178 Marriage Contract, Revealed Secrets
"Tomorrow is the decisive battle, after which Britain will end a long period of civil strife and darkness, and here I thank you for your efforts." Artoria looked at the twelve knights in front of her and said, her body leaning slightly, expressing her gratitude to them: "I can't finish this in a year without your help, thank you." ”
"For Britain." The twelve knights present saluted at the same time.
"Then let's stop here today, tomorrow at noon is the decisive battle, you have a good rest tonight, and when the war is over, I will drink the wine in the cup with you until dawn, God is equal to me!"
"God is equal to me!" The twelve knights left the room, but as they left, they all looked involuntarily at the black armor in the corner, and although the strange red light in the slit of its helmet did not appear at this time, everyone still felt that he was watching him.
When everyone left, the door of the conference room was closed, and the black armor raised her head, and the red light appeared, staring at the girl who was staring at the map in front of her and constantly reasoning about the direction of tomorrow's war: "You have already decided?" Married to Gnavier..."
"Yes, I'll marry Gnavier when the battle is over tomorrow, that's what I promised." Artoria did not look up, she placed a chess piece on the map, the position of this chess piece was behind the enemy army, and this force would be led by her to storm the enemy camp in the area.
"You're a woman..."
"Before I was a woman, I was a king...!" Artoria raised her head to look at the Black Knight, her tone was full of determination, she was no longer a simple woman from the moment she drew the sword in the stone, but the king who unified Britain in the prophecy and led the people forward, as she said at the beginning, she abandoned everything after becoming a queen.
"Do you think what you do is worth it?" The two looked at each other, Lei Zhe asked, he didn't expect to have his own interference Artoria and Gnivelle still met, or it was similar to the original, Gnivelle fell in love with Artoria at first sight, and at that time Gnevier's father put forward a condition, if Artoria was willing to marry his daughter, then he would fully support the girl, and this time was also when Artoria was most embarrassed.
As the civil war like the big fish eating the small fish and the small fish eating the small fish subsided, there were four very large forces in Britain at that time, neither the territory nor the army could be fought against by the girl, and for Lei Zhe's proposal, that is, the proposal to let Uruk work for her was vetoed by the girl, she would never use this way to achieve her goal.
And it was at this time that Gnavier and her father appeared and put forward this condition.
A woman married to a woman? Although Artoria looks like a handsome man with the help of Merlin's magic, she can't escape the fact that she's a woman no matter what..."Of course it's worth it!" Isn't it worth exchanging the happiness of one person for the future of all Britain? And Gnavier understands me, she knows my secrets, but she doesn't discriminate against me but keeps encouraging her, and in this case she is still willing to marry me, don't you think she's great? I sometimes think it's really funny, as a sword spirit, you don't understand your master, and you can't compare to a woman..."At the end, a smile appeared on Artoria's calm face, but this smile was full of ridicule, I don't know if she was laughing at Lei Zhe or laughing at herself.
“……”
"Don't say anything more, I'm up to it." Artoria lowered her head, regained her composure, and began to study the map on the table.
"......" In silence, Lei Zhe's body turned into black smoke and left the room.
…… In a tavern, four knights, three men and one woman, sat around.
The four were Lancelot, Gawain, Kaye, and Bedwell, and they were drinking slightly sour wines, eating delicious roasts, and discussing various topics, but the content was always inseparable from this.
"I didn't expect that in just one year, we would be able to end the civil strife in Britain." Gawain cut off a piece of roast meat with a dagger and put it in his mouth, drinking wine and saying to the other three.
"......" The other three didn't speak, they felt that it was not a good thing to unify Britain so quickly, because after that, everyone would have to face a chaotic Europe, except for the sudden rise of the Nordic Proud Empire, the wolf clan and the Dead Apostles were also fishing in the troubled waters of Europe, compared to the chaos there Britain was too peaceful.
"Anyway, didn't you notice? The number of dark creatures in Britain has declined rapidly in the past year, and not only that, but even those people in the inner world rarely set foot in this land, and it really has something to do with that person? Bedwell suddenly said, in fact, the most common topic for this group of knights to chat about is Lei Zhe, because the identity of the other party is too entangled, and it is inevitable to become a source of all kinds of gossip.
