"There are no additional arrangements." I said calmly.

Artoria is absorbing the dragon factor, and Skaha is going to teach Ios.

Therefore, I really don't have much to do in my free time.

…………

"So, this afternoon, can you exchange swordsmanship with your subordinates?" Lancelot said humbly, his eyes fixed on me.

"This ...... I'm sorry, but I haven't mastered the swordsmanship I learned with Artoria yet, so how about I have the opportunity to play it again in the future? "Without thinking, I wanted to say no.

…………

"Lord Weigong, my king's swordsmanship is indeed exquisite, and the entire round table is rarely matched. However, after all, that set of swordsmanship was researched by my king based on his own experience, so it is only suitable for my king himself. Lancelot didn't change his mind in the slightest, "According to the observations of your subordinates, your swordsmanship foundation has been solidified. Then the next most important thing is to constantly fight with others and form your own tricks. ”

"Don't worry, Lord Guard, Lancelot is only in charge of today, and tomorrow it will be my turn to fight you." Kai also walked up with a grin, "Then let my brother-in-law test whether your brother-in-law is qualified or not." ”

"And me, and me!" Ios jumped over, "Although you are second to Brother Kai, you guy has taken over all the beauties I can see, and I won't finish repairing you!" ”

…………

"You ......" I couldn't help but be surprised.

"Lord Weigong, take turns to fight with you, this is a decision made by a few of us in private during the departure of you and my king." Lancelot explained softly to me, "I'm sorry to hide your decision, but we agreed that this is the quickest way to improve your strength." ”

"This ......," I opened my mouth wide, not knowing what to say for a moment.

I never imagined that my companions would do it to this extent for me.

…………

"Lord Weigong, this is actually for my king. Although we all acknowledge your relationship with our king, if you are not strong enough, you will continue to face doubts from others in the future. I guess you don't want that. Kai's expression suddenly became serious.

I have to say that once he puts down his usual hippie smile, Kai is really a heroic young man, with an unconcealable spirit between his eyebrows.

"Hey, although it makes people angry when they mention it, but now the spiritual sustenance of the Knight King is Shirou you." Ios sighed as if he was in his throat, "So you must work hard, otherwise the glory of the Knight King will be dim in the future, and my hope of returning to the throne will be completely lost!" ”

…………

"you, just your performance, and you're back on the throne!" I laughed and cursed, and raised my foot to kick the pretentious teenager aside.

Ios has a rare talent for revitalizing the atmosphere in his own way, no matter how awkward the scene.

"Skaha-senpai, is this okay?" I asked Skaha.

"No problem, every day I only train with you in the morning. What you want to do in the afternoon depends on your mood. Skaha said nonchalantly.

…………

"Then everyone's kindness, I accept it." After adjusting my mood, I said solemnly to everyone, "I will definitely sum up the experience of fighting against you wholeheartedly, and strive to be independent as soon as possible." ”

All three smiled at the same time.

"Besides......" I said as I looked at Buck standing at the end, "Buck, you fight me on the last day." This workout should also have an effect on you. ”

“…… Thank you, Einomiya-sama. Buck's lips moved, but he didn't say anything and agreed.

…………

Shadow Nation Training Ground.

"Qiang ...... Qiang ......"

The sound of gold and iron resonating constantly echoed in the empty field.

"Hmm!"

The defense was a little slower, and I was kicked away by a kick from the opposite side.

Then I don't know how many times, and I fell hard to the ground.

…………

"Abominable ......"

Propping myself up with the sword in my hand and staggering to my feet, I repositioned myself towards the knight on the other side.

The knight didn't say anything, and rushed at me again.

Seeing this, I didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly fought with twelve points of spirit.

…………

This is the second time I've played the Knights of the Round Table, and the most famous of all, First Knight, Lancelot.

Compared to Bedwell, Lancelot is too much stronger.

First of all, every blow he hit was heavy and powerful, and I had to defend with all my might to barely fend it.

On the other hand, he swung his sword extremely fast, like a tidal wave.

Reaching this level of martial arts is simply incredible.

…………

"Goo!" Struggling to block the blow again, I tensed my nerves for the next move.

However, the other side suddenly stopped moving and slowly put the sword back.

"Lord Emiya, let's pause and rest for a while. Otherwise, you're about to lose your strength. As he spoke, Lancelot sat down on the floor in front of me.

"Whew...... Call...... Good. I gasped for breath and sat cross-legged on the ground with my legs, which were already shaking.

…………

We sat facing each other, and neither of us took the initiative to speak.

Lancelot...... Do you regret becoming a knight? ”

After a while, I thought of what Skaha had said about the knight's sinful karma, and I made up my mind to ask.

"Lord Weigong, my subordinates have never been confused." Lancelot said in a deep voice, "The sword in my hand has been sacrificed to my king, and this is the only way for my subordinates to survive. ”

"No, Lancelot, what I want to ask is your heart. It's not about duty, it's just about confirming your own thoughts. I added.

…………

"Your own ...... Ideas? Lancelot frowned and thought for a moment, "From the first day I joined the Round Table, my subordinates were proud to be a part of the Round Table. For we are ruled by the greatest knight king of all time. Our king is honest and upright, selfless, and leads everyone to move forward from beginning to end. Therefore, my subordinates have always felt that they are so lucky to be the knights of our king. ”

"Even during this time, is it necessary to keep taking innocent lives?" I asked bluntly.

…………

“…… Lord Emiya, you have reminded your subordinates of our king. As if triggering some kind of memory, Lancelot smiled softly, "After every tough victory, the knights will hold a banquet to celebrate their hard-won victory. However, at this time, our king would always quietly leave the table, and go alone to the cold city wall and look into the distance. ”

"Because of his quiet nature, his subordinates were incompatible with the lively banquet atmosphere, so they caught up with my king. My subordinates will never forget that my king looked at the city of Camelot at night and said to his subordinates, 'My friend, in addition to the casualties of our own soldiers, today another 1,324 innocent Saxons have died in a war that did not belong to them. ’”
