Before listening to Balthazar's story about the Battle of the Sword Parade and the Fall of Camelot, Salomon had never imagined that Merlin's prank could be so bad. After hearing that history, his mood became even worse. But he still can't get involved in the affairs of the Merlin School at will. Although Kama Taj is a government agency in the magical world, it can't take care of everything. Before other schools do things that endanger the world and violate the law, Kama Taj His attitude has always been laissez-faire.
So far, Balthazar can still deal with the magicians of the Morgan Le Fay faction. Those magicians are not particularly powerful characters. Moreover, the magicians of the Morgan Le Fay faction are even more abiding by the rules set by Karma Taj than Balthazar and Dave, because they have never exposed the secrets of magic in front of ordinary people-until Balthazar told Salomon, Hoffas was the one who turned all the cars on the street into taxis.
Then they can be arrested and imprisoned for a few days. After the arrest, they can be asked whether these magicians of the Morgan Le Fay faction have committed any acts of killing innocent people indiscriminately. Under the influence of magic, no one can lie. Kama Taj will punish them accordingly for their actions, from warning and education to detention, from life imprisonment to death penalty, they will all be tried according to the law.
Salomon plans to return to Karma Taj and submit a report. After all, he cannot rely on him alone to capture the magician of the Morgan Le Fay faction. He needs to inform the Temple Deacon about the situation here, and the Temple Deacon will make arrangements. The mystic who currently has no mission is going to arrest him.
As for the Supreme Mage, Salomon planned to explain the general situation first, because after that, the temple deacon would also hand over a detailed report to the Supreme Master, so he didn't need to waste any more words. When Salomon submitted the situation of the Merlin School at the New York Temple and returned to the Kama Taj headquarters, intending to mention the matter to the Supreme Mage, he saw the Supreme Master holding a small piece of white cotton. Use the warm water in the tea cup to wipe the blood on your fist and hanging ring.
Who is so unlucky as to be punched by the Supreme Mage? Salomon walked over, took the cotton cloth, and helped the Venerable clean up the blood stains. Seemingly sensing Salomon's curiosity, the Supreme Mage did not conceal his itinerary or the name of the unlucky guy.
"I went to Wales and entered Avalon from there." The Venerable took out a dark red apple out of thin air, and Salomon could smell the sweet fruit fragrance even if he didn't get close to it. The Supreme Mage stuffed the apple into Salomon's arms, and she said, "This is the specialty of the Apple Island of Avalon. As for the unlucky guy you guessed, he is actually Merlin."
"You and Merlin had a fight?" Salomon was so surprised that he stopped what he was doing, "Why?"
"What Merlin has done is excessive enough." His Holiness said, "From the time of Camelot to now, I have not forgiven that guy. Moreover, I have found you as the heir, so naturally I want to get my things back. , By the way, that guy can’t fight back, I’m the king.”
"You mean...Holy Sword?"
"Yes, the Holy Sword," the Supreme Mage spread her hands after cleaning up the blood, and an applewood wooden box inlaid with silver vine patterns appeared in her hands. The Supreme Mage placed the wooden box on the table, pushed it in front of Salomon, and motioned for his disciple to open it. Salomon put down the cotton cloth in his hand, opened the closed brass lock, and slowly opened the wooden box, revealing the holy sword inside.
This sword is not a man-made weapon, but a weapon forged by the incarnation of this planet, the Mother Earth Goddess Gaia. It is an artifact used to protect this planet. It is a powerful treasure that stands at the apex of this world. Anyone can see The first time I saw this sword, I was shocked by its beauty and nobility. It has the unique arc-shaped sword grid of Celtic swords. This golden sword grid is about four inches wide, the widest part of the sword body is about two inches, and the length of the sword body is about three feet. The tenon of the sword is inlaid with conspicuous and gorgeous blue enamel decoration, and the hilt can be held with two hands. Salomon could not tell what kind of metal the sword was made of. The golden sword grid was not as soft as gold. The cold sword body actually felt hot when touched.
