Camelot Dawn

Gran went back and forth countless times, and Elentari had the illusion that she went back to the time when she first set foot on Avalon more than a hundred years ago. At that time, Bertisad's boat also often went back and forth between the two banks.Bertisad, she pronounced her brother's name, these syllables were already unfamiliar, but the warm emotion in her chest was so familiar.She began to want to see his brother, knowing that he and the rest of the family—grandparents, descendants—were at rest in heaven.She already understood why death is a gift from the Creator, and now she began to envy it.Moreover, she looked down at her own reflection on the lake, her long hair had all turned silvery white, and the vitality in her body was also depleted along with the desolation of her heart.Now she doesn't care about this fairyland in the world, and she is full of thoughts about returning to the kingdom of heaven.

So when Nimovi came to Avalon again, she took the young woman's hand: "Nimuwei, are you willing to take over from me to guard the Holy Grail here?"

She originally thought that Nimuwei would flatly refuse, but after thinking for a while, she nodded for only a short while.

According to Bertisad's practice, Nimowei carried Elentari back to the land of mortals.Elentari felt more at ease than she had ever felt in her life, and the noise and strife sounded so sweet to her ears now, for she was glad to be human.She returned to the dust, breathing a warm air different from that of Avalon.

Afterwards, Nimuwei returned to Avalon, and like a reincarnation, the bronze-colored Apple Island ushered in the black-haired, young female guardian again.

Nimvey saw Elentari's loneliness, and she decided not to make that her destiny, as if she had decided to come to Avalon alive.

She said: "I accept all the people and descendants of Bertisad and Farwensha, all the people who live in their land, those good souls and extraordinary heroes, I want them to live in Ahmedabad before going to heaven. Walloon experienced a wonderful human joy."

So the gate of Avalon was opened, and the souls of people on the British Isles returned here after death.Nimvee washed their souls with the lake soaked in the Holy Grail, so that they would not dissipate; she used magic to reshape their bodies so that they could live on the island as before.It's just that she said: "My sisters and brothers, I want to tell you that your physical body can only appear on Avalon, and you will still be immortal souls when you return to the human world. However, those who are willing to return to their loved ones Yes, just go back! The Lord Jesus Christ bless you."

She added: "I can't guard the Holy Grail alone. I stay in Avalon all year round. I can't know or eliminate the coveting of it from the outside world. For this reason, I need a helper."

So she found a heroic young man among the descendants of Martona, and she brought him to Avalon as the second guard of the Holy Grail, just like Braum in those days.The duty of the second guard is to obey the orders of the first guard and his own judgment in places other than Avalon, and eliminate the forces that try to get their hands on the Holy Grail.Nimuwei said again: "Then, since I intend to reproduce the pattern of the past, I should also let the new third guard appear, because the guardian of the Holy Grail obeys the Holy Trinity; it's just that the third guard cannot be chosen arbitrarily, because Not everyone can wake up the sleeping artifact." She tried to find a suitable candidate by examining the soul, but she was unable to find it.

This work was interrupted by a conflict provoked by the druids.Through Lundia's sake, they knew that there was a pagan holy place like Avalon overseas, so they planned to drive the pagans away.Nimvey used magic to hide Avalon, and defeated Lundia and her followers alone with her advanced magic attainments.Without the support of the equally powerful magician Merlin, Lundia had no chance of turning the tables, so she went back angrily.

After this incident, Nimuwei felt very sad, because Lundia was her biological sister.She then decided to move Avalon to a place where mortals couldn't find it.

But the amount of the project was too huge, and she came up with the idea of ​​looking for helpers. "I'm looking for someone like me," she thought, "if not a seer, at least a magician."

She left Avalon and looked for suitable candidates in various places.She found many suitable talents and reshaped them into immortal bodies without geographical restrictions; she turned them into the rulers of Avalon and her own helpers.From this came the fairy on the lake and the warrior of Avalon, and Dolores came to her at this time.

After finding helpers, Nimvey and Dolores spent 30 years raising the land of Avalon above the sea level, turning a small island into a high mountain, and making the high mountain covered with grass, and building a city on the mountain .She filled the deep valley between Avalon and the British Isles with sea water, and covered the mysterious mountain with mist.Avalon became what Arthur saw later, towering into the sky, majestic and sacred, and breathtaking.Then Nimowei planted a magic circle that distorts time and space on the sea around Avalon. People she doesn't welcome will never find the legendary holy land.

