost time, almost time...

Finally, when he came to Arthur, he knelt on the ground and spoke the words of atonement to Arthur himself. Arthur also said to forgive him and Guinevere, because Davian had been punished. In front of all the people of Camelot, he had been punished in a way that normal people could not imagine.

After completing all this, Davian fell down helplessly. Merlin ran over like lightning and hugged him. The blood on Davian's body stained her sleeves. At this moment, Merlin's spirit suffered an extremely huge shock.

Tears could not stop falling from her eyes. At this moment, Merlin felt that his nature could no longer be suppressed. Anger appeared on her face for the first time, and she raised her hand directly to Guinevere who was not far away!

The invisible pressure pressed on Guinevere's neck, and she suddenly couldn't breathe. She knew that Merlin was really angry, but what could she do? If she was asked to atone for her sin with her life, Guinevere would be willing to do so.
