He looked at Alvin with a look of great fear: "The Age of Gods Returns...?"

Yes... it was just a brief encounter, but Alvin caused the magic in the room to undergo a drastic change.

The magic power in the house at this moment seems to be no different from usual, but in fact it is the "True Ether" that only existed in the early Age of Gods.

This was Vortigern's ambition. Vortigern hoped to fill the entire Camelot Empire with "True Aether" and revive the Age of Gods, which was already at its end.

Many years after Vortigern's death, Alvin replaced the former dragon and took control of this power.

King Marco was on the verge of collapse after being shocked. He growled, "Alvin, you are clearly dead, why are you still back?! What on earth are you doing back here?!"

"Do we have to be so hysterical when we talk? I know I'm not very popular, but there's no need to be like this, right?"

Alvin sighed and said, "King Marco, I came to you for only one thing."

He stared into King Marco's fearful eyes and said, "This matter is related to today's meeting."

……

Britain, 10:30 AM.

Deep inside the palace.

"Your Majesty, as you anticipated from the beginning, after today's meeting, some nobles are dissatisfied with your decision. Some unpleasant voices have also been heard in the royal city."

The deputy walked into the King's Hall and brought a cup of warm black tea to Artoria.

"What did they say?" Altria asked calmly.

"They say you are leading the empire to ruin, and they also say..."

The deputy subconsciously glanced at Altria.

"Just say it." Altria said lightly.

The deputy hesitated for a moment and whispered, "They also said... that you have a special liking for boys and are suspected of practicing Falun Gong."

Altria pondered for a moment and said, "It's true that being stubborn is false."

"But Lian (Lian) seems to be right."

The deputy was stunned for a moment, and a question mark slowly appeared above his head.

Altria looked at the steaming black tea on the white jade round table, and glanced at the list that her deputy had handed to her not long ago.

After thinking for a moment, she said, "The empire's finances are currently in a tight spot, and we need money right now. Let's use this as an excuse to levy 30% of the assets of the three great nobles: King Marco, King Lorraine, and Ronaldia."

The deputy's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but say tactfully, "Wang...if you do this, they will find public opinion to criticize you."

"And after this meeting, King Marco has been dissatisfied..."

Altria said calmly, "King Marco won't have any objections...someone has already gone to see him."

The deputy was surprised and said quickly, "King, Tristan is also in King Marco's manor..."

You know, the combat power of each knight of the palace cannot be underestimated, not to mention that the opponent is Tristan of the Knights of the Round Table.

If Tristan found out that King Arthur had sent people to cause trouble for King Marco... given his loyalty to King Arthur, he might not say anything, but there would inevitably be a gap between them afterwards.

Besides, what kind of person is King Marco? If he was so easily coerced, he wouldn't have prospered so much over the years.

After all, King Marco's estate is heavily guarded, and it's impossible for ordinary people to sneak in successfully...

Hearing her deputy's reminder, Artoria tapped her fingertips on the table. After a moment's contemplation, she said, "That's right. Then the fees collected from others will remain the same, and King Marco will collect an additional 40% of the property."

The expression on the deputy's face gradually became dull.

Ignoring the deputy lady beside her whose expression had gradually become dull, Artoria picked up the tea, blew away the hot air, and took a small sip.

hum!

Before the deputy could recover from her shock, she heard a buzzing sound in her head.

The deputy seemed to have sensed something and looked in a certain direction. His expression changed slightly and he said, "King, Mordred has escaped from the room."

Although Altria did not deliberately imprison Mordred, the deputy lady still had someone set up a sensing barrier in Mordred's room.

At this moment, the sensory barrier in the room seemed to be broken.

"I know." Altria said calmly.

As early as when she brought Mordred back, she knew that it was only a matter of time before he escaped.

But she never restricted Mordred's actions.

"Should we send someone to chase her? She shouldn't have left the palace yet..." the deputy asked in a low voice.

"No need... If Xiao Mo insists on leaving, you can't stop him."

"Besides, she's not planning on running away by leaving the room now."

“What is that…?” A hint of doubt flashed in the deputy's eyes, and he asked subconsciously.

"Pick someone up."

As she spoke, Artoria slowly stood up from the throne and looked towards a certain direction outside the hall.

Her powerful perception allowed her to immediately capture the extremely terrifying magical fluctuations outside the palace gate.

Altria opened her red lips slightly, her voice was clear and pleasant, but it seemed to reveal a cold chill.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go out and meet the guests."

Chapter 34 Sunshine in the Cracks

How long has it been since you came back?

Morgan le Fay walked along the street leading to the palace, his eyes wandering everywhere, with a look of nostalgia on his face.

As the daughter of the late King Uther, Morgan le Fay has been growing up in the royal palace ever since she could remember.

As an innocent girl at the time, she had no idea what the world outside the palace was like, and the intrigues among the nobles had nothing to do with her.