As a result, the members of the Holy Grail family gradually could not find Avalon.But because of Lundia, the legend about the Holy Grail spread on the British Isle and then spread to the European continent.The work content of the second guard gradually increased. Nimuwei had changed several second guards successively, and they all came from the Martona family.

Lancelot, who also has the blood of the Holy Grail family and the Holy Cross family, the first knight of the round table, is another glorious name in the history of this ancient family.He became the adopted son of Mrs. Lake without his knowledge, and Mrs. Lake never told him that she was one of his ancestors.His son, Galahad, was the "taker of the Holy Grail" that Elentari had been waiting for all his life, and became the third guard of the Lady of the Lake.

It wasn't long after hiding Avalon that Nimvey got the news that her cousin was dying.She was amazed that even though she was now in the Blessed Land of Avalon and time never passed on her body, it didn't mean she had lost her sense of time.She knew very well that neither she nor Merlin could be considered an old man, but God wanted to take his life early at this time.

So Nimuwei decided to bring Merlin to Avalon herself.When she arrived on the land where she once lived, she already felt a little strange.She felt that she was looking at the world through a layer of fog, while Merlin was living in the world she had left.She came to the patient's bed and saw her brother was emaciated and dying.Merlin recognized her: "Long time no see, Nimuwei. Where have you been all these years? What have you been up to?"

Nimowei held his hand. "I'm building a world."

"That's it," Merlin said with a weary smile on his pale face, "I wish I could see it—where is it? Is it beautiful? Is it rich? I really want to see it."

"It's a piece of Eden." Nimuwei clenched his hand and murmured.

I want to keep this brother alive, Nimvey thought at that time, he is one of the few people with whom I have a close relationship, and in the future, everyone I know will die; I will also face Ilianta Ray's plight of loneliness.This worry overwhelmed her and made her decide to leave something for herself.So she brought Merlin back to Avalon, and made him a young, immortal body, just as she had done for Dolores and the others; and he carefully put Merlin's soul out of the body, Waiting for him to wake up again.

But she didn't expect that after waking up, Merlin didn't like everything she did. "I should have been put into a peaceful eternal sleep, but you forced me to raise me from the dead for your own selfishness. This is a kind of disobedience to nature. Would your god allow such behavior, Nimuwei?"

Nimowei was at a loss for a moment. "No—I just—"

——I just want to leave a loved one for myself.I'm just a little afraid of the strangeness, forgetfulness and indifference brought by eternal life.I just hope that after many years, when I am no longer part of this world, I can still retain some connection with it.

"Please live on in this world, Merlin, you can do many, many things." As long as I know that you are still alive in this world, I can be sure that I have not completely disconnected from it.

However, Merlin looked at her indifferently, on the restored face, the brown eyes were as inorganic as smoky crystal. "You can't. You just pulled me up, alone with you."

Then he left the wonderland where Nimuwei became a Piece of Eden without looking back, and never heard from him again.

Many years later, in order to resist the attack of the Visigoth king Alaric, the British Legion of the Roman Empire was transferred away.Merlin, who possessed extremely powerful spiritual power, began to intervene in the struggle for power. He supported a Romanized British military aristocrat whose surname was "Pendragon" to seize control of the island.

After 11 years of separatism, the Pendragon family took control of all the territories south of Hadrian's Wall, and the last Roman forces had to withdraw from Britain.The leader of the family immediately announced the founding of a country, named after his surname, with the capital at Camelot in the north of Wales.This year is called the first year of Camelot, and the subsequent kingdom calendars will be based on this year.

The shield that Joseph gave Affleck back then has been kept by the Holy Cross family for many years.After Affleck's death, he gave the shield to his eldest son, Joseph, who succeeded the throne of Salas, who happened to have the same name as his best friend.

After Joseph succeeded to the throne, he married Queen Talia and gave birth to three children, the eldest daughter Talia Jr., the eldest son Byronian and the youngest son Lorgar.Little Talia was disinherited as a daughter, but Joseph gave her the shield.After he came to the throne, Byronnian worried that the little Talia who held the shield would endanger his status, so he asked her for the shield several times, but little Talia didn't agree, which caused tension between the siblings.So little Thalia went to Gaul with her husband after her marriage.

After many years in Gaul, little Thalia heard the news that her brother Carlos was coming, and tried to look for it, but she never found it.When Carlos was found, Carlos had passed away, and she herself was already in her old age.Fortunately, Yildiko and Edgar recognized her as a relative, and when little Thalia was dying, she entrusted the shield to Edgar and closed her eyes safely.

