Ian reached out and tidied Morgan's hair, which he hadn't had the energy to comb because of his illness.

“That’s the future I most desire.”

"Oh, then according to what you said, do you understand what I am thinking now?"

"of course."

Ian pulled Morgan into his arms, stroking her back gently.

"You're not convinced, are you?"

"You are not willing to see things turn out this way - I know all that."

"..."

Morgan's hands trembled on Ian's arms, finally gradually scratching them directly with his fingers.

It was a silent catharsis.

Ian bit his lip and endured it all in silence.

After a few minutes, Morgan finally calmed down.

She snuggled in Ian's arms and whispered:

"Does it hurt?"

"It hurts, but I don't mind." Ian comforted Morgan.

"My Lady Princess, if you wish, I can kill those knights who are ignorant of the world and think they can become the new king."

"No, that's not necessary."

Morgan's fingers gently gestured his name on Ian's chest.

"They won't succeed."

"Ian, just like you said, I still can't accept this."

"Then will you stand by me as always?"

"My Lady Princess, I think I have stressed this many times. You don't need to ask for my opinion. I will always stand with you."

"But I want to hear you say it again."

Morgan hugged Ian's waist and buried his head in his chest.

"You do not want it?"

Ian did not hesitate, he spoke directly:

"My Lady Princess, whether in the past, present, or future that we have yet to touch, I will always stand by your side."

"Then offer me your loyalty."

Morgan looked up at Ian with moist eyes.

"I want more children who can be trained to become knights."

"With great pleasure, Princess."

【You and Morgan have more children.】

[Gahoris and Aguiwen were born one after another. ]

[Like Gawain, with the blessing of magic, they also have talents beyond the reach of ordinary people and a growth rate beyond imagination. ]

【Influenced by the atmosphere of the legend, you did not hold a grand banquet for them.】

[But you and Morgan still took care of them with the best conditions, allowing Gawain to treat them as brothers.]

[Soon, his younger sister Gareth was born.]

[You train these children to the highest standards of knighthood—and all this is for Morgan.]

[You find that the legend of the red dragon seems to have no other effect except making the knights more impetuous.]

[You feel like this might be the bluff of the magician you’ve never met.]

[Until this day, a man with silver hair appeared under the city wall. ]

[That's the feeling of someone coming with bad intentions. ]

57. The Magician Named Merlin

"stop!"

Silver halberds crisscrossed beneath the city gate.

When the sunlight shines on it, a pure white afterglow glows on its body.

The guards stopped the unkempt silver-haired man in front of them.

"Who are you?! What do you want?!"

Facing the guards' questioning, the silver-haired man was not nervous at all.

"Merlin."

"Or you can call me something else. I don't really care about names."

"..."

The soldiers looked at each other.

It was obvious that they did not know the name Merlin - at least not yet.

Naturally, they would not have any impression of the man in front of them.

And Merlin didn't mind.

He sat on a rock nearby, looking relaxed and at ease.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know. It's useless anyway."

"Go and call someone who can take care of things. I want to talk to him."

[Although Merlin in front of me has a nonchalant feeling, his words are inexplicably touching. ]

[Even these two ordinary guards could sense that something was a little off.]

【They began to divide the work and cooperate.】

[One person continued to guard Merlin, while the other ran towards the city.]

[Soon, another figure appeared at the city gate.]

[That is Gawain—a man whose status in the city is second only to you and Morgan.]

"Lord Gawain, this is the man."

The guard led the way in front, pointing to where Merlin was.

"..."

Gawain said nothing - he was silently observing Merlin in front of him.

He is sloppy, unkempt, and has an inexplicable frivolity in his behavior.

Every point hit the unbearable point for Gawain, who held himself to the highest standards of chivalry.

To be fair.

If it weren't for the many restrictions of being a knight, he felt that he might have drawn his sword and stabbed this guy.

but--

Gawain did not forget everything he needed to obey as a knight.

The sword cannot be swung at others casually.

Because that would only make the right to speak a subsidiary of the strong and the weak.

He didn't want to see this happen.

Gawain calmed himself down and prepared to make a tentative contact with Merlin.

"Hello, I am……"

But before the knight could announce his name, Merlin took the initiative with a smile on his face.

"You're Gawain, right?"

"you?"

Gawain was a little surprised - after all, he had never met the person in front of him before.

But Merlin continued to maintain the same look as before.

"Gawain, the magical blessing upon you is indeed very powerful."

"But it's a pity. It's not you I want to see. If possible, could you please make a little more trip?"

"..."

Gawain's mentality gradually changed from slight disgust to caution.

Merlin in front of him knew his name and the blessing from his mother Morgan as if he had prophesied in such a short time when they first met.

This is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.

"so--"

"Do you want to see Father and Mother?"

"No." Merlin shook his head. "Just to see your father."

"But he's busy," Gawain answered truthfully.

"It's okay." Merlin smiled.

"Just tell him the name of Artorius—and he will come to see me."

"..."

[Gawain felt that Merlin in front of him was no ordinary person.]

He realized that this was a message that had to be delivered to you.

[After confirming the name he was going to pass on to you again, he crossed the streets of Camelot and came to you. ]

[According to Merlin's instructions, he told you the name "Artorius".]

[You realize that this man is the magician who has been secretly interfering with your and Morgan's plans.]

[You temporarily entrust the matters at hand to Gao Wen. ]

【You decide to go and meet Merlin. 】

"Lord Ian!"

Ian's arrival made the guards at the city gate nervous.

"Let him in."

"Yes!"

"Thank you so much."

Merlin came to Ian and looked very grateful.

"Lot King Ian, without you, I probably wouldn't be able to enter the city."

"..."

"Stop talking nonsense." Ian said with a tense face, "Let me know your purpose."

"Let's go somewhere else and talk." Merlin smiled gently.

"Where do you want to go?"

"There."

[Merlin didn't just point to a random place.]

[That is on the city wall.]
