Chapter 743 - Pendragon III
Pendragon learned that the villagers were actually from the world called Camelot and has always despised magic. They did not despise magic because of the power it can do but those that abuse it in order to hurt other people.
Pendragon himself knew that magic is not evil but only those that misuse it. The people in the village were actually knights of a kingdom in Camelot called Uther. They served the king with a burning passion until his wicked stepsister turned to dark sorcery to take over the kingdom.
They escaped accidentally using a portal to Nebulon that has been hidden by the royal family as a way to escape their world if it ever gets taken over by the dark ones. The dark ones mentioned in the tales of Camelot is none other than the dark gods as they have visited that world before but failed in conquering it.
Pendragon decided to go to Camelot and aid the family that he has gained in the main world. He used the exact same portal or rather spatial fracture that the Camelot residents used to escape from that world.
Pendaron managed to reunite with the villagers that he has grown to love but they said that he was too weak with just Caliburn. He needed a sword that he can use for the battle against Morgan Le Fay. A sword so sturdy that it will never break even with the application of magic.
It is then he met Infernum when he took the journey to find the mysterious Lady of the Lake. A being that is said to inhabit a lake in a special place that no one can easily gain entrance to. It is said that she is also an enchantress, but others call her a fallen goddess.
Fallen goddess or not, Pendragon heeded the advice that is given to him as ordinary swords do not satisfy his sword style. He needed something that can fit him perfectly and something that will never break as all the ordinary swords always break when he wields them with his mastery.
It is when Pendragon was looking for the Lady of the Lake when he encountered Infernum with Siefried leading them. It seems that they were able to enter Camelot using another spatial fracture and is also in search for a special sword that never breaks.
When Infernum knew what Pendragon\'s aim they had as encountered each other often times, they told him to not go after the weapon that they are also aiming for. Infernum did not threaten Pendragon, but they did tell him that he would have no chance against them if a fight were to ensue.
Pendragon did not bother debating with them as the Lady of the Lake will only choose someone worthy to take the sword that never breaks. When Infernum noticed how determined Pendragon was in finding the sword, some of the higher officials of the guild could not take it anymore and vowed to kill him.
In the end, they were the ones who were slaughtered as one swing of Caliburn destroyed 80% of the 300 people strong army of Infernum. The remaining 20% are none other than the officials that were a bit tanky but still got immense damage.
"If you value your experience points then I must warn you to go scurry along because I need that sword." Pendragon stated as he stored the blade handle back to the sheath as the condensed heat blade has dissipated.
In the end, Infernum got beaten to a pulp while on Live and their reputation took a hit. Pendragon on the other hand became immensely famous as the person who took down a guild on his own. Although a bit exaggerated, it is not really that wrong to say that he took down 300 people from a high-ranking guild by himself.
The Lady of the Lake witnessed the fight that happened on the shores of her lake. She admired the tenacity and heart that Pendragon exhibited but she still needed to challenge him. The Lady of the Lake or the Land Deity called Nimueh battled the player called Pendragon.
In the end, Pendragon got defeated but he exhibited what it takes to be able to wield one of the best swords in Pandemonium. The sword with the name of Excalibur. The sword that can never be broken no matter what hits it. Even a demigod blacksmith will not be able to dent the sword as it is something forged by the gods themselves.
Nimueh actually became intrigued by Pendragon that he also has one of the best swords which is the Sword of Extreme Heat Caliburn as his weapon. She became so intrigued that she decided to become the ego of the sword, Excalibur, in order to follow Pendragon on his journey but her real body is still present in the hidden lake.
It is not because she is bored that she joined Pendragon on his adventures and helping him driving away the evil enchantress called Morgan Le Fay.

"You should use more of my power Pendragon. You would be able to finish them off if you do." Nimueh telepathically stated as she saw that Caliburn\'s strike is not enough to finish off the Twin Blades.
"I am not going to use your power just yet and Caliburn\'s strike is not that powerful yet as I used it earlier in full power. It will take time before I am able to do a powerful strike once again. But simple swordplay would be enough for the both of them." Pendragon stated as the Twin Blades actually managed to survive the attack from Caliburn.
The Twin Blades looked ragged and about to get killed but they did not retreat. As they were about to attack another time and use Sword Aura. An incoming spell is hurled towards Merlin that is protecting the flag. It seems that a spell caster is hiding some place near them.
Another group has arrived and attacked everyone in the area. It is then a notification appeared that did not please Pendragon or Merlin.
