The loyal knight felt the princess's foot stepping on a rather delicate position.

"Ian."

Morgan's body leaned forward slightly, and the fresh grass was pressed down a little by her movement.

"So what you did that day was also your choice?"

Ian is no fool.

He knew what Morgan was talking about - that was the night the two had transgressed their relationship for the first time.

"Yes, My Lady, that is also part of my choice."

"You gave me endless desires, and I, being worthless, can only give you my loyalty in return."

"So in the end it's still because of it..."

Morgan's toes danced gently in the water.

"You are the only one who will swear allegiance to me, right?"

"Neither nor."

Ian endured the tickling feeling.Then he took a deep breath.

"I admit that I have many unreasonable thoughts about you, princess, and I have had countless hallucinations of your graceful body before my eyes."

"But what really made me realize all this was your haggardness that night."

"I don't know how wronged you, my lady princess, were at the banquet, but you look like that, even as a knight, I feel very sorry for you."

"I hope to bring you joy in my own way and make you smile again, my dear princess."

"Of course, my selfish desires are also included in it."

Ian put it bluntly.

This kind of him made Morgan unable to even think of blaming him.

She understood that if she wanted him to raise his sword and kill himself because of such rebellious words, Ian would never hesitate at all.

But Morgan found that he could not do this.

"Ian, did you know that my father has another child?"

Ian nodded.

"know."

"That is the new heir that all Britain is cheering for."

"Well..." Morgan put a little more force on his feet.

"That's where my sadness comes from."

[The mystery from a few years ago is finally solved. 】

[Morgan told you everything she saw and heard at the banquet. 】

[You understand that Morgan actually knew that there would be such an heir for a long time, and from King Uther's attitude at that time, she felt that he valued this heir. 】

[She realizes she has been ignored. 】

[She was struggling hard, but the result still didn't change at all. 】

[The moment she was ordered to return to the capital by King Uther, she understood that she would be an abandoned princess. 】

"My Lady Princess..."

Ian got up from the water.

"Ian, what are you doing!" Morgan was very dissatisfied with Ian's behavior, "Didn't you say you will always be my knight?!"

"Yes, my lady, I will always be your knight."

Ian pushed Morgan down on the grass by the lake, and the lush greenery was pressed to both sides, like a toppled army.

"I can't look at you so sad."

"Cry in joy, my princess."

[Morgan did not resist you. 】

[She cried loudly under you, and grabbed your body with both hands, leaving marks on it. 】

[This is the first time you see her like this. 】

[You know she didn’t cry because of you, but because the ignored grievance accumulated over the years broke out. 】

[You begin to feel that these things are very unfair to Morgan. 】

[You have terrible thoughts in your mind. 】

[You want to overturn this for Morgan. 】

18. The loyalty rewards that knights should have (changed)

[Talent Energetic + has been replaced by Blessing of the Lake +: You were brought by Morgan to this place where she was born, and you begin to be recognized by this sacred and peaceful place. From now on, you will no longer feel tired. , your magic power has also been improved, and some low-level magic can no longer affect you. 】

[Once a terrible thought is born, it is difficult to get rid of it. 】

[When you start to realize that this is completely unfair to Morgan, you can no longer brush it off. 】

[You can't see Morgan in such pain, it makes your heart pierce every moment. 】

"Stop it, Ian."

Morgan stopped his sobs filled with sadness.

"I'm not sad anymore."

"Understood, my lady."

Ian's loyalty to Morgan is beyond imagination.

Morgan just gave this order, and he directly followed the guidance and stopped next to her.

Morgan, who sat up from the grass, couldn't help but feel a little funny when he saw how Ian clearly had some ideas but insisted on his name.

"Come on, let's sit closer."

"My Lady, this..."

"Ian, are you going to disobey me?"

The princess's orders are orders that must be obeyed absolutely.

Ian didn't say anything more, just sat down by the lake as Morgan asked.

And Morgan himself quickly sat next to this extremely loyal knight.

This time, the two people were no longer standing on the steps above the lake, but were sitting side by side.

[You were silent for a long time. 】

[The breeze in the forest caresses your faces, silently telling the passage of time. 】

[Even so, you feel that this is one of the few good times in your life. 】

[Although as a healthy male, you can't help but feel a throbbing when you are around Morgan. 】

[At this moment, Morgan’s hand touched yours, gently and yet politely. 】

"Didn't I scare you just now?" Morgan's voice sounded worried.

"Ian, you know, I'm not actually..."

"It's okay, my lady." Ian replied with a smile, "It is also the responsibility of a knight to make you forget your sorrow for a while."

Ian's words touched Morgan.

It had been a long time since she had released her inner sadness like this.

"You are a loyal knight."

Morgan bent down towards the lake in front of him and gently touched some of the water with his hands.

Her hands were soaked by the lake water, making them look whiter and smoother.

"I think it's time to reward you."

The next moment, Ian felt a burst of moisture - Morgan's hand touched his cheek.

"My Lady, you..."

"Don't you like it?" Morgan asked Ian, holding his chin with his other hand.

"Then I can let go now."

"No, that's not what I meant."

"Isn't that right?" Morgan's feet splashed gently in the water.

"But don't blame me for not telling you in advance that you are my pawn, and everything you can do is still within my control."

"My Lady, this is a little surprising to me."

"But you're not willing to let me let go, are you?" Morgan's mouth curved slightly.

"You said that you are loyal to me in everything, and I can do whatever I want."

"I understand, my lady..."

Morgan's fingers were slender and delicate, as smooth as the skin on the soles of his feet, and at the same time became extremely flexible due to the need to study magic.

She wiped her fingers back and forth on Ian's cheek, showing a warm and nostalgic look.

"Ian, it seems like we haven't tried this kind of thing in years?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Ian took a deep breath, "You remember correctly, the last time I got along with you like this was a long time ago."

"Then Vortigern must have shown you a lot of things, right?"

Ian shook his head.

"No."

"That's the reward for trampling on the British knights. I can't convince myself to accept it."

Morgan's expression became a little unbelievable.

"Ian, you mean you have never accepted Vortigern's reward?"

"Yes." Ian nodded, "I never got anything from him."

Listening to this description, the smart Morgan suddenly realized something.

"Then Ian, haven't you been suffering in this situation for several years?"

"No, it is definitely not a pain to lurk for you, the Queen."

"..."

Morgan was silent for a while.

Even though she knew that Ian would never blame herself, she felt a little sad in her heart.

Finally, her lips were no longer as tightly closed as before.

"I'm sorry, Ian, it was my unrealistic fantasies that put you through such a time."

"You regret it, don't you?"

"No." Ian replied with a smile, "Your Majesty, I said, I will never regret being loyal to you."

"Your order is the highest honor to me."

Honor often comes with flattery, but loyalty comes with loneliness.

Morgan turned away and whispered in vague words:

"Are you... resenting me? If that's the case, you can tell me directly now."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty the Queen."
