Chapter 1011: A Distant Dream
"Bell. ”
Blood red rendered the earth, the smoke of gunpowder filled the battlefield, the sword in the king's hand, rubbing into brilliant fireworks, with the continuous sacrifice of the soldiers, looking at the similar face with crazy hatred on the other side, Leah's calm eyes gradually flooded with a trace of waves.
"What's the matter, Father, the sword in your hand doesn't seem to have any power, can this be called King Arthur? Can you be called a legendary king? Don't laugh at the dead. Mordred's sword danced rapidly, each swing causing the blade to make a piercing scream in the air, defeating Leah and gaining the upper hand.
The bitterness in Leah's heart was incomprehensible to Mordred, and at this moment Leah wanted to stand in front of her as a father rather than being a king.
But ah.
Looking at the blade that struck at a rapid speed again, Liya gently closed her eyes, and her restless heart was once again calm due to the war.
I have come into this world at a loss. ’
With a near-predictable intuition, Leah only took a slight half-step back to dodge Mordred's ferocious greatsword.
'Growing up in a dream, he pulled out the sword in the stone in the dream, and became a king in a dream. ’
Even though she can't see with her eyes, Leah's control over her surroundings is far greater than usual.
Because I have an established history that no one else knows, and the memory of heaven and earth, I thought that I could break that established destiny and become a different King Arthur from history. ’
Without looking with her eyes, with her near-predictable intuition, Leah raised the golden sword in her hand to easily block Mordred's attacking greatsword, and then used her strength to knock Mordred back a few steps.
However, in the end, it was found in sorrow that no matter how hard he tried and how he changed, the fate in the dark was quietly pushing the future in the right direction of history. ’
He took out the sword of the chosen king from the void that decided his fate, the sword of the king that shone with golden light, and the knightly sword that entwined the wind spirit, held it on both hands, and slashed towards Mordred with unrivaled swiftness and power.
Yes, a lot has changed and gained a lot during this time, but in the end it is more painful to lose. ’
The power of the holy sword was irresistible, let alone two, as if it were taken for granted, Mordred was hit by the huge force carried by the sword and flew upside down.
However, when the road comes to an end, look back at the road behind you, when you reach the pinnacle of life and the world, look down on the world, and taste the joys and sorrows. ’
Although Mordred has a talent that is no less than or even surpasses Leah, and she works hard, after all, her realm is still inferior to Liya, not to mention that she does not have a weapon that can compare to the Holy Sword.
So, inevitably, I fell deep into the red dust. ’
The double swords swung again, with a dazzling golden light, pierced the space with a stabbing sound, and slashed the knight's heavy sword in Mordred's hand. The mystery of the holy sword has long been beyond the ability of mortal iron, even the famous sword in Mordred's hand, which is known as indestructible, is still as fragile as tofu under the holy sword in Lia's hand.
Yet, even if I knew it, I was already in it and could not extricate myself, even if I had achieved what was called a miracle, even if I had been favored by the elves, I still could not escape it. ’
So, I think it's okay even if I'm trapped, because in this mortal world, I already have my own bonds, bonds that cannot be broken. ’
Swinging the holy sword in his hand again, he slashed at several knights who wanted to come to the aid of Mordred, and there was no accident, under the light of the holy sword, no one was spared.
And with the bond, it is natural to want to protect it, so if someone wants to break this bond, even the closest person will not be spared. ’
Suddenly opened his eyes, the holy green pupils were full of determination, and he looked at Mordred full of murderous intent: "Mordred, even you can't. ”
'King Arthur didn't understand human feelings?'
No, she knows feelings better than anyone else, and cherishes feelings more than anyone else, so she has to hide herself and make herself look stronger than anyone else, because in this way she can better protect this relationship and bond.
"Oh, are you finally getting serious? King Arthur? No, Father. Mordred looked at Leah now and chuckled.
"Are you ready? I'm going to give it my all. Leah looked at Mordred in front of her and said without a trace of emotion.
