Ronan calendar, 1004, spring solstice.

On this day, which symbolizes the revival of all things, Zheng Ming accompanied Arthur, Gwyna and the old king to the booth of the palace.

Today is also the day to announce the marriage of the princess to the whole city, as well as the heir to the kingdom.

Arthur and Gwyna, who were dressed up to attend, joined hands to receive the blessings of the crowd below.

The noisy voice below could not cover the master of ceremonies' deep voice, and I saw him offer his blessings with emotion in that aria-like tone.

"This is Duke Arthur, the future king of the Celts. A qualified knight, a valiant warrior, the owner of a golden scabbard, a true dragon knight. And this is believed to be Duke Arthur's partner, a descendant of the dragon god, who revered the contract of Dragon, Ming. ”

With the introduction of the master of ceremonies, there were sudden cheers from below. The inhabitants of the royal capital are caring for the future of the kingdom in their own way, celebrating this memorable day.

"Isn't this the new Shadow of the Throne? Legend has it that Dragon's mighty presence was a massive being with fangs and claws. It's not human. ”

An untimely voice came, clearly reaching the ears of most of the people present. The voice came from the aristocratic area below, but when he tried to find the speaker, he found that all the nobles were looking around with inexplicable innocent faces. They acted as if they were saying that what had just been said had nothing to do with them.

"Don't worry about those who hide their heads and tails."

Beside Zheng Ming, Arthur lowered his head and comforted softly, while the master of ceremonies also explained aloud at the behest of the old king.

"The reason why the Shadow of the Throne takes on a human form is because it is to better integrate into us, so it transforms into a human. His essence is indeed the legendary Dragon. ”

"Then let him show his dragon body and let us see."

Another voice that hid himself came, Zheng Ming's eyes flashed and looked towards the aristocratic area, only to find that this time the sound was no longer from the aristocratic area, but between the commoners with a wider area and a denser population.

Before he could figure out the source of the sound, a series of shouts rang out from all directions.

"Appear in the body of the dragon, appear in the body of the dragon."

"The original form, the original form."

…………

The faint sound of fanning like a spark quickly spread and expanded, and in the blink of an eye, the civilians below raised their hands and shouted. The jagged shouts gradually converged and turned into waves of sweeping sounds. made Zheng Ming, who was standing on the high platform, have a strange sense of familiarity.

Oh, yes! Isn't this the scene I've seen from the movie? A group of ignorant people, instigated by those who have a heart, gather together to shout the scene of burning the witch. Although they were all smiling and excited, they were all of a similar nature.

Zheng Ming even saw from below that Gao Wen's people were also raising their arms and shouting in the midst of this wave. They had smiles on their faces, and they didn't seem to feel anything was wrong.

"Speaking of which, they really haven't seen my ancient dragon form once. No wonder so excited. ”

Thinking like this in his heart, Zheng Ming glanced at Arthur, who was embarrassed, and the old king who was about to drip from his face, whose face was already gloomy. He stepped past Arthur and Gwyna, the newcomers, and after motioning for the overwhelmed master of ceremonies to step back, he stood at the edge of the stand.

Stepping on the unknown sculpture on the edge, Zheng Ming looked down at the people below who were in a frenzy, chuckled and took a deep breath.

"Look at my dragon body? Is that what you want? ”

As Zheng Ming shouted, the sound below suddenly increased. I saw that the people below who were in high spirits raised their arms and shouted.

"Whew!"

"Since you want to see it, it's good enough to watch it. Don't regret it! ”

"Oh!"

The roar of excitement was incessant, and the sound never stopped.

And Zheng Ming, who was bathed in this sound and blazing gaze, compared his eyes and slowly opened his arms.

"Transfiguration. Ancient Drake. ”

With a turn of his heart, Zheng Ming's body suddenly bloomed with a dazzling light. The colorful and brilliant colors flowed downward, covering the bright sun in the middle of the sky, dyeing the surroundings into brilliant colors.

The bright light comes and goes quickly. In an instant, the light dissipated, and a dragon more than two meters long appeared in Zheng Ming's original position.

The slender body was covered with delicate inky black dragon scales, and the occasional flash of blue light added just the right amount of chill. The wings covered with hideous barbs spread out, resembling bat wings. The gray-white stone sculpture was easily crumpled into pieces like tofu under the claws of the cold light.

However, although the roaring dragon body did reveal a unique beauty that belonged to the strong, its two-meter-long size still made the group below fall into doubt.

"This ...... Is this Dragon? ”

The original sound had disappeared without a trace, and a suspicious question sounded in the crowd of people who suddenly lost their voices as if they had been stuck in their throats.

"Isn't Dragon a huge behemoth?"

