Chapter Fifty-Nine, Trivia
"That's too much, Mordred. Even heroes choose to take a different path when faced with insurmountable odds. Since she wasn't ready, it would be better to wait another day. It's not a big deal."
Just as Weaver could sense their thoughts to a certain extent, Nero sensed the fluctuations in Weave's heart.
Anger, unwillingness, longing
Motivation is useful in general, but it doesn't always work. If it just didn't work, Mordred's words were clearly counterproductive
"Nero. You're not a warlike king, are you?"
In the face of Nero's accusations, it was not Mordred who spoke out, but Achilles
"If I remember correctly, the ancient Roman emperor, Nero Claudius Drusus Germanicus, did not experience any war in his life. The only war you've been involved in is probably your final end, right?" The subtext is that Nero is inexperienced in combat
"Hmm...... So so what."
"This is a reason for the two armies to fight, and the strong retreat is only to regroup and choose the opportunity to fight again. And the retreat of the weak is only a rout. That's right, heroes in mythological epics sometimes hold back. But is she a hero? It is precisely because she is not a hero that I ask her to be indomitable, although she is not capable, she must challenge to the end, no matter what kind of enemy she is, and use her own will to overcome everything! That's the hero. But she still chose to cut corners."
Achilles shook his head. I have to say that Ori's withdrawal made him feel disappointed.
Nero was silent for a while, and then he spoke, "You are only talking about bravery."
"Brute Courage is also a hero in the early stages. For her, who has an immortal body, brute courage is the most suitable for her. Why don't we make a bet? Emperor, Emperor, Majesty?" Mordred said.
γβ¦β¦ Bet on what."
"Bet on whether she will dare to continue tomorrow."
β
Sitting in the living room, weaving distressed thinking about countermeasures.
She didn't know that her actions would be bet on tomorrow. Although she did have the idea of giving up after learning about the danger.
No, don't be cowardly
He is immortal, as long as he does not die, the Holy Grail War is not said to be nine times out of ten, and he is invincible from the beginning.
If you think about it, you can see it
Of course, the enemy Servant's targeting methods did make her feel troubled, but only to the extent of trouble. It's not difficult
Mordred's approach is also tempting, but let's not forget that it is also very dangerous. Although I was carried away by the feeling of not admitting defeat for a while, but after thinking about it carefully, no one knows if I will really be able to maintain myself once the channel is established. In this case, it should not be considered as the only option, but rather as a fallback. There are still many ways to go, and there is no need to hang yourself from a tree
Well, it's nice to be a "hero" though. Who wouldn't want to be a hero?
But if it was something that would have taken great danger to achieve, Ori would still choose to give up
No, Rin and Shirou's indomitable appearance is indeed handsome. Ori also admits that it is too biased to look down on them by virtue of their age
But I am different from them, and my goals are different
Your goal is just to survive, so you have a lot of options. Even if he forcibly leaves the country with Rin now, he can be regarded as accomplishing his goal
Hence the lack of motivation
There is no crisis that weighs on one's head, and there are no lofty ideals. In today's parlance, it's basically a salted fish
Hawkers,Although I promised Rin.,But well,It's an adult's patent to go back on your word? When necessary, Ori doesn't mind letting Rin get a taste of the dark side of society
Thinking like this, Ori expertly took out a can of wine from the refrigerator, absentmindedly buckled the pull tab andβ
"!!!Ahh The nails are lifted! β
Let me tell you, shattering a wall with one punch and jumping more than ten meters into the body of a heroic spirit, the thief is brittle!
Of course, the sharp pain in his hands caused Ori Shun to throw the unopened jar away
Coincidentally, the paper door of the living room was suddenly opened, and Saber, who was about to walk in, saw a UFO object smashing towards him
Of course, it's different from weaving that only has a Servant body and a weak chicken inside. Saber, who is a warrior both physically and mentally, naturally can't be touched by this kind of trick, even if she doesn't actually react, but people have an intuition!
Before his brain could react, his body had already drawn his sword and split the jar in two
But be careful...... There's still wine in the jar......
Saber was splashed with the slashed wine
Oriwa was glared at Saber, who had been sprayed in the face again
ββ¦β¦ If I say this is an accident, will you believe it? β
ββ¦β¦ This is the second time. β
"Hahahahaha...... That's really a coincidence~ How do you say that sentence? Edge, wonderful~" Weaving retreated in a cold sweat
Known conditions:
1. There is a person with a murder weapon in front of you
2. This person has gone through several battles, and countless people have died under her hands
3. You just poured a can of wine in her face
Q: How many seconds will it take for her to hack you to death.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Don't run, bear child! I promise not to hack you to death!! β
"Unfortunately, !!!"
