Book 1: Believers of Light Chapter 13: Helplessness

Although, the tournament was interrupted due to the Kadrin turmoil. But this did not seem to have affected Lanceloe's interest in the slightest. The final of the tournament was held as scheduled, as the favourites Kadrin and Valkyrie were both killed. The Rose Knight Gawain is also very personable, and the winner of the championship is a well-known knight from the southern provinces of the Eloda Empire.

Then the banquet to celebrate the 60th birthday of Lancelovin III was also held as scheduled, and with the double joy of the miracle of the god of war and the birthday of His Majesty the Emperor, the city of Enikante was not a trace of dullness, and everyone fell into a sea of revelry.

On some occasions, although not much, Arthur still hated being a prince. When Arthur once again refused an invitation to dance with a noble lady, Arthur realized that it was the occasion. Arthur picked up the glass handed by his attendant and snuggled up in the corner alone, not wanting to be disturbed by others.

The recent events had made Arthur's head hurt, and Arthur didn't really want to attend the dinner, but he was persuaded by Duke Hendris.

Arthur sipped a summer fruit wine from the west coast of the Eloda Empire, and a smile tugged at the corner of Arthur's mouth with a mouthful of wonderful fruit.

In the banquet hall of the Eloda Empire, laughter filled the hall, and the aroma of food and wine overflowed to stimulate the hormones of the guests. Arthur looked at the dancing men and women in the hall with a smile on his face, and then finished another glass of fruit wine. At this time, Arthur realized that he had unknowingly drunk several glasses of wine, and it turned out that his own amount of wine was not bad, and Arthur smiled proudly.

Knight Gawain, who had already changed several dance partners on the dance floor, was dancing a waltz with Princess Elena, and Elena was completely immersed in the dance with the Rosenkavalier, not noticing that Gawain suddenly stopped and accidentally stepped on Gawain's instep. Just as Elena was apologizing to Gawain in a panic, Elena realized that Gawain was not looking at herself at all, but was staring at the hall door. Elena followed Gawain's gaze, and then froze in place as Gawain.

Arthur, who was still sipping the wine, suddenly noticed that the music of the banquet had stopped, and all the guests stopped moving and looked in one direction. Arthur put down his glass and looked in the direction the crowd was looking, and Arthur stayed where he was.

Eve Morningstar took the arm of her father, Elon Aigo, the Elven King, and slowly walked into the banquet hall. Lancelowen III stood up from his throne and walked up to Elon Aigo, laughed and gave Elon Aige a big hug, and gently kissed the back of Eve Morningstar's hand, and Eve Morningstar gently saluted Lancelowen III.

Lanceloven III accompanied Elon Aige and Eve Morningstar to the throne. Many of the guests who were still amazed automatically gave way to a road.

The dreams of that day began to appear in Arthur's mind, and the vague memories slowly became clear, and Arthur felt that his fingertips still had that gentle temperature.

Eve Morningstar was as beautiful as she had been that day, her inky hair adorned with jewel-encrusted laurels, and her white evening gown matched her beautiful collarbones so perfectly. Let the stars lose their brilliance tonight.

Arthur felt his feet suddenly out of his control, and he walked to the throne apart from the guests in front of him.

Lanceloven III looked curiously at Arthur who walked in front of him, he couldn't understand how this prince from the Kingdom of Ovit could be so rude. Elon Aige was puzzled, could it be that his seal was no longer valid, how could this kid still appear in front of him. Eve Morningstar, on the other hand, was so happy that she didn't have time to ask for his name, and she didn't expect to meet here today.

"Beautiful young lady, can I dance with you?" Arthur knelt directly in front of Eve on one knee and stretched out his right hand to say gently. Eve looked at Arthur's emerald eyes, bowed slightly, and then stepped forward to be held in Arthur's arms.

Lanceloven III jokingly asked Elon Ai Ge, "Could it be that this little prince is Your Majesty's son-in-law?" Elon Ai Ge, the elven king, smiled slightly and did not speak, but looked at Arthur with a look that was obviously not good.

Although the protagonist of the day was Lancelovin III, Arthur and Eve stole the limelight. After the banquet, in the back garden of the palace, the breeze, starlight and bright moon reflected the love between Arthur and Eve.

When Eve's hand gently caressed Arthur's face, Arthur suddenly kissed him. Time seemed to freeze in that moment, Eve's hand still resting on Arthur's face, and Arthur was deadlocked.

"Ahem" Arthur and Eve seemed to be frightened, and then the two quickly separated. Elven King Elon Aige stood in the moonlight and looked at Arthur coldly, and Arthur was a little at a loss for a while.

"Descendants of King Arthur, I fought alongside your ancestors. He was a pure and bright man, and I see these qualities in you, but the darkness that lies deep within you scares me. Eve is the light of the morning star of my race, and I can't trust her to someone who could plunge into the darkness at any moment. Elven King Elon Ai Ge said coldly.

Arthur looked at the Elven King and seemed to have some impression that they had met before. And although Arthur disagreed with the Elf King's words, he couldn't refute them, because he felt that what the Elf King said was true, and there was probably a terrifying darkness hidden in his heart, and he would fall back into the endless abyss of hell at any time. However, when he first saw Eve Morningstar, Arthur already knew that he had found his destined love, and if he gave up because of the Elven King's simple words, it would be too much to underestimate King Arthur's descendants. Arthur then spoke: "Hello, I am the prince of the Kingdom of Ovit, the son of Dregri II,...... and the Elven King interrupted Arthur's self-introduction, "Young man, I know where you come from, but you will definitely not be my daughter's home." ”

Eve Morningstar wanted to say something for Arthur, but was stopped by the Elven King's stern eyes. Arthur looked at the sad Eve and wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't say what he wanted to say, so he had to bow his head and remain silent.

