"Those monsters, how can there be so many ......"

When Artoria, the dull king who was at work, heard the alarm bell and left everything behind and ran out to fight, all she saw was a monster with a beak and huge wings flying in the sky, hovering above her castle in the palace of Camelot, and landing in circles...... Soon, before she could react, she could only watch in amazement as a small figure familiar to her was scolding and jumping off the back of one of the largest monsters with white feathers, and then viciously kicking the other party's thick legs and claws, which were huge and hideous compared to them.

Seriously, if she hadn't had good eyesight just now and saw this little guy sitting on the back of the most conspicuous of those monsters, even if she hadn't directly pulled out the 'Sword of Victory Oath' on her waist and given those monsters a hard blow, she would probably have let the soldiers force those guys back with arrows, right?

Of course, although she wanted to do that now, she resisted the urge to draw her sword.

For the monsters were now gliding down one by one, honestly and one by one, like tame warhorses, lying on her and not too large lawn of the palace, occupying almost half of the area.

After stabilizing the faint uneasiness in her heart, she stretched out her hand to signal the soldiers not to attack or flee, and then she stepped forward cautiously according to the hilt of the "Sword of Victory Oath" hanging from her waist.

"They ......"

"Annie, what the hell is this? These monsters, why are they here?! ”

⊙(・◇・)？

Artoria says that she has never seen such a magical and powerful terrifying creature in her past life or in the present!

They look big and big...... Almost as thick as two horses combined, they had powerful limbs and sharp claws, sharp eyes and huge sharp beaks, as well as huge wings, broad backs and muscular bodies......

There is no doubt that just by looking at the appearance, you can know that these monsters must be a very ferocious, good at preying and fighting birds of prey (beasts) in the air!

It's just that...... What puzzled Artoria a little was why Anne had brought these monsters here at this time.

Could it be that these monsters, like those Flame Knights and Flame Horses, or the War Horse Jie Ying, the descendant of the mythical beast she loved so much, were all magical creatures summoned by the little girl?

"Humph! These hateful creatures are called griffins, and they are actually those 'monsters' who have been out to eat people for the past two days! ”

Hearing the dumb sister standing not far behind her, Anne finally stopped the urge to keep kicking the griffin.

This stupid guy was too fast and a little bumpy when she just dived and landed, and she felt a little uncomfortable herself, so she had to accept Queen Anne's punishment!

"They want to run out today to catch people and sheep, and then, ah, now they are all captured alive by me! You see, there are so many of them, am I super powerful?! ”

(◍´꒳`◍)✌

"Whoa! This fun stuff is for you! ”

After a moment of pride, Anne grinned happily at the fierce griffins lying on the flat ground, and suddenly reached out and handed a beautiful golden feather that she had solidified with her magic into the hands of the Dull King, who was still a little confused.

When she was just outside the city, she turned all the timid soldiers into sheep, and then drove them all to the open fields after the harvest was completed, along with the cattle of the original farmers, and then, ah, these stupid fellows who are now lying on the ground really fell for it, and rushed down one by one to prey?

And then ......

When they approached the ground a certain distance, in the incredible exclamation of a certain magic stick, one by one scorching flame energy ropes, like tentacle monsters, frantically rushed out of the magic arrays on the ground, and firmly bound the limbs of these monsters, and then forcibly pulled them to the ground, grabbed them all, and not even one of them could escape!

This is the fate of their greed and arrogance, daring to come to Camelot to make trouble, to run to Her Majesty Queen Anne's territory to spread wild, and really think that no one can cure them?

"Huh? Oh! ”

"But...... What is this, what is this, and what is it for?! ”

Artoria, who was still surprised that little Anne was really strong enough to catch so many man-eating griffins at once, opened her mouth in surprise for a while before she looked down at the golden hard feather that the other party had just forcibly stuffed into her palm, which was about a palm long and half a palm wide.

First, she subconsciously took it in front of her and studied it for a while, and then Artoria was directly confused...... Obviously, her mind was still a little confused, and she hadn't been able to recover from the shock these monsters had brought her, so she could only look up and ask in surprise, a little bewildered.

She didn't know what this little guy meant, why did she suddenly give her this feather? It's soft to the touch, but it's tough...... Also, there seems to be a little red blood on its tail, so it should have been pulled out not long ago?

But......