After Edgar and Martona got married, the Shield of the Holy Cross became a symbol of their family and has been passed down.However, due to the large number of descendants, the symbol of the Holy Blood Cross was gradually not used by some families, and the large family split into many small families as it multiplied.One of these small families, however, has always kept the Shield of the Blood Cross, recasting it when it became tattered with the passage of time, and keeping the symbol alive.

In this way, by the time of Lancelot's generation, that is, the eighth generation from Affleck and Joseph, the Holy Blood Cross Shield was handed down to Princess Yilan.The Rogeris family, to which Lancelot belonged, split off and no longer used the Holy Cross.After he became independent from the family, he chose a gold rose coat of arms on a blue background at will for himself. The Holy Blood Cross left no trace on him at all, and he himself did not know the origin of his ancestors.

However, Princess Yilan passed this coat of arms to Galahad, the son of her and Lancelot, and Galahad thus became the descendant of the Holy Blood Cross family.

After he became the Third Guard, he took the shield to Avalon, where it remained forever.Time leaves no trace in Avalon, and the shield is always as clean as new, placed in the residence of the Lady of the Lake.The Holy Grail family and the Holy Blood Cross family merged into one again.

The ancient friendship born of a chance encounter has been passed down from generation to generation through the medium of invisible blood and tangible shields for hundreds of years.Joseph and Affleck would never have expected their descendants to be so connected, lying side by side in the grassy graveyard of Salas.However, it is undeniable that because of their encounter, this grand poem of later generations was able to be written.It's about Avalon without being Avalon, it's about the Grail and Blood Cross families, it's about the noble friendship of Joseph and Affleck.

"I see that you are about to bid farewell to this world, so please leave me something as a souvenir so that I can always miss you."

"Now you can look at this souvenir, which shows my respect and love for you; this respect and love will always be as fresh as it is now."

This is the poem of Avalon.

END

The author has something to say: [1] The plot about Joseph and his party arriving in Saras in this article comes from "The Death of King Arthur".However, the original text in the book is "32 years after the crucifixion of Jesus Christ". The author changed the time to the same year of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ out of the need to maintain the timeline. (In this way, the end of the Western Roman Empire at the end of the Gaul volume happened to be in AD 476 www)

So the next chapter begins the main text of the Holy Grail Scroll.Demining in advance: In the Holy Grail, there will [definitely] be Galahad, the son of Lancelot, and [possibly] Artorius Pendragon, the son of Arthur.Galahad is an important member of the Knights of the Round Table and cannot be deleted. Artorius' design is for later plot needs.But [it will not] be a mixed BG/BL, and [will not] appear things like "fraudulent marriage" that everyone slams on Weibo (囧TZ)

...But no matter how you explain it, the author feels a lot of pressure.If you can accept this setting and continue reading, I would be really grateful >

☆, old friend

In the year 231 of Camelot, the war in the former Roman Empire ended; and eight years have passed since then.Although the large-scale war won Arthur a vast territory and transformed the Pendragon Kingdom from a peaceful and wealthy small state into one of the largest powers on the continent, it also cost the entire country a heavy price.A lot of money was lost, young laborers died in battle, the countryside was barren, the cottages were empty, and many places showed a scene of depression.Therefore, once the war was over, Arthur hurriedly started to restore the vitality of the country with the help of Merlin and others.

This period of recuperation lasted for 8 years before finally bringing people's lives back on track.Although not necessarily better than before, at least it is on par with before the war.So in Camelot 239, the Knights passed a resolution to restart the martial arts tournament that had been suspended for 10 years.This congress will be held for the first time in the new capital of Gaul.

After the decision was made, various matters were prepared, and the newly built city named Camelot also became lively.

In this brand new city of gold, there is no trace of war.The city is full of people, and the sound of hawking keeps coming and going. It is difficult to find a more prosperous place in the whole kingdom than here.The morning sun shone warmly on the slate road, and the slate was a little slippery due to being stepped on too much.A brown-haired young man was leading a horse, hiding from time to time children playing on the street and carts full of goods, and looking at the scenery on both sides of the street while walking.

He could feel the more and more intense atmosphere of the upcoming event, nervousness mixed with excitement, waiting for the final moment to erupt.He saw some flags that were higher than the top of the buildings fluttering in the wind, echoing each other, and he knew that they were several arenas surrounded by the city. The flags were placed on the top of the stands, and the patterns on them were the same as the coats of arms of the Knights of the Round Table.After a little attention, he found several flags that he was familiar with.

"It's true that nothing has changed." The young man said to himself, with some unclear emotions between his brows.

