The Trinity of Harry Potter

Chapter 41: The Tragedy of Love

"I obtained the characteristics in advance without going through the normal process, so my parents didn't tell me how a normal knight squire should obtain characteristics." Sean scratched his head in embarrassment.

"They said that when I gain strength, I will naturally understand how to break through."

Kano sighed helplessly. No matter Gawain or Sean's parents, they were all Riddlers.

"Adults are always mysterious." Sean put the stargazing pie into his mouth and started chewing.

Kano sighed. It was Merlin's guidance that I came to Cornwall today. Did he feel that telling me the characteristics directly was not intuitive enough, and it would be more impressive to come here to see it?

Well, his goal was achieved. Kano is now looking forward to his own characteristics. His strength is stronger than Sean's. If Sean is about to break through and become an official knight, then he should be soon too.

"Speaking of which, are the characteristics of those powerful knights in history recorded?" Kano suddenly thought, "Just like the Knights of the Round Table."

"Not all of them are there. Some people have said their own characteristics, and some people's characteristics are speculated by later generations based on the data. For example, it is now known that my ancestor is Eagle Eye."

"Gawain is the sun. His power will become stronger as the sun rises, reaching three times the normal level at noon, and his power will gradually decrease as the sun sets."

"Galahad is pure, that is, the more focused the mind, the stronger the power."

"What about Mordred?" Kano asked quickly.

Unexpectedly, Sean showed a very embarrassed expression: "Mordred's strength is in the middle and lower reaches of the round table, but then his strength suddenly increased rapidly during the rebellion."

"He could even die together with King Arthur in the end. You must know that King Arthur's characteristic is the 'Lion King'. The more and stronger knights who regard him as their lord, the stronger he himself will be."

"No one knows how Mordred suddenly became stronger. Historians all suspect that it is related to his characteristics."

Kano is not in a hurry, after all, the parties involved must know these things, so he can just ask them directly later.

Early the next morning, the two children said goodbye to the principal and left Cornwall School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Kreacher took the luggage first.

Silently speaking all the way, the two of them arrived at McCall Manor smoothly. An old butler with white hair and beard, his back straight, was waiting for them at the gate.

"Master, you are back." He stepped forward and took the reins of Sean and Kano's horses, bowing slightly.

"I'm back, Robert. Don't be ridiculous. This friend of mine has a tough battle to fight tonight." Sean jumped off the horse and directed Robert to prepare the meal quickly.

Kano came to the study room of the manor with him. Sean cleared his throat and prepared to tell him the story of Tristan, Isolde and King Mark here.

"I've been listening to it since I was a child, and I've listened to it every day. When a guest comes and talks about it again, I can't help but think I'm not familiar with it." Sean patted Kano's shoulder and spoke.

Tristan's father was the king of Langnath, and his mother was tortured when he was born.

His mother later passed away and named the child "Tristan" before she died, which means born in pain.

Later, Tristan's father also died, and the position of king was passed to his stepmother's son.

Tristan came to his uncle King Mark's Principality of Cornwall, where he helped him fight off the powerful knight Mahans from Ireland who came to collect taxes.

However, he was also injured by Mahans' poisoned spear and was in critical condition. King Mark secretly sent him to Ireland, changed his appearance, and sought medical advice. Finally, the Irish princess Isolde cured him.

People gradually develop feelings secretly.

But Mahans was Isolde's uncle, and he died because of Tristan. After Tristan's identity was exposed, he had to leave Ireland and return to Cornwall.

Later, King Mark's lover fell in love with Tristan and ignored King Mark. At the same time, Tristan's reputation in the Principality of Cornwall grew day by day.

As a result, King Mark became more and more afraid of Tristan. Later, King Mark thought of marrying Ireland to consolidate his position, so he sent Tristan to Ireland to propose marriage for him.

How did he know that the princess of Ireland was Isolde, who was in love with Tristan.

In this way, the fate of the three people was entangled. Tristan had to follow the order of his lord, King Mark, and bring his lover back to Cornwall. And Isolde loved Tristan deeply, even after becoming the Duke and Queen of Cornwall.

It hasn't changed either.

King Mark's jealousy and hatred of Tristan grew day by day, and he tried to kill him many times.

Although Tristan overcame many difficulties, he finally fell under King Mark's calculations, and Isolde died in love.

King Mark was forced to bury the two together. The story of Tristan and Isolde has been passed down forever.

After listening to this story, Kano's expression seemed to be wearing a mask of pain.

According to his moral values, everyone in this story should learn what public order and good customs are.

But given the social environment at that time, every aspect of this story turned out to be quite reasonable.

"The story of Tristan and Isolde is really... a bit of a test of people's acceptance." Kano commented carefully and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"It's okay, brother. In fact, there is a simple version. Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is based on the story of our ancestors, but it's more acceptable." Sean patted Kano's shoulder very understandingly.

Kano followed Sean to appreciate several ancient paintings hanging in his study room, as well as the handwritten script of "Romeo and Juliet" that they specially acquired back then.

Night fell quickly, and the butler Robert prepared a battle meal that was easy to digest and full of nutrition.

"Cano, I wish you success." Sean raised the grape juice and said, "After a while, I will also go to hold the battle for you."

"Thanks, Sean." Cano responded with a toast.

"By the way, what are the characteristics of King Mark?" Kano suddenly remembered that this is also an important piece of information.

Unexpectedly, Sean shook his head: "King Mark was one of the rare kings at that time who was unwilling to go to the battlefield. Because of his insidious and cautious character, he never revealed his characteristics."

"But it doesn't matter. An overly cautious knight like him will not gain any powerful characteristics."

"Characteristics are closely related to heredity, personality and personal physical fitness."

Kano nodded, feeling no fear. After all, before he knew about the existence of characteristics, he had fought so many Knights of the Round Table one by one.

A King Mark who is good at intrigues shouldn't be a problem.
