Chapter 68 The King’s Dominance (Third Update)

By now, Saber finally knew why the atmosphere between the two people was so strange, and the scene fell silent for a moment.

"Ah, Saber, I want to confirm...the destruction of Britain should have happened in your time, right? Was it when you ruled?"

"Yes! So I can't forgive myself."

Saber's tone became firmer upon hearing this.

"So I was unwilling to give in and wanted to change that ending! It was because of me that it led to that ending..."

Inadvertently, someone laughed, it was a vulgar laughter that ignored any understanding, and this continuous laughter came from Archer's mouth, which exuded golden light.

Facing the great humiliation, Saber's face was full of anger. The thing she cherished the most was actually laughed at by Archer.

The King of Knights established the enemy.

"...Archer, what's so funny!?"

Not minding Saber's anger, the Golden Heroic Spirit answered intermittently while laughing.

"A person who calls himself a king and is called a king by everyone actually says that he "regrets"? How can this not make me laugh?"

Next to Archer who was laughing non-stop, Rider also frowned and stared at Saber with some displeasure.

"Wait...wait for the King of Knights first. Do you want to deny the history you created?"

Saber, who has never had any doubts about her ideals, will naturally not be intimidated by him at this moment.

"Exactly, are you surprised? Is it ridiculous? As a king, the country I dedicated my life to has been destroyed. I mourn, what's wrong with it? Why are you laughing?"

"Hey, did you hear that? Rider, this little girl who calls herself the King of Knights just said that she would sacrifice herself for the country!"

Archer kept laughing, he never stopped.

What answered Archer was Rider's silence, which to Saber was as insulting as being laughed at.

"I don't see what's so funny. As a king, you should naturally stand up and work hard for the prosperity of your country."

"No, you're wrong."

Rider firmly and seriously denied her words.

"It's not the king who sacrifices himself, but the country and the people who dedicate everything to the king. Don't get it wrong."

"What did you say?!"

Saber couldn't hold back her anger anymore and she shouted loudly.

"Isn't that a tyrant! Rider, Archer, it's a big mistake for you to become a king like this!"

"Indeed, but we are not only tyrants, but also heroes."

Rider replied calmly, without even moving an eyebrow.

"So Saber, if a king is dissatisfied with the results of his governance of the country, it only means that he is a foolish king, worse than a tyrant."

Unlike Archer, who kept making mocking noises, Rider basically denied her. Saber frowned and retorted in a sharp tone.

"Iskandar, you...the empire you created was eventually split into four parts. Are you really not reconciled to this? Don't you want to do it all over again to save the country?"

"In no mood."

The Conqueror King replied without hesitation.

"If my decision and my ministers lead to such a result, then destruction is inevitable. I will mourn and shed tears, but I will never regret it."

"how come……"

"Not to mention trying to subvert history! Such stupid behavior is an insult to all humans in the era I built!"

Saber denied Rider's proud words.

"You only say this based on the glory of the warrior. The people will not think so. What they need is salvation."

"You mean they want the king's salvation?"

The conquering king shrugged and laughed.

"I don't understand...what's the point of this kind of thing?"

"This is the duty of a king!"

This time it was Saber's turn to speak proudly.

"Right governance, right order, this is what all subjects expect."

“So that’s the “right” effort for you?”

"You can say so. Only those who devote themselves to their ideals deserve to be king."

Rider shook his head, glanced at Archer who had stopped laughing but still kept his sarcastic smile, and then turned his attention to Xia Qing.

"Lancer, this king wants to devote himself to his so-called ideal. What do you think?"

Cu Chulainn heard this and replied seriously.

"People can understand law and order through the king. What the king embodies is not something that will disappear with the death of the king, but something more noble. Such a king is really a blessing to his subjects!"

Rider was silent for a few seconds, then nodded.

"Indeed, such a king is indeed an ideal king for his subjects, but... this is not the path of survival that people would choose."

Saber answered immediately.

"Yes, since you are born a king, you cannot expect to live the life of an ordinary person."

In order to become the perfect monarch and the embodiment of his ideals, he was willing to give up the life of a girl named Artoria.

She was forever changed the moment she pulled out the sword from the stone, and since then, she has become an undefeated legend, synonymous with hymns and dreams.

There have been pains and worries, but they contain the glory of victory, and the unchanging belief still supports her holding the sword.
