Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Lord of Britain
After Grohris left, silence returned to the empty hall.
"Okay, isn't the matter settled, don't be bitter." Seeing that everyone was silent, Skaha waved his arm heroically, "Lily, you deal with government affairs first, and I'll take the little ghost to cultivate." ”
"Huh? Do you want to cultivate now? I felt a wave of surprise in my heart, "I'm fine, but if I don't handle so many government affairs first......
"Dealing with government affairs is not something you should do at this stage." Skaha interrupted me mercilessly, "Even without your help, Lily can handle it herself, can she?" You deserve a bigger, irreplaceable role. ”
…………
"Shirou, you go with Sister Skaha, there's Bedwell here." The girl looked up from the dense dossier and said to me.
"Hee-hee, Lily, don't even think about staying out of it." Skaha smiled at the girl, "When you teach the little ghost, it's your turn to be instructed." ”
"I understand, I must study carefully and strive to improve the efficiency of Camelot's internal affairs and even the whole of Britain as soon as possible." The girl nodded solemnly and stood up and saluted Skaha.
"Oh Lily, being too serious will make you less feminine." Skaha rubbed his temples as if he was embarrassed, "Really, try to laugh even when the imp is not there." ”
…………
"Right...... I'm sorry. The girl's pretty face began to turn red, "Because I used to be a man, I'm used to it......"
"Phew, it looks like my task is quite difficult." Skaha shook his head a little amusedly, "That's it, as long as you drag the imp on everything, it's easy to deal with you." ”
"Hey, Skaha-senpai, I'm not your tool!" I protested again and again, "So don't try to use me and make Artoria do strange things!" ”
"Don't be arrogant, it's not certain whether you are qualified to be my tool!" As soon as Skaha grabbed me by the collar, he dragged me out the door, "Now, follow me to practice immediately!" ”
"Let it go...... Let it go. "Skaha's strength is so great that I can't break free on my own or hurt her with magic, so I can only let her take me out savagely......
The girl and Bedwell looked at each other, and each drew a cross on his chest with his face to me......
…………
Despite being a first-time visitor to Camelot, Skaha seemed to know the structure of the palace inside out, and chose the shortest and least laborious path.
Skaha led me all the way out of the palace to a garden in the back.
As far as I can remember, this was one of the royal gardens, and it seemed that there were always different kinds of flowers blooming, but they were all beautiful.
Surrounded by the fresh aroma of plants, it is like a dream in a fairy tale.
It's a pity that it's almost impossible for Camelot to get into it now.
Morgan Le Fay was defeated, Guinevere became a nun, Grories was exiled, and Artoria was busy with state affairs.
…………
"That...... Skaha, this is the royal garden, we can't enter it at will, right? "I can't help but remind Skaha.
"What are you afraid of, little ghost, aren't you Lily's lover? Barely half a member of the royal family. Skaha didn't care at all, "And I, as the teacher who taught you, wouldn't it be against the rules to enter with you?" ”
"You're so domineering, always interpreting the rules in your favor." I smiled helplessly.
"No, the rules have to serve people, not bind people to death. If that's the case, you're putting the cart before the horse. A bright smile appeared on Skaha's face, "Britain's biggest problem has always been that the color of abstinence is too strong. When a knight takes an oath, he wants to give his life to the country and the people at every turn. Really, according to Fergus, if there is time to cultivate that noble sentiment, it is better to drink two more barrels of wine and go to the battlefield to cut down a few more enemies. ”
“…… Is this the heroic feeling unique to Celtic heroes? "I didn't know what to say for a while, so I had to keep talking.
"It's not just Celtic, the biggest goal of life is to be happy." Skaha flicked my forehead slightly, "I don't mean to criticize British tradition, but watch out for the knights of Camelot, few people laugh a lot, do they?" ”
…………
"Uh......h Don't keep popping my forehead. But what you said is true, and the knights are probably serious and serious. After thinking about it, I nodded in acknowledgement.
"So, if you do your job as a mission that you can't question, you're bound to have problems over time. To what extent Lily has been distorted by the ideal of protecting Britain, you know best, little ghost. Skaha stroked his forehead and said, "If you want to do something well, you must feel joy in it." This is the biggest premise. ”
“…… Feel, happy? I couldn't help but repeat Skaha's words.
…………
"Okay, just listen to it, there's no need to take it to heart." Skaha interrupted my thoughts, and reached out to a half-opened bouquet of roses beside me, "Imp, you can now put your palms on the ground and try to make this rose fully open." ”
“…… You, you're kidding! I couldn't help but be dumbfounded, "Even the highest level of magic or even magic cannot interfere with the process of the formation of life itself!" ”
"It's true that you can't do it by magic, but it's a simple thing for those who have inherited the concept of 'Lord Britannica.'" Arms crossed, Skaha looked at me slyly and smiled.
“…… Do you know it all? After a moment of silence, I looked up and asked.
…………
"Well, including most of the things about Votiggen, the Underlord." Skaha nodded slightly, confirming my guess.
"Little ghost, if you want to really get rid of Fu Tigeng's entanglement with you, you must completely inherit its own power." Seeing that I was silent, Skaha continued, "Besides, if you want to repair Britain's climate, and even solve the problem of food scarcity, you need to rely on this power. ”
"Can you help me?" I looked at Skaha's majestic red eyes.
"Of course, didn't I say I'm going to take you to cultivate." The confidence on Skaha's face was extremely trusting, "Just use your own magic to connect to the leylines, and then use the power of the leylines to control the entire British island." I can guide you on the specifics, after all, I do similar things almost every day in the Shadow Country. ”