"It was ready three years ago, come on, Father. Mordred picked up a knight's heavy sword again and stood in front of him.
Liya didn't speak, but raised the holy sword in her hand with both hands and rushed forward again.
bang
With a roar of steel clashing, Mordred took a few steps back, then steadied himself and swung his greatsword at Ria again.
Tear pull
The sound of her body tearing sounded, and she saw that Mordred's arm was cut by a sharp sword, and blood was flowing from the wound.
"Well, my dear father, I don't feel good without Avalon, even if I am injured, I can't recover immediately. Mordred said as she covered the wound on her arm and looked at Leah with a smile on her face.
"I see, did you steal my scabbard?" Hearing this, Lia just nodded calmly, not even glancing at the wound on her body that was exchanged for a wound by Mordred, but just raised the holy sword in her hand to attack again.
"Do you think you'll be able to kill me by stealing my scabbard?" asked Lea, looking at Mordred, as she attacked like a raging storm.
"I don't know, but I know that you don't have a scabbard, and I have a chance to kill you, but if you still have a scabbard, then my chances of killing you are zero. ”
"So do you think you still have a chance to kill me?" asked again as Leah's holy sword in her hand pressed against Mordred's heart
Holy Britain is the place of rebellion throughout the country.
"It's over. Gawain stood on the high pile of corpses, ignoring his wounds, looking at the rising dawn, and said with a smile.
The battle lasted for several days and nights, and it was finally coming to an end.
"It's over, I don't know what's going on over there?" Swinging his sword to kill the last rebel beside him, Kai looked into the distance as if he was thinking about something, and didn't notice the sneak attack of the enemies behind him, maybe he had already exhausted his energy, and he no longer had the strength to turn around.
'Bang. Garevin, who fell to the ground, looked at the morning light on the horizon, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
'Boom, boom. Ranmaroke, riddled with arrows, seemed to have no senses, slashing through the crowd like a robot wielding his sword, until the last enemy fell, and the faithful knight fell into the battlefield with a pleasant smile.
"The strongest is always the Knight of the Round Table. With an angry shout, the sound of two swords intersecting and piercing **, Tristan looked at the fallen knight and continued with pride: "King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table. ”
"The strongest is always King Arthur"
"King Arthur"
"King Arthur"
"Forever watching over you, my king. ”
The Knights of the Round Table, scattered across the country, chanted in unison, the faith in their hearts, calling for the title of king
'Tear Pull'
With the sound of ** tearing, Leah fell into silence and sluggishness.
"Father, you see, I did it, didn't I?"
Listening to Mordred's smug voice, Leah silently looked down at the sword on her abdomen, the sharp pain in her abdomen constantly pounding her nerves.
"Yes, you did. Looking at Mordred's face that was close to her own, Leah's expressionless face suddenly showed a gentle smile.
"Finally, we can finally live with my mother and father again, we must still be able to meet in another world, right?" Mordred asked as she looked at Leah in a faint voice.
She didn't expect Mordred to choose this method of ending up together, looking at the holy sword that pierced directly through Mordred's chest, Leah stretched out her hand and stroked Mordred's cheek very gently, and replied softly: "Yes, Elena, we will definitely meet again in another world, and then we will live happily ever after." ”
Hearing this, Mordred fell softly into Leah's arms, hugged Leah's waist tightly with her hands, and kept muttering to herself: "Thank you, thank you father, thank you"
Holding Mordred gently with both hands, listening to Mordred's muttering in her arms, the corners of Lia's mouth hooked up a smile: "Yes, it's all over, is this a new beginning? ”
"King"
The knight shouted unwillingly, ignoring the spear that came at him, and ran towards Ria covered in blood, and when he arrived, it was Mordred's sword that pierced Riah's abdomen, and although he was so unwilling, it was to no avail.
'Thorny'
The sharp pain from the long sword that ran through the abdomen made Leah wake up, looking at Mordred who had closed her eyes in her arms, Lia gently stroked the other party's long hair, put her head to the other party's ear and whispered: "Elena, sleep well, when you wake up again, there will be no more sadness, and you will be happy forever." ”
"King"
The knight stepped forward quickly to support the weakened king, and looked at her with concern as he watched the blood that kept spilling from the king's abdomen.
