King Uther sighed deeply.
"She is my daughter after all... How can I bear to let her cry like this?"
[Although he is the King of Britain, King Uther still has his own emotions. 】
[You realize that everything Morgan did may have been seen by him.]
【But as a father, he allowed all this to happen. 】
"I will hold the front line until the last moment."
King Uther handed his scabbard to Ian.
"I think you are someone worthy of trust."
"In the years ahead, I will entrust my daughter to you."

August is coming, please help me with props! (Crazy hint)
15. The Knight of Sin
[You took the scabbard of King Uther, and he allowed you to put the blade back into the scabbard that he had lifted up with his bare hands.]
[You have acquired the innate knight spirit; King Uther recognized you and you once again became a knight. You swear to King Uther that you will use everything you have to protect Morgan.]
【King Uther does not doubt what you say.】
[He has witnessed your loyalty. Your willingness to sacrifice your life for Morgan made him realize that you would never betray Morgan.]
[After paying respects, you left King Uther’s presence.]
[Morgan is waiting for you outside. She was a little surprised when she saw that you were not in chains.]
[As her most loyal knight, you did not hide anything from her. ]
[You told her King Uther's understanding of this war, and also told her what King Uther thought of her.]
"..."
Morgan bit his lower lip.
After a long while, she asked in a trembling voice, "Ian, is this true? Father...did he say that?"
Ian knew exactly how Morgan felt at the moment.
But as her most loyal knight, he would not allow himself to lie to her.
"Yes, my lady, that is what the king says about you."
"..."
Morgan's beautiful face became distorted in an instant - anyone would have such an expression if their father said that.
Ian could see the reluctance in Morgan's heart.
But as a knight, he didn't know what to do.
"Ian..." Morgan barely managed to control the situation, "Do you think so now?"
"Do not."
Ian denied it without any hesitation.
"My Lady Princess, no matter what I hear, in my heart, you are still the most suitable king for Britain."
"..."
Morgan turned away.
"Ian, you are such a fool."
[In the next few days, Morgan did not summon you again.]
[At King Uther's suggestion, you, who were supposed to be a war criminal, were released and allowed to walk freely in the military camp like a knight.]
[This made the other knights very surprised, and they began to speculate on the reason why King Uther did this.]
[Finally, they came to a conclusion: As a minion of the White Dragon, you were intimidated by King Uther's dignity and were willing to join the British army.]
[This is undoubtedly very good news - the King of Britain can even frighten the minions of the White Dragon. The outcome of the war is already clear.]
[But you who know everything, understand that this war has completely gone in another direction since the moment it started. ]
[But when you think about the ending and it may have nothing to do with Morgan, you find that you don’t care about what happens next. ]
[It's just that there are some sins that you know you must pay for. ]
in the military camp.
The knights were talking among themselves.
"Hey, do you know what that madman under Vortigern is doing?"
"I don't know... but it looks very wrong. I don't know why the king released such a person."
"Shh... stop talking so much."
Just as the knights were discussing, Ian was carving words on a huge stone - those were all the British knights he had killed in the war.
of course.
He was not as powerful as King Uther, who could remember all their names.
When I meet someone who I only have vague memories of, I can only use some symbols as a substitute.
Ian knew that this would not change anything, but as the culprit, he couldn't just ignore it.
【Persistence often leads to respect.】
[Your act of carving your name on the stone slab is gradually accepted by the knights, and they realize that you may be recording something.]
[The talent affinity · evil has been replaced with affinity · perseverance: your persistence day after day has made the knights more or less accept you, and they begin to regard you as one of the British knights. ]
[They asked if you needed help, but you very politely declined.]
【Mourning is a person’s inner responsibility.】
[You don't want others to be tainted with this sin because of you. ]
[During the day, you carved stone tablets, expressing your apologies to every innocent knight who died, and begging them to vent their hatred for Morgan on themselves.]
[At night, you followed King Uther's orders and stayed in front of Morgan's tent without moving.]
[You understand all of Morgan's pain, so you never disturb her, but only protect her in the most loyal way. ]
[The minions of the gifted white dragon have been lost: you have shown such loyalty that no British knight will ever consider you to be a subordinate of Vortigern.]
[Rumors began to spread in the military camp that you, once a minion of the White Dragon, had been completely defeated by the princess. You neither confirmed nor denied this.]
[After all, you know that you have indeed fallen under Morgan's spell and become her most loyal knight. ]
【King Uther's ultimatum was still issued.】
[As the princess, Morgan has been ordered by him in the most severe tone to withdraw from the front line and return to the royal court, and you will serve as Morgan's guard along the way. ]
[This surprised the knights greatly—after all, Morgan was so brave and good at fighting.]
[But no one dared to question the king's order, as that would be a heinous crime.]
"Princess, please be careful."
Ian respectfully helped Morgan sit on the horse, and only after she was completely safe did he ride on the other horse.
As the knights watched, the two men left the front line of the British battle line.
Horse hooves rise and fall.
Leaving footprints on the road.
Ian, who knew Morgan's mood well, didn't say anything along the way.
He just quietly paved the way for the princess he was loyal to.
They crossed streams, cut through thorns, and spent day and night one after another.
The two of them passed through the woods, leaving footprints of the knight and the princess on the windblown grassland.
Afterwards, Ian, who was riding a horse in the front row, looked into the distance from the top of the mountain.
He turned around and said respectfully to Morgan:
"My Lady Princess, if we walk a little further, we can return to the capital."
"You will be in the safest possible protection there."
However, Morgan showed a hesitant expression at this time.
Ian noticed this but said nothing.
He still remembered what Morgan had said - the knight should only know what the princess allowed him to know.
After a long silence, Morgan finally spoke.
She held the reins and spoke in a slightly sad tone:
"Ian."
"Can we... not go back yet?"
16. Lake where the princess was born
[You confirmed that you heard Morgan correctly.]
[She did express to you her intention not to return to the royal court for the time being, and her attitude was quite cautious.]
You realize that she is worried that her request would violate King Uther's order to return to the capital.
【You decide to reassure her. 】
"Okay, Princess." Ian took the reins of the horse.
"Then don't go back for now."
"Will this be a problem?" Morgan asked cautiously.
"It'll be fine," Ian replied as gently as possible.
"If there's any problem—"
Ian patted the horse beneath him.
"Just say they are too tired."
Morgan knew that the man in front of him would never deceive her.
She nodded.
"Let's go then, Ian."
"Okay, my lady."
[You temporarily delayed your plan to return to the royal court with Morgan.]
[You know that this is disobeying King Uther's order.]
【But you know Morgan's current mood better. 】
[You can't bear to see her return to the royal court in such a depressed state. You know that would be very painful for her.]
[You and Morgan have strayed from your original path.]
[You two came to a forest, and a clear lake appeared in front of you. ]
"Ian."
Morgan pulled the reins in her hands, causing the horse under her to stop.