The tournament will start in three days.Because there is no need for war, and because the country's finances are not allowed, there are not many new knights recruited in this tournament.But it still attracts a large number of people to attend and watch, for no other reason, even if it is a performance-based conference, most people can feast their eyes.

Before the start of the game, the Knights of the Round Table who were entrusted by Arthur to various places arrived in the capital one after another.After the war ended and Arthur and Hilarion drew up the national border, the administrative regions in the country were redefined.He divided the whole country into a dozen large regions, established their own branches of the Knights in each region, and appointed his trusted subordinates to serve as the governors of each region, commanding the Knights and governing all matters in the region.Among them, the British Isles were divided into an entire region and handed over to Sevres-Ravana, the Champagne region including Chalons was handed over to Gachris, and the Norman region in northern Gaul was given to Andreas. Rome was under the jurisdiction, and Brittany, the coastal region farthest from Camelot, was handed over to Kowen.The headquarters of the Knights of the Round Table is stationed in the Camelot region where the capital is located, and its garrison is under the full responsibility of the knight leader.

On the eve of the tournament, including them, the heroes scattered all over the place reunited in Camelot, and everyone was very excited.Arthur was also very generous, arranged for them to stay in the palace, and hosted a banquet for them.Because of the arrival of these old friends, the palace became very lively for a while. Not only did the adults feel happy, but a certain child, who had never seen so many people since he was born, was even more overjoyed.

At the dinner party, Gachris happily ran over to hook up with his friend: "Leader, your nephew is so cute."

Kai was a little surprised: "Did you see him?"

Gakhris sat down beside him and nodded: "Well, after we came, we met Her Majesty the Queen, and Her Highness Artorius followed her." He smiled again, "Little Highness Although his status is noble, he still greeted us politely, everyone likes him very much."

Kai nodded in agreement: "Indeed, his mother taught him very well."

Gakhris didn't answer, and took a sip of the wine in his glass.After a while, he spoke again, still maintaining the smiling expression just now: "I don't mean anything malicious, just asking——His Highness Artorius, how old is this year?"

Obviously the topic touched some sensitive areas, and the atmosphere between the two was no longer as relaxed as before. "Your Highness is 5 years old." Kai replied.

Gakhris showed a somewhat exaggerated expression of understanding. "Ah, so, Your Majesty—"

"I don't know either," Kay interrupted, "but I don't want to know either."

Gakhris raised his eyebrows and obediently shut his mouth.

This episode is nothing, and most people don't know about it.The next day, the tournament was held as usual, and everyone in the Knights of the Round Table returned to their respective posts to perform their duties in the event.Gao Wen, Kai and Gachlis were all ordered to participate in the competition, but they were rejected when they came to Androme.

His reason was: "The weapons I am good at using are all contraband in the tournament."

Gachris looked at him with a look of "you're kidding me": "Didn't you participate in it when you were in Scotland? Those two things are not contraband in Scotland?"

Androme waved his hand: "After all, it's been many years since I've competed with anyone with a sword. If you don't do well, you'll lose the interest of the audience. Go ahead." Gachris had no choice but to follow the other players into the arena in disappointment.

Androme, who gave up the game, leisurely became a spectator in the stands, but he didn't choose the arena where Gakhris was, after all, he was too familiar with that fighting style.Sitting on the edge of the stands of the arena with no acquaintances, the view is not good, and the sunlight is not enough, so the general Androme, who was riding a thousand horses during the war, was comfortably pretending to be in the inconspicuous corner of the summer event. Picked up the mushrooms.

——Originally, he was pulled over by Gakhris, since he was not interested in it from the beginning, what else could he do besides pretending to be mushrooms.

But not long after he stayed peacefully, a strange scene appeared on the field, which attracted his attention.I saw a knight who had just defeated his opponent standing in the center of the arena, shouting loudly: "All the knights who came to participate! Now I accept the challenge of 5 of you in turn. Those who have been defeated by me, please rest assured and continue." Participate in subsequent matches; if I am defeated, I will leave immediately!"

There was a murmur among the audience.Many people commented that this young man is really arrogant, and some people shook their fingers and said not to underestimate him, the real person does not show his face.After a while, there were people who wanted to challenge him among the rest of the contestants, and there were really five of them.The organizers of the competition didn't seem to think that this affected the order of the competition, so they let it go and opened up an empty field for them, as if they were going to fight hard.The appetite of the audience was whetted by this battle, and Androme also became interested.

