Arthur is in love!
Merlin felt a bit like he was dreaming. Arthur, the straight-faced man, actually fell in love with a woman at first sight! More importantly, for this girl, Arthur did not hesitate to evade his responsibilities. He gave up his original responsibilities. He evaded inspections and banquets just to have a tryst with the girl.
This is very un-Arthur.
However, Merlin thought it wasn't bad.
No one can live without falling in love. Merlin felt that Arthur's behavior was normal, at least more normal than before.
Of course, what Merlin should be thinking about right now is how to get through the current hurdle.
Well, now let’s talk about Merlin’s situation.
Didn't I say before that Arthur has been busy dating recently and completely forgotten his responsibilities. So the question is, why didn't King Uther break Arthur's leg?
The answer is as usual, Arthur has a blame-shifting weapon - Merlin!
In the past three days, Merlin had used his poor performance to take the responsibility of Arthur's missing various activities on himself... So Merlin also set a record, being dragged to the square to throw fruit for three consecutive days...
On the other side, Morgana is different again. She is very scared now!
Because she recognized the woman brought back by Arthur! He recognized her the first time he saw her! She is the woman who often appears in Morgana's dreams! The woman who drowned Arthur in the lake!
There are no words to describe the shock in Morgana's heart at that time! This woman actually appeared in front of him alive!
Morgana was very scared at first, afraid that there was something wrong with her. But the fear soon passed. She had always thought that her dream was a omen. Now the omen has come true. The woman is really here, which means... her dream is very likely to come true! Arthur will drown!
Now Morgana is even more worried about Arthur.
Morgana tried her best to warn Arthur to stay away from that woman. Unfortunately, Arthur didn't pay attention to Morgana's various hidden warnings. He even didn't hear Morgana's deep meaning at all. He thought that this was It was his sister teasing him again.
As Arthur himself often said, Morgana often thought he was a fool.
I won’t be fooled!
In short, Morgana was almost dying of anxiety. Morgana even ended her cold war with King Uther and went to find King Uther herself, hoping that he could intervene in Arthur's blind love. But King Uther didn't think so either.
Of course King Uther would not allow his son to marry a down-and-out noble woman. (The two people rescued by Arthur claimed to be nobles from the north. Because their homes were invaded by barbarians, they planned to go south to join Carlyon's relatives, so they were nobles in decline)
Arthur is the prince of Camelot, the heir to the most powerful kingdom among all the countries. His marriage is not just his own business, but an activity of great political significance. Marrying with another powerful country is Asia's most important thing. Se's destination.
But falling in love is not within the scope of King Uther's consideration. In King Uther's opinion, it would be good for Arthur to have a love relationship. As long as they don't get married, King Uther won't care. Besides, Arthur is already twenty years old and he is still the first brother. Do you think King Uther is not worried?
Just in time!
Anyway, King Uther is confident that he will be able to break up these two people in the end. As for what Arthur will do before that, King Uther really doesn't care. Anyway, Arthur can't suffer...
Typical gangster logic, but this is exactly what King Uther thinks.
Morgana was very anxious, and she tried to warn the woman to put away all her inappropriate thoughts. But the effect was very bad. The woman didn't take Morgana seriously at all, and even ridiculed Morgana, thinking that she stopped them from being together out of jealousy.
This made Morgana feel both embarrassed and extremely annoyed. She is a woman, so she can naturally tell what a woman is thinking. When she warned the woman named Sophia, the woman only had contempt and frivolity in her eyes, and there was no love for Arthur at all!
She is using Arthur, Morgana is sure, and will definitely kill Arthur, and Morgana is also sure. After all, the dream is there.
At this moment, Morgana even wanted to publish her dream, hoping to alert the two male chauvinists, King Uther and Arthur! Unfortunately, Morgana knew that this wouldn't work. She could not care about herself, but she couldn't care about Kai.
Once she gets involved with magic, what will Kai do? She didn't want Kai to be stuck choosing between her and Uther. So she was particularly helpless now, and she could only talk to Gaius. Gaius was also at a loss, even though he knew Morgana was a prophet.
Gaius has observed this for many years, and Morgana's dream predictions are very accurate.
But even so, Gaius couldn't use Morgana's words to target the father and daughter. How should he explain it to King Uther and others?
More importantly, how to explain it to Arthur?
Gaius thought about it for a long time and suddenly thought of something. He asked: "How many days has Kai been away?"
Morgana thought for a while and replied: "It's already the twenty-eighth day."
Then she reacted. "You mean, let Kai handle this?"
"That's right! Kai will be back in the next two days. Once he comes back, everything will be easy to talk about." Gaius said with certainty.
Morgana is now full of energy! That’s right, if others don’t believe her, Kai will definitely believe her!
Thinking of this, Morgana immediately sent someone to find Kai. Calculating the time, Kai should be on his way back. All she had to do was get Kai back as soon as possible!
…
Just as Morgana was expecting Kai to come back as soon as possible to break the situation, the father and daughter on the other side were also impatient.
