When the last ray of sunlight disappeared from the window of the Fairy Tower in the Lake, the thick fog began to cover the entire Fairy Tower in the Lake and the area around it.
On the fourth floor of the tower, on the big soft High Elven bed, Morgiana was leaning softly on Laing's chest. The Lake Goddess Witch's face was full of red, feeling the soreness in the two places, and sighed. "I always thought you would come earlier."
Laing thought to himself, I didn't come here to do this kind of thing.
Of course, he couldn't say this out loud. Laing reached out and stroked Morgiana's back, and spoke to her gently. The two of them had been doing it from afternoon to evening, and it was time for a rest.
"Laing, from now on, you have to spend some time with me every day." Morgiana's wandering eyes took a long time to refocus. She pulled Laing's sleeve and said slowly, like a fish spitting out bubbles. "Let's not talk about what we are going to do, but if there is nothing particularly important, you have to at least spend some time with me every day."
"That won't do." Laing quickly refused. What kind of request was that?
"You don't agree?! How can you not agree?! " Morgiana saw Laing hesitating, and her soft body didn't know where the strength came from. She reached out and grabbed Laing's clothes, gritted her teeth and said, "Is it a lot from what you got from me? Why didn't you say that when you were enjoying it? "
"Your Highness Morgiana, I will spend more time with you, but it's still too much every day. Let's not talk about whether you can take it or not. It's not very good!" Laing quickly said.
The matter between him and Morgiana must not be exposed, or it would be a big scandal.
Therefore, the place where the two had sex was limited to the prayer room on the third floor and the Fairy Tower in the Lake. After almost a year of rest, Morgiana could now barely walk on the ground. Seeing this, the Lake Goddess Witch moved to the Fairy Tower in the Lake. The tower was shrouded in the Goddess's mist, so it was absolutely safe.
And that was where the problem lay. The Fairy Tower in the Lake was obviously one of the miracles of the Fairy of the Lake. Almost every day, knights from all over the kingdom and even expeditionary knights would come to pray, praying for the protection and blessings of the Lady.
And then he was doing this and that with Morgiana in the tower?
What was this?
However, Laing could understand Morgiana's feelings. She had already recuperated for almost a year. Now, she could barely walk normally. Who knew how long it would take for her to recover her Saint-level strength? Morgiana watched as the Kingdom's royal court quarreled. Kasfan had been defeated, yet she could not do anything about it. She must be feeling terrible. She might even hate herself for being careless and incompetent.
Ever since she found out that being intimate with Laing could speed up her recovery, Morgiana could not wait to be with Laing every day.
Of course, the Lake Goddess Witch also knew that speeding up her recovery was sometimes just an excuse … She did not dare to think of any other reasons.
"You don't have anything to do at night, right? Nothing more than accompanying your dark elf maid or your little maid? That female courtier of yours is not around. " Morgiana's voice became softer and softer. "I believe that my appearance and figure … are not inferior to them. Now that I'm in trouble … You should obviously help me more. It's all for the sake of my recovery …"
"…" Laing felt that this rhythm was not right. He sighed and said, "Your Highness Morgiana, how about this? Once or twice a week, we will announce to the public that I will be praying and cleaning in the tower. If there is more time, I will arrange it. How about it?"
"Then … Let's leave it at that for now. Carry me, Laing." Morgiana nodded. The Lake Goddess Witch's face was still flushed. She gestured for Laing to carry her. Laing nodded and carried Morgiana in a princess carry. The two of them went to the dining hall.
After preparing a sumptuous dinner, Laing lit up the silver candlesticks and the magic lamps in the room. The two of them sat facing each other.
"So, the Empire's ransom for Kasvann is 20 thousand crowns?" Morgiana was wearing a jasmine silk dress with a golden flower crown on her head. She had obviously dressed up seriously after waking up. Her fair calves and bare feet were revealed under the dress. Her beautiful face was languid and mesmerizing. She scooped up a spoonful of soup and said naturally, "Karl-franz's ability is another matter. Kasvann has already done his best. If we want to fight the steam tanks, we have to be Grail Knights."
