Artoria, who was asking questions to the girl, had a serious look on her face that she had never had before, even when she had just come to this world and sought the identity given by Yi Fan, she had never been so serious, which made people wonder how much this seemingly simple question was cared about in the heart of this former king.

Artoria was once the King of Great Britain, one of the most legendary kings not only in history but also in legends, reborn as a heroic spirit by the power of human faith, and wandering the wheel of time as a transcendent to the laws of the world.

What kind of consciousness and what kind of mood does such a king have, even if he falls into the mortal world again and is contaminated with the incompleteness and filth of the world, he still has to respond to the call of the mortals in the world and come to the world again?

Is it just to rewrite the fate that has already been predestined, is it just to let his people live a happy life? Or is it that in the midst of such a great wish, there is also a little humble wish that this king does not know?

Yi Fan didn't know what Artoria thought, but he was more willing to believe in the second possibility, because in his opinion, even the strongest people in the entire kingdom should have the desire and right to live like a mortal - such a trace of distraction mixed with his own private thoughts, perhaps infiltrated the latter's body when he created Artoria, so Artoria cared more about the meaning of his own existence.

Such thoughts seem to have come up several times in the previous months, but for some reason, Artoria behaved so strongly in this face of this girl this time, as if she had to get the answer she longed for here.

"Are you so eager to know the answer?" Before Yi Fan couldn't help but ask, the girl dressed as the eldest lady took the lead in asking, "Obviously, you can't even confirm what your existence is, but you care so much about people, the most ordinary and humble existence?

The girl's words sounded as if she had fully realized Artoria's existence, although Yi Fan was unwilling, but at this moment, there was still a burst of terrible thoughts in his heart, that is, even if he violated some of his principles, he had to protect someone's consciousness.

But it seemed that the maiden did not wait for Artoria to answer her meaning, and after staring at the latter for a few more moments, she finally withdrew her gaze and began to look up at the endless stretch of road behind the two carriages.

"Human beings are so small, even if the strongest in them can survive for hundreds of years, but compared to the infinite and long life of elves, it is only a matter of a moment, if you compare it with the whole world, then human life, even a speck of dust in the vast desert can not be compared, such an existence, what is there to care about. At this point, the girl turned to look at Yi Fan and Artoria again, and then continued: "In the previous merchant camp, haven't you seen clearly......?

The girl's words, so that Artoria, who was very excited a moment ago, couldn't help but be stunned, obviously in the heart of this king, what she had considered before was not such a question at all, it was equivalent to the human creature itself, maybe she was more concerned about whether she had the so-called human name.

"What did you say before, if you obviously didn't mind that much, why do you have to be so wary of Artoria's identity?" Yi Fan, who had recovered from his short contemplation, raised his head and asked rhetorically.

"Because, I myself am such a small and humble human being, and it is very normal for an ordinary existence like me to behave like that if I suddenly see a life form that is more advanced than myself, right?" Hearing Yi Fan's words, a wry smile appeared on the girl's face, and then she looked at Artoria again and said: " Even though he has the blood of a red dragon flowing in his body, he has to exist in human form, and even willingly becomes a servant of human beings, such an existence, if I don't feel guarded, it will seem abnormal. ”

"Red Dragon Blood?" Almost the moment they heard the girl say that, Yi Fan and Artoria couldn't help but speak at the same time, and then immediately after, both of them quietly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

It turned out that he had just seen through the dragon blood hidden in Saber's body, didn't he see through her identity as a heroic spirit that had already died? Thinking that it might be because of the power of the Baroque, the dragon breath on Saber's body was too strong, Yi Fan finally reacted.

"Isn't it?, although that aura has been very well concealed by you, but because I have been in close contact with the red dragon, I can still feel even the faint breath, and I can be very sure that that kind of aura is indeed the breath of the red dragon. Hearing Yi Fan's question, the girl's face showed a brief doubt, and then she said in a very affirmative tone. 、

"Haha, I didn't expect it, I obviously made Artoria hide it very carefully, and you can see through it like this, worthy of the holy priest in Vera's mouth!" Touching his head and smiling deliberately, Yi Fan immediately pulled Artoria and turned around and walked in the direction where the carriage was, "Then, until the new caravan arrives here, we can only continue to wait here." ”

"Well, of course, I think we'll have a pretty long way together. Looking at Yi Fan and their departing figures, the girl said with a smile on her face.

