Light Spirit Epic Chapter 1916: Lion’s Heart
Chapter 1916 Lion Heart Bloodline (3)
The night is getting darker.
A young man is led to the Admiral's office following a soldier's announcement. Admiral Penzance had been waiting for the young man there, so when he walked in, the admiral did not show a particularly surprised look.
"Your idea is so bold, Lord Admiral." After Arthur walked into the room, he automatically closed the door, so as not to let people outside the door hear their conversation: "You want me to see a crazy man. Witch, what's the point of letting her talk nonsense to me?"
"Oh? Did Miko-sama speak to you [gibberish]? What did she tell you?" The Admiral replied calmly.
"For example, I am a descendant of Edward." Arthur said in a low voice: "For example, it is for me to take back the kingship that belongs to me."
"Oh, so interesting?"
Arthur took out a golden gorse pendant from his pocket, which was the token given to him by the priestess.
"Oh------!" Admiral Penzance exclaimed in a low voice: "Master Miko once swore to protect this token with her life, and she would never easily call it the hands of those who don't deserve it. On. Now that you have obtained this token, it seems that your identity is indeed------"
"Can't it be that I killed the witch and grabbed this token?" Arthur interrupted the other party's words.
"Huhuhu, you can't kill her, I can be sure of that." Admiral Penzance smiled indifferently.
"So...what should I do next?" Arthur asked, his voice lower: "You don't mean to kill ------"
"Wow!" At this moment, someone suddenly crashed in from outside the door, interrupting the conversation between Arthur and Admiral Penzance.
The intruder was a seven or eight-year-old child whom Arthur seemed to have seen before. Oh yes, Arthur remembered. Isn't this kid the kid who wanted to "buy" Bedivere from Arthur?
Why is this kid in the Admiral's castle? It seems that this kid should be the child of a nobleman, right?
"What are you doing here, Your Majesty?" Admiral Penzance then rose from his seat and asked the child.
(Your Majesty?)
"Shh!" The child said nervously, "Miranda is forcing people to take a shower again, Admiral, where can I hide here, hurry up!"
"Huhuhu." The old man didn't say anything, he just smiled meaningfully and clicked on a hidden box next to his bookcase. The mechanism in the bookcase was then opened, and inside was a small secret room just big enough to hide one person.
"Thank you, I owe you." The kid immediately got into the secret room to hide, and Admiral Penzance also closed the bookcase and hid the child.
"Hmm ------" At this moment, another middle-aged woman dressed as a lady broke in outside the door. She looked around as soon as she came in, but she quickly checked the whole room, Immediately without being rude, he bowed to Admiral Penzance: "Good evening, Lord Admiral Penzance. Have you seen Your Majesty? He clearly ran this way, but disappeared in a blink of an eye. the figure."
"He should have run towards the corridor opposite the office, where there is a relatively secret staircase leading to the rooftop." Admiral Penzance said.
"So it turns out, this castle is really a labyrinth full of secrets." The woman saluted again, "I'll go look for it. I'll disturb the Admiral. Good night."
Then the woman turned around and went out, walking gracefully for a short distance before starting to run.
"Hmm..." Arthur couldn't help humming: "Did you just say [Your Majesty]...?"
"Yes. Hiding inside is His Majesty King Henry VI, King of England." Admiral Penzance cast his gaze towards the bookcase, as if he was about to turn the switch on the bookcase.
Arthur had already stopped the admiral's movements one step ahead, and walked up quickly, his hand was already on the hilt of his sword.
Walking through the iron shoes is nowhere to be found, and it takes no effort to get it!
Arthur came to England for the kid. As long as the current King of England is killed, the country will inevitably fall into a turmoil, and then it will be powerless to invade France. In this way, the Hundred Years' War will be stopped, and Joan of Arc will not have to continue to lead the French resistance, she will be liberated from her responsibilities.
In this way, Joan of Arc may be willing to go back with Arthur, back to Great Britain nine hundred years ago.
As long as this kid is killed, Arthur's journey will be over!
"Don't get excited, young man." However, Admiral Penzance held Arthur's palm with one hand, preventing him from drawing his sword: "You only want to hurt a child. And you do nothing. Meaningless."
"Why did you say this?" Arthur's murderous intent at this moment was actually as strong as darkness, permeating the entire room. Even people who couldn't read words and expressions would have already noticed it. Arthur, who had a fierce look in his eyes, even planned to kill Admiral Penzance, if the Admiral hadn't done that series of small actions before.