P.s: Done. I've been working on the outline these days. I can only make do with something that is not nutritious first
P.s2: Let's talk about Saber's sword today. Caliburn and Excalibur
First of all, before talking about this sword, everyone should understand that the legend of King Arthur has actually undergone many rewrites.
Specifically, it's a bunch of bards who are blindly passing on jaguars. Some people think this is good, so they add it. The other thought it was good and added it. As a result, the current legend of King Arthur is very different from the original version.
And there are also French people making trouble. Let's take a closer look at the nationality of Lancelot. Yes, it's the French.
In the earliest Arthurian legends, there was no such person as Lancelot. But when the French bard saw it, he thought no, how could this legend not be French? And, let's not forget, France and England have a feud. So the French poet seized this opportunity to die for King Arthur of the Black Sea. First there was Lancelot, then there was an unjust duel that broke King Arthur's sword, and finally Lancelot slept with Arthur and his wife. The round table was full of rebellion. Tut-tut......
Straight to the point.
As you probably know, King Arthur had two swords, Caliburn and Excalibur. The Sword in the Stone and the Sword in the Lake. And readers who know a little bit will also know that these two swords actually only had one in the beginning.
Caliburnγ That is, the sword in the stone
It goes by many names, depending on the language, and is called Caledfwlch in Wales. In Cornwall it is called Calesvol, in Brittany it is called Kaledvoulc'h. The Latin word is Caliburnus.
In Geoffrey's The Legend of the Kings of Britain, it is stated that the sword was forged in Avalon. and Latinized the local "Caledfwlch" into Caliburnus
But this "Caledfwlch" is actually a variation of the name "Calad bolg", the legendary sword of Ireland
That's right, it's Xiao Gang's.
That's right, it's the one that Red A used to detonate.
2333333
No way, the two places are next to 23333, which is quite close
Then let's talk about Excalibur
Excalibur first appeared in the 12th century in French texts.
First it was Escalibor, then Excalibor, and finally Excalibur
Yes, that's right, Excalibur is always in French!
Imagine for yourself that the king of England is shouting in French......
Tut-tut, the French can't afford to mess with 23333
And in the French text of the time, Escalibor was Gawain's sword. That's right! So you know why Gawain's sword and Saber's sword in FATE are sister swords, right? It was originally Gawain's! It was only later added to Arthur!
Yu once saw UP in some FATE videos saying that Excalibur is broken steel in ancient Celtic language. Actually, there is no such thing at all.
Excalibur is French. So, since I said it earlier, Excalibur doesn't mean broken steel at all in the ancient Kellian language. So, why is it now called broken steel?
Here is the problem of the French blind Jaguar. After the first appearance of the sword Escalibor, the French poet triumphantly said that the name came from the Hebrew language. In French, it means "to cut off steel, iron, wood".
In reality, however, there is no such thing at all. It's all his own imagination. It can't be compared to Hebrew
As for why it means "to cut steel, iron, wood". Because in that original text it is "Escalibor hangs on his belt, which is the best sword, cutting steel like cutting wood"
"Qu'il avoit cainte Escalibor, la meillor espee qui fust, qu'ele trenche fer come fust (Old French)"
Later, in the hands of the English poet Thomas Mallory, he did not check it, but continued to use this statement. Thus, Excalibur means "broken steel"
So, ah, the French can't afford to mess with 233333
P.s3: Oh, there's one more. Readers in DND's circles probably know.
"ex calce liberare" is a Latin word meaning "to the stone".
Then let's take a look at "Excalibur" and "ex calce liberare".
What do you think? Does it feel like it?
Plus it means "to the stone...... Is this the etymology of "Excalibur"?
233333 is neither true nor true.
First, as mentioned above, Excalibur is in French. Even the evolution has been written for Ya
Second, Excalibur is not a sword drawn from a stone.
Well, even if you have to associate Excalibur with Caliburn, saying that they are a sword, and Caliburn is pulled out of a stone, so this Latin sentence holds...... However, friend, Caliburn is not a sword drawn from a stone either.
Please recall the Arthurian cartoons you watched as a child, or look at the painting of King Arthur drawing his sword. Arthur's sword was drawn by Merlin on the stone altar...... on the anvil!
