Chapter 103: Types of Kings
The petal-like delicate red lips moved slightly, and the girl finally lowered her head in silence.
“…… Well, you need to go back and get some rest now. Don't think about anything just yet, just get some sleep. Sighing slightly, Skaha smiled softly, and instead reached out and wrapped his arms around the girl's slender shoulders from the side.
"Thank you...... Sister Skaha. The girl whispered, leaving Skahashi to do her best, without the slightest sign of resistance.
"Little ghost, I'll leave it to you first, I'll send Lily back to rest." Turning back to me, Skaha whispered comforting words in the girl's ear as she walked slowly in the direction of the room.
…………
"Master Skaha...... It's very reliable. Seeing Skaha's motherly and loving behavior, Bedwell on the side was also amazed.
"Yes, although I am always indecent and like to bully people, the critical moment is enough to reassure people." Looking at the girl's thoughtful care of the girl, a smile appeared on my lips.
"Well, Lord Skaha is a good man, too." Bedwell's expression softened, "Lady Emiya, you are always able to attract true noble people to your side. It is also because of your arrival that the atmosphere of the whole Camelot is now much more united and harmonious. ”
"Haha, I didn't play a role, it's all the result of everyone's joint efforts." I swung my hands in front of my chest.
"......" Betwereville laughed and said no more.
…………
The rest of the day, I asked Bedwell for some updates on Camelot.
Since Artoria returned to the throne in a new capacity and completely reversed Britain's weak position after the Battle of Kamran, the situation in the country has largely stabilized.
The panicked people began to settle down to work and live, and the various undertakings that had been forced to be abandoned showed signs of recovery.
Decrees began to be issued in an orderly manner, and the social order that had been destroyed by the war returned to its proper order.
In short, the current situation of Camelot is very good, and it is only a matter of time before it returns to the "ideal city" of its heyday.
…………
"Border affairs must be kept secret, and they must not be known by the people in the country." After listening to Bedwell's story, I said to her decisively.
"Don't worry, Lord Weigong, my subordinates have already issued a gag order." Bedwell nodded, "Unless the enemy commander is under the city of Camelot, the people will not notice anything unusual. ”
"That's good, Bedwell, you're doing a very good job." I breathed a sigh of relief and raised my thumbs up to Bedwell.
It has been difficult for the people to rekindle their confidence in the future, and this incident must not be allowed to have a negative impact on the whole country.
…………
"But at the end of the day, there's only a three-day buffer." Thinking of the situation facing Britain, Bedwell's face also became anxious, "The commander of the other party is so powerful that he has never seen it, I am afraid that only my king himself will have a chance to compete with him." It's just that the current king ......"
"You can't rely on Artoria for everything, it has nothing to do with her current state." I shook my head again and again, "It is absurd to put the fate of a country entirely on the shoulders of one person. ”
"The subordinates understand. But is there a better way to do it now? Bedwell's pupils struggled and swayed.
…………
"Of course." At this time, a particularly sexy and charming voice came from behind itself.
"Skaha-senpai?" Hearing the familiar voice, I turned my head in surprise.
Sure enough, a beautiful woman with purple hair and red eyes stood behind us, her arms crossed in front of her chest and a smile on her face.
…………
"Skaha-senpai, how is Artoria?" Seeing Skaha appear, I hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
If there is anything that can affect the heart the most at the moment, it is naturally Artoria's safety.
Just thinking of those beautiful and clear blue eyes, the boundless tension swelled endlessly in the body.
…………
"Lily is fine, she's asleep." Smiling at me, Skaha continued, "She also made a point of telling the imp not to worry about her. ”
"Oooh, that's great." The heart that had been hanging in mid-air suddenly fell to the ground, and it seemed to be much more relaxed all of a sudden.
"But speaking of which, Lily's sleeping face is really cute." Skaha's originally warm expression was mixed with a wicked smile, "If it weren't for today's special situation, I couldn't help but want to go up and pinch her face twice." ”
"Please spare Artoria." I couldn't stop crying or laughing.
…………
Sure enough, this is Skaha.
The two extremely different personalities of the saint and the demon, extremely contradictory but extremely harmonious, form the unique character of the Queen of the Shadow Country.
…………
“…… Lord Skaha, though I know it's rude to ask you a question......" Bedwell hesitated and stepped forward, his eyes looking earnestly at Skaha's majestic red pupils at the same time, "but...... Can you tell me why my king has become his current state? ”
"Even if you know, what can you do?" Skaha chuckled as he looked at Bedwell.
"I have no other intentions in the next place, I just want to share my king's worries!" Bedwell's eyes were firm, and there was a strong will in them that no one could change.
…………
“…… Well, I see. Nodding to Bedwell, Skaha turned to look in my direction, "You're curious, little ghost, too." ”
"It's a little bit ......," I admitted embarrassedly, touching the back of my head, "of course, if it involves secrets." ”
"That's not true, to put it bluntly, it's just a gap between thoughts." Skaha found a seat and leaned back comfortably, "but because of that, the matter itself became an unsolvable problem. ”
…………
Bedwell and I looked at each other, and we both saw confusion in each other's eyes.
What Skaha said was completely confusing.
"Little ghost, let me tell you this, the kings of this world who leave their names in future generations with their own clear will can be divided into two categories." Skaha held up an index finger in front of him, "The first is the conquerors who continue to invade and expand in order to achieve their ambition of hegemony, and the second type is the guardians who do their best to protect the land and its people until the end. ”
I didn't speak, calmly waiting for Skaha's next words.
"Guardian-type kings and conqueror-type kings have always been incompatible, and it is impossible for them to agree with each other's ideas." Skaha shook his head, as if sighing something, "Lily is no exception. ”