What made her a little puzzled was that looking at the place in front of her, she saw that a large group of these 'griffin' monsters in the past didn't seem to have golden feathers, right?

The biggest and strongest of them should be the leader!

It is white all over, with a sharp golden beak and sharp claws, and the smaller ones are mostly brown feathers, and of course, there are some with a ring of white hair around their necks? In short, the sum of all colors, here, there are about seventy or eighty, and there is no golden one among them.

And Artoria, who is still a little confused, still feels a little confused, what is this little guy Anne doing when he comes back with so many such ferocious monsters? Wouldn't it be better to just drive them away or kill them so that they don't come to Camelot to make trouble again?

"What's the use? You're not stupid, it's certainly useful! ”

"You can give me a good look now, they ...... It's the Air Force I caught for you! You see, they are big and ferocious, and although they can't compare to dragons or anything, if they cooperate with knights and throw stones or spears at enemies from the sky, wouldn't it be very powerful?! ”

Of course, the best thing to do is to throw a bomb or something......

But Anne was afraid of trouble, and didn't want to mess them up with those strange things! Therefore, it is relatively simple and reliable to throw stones or spears, and they can easily make them by the ancient natives of the earth.

“……”

"You mean...... Air Force, Air Force?! ”

He looked down at the inconspicuous golden feather in his palm, about half the size of his palm, and then looked up at the large group of strong griffons who had been caught and enslaved, and looked a little listless for a while...... After a moment's pause, Artoria's breathing suddenly became rapid, and then, a rare flush of excitement appeared on her face.

If......

They can really do their bidding, and they can really ride knights and attack enemies from the air with stones, short spears, throwing axes, or fire oil and the like...... From then on, they Camelot not only have absolute air superiority, but can also directly change the mode of all wars, right?

Artoria, who had many years of experience in fighting and commanding campaigns, knew that no army of that kingdom could defend itself against an attack from above, and although it was a little small in number, it would be a huge blow to the enemy's morale and will to fight if she was disturbed by her griffin troops!

Perhaps, he could really use force to smooth out the chaotic situation here in Britain in a short period of time, before the Saxon barbarians in the north and overseas had officially invaded, and even unify the entire southern part of Britain?

"Ann, Anne......"

"Are you really sure that these griffons, they are really willing to obey my command?!"

The more she thought about it, the more excited Artoria became, and after taking a deep breath, she trembled slightly, clutched the feather in her hand that she didn't know what it was for, and quickly took a few steps forward and pulled out a little girl who wanted to continue to bully the leader griffin, and then asked in a trilled voice as if she was panting.

"Of course, didn't you just see me fly back with them? Otherwise, what am I going to do with them? ”

Anne pointed to the griffon tribe who were lying on the ground, feebly awaiting judgment. It is said that in that temporary lair of theirs, there are many more small ones and some housekeepers, but under the bloodline contract, those guys have now been all wiped out by Anne!

Perhaps, after the Furry King has built a new lair of griffons for these griffins, and they will bring their families to move in, there will be at least one or two hundred of them, right? If you raise it well, there will be more in the future?

"It's just that they listen to my command because they are afraid of me, and if they want to listen to your command, they must use that feather!"

After Anne kicked the big guy who made her angry again, and after kicking the other party's head and whimpering, she pointed to the golden feather that Dully Fur was holding in her hand and said.

Originally, these guys refused to give in, even if Anne used the language of animals to communicate with them in a friendly way, they were so stubborn, they were so stubborn, and they would rather die than succumb to the clutches of her Queen Anne!

So, in a fit of anger, Anne simply pulled out the beautiful golden feather on the forehead of the leader in front of her! Then, she directly used all the griffins present to forcibly sign the bloodline soul contract through this feather, and made it into a magic item that can absolutely control and enslave these griffins - "Griffin Feather"!

Just a shameless guy like them, and they still want to fight with her, Queen Anne? So, after some rectification and fiddling, these guys have all become honest.

And this little golden feather is actually a tool to control, enslave and summon these guys, as long as you hold it, these griffons and their bloodline descendants will all be decided by the Dull Hair King in the future! And this, even if Anne gets another batch of powerful air power for the other party, it can be regarded as a modest contribution to the development of a strong farming road for Camelot?

Anyway, now that the griffons have been cleaned up, that's probably what it means.

"I see!"

