Stray Chapter 29: It’s Merlin!
Some people hope to use the Holy Grail to change the established cause and effect of the past...
Some people hope to serve the lord from beginning to end in the Holy Grail War, so as to make up for the regrets in life...
Some people are transformed into irrational beasts, not because they enjoy killing, but because they want to be punished and killed by those they owe in the process... to wash away their regrets and shame.
Even knowing that there is no point, even knowing that there is nothing to repay.
But I still want to do this, I want to pay for my sins, because my obsession has turned into madness, and the regrets and attachments in my life have become a nightmare that haunts my soul forever. As long as there is no liberation for one day, every second on the Heroic Throne is the end of the soul erosion.
All in all
Because of what I wanted, I was summoned to appear as a Servant. These heroes of the past may have a big-picture view now, and they can handle it clearly, but when they encounter the attachment and attachment that makes their souls never free?
Skaha sees this very clearly, so he gives Tatsuka Fujimaru advice: "The Knights of the Round Table are your companions now, but they may also become enemies later, as long as they encounter something more important than you. "
"What... something more important?" Fujimaru Rika asked subconsciously.
"Their king."
The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows replied calmly, she has also paid attention to what happened in Britain, and naturally knows that although the Knights of the Round Table are all heroes, even the weakest among them, Bedwell, will definitely be praised.
Skaha felt that he had no right to comment on the one-armed swordsman, it would be an insult to the warrior.
But no matter what, it doesn't change the fact that the Knights of the Round Table are all the king chefs at all, or in other words, there are only king chefs and hidden king chefs, and there can be no other ingredients.
What? One-handedly ended the legend of King Arthur, should the rebellious Mordred not be a king chef?
Hehe, if you think so, you can only say that you are too naive, you are actually a twisted king chef, maybe you are still a father control!
After all, Mordred is a typical example of love and hatred for his father.
She is a clone made by Morgan based on Artoria and using magic. Her growth rate is much faster than that of natural people, and her life cycle is correspondingly short. When children of the same age are still playing with wooden swords, she has already He grew up with the same body as King Arthur.
Ashamed of his abnormal origin, he is unconsciously jealous of the people around him, Mordred lives in isolation because he hates humans, and follows the chivalry depicted in the novel in order to become a truly noble knight And try to exercise yourself.
However, even this mere innocence was broken by Morgan.
Faced with the unrebellious Mordred, Morgan reveals to him the secret of her life experience, about the fact that she is not only a clone, but the real identity is the unscrupulous son created by King Arthur and Morgan.
I am not a real human being, I am a child of the same bloodline as the king!
At the same time, Mordred was also immersed in unparalleled joy, because she had always admired the flawless King Arthur, and worked hard to train herself to become a noble knight, but also because of this vision .
Even with his mother's obsession, Mordred's vision for King Arthur far surpassed that ambition.
Mordred had great respect for his father, King Arthur, and was proud of his father, and did not act according to Morgan's intentions, but wanted to act as a knight approved by his father. She removed her heartbreak that she was not a human being, and was proud that she had the same bloodline as the king.
However, the more you stand on the top of the cloud, the more painful it is to fall.
The fact that King Arthur was not acknowledged was the key turning point for Mordred, who longed for fatherly love, to change from hope to despair, and then ignited the fire of hatred for King Arthur in her heart.
Maybe this is what Morgan wants to see?
On the surface, it seems that he hates King Arthur, and he believes that his obsession with the throne makes Mordred become extremely vicious. In fact, deep down in her heart, she simply wanted her father's approval and hoped that the other party could admit her.
If this is not enough to be called a twisted chef Wang, who else is qualified?
"King Arthur?" Fujimaru Rika was a little surprised, "So we will really meet this legendary king this time?"
"...I don't know about this."
Skaha pondered for a while, but chose to hide it temporarily.
After all, if you say it now, given Fujimaru Rika's character and her poor acting skills, it's hard to expect her to be able to hide from the group of Knights of the Round Table. A Servant who was barely able to reach a consensus would immediately become detached again.
