...Could it be Tōsaka Tokiomi?

Are there time travelers from different eras in the Camelot Empire?

Alvin's eyes flickered, and soon an amused look appeared on his face.

If it's true that there's not just the Clock Tower, but also time travelers from other eras...that would be interesting.

"Do you have any other questions? If not, I have to leave. The queen doesn't particularly trust me right now. If I'm out of the palace for too long, she might become suspicious."

At this moment, Merlin's voice brought Alvin back to reality.

"Do you have any news from Morgan?" Alvin asked.

Merlin showed a helpless expression and said, "Clairvoyance isn't omnipotent. You know her level of magic... If she deliberately wanted to hide, no one would be able to find her."

Morgan le Fay, she is the true successor to the British 'Lord of the Isle' and the evil side of the Lady of the Lake. In the entire Camelot Empire, when it comes to magical attainments, Morgan le Fay is at the top.

Seeing that Alvin remained silent, Merlin smiled and said, "You don't have to be too anxious. Maybe after she knows you're back, she'll come to you herself."

"Hmm... But given that woman's terrible personality, since you betrayed her for Lily, I wonder what she'll do when she sees you..."

Alvin rolled his eyes and said, "If you don't know how to comfort me, you don't have to. Get out of here now."

Seeing Alvin's increasingly severe headache, Merlin's smile grew even wider.

It was a very interesting scene.

This trip out of the palace was indeed the right one...

Merlin waved his hand as he thought about this and said, "I'll be leaving now. See you another day."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the door.

However, just as Merlin's hand touched the door handle, his expression changed slightly, as if he felt something.

There's someone at the door!

"What's wrong? Are you really planning to stay and have some tea before leaving?"

Alvin looked at Merlin at the door strangely and was about to continue talking.

However, in the next moment, a cold and pleasant voice exploded in the minds of the two people like a scorching thunder, making their heads buzzing and their minds went blank in an instant.

"Aren't you going to invite me in for tea, Merlin?"

Chapter 11 Not a Buddy

boom!

The extremely calm words at the door rang loudly in Merlin's ears, causing his entire body to tremble violently.

The flower magician's first reaction was that he was hallucinating, his second reaction was to be pleased with King Arthur's growth, and his third reaction was... Damn it, should I get ready to run away?

Merlin knew very well what kind of person Altria was.

After all, he is Altria's teacher and one of the people in the world who knows her best.

However, even Merlin had not expected that the king would follow him all the way here without anyone noticing... Although it was just a clone of his, the method of blocking his aura was indeed very amazing.

Maybe when summoning heroic spirits, Wang Lian will be able to take on the assassin class.

Merlin was sighing in his heart, and then he quickly noticed Alvin's puzzled look.

Although Alvin hadn't said a word since the beginning, his eyes at this moment seemed to say: No, buddy, are you kidding me?

In Alvin's heart, although Merlin often behaves carelessly, he is actually a very reliable guy.

As a result...this time he didn't even know he was being followed?

As if he could read Alvin's mind, Merlin helplessly spread his hands and said, "That's why I told you long ago that the king is different now than he was before. Besides, my clone's perception isn't very good to begin with."

"But don't worry, if I want her to, she won't be able to detect your presence."

Merlin slowly took out his staff and smiled, "Now for the questions... Do you know what Merlin's signature magic trick is?"

As if asking and answering himself, Merlin's gentle voice once again came softly from the room.

"It's an illusion, Alvin."

……

Altria stood quietly at the door, looking at the tightly closed door in front of her. Although she had only said one sentence at the beginning, even an outsider could see that her heart was becoming increasingly cold.

Ever since Merlin used his clairvoyance and even offered to help, Artoria felt a little strange.

In the past, she would have believed in her teacher unconditionally.

But after the "White Dragon Battle" that shook the entire Camelot Empire, Artoria's trust in Merlin plummeted.

Add to that what Alvin said before his death... Artoria might listen to Merlin's advice on the general direction now, but she no longer trusts this flower magician.

And judging from the current results, it is indeed as Artoria thought at the beginning - Merlin is indeed untrustworthy.

Not only did he secretly collude with the time traveler, but now he was even caught red-handed by her...

Although I don't want to believe this fact, the blonde girl downstairs is obviously a time traveler.

And the person who is discussing plans with Merlin in the house at this moment is definitely a time traveler.

All of this has proven Merlin's betrayal.

Well… maybe not mutiny.

But even so, colluding with time travelers privately is a serious crime in the Camelot Empire.

Seeing that there was still no sound in the room, Altria opened the door with a calm expression.

"I'm in."

crunch.

