Lesson 58. Spartoi – 3
Uther Light Camelot was having difficulty escaping from the nightmare.
It is a nightmare where his son, who has turned into an ugly monster, tears off his collar and swallows him in one bite.
Behind them, laughing out loud, are the evil dragon and the human who commands the dragon.
The ancestors said that dragons are evil beasts that block the natural unification of the universe and tear it apart, and indeed, their words were not wrong.
The problem is that his own son has already been completely fooled by the magic of those evil men and has committed an unfilial act without even recognizing his own father.
Uther Light Camelot thought to himself as he felt the excruciating pain of being chewed and torn apart by his son’s sharp, jagged fangs.
I can’t just sit back and hand over everything in the country to those evil dragons!
It was then that the words my ancestors left behind came to mind.
‘This dynasty inherits the dragon’s bloodline in order to destroy the dragon and unite the dimensions once again. When the time comes, gather all the soldiers who inherit the blood of the dirty warriors and inherit my final legacy. The legacy will naturally open its eyes when my arrangements are properly made – an artificial dragon created by combining the wisdom of dragons and humans in order to surpass dragons.’
The next moment, Yuder opened his eyes wide and sat up.
The pain left by the teeth of the traitor who had just bitten my stomach and pulled out my internal organs was still vivid, but now was not the time to be suffering from a renewed sense of betrayal towards my son.
“Yes, the last legacy… …! The ancestors clearly said they had made other arrangements!”
The royal family of Camelot has prospered by following the words of their ancestors that have been passed down through generations.
When his son, Aslight Camelot, whose dragon’s blood was particularly thick, was acknowledged as the owner of the Holy Sword, didn’t he rejoice, thinking that the time when all of the ancestors’ words would truly come true was near?
But now, the son has failed to accept his ancestors, has awakened to his feminine instincts, and has even corrupted the holy sword, turning it into a demonic sword that boosts the dragon’s energy.
Now, with the support of evil dragons, I dare to suppress my father and am on the verge of stripping him of all his powers as king!
‘If things continue like this, everything will really fall apart. But if it’s his last legacy, if it’s the power of the artificial dragon, it wouldn’t be impossible for me to regain my authority!’
Uder Light Camelot washed up and left the bedroom, adorning himself with full plate armor for the first time in a long time.
And he gathered together all the soldiers who, according to the words of his ancestors, carried the blood of dirty warriors – the loyal guardian knights who only obeyed the orders of himself and his son, the royal family.
“Why did His Majesty the King, who only stays in the palace, call us here?”
“We must train and build up our strength in preparation for the day when the prince, or rather the princess, comes.”
The knights who had spent nearly ten years on the battlefield with Asha, and who had been moved by loyalty to Asha rather than to the king, frowned at Uder’s sudden summons.
Yuder, who was a coward by nature and had hardly ever been on a battlefield, was not very close to them from the beginning, and they, who were moved by the almost brainwashing teachings that they had to protect the royal family, had long since come to serve Princess Asha, who protected the country with her natural bravery and great fighting ability, as their true master.
“How can a cheeky servant who only follows orders be dissatisfied with his master!”
It was rather funny to see Yuder staggering around in ill-fitting armor and getting angry.
However, since it was almost instinctive for them not to be able to go against the royal family, they simply rolled their eyes in discontent at Yuder’s violent words and actions.
On the other hand, although he was angry at them, Yuder was confident that he would be crushed like a dead frog in a second if they took off their rank insignia and attacked him. Instead of provoking them further, he coughed loudly and argued about the reason he had called them.
“There is a word left by our great ancestors of the royal house of Camelot. When the nation is in danger, the true legacy he left behind will awaken, and I, the true ruler, the King of Camelot, will take it up and fight against the wicked foreign powers.”
“Are you talking about evil foreign powers?”
“Yes, the lizard that trampled the palace with its feet and forced me to speak to you in a humiliating manner!”
At the mention of lizard, the eyes of some of the knights flashed again.
Strangely enough, the knights were full of life, and it was a change they didn’t even notice.
There was no way the king, who was inferior to a single trained knight in terms of strength, would notice that, and he continued to criticize each knight individually.
“Since I suffered such humiliation because of your incompetence, shouldn’t I obtain the inheritance to protect Camelot so that such a thing never happens again?”
“Humiliation… … Wasn’t that just a contract of support to protect Princess Asha, the next heir to the throne?”
“The support from the Melodia dimension is truly enormous. With all sorts of dimensional goods beginning to circulate, not only has the economy improved, but there is also an abundance of training resources for knights and soldiers, and I understand that national strength is growing day by day.”
