Chapter Ninety-Two: The Knight and the Wine Cup

Looking at the scene in front of them, the knights froze for a moment, completely unsure of what to do.

"Wang ...... Forgive me, Your Majesty! It was only after a while that a knight fell to his knees and stammered.

And with him taking the lead, all the knights knelt on the ground in unison, and kept saying words of reflection in their mouths.

…………

"You bastards! I was worried that you would talk nonsense on the road, and sure enough, such a shameless joke actually dared to be made in private?! Bedwell stepped forward angrily and angrily rebuked the knights kneeling on the ground, "Just let my king and Lord Weigong see today who you so-called knights of the round table are, the pillars of Camelot!" ”

"Bedwell!" I raised my hand to stop the knight from continuing, "Forget it, they didn't mean to. ”

"Yes...... But Lady Emiya, didn't you hear what they were saying? Bediwell bowed his head respectfully, but his tone did not soften at all, "I dare to ...... in front of you and my king."

"No, Artoria and I didn't get an invitation in the first place. It's us who come uninvited. I shook my head, "As a guest, how can you accuse the host of the banquet of being wrong?" You go to the side first. ”

…………

“…… Yes, Emiya-sama. Bedwell gritted her teeth and stood quietly against the wall.

Before retreating, she glared at the knights as if their actions were completely unforgivable.

Seeing this, the bodies of all the knights trembled slightly.

…………

"Ladies and gentlemen, we want to join you in the banquet, I wonder if we can?" I looked at one of the older knights of the Round Table kneeling at the front, and laughed.

"When...... Of course. The knight didn't dare to look up at all, and his voice trembled, "Lord Emiya...... It was our pleasure to be involved with the king. ”

The many knights behind him also nodded in unison, for fear that their behavior would be a little out of line and violate some taboo.

…………

"Thank you very much." I smiled and pulled the blonde girl out of the way that had been hiding behind me, "Altoria, don't forget that we're here to have fun with everyone tonight, get rid of all your worries!" ”

"Hmm...... Shirou was right. Even so, the girl's arm grabbed the corner of my coat tightly, and I don't know how many times it took her to barely show her head.

The knights' heads suddenly drooped lower.

…………

"Alright, alright, tonight we're just two guests who have joined in for the fun: the civilian guard Shirou and the knight Artoria." I took the girl's hand and sat down at a table where no one was around, "Let's get up, everybody." Don't think too much, just be happy! ”

"Yes, Eimiya-sama." Seeing that the girl beside me did not refute, the knights got up one after another in shock.

The eyes that secretly looked at me were full of doubts and puzzles.

Obviously, in terms of my tone and performance, it was very different from Camelot's usual strict abstinence style.

…………

Slowly, the knights all sat back in their seats. It was only because of what had just now that they almost all sat motionless, and did not dare to utter the slightest word.

That's not going to work, I frowned slightly. Originally, it was to make Artoria and the knights under her command more intimate to participate in this banquet, but I am afraid that it will only backfire if it continues.

After thinking about it, I decided that it would be better to find a way to liven up the atmosphere again.

…………

"Speaking of which, today should not be a grand festival, and I don't have the impression of winning a decisive battle." I looked around at the knights and said, "So can you tell us what the feast is for?" ”

The knights looked at each other as if they wanted to say something.

"Well, if it's inconvenient to say it, forget it. I didn't mean to question everyone. I laughed a little and was ready to skip the topic.

"Lady Emiya!" Suddenly, a young knight suddenly looked up at me, "All of us have gathered here today to celebrate the safe return of the king and the Guardian Palace!" ”

…………

"Huh?!" The girl and I were surprised at the same time.

"Because...... Lord Bedwell said that you and the king risked your lives to go to the Shadow Nation in order to find a way to unlock the spells of the three dragon slayers' families......" Now that he had spoken, the young knight also had the courage to finish his words in one breath, "Every member of our round table admires you and the king's righteousness, and prays day and night to the gods they worship, and looks forward to your return day and night. Now that their wish has come true, everyone is excited and has decided to hold a banquet here to make their wishes to the gods! ”

"Original...... That's right. Half of the girl's body was fully exposed, and the eyes of the knights in front of her became complicated.

…………

"Haha, so I was able to merge with the Artoria Society and get the antidote, thanks to you." I smiled and picked up the wine glass on the table, "Come, I'll give you a glass!" ”

"Lord Emiya, this is just what we should do, how dare you do this?" The knights were so shocked that they wanted to excuse themselves again and again.

I just smiled and drank the wine from my glass.

This Western alcohol must not be very high, and even I, who had never drunk before, felt not very stressed. Aside from a little bit of spiciness, it's not a problem at all.

…………

"Lord Emiya, please forgive your subordinates for offending ......"

Seeing that I had already taken the initiative to drink the wine in the glass, the knights who had no choice had no choice but to raise their glasses one by one to cooperate with me.

"Shirou, drink less." The blonde girl gently pushed my body and persuaded me.

"Rest assured, I'm sober now. I'll stop when I'm not feeling well! I reached out and gently combed a few strands of the girl's forehead and comforted her.

"Hmm...... Forget it, anyway, Shirou will know that he is powerful after getting drunk once! The girl pouted and twisted her body, "There will be no one to carry you back to your room when you are lying on the ground!" ”

It's not so unbearable! I smiled wryly.

…………

With this glass of wine, everyone's relationship has been invisibly pulled in a lot.

"Lord Emiya is here, tell us about the Shadow Country!" There were already bold knights beckoning at me not far away.

"Okay, I'm also worried that there is no one to share the experience along the way, wait for me to pass." Smiling at the other side, I turned my head to look at the girl on the side, "Artoria, do you want to go over together?" ”

"Shirou go by himself, I don't want to be involved in this kind of noisy conversation." The girl snorted and deliberately didn't look at me, as if to blame me for not listening to her.

On the other hand, her personality is indeed very quiet, and it is normal that she is not suitable for a noisy occasion such as a banquet.