"Not really, Beddie Well. Covering the wound in her abdomen, Leah looked at the teary-eyed knight and chuckled.
However, in the eyes of the knight, that smile was very, very warm, a warmth that the knight had never seen.
"Why, King, why?" the knight asked in a low voice, bowing his head, "Why did you choose to do this, when you could have avoided it just now?"
The knight asked sadly, because with the knight's understanding of the king, with the king's reaction and speed just now, even if he couldn't completely dodge it, it would not be possible to cause this kind of fatal injury, but why didn't the king choose to dodge?
"Bedwell, I want to kill the betrayed Mordred because of my protection, but at the same time, they are also the most important people I want to protect, as the price of not protecting them well, isn't it just right?" said the king with an unusually gentle smile as he looked at the sad knight.
The knight was stunned for a while, because it was the first time he had seen such a gentle smile in the decades he had been with the king, which couldn't help but make the knight think in his heart, maybe this is the best ending.
Isn't it the end of the king's battle, and the king's peace at last, as he had always hoped for?
But why do you feel unwilling, why do you feel unworthy for the king?
That's right, because the king hasn't been rewarded yet, he has paid so much for the country and the people, and he has been fighting for the country, but in the end he has not received anything, is this fair?
Therefore, the knight refused the king's death, and the king had not received anything, how could he die like this?
"Wang, you will be fine, I will take you back to the imperial capital immediately, where there will be someone who can cure you." ”
"Well, don't lie to yourself, Betty Well, ahem. Coughing up a mouthful of blood, Leah said weakly, "I know the extent of my own injuries, and I can't recover from the loss of Avalon." ”
"Don't say anything, king, you can be cured. Bedwell had tears in his eyes, and this man, who would not cry even in pain, finally couldn't help crying at this moment.
"Don't cry, take me away, Bedwell, to the ideal land away from the hustle and bustle. "That's what I agreed with the elves, and one day, when I am about to leave this world, the door of the elven country will be open for me, and it will be my eternal resting place.
"As you wish, my king. Wiping the tears from her eyes, Bedwell helped Leah onto her horse, then straddled herself on her horse, raised her whip, and ran towards the elven land.
The horses galloped so fast that the wind hurt on their faces.
What did you do when you came to this world?
What is the meaning of the things that are sworn to protect?
What is my purpose?
I don't know, I'm so tired, maybe it's good to get some sleep.
It's just that I miss you, 'Gnevere' and 'Gwynaville'.
"Are you willing to sign a contract with me and become my Heroic Spirit?"
Just in the girl's trance, there was an indifferent female voice in the distant sky, it was a very magnificent sound, not how loud the sound itself was, but the source of the sound itself was very intriguing, as if it was the sound of the world.
Moreover, this voice, Liya felt familiar.
"You, are you here to pick me up?" Looking up to see that Bedwell was not affected by the voice, Leah could probably guess that the voice was just speaking to herself.
"Well, the previous purpose has been achieved, and now I will pick you up. The voice spoke, answering Leah's question.
"Gaia, please allow me to refuse. Leah replied softly.
"Huh, why?"
The voice suddenly became very surprised and overwhelmed, as if it was taken aback by Leah's answer.
"Because, I'm so tired, I already want to rest. ”
"However, you are the 'King who exists in the past and is resurrected in the future', and in the 'future that is predetermined to happen', you will make a pact with me before you die, and you will travel through time and space in the form of a heroic spirit in search of the Holy Grail, and when you receive the Holy Grail, you will become truly dead and become a heroic spirit. Until then, time in your world will stand still, and your time will be out of the timeline of history. ”
"But now that you refuse to become a heroic spirit, isn't the established history a mess?"
Leah smiled when she heard this, she could already imagine how the owner of the voice would be jumping at this time.
