Druid’s Marvel Travels

Chapter 270: Heritage Ebony Sword

Burying his uncle Nathan Garrett in the family cemetery behind the castle, Dane glanced at the dark night and bowed deeply to Oakes:

"Sorry, President... I'll replace my uncle..."

"No, he has already paid the price."

Oaks stopped Dane, he patted the young man on the shoulder, and said with some emotion:

"In the afternoon, I was even looking forward to the classical aristocratic tea party that your uncle told me before, but I didn't expect...

You can choose to avenge me, or you can choose to atone for your uncle, no matter what, I respect your choice. "

"I won't choose revenge, President."

Dane took a long breath and said firmly:

"Uncle told me everything, the crime he committed... more than that."

"Um?"

Oaks was really surprised:

"What's the meaning?"

"Uncle, he failed to inherit the ebony sword of the ancestor Sir Percy, so he has been unwilling--

But in fact, even if there is no president of you, uncle is already full of evil. "

Dane looked at Oaks' wide eyes and shook his head with a wry smile:

"On the surface, he is a renowned geneticist in academia, and in the dark, he is the super criminal 'Black Knight'—

This title started to be bad in England ten years ago, but with the battle of New York, the Avengers have been active, and they have disappeared.

Uncle, he told me that it was because he saw your performance, President of the New York War, and put all his energy into the ancient inheritance obtained by research. "

"..."

What else can Oaks say, this guy is a habitual offender!

"Uncle, the reason why he doesn't have a good relationship with me is because of his ultra-nationalism in private—

He considers the Anglo-Saxons, enemies of King Arthur, who now spread over the lands of Britain, to be blasphemous to their ancestors . . . ”

Dane spread his hands helplessly:

"It's a very helpless idea, isn't it? But uncle, he is stubborn.

So the purpose of his doing these things is to gain extraordinary power and 'purify' Britain...

It was only just now that he realized his mistake and left the matter of atonement to me. "

"..."

Oaks covered his forehead. Is there such a thing here? !

Garrett, "purifying" Britain?

Fortunately, I didn't see Dane's face leaving him!

"Now the British themselves don't care about this... After thousands of years of changes in the world, the legend of King Arthur has been changed by the dynasties of various eras for their own rule. I don't know how many times."

Oakes shrugged in disbelief:

"The King of Britain in Celtic legend is called a devout believer of God by the church. To put it this way, as a descendant of Gudruyin, do I still have to overthrow the Vatican and rectify the name of King Arthur? "

"Uh... So, my uncle and I have always had a big conflict, and this is just one aspect of it."

Dane sighed:

"Then next, we have to see the troublesome things he left behind..."

He scratched his head in annoyance:

"Uncle said that the sword is very evil. I don't know if I can pass its test."

"Try it."

Oakes patted him on the shoulder:

"At least you're much safer when I'm here - and even if you're not recognized like your uncle, at least this thing won't endanger your life."

"It is."

Dane nodded and took Oaks back to the castle.

At least when Mr. President is here, he should be very safe.

So, after rummaging through boxes, Dane found an old long wooden box.

The wooden box is engraved with exquisite floating, and in the center is the emblem of a red bird.

"This thing... just looks weird..."

Dane took a deep breath and took out the key left by his uncle to open the lock, but gave up when he was about to open the box.

"I...I don't think I'm ready..."

Dane took two steps back, rubbed his hands, his face was nervous and strange:

"I was preparing to become a civilian a few hours ago, managing the affairs of a continent in the club, but now I have to touch magic?"

He looked at Oaks for help:

"President, will this be too sudden!"

"It's all at this point, you don't care if it's sudden or not."

Oakes touched his chin, then slapped him with a wave of his hand...

A slap-like mark flashed across Dane's head, making him feel that his physical fitness and spirit had improved in all aspects!

"Is that all right? Thinking that you have been trained to practice swordsmanship since you were a child, do you think this day is normal?

Don't worry, it won't change if you should be the branch president and be a clerk. "

Oakes encouraged Dane with a smile:

"Hurry up, open it and take a look. You must know that this is made by Archmage Merlin... Well, at least it is a magical weapon enchanted by him. There is no such good thing in Avalon!"

"..."

Dane grinned, but Oakes' wild blessing gave him a lot of confidence.

So he gritted his teeth, took two steps forward, and slowly opened the wooden box—

"Death... is a reward for me..."

An ethereal voice came from the wooden box, causing Dane to take a few steps back with a look on his face.

