Ambition of the King of Knights

Although Arthur has known for a long time what kind of existence human beings are in the eyes of the Greek gods and how narcissistic they are, but because of the unique and special treatment of Athena and Hades, he is relatively indifferent to the senses of the gods. It's not that bad, after all, what he's doing now is just a battle for survival between different races, and it doesn't involve personal preference, but...

"I didn't expect it, should I say it's Athena?" Biolet looked at the underworld fighter respectfully saluting Arthur in front of him, with a complicated tone, "I didn't expect that even the guardian of 'Uranus', Partita, belonged to Athena people."

#It turns out that the underworld has long been infiltrated#

#So powerful Ye Xiao turned out to be a deadly enemy, no, someone from the new owner’s partner#

#Fortunately sister witty should change camp, otherwise I don’t know how to die#

It can't be blamed that Baioret's heart is so subtle and complicated. Women are always inferior to men because of the innate physical gap, which makes excellent and powerful women basically famous and overwhelmingly powerful. Only Only in this way can we get ahead!The Perdita in front of me... Baioret has also dealt with it before.

As a 15cm royal sister at the age of 180, Baioret is extremely confident in her own strength. She once heard the name of the guardian of "Uranus" and saw the other party with a height of only 172cm and a gentle and gentle face. When she looked like this, in fact, she proposed to fight with the idea of ​​pointing out female compatriots who had finally made it to the top, and then——she was hanged and beaten.

You must know that Baijie's prestige can almost beat all the underworld fighters below the Big Three, but in the end she couldn't beat Perdita!

Well, then, the high master among the masters is the original old enemy...

Although Sister Bai felt like jumping out of a deep pit, she also felt like being played badly for no reason.

"You are the mother of Tianma in this life, right?"

Arthur didn't know Baioret's complicated mental journey. In fact, from the fact that the other party didn't directly switch to Sanctuary, he could see that even though he knew that the underworld was a sunken ship and wanted to jump out, he didn't have a good impression of Sanctuary. Arthur is a human being, otherwise she might not be able to make up her mind so quickly.

It's just that Arthur's focus is a little different.

When he said that he wanted to come to the underworld first, Athena told him the pawn she had buried in the underworld with great confidence——Petita, the biological mother of Tianma's life, Yexiao Perdita. She did not specifically say anything about Perdita. Arrangement, but Arthur can guess one or two, but if it is the most unacceptable...

"You are lurking here, and Tianma doesn't know about it. As the trump card of the sanctuary, if Tianma enters the underworld and confronts you, how will he deal with it?" Arthur looked at Perdita with burning eyes , "Will you reveal your identity to him, and then attack the underworld together?"

"No. If this is necessary, then it is meaningless for me to lurk in the underworld."

Partita didn't quite understand why Lord Athena's envoy would ask this question, but since the goddess said that she was someone she could trust, she answered truthfully.

"My duty is to train Tianma. Only as an enemy can I stimulate Tianma's most powerful potential while ensuring that he does not die young."

In fact, in the final analysis, jihad is more about who has bigger fists, even Athena, the goddess of wisdom, so their central idea will not be stealing information, or some countermeasures, but naked fist education, so that Perdita's trump card of cultivating Pegasus is the most important purpose.

"Too cruel."

"No, at the moment of allegiance to the goddess, I already had the consciousness to give my life. The same is true for Pegasus. If dying under his hands can make him grow more, then I will only be gratified by the hope of human beings." Patty Ta smiled gently, "You don't have to feel sorry for my sacrifice, this is the duty of our saints."

"That's why I said cruel, not referring to you, or not just referring to you." Arthur sighed softly, "This kind of thing is too cruel for Tianma."

"He is my child! So I understand." Perdita is stubborn, she looks quite Yamato Nadeko temperament, her inner and outer appearance are completely opposite, "His strength will definitely allow him to walk longer go down—”

"But you must have planned to reveal the fact that you are not a traitor at the last moment, right? You didn't intend to give him a choice."

Arthur seems to have seen Tenma fighting his mother in pain for unavoidable reasons, and when his potential was unleashed and his power was raised to a higher level, his mother who was about to die told him the truth—this is It can be said to be an inevitable result, because without knowing the premise of his mother's difficulties, Tenma will not hold back, otherwise he will die, and Perdita will not kill him. In this case, I want to know the result , when the battle gets intense, the weaker Pegasus will definitely have to go all out, and it is normal to be unable to stop.

