Chapter 18 Britain is destined to be ruled by the Queen
"You admit his identity?"
"Yes. ”
After giving a general account of the situation, Ethan was surprised to find that Arthur had chosen a treatment that had never appeared in countless legends.
There has been no denial of recognition, nor has it implicated countless young children of their age. Arthur, after establishing Mordred's identity, directly admitted that he was his child.
"Wait!"
Ethan listened for a while, and suddenly found the point.
"Kid?"
"Hmm. ”
Arthur wasn't surprised that Ethan was able to detect this, and he remembered that his former partner had always reacted quickly: "Maybe it was because that sister of mine was disturbed when she was casting a spell, so there was something wrong with the spell, and in the end she didn't give birth to a son as she originally thought." ”
After all, he had checked various versions of legends and even wild history, and he had always been wary of his sister, so he noticed that something was wrong when there was a slight abnormality, and personally led the guard knight to kill his sister Morgan, wanting to stop her bad behavior.
It's a pity that Arthur's action was still a step late, and when he arrived, Morgan's spell had already reached the final stage, although it affected the effect of the spell, but it did not destroy Morgan's spell, but only caused some impact, which made the final effect of this spell deviate.
Faced with this situation, Arthur did not force Morgan to kill the child, nor did he leave the child out, but let the child be born smoothly and raise and teach him wholeheartedly.
Mordred, King Arthur's illegitimate son and nephew, is known to have a story of King Arthur's half-sister Morgan Le Fay using special means to confuse King Arthur and eventually give birth to a son - divided into different versions of King Arthur's drunkenness and then using drugs to make King Arthur think of her as Queen Guinevia, and using magic to confuse King Arthur.
Of course, in a certain world, it is an artificial person created by spells - because Arthur in that world is a girl, and the above methods are useless.
Ethan is supposed to be in a world closer to the mythical Arthurian world, as evidenced by Arthur's sister Morgan's knowledge of spells.
But what I never expected was that there would be this kind of change: Mordred has become a girl? Friend, you went to the wrong set, right?
"Because it's a girl, that's why you admit this child?"
"There is an element to this. ”
In this era, the probability of a girl inheriting the throne is too low, of course, the most important thing is that Arthur is confident that he can keep his children from going down the 'old path'.
"Looks like you've done well so far. ”
However, it is definitely not an easy task to turn a bear child on the right path.
"I'm already aware of that. ”
Hearing Arthur say this, Ethan had already guessed what Arthur wanted to do him a favor, which was nothing more than taking Mordred out for a long time and teaching her well, maybe after broadening her horizons, she would be able to mature quickly?
"I want you to teach her the way you taught me. ”
Ethan was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything, and Bedwell on the side was already stunned.
As one of King Arthur's Knights of the Guards and a member of the Knights of the Round Table, Bedwell's ability is absolutely unquestionable, and his IQ is absolutely online, and he immediately understood the meaning of King Arthur's words.
"Your Majesty!"
Arthur reached out and stopped Bedwell's words, not letting him continue.
"Lockhart doesn't have the ability to run the country, and Mordred has a lot more potential. ”
Although Morgan's magic was affected and his son became a daughter, it was not all bad, and although the slightly out-of-control magical energy nearly killed the unformed child, the fetus that survived the catastrophe was a blessing in disguise and gained a very brilliant talent - equivalent to being strengthened by magic from birth.
From the moment she was born, Mordred was naturally magical. Her magic grew stronger, and when she was almost old, she learned how to control her magic from her mother, and her strength continued to increase at an alarming rate.
Although Mordred is not very old, she has become one of the strongest people in the Knights of the Round Table, and she is crazy about reaping prestige with her extraordinary strength.
From this point on, it is very different from the legendary Mordred, who does not have the prestige and status of this world.
Ethan suddenly remembered what Arthur had said to Merlin before: wait until the right time to put the king's position in the right hands.
"Do you think Mordred is suitable?"
"If you don't try it, how do you know if it's suitable or not?"