"The Empire is already fully equipped with firearms and cannons. Your Highness, I think we can follow suit." Laing cut the white bread with his fork and knife. He thought for a moment and said, "I think it's necessary."
"Firearms? You want to equip the serfs with firearms? " Morgiana raised her goblet. The fog outside the window was thick, but the bright moonlight penetrated the fog and shone into the room. The Lake Goddess Witch thought for a moment. "The Lady's Commandment doesn't prohibit the use of firearms. However, it's best that the knights don't equip themselves with firearms."
"I know. Knights will naturally use lances and close-range weapons in battle." Laing nodded in agreement.
There was a reason why most knights didn't use long-range weapons in battle. Firstly, firearms didn't allow time to reload in close-range combat. Secondly, it wasn't convenient to equip firearms when they were already equipped with lances and swords.
The result of wanting everything was that you couldn't do anything well.
For the Brittany knights, there was another reason why they didn't use long-range weapons. This was a world of idealism. The more devout one's faith was, the more powerful one would be. This was a world of gods. The more devout one's faith was, the easier it was for them to receive the goddess' protection.
If a knight who had trained for years didn't have confidence in his own skills, then he didn't deserve to be a knight.
On the other hand, firearms weren't as lethal as one would think. The guns of the Empire couldn't penetrate a knight's plate armor. Only a few dwarven long-barrelled guns could penetrate plate armor. Even the Empire's Emperor didn't have many of these guns.
After Laing and Morgiana discussed this issue, Laing moved on to the next question. "Your Highness, are you feeling better these days?"
"A little better." Morgiana nodded. The Lake Goddess Witch could move around freely now, but she would get tired easily.
When she recovered a little, she couldn't wait to move out of the prayer room on the third floor of the castle.
"Actually, what I want to say is that there's no need for us to treat each other this way." Laing thought for a moment before he said tentatively, "I mean, if we transfer our psionic energy to you through handshake, the effect will be the same."
"No … It's not the same, Laing. I know my body very well." As soon as Laing's voice fell, Morgiana's expression changed slightly. She immediately emphasized, "Direct transfer and indirect transfer are different."
"It's actually the same …" Laing tried to explain, but Morgiana's reaction was very intense. "Laing, what's wrong? What are you trying to say? Do you hate me? "
"No, Morgiana. Listen to me." Laing's big hand reached across the table and held Morgiana's hand. "I want to say that it's been a pleasure to be with you, but you seem to have misunderstood my psionic energy."
"Misunderstood?" Morgiana's expression improved after hearing Laing's explanation.
"Your Highness, do you think that if I treat you every day, you'll recover faster?" Laing said with a smile.
"That's not it." Morgiana's face turned red. She only said in a low voice, "What I mean is, the energy in your dark elf maid was given by you, right? On my lower abdomen … that strange … pattern you carved … also contains your energy … "
The more she spoke, the lower Morgiana's voice became. In fact, the strange pattern on her lower abdomen by Laing was a symbol for women that was not easy to talk about. The Lake Goddess was very proud and strong in front of others. Even if it was only the two of them in private, she was still very shy. "I used your psionic energy to cast spells. I think I can be like Olica. Laing, I've been resting for too long."
Laing understood.
To put it bluntly, Morgiana really could not bear to recuperate like a cripple for so long. She really hoped that she could do something, like borrow Laing's energy like Olica, and occasionally recover her spellcasting ability.
Similarly, she also wanted to maintain her relationship with Laing. Laing was not surprised by this. After all, the Lake Goddess was also a woman. When she was with Laing in private, she would feel respected and happy.
He felt that he had to make this matter clear. "Your Highness Morgiana, you're not like Olica. Olica had no choice. After the high elves captured her, they used a secret spell to destroy her soul and spellcasting ability. She can't produce her own mana, so she can only rely on me."
"You, on the other hand, were only affected by the Ancient Tree Sap and had all your mana sucked away by the vampire Count Frey. Your soul and body only need time to slowly recover."
Morgiana obviously did not accept this explanation. She retorted, "That's right. Then I need your mana even more to help me get through this difficult period."