The result of the challenge was beyond his expectation. The young man who initiated the challenge actually won all five games. Although he was struggling in the last game, he was still the last one standing.There was a surge of admiration and applause from the auditorium, and the exhausted winner saluted the audience with his sword leaning on the ground, and then took off his helmet.The young man had slightly long brown hair, and he tied it up for convenience, and he looked unexpectedly gentle and bookish; the expression in those warm green eyes was more subtle than what Androme had imagined. It is more youthful and immature.Obviously, although he defeated five challengers in a row, he is still just a young man.

"My name is Percival Isera," the brown-haired young man said loudly, "Please tell everyone you know. At this time in three days, I will challenge the current Knights of the Round Table on the court."

The tone is not small.Androme watched coldly from the shadows in the stands, the sweat on the young man's face glistening in the sun.

That day‖Androme waited until the end of the last match before leaving the arena. Except for the episode caused by the young man named Percival-Isera, there were no bright spots in the contest that day.When Androme returned to the palace, a servant came to meet him as soon as he entered, told him that "other lords" had already started dinner, and took him to the dining room.Pushing open the door of the dining room, sure enough the knights who were closer to Arthur were there. Gachris greeted him first, and Androme responded, and walked to him and sat down very naturally.

As soon as he sat down, Kai asked him: "Didn't you not participate in the competition, why did you come back later than us?"

Androme said: "Looked a little longer, delayed."

Kai shrugged: "I don't think there's anything to see, you won't look at it all day." After speaking, he put the cut piece of food into his mouth.

Androme nodded: "Indeed." He took a sip of the wine, put down the glass and said, "But it's interesting to meet a young man today." Then he told Percival-Isera and what he had done What happened to the other three people was roughly described.

After listening to his description, Gachris frowned slightly and repeated: "Percival? I always feel something weird."

"It's 'Ysera'," Gao Wen, who had been silent all this time, spoke at this moment. He sat directly opposite Androme, and said nonchalantly, "This surname sounds familiar."

Kai didn't seem to agree with this, but Gachris thought about it for a while, then nodded heavily: "Yes, I think so too."

"He said he would challenge the current Knights of the Round Table in the final," Androme interjected at this time, "If you two feel interested, you can challenge."

"Good idea," Gakhris said cheerfully, "if that's the case, I'll go and fight him twice."

Three days later, the tournament entered the final stage, and all the best knights of the round table played, and the enthusiasm of the audience was very high.According to the rules, Percival should have also entered the finals, but at this time everyone's attention is on the elites of the Knights, and no one cares about an unknown junior, so on the field that day, he was not heard. A little news.Although Gao Wen was as curious as his younger brother, he couldn't take care of that much at this time. He was busy putting on his armor and putting on his armor to bring a wonderful performance to the audience.

While Gao Wen was waiting outside the arena, another contestant in armor rode up to him. "Lord Gowen-Anthiros," the man said abruptly, with a gentle voice, "I am Percival Ysera, and I have admired you for a long time. If you win the next competition, you can accept My challenge?"

This is the young man that Androme mentioned that day!Gao Wen tried to see something from him calmly, but the other party was wearing full armor and a mask, so he couldn't see any appearance characteristics at all; familiar memory.But he still agreed to the young man's request and promised to compete with him after he defeated the opponent arranged in the competition.

Next, after just the right amount of time, Kowen defeated his final opponent, a fellow Knight of the Round Table.If you look at it as a performance, the match between the two is perfect, climactic and exciting, but also graceful and dignified, both winners and losers.Although this kind of game is full of appreciation, but after enjoying it for a long time in the past few days, the audience in the stands is somewhat fatigued, and the applause is not as enthusiastic as before.

At this time, Percival entered through the door on one side of the arena, the horse under his lap was walking briskly, and the blue-and-white-tree pennant on the spear fluttered one by one.He stopped the horse beautifully on the right side of the field, forming perfect symmetry with Kowen on the left.He touched his heart with his right hand on the horse, and saluted the audience gracefully. His crisp appearance was like a gust of relaxing wind blowing into the arena, which instantly woke up some drowsy audience.

Then he said in the same clear and high voice as that day: "I am Percival Ysera, and I am here to fulfill the promise I made three days ago. Knight Corvain-Anthiros of the Knights of the Round Table," he said from his body. Untied the spear, pointed at the opposite side, revealing a youthful spirit of pointing the country, "I will challenge you."

Gao Wen couldn't help feeling that his emotions were also mobilized, and he also untied his spear as a sign of accepting the challenge.There was another round of applause in the auditorium, which seemed to be more enthusiastic than the previous one.

