Chapter 262: The smile gradually lacks virtue

"A messenger from Rome sent back?" Artoria asked. At this time, the Knights of the Round Table who had gone to see them off also returned to the palace.

"My king, we really want to send him away, but this hateful Gorlius wants to stay." Gawain reluctantly stepped forward to report.

"Uh-huh???" What is this statement? Artoria felt very confused, didn't she still can't wait to leave here before, why did she come out like this again? Since they had all broken up on an unhappy basis, it was common sense that Gaulius should not have returned to Rome in anger and then instigated the Roman Emperor to send troops to conquer Britain?

"That is to say, this Gao Si is too hateful, if you have to stick to me, you have to bring him back again." Mordred grumbled.

"And where is he now?" Artoria asked, "Could it be that he has changed his mind?" But there was no reason why he would confess to Britain. 】

"Right here." Mordred said, handing over the head of the man he had been holding on the tip of his sword. Mordred was dirty when he came, so he had to carry it back with the sword in his hand.

Gaurius's head was almost charred, as black as burnt firewood, and the shape was unrecognizable. Because the long haul was too cumbersome, Mordred had to take off the head of Gaurius and present it to him. It was a little far away, and Artoria thought that Mordred was playing with a black ball with her sword, but who knew that this was Gorius's head.

"So, you killed him?" Merlin asked a question duly enough.

[Wait, Merlin?! Only then did the knights discover that Merlin's magic stick was also here.

Merlin learns to be smart after being tied up by Mordred once, and she finds Mordred to be more "ruthless" than Artoria. Anyway, even if she ran in front of Artoria and was stabbed to death and resurrected, she would no longer be able to work as a coolie for Mordred.

As the saying goes, eating a trench grows a wisdom, and Merlin was not active at the banquet because Merlin made an excuse to slip away after knowing that Mordred was coming. Originally, I heard that Mordred and they were going to send Gaurius back to Rome, but Mordred and they came back without saying a word. This caught Merlin off guard, and in the main hall, Merlin and Mordred looked at each other, extremely embarrassed.

"Mordred Deqing is still so brave and martial!" Complimenting Mordred against his will, who in the round table doesn't know that Mordred is the best at it?

"Jam, jam." Mordred humbly arched his hand, and there was a harmonious atmosphere. [This old bastard, the law that was cast on me last time has been raining intermittently for a month......]

The matter of Mordred and Merlin has been revealed in the palace for the time being, and it is unclear whether Mordred will settle accounts with Merlin in private. After all, no one dares to underestimate Mordred's glorious deeds of beating Gawain's nose and swollen face when he first came.

Lancelot went up to report to Artoria what had happened. All in all, he can only blame Gaulius for being too good, thinking that he would be safe when he got on the ship, and ended up provoking hundreds of long-range light cannons.

Artoria understood the general situation, and it was not too unexpected for him. Golius was resentful when he left, and it was not surprising that he would provoke the Knights of the Round Table and threaten to set foot in Britain. Artoria had no intention of blaming her knights, for the sake of a dead envoy of a hostile country to criticize her knights, Artoria naturally would not do such a mediocre thing.

Ever since she was provoked by the impudence of Gaulius in the main hall and uttered words akin to a declaration of war, Artoria had been ready for battle. After all, the sincerity of the Roman side to make peace is not enough, and if you open your mouth and close your mouth, you will surrender and surrender, how can such conditions be accepted? Not to mention the permanent enslavement of the Celts by the Roman Empire!

Artoria was already very restrained when she didn't get angry at the banquet, and she didn't make any moves that would disgrace her country.

Historically, the Celtic nation has been plagued by many disasters. It was first annexed and suppressed by the rising Rome, and even the palace where Arthur King Artoria now lives is the palace of the Roman minister who originally ruled Britain. What is left behind is the eternal hatred of the Celts.

Finally, because the Romans could not suppress the resistance of the oppressed peoples, they chose to shrink their defense line and voluntarily abandoned Britain. Britain was embroiled in a chaotic division of countless large and small countries, leading to the brutal Saxons on the other side of the sea.

Another enslavement, not to say that Artoria does not agree, the people of Britain will not agree! "Freedom or death!" That's it. No one wants to accept the peace that is exchanged for submission.

"That's it, since you have already made a bad deal, you don't have to worry about such a thing. This arrogant Roman envoy was innocent of death. Artoria made the coffin closed.

"This ...... Oh my king. You see that everything is discussed, and there is nothing for me here. You see......... Can I quit first? Merlin said, glancing at Mordred, who pretended to be nothing. [Be sure to run out before Mordred.] The last time Gawain was late, he was blocked on the road by Mordred and beaten miserably. I can't afford to repeat the mistakes of the past! 】

"My king." Before Artoria could respond to Merlin, Mordred spoke up, "There are still some things to be resolved in my territory, can you apply to go first?" ”

It seems that Mordred has no intention of letting Merlin go. Merlin's body trembled when he heard this, [If we go out together, the next time I appear, I will be caught in her territory as a miner......]

[Run! Run! Merlin threw his legs and prepared to run.

If he didn't run, Merlin could already imagine the pitiful scene of moving bricks under the scorching sun.

At this time, a sentence made Merlin freeze in place.

"I see that Mordred Deqing and Master Merlin have something to say, so let's go to the side hall together to negotiate." Come on, after King Arthur spoke, things were settled, and Merlin couldn't escape Mordred's clutches.

Glancing back and forth at Mordred and Merlin, Artoria's smile faded.
