Chapter 27: The Last Dragon (Please Collect and Recommend)

Merlin saw Kai walking away with deep disappointment on his face. He originally thought that Kai, who had always been good at talking, would be a man who could recognize gold, but reality gave him a slap in the face. → Not only did Kai not acknowledge Lancelot, he also beat Lancelot up.

Lancelot did not resent Kai, he knew that Kai had known the truth, and in this case, Kai just drove him away, which was the best result. Merlin helped Lancelot up, and then encouraged him: "Don't be discouraged, Lancelot. We still have a chance, I can ask others, yes, someone must be able to help you."

After saying that, without waiting for Lancelot to speak, Merlin suddenly remembered something and shouted: "Morgana! Princess Morgana! She can do it. She is the most upright and kind person in Camelot, and she will definitely be willing to help you. More importantly, Princess Morgana is Sir Kay's fiancée, and she will definitely be able to convince Sir Kay. Although I don't know why Sir Kay rejected you, Princess Morgana will definitely be able to convince him!"

After saying that, he was ready to turn around and find Gwen. Merlin couldn't go directly to Princess Morgana to talk about this, but Wenger could. Wenger was as optimistic about Lancelot as he was. At the same time, Merlin also knew that there seemed to be a little problem between Wenger and Lancelot. In this case, Gwen would definitely be willing to help Lancelot.

"Wait, Merlin!" Lancelot grabbed the excited Merlin and said with difficulty: "No... No, Merlin."

"Why?" Merlin thought Lancelot was hit so he was ready to give up, and was ready to persuade Lancelot again. But Lancelot's words made Merlin fall into an ice cave immediately.

"Sir Kay seems to have discovered the truth... He knows I'm not a noble..." Lancelot felt bad.

From the beginning, Lancelot didn't want to become a knight in this way. He didn't like lying, and it was Merlin who persuaded him. Of course, he was not blaming Merlin, after all, he agreed to Merlin's approach at the beginning. He just felt that he deserved this result now. He was the first to use deception, so it was not too much for others to just beat him up.

...

Kai didn't care about the thoughts between Lancelot and Merlin. He thought it was good for this matter to pass. He didn't have much prejudice against Lancelot, and he didn't despise him because Lancelot was not a noble.

The reason why he hated Lancelot was more because he and Merlin were using Arthur!

No matter what their reasons were, their behavior just now was using! Especially Merlin, he showed Kai a very bad beginning. He made a fake noble identity certificate for Lancelot without telling Arthur, and led Lancelot to Arthur, and deceived Arthur without hesitation.

This behavior was worse than them joining hands to deceive themselves in Kai's opinion.

Who is Arthur? He is the heir to the king! Merlin, a servant, and Lancelot, a commoner, actually deceived the monarch they were loyal to for their own interests. No matter how many reasons there are, this behavior is unacceptable!

Is there any essential difference between this behavior and those corrupt officials?

Some people say that Merlin has no selfishness. He just simply admires Lancelot and wants to repay his life-saving grace. The starting point is good. →

This explanation is pure bullshit!

The starting point is good, and mistakes can be forgiven? What kind of logic is this? Today, Merlin can deceive Arthur in order to repay Lancelot's kindness. Then, can Merlin be forgiven for deceiving Arthur for other reasons?

More importantly, what is Merlin to Arthur? A tool to accomplish his goal?

If Merlin was not an important role in assisting Arthur in the legend, Kai could have driven Merlin away at that time! After this incident, Kai decided to keep a close eye on Merlin in the future. He was too young to fulfill his responsibility to assist Arthur. He was just a child.

Kai just put this matter behind him. After all, after such an obvious warning, Lancelot should understand that he had shown special favor, and Merlin should have been warned. He thought that this matter should end here.

After a day of training, Kai found a reason and came to the deepest dungeon under the palace. There is a deep passage there, leading directly to a cave deep underground, where King Uther imprisoned the last dragon in the world.

Twenty years ago, King Uther was determined to eliminate everything related to magic, even the dragon. Except for the dragon in the cave, it was used as a warning to others. It was used to tell all the wizards and mages who were hostile to Camelot how powerful Camelot was.

Like all myths and legends, dragons are the most powerful magical creatures. Their bodies are as hard as iron. They can use spells and spit dragon breath. They are regarded as the embodiment of power. Many nobles like to use some dragon elements in their emblems. For example, Arthur's emblem is a red dragon.

From here, we can also see how powerful Camelot is.

After passing through a dark and damp passage, Kay finally came to the dragon cave. This is a large underground space, about two or three hundred meters from the ground. The dragon is locked here. It is bound by a magic chain. Unless someone helps it open the chain, it can only be trapped here forever until death comes.

The dragon was resting on a protruding stone platform above the cave. Kai's footsteps woke it up. With the sound of flapping wings, the dragon fell from the sky with his shackles and landed on a protruding boulder.

When the dragon saw the person coming, it was very surprised.

"Kai! You actually returned to Camelot!"

Kai was not surprised. He calmly placed the torch in his hand in the slot on the wall of the passage, then turned around and greeted the dragon.

"Yes, long time no see, Kangola. I warned you a long time ago and asked you to stay away. Why did you still get caught?" Kai looked at this old acquaintance and said with emotion.

The dragon Kangola folded his wings, lay on the boulder, and stretched his huge head towards Kai.

"No matter who you are, you always have something you care about. As for me, I care about my kind. I can't just watch them being slaughtered by King Uther. So I decided to join the war. But it seems that your advice is right, but the result is better than I expected. At least I am still alive. As long as I am alive, one day, I will avenge my kind!" Kangola's attitude towards Kai is not good.

However, they are indeed not friends. Kai knew this dragon. It was ten years ago. Not long after Kai ran away from home, he encountered it in the forest on the border of Camelot. In Camelot, a knight encountering a dragon would inevitably lead to a battle.

Although Kai was a rookie at that time, his combat power was already very strong. The dragon was seriously injured because of the conspiracy with King Uther ten years ago. When it met Kai, it was not well. The two were at most half a catty and eight a catty.

Kai couldn't kill Kangola, and Kangola couldn't kill Kai. The two entangled for almost two months and fought dozens of times. Neither side could do anything to the other. On the contrary, we developed some feelings for each other after this. It would be a bit of an exaggeration to say that we hit it off right away, but we did have a certain sympathy for each other.
