Chapter 278: Holding Tea in Hand, Laughing at Disputes
"The will of my king, to gather all the knights of the Knights of the Round Table to defend against the attack of the Roman Empire!!" Bedwell, who had served King Arthur for many years, walked out of the palace hall and loudly conveyed Artoria's will. The knights in charge of delivering orders poured out of the palace gates and went to the knights' mansions to report the orders.
The knights had just returned to the royal capital from their journey to find the Holy Grail, and after receiving King Arthur's order, they all entered the palace to meet them.
Mordred was in the middle of the crowd, nervous and embarrassed.
The knights around him were visibly angry, looking back and forth, presumably looking for Mordred's traces. Mordred understood this because she was very pushy, and she knew that she had ruined the Holy Grail and caused many knights to return in vain.
[Hmm...... Well.........] Mordred cautiously walked among the knights. Today, Mordred deliberately dressed up in disguise before leaving, putting a lot of accessories on the outside of his armor, and the most iconic horn helmet was also wrapped in cardboard by Mordred like a barrel. Mordred was mixed in with the knights like this, probably because of the anger, and the knights didn't realize that there was an extra strange knight next to them.
"This knight is very familiar......," Knight Kai suddenly stopped, and looked at Mordred for a long time, but did not recognize Mordred's true face. It looked very familiar, but Kai racked his brains and couldn't remember who he (she) was, so he didn't care too much about it as an ordinary knight in the Knights of the Round Table.
Even if it is discovered, it will not be too surprising, after all, the Knights of the Round Table have such a large personnel base, and there are only a dozen or so people who are famous, including Mordred. Most knights are well-behaved, and it's normal to have a few riders you don't know.
"Wow!!" Mordred almost screamed at Kai's gaze, and she thought that her "perfect" disguise was about to be seen through by her brother-in-law.
[My memory, why is it so bad......] However, Mordred was not recognized by Kai, and after looking at Mordred for a long time, Kai said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, this knight brother, I forgot your name." Otherwise, the two of us introduce each other, and it can be regarded as acquaintance? ”
After speaking, Kai gave Mordred a simple salute: "I am the third seat of the Knights of the Round Table, the unruly knight - Kai, for a lot of advice!" ”
"Ah, that's fine, I've only just joined the Knights of the Round Table, so it's no wonder you don't know me." Mordred lied, but she wasn't too conscientious. Mordred has only been at the Round Table for a short time compared to other Knights of the Round Table, and there is nothing wrong with using the word "just".
"Then this knight, I have taken so much trouble to introduce myself, won't you tell me your name?" Kai asked a little complainingly, it was really rude to be like Mordred.
"Oh, ah...... Me......" Mordred was asked, she didn't think about being asked such a question before she went out, she was not prepared, how could this answer Kai?
"How did you become so distracted? Is there something unsightly about it? Kai's tone suddenly froze, and he became suspicious.
"No, it's not, my name is Saba, it's too ordinary, it's a little hard to say." Mordred said, the name casually made up is the homonym of saber, and Mordred did not hesitate to take the title that his father will have in the future as his fake name to cover up. Moreover, Mordred also worked as a Saber agent.
"I see you're all angry, is something going on?" Mordred asked knowingly, cleverly changing the subject.
"Oh, you're asking this~ Don't you know? The knights of the Knights of the Round Table were sent out in search of the Holy Grail, only to find it by a knight named Mordred who destroyed it for unknown reasons. Everyone's efforts have been in vain, and of course they will be angry. "Mordred said that he had just joined the round table, and Kai did not doubt that he had him, and explained to Mordred carefully." Hehe, I have long thought that Mordred is very skinny, but now it's okay, he can be cool. I don't think I can save him. ”
"Oooh, oh, oh." Mordred nodded his head as if he had listened...... That's weird! [Why am I so skinny?!! 】
"Ladies and gentlemen!!" Dagonit shouted, and the knights who were about to enter the palace gate stopped when they heard this. Dagonit said angrily: "Why don't we stay here, after all, our king has decreed, and Mordred will come to see him sooner or later." We're blocking here, and we're sure we'll be able to block her! Ask her to give us an explanation. ”
I can't complain that Dagonit is so angry, he usually pulls Artoria's tiger skin to pretend, and it is the first time that he "raises his arms" like this. Although Dagonite is usually a little villain, he is not very capable, he is just a strong ass to King Arthur's ass. This was despised by the Knights of the Round Table, but his loyalty to Artoria was unquestionable.
So when the knights went looking for the Holy Grail, Dagonit was the most aggressive one. The first to cross the Channel, even Dagonit, against all odds, traveled as far as the Holy See in Rome. He wished too much that the great monarch he served would be immortalized by the miracle of the Holy Grail. So after learning that Mordred had destroyed the Holy Grail, he was the one who reacted the most.
Well, although some people are a little flattering, this does not affect his loyalty. Just like the eunuchs in ancient China, they were definitely the emperor's most loyal subordinates. Although the eunuch will cholera court after gaining power, for example, it was a eunuch who accompanied Emperor Chongzhen to death when he hanged the coal mountain. And those ministers who claimed to be upright and gentlemen defected to the enemy one by one.
Dagonit's efforts to find the Holy Grail are seen by everyone, and his image has changed slightly. So this time, Dagonit's speech was surprisingly ridiculed.
"Whew~~~~" Mordred, who was mixed with the knights, let out a sigh of relief [Fortunately, Lao Tzu is witty, otherwise he would have paid it back? Escaped. 】
Mordred was almost ready for a teacup...... Then hold the tea in your hand and laugh at the disputes.