"It must have something to do with that person, don't you know the crazy news from the inner world? To be honest, it was a little late for the news to reach Britain, and it was not long ago that I learned that the black knight was actually the 'Demon King', the oldest recorded 'rebel against the gods' in this world. Lancelot smiled, he had thought that the Black Knight was nothing more than King Arthur's Guardian Knight, but they were completely shocked by the news that had recently reached Britain.
Because Lei Zhe entered the Moon World in chaos, now this world has long been unrecognizable, and the thing that should not have appeared has also spread to the whole world because of his relationship, which has made the power level of the Moon World instantly increase a lot, and it is precisely for this reason that Lei Zhe's name has been passed down to this day, and his name is not unfamiliar to people living in the world.
As for the first lesson of magicians in contact with magic, it is to know everything about Lei Zhe, and then admire him and respect him at the same time, because of the relationship between the magic tower of the 'infinite abyss' in the East, Lei Zhe has also become a symbol of the magic world.
This is inseparable from the worship of Wei Ya and others, after all, Wei Ya is now the most powerful magician in the world, and how strong Lei Zhe is as her teacher is also full of various speculations, plus he himself is the world's earliest god killer, his status continues to improve, and now he has vague signs of becoming a god in the heart of a magician.
The battle between Raizhe and Tali must have attracted everyone's attention, and when he revealed his true appearance, several old monsters fell into shock, because they all remembered Reizhe's appearance, and at that time they didn't understand why Rezhe was still alive in this world, wasn't he already dead in the Uruk era?
In the special and obscure spread of some people, Lei Zhe's identity was exposed in the inner world, and the news swept the whole world like a storm, and it is precisely for this reason that many dark creatures who lived in Britain in the past have left here, even if they have not left, they are low-key people, and Lei Zhe's battle to destroy Uruk has not been covered, and all the creatures in the inner world know what has happened, and only idiots will fight against him.
The wolves and the Dead Apostles were largely extinct in the land, making Britain the last pure land in Europe.
"Kaye, what are you thinking?" The few people chatting found that Kaye was silent from beginning to end, his brows were tightly knit and he looked preoccupied, which is rare for the other party to behave like this.
Kaye was awakened by Lancelot's voice, she glanced at the other party, then shook her head, "What do you think of the marriage between King and Gneville?" ”
Several people looked at each other, then smiled at the same time, and Bedwell said, "Isn't that good?" Gnevelle is so beautiful and gentle, and so supportive of Wang, I think they are a good fit. ”
Lancelot and Gawain nodded at the same time, agreeing with Bedwell, but Kaye sighed, and she took her glass and drank the red wine in it, saying, "They won't be happy." ”
"Huh? Why? Gawain wondered why Kaye had suddenly brought up this topic. And depending on what she means, those two people will not be happy after they are combined?
Kaye smiled wryly and then pointed at himself, "Because of the king, just like me..."
Bang Dang... The wine glasses in the hands of the three men fell on the table at the same time and rolled to the ground, and the red wine spilled all over the floor, and they looked at Kaye with expressions on their faces completely frozen.
"And you... No, no, no..."Gawain shook his head, he shook his head desperately, "How is this possible, this...!" At this, he stopped his words, because he believed everything Kaye said, no wonder Arthur had called Artoria in the past!
Bedwell looked around carefully, and then he lowered his voice and said, "When did you know about this kind of thing?" ”
"In the beginning, since the first time I met her, have you forgotten my special abilities?" Kaye replied a little helplessly, in fact, she knew it earlier, very, very early!
Lancelot rubbed his forehead, and he also smiled wryly, "This joke is too big, isn't it?" If others know about this, then..."Yes, if others know that their king is actually a woman, then Britain, which has been so peaceful, may fall into chaos again!
"So I say that the future of the two of them will not be happy, even if Gnavelle supports the king now, but what will happen with the passage of time? This marriage was a mistake from the beginning, I wonder why that person didn't stop it? He should know everything, right? ”
The four of them were silent, not caring much about Artoria's real surname, because the girl had indeed conquered them with her charm, but the thought that she was going to marry another woman was something they couldn't accept.
Why did Artoria do this, they both knew that a year of getting along with them had made them know the girl's surname and wishes, maybe in her eyes her happiness was nothing, right?
But isn't it because of this that she and others are willing to follow her until now?
"Let's wait and see what happens," Bedwell said at last, and the other three also sighed and nodded helplessly.
