Chapter 283 Chapter. The Witch's Dream
The stone platform in front of her was removed, and the bright moonlight seemed to be blocked by someone.

The girl whose hands and feet were tied to the cross with iron chains raised her head, a pair of dull eyes were revealed under the dirty and messy long black hair, she could clearly see the true face of the person who climbed the stone platform, who was similar to her big boy.

"who are you?"

She had seen him before, he was the lord's guest, and she was caught by the guards just because she was trying to steal his food.Seeing him again, she only felt that there was an inexplicable reassuring aura about him—probably she was attracted by this illusion to steal bread.

"Shh, don't talk." The boy lowered his voice and made a silent gesture at her: "I'm Arthur, you should remember me, I'm here to save you."

"Help me? Did the lord call you here?"

Drinking the blood of a witch who died of exposure can inherit the power of the witch. How could the lord who was bewitched by such absurd lies give up the only suspected witch at hand.

"I came here secretly." Arthur explained in a low voice while untying the iron chain wrapped around the girl's wrist, "If you make too much noise, both of us will be arrested."

She gave a soft "oh" and said nothing more.

The iron chain was tightly bound into her skin, and the rust in it almost merged with her flesh and blood.

"Did you jump out suddenly because you wanted bread?"

He kept moving his hands, trying to divert his attention by talking.

"It seems to be drifting for a long time, and then I'm hungry."

Contrary to Arthur's expectations, the girl's voice was so calm that it didn't change at all, as if it wasn't affected by the pain at all.

The shackles on her hands were quickly untied, and Arthur bent down and began to unshackle her feet again.

Suddenly there was the sound of Sasha's footsteps in the distance, and then the light of a large torch hit this side, causing Arthur's body to freeze. He lowered his head and wanted to hide in the shadows, but he didn't expect the fire to quickly spread to this side.

"do not move."

A girl's murmur suddenly came from his ear, and then she felt her head was grabbed by a pair of hands, and then pressed against the soft body.The smell on the girl's body is not good, maybe it's because it hasn't been washed for a long time.

The fire spread over, but the guard just took a casual glance and left. The girl let go of Arthur's head when the footsteps were completely gone.

"Do you know magic?" He originally thought that the so-called witch by Lord Goreng was just a casual title, but he never imagined that the girl in front of him could actually know magic.

"Then why don't you use magic to escape?" Then he raised new doubts.

"The magic power was exhausted when I was caught, and I just recovered some recently." She paused, and then said: "There is a very powerful magic power reaction here, and I can't beat her."

"Ah, that's Teacher Meili." Arthur finally violently removed the shackles, and his tone relaxed, "She won't join forces with Lord Gollen."

And if you really talk about a witch, Teacher Meili is a real witch.

He wiped the sweat from his face: "I've said so much, what's your name?"

"Didn't think about it. But you should go. Roshan is coming, and he used magic on my shackles."

Arthur was stunned for a moment before he realized that Roshan was talking about Lord Gollen.

"I'll talk about the name later." Arthur took the girl's hand and hugged her up: "We should run."

The shouts of the guards had already been heard, and the bright lights in the manor seemed to be a gesture of high vigilance.

"If this state can be used to deal with the Saxons, Britain won't be in such a mess!" Seeing this situation, Arthur said angrily: "When I become king, lords like him should be liquidated."

"You can't run away, put me down."

She felt that it was good for both of them to survive, and the probability of her surviving quietly using magic was obviously much higher than Arthur leading him to die.

"Don't move." Arthur buried his head, the shadows between the torches flitted around, but there were too few gaps left for him, and he was gradually forced into a corner.

In order to delay her own death time, she could only use the little magic power to form a thin film, barely covering herself and Arthur, but this thin film was pierced by a hand the moment it was formed.The hand pinched Arthur's collar with dizzying speed and quickly dragged the two out of place.

"I told you not to run around."

A gentle female voice sounded, and Arthur looked up in surprise at the pink-and-white-haired woman standing beside him: "Ms. Mei Li."

"Although this fat dog lord was rewarded by King Uther himself, he is not loyal. I suspect that if it wasn't because he couldn't beat me, he would hang me at the door as a witch ornament."

Facing the woman's reprimand, Arthur just showed a shy smile without saying a word.

Meili then glanced at the witch ornament on Arthur's back that he had just stolen.He just glanced at her casually, but his eyes froze in an instant.But her anomaly only lasted for a moment, and the woman changed to a teacher's preaching tone and warned Arthur: "Don't run around in the future, your life is the treasure of this country, and besides, refugees like her are not in your hands. Unknown numbers of people will die every day in the invisible and visible corners, and only you can truly save them when you become the new king."

"But I can save it. Even if I am not a king now, there should be things I can do. If I let my people die in front of my eyes without doing anything, I think even if I become a king, it will be difficult to recall the past. Got an idea."

And the unforgettable scene of that day was the first time she met him.

……

"Arthur Arthur, go out and play."

"Sorry, I'm practicing the king's etiquette."

"Chengwang, are you so strict?"

"Well, a king without etiquette has no prestige. He will not be recognized."

"Prestige——I heard from Teacher Mei Li that it is something more important than life... Arthur, if one day, your other courtiers sacrifice me for your prestige?" She remembered what Teacher Mei Li said. the words said.

Arthur was stunned for a moment, he stopped, and said in an extremely serious tone: "That's why there is something wrong with my kingdom... If that day really comes, I will take you out, and then we will create a new one." kingdom."

"Like the first time you rescued me?"

"Just like that!"

……

"My lord, it has been investigated clearly. It was she who used the love spell on the queen, and she was the one who released the news of Lancelot's private meeting with the queen."

The man sitting on the throne did not speak, so his close ministers persuaded again: "If she is not executed, it will be a great blow to the king's prestige, and it will not be conducive to the next expedition to France."

She stood at the bottom of the steps, looking at the king sitting on the high place, she wanted to justify.

——No, no, the love spell... News, no, although there is a memory, it is definitely not her doing!

"King, please be clear."

Jinchen spoke again.

King Arthur nodded with a subtle arc.

Her justification stuck in her throat.
