Chapter 53: The Knight
However, it doesn't make much sense because the point is not what she thinks, but what those who feel they are doing wrong.
Like Lancelot, Artoria absolved him and Guinevere of guilt, acting from the bottom of her heart, and sincerely wishing them well, as if she felt that it was the right outcome and felt relieved about it.
Lancelot, however, went crazy because of this, and went to the end of erosion, and even degenerated into a ridiculous beast that could call himself a knight when he was in Fuyuki City. It's just that the remorse and self-blame that sprouted in his heart eventually turned into anger and hatred, and he kept cursing himself.
Therefore, what they need is not Artoria's unilateral understanding and forgiveness, but the opportunity to truly correct their regrets and mistakes in lifeβto be able to make amends for their own mistakes, or to be judged by the king for disloyalty, to judge the crime, or even to kill them with his own hands, so that they can be relieved a little.
So give them the opportunity to do something wrong for themselves...... The girl thought silently, and repeatedly told herself to be determined to follow the master's script.
"Wait, wait, The Lion King...... It turned out to be the real King Arthur? AndγAnd it's such a slender girl? β
Matthew looked at the scene in front of him in amazement, and he vaguely understood what was going on.
"That's the only explanation, I don't think this group of fanatical knights will recognize someone......" Leonardo da Vinci frowned tightly, and pulled Matthew quietly in the direction of Skaha and Mordred, the almighty genius had already sniffed some kind of ominous omen.
"But...... Why? β
Gawain couldn't care about the Chaldean people behind him at all, even if they were still comrades in life and death just half a minute ago, he just asked urgently.
"Gao Wenqing, what do you mean?" The blonde girl asked with an expressionless face, although she had made up her mind, she really had no talent for lying, so she had no acting skills at all in this regard, and the lines were simply read.
It's just that there is really no need for acting skills, at least at this time, no one will associate it in the direction of "reading lines", but they all subconsciously feel that the king of knights is cold and has no feelings at all.
"It's Camelot......" Gawain hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, he also noticed that something seemed to be wrong with Wang, although he didn't know what the reason was for the time being.
"Camelot? Naturally, the Camelot is still here! Artoria replied indifferently, "I swear that as long as I exist, then I will definitely make Camelot a rich and stable country, and I will never lose to the legendary ideal country!" β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
There was a moment of silence.
The Knights of the Round Table, led by Gawain, could not describe the sense of loss in their hearts, and they subconsciously remembered some memories that seemed to be a long, long time ago, when the king had always fought for such an ideal, and he never squinted his eyes on the throne because of melancholy, and he did not have any confusion when he shuttled through the battlefield.
And the current king seems to be the same, although it seems that she no longer seems to suppress her feelings as a human being, but has no human feelings at all, but she has strictly guarded this oath to this day.
"You're from Chaldea, aren't you?"
At this time, the Lion King, or King Arthur, had already looked at Matthew and Da Vinci "indifferently", and said in an uninhibited tone-
"It must have been a long and arduous journey to get here, right? Your will and deeds are commendable, and I recognize your efforts and will accept all of you and give you ...... forever."
"W-What do you mean?" Matthew was slightly stunned, it seemed that this knight king was not hostile?
The blonde-haired girl glanced at her and explained "indifferently":
"As you can see, the history of mankind will be ended by someone's actions, but only this age will survive without any infringement. What I am looking for is to complete the ideal land that will not be violated by anyone, and to achieve a pure white thousand-year kingdom. β
"Ideal Township ......?"
"Yes, this era will eventually stand on its own from the burned history of mankind, but I will protect the people, I will protect you, at any cost......" King Arthur said, "The glory of Camelot lives on, and you will remain in this peculiar point forever." β
"W-What? How can this? This ......" Matthew finally understood, but her first reaction was to shake her head again and again, she couldn't accept such a result.
"Why? You don't seem to agree? Despite this inquiry, King Arthur's expression remained unchanged, as if she did not have any doubts, "This is the only way for human beings to survive, and your journey can end here......"
"No, no, it's not right......"
The girl with the shield shook her head vigorously, she didn't know what to say, although she didn't know exactly what kind of method it was, but she just intuitively felt that this result was very problematic.
