King Uther Pendragon promised to give his newborn child, Arthur, to Merlin, the wizard. Uther sought Merlin's guidance after the child's birth, as he wanted to ensure Arthur's safety from enemies who might threaten him. Merlin agreed to take the child and raise him in secrecy, away from the dangers of the kingdom. This promise set the stage for Arthur's eventual rise to become a legendary king.

Why did Merlin take King Arthur from king uther?

Arthur was the son of Uther and Ygraine - but Ygraine was NOT Uther's wife when Arthur was conceived. Had Uther and Ygraine had other legitimately conceived children, Aurthr would have been .... "inconvenient", and a potential threat to Uther's other sons. For Arthur's own safety, Merlin took the infant Arthur away to be raised separately. One more point; there is only ONE KING AT A TIME. If Uther was King, then Arthur could not be - and Arthur could not be King while Uther lived.
