Travel Notes of Wisteria Flowers

To be honest, Izesugi has a good sense of Merlin.

Although Merlin doesn't have human emotions, and can't understand the thickness and reality of emotions, Merlin clearly knows how to integrate into human beings, and how to do it in order to conform to human cognition.

According to Merlin, he likes to watch human beings face various challenges, and he prefers to watch the ending of happy ending. The comedy of Dzogchen can bring joy and joy to the bottom of the heart, and this is the only emotion that Merlin can perceive.

Merlin will play the role of an expert who provides cheats to the protagonist, watching the protagonist overcome difficulties and obstacles to achieve a perfect ending. In the end, the protagonist will be happy, and Merlin will also be rewarded with joy, which is a win-win situation.

So generally speaking, even though Merlin's nature is terrible, in the public perception, he is still a kind person.

In the beginning, Meilin was attracted to Izesugi because of the deep friendship in Izesugi's heart.

It was a terrifying emotion that was huge, hot, and warm enough to melt everything, as if a volcano that was constantly accumulating energy, occasionally released a little bit of hot magma, which could completely submerge Merlin.

It was as if Merlin encountered a box full of treasures. The box was locked, and he could only occasionally smell a little fragrance of wealth through the gap of the lock.

"...he's not human."

Izeshan said to Artoria: "Remember the unicorn we rode when we came back? Merlin is essentially a half-succubus, don't put human thinking on him."

"Do you know what a succubus is?" Izeshan asked Artoria, and after getting the girl's nod, Izeshan said with satisfaction: "It seems that King Bei also gave an enlightenment education on magic, which is very good .”

Artoria was dumb, not knowing what to say, so she could only keep silent.

"The succubus is a creature without emotion, and Merlin is a mixed-blood succubus. He has human intelligence and can perceive the emotion called joy, so he will do whatever it takes to obtain joy."

Izesugi explained: "Animal hunting is naturally omnipotent, but from a human point of view, sometimes Merlin's actions are very terrifying and disgusting."

After hearing this, Arturia was deeply convinced that her father was right!

"If Merlin does something that makes you uncomfortable, but you can't tell the reason, don't hesitate, follow your intuition, and just beat him up. At best, he will run away and dare not fight back."

Izeshan said: "The animal world has always followed the natural principle that the weak obey the strong. You treat him as a fluffy, lawless magical creature. When he is not doing anything, just beat him."

Arturia: "..."

Just imagine Merlin turning into a white long-haired cat, this... so cute, I can't do it!

"Merlin himself is a naughty guy. You can't believe everything he says, and you can't disbelieve it. You have to learn to see through his heart and learn to distinguish which words are true and which are false."

Izeshan changed his voice when he said this: "But you are too young and inexperienced to be able to tell the difference, so you take everything he said as a joke, and just throw it away after hearing it."

Arturia was a little surprised, she said in surprise: "Can you see through the heart of Your Excellency Merlin?"

Izeshan smiled: "The human heart is the most complicated existence, and it can even give birth to ghosts and gods. Merlin is a semi-magical creature. His mind is much simpler than that of humans, so it is not difficult."

He said gently, "Arthur, as a king, you have to understand what your subjects are thinking, even if you can't fight, even if you can't solve government affairs, but this is the only thing you have to do."

After hearing this, Artoria couldn't bear it any longer. She took a step forward and asked eagerly, "How can I do it? How can I understand people's hearts?"

Izeshan couldn't hold back, he reached out and touched Artoria's head: "Don't worry, I will teach you slowly."

The moment Izeshan touched Artoria, Arturia's heartbeat accelerated suddenly, as if the heart of the red dragon was responding to the call of the former owner.

Artoria suddenly felt strong strength and support from it.

She tentatively stretched out her hand and grabbed King Uther's cuff. The girl raised her face and said, "...Maybe I should be grateful to Lord Merlin. If it wasn't for him, I might not be able to see you."

Arturia thought that she should really thank Merlin.

In any case, it was great for her to meet such a father.

Izeshan's expression softened, Arthur is really a good child, and he needs to teach him carefully.

Time passed by, and Merlin finally came back late at night the next day.

Izeshan had been waiting for a long time, he and Merlin quickly handed over the work, and went to the military camp in the suburbs overnight.

Given that Izeshan has complete control over the army's logistics and supplies, and is familiar with the strength and generals of each army, he reopened King Uther's tuba to talk to the knights, and there would be no flaws.

Artoria slept in the Camelot Palace. Early in the morning, Mrs. Cornwall received Izeshan's order in advance and prepared boy's clothes for Artoria.

Arturia went to see Merlin after changing her clothes, and then she found that the Merlin in front of her was real.

"...Are you back? Has the father passed away?"

Merlin took a step forward and hugged Artoria.

"Ah, the fragrant and soft little Al is so cute~" Merlin was a little regretful: "It's a pity that he didn't wear a small skirt."

