I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 306

Chapter 306 – Gods and Wizards
The sudden turn of events left the many witnesses present stunned. Asides from the core royals, even the intelligence operatives of other countries shuddered at the implications of the Celt’s words.

It was surprising that someone stopped the Celtic god of war, and from their methods, they seemed like they had gained supernatural powers.

Present-day Earth was a global village. The development of science had advanced the transmission of information, as a result, the whole world was already aware of what was happening in Buckingham Palace. Some people were even brave enough to fly drones and live-stream the events from safe vantage points. Countless eyes were already watching the events of Buckingham Palace.

This was also the reason why the British royal family members chose to bravely face; forward, because they could not shame themselves when the rest of the world was watching.

No one knew who initially gave out the information that the man invading Buckingham Palace was a Celtic god of war, but in an instant, Celtic mythology became a hot topic on Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, and other sites. Many celebrities and informed people also began streaming and talking about Celtic mythology. In the northern part of the British Isles, countries such as Wales were having an emergency meeting on whether they should take advantage of the current situation to become independent from the United Kingdom.

“Celtic mythology is a bloody, tyrannical, and lustful myth!”

“They are war-loving people who lived a life of waging wars.”

“The battles between the Tuatha De Danann and the Fomorians marked the beginning of Celtic mythology. It is very similar to the war between the Olympian gods and the Titans, or the battle between the Norse gods and the giants. I wonder if there is a specific connection between these myths.”

“Aren’t King Arthur and Merlin also part of Celtic mythology!”

“In fact, the existence of druids, witches, and wizards that we all know today are all from Celtic mythology.”

“Cu Chulainn! Scathach! I will go find Scathach to learn the spear!”

“Long live the king!”

“……”

Christianity was a well-known religion that hardly needed any specific introduction, but Celtic mythology was much more niche, especially compared to Greek and Norse mythology. With the emergence of the Celtic god of war, a lot of scholars began to try to rapidly popularize it.

Although there were some gamers that seemed to be enthusiastic about Celtic mythology, they were ultimately following a niche of the niche. In games, the story of Celtic mythology was very pleasant mythology, but after learning the truth about it, they felt a heavy heart.

The gods and people of this mythology were simply brutal and tyrannical. They loved war and other barbaric acts. In most accounts, there was also a lot of sex between men and women. It could be said that in addition to those equally tyrannical warlike people, the Celtic gods were definitely not the kind of gods you would want to encounter.

Even the great heroes such as Cu Chulainn, who was recorded in mythology, were simply men who killed indiscriminately.

Back in Buckingham palace, countless petals floated in the air as the Celtic god had been tied up by thick vines.

These vines glowed with brilliant colors. Even ordinary people could tell that these were not ordinary plants, but crafts woven from magic. Princess Charlotte, who was in the hands of the god of war, was no longer crying. The little girl looked in awe at the petals falling from the sky and gave childish praise, “It’s beautiful!”

“Beautiful? Little girl, these flowers are not only beautiful, but they are murderous weapons as well!”

Connacht Rhys heard the princess’ childish words and laughed out loud. Although the Celtic people were murderous, they could be called fearless and brave.

“You wizards left in this world by Merlin, since you dare stop me, don’t tell me you don’t dare come out to meet your god!”

The god of war bellowed. The walls of Buckingham Palace were shaken and cracked under the eyes of the whole world. Illusory doorways appeared around Connacht Rhys, and people who appear to be wizards and witches stepped out from it.

“Wizard?”

Even the royal family of Britain subconsciously shouted. Some scholars who saw the live video began to take notes with their pens, and some art students began to copy the strange symbols on the doorways that had just appeared.

These were things that researchers, historians, and occultists would go crazy for.

The wizards and witches that appeared were dressed modernly. They wore long body trench coats and held onto oak wands. Anyone with knowledge of Celtic mythology knew that oaks were the symbol of druids.

From Connacht Rhys’ words, anyone could guess their identity. They were wizards and also druids that originated from the great wizard of Arthurian Legends, Merlin.

Although Merlin was the world’s most well-known wizard, professionals were aware that he was actually a druid, while the wizard was a variant name that came after the disappearance of Celtic mythology.

Wizards, sorcerers, witches, etc. that were being hunted by Christianity in the Middle Ages were actually from Celtic mythology, and were originally sourced from the druids!

Now, there seemed to be enmity between the Celtic gods and Christianity. It seems that the mysteries of history were being unwoven. Why did the church do so many dark things? Maybe they were truly attacking the people who had mastered alchemy and spells.

This was a chance of a lifetime for scholars of history to learn about the lost history.

Only the Catholic upper clergy felt puzzled as they had been able to access secret records of the Church. From those records, they learned that those witches and wizards were false, but in the next moment, the reality seemed to be otherwise. Why didn’t the church learn of their existence? With the spells that these wizards and witches grasped, what did the church use to fight them?

But now that Christ had come to Earth and the gods have appeared, the Catholic upper clergy could only eat their words and try to shift the blame on the records of their predecessors. Perhaps they did not want their successors to know of the existence of supernatural powers.

The government officials of various countries began pressuring the Vatican to release those church texts because the church possessed many secrets that might be related to the present situation. Fortunately, Christ’s descent had temporarily decreased the pressure on the Vatican.

Faced with more than a dozen wizards, the Celtic god was not afraid and snickered, “Merlin that old thing is still imprisoned in Avalon, but I never expected him to have such a hand and passed down the heritage of druids. Following the changes happening to the world, your powers must have also been restored to their might.”

“However, the source of your power is the druids who sacrifice to the gods. Your powers all come from the Tuatha De Danann. How dare you make a move against the gods that you should be sacrificing to?!”

Connacht Rhys shouted in anger, releasing a shockwave filled with killing intent. The petals and vines under his feet were torn apart and blown away by his battle spirit. The ground beneath the god cracked and sunk. The wizards who had gathered around him were also blown back by the god’s overwhelming aura.

As the god of war said, the source of the power of these wizards came from the Celtic gods!

When one of the wizards pulled out a cross, the god of war temporarily stopped his killing intent.

“Merlin, that old thing, once betrayed the Tuatha De Dannan with Pendragon. Don’t tell me he plans to repeat that!”
