Chapter 308: Fulfilling a Long-cherished Wish

*** ***

This is the end of the dream

Get to know the last step of Artoria

Her final battleground, which divided the country in half, ended in the king's victory

There were hardly any living people on the battlefield

The war was over, and the knight was breathing like a bloody sunset

The knight had the reins in his hand and hung desperately on his wounded horse, and the only ones who survived were this knight and the white horse, and the king who was hanging on horseback

"My king...... King Arthur "

Even though he was seriously injured, the knight still insisted on galloping on the battlefield, and the king that the knight worshipped had been firmly grasped by death

He was able to annihilate the enemy with a single man, but he was mortally wounded by a wound that could not be healed in the eyes of the knight, which meant that the king he served by the knight was about to die

But even so, the knight didn't give up

"My king, please be sober, as long as you get to that place......"

The knight cried out desperately, "Their king is immortal, and as long as he keeps calling, the king will surely open his eyes."

As long as the king still has the holy sword in his hand, then the king will not die

"Whew...... Whew......"

Shortness of breath Crossing hills filled with corpses, the knight's goal was not far away, unrendered by death, and still maintaining a verdant wood

The knight knew that his king was immortal, so he believed that if he crossed the hated battlefield and reached the place of the spirit, his king would be able to stand up again

Or so I can only believe it

The last knight was different from other sanctimonious knights, he believed in his king

Isolated in the castle, alienated by the knights, feared by the common people...... He was proud of the young king, who never showed his selfishness and quietly worked for his country

And Lancelot didn't hurt that he was defending not the country, but for the king, so he offered his sword and became the king's arm, and at a young age he became the king's bodyguard

A king who can't get a peek out of his true face, a king who has no selfishness, a fair and selfless king, or just by being his guard, you can see the true side of the king

The knight just wanted to see the true side of his king

Not in a castle or in a war field, but to see a smile that is true to being human

Even the most perfect king can't disguise himself anytime and anywhere, and the knight thinks so, but once again it's the opposite

Became a guard to protect the king at all times Close to the king than the other knights have been watching the king's daily movements

His eyes never took his eyes off the king...... But even so, the knight never saw the smile of his king

"Whew...... Hu ...... "I can't remember when I started to get angry, but I was the king who had accomplished such a great thing, and the king who should be in glory, but no one had ever seen his gentle appearance."

I have never seen a watch like the king...... It hasn't been done yet

Wang: Still alone

Therefore the king does not die and cannot die

If it ends here, then the great king will not be rewarded?

"My king...... Please rest here for a while, and call the soldiers right away."

Entering the forest, the knight put the king under the tree, and it was time to wait

To the nearest barracks of our army, if we run non-stop with the horses of the army, it will be enough for half a day, but whether the king will be able to hold out until tomorrow is something that anyone with a discerning eye can see

"Please be patient until that time, you will definitely bring the soldiers" Even at this time, in fact, he still did not forget to salute the unconscious king

"Bedwell...... "But when the knight was about to mount his horse sideways

The king, who should not have been conscious, opened his mouth and called the knight's name

"My king, are you feeling better?"

"Well...... I just had a strange dream......"

A hazy, tired voice

Even though he was weak, the voice still made the knight feel unusually warm

"Dreams," the knight asked, "The king's consciousness is not yet complete, and if he hadn't asked so, the king's consciousness would have fallen into darkness again."

"Hmm...... What an invaluable experience......"

"Yes, then please rest well, in the meantime, I'll bring the soldiers."

But the king sighed

"My king...... Did I say something rude?"

"No, just curious...... Dreams are not something that you can see when you wake up...... If it's not the same dream, can you see the same dream after closing your eyes?"

This time it was the knight who was strange

"Yes...... If the thoughts are so strong that you will see the same dreams, which I have encountered before......"

This kind of statement is, of course, false...... Dreams are not something that can be manipulated by human will Even so, the knight lied

It was the first and last time I apologized for cheating on the king

"Really? You are very knowledgeable...... "The king said with emotion, and then bowed his head without looking at the knight, "Bedwell takes my sword......"

In a voice that was about to disappear, he gave the final command

"Listen, go over this forest, through that hill full of corpses, and beyond that there is a very large lake, and throw my sword into the lake."

"But...... Wang ......: "The way of knighthood, what does that mean?"

Sword of the Lake

If there is no sword that protects the king to the present day, it means that the king is completely gone

"Go ahead...... Fulfill my last command, and when you return, I want to hear what you have dreamed of...... "The king's command has not changed

The knight hesitated to pick up the sword, but at last he walked out of the forest and over the hills to the lake

If you throw your sword into the lake, the king will no longer be a king

Those who could not do so did not throw their swords into the lake and returned to the king

But the king's command did not change

Over and over......

It was only after he understood that the king's meaning would never change, that the knight threw his sword into the lake for the third time

The Holy Sword returns to the lake

The white wrist that poked out of the lake took the holy sword, and the holy sword hovered in mid-air three times before disappearing from the world

Then the knight accepted the end of the king, and the responsibility that the king had borne to the present end was completely ended

"The sword has been returned to the lake, and the hand of the goblin in the lake has taken the holy sword."

Because of the knight's words, the king opened his eyes weakly

"Really, that's great...... Then puff up your chest, and you obey the king's commands."
