Chapter 137 I Don't Need Love (Please Subscribe!!!)

The flag fluttered above the round table, and a biting damp cold wind blew from the stone path. A man wrapped in a cloak walked into the underground dark room, and the heavy iron door closed behind him.

He sat down on the high-backed stone stool, and the attendants lit the candles on the table.

"Persival, you're late."

Sitting on the main seat, Arthur closed his eyes and opened his eyes, looking at the figure under the candlelight.

"I was paying homage to Eckert when I received the news, and it took me some time on the way back." Eleventh Knight Parcival said.

Arthur nodded, and didn't mean to blame him, but rang the bell to announce the start of the meeting.

"About the cause of Eckert's death and the changes in the situation, we discussed it at the last meeting, and we urgently summoned you today because a major incident happened in Rosslare Port."

Arthur said in a deep voice: "According to the information brought back by Kay, the port of Rosslare has been occupied by a monster, and even the Rosslare garrison is under the control of monsters. The arrival of the goddess of health, Wilde, from the Church of the Three Fates Can kill each other. The situation is out of control."

There was silence in the dark room, and there was a faint sound of breathing. Everyone knew the importance of Rosslare's garrison, and lost them.
It also lost the capital to fight against the king's capital.

Even today when the gods descend, the army is the greatest power in the hands of the Knights of the Round Table, bar none.

"Originally, I wanted to recommend Bodell Wellesley, the commander of the Rosslare Army, to succeed my uncle and become the next Eckert. Now this plan may have to be shelved for the time being." Arthur said: "The loss of the Rosslare Army We cannot afford the consequences, so no matter what, the military must be brought back under our control."

Ding Ding Ding!
The second knight rang the bell and expressed his opinion: "Monster? What monster can defeat the goddess who has millions of believers? Is this kind of enemy we can shake? Kai, what happened tonight? ? We need to know the details!"

Under the agreement of Arthur's eyes, the ninth knight Kai stood up and told the things he had witnessed in detail. After listening
Ding Ding Ding!
Ding Ding Ding!
Ringing the bell one after another, everyone was full of doubts.

"Who is fighting tonight? Are they enemies?"

"Wild, the goddess of health, said that someone will take away the monster in Port Rosslare. Does that mean the third-party force that will take action tonight?"

"Set up a new organization of demon hunters to fight against the awakened transcendent? Will monsters like Rosslare Port continue to appear?"

Boom boom boom!
Arthur slammed the table loudly and overwhelmed all the noise. With a tense face, he said in a serious tone, "These questions will be answered in the future. There is no point in discussing it now. We must respond quickly and adapt to the situation!"

"Your Highness, what do you want to do?" the second knight rang the bell and asked.

"If the prediction of the goddess of health, Wilder, is correct, then the monster in Port Rosslare will not be a threat. The only question is whether the other party will take away the army. This matter is beyond our control." Arthur said with a straight face. : "Given the current situation, the existence of extraordinary beings is extremely important, so among us, someone must obtain the power of gods to fight against possible future changes!"

"But... our ally seems to be only the Church of Truth."

Perhaps because of uneasiness, the No. 12 knight who spoke forgot to ring the bell, and said in a weak voice: "If you want to gain the power of the gods, you must become a believer. You can't be a false believer on the surface, you must truly believe in it."

This alone restricts many people with ulterior motives.

Everyone understands, so no one has brought up the matter of becoming a believer before.

If it weren't for the special conditions, who wouldn't want to gain powerful power?

"I come."

Grabbing the bell on the table, the No. 11 knight, Percival, stood up abruptly: "I am willing to become a follower of the Church of Truth and receive the gift of the goddess."

"If you really believe in the truth, I think Father Mawei will give you strength."

Arthur took a deep breath: "Can you do it, Percival?"

"I don't know, but I'm willing to give it a try."

"Or... there is another way." The chief knight Lancelot rang the bell and said in a weird-sounding voice: "We let a believer who has received the gift of the goddess inherit the title of Eckert and become No. 16 Knights of the Round Table."

No one agrees, no one opposes, everyone is thinking about the feasibility of this matter.

"This matter will be discussed later. Every knight of the round table has been strictly screened. Unless there is no other choice, no one with doubts can join." Arthur shook his head: "Persival, then please .”

"clear."

"Just here today."

Just when Arthur was about to announce his disbandment, the chief knight Lancelot suddenly knocked on the table and asked softly, "Arthur, do you want to marry the saint Evelyn of the Church of the Three Fate Goddesses?"

Upon hearing this, the knights who were about to leave immediately sat back, half out of curiosity, and half out of watching a play.

"Lancelot, the matter about Evelyn was discussed at the last meeting."

"But this time I'm asking you whether you want to marry Evelyn, I'm asking about your choice!" There was not much respect in Lancelot's voice, but there was a hint of anger mixed in instead.

"I don't want to, but I have to. This is the best way to keep everyone safe. I just need to make a little sacrifice."

"Sacrifice. It's so easy to say."

Lancelot sneered, "Is there only sacrifice in your life?"

"I am not fighting alone, Lancelot, you know that."

"I have nothing more to say."

Lancelot got up and left, and entered the stone path behind the iron gate without looking back.

The knights looked at each other, seeing that Arthur's face was not very good-looking, they quickly slipped away and disappeared quickly.

A few minutes later, only Arthur and the second knight, Gawain, were left in the darkroom.

"Your Highness, you shouldn't treat Lancelot like this." Gao Wen said: "She gave up her honor and followed you to New Rose City at all costs, not just for loyalty."

"I know, Gawain, I know."

Rubbing between his brows, Arthur breathed a deep sigh of relief: "I understand what she wants, and I'm happy to do that. If I'm willing to give up all of this, of course I can fulfill her wish, but I can't, do you understand?"

Gao Wen nodded and nodded: "Yes, what you are following is completely different from what she is following, and sooner or later there will be conflicts."

"If you want to gain something, you have to lose something. No one can be an exception." Arthur raised his head and recovered his usual calmness: "Love cannot extinguish the flame of revenge in my heart. On the contrary, love is insignificant in my opinion. Business owners, must not be hindered by emotions!"
