35.Banquet of the Three Kings (4)
Iskandar was huge, and when he stood up, Webb, who was already short behind him, looked almost like a villain in Lilliputia.
Even more striking is the taut white T-shirt with a map of the whole world printed on the white fabric, which is deliberately displayed by Iskandar to clearly convey to others the owner's desire to conquer the world.
"Gilgamesh, I've guessed the identity of this Golden Shining as well, and you're even more sure when you say that. How's it going, boy, you're not convinced by this golden royal way? ”
Iskandar didn't even look at Ryunosuke in the pool of blood.
When he inspected Caster's workshop, he knew how inhuman this master and Caster were, and that he had fought all his life and experienced battle, and although such a tragic situation was relatively rare, it was not unprecedented.
"It's not quite right to use the description of persuasion, curiosity would be more appropriate, King of Conquest, are you going to show me your royal way too?" Purple replied calmly to Iskander,
But purple doesn't look very interested in this.
"Since you have the intention to submit to me, I also want to show the spirit of a king, so that my subordinates can return to their hearts." Iskandar smiled heartily.
"Hey, I didn't say you'd be your courtier."
Purple immediately pointed out Iskandar's mistake, but ignored it.
"Ah, I want to get the Holy Grail and take root in this new world, of course, after obtaining the Holy Grail, I am willing to share with you, fight together, use this city as a www.biquge.info to start a new journey, and finally get what I want, and show the world my way of dominance! What do you think? “
The red-haired giant man spoke passionately, but his speech touched the heart of another girl.
"This approach...... I disagree. The maiden knight's low tone showed her displeasure.
"Really...... Knight King, you who follow the way of chivalry, of course, cannot approve of the method of conquering the king, in fact, although you have all gathered a group of subjects to conspire for a great cause, the essence is indeed completely different, but if you want to say anything about the ideal of restoring Britain, you still have to die. ”
Purple blocked Artoria's words and went back.
“…… How will you know my wishes? ”
The girl knight, who felt humiliated, immediately responded strongly, but judging from her tone, she was still shocked.
"In terms of character, the knight king who has dedicated his life to Britain is of course a model of holiness and nobility, and you can feel your hard work and belief in graduation from the light of your treasure last night, I am not a so-called king, and I don't mean to accuse you, but, Artoria, you should be proud of yourself, not regret it." Purple showed a very disgusted expression.
“…… No, why do you feel proud? Isn't it a proof of my mistake to entrust me with the sword, to which I have devoted my whole life, to which my country has been ruined? ”
There was a strong sense of self-loathing in the Maiden Knight's tone.
In her holy green pupils, there was unwilling remorse and a determination to make amends.
"Do you think it's a mistake?"
"How not? The mention of pride only makes me feel like you're laughing at me. ”
"Ah, sure enough, you ...... at this time"
Purple shook his head, he could understand Artoria's thoughts, but there are some things you can only stop and can't reverse, which is why so many delusions are born.
However, the so-called delusion actually means that you have regretted it.
"...... at this time? I have never seen you before I was summoned, but I cannot agree with your statement, the so-called king, should stand up and diligently strive for the prosperity of the motherland, like me, but the loser......"
The girl knight righteously retorted to Purple, but Purple interrupted her mercilessly.
"Failed, but shouldn't regret it."
Purple said firmly, and her tone was loud.
"Artoria, the way of knighthood is indeed not suitable for the battlefield, in the flames of bloody battles, justice and ideals are dross that should be abandoned, ridiculed by unscrupulous conspirators and victories, but since you have chosen the way of chivalry, become the king of knights, and leave a splendid legend in the history books that will always be desirable, it means that you have firmly reached the end of this path, although this end is neither brilliant and beautiful, but also ends in desolate sadness."
King Arthur, in British lore, is an almost mythical legend, in the barbaric and dark age, it was King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table heroes who drove out the powerful enemy with bravery and strength, led the Britons to find the light, and united the islands.
Even if the established dynasty fell apart and fratricidal, King Arthur's name still shines in the long river of history through the ages.
"Uh, you say...... What the? ”
The maiden knight shook her steps in amazement, her blue-white armor rattling.
"I mean, Saber, you should be proud of what you have accomplished, you should be proud of, even if the people and the knights have finally abandoned you, but the faith that has been carried out to the end, even if it is wrong, is what you are most proud of! The difference between people lies in the soul and faith, unshakable faith, no one can defeat you, no one can make you regret it! ”
Purple's assertion comforted the maiden knight, but there was an indescribable anger.
She prayed for peace, hoping that the country would be prosperous and stable, and that she could wash away the ruin of the country in the past, but in her heart, she actually had a faint realization that it was impossible to achieve.
"I ......"
Artoria wanted to retort.
Although this was a human whom she hated so much, not all of his words were unacceptable from the point of view of justice, but it was painful for her to think of the sight of corpses strewn across the hill of the setting sun, littered with her subjects, friends, and relatives.
Yes, the moment the sword was drawn from the stone, she received a prophecy.
However, despite her early enlightenment, when she saw the tragic sight and was stabbed into the sword by Mordred's own hand, she felt powerless and hoped for a miracle.
Under such a contradiction, she still held the sword and got such an ending, is there any point in her regret......
Artoria was immersed in a flurry of thoughts.
Iskandar asked again.
"Boy, what are you curious about when you made this scene?"
Iskander's face was flushed from drinking, but his expression was very satisfied.
"No one can make you regret it...... This is my decision at the moment, but for the short-lived humans, even if they embark on the path of the devil, I am afraid of the future changes, time is the most terrible killer, corrupting the soul and distorting beliefs...... Gilgamesh, can you give me an answer? ”
