31 Chapter 31: Triumph

The sun was sinking slowly, and the nearly dusk sunlight coated the streets of Camelot with a golden color.

People cheered and threw flowers to welcome the king's triumph.

The birth of King Arthur was already filled with extraordinary legend. His speeches were more inspiring every time.

Today, at the king-making ceremony, the Saxon army of 10,000 perfectly performed the villain's role in the epic, bringing the original ceremony to an end. But their king used the power of thunder to wipe out the invading enemies, and while winning a great victory, he also made today, a day remembered by all the citizens of Camelot, even more legendary.

Defeated the Saxons.

For the subjects of Camelot, it was far from a simple victory.

King Arthur proved his identity and abilities as the chosen king.

Camelot proved that defeat was not an option against the Saxons.

Yes, the Saxons are not scary, they were defeated by us and we have King Arthur!

As for their King Arthur, he was riding stiffly on his horse, waving to people while still tensing his body. It makes people wonder if he will kill the war horse underneath him. That was the most docile and robust war horse, and Camelot was unable to find another one for Arthur to cause trouble to.

Arthur also kept telling himself in his heart that he couldn't be nervous, he couldn't be nervous, at least he couldn't make a fool of himself in front of so many civilians, otherwise everything he had done before would be in vain.

Now he wants to portray himself as brightly as possible, so that he can quickly calm the hearts of the people.

"My king, please relax a little, otherwise even I won't be able to calm the horse down." Aggravain, who was riding the horse in front of him, suggested with a headache.

Naturally, he was very satisfied with his king, and this has never changed.

But now it seems that it would be better if Arthur could practice more equestrian skills.

"Even if you say so..." Arthur couldn't help but worry, "It's very difficult to control yourself not to fall while waving."

"Perhaps you can try holding it with both hands, that will make you feel better. Compared with other war horses, this one of yours is quite docile. As long as you don't stimulate it, it is easy to control."

"It's rare that I personally lead the troops to victory today. I don't know if I will have a chance next time. If I don't show a friendly image at this time, how can I make people trust me?" Arthur said this, stubbornly responding to the enthusiastic onlookers.

Well, he feels like a monkey in the zoo.

No, at least the monkeys in the zoo can have a temper, but not him. He is more like a new monkey in a circus than a zoo. He has not yet been trained and is driven to the stage by the trainer with a whip, trying hard and awkwardly to please the audience.

And this is still a barely achieved effect.

If Aggravain hadn't taken the initiative to lead his horse before entering the city, Arthur might have fallen into an even more embarrassing situation.

"I'm embarrassing you, Aggravain. You should be like Gawain and others, riding a war horse, leading the soldiers, enjoying the glory and cheers, but now you can only lead my horse here. I will make it up to you later. What do you want?" Arthur asked tentatively.

In fact, he knew that Aggravain didn't care about honor and offered to lead the horse, so he must have doubts.

"You know I don't care about that. If you want compensation...King Arthur, can you tell me what you are going to do with those prisoners?"

"What's your opinion?" Arthur smiled.

Now, he is in the observation stage for every knight.

The main reason is that there are really few available people, and Camelot lacks talents.

Those nobles must not be reused, no matter what their attitude is, it is the same.

Those manipulated by Morgan lost their rationality and self and became a puppet. Those who were attracted by Arthur all had small thoughts and only helped temporarily for the sake of profit. As for the hostile nobles, let alone that.

The only ones that can be used at this stage are the knights.

But, how to say...

Knights are also nobles, but they advocate chivalry more. The knights in this era not only cultivate their martial arts, but also need to hone their abilities in all aspects, that is, their comprehensiveness.

Almost all knights can be said to be experts in both civil and military arts (except Gawain the Gorilla).

This is also what makes Arthur quite regretful.

Because human energy has its limits, compared with the comprehensive development of many aspects, in the end, you will be somewhat knowledgeable in that aspect, and you will be able to do everything, but you will not be perfect at all. If you start from the beginning with your talents and talents, and focus on developing and learning in a certain aspect, the abilities you have now will only be higher.

Just like Gawain, in terms of knowledge, a little bit of military strategy is enough. For other things, as long as he can read and write, then he can focus on improving his military force and becoming an unparalleled general. Wouldn't it be good?

As for Aggravain, it seems that his talent in martial arts can only be called excellent, but his overall outlook is average. But its potential is far more than that. Regardless of government affairs, execution ability or character, it is extremely consistent with the standards of assassins, spies and other positions.

Therefore, Arthur is gradually training him to become Camelot's first special attack leader.

"I think they should all be killed. It can not only deter the Saxons and surrounding tribes, but also serve as a warning to people, letting everyone know that the king has both a gentle side and an iron-blooded side. In this way, those nobles and those with ambitions can be more restrained," Aggravain said coldly.

"It's really cruel, Lord Aggravain. This is not the opinion of a knight."

"I am not obsessed with being a knight. As long as it can make Camelot better, I can adapt to any identity." Aggravain didn't care and said, "Besides, the work you gave me this month is all against the spirit of chivalry."

"Is this an expression of dissatisfaction with me?"

"Don't dare."

"Don't be nervous, Mr. Aggravain. It's hard to weigh the pros and cons of your suggestion, but overall it's good. At least it can solve Camelot's problem in a short time and solve the urgent need. But it's too cruel and more than that, it's a waste." Arthur shook his head.

If Aggravain's advice was adopted, why would he need to waste time here and establish a glorious image?

"Your idea is...to pardon the Saxons and make them citizens or soldiers? This will indeed win you a good reputation and show your kindness." Aggravain stopped talking.

"Here, if you have any opinions, you can raise them. I'm not a petty person, at least not like Morgan."

Speaking of this, Arthur suddenly realized that he was a little carried away and quickly looked around. I was relieved when I didn't see the figure of a certain fool.
