I weave fate in parallel time and space
Chapter 603 You don’t understand Arthur as well as I do
Daniel and others did not stay in the Steam City for long, but used the method of apparation to reach Sashili.
This tourist city in the south is an exchange center for many cultures, and many items from Europe and the East are sold here.
Of course, although it has expanded over the years, the fjord topography of Sassili makes it easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it also limits the flow here.
With the progress of the times, the tonnage of ships has gradually increased, and the ports here can no longer meet the demand for shipping. Therefore, in today's era, this city relies more on tourism and agricultural and animal husbandry products as its main economic pillars.
"Have you been here, Moses?" Daniel asked.
"I've been here before." Moses looked at everything around him with a deep look, "But I haven't been here for a long time."
"A lot has changed here." Moses said in a low voice.
In the past, Sashili was just a small village with brick roads and most of the houses were made of wood. However, now the brick roads have been widened and turned into asphalt roads, and many of the surrounding houses have become more... It is a brick and stone house, but it also has a Sashili style.
This town has become more prosperous, with ancient buildings and modern facilities complementing each other, showing a strong historical heritage and modern atmosphere.
The streets of the town are lined with a wide variety of shops, restaurants and cafes, offering a wide range of goods and services. There is an endless stream of tourists and it is very lively. Local handicrafts, fresh ocean delicacies, and specialty products from all over the world make people want to stay here.
The fresh air, the green grassland, the snow-capped mountains and snow-melting waterfalls in the distance, everything is so strange and familiar.
"This is actually my first time here. I heard that the beef here is very delicious." Daniel said, looking around, "This is the source of the cattle in my pasture."
"Have you ever dealt with a dragon before?" Adam, who had been silent on one side, finally asked Moses his question.
"Didn't I say it before?" Mercer smiled, "I have only dealt with some similar things, but of course I never fought them in the end."
"Can't even beat you?" Daniel said curiously.
"Yeah, that guy is really scary. I tried my best. I was much younger than I am now, but I still almost died in his hands." He said with emotion.
His words caught Morgan's attention, and she couldn't help but turn her head to look at Mercer.
"Who is he?" Morgan asked curiously, "Or what are you dealing with?"
"His name should be Hypnos." Mercer recalled it and said with some uncertainty.
As he finished speaking, both Morgan and Daniel opened their eyes slightly and looked at Mercer in astonishment.
"Xiusupu!!?" Daniel shouted subconsciously, but he seemed to realize something and covered his mouth.
Also because his voice was so loud, it also attracted the attention of the people around him, causing them to turn their heads and look this way.
Daniel realized that he had lost his composure, and smiled awkwardly and politely at those who looked over.
The others nodded at him, but then looked away and went to do their own things.
Daniel lowered his voice, looked at Mercer in disbelief and asked, "Have you really fought with that existence?"
"I never lie," Mercer said.
"What is Hypnos?" Adam asked.
At some point he had a candied haws in his hand. There are many Han Chinese in Britannia itself, and because of its geographical location, there are many exchanges with the East, so it is normal to sell such things.
Not only candied haws, there are actually some shops opened by Indians here that sell some magical oils.
Daniel was stunned and looked at Adam, "Have you never heard of this name?"
Adam shook his head.
"If you didn't sleep every day during class, you would have a lot less doubts now." Morgan said helplessly from one side.
"I don't sleep every day!" Adam said unconvinced, "Only occasionally!"
"Then I'll ask you a random question in class, can you answer it?" Morgan said.
"You ask." Adam said confidently.
"What's the first chapter in the new 1919 History of Magic?"
"emm" Adam scratched his head, his eyes a little distracted.
"It's about Merlin." Daniel sighed, "Your father is also the teacher of the History of Magic class, Daniel."
"Especially in History of Magic class, he sleeps the best," Morgan said, "because his father never wakes him up."
Daniel sighed and said, "His father has always felt guilty about him."
"Okay, don't talk about it. You haven't told me what Hypnos is?" Adam said.
"The current ruler of Hades is the Great God of Death, and this name belongs to his younger brother, the God of Sleep." Morgan said from one side, "This is the real name, so try not to pronounce this name as much as possible in the future. They usually are There will be sentience, but they generally won't care about little characters like us, but there's no guarantee that he will come to us to settle accounts one day when he's in a bad mood."
"Sleep" Adam opened his eyes suddenly and looked at Moses in disbelief, "Have you ever fought with a god before?"
Even dragons can only be called "under gods". Whether in the past or in this era, gods stand at the top of the world and dominate all things.
The dragons were defeated by them, and the demons were driven to hell by them. The only one who could defeat God was God.
And the existence in front of me actually fought with gods and survived. It was simply unbelievable.
"Almost," Moses said, "but I still lost."
"It's normal to lose, but it's abnormal to win." Daniel complained. Somehow, hearing the enemies that Moses had fought against, he felt that it was normal for him to kill a dragon with just one sword.
"What else have you fought with before?" Daniel asked curiously.
Mercer smiled, "Didn't you say you wanted to accompany me to buy gifts? If I keep talking here, my Christmas will be late."
