Chapter 46: The Banquet of the Three Kings (Part II)
"So, that game was awesome! I didn't expect that only a few years have passed.,Human beings have developed to such a point......" The topic was unconsciously brought to a strange place by the king of conquest, and it seems that she hasn't been all idle these days, at least about playing games This kind of thing is very self-taught.
The rapid development of the world has almost changed the scenery in the memories of the heroic spirits into a different look. Forests have been cut down, wastelands have been cultivated, and modern cities have been unimaginable to people living in ancient times. This made Rider's tone both a little lonely, but more full of endless pride, "But that's why I'm so desperate to get a human body!" It would be a shame not to be able to complete my own conquest in this world! β
"Then the purpose of your seizure of the Holy Grail is to be able to live again as a human being?" Holding the wine glass in the palm of his hand, Ye Yu turned his head to the King of Conquest, who was a little red because of the wine, and asked, "Conquest, hegemony, this kind of thing, is it so interesting?" β
"Little brother, you don't understand......" There was no dissatisfaction with Ye Yu's questioning, on the contrary, she turned her face and approached Ye Yu's side, and explained to him with a drunken smell, "Conquer everything you see in front of you, and then share the beauty you get with your friends, isn't it a pleasure to live freely and drink freely?" β
"Hmph, it's just a tyrant......" Drinking into her throat, even with the usual self-discipline of the Knight King, after drinking this drink that was enough to worship the gods, she was still a little drunk, so she didn't speak as restrained as before, and she finally couldn't help but be sarcastic in the face of the Conquest King, which was completely contrary to the righteousness in her heart.
"What about tyrants? At least while I am in power, I can guarantee that my loyal subordinates and those who are willing to follow me will have the joy of living! Isn't that enough?! Saber's provocation seemed pediatric enough to Iskandar, but she had no reason to swallow it at all, "You...... What about your reign, little English girl? β
"I ...... Hum! Saber tried to refute something, but the glory of the Knight King made her disdain to do so. In fact, although King Arthur won a series of battles during his reign, her people were not happy at that time. Years of war, famine, natural disasters, and religious oppression, even if the war is won, what can we do?
After all...... Saber had chosen to use the sword to protect her subjects, rather than sheath it......
Saber's face was unhappy, and it was a brief admission of her predicament, and seeing that the rider didn't mean to continue to fall into the well, he changed the topic and continued to ask, "Speaking of which, Saber...... What is your purpose in capturing the Holy Grail? Since you are involved in this war, you must have a desire to realize it. β
"I ......," Saber's voice paused, "I'm going to erase history!" If I hadn't pulled out that sword in the first place, I would have ...... Nothing is going to get this bad. β
"Hah...... This is the funniest joke this king has ever heard! Before Rider could speak, Jill who was dangling his glass there was amused by this answer, "King Saber heard me right...... Do you deserve to be called a king?! β
"Your Excellency! Please watch your words and do not be so rude to our king! Before Jill's words fell, Saber, who was immersed in sad memories and couldn't extricate himself for a while, didn't remember to refute anything, and the knight, who had been sitting there without drinking a drop of wine and always being strict with himself, stepped forward first. While protecting Saber behind his back, he also coldly warned Jill that his skillful movements had obviously been repeated countless times before.
"What a loyal knight...... Jill raised his hand to drink the wine from the cup, then glanced at Saber with his eyes, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a mocking smile, "In the face of such a knight, Saber...... Are you still going to erase everything about your past? β
"When...... Correct! Saber glanced at Lancelot in front of him, and the expression on his face could be described as complicated. She couldn't think of a reason why Lancelot would do that, and if he was really loyal to him, then he was ......
If it hadn't been for those things back then, maybe ......
At the thought of this, Saber's hesitant face returned to firmness, "As long as I don't pull out that sword, then everything will change!" Whether it's my country, my people...... Even the fate of me and my friends will change! β
Saber's decision changed Lancelot's face, and he knelt down on one knee in Saber's direction, but Saber only bit his lip and left his previous position, leaning against the wall as if he were out of place.
"That's interesting...... I actually saw a king who denied his past, look at you now! It's like a little girl who can only cry her nose! Jill stood up excitedly, and a Ye Yu looked at Saber so forcefully, "The so-called king!" Allow arrogance, allow brutality, it doesn't matter if it's a good-for-nothing king!
The greatest significance of the king's existence is to allow others to follow! As long as the king leads his people according to his own ideas, and can let them see the way forward at all times, he is a qualified king! But what about you? saberοΌ Your knight is still kneeling there, and you actually dodged it yourself?! What kind of king are you? β
"What do you know?" Jill's unceremonious inference made Saber angry, and no one had ever accused her so much since she was a child, "I have fought more than a hundred wars, large and small, leading my people from victory to victory. I tried my best to give the people the last stability in that troubled time, and I did everything I could to do so! But in the end? I am the one who has been betrayed!
My knights have left me, and my people accuse me of not understanding the hearts of men! But what do they want me to do? Tell me, archer! I fulfilled my duty to protect my country, but in the end, it was inevitable that my country would be thrown into chaos again. I didn't understand what they wanted, and I did everything I could, and it turned out like that......
So...... If I didn't exist in the first place, then it would be the best......" (To be continued.) )
