Chapter 241: The King of Gold
Outcome...... It took a full hour to settle the meal.
If you just put food in your mouth and swallow it until your body signals it to stop, it won't take long.
However, if the preparation process before this is too long, it will naturally delay a lot of time.
For example, if she doesn't give up, she has to be "fed" to her by the first bite of the same food.
By the time we walked out the door, Lancelot had clearly been waiting for a long time.
"My king, Lord Emiya."
When he saw us, Lancelot also bowed slightly.
"Sorry Lancelot, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting."
Seeing that the knight was completely unanxious, I also felt more and more embarrassed in my heart.
"Emiya-sama, you don't have to apologize." Lancelot shook his head and said, "It's what we all hope for to keep our king happy." Besides, it's still early. ”
Lancelot was right, even if it had been delayed until now, and it was just getting dark.
Many of Camelot's residents have even just started to devote themselves to their work.
"That...... Anyway, I don't have to go this time, as long as Artoria is here, it's enough......"
Looking at Lancelot, I thought about it and asked.
The purpose of Lancelot's trip was probably to untie the knot in Guinevere's heart.
Then as long as the girl who is the king is present and tells the real situation, it should be fine.
This was a secret affair between Artoria, Lancelot, and Guinevere, and it would be rude for me to go.
"No, Shirou has to go. It's better to say that it is absolutely impossible to leave Shirou. ”
However, before I could finish my sentence, I was interrupted by the voice of a girl beside me.
"Well, my subordinates have the same opinion as my king on this point." Lancelot also showed a natural expression, "Please, Lord Emiya, I'm sorry to trouble you this time......"
"For ...... Why!? I couldn't help but be stunned, "It seems that I have never been involved in your affairs...... What role can I play? ”
"Lord Emiya, your existence is the best proof of my king's happiness." Lancelot was silent for a moment and said, "Your role in moving Guinevere is irreplaceable. ”
"Well, with Guinevere's soft personality and strong personality, even if I tried to persuade her personally, she would inevitably feel guilty in her heart and refuse to come back with Lancelot. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the shadow in her heart first, so that she understands that everything at the beginning did not cause irreparable consequences as she thought. ”
The girl also nodded, agreeing with Lancelot's statement.
"Even if you say that, I don't know what to do......" I frowned, feeling embarrassed in my heart.
All my impressions of Guinevere are based on other people's descriptions.
What her personality is like, whether she behaves differently, these are completely blank.
If I want to try to persuade someone, who I have never met before, this is not difficult to describe at all.
- That's just impossible!
"Shirou, listen to me." The girl wrapped the back of my hand with a pair of soft palms, "You don't need to do anything special, it's better to say that this is the most precious thing in you." ”
"Huh? What is that? ”
"Your sincerity, and your unreserved frankness, is so reassuring at all times."
Probably because I asked, the girl blushed and said something very concerning.
"And at the beginning...... That's what appealed to me the most. ”
"Original...... Do you think so, Artoria? ”
For some reason, I was faintly happy in my heart.
The girl in front of me has always loved the truest me.
Not only are we physically connected, but our minds are also completely interconnected.
"Please, Shirou, if you can make me change my mind when I was caught in a paradox, then you will definitely be able to save Guinevere too!"
Her blue eyes just stared straight at me.
There was the intimacy and gentleness that I was used to, with a hint of encouragement and pleading.
"Lord Emiya, my subordinates also ask for your help!"
Lancelot also got down on one knee and pleaded.
"I see...... But if something goes wrong, don't come to me then......"
Now, there is no reason to refuse anyway.
Besides, there doesn't seem to be any extra arrangements for today, so it's good to go and meet Guinevere.
It's not that I have any thoughts about Guinevere, but I'm purely curious about the beautiful woman in the legend of the Knight King, who was prophesied by Merlin to be the end of Camelot.
Besides, if Guinevere could return to Camelot, it would be only natural that she, as Lancelot's lover, would meet me more than once in the future.
So, it doesn't hurt to go and say hello in advance.
"Hey, you look idle, little ghost."
And just as I was making such a decision, a voice was heard not far away.
The voice sounded calm at first, but there was an unconcealed arrogance in it.
It is not a deliberate feeling, but the innate way of life of that person.
If there was no such thing, there would be no such person. He just gives people a strong sense of that.
So, such a guy is all Carmelot...... No, there is only one in the world.
"Come and play with this king, it just so happens that this king is extremely boring!"
Dressed in golden armor that shone brightly enough, Gilgamesh strode over.
Whether it is his tone or demeanor, the feeling of going his own way is so vivid, as if the whole world is just a shadow in front of him.
"I said, I'm very busy right now, don't make a mess......"
I said helplessly.
This guy, it's completely useless to reason with him. Because there is no such thing as "thinking for others" in his consciousness......
"Oh? Do you dare to treat this king so resolutely? Gilgamesh raised an eyebrow, "In all the years past, no one has dared to be so bold as you. Do you know what a serious crime this is? ”
Although he said too much, there was no anger in Gilgamesh's eyes.
Rather, it was more of a feeling of interest and curiosity, even a little fresh excitement.
…… Surprisingly child-like, this guy.
"Give you half a minute to tell this king what you're up to." Gilgamesh shook his head, "Otherwise, this king will be pestering you today." Wherever you go, the king will follow. ”
