C19 The Dragon and the King of Uther

While Lil'Dino was carrying Brunhilde to look for a water source, Merlin also arrived at the castle near the stone array, the Carmelo City Castle. If Lil'Dino was here, he would find out that Merlin didn't look young. Instead, he looked young. He had turned into a long white beard with deep wrinkles on his forehead. He looked like a sanctimonious old Dryad.

"Oh, Merlin, my friend, welcome!" As Merlin walked into the hall, the king sitting on the throne stood up. He opened his arms to welcome him. This king was a thin but energetic middle-aged man. His sharp eyes and straight beard revealed his firm will. He wore a red cloak and a red dragon was drawn on his chest armor.

"Hello, King Uther. You look good today." Merlin bowed to the king, but the king waved his hand. He chuckled and patted Merlin's shoulder, "There is no need to be so reserved. As a Great Dryad, your status is not inferior to a king like me. Let me guess, you came to report to me. The new 'Sacred Stone' that appeared in the center of the temple, right? "

"That's right, King, I came precisely to tell you the prophecy." Merlin's expression was quite solemn. "The content of the prophecy needs to be told to you individually. Please find a secret room so that this secret won't be leaked."

"I understand, please come with me." King Uther also understood that Merlin was going to say an important prophecy, so he personally led Merlin to a secret room.

"Alright, let's talk about it now. What is the prophecy this time?" After cautiously locking the door, King Uther turned around and said, "The Red Dragon has already arrived with the Sacred Stone, but the radiance of the Divine Sword has been concealed. Then, when will the red dragon flag that symbolizes the soul of Celtic be able to be spread across the entire Blbion? "

"My king, although I'm sorry to tell you such a prophecy, However, you won't be able to complete this achievement. " Merlin said with a slightly sorrowful expression, "King Uther, the Red Dragon brought the Sacred Stone, although it indicated the victory of the Red Dragon in Celtic. But at the same time, it also means that you are not far from your end. However, your son will receive your flag. Pull it out. The holy sword that symbolizes the God's Chosen King leads the loyal and brave knights. Stab the Red Dragon Flag across the entire Blbion. "

"However, I don't have any children." King Uther sighed. "You know, ever since I saw that beautiful immortal girl and spent the night with her, I have never had any feelings for a mortal girl..."

"No, you have children." Merlin slowly shook his head and smiled, "In fact, after that night, that Fairy girl who fell in love with you already had your child. After the Queen used magic to observe, she found out that your child was a little prince. "

"Really? Great!" King Uther was so happy that his heart almost jumped out of his chest. The excited king was pacing back and forth in the secret chamber. He kept muttering, "I want to bring him back, I want him to inherit my throne..."

"But, his identity will be a problem." Merlin poured a bucket of cold water on the excited king, "Although that young Fey girl loves you, she won't be able to become your queen. You and her can only meet in the legendary Avalon, which is also the island of heroic spirits in Tirnan-Og. "

"Then, my child, my little prince? King Uther immediately became anxious. He grabbed Merlin's arm and anxiously asked.

"Don't worry, King, your son will come back. But you should understand that if you want him to become your heir, He needs a noble female human as his mother - - - at least in name, even if that would make his identity seem like a rather disgraceful illegitimate child. However, he is still your child. " Merlin said," Your child will pull out that Sword in the Stone, and then his identity will be revealed. Before that, he will be hidden, but don't worry. He will receive a good education, whether in terms of knowledge or martial arts. I found a very good teacher... or perhaps two. After inheriting your position, he will lead the loyal and brave knights. Spread the Red Dragon War Flag across the entire Blbion and become the eternal king that rules this land... "

"Then, I know what to do..." King Uther's expression became firm, and then he revealed a gratified smile. "As a father, I think I can do more for my child... Merlin, I need you to help me design a table. "

“ Oh? What kind of table is it?" Merlin was very interested in King Uther, who had a wise smile on his face. He didn't know what King Uther had thought of.

"A round table." King Uther looked at Merlin and slowly voiced his thoughts, "A table that allows all knights to sit at the side, allowing the king and knights to gather at a table to discuss and celebrate. A big round table. "

King Uther and Merlin were conspiring against each other.

Lil'Dino didn't know anything about the conspiracy between Merlin and King Uther. He was currently flying at a low altitude in order to find prey, but there weren't many wild animals nearby, and there were quite a few farm animals.

"Oh right, Merlin seems to be saying that he is very familiar with the king. It looks like I can ask him to buy some animals for me to eat. " Lil'Dino pounded his fist on his palm and turned it around. He flew towards the King's Castle. As he flew closer, the little dragon noticed that there was a flag painted with a red dragon on the top of the castle.

