At the beginning, unlimited skill tree!

He was wondering which of his favorite ‘bards’ had a new work! Unexpectedly, it was a completely unfamiliar name.

“Shopkeeper, I’ve never heard of this bard’s name. Is this book good?”

“Don’t worry. We at Violet Bookstore never recommend bad books. We have a good reputation.” The shopkeeper responded with a professional smile, but he was a little confused.

‘He put the book in such a corner, how come it was still discovered! ’

Although the shopkeeper had to admit that the cover of the book was magical, it was like a ‘chimera placed in a group of dragons’ protruding.

Others have one head, why do you have three heads!

Now, the shopkeeper can only pray that the content of the book is not too bad.

If the ‘reputation’ that Violet has accumulated with great difficulty is ruined by a ‘bad book’, if it gets angry, as the manager of this store, it will definitely be fine.

And he, a small shopkeeper, might be fired.

Chapter 39 In the inner sea of ​​stars, on the lookout, ‘Meili’ takes you to listen to the story!

Opening the first page of the book, except for the author’s pen name and the table of contents, there are only a few big words left.

‘Volume 1. Select the sword of the king - the sword in the stone’

“Select... the sword of the king...?!” When the boy saw that line of words, he was surprised for a moment, and then his breath was slightly quickened.

He opened his eyes wide.

—— Such words are too vivid.

‘King’——the most noble and supreme person in a country.

‘Select the sword of the king’, does it mean that the sword has the ability to select the ‘king’? How is this possible! ?

Although he felt that his ‘idea’ was very absurd, the boy was really attracted.

The boy subconsciously thought of the appearance of the exquisite golden sword that was surrounded by many ‘warriors’ and inserted on the stone platform when he saw the cover before.

A strong desire to explore drove him to continue reading.

Now, the boy was a little obsessed and couldn’t help turning to the next page.

‘Anyway——I’ll take a look. I will definitely not buy it after reading a few pages to see what it is about. ’ The boy, who had just spent all his pocket money on the ‘Demon King and Hero’ series, was ready to ‘get a few pages for free’ with this idea in mind.

As the third page was turned over——

‘Let’s talk about the story of the king.

The inner sea of ​​stars, the lookout. I tell you from the corner of paradise. Your story is full of blessings. Only the innocent can enter——[The Utopia of Eternal Seclusion]! ’

After flipping through the catalog, the boy saw such a preface.

There was also a dreamlike and beautiful illustration on it.

When the boy’s eyes fell on the illustration, his breathing stopped instantly, and his pupils dilated and he was stunned.

—— Beauty! Amazing, dreamlike beauty appeared in his eyes.

It was a girl wrapped in a pure white cloak, and her face could not be seen clearly.

The girl was standing in a sea of ​​flowers.

Her hands were spread out, embracing the sea of ​​flowers. The corners of her mouth, which only revealed the lower half of her face, gently outlined a soft and quiet smile.

Just an illustration, the boy's eyes were completely drawn away.

"Ah! This, this is..." After staring blankly for five or six meters, the boy finally came to his senses, his face flushed instantly and he exclaimed.

'So beautiful! '

As beautiful as the goddess of the moon, silver-white hair, delicate chin and keyhole. Jade-like white skin and pink arms exposed to the air, slender and white legs wrapped in seductive white silk.

The girl also held a slender staff in one hand.

"What... is...?" The boy looked at the beautiful girl exuding amazing charm, and couldn't help but stammer and speak.

This beautiful lady, she seems to be a noble "magician"...!

On the other side, the boy's exclamation was heard.

The clerk, who was busy with his work on the surface, but actually had been paying attention to the boy's expression absent-mindedly, suddenly became nervous.

He hurriedly raised his head and asked: "What's wrong?! Is there something wrong with the book?"

'Is it that the book is too ugly? The boy was shocked? But why did his face turn red! ? Could he be angry? ! Is that book really that ugly? 'The clerk thought worriedly in his heart.

"No, no!" The boy shook his head hurriedly.

He was shy and didn't want the other party to know that he was attracted by the beautiful girl in the book and couldn't help but exclaimed.

That would be too embarrassing!

In the books of the other world, there is no "illustration".

Seeing such a beautiful illustration for the first time is undoubtedly very shocking for teenagers who are in adolescence, love fantasy and like beautiful girls.

Although the girl in the illustration did not show her full face at this time.

But the beautiful, dreamy dress, and fair skin...

made the boy's eyes wander and his face flushed.

The more he dared not to look, the more he couldn't help wanting to look.

The common people of this era had no time to pay attention to their clothes and appearance. Most of them were made of coarse cloth, and some even covered their ankles.

He had only seen bold and beautiful outfits like the ones in the illustrations on the young ladies of magic academies or on aristocratic outings.

At this time, the beautiful young lady in the illustration not only has a figure that beats those "noble ladies" that the boy once fantasized about, but also has a temperament that is not comparable to those "noble ladies".

"She is worthy of being a noble magician. She is even more beautiful than the noble ladies." The boy murmured, looking at the illustration with some obsession, and even reluctant to turn to the next page.

Reading a book is not as dazzling as looking at the young lady, the white picture is interesting.