"No, no, no, Morgiana, you don't understand. My mana is not the wind of magic." Leon squeezed Morgianna's hand and said, "My Psionic energy is different from Mana. If I inject you with Psionic energy for a long time, my Psionic energy will erode your Mana. After a long time, you won't be able to cast spells on your own anymore. You'll have to rely on me."
"Is … is it that serious?" As expected, Morgiana was shocked by Laing's words. She asked hesitantly, "Is that really so?"
"Yes," Laing said softly.
He really did not lie about this matter.
In the past year, Morgiana's spiritual runes had matured to almost the same level as Veronica's.
"Alright then." Morgiana sighed softly. She stole a glance at Laing who was still eating and asked casually, "Then … you mean … we won't be like this in the future?"
"That's not necessary. I mean, we'll just keep it like this. If you want to continue pouring your mana into me, we can continue like this." Laing smiled. The Chosen of Gods champion of the Lake Fairy stood up with a smirk on his face after finishing his meal. He walked towards the Lake Goddess who was panicking and grabbed her hand. "Actually, I'm very happy to be with you."
"Sounds like a lie." Morgiana rolled her eyes at him, but her face was filled with joy. She put down her cutlery and said, "I'm done eating. Will you still be here tonight?"
"I'll go back tomorrow morning," Laing said gently. Since he had decided to accompany Morgiana, he might as well accompany her until the end.
This was obviously an answer that the Lake Goddess was satisfied with. Morgiana finally smiled. She did not like being alone anymore. It was too cold and boring to stay in the Lady's Tower alone. "Then we can do something else."
"Something else?"
"Yes, something else." Morgiana struggled to get up. Her walking posture was a little strange. Laing knew that it was the aftereffects of the afternoon's intense activity. He quickly helped her up. Morgiana rolled her eyes at him and let him help her. "Let's go to the third floor."
Outside the window at night, Laing noticed that the griffin cub, Impris, was playing with the unicorn, Sylvann.
In just a few months, Impris had grown a lot. If it was like a puppy before, it was now the size of an adult dog. The unicorn, Sylvann, was Morgiana's mount. It was also injured in the incident with Man Frey. It had been recuperating with Morgiana. Now that it had recovered, it could be used as a means of transportation for the Lake Goddess.
Griffins had to be domesticated from a young age. Otherwise, they would have to go to the Black Forest in the Griffin Duke's territory to catch them. If that happened, the price would be too high. It was better to domesticate them from a young age.
Laing estimated that it would take a long time for the griffin cub to be trained to the point where it could be used on the battlefield.
"I've ordered the Saintess Monastery to test the God Bless cannons you mentioned to me before." Morgiana went up to the third floor with Laing's help.
On the third floor, several large lead cannonballs were placed in the hall. Each of the lead cannonballs had been blessed by the Lake Goddess. These lead cannonballs were no longer solid cannonballs. Instead, they were explosive cannonballs.
With the blessing of the Lake Goddess's prophets, these cannonballs would explode when they were close to the ground. Through the magical explosion and the power of the projectile, they would cause great damage to the enemy.
This was why the Brittany's God Bless Field Catapults were as powerful as the dwarven cannons. After being blessed, the catapults could not only throw stone cannonballs that were three times heavier, but they could also deal additional magical damage.
Now, Laing believed that with the combination of the Lake Goddess's magic and the dwarven technology, the power of the cannons would reach a whole new level.
What he needed now was an experiment.
After checking the cannonballs, Morgiana pointed to a device on the table. This device looked like a giant star map. In the middle of a golden sphere, several rings and orbits were revolving around it. The Lake Goddess held Laing's hand and opened the mysterious device. She then signaled for Laing to inject energy into the device.
"What is this?" Laing did as Morgiana said.
The golden sphere slowly opened, and a figure that Laing was familiar with appeared.
It was the Grail Knight's Captain, the head of the Grail Knights' branch in Colona, Ulles!
This was a video.
As the Grail Knight's Captain in Colona, Ulles reported to Morgiana and the Lake Goddess about the fierce arguments and games that had been going on in the palace for a while.
During this time, a great political tide had swept through the kingdom.