Although Daniel still wanted to ask something, he still nodded.
"How old is that niece of yours?"
"Probably." Moses recalled, "About a hundred years old."
"Your niece lives a long life, too," Morgan said.
"Yes." Mercer smiled, "She looks very young."
Morgan thought for a moment and said, "Then we need to buy something that the old man likes. How about jewelry?"
"She prefers things with a mechanical feel," Messer said.
Daniel raised his eyebrows and nodded, "This is a rare interest."
He seemed to have thought of something and looked at Morgan, "Don't you have a lot of this kind of thing there?"
Morgan thought for a moment and said, "Let me think of something more suitable."
"How embarrassing." Moses said a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, you saved our lives, that's right." Morgan waved his hand and said, "And we have a lot of these things at home."
At this time, while they were chatting, a girl was walking in a hurry. Because there were a lot of people around, she accidentally passed by Daniel and bumped into him.
"Sorry." The girl quickly turned around and apologized.
But suddenly, she seemed to have discovered something. She looked at Daniel carefully and said in surprise.
"Are you Daniel?"
Daniel was stunned for a moment, then frowned and looked at the girl suspiciously.
She looked about twenty years old, youthful and beautiful, with long brown hair permed in a spring curl that was very modern in this era, and with the slightly upturned corners of her mouth, she was elegant but friendly.
Her clothes are as gorgeous and beautiful as her smile. Wearing a long skirt embroidered with flowers, the skirt swayed gently with her steps, like a blooming flower.
She is a very beautiful girl.
Daniel recalled with some confusion, "Are you Staley?"
"That's right." Stali nodded and said happily, "I didn't expect to see you here. Have you come to work here?"
"Come here for a trip." Daniel casually found a reason.
The girl in front of him was his childhood sweetheart, but he spent most of his time at Hogwarts after his teenage years and only went back during holidays. As time went by, the relationship gradually became unfamiliar.
Daniel is a magician, and she is an ordinary person, which means they are not from the same world.
Stali said, "Your dad said you transferred to another school. I went to look for you several times, but you weren't home."
"My school is a boarding school," Daniel said.
"I understand, many private schools are boarding schools." Starlie nodded. “What about you?” Daniel said, “Are you here for traveling too?”
"Yes." Staley turned her head to look at the city, and then took out a book from the bag she was carrying. On the cover of the book were the words "The Legend of Arthur the Great" Character.
If you are an ordinary person, you may confuse this book with "The Legend of King Arthur", but these are actually two similar but not the same books.
The similarity is that both books are about Arthur, but the difference is that this book is about the great emperor of Britannia.
However, if someone who knows nothing else reads these two books separately, they will probably think that the latter is a plagiarist, because the stories of the two are too similar.
"This book says that in his childhood, Emperor Arthur learned how to become a real king from a wise man here. He was also a local legend, the original founder of the Mafia and the head of the Valentine family. The first head of the family, Hart Valentine.”
"Arthur the Great's teacher is a gangster?" Adam raised his eyebrows.
"There is a proverb in Beichen called "Those who have mastered come first," which means that learning cannot be distinguished by age, age, or status. Those who are knowledgeable are teachers." Stali said while holding the book, "This also represents The humble character of Arthur the Great is actually the same to him, whether he is a gangster, a beggar, or an ordinary person."
Adam nodded, what he said did make sense.
Moses spoke slowly from one side.
"The Valentine family at that time was actually completely different from today's gangs. At that time, the West French invaders occupied the city, took away their land, their cattle, and even killed many locals. Man, raped young women.
In order to protect themselves and the town, the angry Sassilian people, led by Hart Valentine, drove the invaders out of the city.
At that time, the main source of revenue for the Mafiyas was shipping. At that time, due to wars, there were many pirates on the shipping routes, so they had to build up their own armed forces and control certain ports.
In other words, the organization was originally created to protect the town. "
Starlie slowly turned her head and looked at Moses. Looking at his old appearance and eyes full of wisdom, it seemed that he was a wise man who had experienced a lot and knew a lot.
Staley nodded politely to him, and then said, "That's what the book says as well."
"But why did it become the Mafia later?" Adam asked puzzledly.
"Because the generation of true believers has died, and power is always easy to corrode people's hearts." Moses whispered softly.
"At least in Sassily, the Valentine family actually retained some of the original things." Staley said, "Mafia, which was created at that time, needed to keep shipping flowing, so it occupied many ports and was in many places. Countries are also distributed. The disorderly expansion caused the organization to become very bloated, and eventually split due to certain things. Most of the mafia in your mind are these split families.
In Tashili, the Valentine family is actually still ensuring the stability of Sashili. "
She looked around, hugged the book in her hand, and said while suppressing the excitement in her heart.
"Legend has it that Arthur was also a participant in the Sassilian Revolution. It was precisely because of his powerful power that the Sassilian people were able to fight against those powerful invaders. He saved Hart Valentine many times."
"No." Mercer on one side said directly, "He didn't do anything at the time, he was even playing elsewhere."
