[Comprehensive] Enkidu

Arthur was indeed consciously exercising Gawain's political ability.

His sister Wang was very talented in dealing with him, but not very talented in politics. Gao Wen had been raised by her for so many years, but she had never received the orthodox education of an heir.

Even if Arthur didn't intend to pass on the throne to Gawain, as a good uncle, he still had to let Gawain get the orthodox education that should belong to him.

"Remember to take all these files back. The next assessment will be about the contents of the files."

King Arthur put down stacks of heavy parchment on the desk, and circled the important points inside from time to time.

Gao Wen, who was originally smiling, almost couldn't maintain such a relaxed expression.

"Wang, do you usually need to learn so many things?"

King Arthur didn't raise his head, and the movements of drawing lines were skillful and smooth. It was obvious that he had to flip through it countless times before he could clearly understand any content inside.

"It's more than that. I have to deal with affairs in various places, but it's too early for you."

Speaking of which, the period when he first became king was indeed very difficult. In domestic affairs, Morgan's powerful faction caused strong oppression to him. In foreign affairs, it was difficult to implement the system, and there were also foreign countries that were eyeing tigers and were ready to invade Britain at any time.

Under such circumstances, even with Mr. Merlin's teachings in his dreams for several years, he was not sure that he could change such a complicated situation. Thanks to Enkidu's company and advice, he gradually changed the consequences of Britain's decline.

"I think after a while, after you are familiar with these, I will gradually let you learn how to handle government affairs."

Now is a relatively peaceful age, there is no need to rush everything, Gao Wen only needs to learn slowly, and it is enough to slowly understand the meaning of kingship.

In the past, because there was no other way, Arthur worked so hard to balance both aspects. If he hadn't had strong willpower and Enkidu helped him share some of the tedious things, he might have fallen on the desk long ago without Sister Wang's harm.

"I will complete the task you entrusted to me, but you should not be too tired."

On the one hand, Gao Wen was extremely satisfied and proud of Arthur's trust in him. On the other hand, after hearing that Wang's workload was more terrifying than imagined, he was worried about Wang's health.

"I don't think it's hard. But Gao Wenqing, thank you for your concern."

Facing this nephew who was also his companion day and night, Arthur tilted his head slightly and flashed a warm smile.

He really loves this country.

Growing up in the countryside when he was young, he liked the horses roaming freely; he liked the quiet forest that accompanied him every time he practiced sword; he liked the rustic warmth given to him by the villagers.After becoming a king, this kind of love precipitated into a broader tolerance, and everyone's smiling face became a reason to support him to continue on.

Even if he knew that the final outcome of Britain was destruction.

He will also try his best to let the end of Britain fall into a peaceful sleep, without tears of grief, without wailing in pain, this is enough.

Holding the dossier that was about to bury his face, Gawain walked towards the room where he lived again in the castle.

Arthur had given him a lot of tasks recently, and it was inconvenient for Gao Wen to leave the royal city with so many important documents. These days, he was handling work in his room.

He never went home after quarreling with his mother, and Gawain still felt a little awkward every time he went back to his room, but nothing could compare to King Arthur's recognition of him.

Thinking about Wang's assessment of him for a few days, Gao Wen's flaming joy was poured over with cold water. Wang's assessment of him was by no means simple. It would be better for him to study hard tonight. It seems that he can't exercise his love cooking.

Suddenly there was a force rushing towards him.

Gao Wen sensitively protected the precious sheepskin scroll sideways. After seeing who was coming, the half-unsheathed sword in the other hand was pushed back into the scabbard again.

"I thought the enemy was attacking, but it turned out to be Mordred. I'm sorry that there are too many things in my hand blocking your way."

With hearty laughter, Gawain watched his seemingly strange colleagues gradually disappear, and a strange emotion slowly rose from the bottom of his heart.

Although he felt that Mordred didn't bump into him intentionally, but the other person's appearance was really not quite right. Mordred was naturally withdrawn and had no relationship with the other Knights of the Round Table. Even so, Gawain, who was not very careful, still noticed abnormal.

"I'm going to see the king, do you know where he is?"

The originally hoarse voice became even deeper, and Mordred didn't look at Gawain. He was very tired, as if he had tried his best to fight a sleepless night, and his spirit was greatly damaged.

"Wang should still be in the study now." Gao Wen paused for a moment, and asked a little worriedly, "Your condition is very bad, I think you need to take a good rest, or see a doctor."

"I'm fine."

He refrained from looking in the direction of those items that symbolized King Arthur's value, and the corner of his mouth under the helmet raised a sarcasm. Mordred didn't need the care of this glorious brother at all, which would make him feel too sad and ironic .