"Boy, get out of here, go back to your hometown, where is the answer you are looking for. The Elven King's words seemed to come from a distance, and Arthur, who had come back to his senses, looked up to see that the Elven King Elon Aige and Eve Morningstar were gone. The cold wind of the night blew, leaving Arthur, who had lost his soul, alone and looking up at the stars.

A week after the dinner, the envoys celebrating Lanceloven III's birthday began to leave Enicanste. Arthur and his party also set off on the eighth day to return to the kingdom of Ovit, but they did not return the same way. Instead, travel to the northern part of the Eloda Empire, bypassing the Antiegos Mountains that divide the continent of Elda, and returning to the royal capital from the northern part of the Ovite Kingdom.

Arthur is twelve years old. On the continent of Elda, as long as you are at least twelve years old, you can go to three guardian spirit holy places to pass the test and awaken your guardian spirits, these three guardian spirits are hidden in the Hundred Beast Plains hidden in the depths of the Great Plains of Flower Language, the top of the polar ice in the extreme north of the Great Wilderness of Lapleia, and the legendary elven holy land - Lake Ain Lona. Among the three guardian spirit holy places, the Hundred Beast Plain is the easiest to find, but this simplicity is also relative, many people have gone deep into the Great Plains of Flower Language to search for many years and have not found it, and some people have only reached the edge of the Great Plains of Flower Language, and the entrance of the Hundred Beast Plains appears in front of them. Moreover, the test of the Hundred Beasts Plain was also the most difficult, and many people never came out after entering. The test of the top of the polar ice in the great wilderness of Laplia is also very difficult, and the road to the top of the polar ice is full of dangers, the legendary snowman and bear people haunt the far north, so that those who want to go to the top of the polar ice to awaken the guardian spirit have already died before they can see the top of the polar ice. As for the legendary elven sanctuary - Lake Ain Lona, there are very few people who have successfully reached and awakened the guardian spirit in the history of the Elda continent. Since the end of the conflict between kings thousands of years ago, the elves on the continent of Elda have only been Ain Lona. The scarcity of the population and the elves' escapist character, people on the continent have rarely been able to see the elves. Therefore, it has become a legend to be able to go to Lake Ain Lona.

The guardian spirits awakened by the three guardian spirit holy places also have their own characteristics, and most of the guardian spirits awakened by successfully passing the original test of the hundred beasts are fierce beasts, but there are also some people who awaken the legendary divine beasts, such as the guardian spirit of the founding emperor of the Holy Ovxi Empire - the golden dragon king Xsasu Malog's guardian spirit is the three-headed golden dragon of the divine beast, and the legendary King Arthur is also awakened in the original beast - the golden lion. In modern times, when he arrived in the Hundred Beast Plains, the only one who successfully awakened the divine beast was Gondolf Atwell, the archmage who served as the protector of the Elroda Empire, that is, the thunder dragon Nepsio who appeared in the Lord of Chaos's resistance battle.

The reason for this detour is that there are many people in the convoy who meet the conditions for the awakening guardian spirit, and the astrologers of the Ovite Kingdom have predicted the pattern of the appearance of the original entrance of the Hundred Beasts this time. At that time, as long as the original entrance of the Hundred Beasts is successfully found, there will be dozens of more knights with guardian spirits in the Ovite Kingdom. Although such a trip would have taken months longer than returning the same route, the convoy had plenty of time, and Arthur's spirits had obviously deteriorated after the prom incident. The whole person is listless every day. In order to prevent Arthur's state from being able to pass the test safely when he found the original entrance to the Hundred Beasts, Duke Hendries ordered the convoy to slow down. In this way, the convoy like a long river began to set off slowly to the Great Plains of Flower Language to find the entrance to the Hundred Beast Plain.

It's just that this convoy of the Ovite Kingdom didn't know that the originally peaceful and peaceful Flower Language Great Plains had become a hell of killing at the moment.

Countless beasts were biting at each other, and the bones of beasts were everywhere. Thanatos walked in the river of blood, the scythe of death in his hand constantly sucking the souls and flesh essence of these miserable beasts.

Looking at the entire Great Plains of Flower Language from the air, you will find that hundreds of hooded people dressed in black are walking among the corpses of beasts holding the skull of an unknown monster, and in the corpses of these beasts, all the blood that has not been drained is collected into the skulls held by these black-clothed hooded people, and whenever there is a blood flow into the skull, the hollow eyes of the unknown monster's skull will flash a red light.

Thanatos flew into the air with the Death Scythe in his hand, he looked around the flower-language savannah of the originally silent Ning River, and then raised the Death Scythe in his hand above his head and began to chant loudly. The chant of Tanatos spread in all directions, reaching the ears of the black-clad hooded men. All the black-clad hooded men fell to their knees at this moment, holding the skull of the unknown monster high with both hands. All the blood that had just collected in the skull turned into a blood-colored snake and flew in the direction of Thanatos. If you look closely, the blood is dull when it collects into the skull, but it has a bright red color when it flies out, which seems to be the skull has a purifying and purifying effect.

When all the blood flowed into the Death Scythe in Thanatos' hand, he watched as the worn-out Death Scythe shed a patch of rust that took on its original color.

The remnant sun of the evening of the flower language prairie is like blood, and the killing that lasts for a day makes the sunset stained with a touch of demonic blood.