However, when Yi Fan and the others gradually disappeared from the girl's field of vision, the smile on the girl's face gradually disappeared at this time, and finally turned into a solemn and serious expression.

"That girl, is she already a soul state? Although there is such a thing as dragon blood, it is only a soul, not a corpse that continues to live, and such a special existence has never been seen before. The girl who was muttering so quietly finally reacted and turned to look behind her, "Tyrell!"

"Yes, I wonder what the master commands?" said Tyrell, dressed as an old butler, and after hearing the girl's order, he hurried up to her and bent down respectfully to ask.

"Have you ever heard of it? There are actually guys in this world who exist purely in the state of souls?"

"Is it just a soul existence? To be honest, although I have been living on the continent for hundreds of years, if it is an existence that even the master does not know, it is naturally impossible for me to know. Perhaps sensing the subtle impatience on the girl's body, Tyrell hurriedly continued: "However, according to what I have heard, it seems that the Ryan Magister of Ampenorn Academy has been studying souls for many years, and if it were him, he might know something and not be sure. ”

Hearing Tyrell's answer, although it was not very satisfied, the girl's already angry expression relaxed slightly, "Ampenorn Academy, Ryan? It seems that our next destination has been decided." ”

On the other hand, after leaving the maiden and them, Yi Fan took Artoria back with him, but instead of walking directly towards the carriage, they walked slightly sideways towards a sand dune not far away.

"The girl just now may have noticed your true identity, so in the coming days, we must be cautious and absolutely not be careless. When he was about to walk in front of the sand dune, Yi Fan stopped and said to Artoria behind him.

Obviously, although both sides seemed to have agreed with each other's answer in the conversation just now, in reality, it was just a seemingly appropriate solution chosen by the people on both sides to prevent the conflict from erupting directly.

"Well, although I am indeed a special existence that can exist on this continent by relying on my own magic, unlike ordinary summoned creatures from other dimensions, I still exist in a special way that even I don't know. Gently resting his head on Yi Fan's back, Saber closed his eyes slightly and continued: "Heroic Spirit, this kind of existence that transcends the soul, but is completely different from the soul, what is the meaning of appearing in this world?"

The dead will eventually turn into the undead, and then the dead will wander in a place of end with no end in sight, and in the passage of time and existence, they will eventually turn into dust and disappear - such a law is the law that every human being living in this world must follow. 、

But the Heroic Spirit is completely different, it is clear that it has died, even the soul has dissipated, and the existence of both the past and the future has been completely erased, but even so, through the birth of something called faith and inheritance in the human mind, its existential power has been revived again, and finally reconstructed into a new existence in the ideal state of human beings!

In the long years that human beings have multiplied and continued, even if such beings usher in the end of the world, as long as there is still one person in the world who believes in their existence, then they will be reborn again, they will appear again, they will be called heroes, they will be called kings, they will be accepted, they will be loved, and then they will be remembered and believed again.

It is based on the existence that existed in the original history, and the existence is recreated by the faith of human beings, and when that belief has crossed a long enough span, the so-called heroic spirits will further obtain the name that should belong to them - God!

Yi Fan didn't dare to believe the idea born in his heart, because he himself knew that if that was really the case, then maintaining Saber's power to exist in this world, maybe there would be only one self left who still believed in her - sure enough, the reason why the magic of fantasy embodiment could make her exist in this world after creating Saber was for that reason, the so-called fantasy embodiment was just a direct transformation of the power of faith into the power of existence?

Before you summoned me, Yi Fan, the place where I existed, there was far beyond the definition of an ordinary world or dimension, it was a special existence that was beyond the rules, and who created that place?

No, maybe even God can't have that kind of power, because, I know, the true posture of the so-called God!
