The formation of the Knights of the Round Table represents the entire Camelot...... No, the most powerful knights in all of Britain have come together, and in addition to the sword and spirit, there is also an indispensable part of a good knight.

Mounts.

To celebrate the formation of the Knights of the Round Table, the people spontaneously selected the best horses from the horse farms around the country and sent them to Camelot to present the best mounts to the Knights of the Round Table.

Sword, good horse and spirit, these three elements are an indispensable part of a strong knight, the knights of the round table are selected by their excellent spiritual qualities and strong force, some of them also have swords, and even the swords of Lancelot and Gao Wenqing have the power of the sword in the king's hand.

But a good horse is not owned by everyone, like Tristan, who was driven away by the king he used to serve, and when he came to Britain, he rode only a thin old horse, and did not have a mount of his own.

So when the horses offered by the people were delivered to the stables of the royal palace, the Knights of the Round Table were glad to choose a day to choose their mounts.

"Lancelot, which one are you going to choose?" Gawain looked at the dozen or so horses in the stable in front of him and asked the knight on the side.

"Hmm..... I need to look at it again to make a decision. Lancelot walked back and forth in front of the stable, observing the horses repeatedly.

"Is it serious, or does Lancelot have any special needs? I think these horses are all good horses, and even if there is a gap between them, it will not be a big difference. Gawain walked over, reached over the fence, and touched the head of a horse, which rubbed against him very affectionately, and it seemed that it was a very gentle horse.

"Those are not problems, the most important thing between the rider and the mount is the fit, which can only be understood after contact. Like Gawain, Lancelot began to stroke the horses' heads in turn, some of them acting docile, others appearing very irritable, and flicking their heads not to be touched by humans.

"That's not just for knights and mounts, is it, between knights and knights, isn't it?" Gawain laughed, his gentle smile like a spring breeze that moved thousands of girls.

"Hmph, do you need to say this? I think my compatibility with Gao Wenqing is quite good. Then he touched the horse, and the other showed not obedience or resistance, but cheerfulness, and the two hind hooves raised dust, and looked very happy.

"Isn't that good? ”

They are the knights of the king's majesty, once they go on the expedition, they represent the face of the king, and they must be united, and for the sake of the excellent king, the knights must show the king's demeanor to outsiders.

"That's right, but Gao Wenqing, have you chosen your own horse? Opening the fence, Lancelot led a white horse out of the stable, and the other man happily stuck out his tongue and licked the knight's face a few times, and from now on they were companions in the four directions of the battle.

"Me? My partner has already decided. Gawain withdrew his hand and left the stable. "My partner has been with me since I embarked on my journey with Wang, it is my best friend, and I have no intention of giving it up. ”

"yes, that's not bad. Lancelot patted the horse's side cheek and told it not to continue licking itself, after all, the image of being a knight of the round table still needs to be maintained, and what is it like to be licked by the horse all the time.

"By the way, Lancelot, are you okay in a moment?"

"It's okay, does Gao Wenqing have anything you want me to do?"

Although Lancelot has the title of the first knight of the Round Table, the leader of the Round Table is not him, but Gawain, whose gentle personality and fair attitude make Gawain the undisputed leader of the Round Table.

"If it's okay, why don't you go to the arena and have a fight, I'd love to learn how good the first knight of the round table is. "But a gentle personality does not mean that he is not competitive, or that he is competitive, which every knight has, and Gawain has long wanted to compete with Lancelot.

"Yes, that's good, I've wanted to talk to Gao Wenqing for a long time, so let's go now." ”

The two knights smiled at each other, and Lancelot handed the reins to the guards, and left the stable side by side with Gawain.

In the distance, a soldier ran over, and at the same time, from the direction of the outer city, there was a loud noise.

"Lancelot, Gao Wenqing, the foreign enemy has begun to attack, please go to the southern city wall immediately to organize defense. ”

The two knights frowned and looked at each other.

"It seems that this duel can only be postponed later. ”

"Well, it seems so. ”

Lancelot turned to the horse-leading guard, pulled the horse back again, and rode on.

Gawain whistled, and a white horse galloped in from afar, and that was his companion.

Then the two knights and the two white horses departed together.

None of them expected that this duel, which was originally initiated by a competitive spirit, would end up being the product of hatred.

