"Roar--!!!"
The shadow of the Red Dragon appeared behind Arthur as the sword was drawn out.
The domineering scales, fangs, wings, and the roar that seemed to vibrate in people's hearts, everything seemed real.
In people's eyes, there is no doubt that it is more credible than Merlin's prophecy, and it is the symbol of Britain's guardian red dragon.
In just a few minutes, the rumor that 'the new King Arthur has been recognized by the guardian Red Dragon and has been protected' has spread.
Only Arthur was very calm.
He knew very well that the thing that looked like a red lizard on the back was neither a symbol nor a blessing. It's just a strange thing that Morgan added to his DNA. In his own words, there are no special effects for birds. Apart from the cool light and shadow effects, they can only roar and bark to add a bit of style.
Is this thing very powerful?
Haha, I'm envious, I exchanged my life for it.
But to be honest, functionality aside, Morgan's special effects are quite useful in this situation. If you convert the loyalty of the people around you into a numerical value, it should be 5 before drawing the sword. Then after drawing the sword, the value that should be between 30-40 is directly increased to 50 due to the special effects.
The effect was so significant that Arthur was a little surprised.
In fact, Arthur underestimated his own potential. Ninety percent of the people present at this moment had more than 80 loyalty points when converted into numerical values. Even if there are fanatics with full loyalty, it is not impossible. As for how many strange emotions are mixed with that loyalty, it is unknown.
For example, the group of girls closest to Arthur, the young women with nosebleeds, and the noble knights with abnormally flushed faces, made the atmosphere suddenly weird.
Drawing the sword, there was no doubt that he succeeded.
It even successfully made Arthur feel unreal, but the system did not give any prompts.
It was barely expected, but still somewhat disappointing.
"Sure enough, to draw the sword and be crowned the king, you not only have to draw the sword of choice, but you also have to go to Camelot to officially crown the king."
One task, two conditions, and one reward are a bit confusing.
It's a pity that no matter how much Arthur complains, it's useless. This system is very cold, and there is nothing except a character panel. The panel is also very blurry, only showing talents and weapons. Other than that, no matter what Arthur tried, the system would not respond.
Therefore, in Arthur's opinion, the system mission rewards are the kind of free gains. It's good to get them, but there's nothing you can do if you can't get them. You still have to rely on yourself.
At this time, the contest between the two great magicians also came to an end.
With a burst of brilliant brilliance, countless beautiful petals flew and then withered.
Merlin and Morgan each retreated behind Arturia and Arthur, which not only represented their respective positions, but also signaled a declaration of war.
"Hmph! Annoying trash, you are just as disgusting as your magic, full of lies."
"Oh, I'd rather you describe it as 'as beautiful and dreamy as flowers'." Merlin responded with a frivolous smile.
At this point, you can still laugh?
Is that enough of a plan to take Morgan into his own hands?
Of course not.
That's because of Merlin's nature. As a half-incubus, he is this kind of creature. Even if he has half human blood, he is still an inhuman thing. The son of an incubus never gets bogged down by emotion, because there is nothing superfluous about it in the first place.
Everything in his eyes was cold matter.
No matter if someone wants to kill him or if someone dies in front of him, there won't be any fluctuation in his heart.
Everything is a phenomenon that has happened, is happening, and is about to happen. Just like his behavior all the time, he helped people and the kingdom, but he only provided some help. In fact, it was never him who made the decisions and judgments.
For example, in the case of Artoria.
Born as a red dragon, his destiny is to be the ideal king.
Is it related to Merlin?
Yes and no. Maybe he was the one who made everything happen, but he just provided the information, and it was King Uther who made the choice. Later, he taught Arturia, also following the will of King Uther. Therefore, even if this kingdom collapses and everyone is bound to be miserable, Merlin will not feel any shame or guilt.
He has been a witness and outsider from beginning to end, but he has only provided some small help to make people mistakenly think he is great.
No! Strictly speaking, if we look at everything Merlin does separately and be a little more rational, in the end we can only come to the only answer no matter what, he is a genuine sage.
Thinking of this, Arthur suddenly realized.
If changes are not made, Merlin will not belong in Camelot even if he stays in Britain and helps from time to time. I have decided that my kingdom does not need this kind of thing.
"Great Magician Merlin, I have witnessed your power. Now, you should be able to stop."
Of course we can't let it go.
"Ah, it's true. A prince suddenly appeared, but I haven't heard of it at all. In fact, despite looking at me like this, my relationship with the late King Uther is quite close."
"My identity will naturally be proven by someone, so you don't need to worry about it. Merlin, you should take care of yourself. It's because you are always like this that my father doesn't entrust everything to you."
"Haha, I don't care. The more important thing now is not you, Arthur Pendragon."
Sure enough, Merlin's counterattack came.
Arthur looked at Artoria.
Regardless of the will, the center of the conflict will be concentrated on him and the other party no matter what.
Although the identity and situation have been rationalized to the maximum extent, the fact that the other party has been cultivated to this day with the goal of becoming the ideal king cannot be erased.
You know, the current Artoria is not the Quilt King in Arthur's memory, who completed her own story in Gladiolus Hill, was completely broken inside, and placed her hopes on external things, hoping to come back again.
At this moment, Artoria is a red dragon, the king of ideals, the most confident, and the one who firmly believes that what she does is definitely correct.
"I…"
Artoria looked around confusedly, and finally her eyes rested on Morgan.
She had never heard of Arthur. But Morgan was different. The Enchantress's reputation had already spread throughout Britain, and even the Saxons, who were enemies, also had a certain fear of her.
The other party is almost the embodiment of malice, conspiracy, uncleanness and ominousness. Then Arthur, who is supported by Morgan, must also be a conspiracy.
Are you going to leave Britain to that kind of person?
Absolutely not!
"I am Artorias Pendragon, son of Uther. It has never been heard that I have a brother named Arthur."