"Great! It's really great! Thank you Anne...... I thought, I know what I have to do! ”

Holding the tough feather in his hand, he secretly gave an order, and then the huge white griffin walked in front of him with a small creeping step.

"Really, it's amazing, you can really command them with just one thought?"

Stretching out her hand and slowly stroking its huge sharp beak and thick head feathers, listening to the other party's low whimpering and chirping like a flattering oneself, Artoria faintly felt that the ambition she had when she was just king seemed to have returned?!

Now it seems that even if they have a difficult start to the game at Camelot, they have a lot of hole cards in their hands.

Now that she calculates carefully, she already has a hundred powerful flame knights who can come back from the dead, and there are so many aerial beasts or griffon knights that are about to appear, so what is she afraid of? Even if she really doesn't have a knight of the round table in the future, she has the confidence to stick to it!

She firmly believes that one day, she will be able to unite Britain and expel the ignorant barbarians who will invade and slaughter their Celtic people!

"Play whatever you want, but I'll tell you, these guys are very good at eating, better than you pot-bellied woman!"

"They have to eat at least a fifth of their body weight a day, or they'll eat everyone but you if they starve!"

When Anne noticed that the ladies and guards of the palace had come to see the commotion, she grimaced at them, and then threatened, and frightened them into retreating for a long distance.

However, this is not Anne's nonsense!

Because, the griffin is a bird of prey (beast) they are like this, and they can not eat grass like horses, if they are not given food, then the knight riding on it is the war lunch it carries with it, and when it is hungry and cannot find food, it is useless to persuade anyone!

"Delicious? Rest assured, it's not a problem at all! ”

"I'll let the tax collector build ranches and buy livestock, anyway, we have gold now, and we can easily afford them!"

Artoria didn't care at all about the other party's habit of eating.

Such a good kind of air mount can't be able to fly and fight with knights, and even they themselves have great strength and combat ability, like this thing, even if she Artoria smashes the pot and sells iron, even if she changes her three meals a day to only eat two meals a day, it is to ensure that she will keep them!

Now, she's already imagining it......

When the battle against the enemy was not yet in formation, her griffon knights were the first to launch powerful spear throws or other attacks from the air against the enemy's formation...... And then, when the enemy begins to disorganize, morale becomes low, or is about to rout and flee, does her ground troops rush up and pick up the pieces directly and easily?

"Whatever you want, I'm going to get something to eat now...... Luckily they appeared early, so if I was hungry, I'd have to roast them and eat them! ”

"What do you see, you have grown so big, if you really want to eat it, I must eat you first!"

As he jumped into the castle, a griffon lying on the side of the road glanced up at Anne with some grumbling, but Anne soon slapped Timbers on the other man's head with Tybbs, which she was carrying, and immediately whimpered and shrank back to the other side.

It's just a useless big bird, and its leaders have been cleaned up by her, so it dares to come out and stare at it?

"Wait!"

"Annie, how the hell am I going to place them now?"

Seeing that the other party was leaving, Artoria looked at the large group of griffins in front of her but was a little difficult, after all, feeding horses or something, she was good at it, thinking that at the beginning, she had fed her adoptive father's brother Kai a horse for ten years, whether it was grass or brushing horses, walking horses or something, she was very good at it!

But like now, like these big guys in front of you, how should they arrange and fiddle with it? If you still use the same set to deal with war horses, then it must not be feasible, right? Because, these big guys are more like a flock of eagles than pegasus!

"Either find a random place to raise them first, or slaughter them all and eat meat!"

With a casual hand behind her, Anne ignored the stinky flat-haired beasts outside, and ran straight to the castle.

She didn't like to sit on those griffins......

Because they are covered in hair, they definitely don't usually take a bath, and the strange smell of their bodies is very strong, and they always smell very disgusting...... Moreover, with sharp eyes, she also found that there seemed to be some very small disgusting lice in the feathers?

Anyway, she'd rather summon her own fire eagle than ride those living flying creatures, all dirty and dirty!

"Okay, I got ......"

It's impossible to eat, Artoria thinks that it is impossible to eat this magical creature in this life, and now, she should not have any good way except to find a place to provide for it well!

She vaguely remembered that to the north of Camelot City, there seemed to be a small castle fortress that had been vacated?