'By the way, what is the name of this magician lady? ' Suddenly the boy thought of this and became a little anxious.

His eyes searched on this page.

Finally, the boy's eyes lit up and found a line of small words in the lower right corner of the illustration.

It read: 'Flower Magician - Meili'.

...

Although he was reluctant to part with the long legs in white silk, the boy continued to turn to the next page with amazing perseverance. (In fact, his heartbeat accelerated too fast and he couldn't stand it.)

The spiritual culture of the other world still remained in the spread of text.

Without experiencing the various "sweet-beep" information explosions in the big information age, these teenagers and girls in the other world are still in a relatively pure and innocent age.

Even Yan would never have thought.

Someone could actually look at a character illustration for so long.

Even if he deliberately drew Merlin as Merlie.

But it's not the kind of colored pictures in the fan book, no matter how you think about it, no one will blush when seeing an "illustration"!

As the boy continued to flip through.

Fortunately, there were no "illustrations" in the following pages.

His face gradually returned to normal under the frightened eyes of the store clerks, and then he finally began to immerse himself in the wonderful and grand worldview.

The story tells a very long time ago.

The story of a kingdom called "Great Britain" among humans.

At the beginning of the story, the king of this kingdom, King Yushi Panzogan, summoned the Duke of Cornwall and his wife Ingeying.

As a result, the king fell in love with the beautiful Duchess.

The Duke of Cornwall fled with his wife at night under the persuasion of his wife.

When King Yushi Panzuogan found out, he angrily issued an order to hunt down the two.

Then a character that stunned the boy appeared - 'Moling'.

The book specifically stated the word (Moling: real name Meili, the same person as the character in the frontispiece).

It turned out to be that beautiful magician girl.

The boy instantly became energetic and inexplicably excited! It turned out to be the story of that beautiful girl! !

With the appearance of the mysterious 'Moling', she offered a plan to King Yushi Panzuogan.

Later, it slowly told how this king, with the help of the 'Moling', successfully seduced the Duchess and gave birth to 'Arthur', and angered the Duke to death.

Only when I saw this boy did I know that this newly born boy 'Arthur' should be the protagonist of this book.

He was obsessed with reading these words and gradually forgot the time.

It was obviously a very melodramatic story about the minotaur. The father of the protagonist actually stole someone else's wife and gave birth to him with another woman.

The boy was fascinated by it.

He had an expression of envy on his face.

'As expected of a king. He can just take any beautiful woman he wants. I'm so envious! If I could be one too--' The boy didn't dare to think about it.

However--

... Compared with those boring, tasteless, and unremarkable stories of 'brave men', in the eyes of the boy, this is already a very exciting plot.

In fact, the highlight of the first volume basically only appears when Arthur pulls out the 'chosen sword' that no one can pull out.

It's just a story about how 'Arthur's' father played a blind man and Arthur was born.

It's so fascinating.

I can only say that the 'hero' biographies that the aliens have read before are indeed too monotonous and boring.

This also leads to the fact that their vision and taste are not high, as long as the 'story' is interesting.

Yan did not expect that he still overestimated the taste of people in this world...

Let alone the story adapted from the "Death of King Arthur" that he decided to write at the beginning, even if he wrote "Killing the Sister", there would probably be a lot of people crying and shouting "Old thief, give me back xxx!" and begging for updates!

Chapter 40 Clerk! I want to change the book!

The boy continued to read on.

As the story progressed, the plot finally returned to the protagonist "Arthur".

With the help of the mysterious "magic spirit", the king did get the beauty back.

He even succeeded in getting the Duchess pregnant "once" and gave birth to a son named "Arthur".

But when he asked the "magic spirit" for help before, he had promised the "magic spirit": "After the baby is born, you have to give the child to me and raise it according to my ideas. '

That clear and gentle voice like a silver bell seemed to be still vivid.

"All this is for your glory and the benefit of this child, because he deserves it." The mysterious silver-haired demon spirit, who only showed half of his face, advised patiently.

Finally, on the night when the queen was about to give birth -

The king still followed the agreement and reluctantly sent someone to send his beloved child out through the back door of the castle.

And there, a girl in a white robe had been waiting there for a long time.

She took the child, and then brought the child to Knight Hector, and asked a priest to baptize him there, and named him "Arthur".

From then on, the child was raised by his wife as an adopted son, along with Hector's biological son Kai.

And it was from that day on -

The girl who was later called the "Great Sage" and "Flower Magician" by the world, and the baby in her arms, had a close and inseparable connection.

Even many years later, "she" who could not forget it, after the "Story of the King" ended, also imprisoned herself in the high [Tower] of Paradise.

"This can be said to be the end of a foolish woman who interfered with the fate of a king with a playful mood." The girl's voice was indifferent without any emotion.

But it seemed to be self-deprecating and lonely.

When I turned to this point, the text was expressed in the tone of the "Demon Spirit" himself.

From this point of view, the whole story of "King Arthur" seems to be a story told by the "demon" recalling what has happened in the past and observing the king's life from the perspective of the "demon".

This echoes the preface at the beginning of the whole book: "Let's tell a story about a king!"
