Chapter 319: Ferry on the Lake

There was a creaking sound on the lake, and an old wooden boat gradually emerged from the fog. At the head of the bed of the wooden boat stood an old branch, on which hung a broken oil lamp, and by the light of the lamp, the fog around the wooden boat was dispelled. A woman in a wide cloak stood quietly in the middle of the boat, holding a long oar in her hand.

"Aunt Mazo, why are you here to carry the oars?" said Cúchulainn, with a hint of joy in his eyes when he saw the boat.

"Our nine sisters have been holding the oars for a hundred years each according to the regulations, and they are rotated in turn, and the eldest sister Morgan is sleeping. Mazo said lightly, with no joy or sorrow in his voice. The Nine Fairies of Avalon are ferrymen and ushers on the lake, and they have always been stationed on the shores of the Styx. "Your Highness Cú Chulainn, why did you knock on the door of the Divine Domain?"

"I need to meet my father, the human world has been turned upside down. In the land where we once roamed, a new and powerful religion has taken our place. The death knell of the end of France is about to ring, and I need to sound the horn of war at once!" Cú Chulainn replied respectfully. Although these nine fairies seem to be ferrymen, they are one of Luge's most trusted subordinates. When Ruger was rescued from the crystal tower by Lear, the god of the sea, and brought to the Isle of Man, it was these nine people who accompanied the god king to grow up.

"A new religion, do you mean Christ?" asked Mazzo softly as he ushered Cúchulainn aboard.

"Do you know that Christianity exists?" said Cú Chulainn.

"I've only heard of the name, but I don't know much about the rest. Mazo held the boat and remembered for a moment, "Before he fell asleep, the god-king ordered the temple's butler, Lord Merlin, to wander the human kingdom as a druid sage, hoping that he could establish a human kingdom close to Avalon while spreading his faith!"

"It's King Arthur, isn't it?" Cú Chulainn learned some rumors from the nobles, especially Arthur, who was very famous in the history of the Terran race.

"It's him, a very nice young man, who is now sleeping next to the temple of the God King, and Sister Morgan said that this person is the Lord of the Destiny of the Terrans in this land, and has incomparable prestige, and can be used by our God Kingdom!"

"I heard that Christianity was introduced by them?" said Cú Chulainn hatefully.

"No, Christianity was already present in the land before Arthur's rise. The group called themselves Celtic Christs, but their power and strength were limited. Merlin had to borrow the power of Christianity in the process of helping Arthur build the country, but at the time they had miscalculated the terrible ability of this religion to spread among the lower classes!" Mazzo shook her head, she just felt pity.

"Why lure the wolf into the house?" Cú Chulainn was a little puzzled, with the status of a druid saint, it could be said that the human kingdom was unimpeded at that time.

"Of course it's the Shadow Goddess, your tsundere Miss Morrigan loves to stir things up the rain. As Midir's mother, she felt it was only natural for her to thwart the God-King's plans. The point is that as a god, he didn't care about his identity at all, and he didn't hesitate to postpone his sleeping plan and appear in the human kingdom to cause trouble for Merlin. Mazo glanced at Cú Chulainn with deep meaning, "At that time, Lord God King had fallen into a deep sleep, and Merlin was alone and could only rely on the help of outside forces. ”

Cúchulainn fell silent with some embarrassment, and Moregan had more than just something unclear about him, so much so that his "death" was also planned by the goddess of shadows. Ruger sent Ku Chulainn to the Land of Shadows to learn art, and Ku Chulainn was full of flowers and grass in the interval between receiving the guidance of the Empress Skaha, and owed a lot of romantic debts.

As the wife of Dagda, the god of wisdom, and the de facto mistress of the Shadow Country, Morrigan is also a character who is not willing to be lonely. Because Dagda has been obsessed with ancient experiments for a long time, and even gave up the position of god-king for a time, Morrigan is free and uninhibited for most of the time. Many of the Celtic heroes of Celtic mythology have some ambiguous relationship with this bewitching goddess. So, she and Cúchulainn hit it off. It's a pity that Cúchulainn quickly empathized with him, where would a tsundere queen like Morrigan tolerate being dumped. So he also used all his calculations to bring trouble to Cú Chulainn, until he "died" on the battlefield of Ulster.

Cú Chulainn knew best about the queen's reciprocal disposition. So after hearing Mazo's ridicule, he naturally understood what kind of pressure Merlin and Arthur suffered back then.

"Won't that Merlin end up too well?" asked Cu Chulainn, cautiously, at last. He himself was calculated to death by Morrigan, if it weren't for the fact that his body had already been transformed into an undead monster by Dagda, and he had a father who was a god king, I am afraid that his current situation would be much more miserable. Needless to say, Arthur's ending is still asleep on the island after the collapse of the country. As for the druid named Merlin, he didn't think the other party would survive.

"Lord Merlin, tsk......" Mazo showed a look of embarrassment, which was an extremely exaggerated expression for the nine sisters of Avalon, who had been cold-faced all year round.

"Morrigan takes the love elixir from Angus, which causes Merlin to fall in love with a human princess named Vivien. She changed her form and appeared next to Vivien to advise her. After a series of calculations, Merlin took Vivien as a disciple and willingly taught all her spells and secrets. Mazzo said softly.

"God Father, this is a disaster!" said Cú Chulainn, with a look of fear. Although he is abusive, he also understands the horror of the magic of love. A druid who has uncovered all his hole cards, the consequences can be known without even thinking about it.

"Morrigan has caused Arthur a problem, and Merlin passes through an oak forest on his way to Vivien's aid. In this sacred grove of druids, Merlin demonstrates to Vivien the magic of becoming an oak tree, but Vivien uses this to seal Merlin in the oak tree. Mazzo nodded slightly, agreeing with Cúchulainn's statement, "After Morrigan fell asleep, Vivien gradually freed herself from her influence, and was sad when she realized her mistake. Later, she took refuge in our nine sisters, hoping to save her teacher and lover with our help!"

"Where is that oak forest?" asked Cú Chulainn suddenly.

"I don't know, I think I've been exiled to another dimension by Morrigan, and Vivien has searched for many places but can't be found!" Mazzo shook his head.