In the dark, he seemed to see the future that was supposed to go...

Without Arthur's intervention, after Perdita was knocked down by Pegasus wearing the "Holy Cloth" with the "Pegasus Meteor Fist", the consciousness was conveyed to Pegasus's brain, and Pegasus understood the painstaking efforts of his mother—— Partita's true identity is Athena's subordinate "Night Owl". She did not betray Athena. She used bitter tricks to complete the plan and fought against Pegasus in an almost ruthless way. The purpose is to make Pegasus grow enough to be able to wear "Holy Cloth", in the end, Perdita completed her mission and passed away as a mother without regret...

Well, Perdita is fine, what about Pegasus?

"You do not understand--"

"It's because I understand that I'm saying that."

Perdita was interrupted by Arthur when he was about to say something, and said seriously: "If this is a necessary sacrifice and burden, it should be his own decision, not forced by anyone, or unconsciously. bear this guilt."

The sin of parricide is not so strong that one or two sentences can turn the page lightly. Sometimes, when Arthur recalled the past, he couldn't help but recall that when he was trying to stop the aggression at the last time, his desperate consumption The practice of longevity itself contains some kind of guilt.

Sometimes the living are the most tormented.

He once made a choice between the country and Morgan, and then killed his sister, so until he died, he carried an unspeakable burden in his heart. Even the suicide of the Holy Grail War could not erase this guilt. He has rich experience. If he will be condemned and tortured by his conscience, even if he always thinks he is right, but he still can't face his own heart, then if Tianma really wants to fight because of this concealed "for your own good" and "for the victory of Sanctuary" What kind of mood did you feel when you killed your own mother?

In short, it will not be so wonderful.

——That's why I'm standing here!I want to change the fate of this tragedy!

Regardless of whether Tianma thinks it is worth it or whether Sanyu thinks it should be taken for granted, Arthur always believes that it is better to leave things like war to adults. Tianma is just a 15-year-old child. If it is not Athena, he must be attached When Sasha appeared, he didn't even want Sasha to get involved in such a complicated struggle. This could be said to be a kind of protective desire.

"At least now you don't need to do it extravagantly, we don't lack a fighting force of Pegasus."

Looking at Perdita who bowed her head silently, Arthur warned her. Judging from her faith, the other party is undoubtedly a firm believer in Athena. Although she also has a loving side to Tianma as a mother, she can do that for the undercover trick. To such an extent... I really can't say for certain, if it is a fanatic, it will be very troublesome.

"Now you just have to take my orders, Perdita, I need you—"

……

"What do you say you want to be alone, just to hold me?"

Arthur looked puzzled at Nero, who was holding him tightly. They were not in the consciousness space, but in the underworld. In fact, it was not safe to talk like this, but Nero insisted on using the entity who had realized the eighth sense to make peace with him. Arthur contacted, but he couldn't resist before agreeing.

"I just want to hug you." Nero silently pressed Arthur's head to his chest, his eyes darkened, "I just love you, so I want to hug you."

"..."

"Tianma would be very painful if he went that way, so how painful was it for you? Arthur."

No one knows better than Nero what kind of person Arthur is, how brave, determined, decisive and proud he is, and how much guilt and self-denial it is that makes you now, after you have committed suicide, will you Too timid to even see Morgan again?

It's hard to say whether Arthur is afraid of hearing Morgan's denial, or worried about hearing Morgan's forgiveness and clearing up - Nero suddenly understands that perhaps Arthur has never felt in his heart that he is entitled to be forgiven.

Nero is very aware of Morgan's feelings for Arthur, so he has no doubts that Morgan will forgive his brother. He believes that Arthur also understands, but...

"You're contradicting." Nero touched the blond hair that was no longer brilliant, and said gently, "I thought it was weird at first, but now that I think about it, your act of suicide and taking me away can't be said to be for the sake of Morgan. , you're just running away."

It's hard to imagine that King Arthur would have a side of escapism, so including Nero, even Gilgamesh and Enkidu, or Lancelot and Mordred who only learned about it later, they all think this It was King Arthur who signaled that he and Morgan should settle the matter, that they would not owe each other next time, that they would fight when they should, and laugh when they should, but in fact, that was the case.

