Dark Soul Moon

Not only the Britons, but even the Saxons know the name of the Lion Knight.

It is said that in the eyes of the Saxons, the Lion Knight is regarded as a demonic existence.

That is enough to stop children from crying at night.

Almost none of the Saxons who encountered the Lion Rider survived, except for those who saw the situation was bad and ran away.

Naturally, Hector couldn't help but respect the Lion Knight.

Ashes nodded.

…………

"Your Excellency should already know the news that has been widely circulated recently?" Hector asked standing behind the table, looking at the ashes in front of the table.

"I've heard of it."

Ashes had naturally heard the news that the king of Britain would be elected.

Merlin even specifically notified Artoria to let her come back early.

He has already started to set it up.

Therefore, this time the group returned to Hector's manor before the selected date.

"Your Excellency Merlin will place a sword in the stone in the knight training ground, and whoever pulls out the sword in the stone will be the king of Britain."

Hector carefully described Merlin's arrangement.

"The sword was unleashed by Lord Merlin. Only Artoria can pull it out, and only she is qualified to pull it out."

"However, I'm not sure whether Your Excellency can draw that sword, so I hope Your Excellency will not interfere with the chosen day."

Hector stared at Ashes closely.

Ashes nodded indifferently, the British throne was of no use to him at all, he had already ascended to the throne himself, the position of the salary king who inherited the flame.

"Thank you for your cooperation."

Hector breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Merlin assured him that only Artoria could pull out the sword in the stone, he doubted it.

Is it possible that Lion Rider could also draw that sword in the stone?

Use brute force to directly break the magic released by Merlin, and forcibly pull out the sword in the stone.

Hector had this premonition that Lion Knight could draw the sword in the stone.

Fortunately, the other party doesn't seem interested in becoming King of Britain.

"The only problem is that Artoria will draw that sword as a woman."

His expression was a bit worried.

The British have a deep-rooted concept of women, and they don't think that a female king can save Britain.

I'm afraid Artoria's road to becoming a king is much more difficult than pulling out the king's sword as a male.

At this time, it is necessary to help Artoria from other aspects.

Arturia's biggest deed in her training was dragon hunting, even though the Britons did not rank the knight princess and the dragon hunting female knight as high as they are now.

Merlin will tell people at the right time that Artoria is the legendary female knight who hunts dragons.

With Merlin's status as a court magician and some of his successful prophecies, people are still willing to believe his words.

But before that, Artoria needs other help.

For example...announcing the recognition of the Lion Knight.

If even the famous Lion Knight is willing to admit Artoria's identity as king, then Arturia's road to becoming king will undoubtedly be easier.

Looking at Ashes, Hector was hesitating how to speak.

In fact, until now, Ashes was only a master who taught Arturia skills, and had no other relationship.

And this is actually not enough to improve Artoria's reputation in the early stage.

"I don't know if your Excellency will allow me to release it later, are you willing to admit the king's news?" Hector asked tentatively.

"..." Ashes thought for a while, then nodded.

"Thank you very much. In this case, Arturia will be more relaxed..."

Hector said gratefully.

Chapter 34 The chosen day

The morning of the selected day.

Artoria stretched, then got out of bed, and changed her pajamas.

There was the sound of undressing "swish".

The girl's pretty figure was exposed to the somewhat chilly morning air.