Because, there are very few active soldiers here in Camelot, and they are basically stationed directly in the city, so the fortress guarding Camelot City outside has been vacant, and it seems that there are only a few soldiers guarding the gate there......

In that case, it would be better to just make room for somewhere, enlarge and tear down the windows of that castle, and let them live in the castle fortress where they can shelter from the wind and rain, as long as they are ordered not to disturb the villagers and livestock, and then send them a little food at regular intervals every day, presumably they can be properly settled, right?

She might even be able to transfer the guards directly!

After all, with such ferocious and large griffin creatures living in it, not to mention those little thieves, even ten times the number of enemy armies, they may not dare to approach them easily, right?

"Hey! It's a shame......"

"Tibbs, we should have secretly left one to roast and eat! I don't think I've ever eaten a griffon, either in the world of Azeroth or here! ”

On the way to the restaurant, Anne suddenly said with some regret. She forgot about this matter just now, but now that she thinks about it, it's really a pity.

Because, if you grab it and grill it or boil it now, it doesn't seem like a good thing?

(Dear little master, those griffins, they have eaten people, they are cannibalistic animals, can their meat still be eaten?)

(´◉㉨◉)？

- If it were Tiebs himself, it wouldn't matter, even if he swallowed the flesh, bones, and soul together, but it wouldn't be good for humans, right? ）

"Why not?"

(for they have eaten men...... ）

"Tibers, don't you know that the whole planet is a closed cycle, maybe the moisture, constituent elements, etc. in the meals that everyone eats have been circulating in the bodies of countless dead people?"

(o´ω`o)ﾉ

As a powerful and knowledgeable arcane archmage, Anne knew a lot about both the magic side and the science side, so it wasn't too difficult for her to understand.

（…… ）

(●｀･(ｴ)･´●)！？

(That...... Little master, you seem to be about to go to dinner, but don't you feel sick or uncomfortable when you talk about this kind of thing now?

- Tibbs is a little bit confused, this little master of it usually loves cleanliness so much, how can he talk about these things now and look heartless, is it really not affected at all? ）

"Loop! Whether it's magic or other energies and substances, the cycle is what it is and what is going on! And this, at the same time, is the true meaning of life, why should I be disgusted? ”

"Tibbs, you're so weird!"

"When you were on earth, didn't you look at the animal world? In nature, from lions, tigers, crocodiles, to insects, bacteria and pesky microorganisms, they are not all 'you eat me, I eat you'...... Isn't that just something normal? ”

╮(￣▽￣)╭

The meaning of life and the cycle of matter, etc., this is a very profound and interesting thing, just understand this matter, she will not take it seriously! If something delicious is placed in front of her, she can eat it happily!

As for how they came to be, and where their composition appeared, she wouldn't care! Just like the farming methods that the farmers, uncles and aunts learned from Rome outside, they all use poop to compost them, so don't they eat them?

(Whatever you want.....)

(●￣(ｴ)￣●)

(But there's one more thing...... Don't you think that the griffon knights have been outdated for countless years, little master? The little one thinks you should arm those soldiers with machine guns, cannons, planes, missiles, and the creations of the Multi-Turret Cult! Suddenly, it was pushed flat!

- Out of boredom, Tibbs went into slander. It felt that it didn't seem to have much chance to play here, so it pouted vigorously, intending to let its little master quickly push the world? ）

"Huh?"

"Little Bear! Don't you want face anymore, are you ready to bully other earth natives on this planet? It's still post-Roman, iron and bronze are mixed, and even magic hasn't begun to fade away, so you're about to go to the age of steam? ”

(´•༝•`)

Holding the bear that she was carrying in front of her with both hands, Anne asked curiously as she walked forward.

(Don't!) ）

"And why?"

(Because the small body is a shadow bear, it has never had a face, and it has no skin, and there is no such strange thing as a skin!)

- That's right, it's Uncle Tibbs a shadow creature, about the same as an elemental creature, and if you remove the appearance of this enchanted bearskin toy, it's really almost one of those translucent shadow energy collections, and the skin of the skin is a meaningless thing to it. ）

“……”

"Tibbs, I seem to understand a little......"

"You should mean to say: I have my own face but shameless, right?!"

In the blink of an eye, Anne seemed to grasp some kind of vague implication of a certain badass bear, so the black energy began to gather in the back of her head, and the daily blow to the bear was on its way.

