Chapter 8: Past and Present Life (Please Collect)

In the end, with King Uther's encouragement, Morgana accepted Kay's gift, but she couldn't stand the eyes of others and shyly hid back in her room. Seeing Morgana's little girl's attitude, King Uther also smiled with satisfaction.

Morgana likes Kay, which almost everyone with a little experience knows. And now Kay gave Morgana so many valuable gifts in front of so many people, what does it mean, everyone knows in their hearts.

King Uther is even more happy to see it happen. Although Morgana said to the outside world that she was his adopted daughter, in fact, Morgana was his biological daughter! Only three people in the whole kingdom knew this, one was himself, the other was the royal pharmacist Gaius, and finally it was Kay!

This involved a series of bloody stories, which King Uther didn't want others to know. Gaius knew because he was King Uther's best friend. And Kay knew the secret because of an accident.

So for King Uther, he always felt guilty about Morgana. He hoped that Morgana could live a good life.

Marrying Kai was undoubtedly the best choice. Although Kai was a little naive, King Uther had to admit that Kai was the best young man he had ever seen in his life. Moreover, Kai knew everything about him.

Kai grew up beside him since he was a child, and the time Kai spent with him since he was a child exceeded that of Kai's own father.

King Uther knew Kai, and he knew that Kai could definitely bring happiness to Morgana.

…

The dinner ended with amazement and cheers. This day might leave a strong mark in the history of Camelot. What happened today will definitely be repeated by everyone with relish.

However, although all the guests were very happy, Kai was not in a good mood.

He stood alone on the high-rise terrace of the royal castle, quietly watching the lights of the royal city gradually go out. Suddenly, there was an unprecedented loss.

Kai had a secret, a secret that no one knew.

He was a time traveler.

His original name is no longer important, especially after his way to "return home" was completely cut off, Kai's real name is really not important at all in this world. In his previous life, he was a policeman and a soldier. When he was in the army, his performance was not considered a top soldier, but he was definitely an excellent soldier of the people.

Later, due to some reasons, he was forced to retire and then became a criminal policeman in his hometown city. His experience as a scout made his police career quite successful. Although he has never caught any murderers, high-IQ criminals and other tough characters, after all, his city can only be regarded as a third-tier city, and there are not so many exciting experiences. But he has also successfully solved many cases and arrested many criminal suspects. He believes that he deserves the police badge on his head.

There is nothing to say about his experience of crossing, but he died during a surprise arrest. The only thing he is fortunate about is that he was the only one who died in that pursuit. The other colleagues are fine. Although he was not an orphan in his previous life, his parents were no longer alive, and he had no wife or children. Although he had a few girlfriends, most of them broke up after a short time because of work reasons.

A typical loner, there is nothing to miss after his death. Other colleagues are different, either they are young or have children. And he was in command that time, he didn't want his mistakes to cause others to pay the price.

In short, he traveled through time after waking up, not in a different body, but as soon as he woke up, he became a baby. After that, he grew up in Camelot, and his biological parents loved him very much. It was not because of any bloody plot that they kept him in Camelot.

It was completely based on the rules of the nobility.

Kai is the third son, the youngest in the family, and has no inheritance rights. The family's property does not have the spare money to support three children. The support here does not mean that it cannot be supported. His family has been aristocrats for generations, so he will never lack a bite of food.

The so-called support here is after adulthood. Kai's eldest brother is the eldest son and the most legal heir. The family's territory belongs to him. His second brother is also much older than Kai. Although he has no inheritance rights, his parents have already thought of a way out for him. He will inherit a small piece of territory that his mother brought as a dowry. At the same time, the family will also grant a small part of the territory, so that he can become a territory knight and continue to be loyal to the family.

But when it comes to Kai, there are some problems. Although Kai's family is old, it is not a great noble family. The family cannot allow the territory to continue to disperse, which will threaten the existence of the family.

This is a difficult problem that all small nobles in this era need to face. With more children, they must make some choices. It is impossible to treat them all equally, which is irresponsible to the family. After all, a knight title is not so easy to get.

Knights must be nobles, there is nothing to say about this. Secondly, they must be property owners. In this era, people believe in property owners more. Those propertyless knights give people the impression of being disloyal, incompetent, and even rogue. In short, wandering knights are not a good title.

And "property" is not just a room and a few acres of land. That is a real territory.

This territory is either granted by the king or inherited by the family. There is no third choice.

But it was too difficult for the king to grant fiefs. After all, it was difficult for a commoner or a proletarian knight to gain the trust and appreciation of the king. This was a vicious circle. So family inheritance became the mainstream.

So Kai's future became a problem.

But fortunately, Kai's father had connections. Kai's father, Sir Ector, was a close friend of King Uther, who grew up naked. In short, because of his good relationship with the king, Sir Ector followed the king's path and sent his third son to the king to become a royal attendant.

This is also the best way for nobles to find opportunities for children in the family who have no inheritance rights. Of course, generally speaking, they must be very close to the royal family.

Also because of his father, Kai grew up in the palace since he was a child. King Uther also loved Kai and treated him as his own child. He did not treat Kai like other attendants, but treated Kai as his own child. In the end, he even directly announced that he would make Kai his adopted son.

Although there was a reason why the first queen loved Kai, King Uther, who was notoriously old-fashioned and stubborn, could make such a decision, absolutely out of sincerity.

In this era, adopted sons cannot be recognized casually. Legally, adopted sons also have inheritance rights! Although the inheritance rights are relatively late, they are also potential heirs to the king, especially when King Uther did not have biological children at that time. At that time, almost everyone was against King Uther's decision, even Kai's biological father Sir Ector.

If King Uther never had a child, or King Uther suddenly died on the battlefield, the royal family would have to change bloodlines, which was too far-reaching. What's more, some people in Camelot at that time already knew that the queen was no longer fertile!

This simply made Kai the heir directly.

In those years, the queen and King Uther faced tremendous pressure, until Arthur was born, which calmed everything down.

Kai grew up safely in Camelot.

After all, he was a time traveler. The knowledge, experience and golden fingers brought by his previous life made Kai perform extremely well, which made King Uther very proud and thought that it was an extremely correct decision for him to adopt Kai as his adopted son.

And Kai did not disappoint King Uther. He just came of age and defeated the knights of various countries in the kingdom's knight competition and became the champion knight. King Uther was not stingy either. When Kai became the champion knight at the age of 18, he directly made Kai a knight!

However, Kai then made a decision that made King Uther extremely angry. He decided to hand over the territory to the king and then started traveling around the world alone.

This made everyone at the time confused. They couldn't figure out why Kai made such an unwise decision.

Only Kai himself knew that he wanted to go home!
