Stray Chapter 53: “Knight”
But that doesn't make much sense, because the point is not what she thinks, but what those who think they've done wrong think.
is like Lancelot, Arturia saved him and Guinevere from the guilt, it was a sincere act, and she sincerely blessed them, as if she thought that was the most correct result And feel at ease about it.
Lancelot's soul was mad because of this, and he went to the end of corruption. When he was in Fuyuki City, he even degenerated into a beast that seemed ridiculous even to call himself a knight and appeared in the world. It was only because the remorse and self-blame that sprouted in his heart eventually turned into anger, turned into hatred, and constantly cursed himself.
So, what they need is not Artoria's unilateral understanding and forgiveness at all, what they need is a chance to truly correct the regrets and mistakes they had made during their lifetime - to be able to make up for their own mistakes, or to be forgiven by others. The king regarded it as unfaithful, tried the crime, or even killed it himself, so that they could be relieved a little.
Therefore, give them a chance to do something wrong for themselves... The girl thought this silently, and repeatedly told herself to be firm and follow the Master's script.
"Wait, wait, the Lion King...is the real King Arthur? And, is it such a slender girl?"
Mash looked at the scene in front of him in amazement, and already vaguely understood what was going on.
"This is the only explanation, I don't think this group of fanatical knights will recognize the wrong person..." Da Vinci frowned tightly, pulling Matthew quietly to Skaha and Mordred's The direction was getting closer, and the almighty genius had already smelled some kind of ominous omen.
"But...why do it?"
Gawain has completely ignored the Chaldeans behind him at this moment. Even half a minute ago, they were all life and death comrades in arms, he just asked this urgently.
"Gao Wenqing, what do you mean?" The blonde girl asked with a blank face. Although she made up her mind, she did not have the talent to tell lies, so she had absolutely no acting skills in this regard. Great read.
It's just that you don't really need any acting skills. At least at this time, no one will think in the direction of "reading the lines", but they all subconsciously feel that the king of knights is cold and cold at all. any emotion.
"It's Camelot..." Gawain hesitated for a while, and asked cautiously, he also found that something was wrong with Wang, although he didn't know the reason for the time being.
"Camelo? Camelot naturally still exists here!" Artoria replied "indifferently", "I swear that as long as I still exist, then I will make Camelot a rich and stable person. The country of , will never lose to the legendary ideal land!"
“…”
“…”
A moment of silence.
The Knights of the Round Table headed by Gawain could not describe the feeling of loss in their hearts. They subconsciously remembered some memories that seemed to be a long, long time ago. At that time, the king also always fought for such an ideal, He never squinted his eyes due to melancholy on the throne, nor did he feel lost when traveling through the battlefield.
And the current king seems to be the same, although it seems that now she is not suppressing her feelings as a human being, but has no human feelings at all, but this is the only oath she strictly guards to this day.
"Are you from Chaldea?"
At this time, the Lion King or King Arthur had already looked at Matthew and Da Vinci "indifferently", and said without cadence—
"It must have been a long and arduous journey to get here, right? Your will and great deeds are worthy of admiration. I agree with your efforts, and I will accept all of you and give you forever... "
"What, what do you mean?" Matthew was taken aback for a moment, as if this knight king had no hostility?
The blond girl glanced at her and explained "indifferently":
"As you can see, the history of mankind will be ended because of someone's actions, and only this era will survive without any violation. What I seek is completion without anyone's violation. The ideal homeland, and a pure white millennium kingdom."
"Ideal Township...?"
"Yes, this era will eventually exist independently of the burned human history, but I will protect people, I will protect you, at any cost..." King Arthur said, " Camelot's glory will live on forever, and you will forever remain in this singularity."
"What, what? How can this, this be possible? This..." Matthew finally understood, but her first reaction was to shake her head again and again, she couldn't accept such a result.
"Why? You don't seem to agree?" Despite the question, King Arthur's expression remained unchanged, as if she had no doubts, "This is the only way for human beings to survive, and your journey is also fine. That's it..."
"No, no, this is wrong..."
The shield-holding girl shook her head vigorously. She didn't know what to say. Although she didn't know the specific method, she just intuitively felt that there was a big problem with the result.
