Elemental Wizards at Hogwarts
Chapter 563: The Secret Once Upon a Time (1)
Regarding the third condition of the Goblin King's agreement with Reese, Ciel did not immediately agree to the old goblin who was almost like a corpse sitting on the throne and was tempered by time. Instead, he stared at him with sharp eyes without saying a word.
Seeing Xia Er's appearance, the Goblin King Yohoris sitting on the throne no longer had the arrogance and domineering behavior of the king at the beginning. Instead, he became like an ordinary old man facing Xia Er.
Er went on to say.
"Don't look at me like that, little one. Are you interested in hearing my story?"
Before Ciel could say anything, the Goblin King Johoris had already begun to talk about his life.
"It was a long time ago, so long that I can no longer remember the faces of those characters. I was born in a dilapidated and backward goblin village, and my family has been the most powerful forger in that tribe for generations.
I have also inherited the family's talents very well, but unlike other members of the family, I am born with an adventurous heart. I am not willing to stay in this dilapidated and backward tribe all my life.
Confined to this small world, I enjoy the reputation left by my ancestors.
So as soon as I became successful in my studies, I secretly packed up my luggage and left the small tribe in my hometown, thinking that by testing my skills, even if I couldn't get ahead, I wouldn't starve to death.
It turns out that I was really lucky. Not long after I left the village, I met a man, a real knight. His name was Arthur Pendragon, and he claimed to be a descendant of a king.
But both I and those around him know that this is just what he calls himself.
But as time went by, my skills as a knight gradually became stronger, and with the help of the equipment I forged, I even became the strongest knight in the kingdom for a time.
As Arthur's status rises, those of us who follow Charles gradually have more wealth, rights, and status. Along with these things that can make people feel lingering, there is also a bird named
The beast of ambition!
A few of us and Arthur planned a plan or a legend. I would use Arthur's blood to forge a sword full of magic, ensuring that no one except Arthur could pick up the sword.
Then other people would find a way to sneak the sword into the ground in the square in front of the palace, waiting for the right time for Arthur to pull out the sword.
After everything was completed quietly, we took advantage of the current king's old age to spread rumors about the sword in the stone throughout the kingdom.
The only flaw of this plan at that time was that Merlin was a court magician. As a very powerful magician of that era, Merlin was also the only person we were worried about.
But luckily, even though Merlin could see our Sword in the Stone trick at a glance, he didn't know why and didn't stop us.
In this way, we were very lucky to complete our plan, and Arthur successfully inherited the throne of the old king and became a little king.
After becoming king, Arthur was just like me who wanted to see the outside world. He also wanted to become a great king, so with the help of Merlin, the war began.
Fortunately, because of my excellent forging skills, I have become an indispensable figure around Arthur, just like Merlin. Although I cannot directly help Arthur fight like Merlin, the armors and weapons I forged are
Can protect Arthur's life.
But everything changed with the defeat of a war!
The sword in the stone I forged was directly cut off by the enemy's sword during a war!
Even Arthur was seriously injured. If Merlin hadn't been with the key, Arthur might have died on the spot.
Although Arthur didn't say anything to me, I felt very sad because my sword caused my friends to be injured!
I worked hard to improve my forging skills, trying to forge a sword that surpassed the Sword in the Stone. After countless attempts, I was never able to surpass the Sword in the Stone I forged originally.
But the war waits for no one. With Arthur's defeat, the enemy's army was getting closer and closer to Arthur's country. Seeing that Arthur was about to fail, I gradually began to become irritable.
When I was desperate, I thought of the taboo forging method and sacrifice that has been circulated among our tribe!
The forger will sacrifice his most important things to ensure that the sword or weapon he forges has the properties of being indestructible and extremely sharp.
But the shortcomings are also extremely obvious. This sword has a limited time of existence. If it cannot be destroyed by the forger himself in the end, the wounds of the sacrificed soul will be immortal to the forger.
I used that method and sacrificed my emotions of freedom and happiness, and I successfully forged a sword for Arthur that surpassed the Sword in the Stone!
For the sake of the morale of the warriors in the kingdom at that time, I negotiated with Arthur and Merlin and lied that this sword was the sword of kings that Arthur got from the fairy in the lake.
Under the wrap of this lie, my sword leaf lived up to expectations and helped Arthur survive the crisis, and even as Arthur gradually began to conquer larger lands.
We have also received more rewards, wealth, status, rights, everything is so easy for us who were around Arthur from the beginning.
But I can't feel a trace of happiness and joy, because I don't have this emotion!
I can laugh, but there is no emotion in my heart! I can obviously walk freely anywhere in the world, but I still feel like a bird in a cage.
As time went by, Arthur also fulfilled his ambition at the end of his life, and he became the greatest king in Britain!
Merlin also disappeared without a trace after Arthur completed the unification of Britain. No matter how Arthur searched, it was difficult to find any trace of Merlin.
With the disappearance of Merlin, Arthur also awarded us a reward, and not surprisingly, I became the king of the fairies.
After hearing about my deeds, countless goblins began to come all the way to join me, and I didn't think much about it and slowly began to govern my fellow creatures in my own territory.
But no matter how hard I try, I don't feel a trace of happiness or freedom, only endless responsibilities and fatigue.
Finally one day I couldn't stand it anymore.
I found Arthur, hoping that he could give me back the sword of king that I gave him, and give me back the freedom and happy emotions that I value most.
But the old Arthur no longer had the original wisdom and rejected my request without any hesitation. Even at the last moment of his life, he asked his most loyal knight to throw the sword into a lake, and
It was announced that the sword was returned to the Lady of the Lake!
So just like that, my once best friend and best brother and I turned against each other!"
The Goblin King Yohoris was talking and reminiscing. His face, which was so old that it was no different from a corpse, was full of memories. He did not notice that the expression of Ciel standing in the audience had gradually changed from the fierce at the beginning.
It gets weird.
Good guy! What you are talking about is not the same as what you drew in the corridor!!!