The match between the two officially started with the approval of the referee.Both Gao Wen and Percival put on a ready-to-go posture, and then rushed towards each other at the same time in a certain tacit understanding.

The competition was intense, and during the interval between the fights, Gao Wen straight to the point expressed his doubts about the opponent's identity.Percival's panting voice came from behind the mask: "I thought you would remember me, Lord Gaowen."

"I'm really sorry." Gao Wen said indifferently.

The other party seemed to smile, but Gao Wen couldn't hear clearly because of the two masks.The young man on the opposite side raised his sword, which signaled the end of the brief conversation. "You are my savior. If it weren't for you, I would have been killed by Tristan in Scotland." After speaking, he rushed over with his sword.

Corwain deflected his attack while mentally trying to piece together what he had heard: Scotland, Tristan, young man with brown hair - his last name was "Ysera" -

Some fragmentary images began to connect into a complete picture, the picture began to make sounds, and the memories that had been blurred with time began to appear and recover little by little.

Under the violent impact, the young man's saber dropped from his hand, drawing a shining arc in the air.The sound of metal falling to the ground was like a final hammer, ending the audience's feeling of despair.Gao Wen's sword pointed at the opponent's throat, and in the brief silence before the applause, the opponent's voice came to his ears clearly: "Have you remembered, Lord Gao Wen?"

There was warm applause from the audience.Gao Wen sheathed his sword amid applause and took off his helmet; the young man opposite him also took off his helmet.Only then did Gao Wen finally see his face, brown, long hair, warm green eyes with a humble expression. The fire in Rome eight years ago had long since been extinguished, and the young attendant who once disappeared like a evaporator appeared in front of him again.

"Roland Ysera." When the two shook hands and made peace, Gao Wen whispered his past name.

"Now you are a knight."

After the game, Cowen and Lancelot's former squire - who should be called Percival by now - had a lot to talk about.Percival told Gao Wen the whole process of Lancelot conferring on him, and showed him the lion medal that has been kept as a token; he also said the reason why he left Camelot. The knight he served died and he had to leave.When he said this, he was very relaxed, as if the past did not become his burden.

Of course, Gao Wen thought, it is probably impossible for a person to carry a burden for so long. Eight years is long enough. Even though everyone had a deep friendship with Lancelot in the past, they all felt extremely sad when they heard the bad news after the fire in Rome. Something Lancelot was involved in.The feelings about Lancelot were pushed back by these more "realistic" events, and gradually became less intense.

People say "time heals everything", but they actually mean that the continuous emergence of new things will inevitably dilute people's impressions of old things, and naturally dilute and numb people's feelings for old things.No one is exempt from this, Gao Wen knew, so when he saw Arthur's son Artorius, he was far less surprised than Gachris, and his reaction was not as intense as Gachris.He knew that for Arthur, the real responsibility of being a king must be far more important than the irreparable personal feelings.And one of human nature is to like new things more than old things, and to like the feeling of missing it more than the old things themselves.

That being the case, Percival came to Camelot to look for him this time, probably because he had something to ask of him.Gao Wen quickly came to such a conclusion, but he still asked: "Are you planning to join the Knights of the Round Table when you come back this time, Percival?"

Sure enough, Percival nodded: "Yes, that's why I participated in the tournament. It's a pity that I lost to you in the final." He smiled a little embarrassedly.

Gao Wen didn't join him in laughing to ease the atmosphere: "As far as I know, your origin is not noble."

"Yes, I know," Percival didn't show embarrassment, but smiled, "but I thought about it carefully, didn't the captain say, 'The chief knight doesn't have a crown or a scepter, but only a sword and a scepter? Faith? If I perform well in the tournament, even if I am not an aristocrat, I may not have no chance at all. When I come back next year, after another year of training, I may be able to succeed .”

Seeing him talking to himself innocently, Gao Wen couldn't help but feel for a moment that the boy who was once under the protection of Lancelot had come back to life. "You seem obsessed with it. But it doesn't have to be a round table if you're going to make a living?" And the round table isn't a place to make a living, he thought.

Percival was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, you misunderstood. I must join the Knights of the Round Table, not because of livelihood issues, but because only here, maybe there is hope of seeing you again."

Gao Wen was really taken aback, his frozen lake-like expression finally showed some fluctuations, and he asked incredulously, "How is it possible?"

Percival said: "You should also have the impression that the seat on the round table farthest from His Majesty is reserved for those who are rumored to be able to find the Holy Grail.
