Chapter 296: The sword and scabbard merge again
The war officially came to an end.
With Merlin's containment, Morgan had no way to resist, and was soon tied up and imprisoned.
The original Saxon king lost consciousness and was imprisoned, and his guards were scattered.
On the other hand, for the return of Ios, almost the entire Saxon is extremely happy, after all, the power of faith is still very strong, and the name of the descendant of the god of fire is enough to crush all doubts. Even a few old nobles who disobeyed were obedient after being frightened by Ios' ice dragon Fenrir.
At this point, the whole Saxon territory is completely under the control of Ios, and it is only a matter of time before he reigns over the territory.
"As you can see, Your Highness Morgan, it is impossible for Britain to be ruled by a person who has no ego at all, so even if you are accused of committing a crime, your subordinates must restrict your freedom." Lancelot bowed slightly and said to Morgan, who was gritting his teeth, "As for what to do with you later, my king will decide." ”
"Cut, there's no need to be so pretended, although I lost today, I won't obey you." Morgan glared at Lancelot fiercely, "If you have the ability, kill me, or sooner or later I will destroy Camelot!" ”
“……”
Lancelot frowned, and was about to say something.
"Come back, my friend." The girl stopped him with a loud voice, "For people who don't plan to talk, even if the reason is clear, it's useless." I'll make another decision on Morgan's disposition. ”
"Yes, my king."
Lancelot nodded vigorously and walked back to us.
"Shirou, and the Knight King, thank you for your great assistance to me." Ios walked up and looked at us gratefully, "If it weren't for the British forces, my brother would have been able to drag me to death even if he used the tactics of the sea of people to fight a war of attrition. ”
"It's nothing, it's the right thing to do to help a friend." I shook my head, "...... other"
"Don't worry, I know." Ios nodded knowingly, "I will send people to spread the cause and effect of this battle throughout Saxon." It won't be long before all the Saxons will learn that Britain's assistance was crucial, especially since the Knight King and your Lord Guard's insistence on justice and justice has contributed to the present prosperity. ”
"There's no need to add me later, it's enough to make Artoria's image shine in the Saxon." I shook my head and said, "Otherwise, it wouldn't be a legend of her alone, and it would have become confusing." ”
"Huh? That's not good. Ios's eyes widened, "You saved my life for the second time, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have died at the hands of Baixiang in the first place." Besides, you didn't contribute less than anyone else during the whole battle, how can you not leave your deeds......"
"Because...... I don't want to be famous......" I said with a wry smile, "and I won't be able to stand this life if I am recognized everywhere I go." ”
"Even if you say so, everyone has seen this battle." Ios sighed, "Even if you don't admit it, your reputation will spread all over the land." This kind of thing is involuntary. ”
"I have a solution." The girl next to me thought for a moment and said, "Although Shirou went out with the army, he basically didn't participate in direct confrontation, right?" And during the time he helped you fight against Hassan, there were only a few of you who knew about it. ”
"That is......" Ios thought.
"Just write him as my secretary, or as a deputy, a guard, or other less important position, and these people will not even have their names left as usual." The girl nodded, "As long as we both remain silent, no one will know about Shirou's existence." ”
"Hmm...... It's doable when you think about it. Ios held his chin and thought for a moment before saying, "But even though I respect Shirou's own wishes, is this really good?" I always feel like it's so unfair......"
"If there is nothing, I am very satisfied with this state." I reached out and patted him on the shoulder, smiling unconsciously, "All I want is to be with Artoria all the time, not to be famous." ”
"Whew...... What you want is simple. Ios glanced at me with some envy, "I think sometimes I need to learn from you, I have nothing to worry about all my life, and only stay with the people I love, this kind of happy and fulfilling life, probably even the gods can only envy and envy." ”
"Be your Saxon king, how can you reach the realm of Lord Weigong at will?" Bai Xiang raised his hand and pinched Ios's waist hard, "If you dare to steal and provoke the dissatisfaction of the people, I will personally punish you!" ”
"Ouch, pain, pain!" Ios's face contorted, baring his teeth and grinning, "Don't use so much effort, of course I will fulfill my duties and duties well, right?" ”
I shook my head at Ios' deferential look.
This guy seems to have just begun his days of suffering......
"Shirou, can we go back?"
The girl looked up at me and asked.
“…… Okay, we've been away from Camelot for a while, and if we don't go back, I guess other countries will really take advantage of it. I nodded, "Say goodbye to Ios and leave." ”
"Hmm."
The girl laughed silently, and the tenderness and trust in it were self-evident.
“……”
Even just looking at her smile warmed my whole heart.
However, her actions did not end there.
Standing on tiptoe slightly, the girl tilted her head and let her soft and smooth lips imprint on one side of my face.
"Hee-hee-"
By the time I could react, the girl had tilted her head slightly, looked at me with crooked eyes and smiled.
In her jewel-like beautiful eyes, there is no majesty and awe-inspiring in the eyes of others on weekdays, only love and attachment that are like endless lakes.
“——!”
Being stared at without blinking by such sincere eyes, even if I was prepared, I felt my heart skip a beat.
Boom!
Like the most beautiful musical instrument in the world, the sacred sword was held by a slender white hand and sent into the scabbard I held.
Suddenly, a strange sensation arose between the two of us.
"Now, the holy sword and the scabbard are finally truly one."
The girl held the hilt of the sword in one hand and caressed my shoulder and arm with the other.
"Well, we won't be separated from now on."
I smiled and nodded, reaching over my arm and gently wrapping my arms around the girl's slender neck.
Then I lowered my head, and the foreheads of the two of us pressed lightly together.