There was a slight sound of the door opening, and the scene inside the house came into view completely.

Merlin sat on an old wooden chair, leaning back, with a gentle and sunny smile on his face.

He raised his hand and greeted him, saying, "Wang, why did you come here in person? Don't you still trust me?"

Altria glanced calmly at the empty room, then she walked to the edge of the windowsill and sat down.

"I just went out to relax and came to see you."

Soon, the woman's calm and pleasant voice sounded in her ears.

"I just didn't expect to see such an interesting scene when I first arrived... Is that girl downstairs a time traveler?"

At the end of her words, Artoria raised her eyes and stared quietly into the eyes of the white-haired wizard.

"Yes."

Without any excuses, Merlin said with a smile: "Her name is Lanis, and she is also a student of the Clock Tower. However, she is a bit special. She was transported to this world by body."

Altria pursed her red lips and whispered, "There should be other travelers in this room just now, right?"

"With your level of magic, it wouldn't be difficult to capture a few time travelers. Do you feel like you have some free time today, or do you have other motives, Merlin?"

The moment he heard this, the smile on Merlin's face seemed to fade a little.

I have to say, Lily's perception is really amazing now...

He had clearly set up the barrier in advance, but she still noticed it.

"King, perhaps you don't believe it, but everything I do is for the Camelot Empire."

Merlin quickly revealed a helpless expression, tapping his fingertips lightly on the table. "The appearance of time travelers isn't necessarily a disadvantage for the Camelot Empire. I'd like to learn more about the reasons behind their appearance..."

Although Merlin had not appeared in the public eye during this period of time, he had been keeping an eye on these travelers even when he was in the 'Tower'.

Time travelers from all ages... To the people of Camelot Empire, these time travelers might be heretics.

But in Merlin's opinion, this might become a very interesting change.

"Then you should have told me first instead of making the decision on your own."

Artoria stared into Merlin's eyes, her gaze gradually becoming dangerous, and asked, "Do you have anything to explain?"

The evidence is solid and the criminal is caught red-handed. In fact, with Merlin's eloquence, he can definitely defend himself again.

However, the white-haired wizard simply sighed and said, "There's nothing much to say. As you said, I did meet with the time traveler privately."

"……Why?"

There was a hint of disappointment in Altria's cold voice. Even though she had been disappointed with Merlin once, she still held on to the last glimmer of hope in King Arthur's heart.

Before coming here, she had thought that Merlin might have his own reasons.

However... he simply admitted it.

"The emergence of time travelers may bring about a major change in the future of the Camelot Empire."

Merlin said slowly, "My king, with all due respect, you shouldn't just focus on capturing these time travelers."

"I don't want to kill them. My original intention is the same as yours. I just want to know why they appeared." said Altria.

Merlin sighed softly, "But your approach is too extreme."

"I know that in your eyes, those who travel through time in this world are despicable people who desecrate the souls of the dead."

Altria frowned slightly, but before she could continue, Merlin slowly raised his head and looked at her.

"What if among these travelers there is someone you miss?"

Chapter 12 Lily, long time no see

The person you miss...?

The moment she heard this, Artoria seemed to have thought of something and stared into Merlin's eyes.

A long silence.

Altria opened her mouth slightly, and after a brief silence, her cold words that seemed to be able to freeze people rang quietly in the room.

"……impossible."

She just said this, but her eyes never left Merlin from beginning to end.

Altria couldn't imagine what would happen if a time traveler not only desecrated the dead, but also desecrated the white dragon that once silently protected the Camelot Empire...

Even Artoria herself didn't know how she would react after learning about this.

But just thinking about this possibility, there seemed to be a hint of anger in Artoria's eyes.

"...Now that things have come to this, why are you bringing him up again?!"

Facing Altria's questioning, Merlin kept smiling, his gentle and calm inquiries ringing in the blonde woman's ears.

"King, since his death... have you hated everything, including this country?"

Altria frowned slightly and said, "What do you want to say?"

"You should know what clairvoyance I possess."

Merlin said slowly, "I can deduce the future based on the information I already have. So from the moment I met you, I knew you would be the future king of Camelot."

"But during the sword-drawing ceremony, you weren't the only one who could pull out the sword from the stone."

This time, Altria was stunned for a long time without saying a word.

"……What's the meaning?"

"Pulling out the sword from the stone means that one's appearance will remain fixed at that moment forever, and the one holding it will become the future King Arthur of the empire. Alvin does not belong to this history, so he is destined not to pull out the sword."

Merlin said quietly, "But back then... he also caused the Sword in the Stone to become loose."
