Dragon of the Root

Chapter 25: Omen

Chapter 25: Omen

Ten years have passed since the swift war of Dekker Reis, and after twelve large-scale wars, King Arthur has now completely expelled the Saxons from Britain.

At the same time Caliburn sword had also been broken once to save the life of a knight who violated knightly morality.

For this reason, the knight feels guilty and voluntarily asks to find the holy grail that can fulfill his wish at the end of the war to return Caliburn sword.

Artoria was also accompanied by Wu Ming, Merlin and Lancelot, and obtained the Holy Sword Excalibur [Sword of Promised Victory] and the Sacred Sheath Excalibur Avalon [The Everdistant Utopia] presented by the Lady of the Lake.

Artoria also received the blessing of the Lady of the Lake and was able to walk freely on the water. This resolves Artoria lack of being able to swim as a king. (After all, Artoria can't appear as a girl, and she will be visible once she swims.)

To Wu Ming surprise, the Lady of the Lake also gave him a gem pendant, saying that it could help him.

After that, Wu Ming discovered that wearing this gemstone all the time could slow down the negative effects of his dragon attribute, and he had been carrying it ever since.

During this period, the number of members of the Knights of the Round Table increased and decreased, eventually maintaining to one hundred and fifty, enough to fill the round table.

At the same time, Wu Ming also saw the rebellious knight Mordred, white armor with red stripes, plus a horn helmet and a hoarse voice, although it was a fake voice.

For this rebellious knight, as long as Wu Ming is close to the opponent, he can always feel a strange connection, as if Mordred can also feel it, therefore, Mordred often speaks harshly to himself.

Regarding this relationship, Wu Ming vaguely guessed something in his heart.

At this time, Artoria was not in Camelot, but the British Silver Dragon in charge of guarding Camelot, namely Wu Ming himself.

Because in the early days of King Arthur campaign, several nobles and kings, because of their ambitions, attacked Camelot while Artoria was leading the army.

Fortunately, Camelot soldiers fought back briefly, which allowed Wu Ming to return at full speed. Soon after that he freed his true name Noble Phantasm and Camelot was saved.

By the way, the liberation status of Noble Phantasm Exsilver true name is a towering pillar of light, similar to the light of Gawain Excalibur (Sword of Revolving Victory) and Artoria Excalibur (Sword of Promised Victory).

Since then, Wu Ming had been arranged by Artoria to stay in Camelot to protect Queen Guinevere and guard Camelot City.

As for the nobles and kings who attacked Camelot, Altoria decisively eliminated them one by one.

Even if she forgives her, it is a scourge. For the sake of Britain future, it needs to be removed.

In the backyard of the royal palace, Guinevere in her twenties became even more beautiful, she took care of the flowers she nurtured, while Wu Ming stood at the side.

"Sir Vero, do you think these flowers are beautiful?" Guinevere didn't look back, but Wu Ming could still see Gneville smile.

"Exquisite."

"Then why don't you pick the flowers you like." Guinevere was a little sad.

"I like it, but as a knight, I shouldn't think about it."

"Really I just love it." Guinevere turned and smiled.

"This country is peaceful," said Guinevere in a lively tone.

"If there's nothing unexpected, then yes." Wu Ming said a little worried.

"Don't worry, Sir Vero, with our brave British Silver Dragon and brave King Arthur, there will be peace."

"I hope so." Wu Ming muttered.

The more peaceful, the more disturbed Wu Ming was.

In fact, Wu Ming had not seen Merlin for a long time, and he could not contact Merlin.

Wu Ming guessed that Merlin might have been sealed by Morgan le Fay into Avalon.

Wu Ming once reminded Merlin, it seemed that it was useless.

Artoria left Camelot, in fact, to find Merlin.

"Morgan le Fay I hope you can be honest, otherwise I'll take you away before I leave!"

.....

At dinner, everyone celebrated British unity and the arrival of peace.

Wu Ming was thinking about what Artoria had said to him today.

"You can go now?" said Artoria.

"Well, Britain is at peace, and there's a slight reaction to the spell on my body." Wu Ming was summoned in to this era at first, and after signing a contract with King Uther Pendragon, there was a layer of magic spells in Wu Ming, as long as King Uther goal was achieved, the technique would activate and he would be sent back to his original place.

It's just that Wu Ming is nostalgic for this place.

Wu Ming looked at Artoria, who had not changed at all in ten years, Wu Ming couldn't help but sigh.

"Looks like I'm really getting used to Vero identity, Artoria."

"Then what is your real name?"

"Wu Ming."

"Then I will call you Wu Ming from now on, and please accept this."

Wu Ming eyes shook when he saw what Artoria was holding.

"Wait, Artoria, isn't this avalon, why did you give it to me!?"

Seeing Wu Ming slightly anxious face, Artoria smiled.

"Because of the peace, I need you to help me save it temporarily, since you said that Avalon will be lost."

"But, what if I take it with me when I go, no one knows how long I can last with this technique."

"Then, from now on, you will protect me personally."

.....

"Hahhh~" Wu Ming sighed.

"Sure enough, I'm still not good at mental activities." He shook his head and drank his wine.

After the banquet, Wu Ming walked towards his room in the royal palace, and a servant passed by.

"Sir Vero, the king invites you to see you in the garden after the meeting and discuss various matters."

Wu Ming frowned, but said for a moment.

"Understood, you go first."

Therefore, Wu Ming went alone. But Wu Ming didn't notice it when he left. The maid eyes shone with lavender light, like illusory smoke, very mysterious.

Wu Ming also entered the trap designed for him.
