Chapter 314: Kai's Awakening
"Ah...... What about Lanelot, Queenie, and Lancelot? ”
I asked hurriedly.
"He's going to drink with those subordinates." Guinevere shook her head, "It's said that those soldiers may not survive much after the battle, so I want to show my responsibility as a boss for the last time." ”
"I see, Lancelot is really a great knight." I nodded.
The most valuable thing about Lancelot is that he is never limited by his position or class, but can really think from the perspective of everyone around him.
So gradually, everyone in Camelot let down their guard against him and accepted him sincerely.
With such qualities, it is no wonder that he was able to become the greatest and most well-known representative of knighthood in later generations.
"Yes, his heart is far bigger than ordinary people, and he has always been my pride." Guinevere smiled and nodded slightly, "Don't talk about him, Lord Weimiya, aren't you with the king?" At this time, you will never be alone outside. ”
"Actually, I just ......"
I sighed, and told Guinevere the truth about what had happened.
"Hmm...... What is on the king's mind? It's strange that nothing like this has happened lately. Guinevere thought about it, and also showed a thoughtful expression.
"Did anything happen in the few days I wasn't at Camelot?" I shook my head and asked.
For half a month, Artoria and I have been getting along day and night, and if something happened to her, there is no reason why I don't know.
And if you go any further, nothing special happens.
So if you think about it, it can only be that during my three days in Saxon, Camelot had an unknown change.
"Those days...... So I really don't know. I'm sorry, Emiya-sama. "During that time, you were not there, and the king closed himself in the palace every day, and there was no one for a whole day. ”
"Artoria she...... Is this how every day is spent? Hearing this, there was a pain in my heart, "In the twenty years that I was away, was she always alone?" ”
"Hmm...... That's why I've always felt that it's great that you, Lord Emiya, can be by the king's side. Guinevere nodded lightly, "Only by your side will the king show that heartfelt relaxed smile, and the solemn appearance of weekdays is like the two of them." ”
"So, if you just tell me something, and then take it together......" I sighed, "It's so inexplicable, it's really reassuring." ”
"Lord Weigong, do you believe in the king?"
Guinevere looked at me for a moment, then asked suddenly.
"Of course, it's just why do you ask?" I couldn't help but look at her.
"Since you believe in the king, don't worry." Guinevere shook her head and said, "The king must have had her own ideas and thought that she could solve it with her own ability, so she didn't alarm you. ”
"What's more, the king's heart for you is complete and pure. She will never hurt you. In that case, you might as well give her some time. If things can be solved, it will be great, and if they can't be solved, she will naturally tell you. ”
"You're right, it's messed up if I care." Taking a deep breath, I felt a lot calmer in my heart, "Thank you Guinevere, if it weren't for your enlightenment, I guess I wouldn't know what to do until now." ”
"Lord Weigong, you just love the king too much, that's why you're like this." Guinevere looked at me softly and smiled, "You don't want her to be wronged a little, and you always want to be by her side to protect you." But you must understand that the king is not a child, and she still has the most basic judgment in her heart. So you might as well not be so serious, and let the king have a little personal space for her. ”
"I see."
I nodded, and watched as Queenie returned to the house.
——
On the way back, the cool night breeze blew the ends of my hair.
The originally somewhat hot mind was also cooled down a lot under the guidance of Guinevere's words.
Perhaps, I should have put more trust in Artoria.
If you trust her completely and unreservedly, and believe that she can handle the problem independently, it doesn't matter.
But......
Did she, who had hidden something from me, fully trust me?
——
Early the next morning.
When I got up and opened the door, I saw a girl standing outside.
"Good morning Shirou, let's get ready to head to the plaza. Everyone should be about to assemble. ”
When she saw me, she had the same soft and warm smile on her face. The blonde hair is even more dazzling in the early morning sun.
Her body was already dressed in neat armor. Solemn and solemn, the temperament is tall and awe-inspiring.
"Well, I know. Now let's go. ”
Nodding, I smiled and rubbed the girl's hair, then went out and closed the door and walked side by side with her.
"Shirou, let me tell you...... This morning, Vivien actually turned my collar into a wine jug, and I was so angry that I chased her all the way. On the way, the girl began to complain to me, "She seems to like to be chased by me, and she can easily escape with magic, but she is laughing and running around." ”
"Haha, I'll talk about her next time." I couldn't help but laugh.
No matter how you look at it this morning, Artoria is no different from usual. There is no difference in tone or demeanor.
Last night was just a momentary gaffe...... Probably.
——
"Your Majesty, Lord Weigong!"
In the square, Lancelot bowed to us.
Probably because we arrived too early, there were only Lancelot and a few knights on the field.
After saying hello, we casually chatted about topics that had nothing to do with the current war.
A moment later, with the constant sound of footsteps, Kay and Bedwell were seen coming with an army.
"Your Majesty, Lord Guard! Sorry for the late arrival, but you have been waiting for a long time! ”
When Bedwell saw us, he immediately showed an uneasy expression and bowed his head in apology.
"You can see it clearly, Lord Wei Gong and the king came before you." Kai Siwei was even more lively, and said to the new Round Table Knights behind him, "I actually asked them to wait for you all the time, and you have to be more diligent in the future!" ”
The new members of the Knights of the Round Table bowed their heads in shame.
They are all brothers and heirs of the previous generation of Knights of the Round Table in the era of the Knight King. Although they inherited the name, most of them were nobles who had little experience. It's not pampered, but it's not too tenacious.
Kai's words were meant to warn them.