While those who read the article calmly talked about the changes brought about by the support of the Melodia family, Yuder simply snorted.
Because the support was not meant to fill his own stomach, but to enrich the people and soldiers who did not need to be taken care of.
“Look, you guys who are supposed to protect the royal family are being fooled by that wicked lizard’s tricks! Whose kingdom is this, that lizard’s? No, this is the kingdom of Uther Light Camelot!”
“This is the kingdom of Lady Asha Light Camelot, Your Majesty.”
“Since the actual royal power has been transferred, shouldn’t I address you as Your Majesty rather than Your Majesty?”
“Hey, hey… … How dare you!”
However, seeing the knights’ behavior of not hesitating to mock the one who once served them as their lord, Uder really hesitated to swing his sword.
But the moment he made eye contact with a few knights whose eyes were gleaming with an ominous murderous intent, he realized that this was the very basis for the rebellion they had been hoping for, and a chill ran down his spine, causing his body to freeze.
‘Hey, these guys… … They really don’t think of me as their master!’
In reality, it had been like this for years before Asha took over the military, and after the head of Melodia visited, it had gotten to the point where it was no longer a problem to show that kind of attitude on the surface.
Of course, it must have been because he was aware of that kind of atmosphere that Yuder had repeated nightmares like today several times.
Uder bit his lip, suppressed his anger, and declared to the knights who were glaring at him with their eyes narrowed like lizards.
“It’s time to go on a campaign! The legacy our ancestors have arranged for us has now been revealed, and you must use your own strength to reap it!”
“If it benefits Princess Asha, we will do it even if it means giving up our lives.”
“I will definitely get it and show it to you.”
The knights began to move according to his will, even though they dared to contradict the king’s every word.
Another funny thing was that the vehicle he was using was a combat vehicle that he had recently received as a gift from the Melodia family.
“This is it.”
After running like that for several hours, Yuder got out of the car with his eyes shining as he reached a ruin in the forest where no one visited.
He had to get on and off the platform with the help of the knights because he was wearing full plate armor and couldn’t do it on his own, but once he set foot on the ground, his confidence grew.
This is definitely the place.
The place where the last legacy our ancestors spoke of lies dormant!
He could recall it vividly, as if his ancestors had personally entered this place into his mind.
“It’s amazing. I didn’t know about this terrain before, but now it feels so vivid that I can almost touch it. I guess it’s because my ancestors’ blood flows through me.”
If his qualities were sufficient, he could have held the holy sword himself and accepted the ancestors’ grace.
Yuder, who had already been completely ruined by the brainwashing that had been passed down through the royal family for many years, felt no discomfort at suddenly remembering the existence of his legacy or suddenly realizing its location.
Meanwhile, the knights, who were worried about whether they should kill the king who was determined to oppose the Melodia family that supported Asha, exchanged glances and were perplexed when they felt something that stimulated their instincts in the ruins they had arrived at.
“This is… … it looks real.”
“Look at this, it’s really not normal. Is this really a royal legacy? If the prince, or rather the princess, isn’t here, I don’t think we can win… … .”
“Your Majesty the King is here. But he is our lord, and even though he cannot fight alongside the princess… … .”

“This is it!”
While the knights were discussing their opinions, the king, who had been making his way through the ruins alone, surprisingly stopped in front of a giant tree that was thousands of years old and stabbed the tree’s gnarled spot with his drawn longsword.
He was a nobleman who could not even handle magic in his lifetime.
A strange golden magic circle emerged from the area where the sword had stabbed him, and the hole gradually widened, eventually creating a large passageway large enough for several people to fit through.
“What, what is this?!”
“Is it a dungeon?”
“Let’s go in. You have to guard me tightly!”
The king swung his long sword twice in the air as if he was satisfied, and then took the lead with blue light streaming from his eyes.
His original magical power was less than 1 Erecto by the standards of the Banyuwon, but now it was over 4 Erectos, a level that even the Camelot Guardian Knights could not dare to take lightly.
However, the loyal guardian knights knew that the king was not in a good situation at the moment.
‘This is strange.’
‘Are you perhaps lacking magical power and using up your innate vitality? The King is not capable of handling this much magical power. It is a temporary symptom of a runaway. The aftereffects will be terrible!’
‘But what are we going to do about it? Unless he really tries to kill us, we won’t dare touch his body.’
‘It’s dangerous. It’s really dangerous, if I don’t at least contact the princess… … .’
But it was already a situation where there was no way out.
The guardian knights, terrified at the sight of the king’s shadow disappearing into the hole, gritted their teeth and followed him.
The facilities inside were also full of surprising things.
