Shape Moon, The Road to the Magician

"elder sister……"

Within the broken barrier, Arturia, who had arrived belatedly, looked at Morgan, who had been imprisoned by Xia Yuan in front of her.

The expression was a little hesitant, but more of it was that he didn't know how to face it.

Similarly, when Morgan saw Arturia's appearance, his expression became strange, and his eyes seemed to be evading.

She pretended to be indifferent and said:"Are you here to laugh at me? My stupid sister"

"No, sister, I know everything...so please don't hide it from me anymore……"

Arturia shook her head slightly, then came to Morgan's side, bent down, and gave her a deep hug.

A hug a thousand years overdue.

She said softly:"Thank you, sister"

"Wha...what?!"

"You...what are you doing? Artoria...my stupid sister, have you burned out your head? I am……"

Morgan Le Fay, who was hugged tightly by Arturia, took a deep breath and said with a stiff expression.

"Please don’t hide it from me anymore, sister, I know everything, I understand everything, both sister and everyone……"

"I, I... know everything."

Listening to Artoria's slightly crying voice, Morgan's heart finally softened. She did not directly push Artoria away as expected, but hugged her as well.

This also spanned a thousand years, She hugged her sister again

"Don't cry~" Morgan lowered his head and let Artoria's face be buried in her broad chest, with a gentle voice. Like a real sister, he comforted his sister carefully,"You don't have to say sorry to me, After all, I am your sister, right?……"

"Um……"

Looking at the two biological sisters reunited after a long separation, Xia Yuan sighed slightly, and a smile appeared on his face, feeling happy for Artoria from the bottom of his heart.

Looking around the large barrier that was about to be broken, he used magic in time to isolate the space where the sisters were, leaving them enough time to talk about the feelings and experiences they had not seen for a thousand years.

After doing this, he just shook his head slightly and left here consciously.

He couldn't help but sigh

"It’s really a touching scene... In this case, Artoria can really let go.……"

"Ahem... Because I also appeared and helped a lot this time, I showed up very promptly."

Merlin coughed a few times, then popped his head out of the darkness.

"……"

Xia Yuan looked at him expressionlessly, and then decisively hit Merlin with a gorgeous uppercut.

"Can't hit me!"

Merlin, who is agile and agile, easily dodged this sneak attack.

The majestic British swordsman is not just talking about it!

"Why are you hitting me? Obviously they helped a lot this time"

"Because you destroyed the good atmosphere of self-impression"

"Self-impressed? Merlin scratched his head and looked confused:"I don't quite understand.""

"Forget it, I have no intention of letting you, an inhuman being, understand this emotion.

Xia Yuan let out a long breath, with a helpless expression:"Anyway, don't mess around here, don't disturb the reunion between their sisters." Let's leave for a while."

Seeing the two sisters reuniting through his clairvoyance, Merlin nodded and did not take the liberty to run over and disturb them.

"It's so gentle. I never thought I could see such a gentle expression on that witch Morgan's face."

"And Artoria, she is telling Morgan her experiences and feelings, as well as her gratitude to everyone, what?! He obviously helped me, so why was he classified as waste?!"

Seeing that Artoria planned to turn him into a waste, Merlin showed a heartbroken expression.

"Obviously they have worked very hard."

"Stop peeking! There is a touching reunion between two sisters. You, an old dream monster, are hiding here and spying. What do you want to do?"

"But...people also want to see happy scenes."

"Stop acting like a spoiled brat when you're old, you're so disgusting Merlin."

Looking at Merlin who had exceeded his lower limit in front of him, Xia Yuan gave him a kick in the butt unceremoniously.

"Ah!"

Merlin fell into the darkness with a gorgeous parabola.

So not far from the touching reunion of the two sisters, a pair of"good friends" who had a good relationship also began their cordial communication in the darkness.

……

【——Target disappears】

【Data anomaly——】

【Trying to parse target——■■】

【■■■■】

【Parsing cannot■■■】

【Unable to prove■■】

【Stop Simulation ■]

After fooling around with Merlin in the dark for a long time, finally with Arturia’s call, this touching reunion came to an end.

Because of the shattering of the barrier, Morgan's consciousness has gradually separated from Poanyi's body, and finally returned to Avalon.

The doll with Morgan's appearance in front of me has only fragments of an empty shell left.

"click——"

As the core of the Skeleton Queen's body was shattered by Xia Yuan, the sound of a mechanical failure reached the ears of the two of them.

Then, under Artoria's horrified gaze, the body of the Skeleton Queen that originally fell to the ground in the appearance of Morgan Le Fay suddenly began to decompose at an extremely fast speed, turning into countless crimson gravels that quickly condensed into clumps.

The body of the Skeleton Queen is these red fine sand objects, or the alchemical substance that should be called the Philosopher's Stone.

Putting his palm into the red sand, Xia Yuan's arm began to flow rapidly with the magic circuit on his arm flickering, as if being pulled by something, and then quickly collapsed.

