Merlin Lestrade, the legendary Merlin, the Great/Mage Merlin, and also the Merlin who assisted King Arthur, who could have imagined that he would one day turn himself into a child, not only sealing his own magic with the will of the ancient religion, but also hiding his own memories.

Then he became Merlin Lestrade, the youngest child in the Lestrade family.

Merlin's arrival was an accident, the boy who cried by the lake, the boy who clung to Lestrade ended up staying at home, and Lestrade didn't plan to adopt any children before Merlin, but he couldn't refuse Merlin.

Merlin has been afraid of water since he was a child, and the river is okay, but Merlin doesn't like lakes or even oceans, and every time he cries for no reason, and later Lestrade understands the reason for this, because Merlin sent away two important friends, a beloved who is by the lake, which carries too many memories for him.

Merlin never imagined that he would ever see Arthur, and although the dragon had prophesied when he left, he was still alone after waiting for a thousand years, and the man who had fallen asleep at the bottom of the lake had never woken up. But who knew that Arthur would eventually wake up and come to Hogwarts, and he found him.

Merlin remembered that Arthur had sworn his allegiance to himself on his knees, and he remembered crying for no reason when he saw Arthur, there was so much to talk about between the two of them. Merlin took a long time to recover his memory, so Arthur used another identity to guard Merlin's side for a long time.

Before the final battle begins, Merlin wants to return to Avalon to find his sealed magic, and Merlin is not yet a full-fledged Merlin. In order to find Merlin's magic, the two of them entered the magic circle together, and they had a dream, a dream called if.

In Merlin's dream, he confesses his identity to Arthur, and then ...... He was burned to death, it was Arthur himself who lit the fire, and in Arthur's dream he brought the magic back to the land, but his passage was missing Merlin, and the boy did not appear until he was twilight, and he had completely missed everything.

After waking up from that dream, Arthur ran to Merlin's side and told him to wake up, he couldn't tolerate a world without Merlin, Merlin was his half, and Arthur could only be called a human being if the two of them met.

Merlin became a hero and the one who was admired after the Great War in the wizarding world, and this admiration came from the accumulation of time, Merlin was the origin of magic, and he was the man that no one did not respect in magic itself. For those druids who left Avalon, Merlin didn't give them a chance to turn back, and they were put on trial.

Merlin and Arthur lived a very dashing life in the last year, and no one could teach Merlin anything, so he turned around and became a professor in Hogwarts, a special professor, which was the honor he deserved. The students all chased after Merlin to learn something from him, but they were a little afraid of the legendary one.

However, soon their opportunity is gone, and after graduation, Merlin and Arthur have a decision that they want to travel.

To be honest, Merlin and Arthur have lived for too much, many years, and even as long as the ancient religion still exists, there is magic in this world, and the two of them will still go hand in hand. But in the last few thousand years, Merlin has never left England and Arthur has been asleep, they have never seen the world with their own eyes, so they want to travel around the world to see.

Of course, there will be no problems with money, not to mention that those pure-blood families will be willing to serve Merlin, as long as Merlin opens his mouth, Harold will give him an unlimited black card, which is completely enough for Merlin to squander for a lifetime, and all the money in that black card is saved by Harold for so many years. Before that, Merlin didn't know that he was actually a rich man, and his concept was that his money was in Harold's hands.

So Merlin and Arthur took the money and started their trip, and by the way, Arthur was still thinking about whether he was the legendary hug/leg.

They went to Asia to see the Great Wall, they went to Antarctica to take pictures with penguins, they also went to the United States to visit Tony and Raven, and whenever they could, they would travel around the world whenever they could, and then bring all kinds of gifts to their brothers, and even once Merlin whimsically wanted to smuggle back a zebra from South Africa.

Arthur never thought of such a life, his memory stopped at the day a thousand years ago, he and Merlin were angry because Merlin was a wizard, but he also forgave Merlin afterwards, and he had no reason not to forgive, because he loved this man deeply.

On the day of his sleep, he leaned into Merlin's arms and watched the man grit his teeth and hold back a smile, I don't know why Arthur wanted to laugh a little, he wanted to laugh and tell Merlin that the crybaby was not a big deal, they would meet in another world eventually, he would stand there and wait for Merlin's arrival, take him by the hand and go to hell together.

Merlin cried like a child, and he wanted to kiss the tears from Merlin's face, and that was Arthur's last thought.

But he missed the appointment, and he made Merlin wait for thousands of years.

Now they were near the Aegean Sea, a private island that belonged to Harold, the man who probably bought a house all over the world, one of Merlin's brothers. It was very private, so there were only the two of them on the huge island, and Merlin sat on the beach and looked into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

Arthur came to Merlin's side with two glasses of red wine, he sat down and handed one of them to Merlin, they had attended Harry and Draco's wedding before coming here, Arthur thought about what kind of wedding he should give Merlin?

"Merlin, what are you thinking?"