(Nope!) Little master, you have thought too much, the little one didn't mean that at all just now!! ）

(Wait, don't do it yet, the little confess: yes, it's the little one who has no face, it's the little one who has no face...... It really doesn't matter if you have a face or not...... ）

“……”

Boom!!

"But now I want to beat you up more and more!"

(Protest, protest...... ）

"Protests are ineffective! Come to your senses, you nasty bad guy! ”

Boom!

——————

"Archbishop, you're finally back?"

Archbishop Padraic, who had just returned to the cathedral west of Camelot, was about to open the door and enter his room, when he met a nun in his church, and when he saw the other party saluting and greeting him, he had to stop his intention to go in, and instead bowed slightly to the other party.

"Yes, now that those man-eating monsters outside have been subdued and captured, you don't have to worry as much about going out in the future as you have been in the past two days."

Seeing the other party's inquiring eyes, Padraic, who knew what the nun really wanted to know, smiled and said this.

In the past two days, the man-eating monsters outside have caused a lot of uproar, causing the nearby residents and farmers, including the clergy in their church, to dare not appear in the wilderness casually, for fear that a fierce man-eating beast will suddenly pounce down on the sky, and catch them, take them away and eat them!

"Really?"

"That's great, then, Archbishop, you're busy now, I'm going to tell the others the good news!"

With that, the nun quickly turned around and walked briskly to the rest of the corridor.

Since she was the first to know about the man-eating monsters, she would have to tell the other priests and nuns that they would no longer have to stay in the church or the church district all day to avoid danger.

"Wait!"

"My room...... Did any of you clean it today? ”

For some reason, Padraic could faintly smell the fragrance wafting from the open wooden door of his room? So, under his doubts, he thought that a nun had helped him clean it.

"It doesn't seem like there yet, we all clean a fixed few days a month...... Why, archbishop, do you need someone to do the cleaning now? ”

Although she did not know why the archbishop would ask, the nun answered seriously.

“……”

"Hmm...... Still don't need it, you go down first, I want to rest for a while. ”

Frowning and thinking about it, Padraic shook his head and waved his hand to let him leave first.

“……”

Squeak-click!

Pushing the door open and entering, and making sure that it had a fresh smell that did not belong to him, nor to anyone else in the church, Padraic closed the door gently, and then clasped his hands together, and did not go any further, but stood behind the wooden door.

"I am Padraic, Bishop of Camelot Cathedral, and I wonder which lost lamb came to my place as a bad old man?"

"If you're trying to get money, you're going to be disappointed......"

"I don't have a single Ori (gold coin) in my chest, and I have only two dinars (silver coins) and eight As...... And they're the same ones they were stored last year......"

Sensing that there was indeed a stranger in his house, Padraic slowly scanned every corner of the room with cloudy eyes, and spoke slowly.

The fresh and natural smell, like the scent of the grass and flowers of the forest, must have been brought about by something on a stranger's person...... Anyway, that kind of smell should definitely not belong to this church of theirs! It's just that after he glanced around twice, there really wasn't anyone in this room except himself?

However, the smell was still very strong, and there was a certain warm feeling, not like it was left after leaving...... Therefore, he felt that a certain guy must still be hiding here......

Perhaps, under the bed?

"Huh!"

"Padraic, you're still so smart!"

At this moment, when Padraic was a little tempted to move, at last, a slightly familiar voice sounded in the room, and then, a man who was sitting in his chair and wearing a cloak began to gradually appear in the dimly lit room.

“……”

"It's you, you're Merlin? Yes, what other wizard would dare to come to me, a servant of God, but you? ”

Staring at the figure who happened to be sitting at his desk for a while, until it slightly matched one of his impressions, he Padraic nodded in understanding, and breathed a sigh of relief, confirming the identity and existence of the other party.

As long as it's not a guy who is here to steal or find trouble, that's fine, Merlin and him should be acquaintances, and they won't come to their disadvantage.

"Alright, put away that magic spell in your hand, you should know, it doesn't have any effect on an existence like mine!"

"Padrak, although our relationship has not been very good, it is not bad enough to start a fight when we meet, right?"

Hidden in the darkness and cloak, Merlin, who couldn't see his face clearly, playfully taunted Padraic who was guarding himself with his hands clasped together, signaling that he didn't have to pretend to play that little trick in front of him.