At this point, the purpose of their trip has been completed.

Help the two meet Gray, and help Artoria meet Morgan, so that the sisters can truly reveal their true feelings.

By the way, take a look at Atlas Academy’s supreme masterpiece.

One of Atlas Academy's seven world-destroying weapons——【Logos React] closed successfully.

Next, we just need to wait for Cibia to come and clean up.

……

……

Outside, inside the Gravekeeper Village.

Gray and Bielsak, who were thrown out by Artoria, were very anxious.

But considering their own strength gap and the disappeared entrance to the corridor, they could do nothing but stay outside and worry, which was of no use.

Fortunately, the movement below did not last too long. After several shakings, it returned to calm.

However, Biersak and Gray, who were guarding the exit, still didn't see Xia Yuan and Artoria, so they could only wait anxiously.

A long time passed, maybe a few hours later.

So when the underground tunnel exit had completely collapsed, an explosion sounded in the tombkeeper's village.

Accompanied by the sky-high firelight and the concussive dust and smoke, only a large hole in the ground that was tens of meters long could be seen opening a large hole in the center of the village, where the victors made their triumphant return.

"It's too exaggerated. Master, he actually rushed out of the ground in such a ridiculous way."

Xia Yuan, who was in mid-air, was grabbing Artoria's arm, dragging her petite body and jumping out of the cave.

Hearing Artoria's complaints next to him, Xia Yuan just smiled lightly and explained:" Sorry, Al, after all, the entrance and exit below have completely collapsed. We can't get out without directly punching through the ground."

"I know, but……"

They landed on the high tower together and looked at the residents of the Tomb Keeper Village who were holding torches and gathering towards them, looking helpless.

The movement just now shocked the entire village, and there was no way to hide it.

This makes Artoria a little worried

"Don't worry, these residents will have someone to deal with it."

Knowing Artoria's concerns, Xia Yuan comforted him with a smile.

"Really?"

"Is that big brother?"

"Your Excellency Xia Yuan and King Arthur?!"

Gray and Bielsak masters and apprentices were also hurriedly coming, but they saw the residents gathered and the two people standing on the tower, and they were also helpless.

It caused such a big movement, and the situation was no longer the same. There is nothing he can do to hide it.

What should he do? Tell everyone what happened underground.

If he tells them the fact that Gray cannot become King Arthur's witch, the Gravekeeper Village will definitely fall into a bigger trap. In a panic, it was unimaginable what the end of a thousand years of hope would be like.

He could only pray silently in his heart that Xia Yuan should take Artoria away from here and not do anything unnecessary.

"What should we do? Master, if they are allowed to gather again,……"

At this moment, Arturia also looked ugly.

Having experienced despair, she also understands the tragedy of falling when her expectations are shattered.

When she said this, Xia Yuan just smiled, which made her even more anxious.

"What are you still laughing at? Is this the time to laugh?"

"Don't worry Al, I know your worries, and I also understand your tenderness and debt to them."

"But please believe me, I will take care of things here, I can assure you"

"Look, aren't the experts who are good at handling this matter already here?"

Hearing these words, Artoria seemed to suddenly sense something, and slowly opened her eyes. Then, amidst Xia Yuan's reminder, she looked at the white figure running out of the big hole.

That was……

"Hello everyone, your favorite flower magician, Brother Merlin, is here again! Merlin climbed out and looked at the residents who were gathering towards him. He quickly distanced himself and jumped to a suitable position.

He raised his head and hit Arturia and Xia Yuan who were high up. He said hello, and then just like Xia Yuan entrusted him, he recited a spell to prepare to deal with the immediate trouble.

"I really like to make trouble for others, but who makes us friends?"

"In this case, you can try this magic trick."

As Merlin recited the incantation, and as a burst of fragrant fragrance spread into his nostrils, the residents below were shocked, because the night sky had become brighter, and they were in a sea of flowers, and in the blink of an eye there were countless petals. broke into their field of vision

"Floral? There is also light, what are these?"

"And these petals?"

"There are a lot of them, and they are still pink. I can’t tell how many there are. If……"

The tombkeepers never expected that so many petals would break into their field of vision, and the number was still increasing, even to the point where they filled the entire field of view.

I can't see anything. What happened?

Looking down at the tombkeeper village that was in chaos, Merlin's raised hand slowly fell down at this moment.

He put his thumb up to his mouth

"Shhh~"

"Have a good sleep and you will forget everything when you wake up."

After extinguishing the last light from his fingertips, Merlin turned his back. The remaining magic power of this body had completely disappeared, and his consciousness returned to Avalon.

Then the entire Tombkeeper Village fell into a deep sleep at this moment. In the middle of the night, they fell asleep together like flowing water, and everyone's consciousness entered the same dream.

Let Merlin use illusions to hypnotize the living creatures in the entire village at the same time, so that no one would remember this sudden and huge unblocking. There will be no questioning of what happened underground.

What happened here will fill their memories with the most acceptable reason.