Merlin looked into the distance and lowered his head, he thought of the past, the bits and pieces of the past and Arthur, and also thought of the future, and in the end everyone would leave them, a fact that they could never change.

"I think of the test after you killed the unicorn, and you tricked me into drinking both glasses of wine."

Arthur leaned over and kissed Merlin on the cheek, that was what he provoked, how could it be possible for his little henchman to suffer with everything, "If this is the case, I can only say that you didn't listen to me, I said that you should stay in the castle obediently." ”

"Hey, Arthur, don't be so unreasonable, you stupid prince can't do without my help."

Arthur knew that Merlin was probably thinking about something sad, so he deliberately caused Merlin to be angry at himself, so that he could forget about the sad things, Arthur was more open than Merlin, he had experienced a death, and he knew that sometimes many things were not decided by them, even if he was Merlin and he was Arthur.

They lived on the island for a long time, about a year, and although they often returned to Lestrade's side on the way, they would still stay at home for a while and then return to the island, which Merlin wanted to call a second home, or Merlin and Arthur's home.

So Merlin wants to buy the island from Harold, but Harold refuses, and he gives the island to Merlin and Arthur as their wedding gift, and yes, Merlin and Arthur decide to get married, just as the island is in 2027.

Lestrade was very happy to see Merlin get married, and his little crying bag finally chose to get married, maybe then Lestrade would be able to rest assured, because there was finally someone who could really accompany Merlin to the end of the world.

Lestrade knew that they were destined not to accompany Merlin to the end, he couldn't do McCroft, and from Harry to Raven, only Loki and Thor could barely do it, but the two of them were far away in Asgard, so only Arthur in this world could accompany Merlin forever until ...... The end of the world.

Lestrade straightened his suit for Merlin, Merlin stood there sniffing and accidentally overlapped with the small tear packets in Lestrade's memory, he stepped forward and kissed Merlin's forehead, "Angel, wait a minute, Loki's eyes are red, they're going to laugh at you." ”

“dad……”

He didn't want to cry but couldn't help it, Lestrade had a different meaning for Merlin, he made up for the feelings that Merlin had lacked for thousands of years, his love nourished Merlin and grew up slowly, and now the man he needed to look up to was old, his hair was no longer that silver but white representing aging, and the corners of his eyes were wrinkled, and his dad was old and different from what he remembered.

Holding his youngest son in his arms, Lestrade reached out and patted Merlin on the shoulder and said, "You will always make me proud, Merlin." ”

Merlin and Arthur's regret is probably that they will not have children, Arthur likes children, but the matter of male witches giving birth to children cannot happen to them, and the ancient religion will not allow a child belonging to Merlin's blood to be born, because it will completely break the balance of the ancient religion.

It was as if in a blink of an eye Merlin sent away Mycroft and Lestrade, his father and dad, the two of them left very peacefully, leaving them a diary, Merlin looked at the words that Mycroft left for himself and cried so much, Mycroft said: Merlin, the only kidnapped little guy, enjoy your life, if Arthur James dares to bully you, you can choose not to do it yourself, believe us your dad and father can still beat people.

They will always remember the little boy and treat the legendary Merlin as if he were a child who needs to be pampered.

Many, many years later, Harry and Draco died, and they left on the same day like Lestrade and Mycroft, who left Merlin later? Harold or Tony? Merlin already remembers a little, Hannibal and Will died on their last trip, they entered the Bermuda Triangle and never returned, and Raven was the last to leave Merlin.

When Raven died, she looked at her brother, who was still young, and said with a smile: "It's good that God made you meet Arthur again, otherwise my poor brother would be alone, and then live alone." ”

That young face hadn't changed since he was an adult, and Merlin held Raven's hand tightly as Raven's abilities spiraled out of control, turning into one familiar person after another in the hospital bed/on, Lestrade, McCroft, Harry...... Wait a minute.

Raven was like his dad and his brothers before him, and she said she was happy to see someone who could accompany him to old age.

"Merlin is the most afraid coward of loneliness."

Merlin sent away a person who had a familiar acquaintance, and finally he and Arthur were left with each other, Merlin held Arthur's hand tightly and refused to let go, Raven said that he was a coward to him, he fell in love with the feeling of home after thousands of years of loneliness, and now ...... But once again, it was lost.

The only remaining family members are Loki and Thor, who are far away from Earth, but they rarely return.

Merlin actually can't remember the days that followed, the ups and downs of the ancient religion finally closed its door, and the world Merlin and Arthur once again became legends, and Merlin looked at the man next to him and smiled quietly, Arthur abandoned his thousand years and used a thousand years to pay back.

Merlin kissed Arthur's closed eyes, and he reached out to trace Arthur's face, "When you get old, you become a handsome old man." ”

Arthur ...... Good night, don't be afraid this time, I'll be with you. ”

Arthur finally got his wish, standing on the zero point of death, he held out his hand to the man on the other side, and the man in the coarse cloth clothes with the red saliva pocket held his hand tightly.

"Arthur."

"Merlin." 166 Reading Network