First kill each other, then fight a civil war!
"Part of your Chaldean guess is correct, this singularity... If it can be considered a singularity, then its center is indeed on the British Isles, on which the Camelot Dynasty still exists. Standing tall."
Choosing to hide what she knew, the rational queen revealed information that she could detect on the surface.
“The battle of Jianlan did not completely destroy the country. On the contrary, after that, it quickly re-emerged again. The new dynasty was led by a knight who called himself the Lion King, saying that he inherited the orthodoxy of King Arthur. ."
"The Lion King? So, he should be the center of this era's distortion, or at least someone in the center circle?"
The voice of Da Vinci came from behind, Fujimaru Rika looked back subconsciously, and found that Da Vinci and Matthew came up.
And Mordred is also with him, but it seems that this rebellious knight like a bad girl seems to have a feeling of boredom. She doesn't seem to want to follow Matthew, but there is nothing else she can do except follow.
But think about it, the knights of the round table below meet again after a long time, let alone someone as popular as Bedwell.
Even Tristan, who left the Knights of the Round Table first after uttering the typical line, the decisive psychological trauma engraved in the heart of the Knight King, "King Arthur doesn't understand people's hearts", can be more or less able to relate to others. Laughing and ignoring enmity.
Although his heartfelt remarks made most of the knights and kings at that time cursed without him knowing, but in the end, it is impossible to blame all the faults on his head.
And he himself has always regretted this incident, and he is still bitter that he chose to leave the round table before his death and made such a speech without thinking.
There are also Lancelot and Gawain. Although it is difficult to say that they really forgave each other, at least during his lifetime, Gawain gave up his dignity before dying in order to turn the tide and defend the glory of the king. Take the initiative to write to Lancelot for help.
And Lancelot was the first to know the news, he decisively took the army and killed it back, hoping to help Wang quell the unrest...
Although Gawain failed to last until that time, he was beheaded by Mordred, and Lancelot hurried as fast as he could, and in the end he was not able to catch up with the final battle. Live the rest of your life in remorse and remorse.
But this experience determines that their perception of each other is very complicated, and it is difficult to fight.
Only Mordred, the rebellious knight, the anti-king... Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to reintegrate into that circle no matter what, even the mild Bedwell, it is difficult to completely Treat her with a nonchalant attitude.
So, Mordred can only follow the actions of Chaldea and his party. It is not a question of whether she is cowardly or not, but a question of embarrassment or embarrassment. If they are still in a state of mutual hostility, she will naturally lose.
But now that the fight has been temporarily stopped, she can only be relieved from the group of people, staring at each other, trying to kill each other with their eyes, which is not interesting at all, okay?
But it's not bad to follow the Chaldean group. Didn't she immediately hear a piece of news that made her very concerned
"Isn't the Camelot dynasty destroyed? What kind of lion king who claimed to inherit King Arthur's orthodoxy and rebuild the country?"
After being stunned for a while, the girl suddenly burst into anger: "What kind of **** is the Lion King?! I have never inherited the orthodoxy, and the father would rather die with me than admit me, why is he so bold? , do you really think I'm dead?!"
“…”
“…”
Fujimaru Rika twitched the corners of her mouth, but still managed not to blurt out the complaints in her heart, although it was quite uncomfortable.
Like her, the other "girls" also had subtle expressions on their faces.
"Damn! I'm going to chop that guy's head off!" Realizing that he was indeed dead Mordred, he felt chest pains from anger, and he picked up the magic sword in a rage, and was about to rush out. !
"Wait, you're not necessarily a match for the Lion King."
Skaha took a deep look at the maiden knight, and although she knew it would be more beneficial, she still felt a little subtle.
Did they die together before death, and do they still have to stage a show of filial piety after death? But in a sense, it may be able to cause a great mental impact on that King Arthur... ah, no, it may have a great mental impact on the Lion King, and it is not certain to increase the odds of winning.