But Arthur, out of curiosity, wanted to hear what the Admiral had to say. It was the Admiral who asked Arthur to see Megow's nanny, and it was the Admiral Penzance who secretly encouraged Arthur to seize power and become the king of the country. Now the Admiral is preventing Arthur from assassinating King Henry VI of England, and everything he does is full of contradictions.
"Come on, take a step to speak." The admiral then said, pacing to the window.
At this time, Arthur can already open the bookcase's mechanism, and stab Henry VI to death with a sword at the moment when the secret room is opened. But he didn't do that, instead he followed the Admiral curiously.
"That child is just a puppet." Admiral Penzance whispered, "He is a puppet king raised by several royal palace nobles. If they can support one kid to be king, they can support another. Even if It's no use killing that kid. If you really want to get this country, Mr. Aslan, you can't just kill people impulsively. You need better planning to get power bit by bit."
"So?" Arthur asked coldly: "Admiral, you look down on me too much. How do you know that I must be interested in getting this country, instead of just wanting to destroy everything and watch this country Burned out in the fire?"
"Oh heh heh, I know you won't, Mr. Aslan. I know you won't." Admiral Penzance smiled while stroking his beard, turning his eyes to a portrait in the distance Above: "Real kings know how to judge the situation and only do what is best for them. I know that your purpose is not to destroy this country. Even if you destroy this country, you may not achieve your purpose, right?"
Arthur's first reaction was actually to make fun of Admiral Penzance, and with the sword drawn, he killed both the Admiral and Henry VI present.
But he thought about it for a moment, and felt that the Admiral's words were not unreasonable. There's no point in killing Henry VI, the people who really run the country's regime, who use the kid as a puppet, as an excuse to invade France, are actually still working in secret somewhere in England. Arthur can kill one king and they can elect another. They could say that Arthur was a murderer sent by France, and found a pretext to further invade France. They want to invade a country, and there are countless excuses. All of this is not something that can be solved just by assassinating a child.
"I don't know what you are thinking when you came to this country." Admiral Penzance saw that Arthur's murderousness had subsided a lot, and continued: "But I know that you are the same as me. I don't like this war. I think you are probably here to stop it. That's why you and I have a common language.
Penzance was originally a beautiful port city, it was so full of life, and the people's laughter and laughter lingered all day long. However, the war changed all that. Strong men were taken into the army, and the government forced large quantities of food and supplies every month, which exhausted the people of Penzance. Those selfish nobles want to destroy this city in pursuit of more power, and I have to do something.
This country doesn't need you to destroy it, Mr. Aslan. It had already been burned in an invisible fire, and the difference was burned away, collapsing like a rubble. You cannot destroy what is destroying, Mr. Aslan. unless------"
"Unless I work with you to uproot our common enemy, right?" Arthur blinked.
"Your understanding is correct, Mr. Aslan." Admiral Penzance smiled indifferently: "Now, can I release His Majesty the King?"
It was only at this point that Arthur's hand was released from the hilt of his sword.
"I sincerely hope you have a good plan, Lord Admiral Penzance." He said, "You know, I am an extremely impatient person. If things don't go as I expect , your head will probably move very early."
"I am fully aware of this risk." The admiral pressed the dark compartment on the bookshelf, and the bookshelf began to slowly open: "From the moment I received the news that Mr. Aslan had eliminated the Red Death, I immediately I know you're a tough guy."
(So he knows.)
(He knew that, and deliberately found Arthur.)
"Huh!" The child protruded from the back room of the bookshelf and breathed a sigh of relief: "Is Miranda gone? Thank you so much, Admiral. I thought Miranda was going to take a shower this time. What?"
"It is necessary to maintain good personal hygiene habits, Your Majesty." The Admiral smiled kindly: "But tonight, Your Majesty, please rest assured."
"Ah!" When the kid saw Arthur, he exclaimed: "Isn't this the big brother with the big wolf dog today? So you are the Admiral's guest~IndoMTL.com~ not really. "Arthur replied casually: "It's just a temporary partner."
"Well...I don't understand." The boy tilted his head and said, "Then I should go too. Good night everyone!"
Then the kid ran away.
"How long will he stay in your castle?" Arthur asked in a low voice, looking at Henry VI who was far away.
"Your Majesty is here just to escape the summer, and will go back to London after playing for a few days. Don't try to play him again, it's useless." The Admiral replied, "I think you're tired too, Mr. Aslan. I've already I ordered someone to prepare a clean wing for you in the castle, you can stay at any time and have a good rest."
"No need." Arthur said, "I have already found a room in a hotel outside, and I have paid for it. I can't live without it. I can't live in your castle. There are too many idlers."
"Then do as you please, Lord Aslan." The Admiral did not keep Arthur.