Artoria didn't braid her hair today, but let the broken hair fall down, and matched it with boy's clothes. Even without illusion, she looked no different from boys of the same age.

Arturia tilted her head to look at the smiling Merlin, and said abruptly, "Are you happy?"

Merlin nodded cheerfully: "Yes, I can finally watch your growth with my own eyes, of course I am happy."

Artoria was noncommittal: "My father taught me a lot."

Merlin looked at the girl in surprise: "As far as I know, he hasn't brought you by his side to raise him, has he? What have you learned?"

Arturia smiled suddenly: "Father said, you are a magical creature, if you don't do anything, if you beat you up, you will be obedient."

Merlin was dumbfounded after hearing this. He tilted his head and thought for a while before admitting, "From the point of view of magical creatures, what King Uther said is correct, what? Al, do you want to beat me up? I was hunted down by the white dragon before." , haven’t been beaten by the Red Dragon yet.”

The corner of Arturia's mouth twitched, and she pulled Merlin's long hair in retaliation. Merlin grinned and begged for mercy, "It hurts! I admit defeat! Don't pull it~"

Although the girl knew that Merlin was acting, she still let go.

"...Generally speaking, although you lied to me that it was an illusion and cost me three years, I don't hate this journey of life."

"Thank you, Merlin, for being able to see my father in such a form."

Merlin stared at King Arthur. He saw the blond king through the girl's body, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Obviously he was the one who brought her such a cruel and harsh fate, and even came a second time, but she was still grateful to him in her heart, such a noble and upright king...

"You're welcome, I also want to see how far you can go under the guidance of King Uther."

Merlin put Arturia down as if nothing had happened, and he straightened the girl's collar: "Let's go, let's meet King Uther who has returned in triumph."

King Uther led the knights and the army back to Camelot, and the people spontaneously gathered and cheered on the avenue before entering the palace.

Izeshan occasionally raised his hand to greet the people, or nodded slightly to accept the love and respect of the people. The knights behind him also puffed up their chests with smiles on their faces.

After doing a circle of image projects, Izeshan took people back to the palace.

At the gate of the palace, Merlin led the nobles to welcome Izeshan. Of course, the most eye-catching thing was the little prince Arthur standing beside Merlin.

After seeing King Uther coming back, Merlin bowed his head and signaled to Artoria.

So, in front of countless nobles and knight commanders, Artoria walked up to King Uther steadily and knelt down on one knee: "Father, I wish you victory and return."

Izesugi turned over and got off the horse. He reached out and hugged Arturia, put the girl on the saddle, and then he got on the horse again.

He said loudly: "This is a victory for all of us who fought for Camelot, whether it is the frontline soldiers or the rear servants, you have worked hard."

The nobles and ministers who stayed behind said excitedly that this is what they should do.

Izeshan said loudly again: "Camelo has such a powerful army and knights, nobles and ministers who are dedicated to their efforts, and..."

He held up Arthur: "My son Arthur, God has given me a child, I believe Camelot's future will be even better, God bless Camelot!"

The knights and the nobles shouted together: "God bless Camelot!"

Amidst the cheers of countless people, Izesugi led Artoria into the palace on horseback.

The knights behind him got off their horses, and they were ushered into the side hall next to the palace hall by the ladies who had been waiting for a long time, preparing to change their clothes to participate in the palace feast.

Arturia was also excited by the scene of such a united heart.

After she finally calmed down, she realized that she was already sitting in the room where King Uther was handling state affairs. King Uther was sitting on the throne, and she was sitting on a small chair next to the throne. The archbishop was reporting to King Uther.

Artoria hurriedly collected her mind and listened carefully.

King Uther has a lukewarm attitude towards religion. The king will not ignore the role of religion in people's hearts, but he will not allow the archbishop to intervene in domestic affairs.

Moreover, when the archbishop was reporting on his work, Merlin, the national teacher representing the native British religion, stood on one side and interrupted from time to time, which made the scene tense and cold at times.

Arturia carefully observed King Uther.

She found that King Uther didn't seem to care about such a situation, and even occasionally spoke out to provoke the two, and Merlin was happy to cooperate, making the archbishop's face even more ugly.

But soon, King Uther spoke to appease the archbishop. With the food and tax paid for the three-year war, if the archbishop hadn't helped appease the people, it would have been impossible to maintain a relatively stable and stable social environment in the country.

Finally, King Uther made a promise that he would allow the Archbishop to come and teach King Arthur the Bible for an hour every morning.

The archbishop was overjoyed when he heard the words, and the anger and anxiety in his heart were swept away, leaving only joy and excitement.

The archbishop bowed deeply: "It is my honor to be the enlightenment of His Highness's faith, and I will do my best to teach His Highness."

Seeing this scene, Artoria let out a long breath.

Through such a pull and a fight, King Uther successfully balanced the power of the two sects in the country, allowing both sects to be used by the country.

My father is indeed better at handling state affairs.

Arturia widened her eyes and observed carefully, she must study hard!