Otherwise, Arthur, who hates loneliness and likes to be with his knights, why has he never used that treasure once in the underworld to drink tea with his old friends?

If Arthur hadn't committed suicide at that time, he would have killed Morgan again for the purpose of preventing Morgan from subverting reality, but...he couldn't bear it, he didn't want to kill his relatives in such an extreme way again, even if they had already The same goes for death.

Therefore, Arthur's seemingly willful act of breaking the law with a clean knife is actually just to escape from having to fight with Wang Jie again, but he entrusted the task of ending Morgan to Matou Kariya, the MASTER.

This can be said to be a victory of ingenuity, but it is definitely not the victory of King Arthur-it is probably the first time that King Arthur has avoided a battle, right?

Perhaps it is because Arthur has always been so comfortable and powerful that everyone, including him, thinks that King Arthur is strong enough to let go of those unnecessary emotions, but...

Nero even thought that Arthur had a faint feeling that he didn't want Morgan to forgive him so that he could continue to be blamed by Morgan. It seemed that only in this way could he feel less guilty, so he was afraid of seeing Morgan. Afraid of being forgiven by Morgan, he felt that he did not deserve to be forgiven.

"Sorry, I just found out now." The corner of Nero's mouth curled up, "Although it's bad to say that, I'm still very happy. Your friends, knights, daughters, and even relatives may not have seen through it. It's something... As expected, only my lover can understand it!"

"...You're right, Nero, maybe I don't know it myself, I'm actually...probably not as invincible as I thought..."

"I just realized, Arthur, you are not as strong as we imagined—but I don't think that is a bad thing." Nero smiled brightly, and gently picked up Arthur's holy sword, "I think You can rely on me more...well, it’s not impossible to forcefully add those eyes-obscuring guys.”

"The holy sword... is transforming?"

Arthur looked at the scattered and petrified holy swords and was stunned for a moment. Shouldn't they be broken?Teacher Meilin said that if the holy sword is used in an unjust war, or if the sword holder is not strong enough, it will break. Just now, he almost thought that he would lose this treasure forever.

Nero smiled at the corner of his mouth, and slapped himself on the head, looking quite annoyed, and finally apologized to Arthur with a sigh.

"I'm sorry, it's also my fault, and of course Merlin's, we only taught you how to become stronger and how to be more dazzling, but we forgot to tell you——sometimes, admitting your own shortcomings is also a It’s so powerful! At least, the holy sword has been unsealed, hasn’t it?”

Arthur looked at the holy sword that once again radiated hope in his hands, and he couldn't speak for a long time. Perhaps the future he "saw" just now was the original destiny of this world, and Hades said at that time that he had the ability to "reversal" The power of fate is not a joke. When he rejected the plan in a strong tone to Perdita just now, he vaguely felt that the already crooked fate line disappeared directly.

The future has been reshuffled...

"Actually, Arthur, you are really afraid of Morgan, but you have been putting on airs so that no one can see it." Nero blinked with a smile, and squeezed Arthur's hand, "Don't be obsessed with twelve numbers Alright, how about we get out that non-treasure of yours together and have a look?"

"..."

"Don't be afraid of losing face or anything, I'm with you."

"it is good……"

Nero, as long as you are by my side, I have nothing to fear.

The author has something to say: Enen, Yaoma is responsible for his career, of course he has his share, but he belongs to the intelligence and planning, and he is really hands-on...Of course one perdita is not enough, Yaoma wants to subvert The gods of Olympus, if he had the ability to fight Arthur, he would have been able to rush up to Zeus and the others by himself. Do you still need to make small moves secretly?

And the thug summoned by Yaoma is the final boss that Arthur wants to fight... In fact, that thug is a bit of a hang~~~ Well, there is still a reason, anyway, Yaoma can control time and space or something.

small theater:

Nero: Why didn't you tell me earlier?Tell me earlier that I have already brushed the copy of Morgan with you.

Arthur: ...sorry, embarrassing...

Nero: It's okay, I'm with you, you will have nothing to fear!

Arthur: ...well, yes. (In other words, what if Miss Morgan empathizes with Nero? There is always a feeling of being double NTR)
