"Okay, you can ask."

After thinking about it, I finally nodded.

As Richard said, there is nothing he can do to threaten us now.

And if it's just a problem, it won't be a problem under the watchful eye of all of us.

"Thank you, you're a generous man."

Richard smiled.

Then, he walked straight up to Pope Leo.

"You...... What are you doing? ”

The Pope looked nervous, and retreated in the face of Richard's approach.

"Don't be afraid, Your Holiness the Pope." Richard shook his head, "I used to be your loyal warrior, and now I can't betray you because of your loss of power. I just wanted to ask you, did you really give it your all in the battle just now? If you were to command the battle with all your might, she wouldn't be so easily defeated with the help of the dragon. ”

"Hmph, do you think I don't want to command? However, the truth is that after the Holy Grail called her, she was completely out of my control. Leo snorted, "But you're right, Kurocha left the battle on her own initiative. Otherwise, if she insists on fighting, how can you win so easily? ”

"Oh? That's kind of weird. When Richard heard this, a thoughtful look appeared on his face, "According to normal inference, the existence of evil should not turn to justice at all." How can we believe in darkness so easily turn to light? ”

This is because the essence of human nature is good. Original sin is born from the origin of good, and if there is no truth, goodness and beauty, then evil will lose its meaning. ”

Joan of Arc said lightly behind him.

"In other words, good and evil are actually interdependent, right?" Richard sighed, "Isn't there no way for pure good to really drive out evil?" ”

"Yes, good and evil are relative. This is often the case in war, and if the great good of saving the long-term peace between the two countries can be achieved by killing a small number of enemy soldiers, then many times we must do evil for the sake of achieving good. ”

Artoria also walked up at this time, shook her head, and said.

"I see, it's me who thinks everything is too simple." Richard took a deep breath and a wry smile appeared on his face, "I thought that with enough effort, I could bring pure goodness to the world. Now it seems that it is really a simple big talk......"

"Richard, go back, it's all over now. You can let go of the obsessions in your heart and watch us complete the rest of the tasks. ”

Artoria sighed.

“…… Sure enough, after all, you still regarded me as a child, and never regarded me as a true warrior......" Richard sighed, "after all...... Ancestor, for whom do you think that I have worked so hard to spread goodness, and for which I have not hesitated to start a war and bear the blame? ”

"Richard ......"

"Me...... But I grew up listening to your stories since I was a child, and I admired your deeds so much that I couldn't add enough admiration for your deeds. Richard's eyes began to blur, "I have been dreaming of being like you, acting for my cherished beliefs, and guarding all that I cherish." ”

"So...... I have volunteered to be your successor, and I want to accomplish what you did not do in your lifetime, and to truly turn the way of knighthood into an existence that all the world looks up to and longs for. It is for this purpose that I have worked all the way to where I am today. ”

"I ...... I would love to hear from you, and I can only feel at ease if you smile affirmatively at me. There was a pleading look in Richard's eyes, "So, Ancestor, can you please give me a piece of approval?" ”

“……”

All of us turned our eyes to Artoria in the middle.

Now she is the central figure of the topic.

“…… I'm not going to give you recognition. ”

However, after a moment of silence, the girl pursed her lips and said.

"Sure enough...... Didn't the Ancestors take me seriously? I get it...... All my efforts have been completely meaningless......"

Richard's eyes darkened suddenly.

"Because...... The only thing that can give you recognition is yourself. The girl then shook her head and said, "You are already a hero in your own right, and countless people have praised your name and worshiped you as a spiritual pillar and idol. With such a great reputation that is not inferior to mine, how can I be qualified to comment on you? ”

"This ......," Richard couldn't help but be stunned.

"All in all, you need to be a little more confident, Your Majesty!" Carol St interjected at this time, "My subordinates wanted to tell you a long time ago, don't talk about one ancestor and one knight king all day long!" Your achievements are also obvious to all of us. ”

"Blind...... What nonsense, when will I ......"

Richard's face turned red and he kept arguing.

"That...... Your Majesty, though you may have forgotten it yourself, Carolst's words are true, and we have all heard them......" The rest of the servants interjected at this time, "even in your sleep more than once......

"Wow! Enough is enough! Hurry back to the Throne of the Immortal, I don't have the face to stay any longer! ”

Richard turned in embarrassment and tried to run away.

"I said, it's caused us so much trouble, do you want to leave now?"

Joan of Arc, however, was a stride in front of Richard.

"Or else? What do you want to do? I can't beat all of you, but if I want to leave, you still can't keep my ......."

Richard was a little dissatisfied.

"You have caused so much trouble to my king, let alone stay and atone for your sins."

Lancelot caught up and said in a deep voice.

"Haha, that's the truth, since we are both knights, it's much easier, although we can understand your situation, but the previous sins can't be just settled." Dilumudo also laughed loudly, "After apologizing to Miss Nero, join us for the time being!" ”

"Let me ...... Join? Reason was stunned, "This kind of thing...... Can the ancestors allow it? ”

"Of course, if you want to, Britain will be happy to fit in." Artoria also smiled, "You are a free heroic spirit yourself, go and stay at will." If you insist on returning to the Throne of the Immortal now, that's fine......"

"Nope! I'm going to stay! Before the girl could finish speaking, Richard said excitedly, "I can fight side by side with the ancestor who is the knight king or something...... I've only had this kind of thing in my dreams before. ”