"This……"

He stared intently at the ancient handwriting engraved on the back of the wooden box's lid, and took a long time to look away.

Inside the box is a black velvet backing, on which is a black knight's two-handed sword wrapped tightly by strips of runecloth.

"This is... a magic seal?"

Oaks squinted, he saw the effect of these rune cloth strips, although the magic power on them was very weak, it still played a role.

And the voice just now, very much like some kind of consciousness lodged on the ebony sword.

"..."

Dane swallowed. This sword looked very beautiful. The sword that emerged from the rune cloth seemed to have fine lines.

His breathing gradually became heavier, and he slowly stretched out his hand, reaching for the part of the blade that was not tangled by the runecloth strip—

As his fingers approached, the fine lines on the sword suddenly moved, surging in the direction of his hand!

Oaks on the side has sharp eyes, and Dane seems to be attracted by something, with a strange light flashing in his eyes, and his right hand is firmly pressed on the ebony sword!

"Om-"

A strange humming sound erupted, and the rune cloth seal on the ebony sword exploded, and then the fine lines on the sword's body were like flowing water, and it wrapped around Dane's body in the blink of an eye!

"This thing... such a strong enchantment!"

Oaks frowned, Dane's life signs were stable, and it was certain that this thing was not an evil weapon that would absorb life.

However, the powerful magic power on the ebony sword still made him secretly startled.

This thing is worthy of being produced by Merlin, who may be the supreme mage. As an ordinary person, Dane should have the ability to fight Steve with the addition of this sword!

The seal has disappeared, and Oaks really sensed the breath of the soul on this sword.

This should be the origin of the sound on the ebony sword.

"Uh……"

Dane, who was wrapped in black lines, seemed to be in some kind of mysterious "inheritance ritual", making an unconscious moan.

After a while, the ebony sword burst into a ray of light——

Oaks suddenly found that the long sword suddenly disappeared in the wooden box, and then appeared in Dane's hand in the form of the hilt being held!

At the same time, the black lines on Dane suddenly disappeared, and he slowly opened his eyes.

"Able to automatically summon... just like Mjolnir?"

Oaks smiled, and just wanted to come forward to express his congratulations, but saw Dane growl and kneel on the ground in pain!

"what!!"

As if he couldn't let go of one hand, he still held on to the hilt of the sword tightly, the other hand gripped his hair in pain, his eyes even turned bloody, and his breathing began to stroke!

"Kill...more..."

A low and painful roar sounded from Dane's mouth, but his voice seemed to be a different person.

Oaks' face turned solemn, and the magic in his hand slapped directly on Dane.

With the help of Oaks' magic, the blood in Dane's eyes faded a little, and he struggled to make his original voice:

"President...this sword...is tempting me...kill...ah...!!"

The green light lingered in Ox's hand, and he mobilized the huge power of nature around him, turning it into soothing magic, trying to dispel the abnormal state of Dane.

However, this powerful dispel effect can only make Dane awake for a few seconds at most, and then he will be swallowed by the bloodthirsty feeling!

"This is a curse... a powerful curse from the ebony sword, and the sword itself must be addressed—

disperse! "

Oaks tried to cast dispel magic on the ebony sword, but he found out that this sword has a strong resistance to magic!

Dispel magic doesn't work!

Oaks snorted coldly, and opened Avalon's teleportation channel directly beside him while maintaining the soothing spell on Dane.

A lot of vines stretched out from the passage, tied Dane firmly, and dragged him directly into the passage!

Oaks turned and stepped into the passage, mobilizing all the power of nature that could be mobilized——

"disperse!"

Launched a more powerful dispelling spell than when dispelling the Holy Oak before, the curse on the ebony sword was finally unable to resist!

"Thank you...Druyin..."

The soul fragments lodged on the sword dissipated in the air in a soft whisper, causing Oaks to narrow his eyes.

"Hu, hu, hu..."

Dane leaned on the ebony sword~lightnovelpub.net~ and knelt on the lawn in front of the holy oak tree, panting violently, and it took a long time for him to regain his senses.

"Ancestor..."

The curse has been dispelled, and he has completely mastered this family's magic weapon.

"The curse just now...is it Sir Percy?"

When Ox's voice came, Dane noticed that the environment he was in was completely different.

"It's the contaminated soul of the ancestor..."

Dane opened his mouth slowly, he remembered that he was in the castle:

"This... is this place?!"

"Your uncle's dream, the ideal land of independence, Avalon."

Oakes patted him on the shoulder:

"The real headquarters of Rende Club in the future!"