Arthur didn't know if Mordred was suitable, but he was willing to give the kid a chance. At least for now, Mordred is very talented, and if he grows up smoothly, he can become a knight who is even better than himself - but he is not sure if he can be a good king.
One thing is for sure, if Mordred is allowed to stay with Morgan, she will definitely not be able to become a good king, so Arthur wants to send Mordred to Ethan and follow the path he has taken: broaden her horizons and increase her knowledge, which will help her understand more truth, and at the same time, don't take her own strength too seriously - Ethan has too many people who can crush her in terms of strength.
Without the strong combat power that she was most proud of, she could notice the countless shortcomings that were covered by her strength just like she did back then.
If she can correct those shortcomings, Arthur is willing to give her a chance, even if it is not a big deal to put the throne in her hands - right? By the time Arthur fulfills his dream, his personal prestige will be at its peak, and no one in the whole kingdom will question his decision, but it is nothing to let his daughter inherit the throne.
"Anyway...... Britain was destined to be ruled by the Queen in the future. ”
Arthur ended the conversation with such a joke, and Ethan slowly returned to the room he had already arranged.
Not surprisingly, he saw Diana.
"Judging by your expression, did Arthur make a troublesome request?"
Ethan waved his hand, neither of them was an ordinary person, there was no fighting, no overload of workouts, and no happy skills today, so they didn't feel tired even if they didn't rest.
"No, just a little surprised, it seems that I have a lot of impact on the world. ”
If he hadn't come to this world, Merlin wouldn't have been able to let Arthur follow him everywhere on a whim; he hadn't gone to other worlds, so naturally he wouldn't have known the legend of King Arthur and other deeds, and he would have known his future; if he didn't know the future, he wouldn't have been wary of his sister, and he wouldn't have affected Mordred's birth at a critical moment.
Mordred would then be a 'normal boy' as in the legend, and then because of Merlin's reminder that this child would ruin the country, and King Arthur would banish all children of similar age because he couldn't find any of Mordred's, causing Mordred to grow up outside and eventually return to King Arthur as a knight.
Eventually, as legend has it, King Arthur rebelled against Lancelot in order to seize the throne, forcing Arthur to withdraw his army and confront Mordred's rebels, and finally fought King Arthur in a decisive battle at Camran (Battle of the Sword Railing), where he was killed.
Arthur would be mortally wounded in the battle and die soon after, and the kingdom he had created would fall apart.
Of course, with current developments, things can't turn out like that.
In particular, Arthur also let himself take Mordred out to 'study', as long as Mordred can satisfy Arthur, he will even become the first heir of this kingdom, and inherit the throne at the right time for Arthur.
Whatever the reason, Mordred had no reason to rebel, and she even had to do everything in her power to preserve King Arthur's rule, unless she didn't want to inherit the throne and was bent on destroying the country her father had founded - if she did, her own mother Morgan wouldn't help him.
"Aren't these changes good?"
Diana, of course, knew what the story of King Arthur was, and after listening to Ethan's changes, she didn't think anything was wrong, and even felt that this kind of 'happy ending' was much better than the almost dead original story.
"Everybody gets what they want, how nice is that!"
"I think that's good, too. ”
Ethan didn't bother with this in the first place, sometimes he went to a certain world, and what he did was just to change the ending that made him unhappy in the first place.
As for influencing a lot of things that cause the plot to develop in an unknown direction, this is even more of a concern.
So far, except for the dark world he went to at the beginning, he just made a soy sauce and didn't cause any changes, which of the rest of the world was not tossed by him and deviated from the original plot for eight hundred miles?
"And what are you struggling with?"
"I'm thinking...... If Mordred joins us, isn't there too many kids on board?"
Strictly speaking, Laura can't be considered a child anymore, but Ethan habitually looks at her with the same eyes as before, so he has eaten an unknown number of white eyes, and he still can't change this established impression.
Even Shirley has grown up a lot now, getting closer and closer to the agent Shirley in the sixth part of the Resident Evil game version of her previous life.
However, the question was clearly the wrong one, and Diana just patted the empty seat next to her, and then hooked her finger at Ethan with her other hand.
"I think you have too few children on board, and you could have a few more. ”