After all, he Merlin is also a legendary great magician, and if he can't even deal with a clergyman of the church, then he will be blind to this resounding name.

"If you could come and visit me officially instead of sneaking into my room, I certainly wouldn't be wary of you."

"After all these years, your bad character is still not so likable!"

After shaking his head and directly dissipating the defensive spirit in his hand, Padraic walked to the window tremblingly and pushed open the closed wooden window, intending to make the air in the room a little more natural, so as not to be filled with the strange smell that inadvertently escaped from the other party's body.

I don't know why, he Padraic always feels that today's Merlin seems to be a little different from his impression? However, he couldn't say what was different...... Anyway, it just makes him feel very twisted.

It's a strange feeling, you know, they've known each other for many years, and although they don't see each other too often, it's only a few times a year...... After all, the other party's whereabouts are very strange and mysterious, of course, a little different from him, a clergyman who needs to show up every day to educate the herdsmen, but it is not as weird as it is today.

Anyway, he felt that something must be wrong today, what the hell......

"Lord Merlin!"

"Why did you only appear now, I even thought that you had been burned to death by that little witch named Annie, what a pity, I wanted to make a confession for you!"

A few days ago, when there was turmoil in Camelot, the former archmage of Camelot's court never appeared, and just let that Artoria and the little witch mess up and make people feel panic here...... At the beginning, Padraic really thought that there was some kind of accident in this Merlin, otherwise, how could the other party's position as a court mage be snatched by a little girl?

“……”

"Why, Padraic, I listen to your tone...... I'm surprised that I didn't get burned to death by that guy?! ”

Merlin didn't say why he was there now, but stared at the archbishop who was standing in front of the window and looking out of the church with some displeasure.

"No, on the contrary, you're not burned to death, that's normal, Your Excellency Wizard Merlin, isn't it?"

“……”

"Forget it, Padrak, don't mention the differences and contradictions caused by our different beliefs, after so many years, we can be regarded as old friends."

"Now, let's talk about something else."

Merlin heard the other party's intention to call himself a wizard instead of a magician, and it was obvious that the other party was still a little dissatisfied with him Merlin? However, he didn't want to dwell too much on these things now, because he had more important things to do, and he didn't come here to talk about these things with this guy.

"Okay......"

"Merlin, I've always wanted to ask you...... That little girl, the one named Annie, what is her identity and where does she come from? Also, her strength can even beat you away? ”

The identity of Artoria Pendragon, or Arthur Pendragon, he Padraic already knew, and the original matter of the sword in the stone 'drawing the sword to choose the king' was entrusted by this Merlin to preside over and build momentum, but the result......

Forget it, don't mention those broken things now, it's not his fault anyway!

However, he was very puzzled by the little girl who suddenly appeared, the little witch named Anne Hasta!

It seems that the other party has never been seen in Camelot, and has never heard of any contact with the Artoria or the old Sir Actor family...... So, why did she suddenly come out of nowhere and interfere in the affairs of King Arthur, and also made everything into the current bad situation? He always wanted to know about these things!

Well, he seems to be thinking about something wrong again......

Anyway, it's hard for him to judge what happened during the chaotic time before, but for now, it seems that the two little girls are doing a good job, not only quelling all the rebellions of Camelot, but also implementing a series of policies that benefit farmers and heavy business, and are tax cuts and large-scale construction, so that Camelot has miraculously slowly recovered his vitality, and there is a trend of getting better and better?

So, strictly speaking, it doesn't seem like things are too bad?

“……”

However, Merlin did not answer this question immediately, his face hidden in the hood was slightly lowered, probably thinking about how to answer Padraic's question.

"Unfortunately, I don't know ...... either"

"You may not believe it, but I've never met each other, and I've never even heard of them!"

"However, based on my contact and battle with her at the time, as well as my observations during this time, the other side is very strong, very strong...... Even if she doesn't show much, most of the time, it's like a joke......"

"But, with all due respect, even those gods who haunt the gods are probably like that, right?"

Finally, Merlin whispered what he knew after Archbishop Patrick had waited a little impatiently.

Think about how the other party behaves when they fight with themselves, isn't it just that they are messing around all the time?

Thanks to his legendary magician and British sword master, Merlin, despite his full efforts, he couldn't force the other party to go all out or take it seriously...... Even if the other party had already thrown out the very fierce flame bear at that time, it was probably like some nobleman with a bad personality, just to get the sick pleasure or pastime when the hound chased the prey, right?