The Supreme Mage seemed satisfied with Salomon's shocked expression. She picked up the holy sword, waved it casually a few times, and then stuffed it into Salomon's hand. The mystic took the holy sword very carefully. He felt that the sword was very suitable for his hand. Under the instruction of the venerable, Salomon injected some magic power, making the sword burst out with extremely bright golden light.
"Thor has a powerful hammer, so you of equal status should also have a powerful holy sword." The venerable said, "But because this sword is too powerful, it also has corresponding restrictions. But I think this is a good thing, I don’t want you to become a guy like Thor who only thinks with a hammer.”
"Restrictions?" Salomon had never heard of such a thing. Facing the disciples' questions, His Holiness answered them very patiently.
"There are thirteen seals in total. As long as the conditions are met, the seal will be released. And every time you release a restraint, the power of this sword will be stronger. As long as you can meet half of the conditions for releasing the restraint, this sword will The power will be maximized." The venerable expression suddenly became a little serious, "I have always been worried about whether Odin will keep his promise, but as long as you take this sword, Odin will have to keep his promise, because this When the power of the Holy Sword is maximized, it can even cut the stars. Even if Odin refuses to keep his promise, you can still negotiate with Asgard when facing the threat of the Bifrost."
Salomon fell silent. He heard the Venerable talk about her agreement with Odin. Because Odin was afraid that the Supreme Mage would use force against Asgard after his death, the Venerable would put down his responsibilities first before Odin and follow the Eternal God. But in turn, the Supreme Mage would use force against Asgard after his death. The mage is also worried that Odin will not abide by the agreement and wants to forcibly conquer the earth after she leaves and continue Asgard's authority. Therefore, the Supreme Mage handed over the title and the sword to Salomon. The purpose was to shock Asgard and remind Odin that Kamathaj could not protect him in front of Asgard after she left. Earth, but Kamal Taj has the ability to destroy Asgard. If the agreement is not abided by, both the Earth and the Aesir pantheon will suffer a lose-lose outcome.
"However, before the restraint is released, this sword is already powerful enough. As long as your magic power is enough, this sword can exert a power that is not inferior to Gangnir and Thor's Hammer." The Supreme Mage touched it gently. Touched Salomon's hair, "I believe you will use this sword in the right place. I have always trusted you, Salomon. But I'm sorry that I asked you to bear this kind of responsibility that you shouldn't have to bear." responsibility."
"I don't think you need to be sorry, teacher, on the contrary, I am very happy." Salomon said with a smile, "Because you let me know what I should do, and I am very grateful to you. If you had not adopted Me, I might starve to death or freeze to death. Even if I survive, I might fall into madness because of that knowledge, or live aimlessly in the world. I'm glad that I can have a goal, even if it's not I ordered it myself.”
"This is your life, but I still hope you have something of your own." The Supreme Mage motioned to Salomon to put the holy sword into the wooden box, because it is not yet time for the sword to be released. The Venerable said, "Although I think the age gap between you and Bayonetta is a bit big, as long as you like it, I won't object, because it is your own feeling. When do you plan to have children?"
Salomon did not expect that His Holiness's topics would jump so quickly. One second he was discussing life and death, and the next second he jumped to family matters. The Mystic Mage's face was full of embarrassment. He didn't know if elders all over the world had the habit of urging marriage. He reasoned that he and Bayonetta had not officially confirmed their relationship yet, and he was a little too anxious to consider such a thing now. What's more, Besides, he's still a high school student.
But His Holiness believed that at Salomon’s age, where he could hold a weapon and go on the battlefield, he should give this matter serious consideration. Although Bayonetta and Salomon will live much longer than ordinary people, the Lord does not want to hold their child for a hundred years. The Supreme Mage also said that it would not be a big deal if it really takes a hundred years. She can still help take care of the children by then, because she has accumulated a lot of experience when raising Salomon. When Salomon is not able to When he had complete control over his body's muscles, His Holiness was also the one who helped change the diapers.
Salomon fled.
"Teacher!" After a while, Salomon came back again, but this time he didn't even dare to show up from behind the door. He asked loudly, "What should we do about the school of Merlin?"
"Let the deacons from the New York Temple lead the group. You can also participate if you have time."