Gao Wen's complexion changed due to the relentless killing intent, and he suddenly regretted that he had announced the king's whereabouts so easily.

"Wait, I don't think it is suitable for you to meet the king now."

Gawain's tone became serious. He carefully studied Mordred's expression. Since the armor blocked most of his sight, he couldn't see the expression on the face under the helmet.

However, the inexplicable killing intent that made his hair stand on end disappeared along with Mordred's cold laughter.

"Sorry, I killed too many people a few days ago, and I regard you as an enemy."

Mordred pushed away Gawain's body and strode towards the king's study.

At this time, the night was approaching. After receiving the candle handed over by the knight, Wang unfolded the documents and reviewed the affairs of various places. There was not much work in the near future, so he must be able to fall asleep late at night.

As the name of Camelot's mysterious city of the end spread, there were gradually many non-human residents in the city. Enkidu has been busy with their arrangements recently, and he doesn't often appear by Arthur's side recently.

This is an activity that friends enjoy, and Arthur doesn't stop it.

Wang pressed the center of his eyebrows, took a sip of the steaming hot drink, and did not stop the pen in his hand.Before I could write a complete sentence, I suddenly heard a regular knock on the door outside.

"Knight Mordred, the king is dealing with political affairs now, so it is inconvenient to see you."

The knight beside him opened the door and answered the person who knocked on the door. When he heard that the person who knocked was Mordred, he gently put down his pen.

"I have something important to report to the king."

"But......"

"Let him in."

It happened that Arthur needed to have a good talk with Mordred. Looking at the knight who was trying to protect him, the king said:

"Go back and rest first. I don't need you to look after me at night. I will rest after I finish talking with Lord Mordred."

After the knight left quietly, Arthur tidied up the messy desk while asking questions.

"Is there a problem?"

The dim candlelight faintly lit up the room that was completely in the dark, and also lit up Mordred's silver armor. The raised lights were like fireworks, burning blazingly on the young and vigorous body.

Mordred removed his helm, revealing his true face.

The handsome face of the young man made the originally dark room bright and bright, but Arthur couldn't speak a word.

It was a face that was almost the same as his, as if he could see a young King Arthur who was still young a few years ago.

"turn out to be......"

Arthur finally understood why Mordred never took off his helmet.

"I am your son, the continuation of your bloodline, and your orthodox heir."

Taking off the helmet that concealed infidelity, the knight respectfully knelt on one knee, waiting for the king's answer.

This is not the scene of father and son meeting in Mordred's imagination.

He hoped to be recognized by the king dignifiedly in the blessings of everyone, so he became the tip of the king's sword and wiped out all the filth for the king, but as long as he got his approval, it didn't matter even if he couldn't get the throne.

Even if it was false, he would still be happy for it. If it could prove that he was not nothing, he would be willing to be the shadow behind King Arthur and silently accept the future ruled by Gawain.

King Arthur's eyes couldn't help fluctuating because of intense emotions. He remembered the only injury and bleeding in Camelot, and the abnormality of Camelot afterwards, and he had a terrible guess.

"Sister Wang...I underestimated your hatred for me."

Mordred looked at the obvious wry smile on Wang's face, and bursts of panic surrounded him for no reason.

"I can't admit you."

For Mordred, those were the cruelest words he had ever heard in his life.

After showing a wry smile, Wang finally recovered his composure. He must protect the child in front of him, and he must not let the world know his unreasonable life experience.

But King Arthur didn't understand, his clear eyes stared at Mordred, it was no less than a painful Ling Chi, the mouth was bitter, the heart was bitter, the blood was bitter, there was no place to find peace, shouting Questioning the king who seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Why...

Obviously he didn't expect too much anymore, as long as Arthur could look back at him, he would be satisfied that the two could get along like a normal father and son.But Arthur would rather give love to his nephew than to his son with the same blood.

He begged for all this like a dog, it was too ridiculous.

[Since you can't give it, then I will destroy everything. 】

The country you love, your people, your friends, everything you own will be destroyed under the sword.

Presumably King Arthur, who was weeping bitterly at that time, could deeply understand what kind of mood Mordred is now fighting for these things that should belong to him that could not be grasped and disappeared in his palm.

king arthur...

This is your punishment for abandoning me.

The author has something to say: Arthur: Give you enough work so you can't murder me with your cooking skills.

Gao Wen: ...

Arthur couldn't admit to Mordred, this is an established fact.As the blood of Morgan and Arthur, he is equivalent to a sibling or something. If Mordred is not harmed, he can only do so, as if nothing happened.
