Chapter 12 King Arthur

Merlin has become the new chief court wizard. His strange appearance and background make it impossible to associate him with the maid named "Mei". His double black face also adds an extremely mysterious look to him. Compared with Kai and Gawain, this new wizard seems to be the one closest to King Arthur.

The king's palace is open and magnificent, with tall pillars propping up the majestic dome. Light comes in from the glass windows on both sides, and shines on the red carpet all the way forward, and then up, on the stairs, Arthur is wearing A sky-blue cloak tied with a thin golden chain at the front, and the scepter he held on the day he ascended the throne was randomly placed beside his seat. The information on the exchange.

"Aside from King Luo Te, which other kings have unknown attitudes?" He asked lightly.

"The envoys you sent visited a total of thirteen kings. Some of them accepted your invitation and promised to come to your enthronement feast one and a half months later, but they clearly agreed to your alliance. Please..." The courtier below said, with cold sweat dripping from his face: "...There is no one."

"Not only that, but some of them spoke rudely." The scout was very nervous, but he had to say: "They humiliated you, and laughed at you and violently drove the messenger out of their castle."

As soon as his words fell, the atmosphere in the hall immediately became heavy. Although Yulfes on the side had expected that the situation of the kingdom might not be very good, he did not expect it to be so bad. He raised his head Glancing at Arthur, he found that the other party's face did not show the anger of being contemptuous.

Even the weird Merlin on one side was also smiling.

Just because they are not angry does not mean that other people are not angry. Knights have the duty to protect the lord. What they protect is not only the life of the king, but also their dignity.

Gao Wen came out from the side. He was wearing a slim-fitting riding outfit today, and the noble demeanor was fully revealed on his body. He first bowed and saluted, and then said: "Impossible without a A king who has expressed goodwill to you, if so, it is very likely that they already have a connection in the dark that we do not know. If this is the case, you invite them to come to the banquet, and I am afraid that it will be very dangerous on that day things."

Ulfes frowned and said, "This idea of ​​relying entirely on guesswork is not very convincing."

Gao Wen immediately retorted: "But if it is true, then our situation is extremely dangerous. We cannot put our own safety on the attitude of those unpredictable neighboring countries."

"But if we receive them with a vigilant attitude, it is very likely that we will push out the part that has the opportunity to become an ally," Yulfes argued: "Not everyone is our enemy. It is impossible for us to fight against thirteen countries at the same time, such a scene is too scary, I can't imagine how we can win..."

The two sides tried their best to refute this. Arthur could see that they were sincerely for themselves and the country. He looked at Kai: "What do you think?"

"Everything is in accordance with His Majesty's will." Kai knelt on one knee, bowed his head and replied respectfully.

"You seem to be preoccupied recently, do you need any help?" Arthur asked suddenly.

Kai didn't look up, he still said coldly: "I'm just worried about my lack of ability. I'm really not very good at politics. I disappointed His Majesty. I'm really sorry..."

Arthur rubbed his eyebrows: "I didn't mean that..."

He didn't continue to explain, he looked down, and the previous king didn't have many people left for him. Apart from Ulface who he was familiar with, there was only one Sir Brastis and Sir Baldwin. It can be very useful, once a war breaks out, he feels that there are few people on their side.

He stopped Gawain and Ulfes from arguing, stood up from the throne, looked around the crowd, and then said: "The dignity of the kingdom cannot be disdained. The reason why they despise me is because they see me as weak Bullying. Blindly shrinking back will only make them become wolfhounds gathered around the fleshy bones. If you don’t want to be swallowed up, you must show your strength and let them retreat, and even completely extinguish the desire to attack. This is the real victory. way of life."

He looked at Merlin: "Do you have any ideas?"

Merlin laughed: "Why should you be so alien, Your Majesty can just treat me as before. Since Your Majesty wants to show his strength, why don't you start with one of them? Don't forget, you just defeated King Lot The 'remnant soldiers' sent in. They have harmed your subjects, and if they use this as a reason to challenge them, that is also reasonable."