Even on the battlefield with Asha, the King resolved all the suspicious trap devices by stabbing them with his sword.
While the knights joined forces to fight against the monsters that occasionally appeared――which were truly the legacy of the dragon, and which had inherited the characteristics of lizards, the king, seemingly unaware of their battle, leisurely went deep inside alone.
“This is crazy, that guy has clearly gone completely crazy!”
“The level of the monsters is getting higher and higher, and the metal mixed in their bodies… … This. This is, really dangerous.”
After advancing for several hours, when the knights were out of breath due to their reduced ability to fight―― the king finally reached the depths of the ruins and discovered what he was looking for.
-Kurrrrrr… … .
The machine dragon, whose seal was already half-open and whose eyes were open, was glaring at them.
“This is it.”
Uther muttered, satisfied.
In just a little while, he would have burst out of the magical chains that had bound him, but thanks to his arrival in time, he would be able to take a few measures to control it as he wished!
――If Yuder is the rightful successor to the dragon, and has awakened the dragon’s blood, and suppressed it again with the power of his ancestors and the holy sword, and achieved evolution in the direction he intended, that is.
-Kwaaaa …
The moment Uther’s magical power made contact with the chains, the machine let out a loud noise filled with destructive power, destroying the interior of the ruins.
The magical power of Yuder, who inherited the blood of his ancestors, only destroyed the already crumbling chains, but failed to restrain the bastard and make him follow him again.
In other words, it means that we have only released dangerous monsters into the wild.
-Kururururururu!
As the machine dragon regained its freedom after only a few seconds of being touched by Yuder’s magic, the ruins could not support it and collapsed.
The knights were terrified, but they quickly gathered their lord and left the ruins.
“Oh my god, I knew this would happen to me!”
“But His Majesty the King did not listen to me… … !”
“Is there no way to stop it? It was awakened by Your Majesty’s magic, so how can it be awakened by Your Majesty’s magic again… ?”
“No, he has already passed out. He has no magical power left in his body, so he may never wake up… … .”
“Eww! I can’t stop!”
Even as they were running aggressively to escape the ruins, the ruins collapsed with a loud clanking noise.
When I somehow managed to escape with my life, the machine dragon had already escaped from the ruins and was roaring in celebration of regaining its freedom――.
“They are all dead now.”
“Since the country was not going the way he wanted, he decided to bury the country.”
The knight who had been supporting the king threw him to the ground with a slurp.
Immediately afterwards, most of the knights looked at him in surprise.
“You, how could you… …?!”
“No, how is this?”
The Guardian Knights cannot harm the King, even indirectly.
They have been taught and have been subjected to the strictures engraved on their bodies to be absolutely obedient to those who are descended from the great royal family of Camelot, and especially to those who wear the crown of king.
I don’t know how that was possible, but it was like a contract they couldn’t dare break even if they wanted to.
But to throw the king away… … .
“No, I got it.”
The machine dragon, having finished roaring once, began to glare at the Guardian Knights.
One of the knights clenched his fists and smiled.
“He is coming.”
“ah……!”
“Our true lord!”
“So, is it okay to shake off the fake?”
-Kuaaaaaaaah!
Immediately afterwards, the machine dragon lifted its heavy tail and struck them down, perhaps because it was not pleased with the way they were talking in front of it.
However, the knights, who had been strengthened twice, if not three times more than when they left the ruins, easily escaped the spot, and in the end, only Yuder, who had remained there, fell victim to the tail and turned into a flattened rat cannon.
-Kurrrrrrrrrrr!
Surprisingly, there was still something left in that body that had all its magic drained out of it. The moment its blood and flesh got caught on the machine dragon’s tail, geometric patterns made of lines ran across the machine dragon’s entire body, and its magic also amplified!
“Damn, the King was a sacrifice from the beginning?”
“We have no choice since it has come to this. And right now, we have――”
“Eww! What the heck is going on!”
There was a woman who landed before the Guardian Knights with a feminine scream that they were not used to. It was, of course, Asha Light Camelot, the rightful mistress of Camelot.
“What is that monster! Why are you here!”
“Welcome, Princess.”
“No, you bastard.”
Watching the machine dragon, which had absorbed some kind of power from the king, roar once again and spread its wings made of machines and wires.
As they all drew their swords and lined up behind Asha, one of the knights declared.
“Asha is the new king.”
“Huh? Your Majesty? … … No way, that Rat Poison.”
-Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Tears welled up in Asha’s eyes as she faced the unbelievable reality, and the machine dragon cried out as if mocking her.
“Be quiet!”
-Ouch!
Immediately afterwards, a giant robot fell from the sky and struck the guy in the head with its fist!