"Come back so soon? Sophia." The father of the father and daughter called himself Alfred. He is an elegant old man. Although he seems to be in his early years, he moves neatly and powerfully, not at all like a six-year-old. A ten year old man.
"Someone is hindering us." At this time, Sophia no longer looked naive and innocent in front of Arthur, but was very cold and arrogant.
"what happened?"
"I almost died. At that moment, I felt like I was going to die like a mortal." It turned out that during today's appointment, they happened to meet several soldiers who were searching for the Druids. One of the soldiers Because he didn't see clearly, he thought the two fateful lovers were druids, so he shot an arrow and almost hit Sophia.
"He saved me." What I'm talking about here is Arthur. At that time, Arthur pushed Sophia aside so that Sophia didn't get hit by the arrow. Unfortunately, Sophia was not grateful at all. "That weakling saved me! I can't stand this situation anymore."
Alfred comforted softly: "You don't have to endure it anymore. When you get his heart, the door of Avalon will be opened to us again, and we will regain our true bodies."
"I need a moment." Sofia nodded.
"Very good, I will go to the elder today. It is best to sacrifice this mortal prince tomorrow night."
…
That night, Arthur ran out to go on a date with Sophia as always, and Merlin also helped Arthur as always. But when Merlin returned to Gaius and learned part of the truth, he felt bad. He actually sent Arthur into a trap!
To make up for his mistake, Merlin tracked Elfrek under the command of Gaius.
As a result, he learned an even more terrifying fact. The Alfreds and their daughters are not human beings at all. They are elves who have come to the land of immortal youth, an ideal land far away from the world, the paradise in the other world, and the home of elves - Avalon. They were imprisoned for committing a major crime. Drive out of Avalon and live as a human until death.
If they want to return to Avalon, they must sacrifice the soul of a mortal prince. And Arthur is their target!
Now the problem becomes serious!
They have to stop this from happening.
Unfortunately, things developed far faster than they expected.
The very next morning, Arthur took Sophia and his daughter to meet King Uther.
"At the request of the people, I came here to discuss important matters with you, father." Arthur faced King Arthur with a very solemn attitude all morning.
King Uther was a little confused.
Arthur continued: "I think you should also notice that Miss Sophia Timmer and I have been very close in the past two days."
Of course King Uther noticed it, otherwise do you really think Merlin can fool King Uther about this kind of thing?
"I hope we don't get so close." This sentence was considered a joke. King Uther didn't mind what happened between Arthur and Sophia, but he would never allow Arthur to do something more outrageous. For example, telling the public about their relationship.
Arthur hesitated for a while, then said firmly: "We are in love."
"I sincerely request you to agree to our marriage!"
King Uther was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed.
"Hahahahahaha." King Uther still hoped that this matter could be attributed to a joke. "That's the funniest joke I've heard this morning. Well, well, how am I supposed to respond to your childishness, my son?"
"No, it's not a child's play. I sincerely hope to marry her." Unfortunately, it backfired.
…
Now King Uther was completely out of control. He thought Arthur was just playing for fun, but turned out to be serious? Morgana on the side was even more shocked. Morgana could still accept falling in love, but getting married? They had only known each other for three days! When did this idiot Arthur become such a romantic?
King Uther naturally couldn't agree, but unfortunately Arthur had no idea what he was doing at this time. So the two became stubborn.
Arthur declared that it was none of his business whether King Uther agreed or not.
After saying that, regardless of King Uther's fuming anger, he grabbed Sophia and prepared to leave.
King Uther immediately ordered the arrest of Sophia and her daughter, and Arthur also fought against them.
"You can't stop me! If I want to marry her, I will!"
But at this moment, a majestic voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Oh? Really?"
It's Kai!
I saw Kai Feng walked in from the main entrance of the hall.
"Our Arthur has grown up, and he actually knows how to openly oppose the king's orders in the king's palace."
Kai first saluted King Uther, then smiled and took off his cloak under Morgana's concerned eyes. Originally, the maid planned to take over Kai's cloak, but Morgana took over the cloak one step ahead.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Kai smiled and hugged Morgana.
Then he turned to look at Arthur, whose expression was changing. Kai said expressionlessly: "Kneel!" (kneel down)
Arthur's face struggled a little, but when Kai's eyes became dangerous, Arthur still knelt down on one knee. Past experiences told him that it was best to be obedient at this time. Otherwise, the end will be very tragic. Even Sophia's charm cannot suppress this conditioned reflex.
Seeing Arthur kneel down, Kai's face became much better.
"Very good, this shows that you are not completely dizzy yet." Then he said to King Uther: "Let the guards hold him down. I'm afraid he will be a little excited later."
Although King Uther absolutely trusts Kai, he is still a little confused at this moment. He had never seen Kai treat Arthur like this. Arthur will definitely become king in the future. Kai pays great attention to all these things. Even if he punishes him, he will not humiliate Arthur so much. But now...
However, out of his long-standing trust, King Uther did as he was told.
Only then did Kai turn to Sophia and his daughter.
"Kneel!"