Because of this, the nobles in the past were full of longing for the girl named Morgan le Fay. Coupled with her stunning beauty, countless nobles were willing to fall at her feet.

It was not until later that the birth of King Arthur at the sword-drawing ceremony completely turned Morgan evil. People began to fear her, and some bad rumors began to spread inside and outside the palace.

Witch... This is the best interpretation of Morgan and "fear" people have.

But Morgan le Fay doesn't care what these people think.

At that time, she had only one thought in her mind - revenge.

Revenge on Merlin, on all those who have treated her maliciously, and even on the entire empire and her own sister.

It was a dark life. The first thing I thought of when I woke up every day was the many complicated revenge plans, and my empty heart had long been filled with hatred.

If Vortigern's goal was to end the end of the Age of Gods and allow Camelot to usher in a new Age of Gods... then Morgan le Fay simply wanted revenge for everything.

Until one sunny afternoon, she saw her sister getting married to a young man.

That was the first time Morgan saw his sister, who was serious and didn't know what happiness was, smile so sincerely.

Even the entire country belongs to her, but now she has found her own happiness...but she has nothing.

It's unfair no matter how you think about it, right?

Therefore, Morgan's plan began with the most important person around King Arthur.

After Artoria became King Arthur and appeared to the world, Alvin took the initiative to retreat behind the scenes and silently guarded the empire during the long night.

And it was on this street that Morgan first approached Alvin.

The young man, who was about to return to the palace after meeting a noble, "accidentally" ran into the witch of the empire on the street.

Everyone tried to avoid the witch, but he came up to her and greeted her with a friendly look.

After that, Morgan frequently contacted him in the palace. At first, he simply wanted to alienate him from King Arthur, and most of the topics they discussed were about imperial affairs.

But for a long time after that, they talked about life, potions, and even Morgan's past.

He never deliberately avoided the relationship between Morgan and King Arthur. On the contrary, he was open about these topics.

"Morgan, I've always been curious about something."

"You hate everything about the Empire, is it because Lily pulled out that sword and became King Arthur?"

"That's only part of the story... but I do hate everything about this country because of her."

"Me too?" he asked.

Morgan was speechless for a moment, then, under the boy's expectant gaze, he revealed an uneasy look for the first time: "Your words... I hope you don't mind them for now."

"Do you like it?"

After this inquiry, there was a long silence.

Then, after a long time, the coldness in her eyes gradually melted away, and as she looked at the starry plain outside the window, her expression softened a lot.

"I guess so." It was still a somewhat arrogant reply.

However, the boy smiled.

“If you can hate everything because of one person, why can’t you like everything because of another person?”

This is a fallacy, so Morgan certainly won't be convinced by it.

But for the first time, her heart was moved... She developed a feeling called love for her sister's lover.

"Mother...are you okay?" Gareth asked with a somewhat nervous voice.

Morgan had been in this state of anxiety ever since they passed through this street on their way to the palace.

Although she was a little 'afraid' of her mother, the place they were going to next was the royal palace...she had to stay alert no matter what.

"Don't worry...I just remembered some past events."

Morgan came back to his senses from the distant memory and shook his head slightly.

Because she once fell into the abyss, but saw a ray of sunshine in the crack, so when she revisited the place many years later, she would always think of that afternoon and the boy with a gentle and sunny smile.

Morgan looked down at the dragon scale in his hand. In the sunlight, this magic costume seemed to be shining with an extremely dazzling light of pale gold.

Was it him, or was it some despicable thief who stole the White Dragon Core after his death...?

For some reason, she felt uneasy and apprehensive for the first time in a long time.

She hoped that the dragon scales were truly made by him...but she was also worried that all this might just be an illusion.

If it turns out that person isn't him...

First give a glimmer of hope, and then trample this hope heavily underfoot... Even Morgan cannot bear such a gap.

In such a complicated state of mind, the two of them unknowingly arrived outside the palace of Camelot.

At this time, the sound of footsteps was faintly heard in the distance.

That was the heavy sound of the iron sheet hitting the ground.

Morgan le Fay looked up and was shocked to see Mordred, dressed warmly, leaping high outside the palace.

boom!

The palace gate behind Mordred was suddenly pushed open, and dozens of knights chased after him.

Gareth's eyes lit up with joy, and he quickly shouted, "Mordred, come over here!"

"I know, but these guys are so annoying. They really never stop!"

Just as Mordred was about to step forward, a knight leading the team stepped forward and blocked Mordred's way.

"Ah...what an annoying bunch of guys!"

Mordred's tone was filled with irritation, and he immediately drew his greatsword.

Clang!

The swords collided with each other, making a crisp and pleasant sound.

The knight took a few steps back, and a group of knights behind him swarmed over and surrounded Mordred.