As for the issue of accountability for the Magic Association caused by the riots in Wales, let Kenneth. It would be good if they took the responsibility to settle things with Yulipis.

As long as it was Xia Yuan's order, they would not refuse.

In short, the matter was settled satisfactorily.

……

……

The matter was resolved successfully. After last night's big incident,���Except for the few insiders who had entered the underground corridor together, Merlin used illusion hypnosis to replace the memories of all the gravekeepers in the entire village.

As for the huge crack, Xia Yuan used earth magic to close it again afterwards.

Although the memories of those who knew about it were erased, the [Logos react] that had been stored underground for a long time was also taken to a safe place by Xia Yuan and temporarily borrowed according to Zibia's arrangement.

It won't take long for the top brass of the Gravekeeper Village to discover this anomaly. At that time, it will be inevitable to conduct a thorough investigation of the entire village in order to find the prisoner.

Although the entire Gravekeeper Village combined is not enough for him to clear the area with a few magic spells, Xia Yuan will not attack the Gravekeeper Village because of the friendship between Artoria and Gray.

After all, they are all poor people who have been imprisoned for thousands of years, so why bother them.

Location: The church where Besanak lives.

Two outsiders, Xia Yuan and Artoria, are hiding here.

Before leaving, Biersak still had a lot to say to these two people.

"King, are you leaving?"

Besanak glanced at Artoria who was silent, with some anxiety on his face, and lowered his head and said

"Sorry, Wang, for making you see such ugly behavior after your return. It's really shameful that the entire village has been loyal to you based on that deformed expectation."

"The Logos react currently stored in the underground corridor has also been taken away by your companions"

"This matter cannot be hidden, and it is only a matter of time before it is discovered, so please leave this land."

"Sorry, Lord Belsac."

Artoria looked at the old man in front of her with some guilt.

Last night, because she was shocked by the truth told by Merlin, and because she couldn't control her emotions when she saw her sister, she ended up forgetting about her affairs. Asking her sister how to break the curse,

Arturia instinctively felt ashamed when she saw her again.

"No, you don’t need to apologize, it’s us, the gravekeepers, who are really at fault."Bersak shook his head and said

"The pain you have borne far exceeds that of us gravekeepers. Even the faith of the tombkeepers is nothing more than a shackles imposed on you."

"I know each other's despicableness, but in the end, I still want to boldly propose a small wish to you, hoping that you will fulfill it."

"What's the matter? You say it."Artoria nodded.

"Please leave, take Gray with your companions, and don't come back until you find a way to lift the curse."

"Leave with Gray?"

Hearing this request, Artoria was slightly startled, and looked at Gray sitting next to Bielsak with some doubts.

"Yes, this child has no reason to remain trapped in this land. The device stored in the underground corridor has stopped, your companions have also told the truth, and you have been resurrected. There is no need to continue the persistence and long-cherished wish of the tombkeeper family. In this way, Gray's mission as a container naturally does not need to continue."

Bersak shook his head slightly and continued:"There are many rotten guys in the village. When they find that the underground device disappears, they will realize that their long-cherished wish can no longer be fulfilled. Until then, more scrutiny will be thrust upon Grey. That is not a responsibility this child can bear, so please take her away.

Xia Yuan said:"Do you mean that because the villagers have lost their goal, they will put more attention and expectations on Gray, just like they worship King Arthur?""

"Yes."Bersak nodded.

"Things have happened. If this child continues to stay here, she will face an even more tragic life, and may even completely lose her life as Gray."

"I once accepted Gray as my disciple and named her as the next gravekeeper just to alleviate this situation. But the current situation is beyond my control, so I hope she can leave here"

"I promise you, Lord Bernak, I am willing to swear an oath in the name of a knight to protect her in the future."Artoria nodded solemnly and made a promise.

The King of Knights is noble, and her oath is trustworthy.

With Artoria's guarantee, Biersak's frown relaxed.

"Thank you for your generosity, my king"

"Okay, I also agree to your request, I will take Gray away from this land."

Xia Yuan had already walked to the silent Gray, reached out and rubbed her head.

He said:"No one's life is doomed. The little bird in the iron cage has been isolated for such a long time. In the years, of course, I will look forward to the freedom of the blue sky, rather than being trapped in this prison. It's really time for her to go out and fly in the sky"

"Don't worry, I still have some say in the Clock Tower, so arranging Gray's future life won't be a problem. As for safety, Gray is protected by Ad and Artoria, so no magician can harm her."

"That’s up to you."Bersak nodded.

"Well, but more than these little things, I want to respect Gray's wishes."

Xia Yuan leaned down slightly and looked at Gray's eyes seriously.

"Can you talk to me for a minute? Gray, about your own opinions and choices"

"Do you want to leave this land?"

"Big brother, I……"

Gray gritted her teeth and raised her head, which had been lowered, at this moment. She mustered up the courage to look at Xia Yuan's eyes seriously.

This girl, who had always been timid, made her own choice.