"You, have you really decided?" After waiting for a while, seeing that Lia did not answer, the voice asked again.
"Well, it's decided. Liya nodded lightly without hesitation.
I'm really tired.,I've fulfilled my vow.,I've dedicated this body to all the things I guard.,There's no regret.,So please let me take a good rest.,I'm tired of this world.。
"In that case, do as you wish. The voice didn't say anything, just a flat voice that came into Lia's ears and disappeared.
Hearing this, Liya was a little puzzled, she didn't expect Gaia to be so easy to talk to, after all, she didn't keep her promise and broke their original agreement, but she didn't expect Gaia to let her go so easily.
However, Leah didn't think much about it, after all, she was already a person who was about to die.
Constantinople.
"Father" Yuyan stood on the high city wall, looking at the direction of the sword railing, muttering to himself, but tears flowed down involuntarily.
In the haze, Leah saw Gnavier, standing with Mordred, waving to her with a gentle smile on her face, and Mordred was running towards her as fast as she had been a child, with a happy smile on her face and a constant cry of 'Father' on her lips.
"Gnavier"
On the other side, among the flowers full of flowers, Gwynaville, dressed in white, stood in the blooming Mo Shang flowers, and the whole person was as quiet and beautiful as a fairy in the world.
After seeing Leah, she waved her hands happily with a quiet smile on her face, and then danced among the flowers, as if to welcome Leah's return.
The flowers on Mo are blooming, and they can be slowly returned!
The flowers on Mo are blooming again, and they are waiting for someone to come
"You sit down and rest first, and then call the soldiers right away. Bedwell slowly helped Artoria to sit under the tree,
"Bedwell"
The king, who should have been unconscious, called out the knight's name at this time.
Leah slowly opened her eyes and looked at her loyal knight.
"Are you awake, king?"
"Well, I had a dream"
"Dream," the knight asked in surprise.
"Well, because I rarely dream, it's a very valuable experience. Leah said, looking at the shaded sky.
"Really? So please relax and relax. Bedwell looked at the feeble king under the tree. "If you close your eyes again, you'll be able to see the continuation of your dreams."
"Can you see the same dreams?" asked Leah, looking at Bedwell with hope in her tone.
Gritting his teeth, Bedwell uttered something that even he knew was false: "Yes, Wang, I have had such an experience, and if you think about it strongly, you will definitely be able to see the same dream." ”
The knight bowed his head so that the king could not see his expression.
For the first and last time, the knight lied to the king, but the knight did not regret it, for he knew that it would make the king happy in his last days, and that would be enough.
"Yes, you are so knowledgeable, Beddie Verde. Artoria looked at Bedwell and said with emotion.
"Beddie Well, this time I may sleep a little longer. The girl finished calmly and closed her eyes quietly.
The sunlight sprinkled on the girl's body through the gaps in the leaves, as if wearing a layer of gilded thin sand on the girl's body, so that the girl was bathed in colorful glow, like a rising goddess.
Bedwell looked at the girl like a sleeping girl, without saying a word, just quietly looking at the king who had finally found peace.
The battle of the king is over, the battle of the maiden named 'Artoria' is over, but the battle of the country is not over, it will be plunged into endless chaos.
However, this was enough, and the king was at peace, and was able to fall asleep without trouble.
Although, in the end, the king was not rewarded, but the knight felt that it was enough, because the knight felt how gentle the king was at the last moment, and at that moment he felt emotions that he had never felt in the previous king.
The smile at that moment was gentleness that I had never seen before
Isn't this the kind of king he has been looking for in his heart?
At this moment, he was grateful from the bottom of his heart to the man who had given the king peace
The sky was high, and the sun had already risen completely, and the sun shone on the battlefield strewn with corpses, dispelling the gloom of death.
The breeze blows, bringing with it the sound of the leaves, and the birds and beasts chirping, as if they are mourning for death.
"Are you watching? King Arthur"
The morning light shone on the body, as if bathed in holy light
The king who fell into a deep sleep was like falling into the endless blue
"That far, far away dream"
