My Destiny Illustrated Book of Shape Moon

Chapter 136 Atonement and the selection of candidates

That was the fear that cursed Lancelot for the rest of his life.

That was the source of Lancelot's descent into madness.

In Celtic mythology, Finn, who had his fiancée taken away, refused to save Diarmuid, knocked over the fountain of life twice, and sent the chief of the Fiona Knights to hell with his own hands.

However, Lancelot, who had an affair with Princess Guinevere and defected, was forgiven by King Arthur. The clean and pure king said that he and the princess would be forgiven.

[If it is your action, then it must be sincere. I believe you. 】

To this day, Lancelot still can't believe it.

That was true. There was no falsehood in the king's words. The king was blessing them, blessing the unfaithful knight and princess, as if he felt at ease that that was the most correct outcome.

...If I were in the same position as the king, could I forgive the betrayer?

No, that premise is wrong. The king is different from us in this premise. He is neither a human being nor raised as a human being.

She is a king who exists only to protect the country. After all, she has hidden her true identity for ten years and strangled herself for that reason just to protect the people.

He who does not know the happiness of being a human being loves the happiness of people.

Ah, that petite and beautiful king is like a monster, a monster that surpasses Vortigern——

A sad monster that twists and tramples on its own way of existence.

I don't have the courage to face the king anymore.

Therefore, I chose to run away because of fear. In the end, I missed the battle of Kamlan and the final farewell to the king.

But this time, I won't run away no matter what.

With a loud noise, the knight in armor knelt down on one knee, using the most solemn etiquette to beg his beloved king for salvation.

"I didn't catch up with the Battle of the Sword Fence, which is a lifelong regret. So this time, please let me open the way for you. King, if you can allow me, maybe I can pay back some of the sins I have carried." ."

Saber looked at Lancelot who was kneeling and opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.

She wanted to say, as before, that Lancelot was not at fault, that he did not need to forgive or pay for his sins. However, Lancelot's attitude told her that this was wrong, so what should she do?

The diamond-shaped space unfolded, and a young man with white hair and golden eyes stepped out of it and spoke:

"This is a very simple question, Saber, lawbreakers should be punished, and rebels should be punished. There is an old saying in China that 'paying for crime makes meritorious service'. This is the path chosen by Lancelot. Do you still want to refuse? Do you still want to go against his wishes and drive your knight into madness?"

These words struck Saber's heart like a bolt of lightning, and she suddenly realized her own shallowness. The so-called forgiveness might be as poisonous as poison in the eyes of others.

The act of imposing your will on others is not tolerance, but oppression.

"Lancelot, I allow you to commit your crimes and serve with merit. If you can fight side by side with me, I will forgive your crimes, my dear friend."

Hearing this, Lancelot finally showed a cheerful smile.

His wish in this Holy Grail War has come true at this moment!

"As you command, my king! I, Lancelot, will do my best to fight for you!"

————

Now that the plan to assassinate Iskandar has failed, Sakutsu, Lancelot, Saber and Miyu have also reunited. While dealing with the offensive of Aristotle and the priests, they discussed briefly and soon A decision was made.

That's a tough fight!

Although facing an army of tens of thousands, even if Shuoyue Fang has four servant-level combat capabilities, it will be useless, but the same is true for Iskandar Fang - to support an inherent barrier of this scale, even the heroic spirits in this world must Sharing the burden together will not last long.

Right now, it’s about seeing who can have the last laugh.

"I have a proposal for this, and that is rotation." Sakuyue stood by Miyu's side, and Rho Aias opened up to block the overwhelming spears and magic for everyone, "The small number of people is certainly a shortcoming, but from now on On the other hand, the area we are affected by is also very small."

"I see... After escaping from the siege, as long as there are people guarding the front, we can cope with the army's offensive." Lancelot, who once cooperated with Shuo Yue, annihilated three thousand companion cavalry, and hindered the advance of Antigonus and others. Te suddenly understood, "Especially the thermal weapons that Mr. Shuo Yue brought out, in my hands, are really an excellent weapon to deal with the army."

"More than that, the time has almost passed since the beginning of the 'King's Army'." Saber held the holy sword in her hand and stared at Iskandar who was giving orders in the distance. "If it were me, I would definitely start to tighten it now. Armed forces, we plan to decide the outcome."

If they wait until the conquering king's army arrives, they will have no choice but to face defeat as they are attacked from both sides.

"Shuoyue, can your magic still work? We need to break away from the harassment as soon as possible."

"Although it's possible, it's not possible. That old man has been interfering with space." Shuo Yue pursed her lips in the direction of Aristotle.

"In other words, do you have to kill Aristotle first..."

"But it's hard to handle. He is surrounded by priests."

Lancelot and Saber looked solemn.

Although they are all Holy Sword Users, the amount of magic power each master can bear is extremely limited. If they release their Noble Phantasm now, it may be difficult to recover from the King of Conqueror's general attack.

"In that case, let me go." Shuo Yue said in a relaxed tone, "He is just a mere scholar. I have plenty of ways to deal with him."

"Then I'm begging you, Shuo Yueqing, please be sure to pay attention to your safety."

Sir?

Shuo Yue was stunned, looking at Dai Mao with a serious face, the smile at the corner of his mouth suddenly became a little deeper.

"As you command, my king."

The next moment, he turned into an afterimage and rushed towards Aristotle, who was under heavy protection.

After he left, Lancelot glanced at Miyu, and finally couldn't help but said:

"King, what did you call Your Excellency Shuo Yue just now?"

"Well, what's the problem?" Saber tilted her head in confusion. After resolving the grudge with Lancelot, she obviously felt a lot more relaxed.

"Shuo Yueqing, is that a title that is reserved for us Knights of the Round Table?"

"Ah!" It was only then that Saber finally realized, "But, maybe it's because he called me 'my king', so he unconsciously..."

"Your Excellency Shuoyue?" Lancelot couldn't help but smile narrowly when he heard this, "It seems that even such a proud person is willing to follow your footsteps. Ah, it's just like me back then. Same."

Although he has been affected by madness, Lancelot has only lost his mind, but he still remembers the past.

No one knows better than him what kind of efforts that young man puts in every day.

To become an unparalleled warrior, all you need is talent and hard work.

To become a wise strategist, what you need is planning and deduction.

And what that young man had was by no means as simple as the sum of the two.

Even if he regains his sense, he dare not say that he can beat Shuo Yue or this young man who is not even a heroic spirit.

Suddenly, Lancelot's heart moved, and he suddenly looked at Shuo Yue in the distance, and glanced at his king with a strange look.

He and Kariya will definitely lose - the effect of the Command Spell can only last for a while, and Berserker, who has returned to chaos, and the Master who has lost the Command Spell, will never be able to win the Holy Grail War where strong men gather.

But Lancelot didn't feel unwilling. His wish had come true, but there was still someone in his heart who was worried.

That is the one who appears as Saber, their king.

Kariya's current wish is wrong. Although he understands and does not intend to stop it, their defeat is inevitable - but the king is different. Someone must guard the king and accompany her until the last moment, until this serious and stubborn king Until you can untie your knot.

So, who will protect the king?

It seems he has found the right person.
