Altria quickly returned to the manor.

For this day, she has been trained for fifteen years, so she can't be late.

Her background is both complicated and special.

Why do you want to pretend to be a man? Why do you start practicing swords when you are sensible, learn about national affairs, and abandon your self-feelings as a human being?

This need not be mentioned.

Everything is for today.

In order to pull out the king's sword, she was born into the world.

She didn't know the looks of her parents.

King Youser and Merlin have the purpose of "king of ideals". She was designed and manufactured for this purpose.

In fact, it was more like the regret or wish of her father, King Yusho, and she could not substitute for her feelings.

I don't feel any special sense of mission or touch for Merlin's teachings.

In the fifteen years, the only things that have been inspiring her are the ordinary days spent with her adoptive father Aktor and his righteous brother, the comfort of the Genievilles who have met this year, and the comfort of the people living in the town. Frolics.

It's different from longing or love.

It's just that things like that seem to be good in her eyes.

She didn't want to be a member of the town or participate in it. She didn't have that desire. Even though she sometimes portrayed such scenes in her mind, she calmly closed the lid.

Because she knew from the bottom of her heart that if that were the case, she would only lose all the games.

Since she was a child, although she was not smart, she worked very hard. She tried her best to practice swordsmanship and riding skills. She would memorize every teaching Merlin said by rote several times.

Therefore, she said to herself that she couldn't do only that.

That is to live like a human being.

The dragon is made, it is the responsibility that is pinned.

Just--

As soon as I remembered the scene in which Rishiro was loved by the people in the dream, Altria couldn't help but feel a little self-doubt.

"That...maybe the look of an ideal king..."

After fifteen years of teaching, Altria did not understand what kind of character is a king. She was awarded the Wang's education, and she was also endowed with Wang's qualities as much as possible.

However, she still has no real sense of Wang's posture until now.

Her driving force is different from that of King Youser.

The reason for her to become a king is not the desire to dominate as a person, nor the sense of obligation held by the leader, nor the intoxication of faith.

Her driving force is nothing but trivial things.

The fifteen years of life that cannot be spent as a human being is everything to her.

She picked up the sword and had only one reason to wear the crown.

Just looking at people's lives will give rise to power, and there will be a motivation to move forward. What she wants to do can be confirmed even if she can't say it.

This is the answer that the king is cultivating by the girl named Altria, full of humanity, and pursued by the king.

Altria returned to the manor and took the gun. Just as he was about to ride the horse back, he glanced to the side subconsciously, and was taken aback.

I saw Merlin standing next to her, looking at her with a smile.

"Merlin, why are you here?" Altria was very strange, "didn't you preside over the sword-drawing ceremony?"

"The Archbishop of Cantreber is already there. It doesn't matter whether I go or not. Before that, I have something I want to show you." Merlin said.

"What? Can't you come back? The ceremony has almost begun." Altria said.

"I won't hurt you, so don't worry." Merlin said, "I have to tell you. Once you pick up the sword, you will no longer be a human until the end. Not only that, once you pick it up, you Will be hated by everyone and welcome a tragic death."

An image flashed in front of Altria's eyes, and Merlin used magic to let her consciousness see the tragic future she was about to welcome after she took up the sword.

This is not advice, but a prophecy.

If she picks up that sword, no matter how she struggles, she will meet the reality of tragic death alone.

Altria's expression was distorted with fear.

It's different from the plan set by Youser.

In Yusor's plan, this prophecy was not included at all.

The chosen ceremony was very simple, Merlin only needed to follow the predetermined plan and push her along.

So, why did he do so many things in one fell swoop?

Merlin didn't know it himself.

But no matter what, since it has already happened, there is no way.

She will be afraid of her future and change her mind, right?

Do you feel that it is too early to become a king and you are afraid, or will you run away from the path of becoming a king?

However, it is useless on either side.

This is already destined.

Even if he escaped at this moment, Merlin only needed to find another opportunity to prepare for the king's choice.

But...

"—No!"

Altria said.

Rather than frighten her, Merlin's predictions prompted her to make up her mind.

"Is that okay?" Merlin asked.