"They can also find a reason if they want to find it," Arthur said: "If they really have a connection, it is unlikely that they will not intervene in the later stage. We need other allies. Is it possible for other kings to be drawn in?"

Merlin smiled and said two names: "King Boss of Gaul and King Benwick of Benwick are both men of great valor. They are fighting for territory with another king. You can send someone to form an alliance with them. Chances are they'll agree with you."

"Okay." Arthur settled the tone with a fist, and accepted Merlin's suggestion, which meant that he would take the initiative to start a war next.After finishing today's discussion, Arthur stepped down from the throne. He began to integrate himself into several knights. I feel that I am very close to the new king. This is a wonderful feeling that I never had when I served King Uther before.

Merlin stood above alone, watching all this with a smile.Vivienne said that this king "has a strange origin and an extraordinary birth." Merlin has not yet figured out the meaning of this sentence, but he already has firm confidence that Arthur will become a great king in the future.He kind of wanted to see where he would end up...before that final fate came.

Arthur bid farewell to those enthusiastic courtiers. He and Merlin walked in the empty passage of the castle. There were some portraits of previous kings hanging on both sides of the passage. They finally stopped in front of one of them. In the painting was a A man as burly as a lion, with golden hair on his temples, eyes wide open, and his imposing manner is extremely majestic.He is the King Voltigeron mentioned by both Ulfess and Merlin before, and he is also Arthur's nominal "grandfather".

"Did you just promise him to assist the next three kings?" Arthur turned around and asked Merlin beside him.

"Yes," Merlin glanced at the former king, and there was no trace of nostalgia on his face: "He found me in the forest, paid some price, and made a vow with me, intending to use this to resist the The erosion of his country by the magic sword... I have to say that he is still a good king, but unfortunately he died suddenly, he was hit by five swords on the battlefield, and he couldn't be saved."

Arthur shook the hilt of his sword, and he noticed a word in Merlin's words: "Oath?"

"Yes, the oath." Merlin seemed to remember something, and the smile on his face widened: "That is not a rare thing. Sometimes, your words, a promise... can be regarded as a simple promise. "Oath", and if the object of the promise is of extraordinary origin, it is very likely that this oath will be extremely strict, and if it is not fulfilled, then no matter how absurd the consequences are, it is very likely to come..."

Arthur remembered the two promises he had made, and glanced at the black-haired young man next to him, and saw that he was tilting his head and looking at him with burning eyes.

Apart from the one in Wonderland, the other is the oath he made when recruiting this wizard... Arthur turned his head: "Then, when Vivienne lent a certain ancestor's magic sword, what return is she asking for?" What is it?"

Merlin, who found that he didn't tease Arthur, turned back boredly. He had an overt disgust for everything about that woman: "What else is she asking for from those nobles every year? The king back then just wanted to It was necessary to make sacrifices, so he was driven away by the people and the nobles, and he who failed to fulfill his original promise naturally became a dead soul under the sword..."

He said to Arthur seriously: "You can temporarily rely on its power, because it has had a lot of 'storage' over the years, but you can't be superstitious about its power, because no matter how much 'storage' you have, it will eventually There is an exhausting day, and when that time comes, the deposed king is your example."

Arthur pursed his lips. He listened to Merlin's advice, but unfortunately, he still couldn't do without the power of this magic sword, because he would not be able to win every battle in the next battle. , for this strange country, he must use it to kill the enemy.Arthur hoped that he was not drinking poison to quench his thirst, otherwise, he would probably become a joke in the future.

He thought of something vaguely, but before that thought took shape, it was dispelled by another thought. The former thought was about "Oath" and the latter thought was about "Magic Sword".He hasn't thought it through yet, but he already has a hunch that if he can really accomplish these two things, then he will definitely avoid considerable difficulties in the process of ruling this country.

The author has something to say: Happy Children's Day, children!

Because the editor said that having a wife and children should be classified as romance, and even those without feelings.

The author is dumbfounded.I can't understand JJ's classification method at all...

I don't know if the people who click in will go out cursing.

Forget it, I'd better code words honestly (although it's still very late today).