Da Vinci has already spoken: "Sorry, what we have to do is to restore the entire human history, not to let human beings as the only remaining specimens be preserved in a field such as the singularity, and completely lose the future... …”
The almighty genius has understood the meaning of this King Arthur for the first time. This is not the only way to protect human beings. It is just to make human beings into specimens.
Humanity is still extinct, history is still over, but compared to the original, there is nothing left, at least there is such a singularity, like a snapshot on the Internet, human beings are preserved as specimens...
But, does this really make any sense?
"Is that so? It's a pity, then it seems that we have absolute conflicts with each other... But I still hope you can change your mind, I have no intention of being your enemy, but if you want to deny me, then I will also will deny you."
King Arthur nodded very calmly, "So——know your limit, accept my protection. Of course I won't force it, if you really don't want to, you can leave this era, I won't Before I hurt you, just give me the round table in your hand, Knight of the Shield."
“…”
“…”
There was a terrible silence.
"Sorry, I can't give you this shield..." Matthew subconsciously grabbed the big shield in his hand. This shield is an extremely important Noble Phantasm, and it is precisely by virtue of its existence that the Master can It has the special ability to bond with many Servants.
Once it is handed over, the pace of the humanistic restoration business can really only stop here. Presumably this is the reason why the King of Knights was going to take down this shield, right? She wants to make sure that this singularity will not fail because of the actions of Chaldea and others until her "ideal land" is successfully created.
Maybe even the Master was taken away for this reason, everything can be explained.
"It's okay if you don't hand it over, but you can't leave like that..." King Arthur still gave the ultimatum ruthlessly, and when she watched her calmly, Matthew suddenly felt a lot of pressure, and almost threw trembling.
But at the next moment, the graceful figure stood in front of her and blocked all the pressure.
Skaha snorted softly: "Don't be frightened by her, if you want to detain us, you can't do it just by her words..."
Although she is very domineering, the moment the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows said these words, it was basically equivalent to intensifying the conflict between the two sides, and it was completely put on the table, and there was no possibility of fooling the past... Although, it could not have been fooled.
"Sure enough, are you going to be hostile to me?" The King of Knights had already anticipated this, and she looked in the direction of the Knights of the Round Table, "So, Gao Wenqing, what do you mean?"
At this time, Matthew also subconsciously looked at Gawain next to him.
saw a flash of brilliance that resembled the sun. Gao Wen's powerful holy sword strike was blocked by Bedwell, who reacted in time, and the latter, who was standing in front of Mashu, appeared to be stunned. Shocked and angry: "Gao Wenqing, what are you interfering with?!"
"Get out of the way! Bedwell!" the white horse knight shouted in a deep voice, "Why stop me?!"
Ma Xiu only reacted later, and his heart suddenly became cold, but he didn't have time to think about it. He heard the shrill sound of the wind again, and when he turned to look again, he saw clenching his teeth. Guan's Mordred had already waved his magic sword to meet him and fought with Lancelot.
"I knew, it's really a good dog, can your father betray you directly with just one sentence?" The rebellious knight sneered like this, she had just realized the problem, so she has been paying attention , so it can react the moment the opponent draws his sword and turns his back.
"Thank you for your compliment, this is the most comforting sentence I have heard from you, a traitor..." The knight on the lake remained unmoved and said very calmly, with the magic released under the blessing , the sword of the indestructible lake light is unimaginably heavy.
"You—!! Damn! You're not a traitor too! What right do you have to say about me!"
Mordred was furious, and the red lightning released by the magic sword fiercely opposed the sword pressure on the opposite side.
The same traitor, the same fallen magic sword, at this moment, the two who seemed to be mirror images of each other were fighting frantically together.
is just a moment, and the infighting has already happened. Facing the close comrades who used to be brothers and sisters, the Knights of the Round Table at this moment were suddenly divided into two camps because of King Arthur's words - Gawain, Lan Slot and Tristan attacked the Chaldeans without hesitation.
"Stop! Can you still be considered knights like this?!" Bedwell roared with a split eye.
However, what responded to him was Gawain's holy sword slashing at the head, with no hesitation, he was going to slaughter him, who was in front of the king, under the sword!
