Chapter 91 Dream, Command Spell and Fiancée (First Order Request!)
Wine and meat adorned the dining table, and rows of candlesticks shone brightly.
The princes and nobles of Erinn gathered in Mykelda's grand banquet hall, and now was the climax of the banquet.
But today's banquet does not allow those brave people to compete in drinking.
Tonight, even the rough warriors will be intoxicated by the elegant fragrance of flowers.
Yes, this is a banquet held to appreciate the beautiful and famous flowers.
Gráinne, the daughter of Cormac mac Airt, the high king of Ireland, is finally getting engaged.
The other party was none other than Fionn mac Cumhaill, son of Cool. A great hero who gained wisdom and the power of healing water due to the fish oil of the wise salmon, and is the leader of the Fiona Knights, who is known as the unparalleled one in the world. He was a man whose strength and reputation were equal to those of King Gao, and no marriage could bring such joy.
Following the old hero Finn were his son the poet Oisin, his grandson the hero Oscar, and the warriors of the Fiona Knights who rode like a thousand warriors.
The Scud Carter Mac Ronan, the Druid Mage Vangus, the "Terror of the Battlefield" Gol Mac Mona, and the Gray Lizard Conan.
And Diarmuid Odina, who has the most powerful honor and is famous as the "Glorious Appearance".
All the heroes who stand alone are here. Each of them loved Finn and swore unwavering loyalty to him. Great heroes revere their leader and dedicate their spears and swords to his command. This is the honor of the knight, the true will of the glorious warrior that the bards always talk about.
He has a longing for the way of chivalry.
Follow this path of knighthood.
The knight firmly believes that one day he will be wrapped in horse leather and die on a glorious battlefield.
Until that night at the banquet of fate, I met a beautiful flower.
"You will gain my love, but the price is that you will bear the Holy Oath (Geis). My beloved, please stop this disgusting wedding and take me to escape...to something further away than the ends of the earth." The other side!”
The girl cried, sincere love burning in her eyes.
It was the fire of purgatory that would burn up his body... The hero had already understood it at that time.
But he couldn't resist.
The heavy burden of the holy oath that tests your reputation or the path of loyalty you believe in - which one is more precious. He asked himself this question several times, but no matter how entangled he was, he still couldn't get the answer.
So the reason driving his actions must be some reason that has nothing to do with glory.
The hero took the princess's hand and turned their backs on the glorious and glorious future together.
This begins a poignant love story that will be sung in Celtic mythology in the future.

Bizarre dreams lingered in his mind and became Kenneth's only pastime.
Sir El-Meloy, who was once known as a child prodigy, now had no luster in his eyes. ɱ
Not only because the magic circuit in his body has been destroyed by the origin bomb, and he has no chance of magic in this life... but also because his beloved fiancée broke all his fingers after he woke up and tortured him. Seize the two remaining Command Seals from Kenneth's hand.
If it was just because of his fiancée's obligation to win the Holy Grail on Kenneth's behalf, Kenneth could still accept it, but——
Kenneth recalled the late night after the first battle, when Soraw looked at Lancer with passionate eyes in the hotel. She had never focused on her fiancé with that dreamy and intoxicated look.
If Sorau was dumbfounded just because he saw a handsome man, then he could forgive him. This is a small mistake that women all make. How can you be her husband if you get so angry over such a trivial matter?
But this is only limited to "if Lancer is just an ordinary handsome man."
The mole of love.
】
Once he thought of this damn skill, Kenneth hated Lancer even more.
It is true that even modern magicians can resist this low-level charm. But, what if there are women who don’t take any protective measures at all and just indulge in this taboo and passionate emotion?
To put it bluntly, that heroic spirit Diarmuid Audi was not that great a person.
The heroic spirits summoned by the Holy Grail not only participate in the Holy Grail War because of the contractual relationship, but they also long for the Holy Grail for some reason.
Precisely because they seek the Holy Grail, they will try their best to help make their master a winner, hoping to share the blessings of the Holy Grail.
Therefore, the first thing the Master has to do to the summoned heroic spirit is to ask him about his wishes, ask him why he longs for the Holy Grail, accept the summons and show up - if the heroic spirit does not ask clearly why he pursues the Holy Grail, the two will The relationship of trust between them will never be established. Because if their wishes conflict with each other, they may suffer a tragic betrayal when they obtain the Holy Grail.
Of course, Kenneth had asked Diarmuid what his wish was very early on. Kenneth asked him: What wish will you make when the two of you get the Holy Grail together.
But the heroic spirit didn't answer.
No, this statement is not correct. Diarmuid did not refuse to answer, but completely denied the significance of the question.
He said - "I don't want any Holy Grail".
I don't need any reward, I just hope to be loyal to the master who summoned me in this life and achieve the honor of being a knight. This is my wish.
Of course, Kayneth could not accept this statement. If there is no reasonable reason, how could the world-famous Heroic Spirit be willing to condescend and become a mere human servant. It's not a social welfare, this joke is not funny at all.
But no matter how much Kayneth wanted to find out the reason, Lancer always insisted on not changing the reason he said before.
"It's enough for me to complete the honor of the knight, and the Holy Grail will be given to you, Master."
Lancer did not change his original intention from beginning to end and resolutely refused to accept the Holy Grail.
- Looking back now, Kayneth may have distrusted the servants who signed a contract with him since then.
How could there be a servant who didn't want the Holy Grail.
Then Lancer's answer was obviously hypocritical, and he hid his true intentions from others.
Kayneth originally thought that it didn't matter even if Lancer didn't say anything. He had the Command Seal in his hand, and as long as he had the absolute power of command, Diarmuid would never betray him. Servants are just tools after all, just instruments. As long as they can perform their functions, it doesn't matter what the tools think. This judgment was Kayneth's thought until yesterday.
But now seeing that Solaw believed in Lancer so much, Kayneth could no longer be as tolerant as before.
If he really followed Solaw - if what he said was true - then it was obvious that his motive was not to want the Holy Grail, but to have other intentions.
That Heroic Spirit must not be trusted, and judging from the legends of his life, wasn't that man originally a traitor who betrayed his loyalty and seduced his lord's wife to flee?
"The Command Seal... cannot be given to you."
He said this a few minutes ago.
And a few minutes later, Kayneth hung his hand that was broken by his fiancée, waiting for her to fetch the surgical tools like a death row inmate, and watched her walk to the end side by side with Lancer.
Was such submission out of love or fear?
Kayneth himself didn't know, and he didn't have time to explore.
Because——
Outside the abandoned factory in the suburbs, which was their second base, his fiancée's terrified scream came.
Geis, which can also be spelled as Geas, Geiss (yes, it is also the one that is self-enforced certificate), is translated as taboo, prohibition or oath. It occupies a very important position in Celtic mythology, but it is also the most secretive part. It is a taboo or fatal weakness of mythological heroes that is usually unknown to the public. Diarmuid and Granny eloped because Granny cast Geis on him.