"It's too small. Why is he so small? ”

"He's not even as big as those lizards that claim to have dragon blood!"

"This is the mount of the True Dragon Knight?"

"Are they deceiving us?"

Far louder than before, a loud voice exploded from the crowd below. It's just that unlike the neat shouting before, the sound at this time is more like thousands of mosquitoes buzzing in the ears. It shook people's heads and buzzed.

Seeing that the public opinion below was developing in a bad direction, the anger of the commoners and nobles was mobilized more and more obviously. With a worried look on his face, Arthur turned to look at the old king. found that the old king had regained his expressionless expression at this time, but the cruelty that flashed in his eyes from time to time told Arthur that the other party must be in a very bad mood.

As for Zheng Ming, who Arthur was most worried about, as the main target of this attack, the boos and roars from the crowd below undoubtedly had the greatest impact on him.

"Good. Don't you guys want to see it? I'll let you see it clearly today. ”

"Long Wei."

"Roar."

Long Wei has great power in itself after fusing skills such as "Roar, Roar, and Shock". Coupled with the blessing of the talent "majesty" and the exertion of the dragon god, Zheng Ming's roar stopped abruptly everywhere the noisy and angry shouts came.

"Demon Flame."

Inky black flames burned from Zheng Ming's dragon. Between the flickering of the demonic flames, the faces of the angry people flashed away. The strange demonic flame raised Zheng Ming's arrogance at this time to a higher level.

The crowd below looked at the figure on the high platform of the palace in amazement. It was like a demonic flame made of countless undead spirits, as if it would fly down and detain their souls at any moment.

"Hades, Hades! This is the legendary Demon Flame of Hades? ”

"Death! It is death. ”

"The devil."

Not to mention those who were quite powerful but were shocked and whispered, even Cohen, who was standing next to the old king, and the strong knight of level forty, felt creepy.

"What's going on? Stop him. If this continues, it will only get worse. ”

Hearing the king's anxious order, Cohen and the strong man smiled wryly.

Cohen: "King." I don't recommend it. The situation is unclear at this time, although it is not known what will happen if it is approached rashly. ”

Sisjie: "I agree with Cohen's judgment. Wang, it is imperative to ensure your safety first. I advise you to stay away from here for the time being. ”

Gwynna: "Arthur, what are you doing?" Come back! ”

The two guards were still trying to persuade the old king to leave first, but they heard the princess's exclamations. They hurriedly looked in the direction where Arthur and Gwyna were standing.

At this time, Arthur stepped out with a solemn face, ignoring Gwina's shout, and walked slowly but unusually firmly towards Zheng Ming in front of him.

"Enough. Stop. ”

Zheng Ming, who was still struggling to release his breath, stopped his roaring move to the sky and looked back behind him after hearing the familiar voice.

So everyone below saw that as Arthur, who was covered in golden light, put his hand on the side of the monster's neck, the terrifying momentum and the black flames burning on the monster's body suddenly disappeared.

Before the relieved crowd below could cheer, Arthur could see something to say to the monster. Then the monster reverted to its human form and walked back in turn.

There was silence in the field, not because they didn't want to cheer, but because the monster called Ming, when they left, they looked like ants, so they really didn't dare to be the first sheep.

“chua~”

In the midst of this silence, Arthur, who was standing in front of the high platform, drew his sword at his waist and held it high on the top. The golden glow of energy rendered him divine and powerful. It was in stark contrast to the previous pitch-black Zheng Ming.

"I'm Arthur of the Golden Lion. A descendant of the Red Dragon who has been recognized by the Golden Scabbard. True Dragon Knight. And the future king of the Celts. I haven't tasted defeat since I was born. I am the strongest knight and the strongest king. You just have to believe in me and follow me. I swear I will lead you to victory. Keep winning! I will lead you to defeat the High Benefactors, so that they will never again dare to plunder like a mirror. I will defeat all the surrounding kingdoms and make them worship us Celts, and I will lead you to defeat all the true dragon knights, snatch the legendary dragon's spine sword, and obtain the promise of the dragon god......"

The people below listened to the oaths that kept coming to their ears, listened to the blood-boiling promises, and looked at each other.

The sparse cheers rang out, then grew, and finally turned into an earth-shattering roar. Arthur looked at the people below, his expression was unprecedentedly solemn, and he changed his previous calm tone and shouted loudly.

"The one before him, he screamed. It's my dragon. I made a contract with him. I'm sure everyone has seen that he is strong and he will get stronger and stronger. In time you will find that when you charge into battle there will be a reliable figure in front of you, and when you are victorious, his name will be among the heroes who cheer. He is half like me, and slandering and insulting him is tantamount to scolding me. Your future king! ”