"It seems like the king treats the red dragon as his symbol? Perhaps this is also why Queen Titania called me here to deliver the sword." The little dragon thought to himself, "But the red dragon on this flag is too ugly."

As he flew closer to the castle, Lil'Dino smelled Merlin's scent. He wanted to see which room Merlin was in, but he discovered that Merlin had come out of the door.

"Hey, Rode..." Merlin naturally saw Lil'Dino and immediately raised his head to call out, "You came just in time, the king wanted to meet you."

"Looks like I came at the right time." Lil'Dino circled for a bit before landing on the square where the knights gathered. King Uther walked down the steps of the castle and bowed in front of the little dragon. The little dragon also returned the salute.

"Hello, Red Dragon Mr. Rode. Merlin has already told me about you." King Uther said in a friendly tone, "I heard from Merlin that you are a Red Dragon who is determined to become Great Dryad. I admire your spirit. "

"Hello, King, thank you for your praise." Lil'Dino also politely replied, "King, Merlin said that you wanted to see me purely out of curiosity and wanted to see my appearance. Or is there something you need my help with? "

"Haha, I should say both." Although the dragon in front of him was taller than him, King Uther didn't show any signs of fear. Of course, he didn't put on the airs of a king. "A dragon that wants to become Great Dryad has never been seen before, so I am quite curious. As for the matter of helping, I actually want to ask your wife. That female warrior has some small matters to attend to. Of course, as the king, I will also pay for it. It's just that this matter is related to some secrets, so it's not suitable to talk about it here "

" It doesn't matter, Merlin knows where we live, you can come and find us at any time. " Lil'Dino smiled, "Speaking of which, I also need Merlin's help right now."

"You need my help? What is it?" Merlin was very curious.

"You know, dragons are very edible." Lil'Dino said, "But it's not easy to find wild animals in this area, so I want to buy some livestock to eat."

"So it's such a small matter!" King Uther laughed loudly. "Leave this matter to me. It would be better to invite a messenger from afar to dinner. It's what the king should do. Wait a moment, I will tell my men to prepare the banquet."

Although the little dragon had yet to become an adult dragon with an exaggerated body size, it was not easy for it to enter the castle. Therefore, King Uther ordered the chefs to bring the grill, the big pot, and the entire cow and sheep to hold an open-air banquet on the grass near the castle. In order to take care of the little dragon's size, King Uther ordered the chefs to bring along the grill, the big pot, and the entire cow and sheep to hold an open-air banquet on the grass near the castle. King Uther instructed them to prepare more roasted cows and sheep. The chefs, workers, and butchers all started to slaughter the cows and sheep together. They set up a row of fire on the grass for roasting meat. One by one, they started to roast meat. The cows and sheep slowly rotated on the fire to roast the meat, emitting the fragrance of meat. In the middle of the field, there were two large pots, with large chunks of beef being cooked in one mouthful. In the other mouth, there was the Celtic stewed lamb with lamb meat, potatoes, onions, and other food. As for the blood and internal organs of the cows and sheep, they were used to make the stomach and sausages. Lil'Dino went back to fetch Brunhilde over. King Uther also called his knights to attend the banquet.

When the sky was filled with stars, a bonfire was lit on the grassland. Lil'Dino, his wife, King Uther, and his knights sat around the bonfire on the ground. They ate large pieces of meat and drank happily. Although Brunhilde was a woman, she did not drink as much as a man when she attended the banquet. In Brunhilde's hometown, Eating and drinking at the banquet was a polite act. The more forthright one ate and drank, the happier the owner and the guests would be. Hence, Brunhilde quickly received the respect of the knights, and Lil'Dino also ate and drank quite happily. A dragon's mouth and stomach were much bigger than a human's, so no knight could compete with Lil'Dino who drank more - Lil'Dino directly drank with a bucket. A knight named Accord also wanted to challenge the entire barrel of ale, but in the end, he only drank four-fifths of it and could not drink anymore. However, he also won a round of laughter and applause. During the feast, Lil'Dino also talked about what he had seen and heard along the way. King Uther and the knights were quite happy to hear it. This joyous feast lasted until late into the night, until Brunhilde was drunk. Lil'Dino ate until he was full before it ended.

"I believe you are not a dragon that knows how to brag. Your experience is more interesting than any knight's adventure experience that I have ever heard of, I believe in my... Oh, I can't say it now" At the end of the banquet, King Uther also had a big tongue, but he still retained some clarity of mind. He managed to keep his mouth shut in time and didn't reveal his secret. "Tomorrow, I will go to the Oak Forest where Merlin lives in seclusion alone. At that time, we will... talk about it... "
