Chapter 245: The Knight's Choice

The girl and I looked at each other, and there was a little disbelief in our eyes.

"So, Gilgamesh, do you have to come with us to help us?" I opened my mouth several times before I could say it.

"Hmph, this king repeats again, all of this king's actions are just for fun." Gilgamesh folded his arms impatiently and tilted his head, "As long as it can disrupt the world's plans, this king is happy to do it." ”

"Gilgamesh, you will do whatever it takes to oppose the world, because ......," the girl said hesitantly.

Her words weren't finished, but we all understood the implications.

Gilgamesh was originally the perfect combination of gods and men, and it was also the perfect bridge between humans and gods that the Uruk gods had hoped for.

Eventually, however, Gilgamesh was so disgusted with God that he was unwilling to use his divinity.

And the important reason for this situation is undoubtedly the death of Enqidu.

- Gilgamesh's best and only best friend.

"This king is just for himself." Gilgamesh's eyes narrowed, and it was impossible to see the emotion in them.

"Artoria, leave this alone." I shook my head and said, "As long as the current results are good for us, there is no need to delve too deep into the truth." ”

Yes, Gilgamesh is of the same rank as Merlin and Skaha, and can be classified as an "Out-of-World Sage".

I am afraid that their spiritual realm has already surpassed ordinary people by many times, so that it is unimaginable.

And I, obviously, am an ordinary person.

Therefore, the focus should also be on the outcome, not the process.

"Hmm...... The imp is right. Gilgamesh looked satisfied, "There are many things you don't need to know so clearly, just as an ant only needs to know that the world is as big as a dark corner. Instead of chasing unanswered answers, it is better to give up thinking and live happily. ”

"Yes, yes...... You're right, I've been taught. I nodded helplessly.

At first glance, Gilgamesh's words sound sarcastic and conceited, but there is always a deep truth in them.

If you have the ability to withstand all kinds of ridicule from him, it doesn't hurt to listen to him so much.

Lancelot never participated in the conversation.

From the moment he arrived, his eyes never took off the monastery in front of him.

It was obviously a mediocre decoration and a somewhat dilapidated iron door, but Lancelot looked so attentive and affectionate.

- The lover of my longing is there, and it is within reach.

However, it was blocked by life.

No matter how many physical obstacles there are, they can't stop the sincere heart of the brave knight.

However, invisible obstacles can make things close in front of you seem to be thousands of miles apart.

But—

"Go in, and Artoria and I will be with you."

I stepped forward to stand beside the knight and whispered.

"Well, thank you, Lord Emiya." The knight took a deep breath, the look on his face that could not hide a trace of trepidation in anticipation.

Anticipation is natural, and long-cherished wishes are about to come true here, and even if you can't wait, it's completely normal.

But in fact, can it really be as good as it could be?

When there is no answer, the unresolved pain is always mixed with unrealistic sweetness.

I haven't seen the result, so I can let my soft heart hide in my dreams.

Even if it's just a rare miracle, it can happen.

Even if it is impossible, you can deceive yourself into believing in that existence.

But once the truth was revealed, there was no cover-up.

Even the worst possibility has to be accepted with all your strength.

- Even if the cold wind bites the bones, it eats the flesh and blood.

Therefore, many people have clearly paid their lives for the belief in their hearts.

However, when it came time to witness the result, he chose to give up.

It's not that they're cowardly, it's because they're too strong.

Strong enough to absorb all the tribulations, so unable to accept that nothing may come to them.

So, the last step is perhaps the hardest.

"My friend, if you need time to calm down, I can wait."

The girl walked up in understanding, bit her lip slightly, and said.

…… I see.

Is it not only Lancelot who is feeling the pressure, but also Artoria?

Whether she can fully restore her previous relationship with her nominal princess, she has no bottom in her heart.

“…… No, the subordinates are fine. Lancelot took a deep breath and looked up, "I've finally come here, it's time for a result." ”

"Besides...... No matter how unsatisfactory the result is, the current subordinates have found their own home and have their own home. This is unimaginable for his subordinates, as beautiful as a dream. Therefore, it is already a divine grace to be able to go so far, and the rest should be attached. If it really doesn't belong to the subordinates, then the subordinates will definitely not force it. ”

His face seemed to show a somewhat relaxed expression the next moment. The curse of love, called at this moment, seems to have been diluted.

"Don't worry, I'll help you, Artoria will help you, including Gilgamesh. You are never alone behind you, and it is also the common wish of everyone to let you be happy. ”

I patted Lancelot on the shoulder and encouraged.

Lancelot didn't say anything more, just nodded at me slightly.

———

Tuk-tuk...

Lancelot stepped forward and gently slammed the door.

Squeak –

In the middle of the night, the back door opened, and a young nun poked her head out.

"Hello, may I ask who you are...?"

The nun looked at the tall and handsome Lancelot in front of her, and for a moment her face turned red, and she bowed her head and muttered, not daring to look at him at all.

In terms of personal image and temperament, Lancelot is indeed extremely outstanding, and he is probably among the best among the beautiful men of his time.

"Hello, respectable beautiful lady." Lancelot smiled charmingly, his teeth were white, and his brown eyes were unusually bright, "There's a knight from Camelot below, who happened to pass by here and wanted to rest for a while, I wonder if it's convenient?" ”

It is worthy of Lancelot, this remark is full of etiquette and reason, so that there is no reason to refuse.

It's just that he still seems to have doubts about directly disclosing his identity, and he didn't explain his intention at the first time.

"Is it Camelot's knight!?" The young nun suddenly showed a surprised expression, "It's the first time I've seen it in my life......"

"I am just one of many who are loyal to my king." Lancelot smiled slightly, without the slightest hint of pride.