After a pause, he continued, "But he did save him once, but it was only that once."
Starlie frowned slightly and looked at Mercer. Although the elder in front of her was very old, she still felt a little unhappy about denying the legend of the idol he admired. She asked, suppressing her emotions.
"How do you know?"
Moses slowly raised the corners of his mouth, "He told me."
Staley: "."
She pursed her lips and couldn't help but said, "Even based on the time when Emperor Arthur died, it was more than a hundred years ago from today. You were probably not born at that time, right?"
After a pause, she said, "I have studied King Arthur for many years and found a lot of information. You may be very old, but maybe you really don't know King Arthur as well as I do. He does have amazing military power. Moreover, the army in West France was very powerful at that time, and it was definitely not something that a temporary resistance organization formed by ordinary small town residents could resist."
"The Sashili people at that time were not ordinary small town residents," Mercer said with a strange expression.
He looked around and looked at the friendly and smiling Sashili people, "But in recent years, the folk customs here are indeed not as "simple" as in the past."
Starlie seemed to want to say something else, but Daniel hurriedly came out to smooth things over, "Sorry, Starlie, you know that at his age, he will be a little old and confused."
Starlie looked at Daniel, her brows relaxed slightly, and she had no intention of continuing to argue with Mercer. She just smiled at him and said, "Where do you plan to develop in the future? Are you still studying?"
"Still." Daniel said.
"I'm also going to study in the royal capital of Britannia, at the Royal School of Art."
"That's great, that's one of the best schools in Britannia." Daniel said happily, "I remember you always wanted to get into this school, right?"
"I hope to see the place where Emperor Arthur stayed and see the legendary Sword in the Stone." Starlie said with a rosy face. She was very much looking forward to her future life. "I have also been to the Spanish Empire before. The original site of the imperial capital is the same as the place where King Arthur led the army to land. Do you know how far the landing place is from the imperial capital of the West Asian Empire?"
She seemed about to say something else, but a well-dressed couple on the other end shouted at her.
"Stali!"
"I'll be there soon!" Staley replied.
She turned her head to look at Daniel and said with a sweet smile, "My father called me."
Daniel nodded, "Goodbye."
"I hope to meet you again in the imperial capital." Stali said.
Daniel smiled, "It always will be, we are still very young."
"That's right." Staley nodded, then turned around and left.
Daniel watched Staly's leaving figure quietly, silent and speechless.
"Do you like her?" Adam suddenly asked.
Daniel opened his eyes and looked at Adam in shock.
Morgan raised the corner of his mouth and joked, "I never expected to hear such words from a person like you."
Adam's parents are very good-looking, so Adam is naturally the same. His facial features are very three-dimensional. Whether it is Western or Eastern aesthetics, he is a very sunny and handsome boy.
So of course, there are many young girls in Hogwarts who have a crush on him.
However, everyone who knows him should know that he is very venomous and his emotional intelligence fluctuates.
A girl once asked him if he wanted to taste her lipstick. Adam was so curious that he bit off half of her lipstick in one bite and thought it tasted ordinary.
I heard that the lipstick is a limited edition produced by a big company and is very expensive.
Another time during the holiday, a girl told him that her parents were going on a trip for a week, and she was the only one who was scared. Adam made a backhand and went to Morgan to get an alchemy hand cannon and a teleportation hand card and gave them to her. He also boasted proudly in front of Morgan about how considerate he was.
"I've always been so insightful, okay?" Adam said confidently.
He looked at Daniel, "She is very enthusiastic about you."
“She was very welcoming to everyone,” Daniel said.
He turned his head and looked at the place where Staley left, "When she was a child, she was the best at studying among all the people. She could also sing and dance. She also had a good personality and was very popular."
"Did you like her before?"
"I wasn't even twelve years old at that time, so I had nothing to say." Daniel shook his head.
"Speaking of it, you haven't seen each other for so long, and it's really fate that you can suddenly bump into each other in a foreign country." Morgan commented with his arms folded in front of his chest.
"She was still a student during the Christmas vacation, so she had a lot of time to travel. And she also likes the story of Arthur the Great. It's really normal to meet her here." Daniel said.
He looked at Moses and changed the subject.
"Mr. Mercer, have you really met Arthur?"
Although they knew that Daniel was changing the subject, Morgan and Adam also looked at Mercer curiously.
They knew that Moses might be well over a hundred years old, so it was possible that they had actually met Arthur.
Moses smiled and said, "So be it."
"What kind of person is he?" Daniel was obviously very curious about this world-famous celebrity.
After all, although there are many macho men in this world, there are still no legends like the one that swept the world like when Arthur the Great was born.
"An ordinary person." Moses said, "Actually, he is just like you and me. There is nothing special about him."
"Okay." Daniel was obviously disappointed, but he also knew that speaking truth is what an old man of this age likes.
"It's time to choose a gift," reminded Moses.
Daniel looked at Morgan, and Morgan said, "Then let's go back. There should be a lot of things she hopes for in my father's alchemy cabin."
Moses thought for a moment, then nodded (End of Chapter)