That damn imp......

Now, think of the time when he wantonly set fire to the endless sea of fire purgatory in his own Avalon Phantom, in his ideal country, but he was able to survive the flames unscathed, and even smiled happily and commanded the flaming giant bear that could not be killed to chase and kill him...... As soon as he thought of the evil little girl who was hidden in the flames, he Merlin couldn't help but shudder!

He even wondered if the other party would be a demon god in the Burning Hell?

Otherwise, how could it be possible to be in that level of flames without doing any protection itself and still unscathed? On the other hand, he Merlin himself, after only being burned for a short while, he couldn't hold on and ran away first.

"Gods?!"

"Humph! Stupid view! ”

"Except for God, except for Christ, except for the Virgin Mary, the other false gods have long since disappeared or fled, and this world can no longer accommodate them!"

Hearing that Merlin had described the little girl who knew how to do a little magic as a god, Archbishop Padraic turned from the window on the spot and stared at each other with blazing eyes, and loudly refuted.

That little girl, he just had a close contact today, and the other party is just a little witch with great power! As for temperament, it's probably just a quirky and wanton little girl, where does she look like a god?

Even if it's the gods of other pagans, even if it's the gods of those polytheistic religions, I'm afraid none of them are like that little ghost, right?

He Padraic firmly believes that the little girl is actually just a child with great power, and that's it, nothing else!

In short, apart from the sanctity of their church, he would never accept anything that could be called 'God'! Even if there really is, they are all false gods, there is absolutely no other possibility, and he will never compromise on this!

“……”

"Padrak, please don't be so nervous, I'm not here today to argue with you about these issues, does she have anything to do with you and me?"

"I'm just a mage, and I've never believed in your church."

Glancing at each other faintly, Merlin sighed a little helplessly, he just sighed a little, what did this old rival suddenly become so excited?

"Merlin, it's dangerous to think like you just now, then that's blasphemy for our church!"

"Although that little girl is indeed strong, and she has captured a large group of powerful griffins that only exist in mythology today, that only says about the strength of the other party, not anything else."

Padraic whispered the matter again with some intent, trying to hide some disturbing thoughts in his mind.

In any case, even those griffins, those griffons are the mounts of the gods in the legend...... However, that doesn't mean that the little girl will be a living god! If it were Merlin, I am afraid that he would definitely be able to catch those griffins, so does it mean that this Merlin is a god?

This guy who hides his head and brinkles into someone's bedroom is nothing more than a heretic, an unbeliever, and an evil wizard, nothing more!

"You say those griffins...... Yes, I see ...... too"

Merlin had thought of helping the people of Carmellot to expel the griffons, to the inaccessible forests of the mountains, or to the great 'emerald' island west of the British Sea...... Because it is vast and sparsely populated, and there are many products, whether it is forests, grasslands or wild animals, it is definitely suitable for the survival of those fantasy species.

But who would have thought that little girl, as soon as the other party made a move, she would catch all the fantasy seeds that came to commit in one go! And even, those who are almost impossible to be tamed by mortals are submissive?

This kind of method, even Merlin is a little admired!

The affairs of the magicians, the archbishop in front of him, this stubborn old opponent may not know much, but as a legendary archmagician, he Merlin himself can often take a small peek at the big picture and guess the approximate strength of the other party from the subtleties of inadvertently.

It is precisely because of this that he just had that kind of unrealistic thoughts and feelings.

"Forget it! Let's not talk about these things for now! ”

"Padraric, that's right, the reason why I came to you secretly today is actually to ask you to do me a small favor."

After remembering the events that had happened in his mind, especially the image of the little girl grabbing dozens of griffons and enslaving them, and riding them and flying away with cheers, Merlin slowly looked at the archbishop of the church, who was still a little angry.

He didn't plan to talk too much with the other party, so he was going to cut straight to the point and say the real purpose of his coming here today, so that he could arrange his next plan of action, which was very important.

"Speak! Lord Merlin! ”

"Only, I don't guarantee that I will be able to help you."

After taking a deep look at the other party and thinking carefully for a while, Padraic nodded slowly.

Even Merlin needs to ask himself for help, and it won't be a trivial matter! Therefore, Padraic did not directly boast that he would definitely be able to help the other party, but was ready to refuse.