"How could it be possible..." Mordred suddenly felt that he was being despised, and immediately glared at the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows.
She doesn't care who the other party is and how strong they are. There is only one person in this world who can truly respect and awe. But even in the face of that person, she was able to kill with her sword.
What is Skaha by comparison?
The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows didn't care, she just said in a deep voice: "Whether the Lion King is the distortion center of this singularity, this may be debatable..."
"Isn't it? The points of divergence in history are very clear. Logically speaking, the legend of King Arthur was ended after the Battle of Sword Bar, and Camelot fell apart because of this." Da Vinci was a little strange, "and now With the addition of a Lion King that does not exist in history, Camelot has survived and continued to develop, no matter how you look at it, he is a very important person, right?"
"Could it be a demon pillar or something?"
I found that Mordred's expression was a little tangled. She felt very uncomfortable when someone pointed out the historical fact of her treason and murder, and Matthew could only come out to smooth things out and raise her doubts by the way.
"It's up to you to discover..."
The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows skipped this question and said directly: "The Lion King is indeed a key figure, but only the key figure, not the center... Whether it is the emergence of the Lion King or the continuation of Camelot, These things are really just the aftermath of this singularity.”
"Aftermath..."
"Yes, have you ever wondered why you were summoned to the Land of Shadows?"
"Speaking of this, I'm also wondering why? If I'm not mistaken, is there something wrong with the external environment? Is it bad?"
Da Vinci's eyes lit up, looking at Skaha expectantly, hoping for an answer.
"It can be said that, but the external environment has not become very bad. On the contrary, it has become quite superior and has returned to the complete environment of the Age of Gods..." Skaha said calmly, "It is different from this peculiar People or creatures who gradually adapt to the evolution in the point, you... No, Lixiang cannot directly adapt to the external environment."
"The complete age of the gods?" Da Vinci was stunned, and after reacting, he nodded in a strange tone and muttered to himself, "So, if she appeared directly in the outside world, she would even lose the density of magic in the air. It's unacceptable, as long as you take a breath, it may burst directly from the inside..."
So scary? Fujimaru Rika widened her eyes.
"That's right, so the Lion King and Camelot are just the aftermath. The real issue that needs to be paid attention to is the fact that the Age of Gods has re-shrouded this planet." Skaha nodded.
"But... how is that possible? Obviously in the early dynasty era, the whole age of the gods has come to an end." Matthew looked very stunned, "How could it come back?"
"Because of the lion king's court magician, he turned his fantasy into reality and descended on the surface of this planet, distorting all order, phenomena and cognitive laws, and I don't know how to obtain it. The huge source of magic power has raised the mystery and magic power density in the air to a very high level."
The Queen of Shadowland hesitated:
"This is also a Caster qualified to be crowned. In any way, he is not inferior to the behind-the-scenes mastermind who was killed by human beings. If it is not for the Magic King to take the lead first, then change to this A magician can also do this kind of thing.”
"What?"
"Caster qualified for the championship?!"
"The level of the magic king Solomon..."
Let alone Fujimaru Rika, Da Vinci and others were also stunned. Is there such a powerful enemy in this singularity?
An enemy of the same level as the Magic King appeared at this time?
What a joke, although the Demon King has always been waiting in the Demon King City, why do other maps also appear with enemies of the final boss level!
"Wait, there is a Caster qualified for the title in this era?!"
At this time, the communication from Chaldea seemed to be repaired, and the doctor's astonished voice suddenly sounded in the air, "It's still the lion king's court magician... It's Merlin! It must be Merlin. Let's go!"
…………
Avalon.
In a solitary cell.
The Magician of Flowers is full of black lines, and he has been sentenced to life imprisonment. He has not appeared in the world for so long, how can someone put the pot on his head?
(PS: It's been a week again, tomorrow is the third root canal treatment, after that it should be... well... well, it should be... This time is indeed very affected, sorry...)