Leonardo da Vinci had already spoken: "I'm sorry, what we want to do is to restore the entire history of mankind, instead of letting human beings be preserved in a field like anomalies as the only remaining specimens, and completely lose the future ......"
The almighty genius had already understood for the first time what this King Arthur meant, this was not the only way to protect humanity, it was just to make humans into specimens.
Humanity is still extinct, history is still over, but there is at least one such peculiarity compared to the fact that nothing has been left in the past, like a snapshot on the Internet, and human beings have been preserved as specimens......
But does that really make sense?
"Really? It's a pity, but it seems that we have absolutely conflicting contradictions with each other...... But I still hope that you will change your mind, I have no intention of being your enemy, but if you want to deny me, then I will also deny you. β
King Arthur nodded very calmly, "Soβknow your limits, and accept my protection." Of course I won't force it, if you really don't want to, you can leave this era just now, I won't hurt you, just give me the round table in your hand until then, Knight of the Shield. β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
There was a terrible silence.
"I'm sorry, I can't give this shield to you......" Matthew subconsciously grabbed the big shield in his hand, this shield is an extremely important treasure, and it is precisely with its existence that the master can have the special ability to make alliances with many servants.
Once handed over, the pace of human restoration business can really only end here. Presumably, this knight king is ready to take down this shield for this reason, right? She wanted to make sure that this peculiarity would not fail because of the actions of Chaldea and others until her "ideal home" was successfully created.
Maybe even the Imperial Master was captured, and it was because of such a reason that everything could be explained.
"It's okay if you don't hand it over, but then you won't be able to leave......" King Arthur still ruthlessly gave the ultimatum, and as she watched with her calm gaze, Matthew suddenly felt a great pressure and almost trembled.
But in the next moment, the graceful figure stood in front of her, blocking all the pressure.
Skaha snorted, "Don't be intimidated by her, if you want to detain us, you can't do it with her words......"
Although it is very domineering, as soon as the Queen of the Shadow Country comes out, it is basically equivalent to intensifying the contradictions and conflicts between the two sides, and it is completely put on the table, and there is no longer any possibility of obfuscating the past...... Although, it was impossible to be confused.
"Are you going to be hostile to me?" The King of Knights had expected this, and she looked in the direction of the Knight of the Round Table again, "So, what do you mean, Gao Wenqing?" β
At this time, Matthew also subconsciously looked at Gawain on the side.
What I saw was a flash of brilliance that resembled the sun, and Gao Wen's powerful and heavy holy sword was blocked by Bedwell, who reacted in time, and the latter who was blocking in front of Ma Xiu looked shocked and angry: "Gao Wenqing, what are you interfering with?!" β
"Get out of the way! Bedwell! The White Horse Knight exclaimed, "Why did you stop me?!" β
Matthew reacted in hindsight, and his heart was suddenly half cold, but he didn't have time to think about it, and he heard the terrible sound of chopping the wind in his ears, and when he turned his head to look again, he saw that Mordred, who was clenching his teeth, had already brandished the magic sword to meet him and fought with Lancelot.
"I know, it's really a good dog, can your father make you rebel directly with just one word?" The rebellious knight was so taunting, she had just realized the problem, so she had been paying attention, so she was able to react the moment the other party drew her sword and turned against her.
"Thank you for the compliment, it's the most comforting thing I've ever heard from your traitor......" The Knight of the Lake said unmoved, very calmly, and with the blessing of the magic release, the sword of the indestructible lake light weighed unexpectedly.
"Youββ!! Damn it! You're not a traitor too! What qualifications do you have to say about me! β
Mordred was furious, and the red lightning released by the magic sword fiercely resisted the sword pressure on the opposite side.
The same traitor, the same depraved magic sword, at this moment, the two people who seem to be mirror images of each other are frantically fighting together.
In just a moment, the infighting had already happened, and in the face of close comrades-in-arms who were once brothers and sisters, the Knights of the Round Table at this moment were suddenly divided into two camps because of King Arthur's words - Gawain, Lancelot and Tristan did not hesitate to attack the Chaldeans.
"Stop! Can you still be knights like this?! Bedwell let out a wide-eyed roar.
However, in response to him, it was Gawain's holy sword that slashed down on the head, and with an unhesitating momentum, he wanted to kill him under the sword with one blow!