"I always thought that it was too dangerous for that little girl to stay with Artoria!"

"So, I want to be able to get a new identity with you, and then go and get close to Artoria, to the queen that Camelot is about to be crowned! I'm afraid you know how much effort I've put into her, Archbishop...... So, whether it's for Uther or anything else, I'm sure I'm not going to ignore her! I don't want her to be led to destruction by that little witch......"

"There are some things that fate has already predestined...... If you rush to struggle and resist, it will be in vain. ”

As if he was afraid that the other party would not hear clearly, Merlin, who was still sitting upright in the chair, slowly and slowly said his thoughts and his purpose in this quiet bedroom, word by word.

In any case, Artoria was the brainchild of himself and King Uther, and he had personally taught him a daughter-like existence for ten years, and he would never allow that little girl to take the other party to do anything wrong with Camelot!

Of course, he also had to guard against that bastard called Morgan! Anyway, Merlin has always felt that the reason why the little witch named Annie appeared was absolutely inseparable from that Morgan!

"I see, I think I understand......"

"But, Master Merlin, what are you going me to do? Pardon me, you've seen that little girl's skills, even if I can give you a new identity, but I don't think your spells can deceive the other party? ”

Thinking of this, Padraic frowned and pondered for a while, then shook his head regretfully.

It's not that he doesn't want to help, it's that there's no possibility of achieving it at all! Identity or something, this matter is very simple, anyway, he is the archbishop of the Church of the Diocese of Camelot, and he uses his power for personal gain, and casually arranges an identity for the other party who can access Queen Camelot, then there is no problem at all!

However, this Merlin, the other party has never beaten that little girl in a fight, how can he be confident that he can deceive the other party? When the time comes, if he is accidentally exposed and involves the church, and involves him, the archbishop, then he regrets that he has no place to cry!

As an old friend, he can help the other party to a limited extent without infringing on the interests of the church, but the current situation is obviously very detrimental to the development of the church!

Therefore, in this matter, he Padraic is really more than willing to help, it's not that he doesn't want to help, but he doesn't dare to help......

Why did he choose to do this kind of troublesome thing that has no benefit, but may only be harmful, and the probability of failure is still very high? It doesn't matter if it's at the expense of his own interests, but ...... It is absolutely not permissible to sacrifice the interests of the church and hinder the development of the church.

"Of course I do, and I'm prepared!"

Merlin had tried it just now, and the treasure that he had deliberately found to disguise his aura and even soul fluctuations seemed to be very useful, just now he was not far from the scene where the other party captured the griffin, and he also firmly believed that the other party's perception must have felt him, but there was no reaction!

This seems to be enough to show that he has hidden from the other party? That's why Merlin made up his mind!

As long as the other party doesn't come to examine him, the identity he wants to disguise will definitely not be exposed! But who would try to check on a stranger for no reason as soon as they met?

"If it's Merlin's identity, then I guess it's definitely not possible, but ...... What if it's Melly?! ”

Merlin, who had been sitting in her chair, stood up suddenly, and walked not far from the archbishop, and when the light outside the window shone clearly on her, she gently removed the taupe cloak from her head, revealing a beautiful silver hair, blue eyes, and a beautiful maiden face that did not look like a mortal.

"Your Excellency Archbishop Padraic, Melly Ambrosius, the Temple nun of the Church of Rome, has come to report to you from the Kingdom of Camelot of Britain on the orders of the Pope!"

Merlin's thick male voice turned into a crisp and beautiful female voice in an instant, and then, a smiling and delicate face, appeared a few steps away from Archbishop Padraic, who had once again become stunned.

That's right, all the things that 'he' Merlin had already arranged! A small thing like giving yourself a reasonable identity directly won't bother the other party too much at all, and it's very simple to do, isn't it?

Now, as long as the other party acknowledges her as a nun from the temple of the Church in Rome and publicizes her existence to the outside world, then she can solve the rest of the matter herself.

For example, slowly get in touch with that Artoria, gain the trust of the other party little by little, and then, gradually guide and influence the other party's thoughts, so as not to deviate too much from his expectations?

"Wait! I seem to be a little confused by you......"

Merlin ...... Or rather, Lord Melly...... Who do you really are, are you a man or a woman?! ”

It's a question that Padraic is desperate to get to know ☃☃ right now