――――――

The white horse collapsed on the grass, one of its wings had been torn off by the berserker, and it had lost its ability to fly, and not only that, but the bleeding wound was depriving it of its vitality, and the horse's mouth slowly opened and closed, and its eyes were somewhat distracted as it looked at the knight in silver armor in front of it.

Gawain pressed his hand on its body, as a knight, he had strong force, but he could not save the injured life, he could only watch his old companion gradually die, although in a sense, returning to Valhalla is not death, Pegasus is just a by-product of Gawain's heroic spiritualization, if you have to say that it is an existence similar to the treasure.

However, the feelings accumulated over the years are not so easily indelible, since the king embarked on the journey, he has been moving forward with this partner, and now watching it leave, how can it not be sad.

Eventually, Pegasus closes his eyes, and his body turns golden, gradually disintegrating.

There was a strong oppression behind him, and Gao Wen immediately lifted the sword of the sun wheel in his hand, turned around and struck, but was knocked away by the powerful force, and took a few steps back on the hillside before barely stopping.

No matter how sad the knight was with the red mist wrapped all over his body, the Berserker now had only one goal, and that was to kill the enemy in front of him.

Rider was a little angry, but under the anger was more calm, he knew very well that his strength was not enough to confront the berserker after the enchantment, and his master was fighting with another master, and he had no time to distract himself from his side, so the only one who could rely on him was himself.

"Lancelot, is it completely inhuman after becoming a berserker?"

“ah~~”

It's not an answer, berserker continues to launch onslaught, each attack is directed at Rider's vital point, fortunately, in terms of combat skills, because of the madness and loss of reason, berserker's skills have decreased slightly, which allows Rider to dodge the opponent's attack with considerable skill in the case of insufficient strength.

The pressure from the berserker forced him to retreat, and the fierce beast-like attacks of the opponent did not give Rider a chance to breathe, let alone fight back, and there was still some time before three o'clock in the afternoon, and if it continued like this, Rider's strength would be almost exhausted before three o'clock in the afternoon.

This is not going to work, and Rider is keenly aware of this.

He simply turned around and ran towards the bottom of the sword fence, and at the same time, the sword of the sun wheel in his hand ignited a flame, and as he ran, he set the grass on the ground on fire, forming a wall of fire.

The wall of fire was too small for Berserker to even delay, and he rushed straight into the flames, not afraid of the flames, and continued to chase after Rider.

Running while fending off the opponent's attacks and releasing flames, Rider is now consuming more mana than before, and out of the spirit of a knight, he did not ask his master for mana supplies, but completely relied on his own magic to support it, because he knew that the battle on the master's side would not be easy to solve.

As long as the Sun Knight is in a sunny place, he can get mana replenishment, and the amount of replenishment depends entirely on the distance between the sun and himself, the closer he gets, the more magic Gawain can get.

The path he took was not without meaning, and the flames on the hillside soon formed a huge circle, and when the circle was completed, Gawain ran to the center of the circle.

"It's time to settle the ledger, Lancelot!"

Gawain's sword of the sun wheel ignited even more fierce flames, and he swung his blade at the opponent, although he didn't know how much he could resist, but if he couldn't stop the opponent's attack at this time, then everything was over.

Berserker was not afraid of the flames on the opponent's blade in the slightest, and continued to rush towards the opponent, suddenly, he shook a little, the speed of his progress slowed, and the blade in his hand shook, colliding with Gawain's sword of the sun wheel.

Gawain was overjoyed by the change, Berserker's blow was much less powerful than before, and he didn't know why, but it was a good opportunity to turn defeat into victory.

"This sword is the embodiment of the sun, the sun that burns up all impurities. ”

Gawain threw the sword of the sun wheel in his hand high, and the sword spun in the air at a rapid speed, forming a circle, accompanied by the flames, like a small sun rising into the sky.

As if the flames on the circle had been ignited, they became more violent, and the scattered walls of fire joined together to form a pattern like a magic circle.

Gao Wen could feel that the small sun formed by the rotation of the Sun Wheel Sword was transmitting powerful magic power, supplementing the mana consumption in Gao Wen, so it would be enough.

The sun shattered, turned into a wave, and spread in all directions, and the sword of the sun wheel stopped spinning and returned to Gawain's hand.

"Excalibur・Gallatin!"

Waves struck the berserker, and with it, flames from the ground, piercing the sky, and in the midst of the circle, a bright fire rose like a nuclear bomb bursting, an explosion made entirely of flames, like a sun born from the earth, burning everything involved in it.
