Chapter 105: Excavation of Gratitude for the Passed-Solo Dance Reward
Kai still doesn't understand why Arthur would be willing to believe a witch who didn't know the details and turn a deaf ear to his father's words. Could it be that his father, who had raised him for more than ten years, couldn't compare to a few words from that Morgause?
"What you saw is definitely not Igraine. I know Igraine. She is a gentle woman. She loves Uther even more than her life. She would never say that."
Kai did know Igraine relatively well. After all, he and Igraine had lived together for almost ten years. Soon after Kai was born, his father gave him to King Uther to raise, but King Uther
A grown man who is also a king is so busy every day, where does he have time to take care of Kai? And with King Uther's serious character, how can he get along with a child?
So strictly speaking, it was Queen Igraine who brought Kai up. Kai spent most of his 'childhood' with Igraine. To be honest, the relationship between Igraine and Kai was even deeper.
It's just that when that incident happened, Kai was too young and hadn't even awakened Golden Finger. Apart from the memories of his past life, he had nothing at all and could only watch Igraine die young.
Kay still remembered that when Igraine was dying, she held King Uther's hand and said she had no regrets. The only thing she asked was to let King Uther take good care of Arthur.
Kai knows Igraine better than Arthur, his own son. It is impossible for the real Igraine to say that. Instead, it is possible that he accuses King Uther of killing innocent people indiscriminately. Igraine
Rein is an extremely gentle woman, very similar to Morgana's character, kind and daring to dissuade.
"But... Is it not a lie that I was born by magic? It was because of my birth that my mother died. And... he knew it clearly, but he allowed this to happen. Is it also a lie?
of?"
I don’t know if he was in a bad situation, but Arthur still couldn’t come out. This incident was indeed a major blow to him. His father had devoted his life to fighting magic, but his son was born from magic, and
Is there anything more ironic than this?
Just as Kai was about to explain, King Uther spoke first.
"Yes, your birth was indeed due to magic. And your mother... did die because of me." This was the first time that King Uther had shouldered the responsibility on himself since that incident. In fact,
Yes, King Uther has indeed been thinking this in his heart over the years, but he has never admitted it in front of others. Today, perhaps he was stimulated and made him speak out his true feelings for the first time.
But King Uther's confession made Arthur confused about what to say. Because the sadness on King Uther's face was impossible to fake.
"What happened back then... was not entirely Uther's fault. Uther did want an heir back then, and the same was true for Igraine. Regarding your birth, Uther didn't know about it at the beginning. It was Igraine who carried it out.
Then Uther found Nivi, a witch. For their own reasons, both of them wanted to fulfill Uther's wish, so... when Uther found out later, Igraine was already pregnant with you. But even if
At that time, Uther still doesn’t know that the price of giving birth to you was the sacrifice of Igraine.”
Kai saw the heartbroken Uther and had to take over the conversation and help him explain clearly what happened back then. Otherwise, with King Uther's current mentality, he might really have to bear everything on himself.
"But Igraine has no regrets. I was by her side before she died, and I witnessed everything."
Arthur was a little at a loss. This was far from the truth he knew. But in his heart, he believed what Kai said. After all, Kai had never lied to him.
"Then why did you never tell me the truth? What are you hiding? Why can't I know the truth about my birth?" This is what Arthur can't figure out the most. If what Kai said is true, why should he hide it from him?
.
"...The only reason we do this is to protect you." Kai said seriously. "Can you imagine what the reaction would be if the truth about your birth was known to the outside world? Listen, Arthur, no matter what
Both Igraine and Uther have done their best to protect you, you should never doubt this! Never!"
Arthur is actually inclined to believe Kai's words, because no matter what, Uther's protection for him is real. But Arthur is still very confused in his heart. Because he is sure of at least one thing, that is
No matter who lies, the source of countless deaths is himself!
In the past, Arthur did not agree with many of King Uther's practices, including the almost harsh persecution of wizards and King Uther's iron-fisted rule. But now, Kai told him that everything King Uther did was
It's because of him, he is the source of everything. How does he accept this?
Arthur didn't even remember how he left the meeting hall and returned to his room. His mind was always hazy. Even Merlin didn't know what the three of them said in the meeting hall. He only knew that after coming out of there, Arthur
Although he didn't say anything, his attitude towards wizards and magic suddenly changed.
If Arthur was sympathetic to wizards and magic at the beginning, now he has turned to disgust and suspicion. At least in the case of 'Igraine', Arthur already believed that Morgause had deceived him.
This made Merlin very frustrated, because he once saw Arthur's tolerance for magic and witchcraft. But now, it is even worse than before.
…
Just when the atmosphere in the royal family was tense because Arthur learned the truth, a group of people began to celebrate underground in Camelot.
"I found the tomb! I found the tomb!"
A worker suddenly ran out of a pothole and shouted to the workers who were still working around him. His shout immediately attracted everyone.
Some of the workers were particularly excited. They pushed aside the workers in front of them and came to the end of the pit. There was a hole the size of a fist. Looking in from the hole, it was dark inside, but it was dark.
It can be seen that there is a very large space inside.
One of the workers moved the torch to the edge of the cave entrance. When the firelight shone in, a burst of golden light was reflected.
It's gold!
Endless gold and silver treasures!
This is just the scene found through a small hole. If the tomb is completely opened, you can imagine what the scene is inside.
Several workers at the front looked at each other, and suddenly took out glass vials from their arms with a tacit understanding. They covered their mouths and noses with some towels soaked in antidote, and threw the glass vials on the ground.
For a time, streams of blue-green smoke spread rapidly.
The other workers fainted without understanding what happened. The whole process took less than five seconds, and no sound was made.
The smoke came and went quickly. In less than ten seconds, the smoke evaporated and disappeared.
When the smoke disappeared, the workers put down the towels covering their mouths and noses.
"You can inform the leader. We must move quickly. We must move these treasures out while the knights are still outside looking for traces of Arthur and have not had time to return to the city!"
