Chapter 1608 - 1110: I Just Wanted to See You (2)

After pondering for a moment, Reiger finally spoke.

"I can help you resurrect them."

Upon hearing this, Morgan didn’t react too intensely.

"The conditions?" Morgan gazed deeply at Reiger and said indifferently, "You barged into Camelot and confronted me at my throne. Surely, you didn’t just want to meet me, right?"

"Correct." Reiger didn’t hide anything, meeting Morgan’s gaze, and said frankly, "I need your help to save someone."

"Who?" Morgan squinted and said, "To make you specifically come to me, it shouldn’t be just anyone, right?"

"That depends on how you see it." Reiger shrugged and said, "Anyway, I need you to come with me."

Morgan said nothing, only continued to stare at Reiger, as if trying to see through something.

Reiger did not avoid Morgan’s sharp gaze and looked straight back at her.

For a while, the two seemed to be engaged in a silent confrontation.

After a long while, Morgan shook her head.

"I will not leave the throne."

That amounted to a refusal.

"But you left the throne last time."

Reiger calmly pointed this out.

He was referring to when Morgan personally brought him back to Camelot when he was in Salisbury.

At that time, Morgan had left the throne and appeared in Salisbury.

"That was an exception." Morgan said coldly, "And this time, I won’t make such an exception."

"Besides, you don’t just want me to leave this throne, do you?"

Reiger fell silent.

He indeed wanted more than just Morgan to leave the throne; he wanted her to leave the Fairy Country of Britain, leave this singularity, and go with him to another world.

But it’s clear that Morgan would never agree to such a thing.

Her obsession with this Britain was evident to all.

She might not save the fairies or grant them salvation, but she would save Britain again and again, ensuring its eternal existence.

To that end, she wouldn’t hesitate to abandon her mission as a Paradise Fairy, leaving the fairies who needed salvation and insisting on ruling the whole of Britain and becoming its king.

Given such circumstances, it was impossible for her to leave this Fairy Country Britain.

"I don’t need you to leave forever." Reiger said, frowning, "Just for a while. Isn’t that possible?"

"No." Morgan replied in an indisputable tone, "Surely you have noticed that the current Britain is not the same as before."

Reiger immediately recalled the pervasive curse aura and the rapidly increasing number of Mors.

Especially the massive chasm outside Camelot, from which the curse aura emanated so intensely that it made him feel alarmed.

That concentration of the curse reminded Reiger of the time in Fairy Calendar Year 400 when he and Ash ventured into the depths of the Great Chasm and encountered something there.

The curse that appeared then was not much different from the level of curse emanating from the Great Chasm now.

"A great ’catastrophe’ is about to descend. It’s impossible for me to leave Britain and this throne now."

"If I leave, Britain will be destroyed."

"So, even you cannot make me leave here at this time."

Morgan’s emotionless voice made Reiger involuntarily sigh.

"Even if I propose a ’condition,’ it’s still not feasible?"

Reiger said to Morgan.

He was referring to the ’stake’ that Morgan had planted within him.

It was a deeply rooted contract between the two.

One of the functions of the ’stake’ was to allow both parties to propose ’conditions’ to each other, and when one fulfills them, they receive corresponding power as a reward.

Reiger’s holy spear was obtained from Morgan by fulfilling one such ’condition.’

This time, Reiger’s intention was clear: if Morgan agreed, that would be best, but if not, he would propose a ’condition.’

Last time, Morgan had proposed a ’condition’ to him, and now it was his turn.

Unfortunately...

"Even if you propose a ’condition,’ I can still choose not to fulfill it."

Morgan explained calmly.

"Don’t forget that I once told you, when the power exchanged by the paying party is far more precious than the ’condition’ itself, only then does this ’condition’ possess a certain degree of coerciveness."

When the party proposing the ’condition’ decides on the power to be exchanged for the other party, if the power about to be exchanged is too strong and precious, while the ’condition’ required to be achieved by the other party is too simple, then this ’condition’ will possess extremely high coerciveness.

Last time, Reiger was in such a state.

At that time, the ’condition’ Morgan proposed to him was not to leave Camelot before the wedding ended.

This ’condition’ wasn’t difficult to fulfill, nor did it cause any loss to Reiger.

But the power Morgan decided to exchange with Reiger was a grand magic that could recreate the power of the star tower bound to the planet’s surface.

Such a precious and powerful force, merely to exchange for Reiger staying in Camelot until the wedding ended, such unequal major compensation endowed Morgan’s ’condition’ with great coerciveness, to the extent that Reiger could only obediently stay until the wedding with Morgan was over, then he could leave Camelot.

However, this time, the ’condition’ Reiger proposed to Morgan, whatever power is used as compensation, is not enough.

Because, Morgan knew very well, once she leaves the throne, leaves Britannia, Britannia would be destroyed.

This is something she absolutely cannot accept.

Considering Morgan’s obsession and attachment to Britannia, I’m afraid no power is sufficient to serve as compensation for it.

In view of this, even if Reiger offers all his spells, magic, and knowledge as a reward to Morgan, they are not precious enough compared to her beloved Britannia.

If the compensation does not far exceed the preciousness required by the ’condition’, the result naturally contains no coerciveness.

Since it lacks coerciveness, then Morgan can choose not to do it.

"It has indeed turned out this way..."

Reiger wasn’t surprised by this; he merely murmured softly.

"You knew it would be like this, didn’t you?" Morgan cast a disdainful glance towards Reiger, saying: "If that’s the case, why propose it?"

"Just wanted to give it a try." Reiger calmly replied: "Although it’s unrealistic, what if?"

"What if I am more important to you than Britannia?"

"It seems not to be the case."

At this, Morgan didn’t know what to say.

She really didn’t expect Reiger would say such words.

"...Are you serious?"

This time, it was Morgan’s turn to furrow her brow.

"Of course not." Reiger suddenly laughed, saying: "Maybe, I really just wanted to see you?"

A touch of emotion appeared in Morgan’s eyes.

Only now, Reiger had already turned his back.

"Leaving now?"

Morgan reacted, staring tightly at Reiger’s back.

She wanted to make a move.

Since Reiger had returned on his own, she naturally had no reason to let him go.

Keeping him by her side was something Morgan always wanted to do.

After all, he was her chosen husband.

But as Morgan’s heart birthed this thought, Reiger seemed to sense it in advance and spoke.

"Don’t rush, we have plenty of time together in the future."

Reiger glanced at Morgan, thus spoke.

"Trust me, there’s nothing in this Britannia worth your protection, nor worthy of your continued attachment."

"The destruction of Britannia is inevitable, even you can’t stop it."

"I don’t mind waiting till then, and then take you away."

Upon hearing this, Morgan’s eyes turned completely cold, even showing anger.

"You wish to destroy my Britannia?"

Facing Morgan’s questioning, Reiger did not respond, he just slowly disappeared from the spot.

Watching the place where Reiger vanished, Morgan’s eyes flickered non-stop.

"With me here, no one can destroy Britannia."

"Not even you..."

After the dream-like murmur, Morgan’s eyes became resolutely determined.
