Under the Root

[Caster sends news that the guests have arrived at Liudong Temple. ] Diarmuid's voice was a little stiff, even if he was not involved in this kind of conspiracy.But Diarmuid, who was a knight, was also ashamed of his indifference.

[Are you shaking?my knight. ] This stiffness was keenly captured by Li Lin.

[Forgive me, my lord.But this kind of thing...]

[Remember, knight.This is her own choice. Although I have provided conditions, it is her who makes the final decision.She chose us for "love", but what right do you have to deny her "love"? ] Li Lin's voice was rarely accused.

[….I'm sorry, Mr. Li Lin. ] Diarmuid said apologetically.

[Nothing happened] Li Lin cut off the communication, then looked up and saw the beautiful sunset over the Fuyuki Bridge.

The time to easily tease the little lion is coming to an end, Li Lin, who was walking on the bridge holding Artoria's hand, felt so emotional in his heart, and then stopped.

"What's the matter, Li Lin?" Artoria asked suspiciously.

"Sorry, you got dumped, Saber." Li Lin turned around and said expressionlessly.

At this time, the fatherly "boyfriend" Li Lin whom Artoria was attracted to has disappeared, replaced by the "Magician" Li Lin, the master of the Holy Grail War caster and lancer.

"Varied...."

Hearing this sentence, the slender palm held by Li Lin unconsciously tightened first, and then clenched into a fist.

"Is it."

Arturia closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, the solemn "Knight King" also returned to the Holy Grail War.

"Are you... are you ready?"

"No, there is still the final process." Li Lin said with a smile: "Strike the Knight King Artoria."

"Are you going to fight again? If you start a war, don't think that I will hold back because of the previous incident, Li Lin." The King of Knights smiled awe-inspiringly. "I still have things that must be done with the Holy Grail, but I won't fall here because of personal factors."

"Save your hometown, England, and let the Holy Grail choose a new knight king. I'm right, knight king Artoria." Li Lin said the reason Artoria didn't say.

"How do you know!" The knight who had his wish broken looked at Li Lin with very surprised eyes, she was sure that she had never told him this wish.

"I just know." Li Lin put his index finger in front of his lips, as if he would never say anything.

"Well....."

"But, Artoria, let me ask you, is it really okay for you to do this?"

"Saving my country, my hometown, is my duty as the king of Britain. No one can insult it." Faced with Li Lin's denial, Arturia showed obvious anger on her face.

"No." Li Lin shook his head, "I mean, is it really good to choose another king? Lily, have you ever thought that you were actually the best king in England in that era."

"How is this possible?!" Artoria retorted without thinking.

"How impossible! You are the one who stabilized the domestic turmoil, you were the one who gathered the Knights of the Round Table, and you were the one who won twelve victories and expelled the Saxons. Ask yourself, there is a person in your heart who can win Merlin's support, The one who won the support of the Knights of the Round Table and bestowed England with unprecedented prosperity and prosperity?"

"But I was the one who brought England into division and destruction!" Artoria yelled.

"So what?" Li Lin shrugged indifferently, "What is the reason for the division and destruction of England, have you never thought about it?"

"..."

"Since you have thought about it, go back to the past to change it, destroy it, and nip it in the bud for your country."

"But..." I don't know, even now I don't know where my country started to go astray.

"Think about it if you don't know, and ask others for advice. And don't you read the historical facts? Can't you see how all the people in the future have evaluated the history of King Arthur's existence?" As if seeing through Artoria Li Lin reprimanded the King of Knights just like reprimanding the dull students in the clock tower.

"Hmm..." I can't refute it. There is no doubt that Li Lin's plan is more feasible and operable than the "wish" proposed by himself who lost his confidence.

"However, in order to fulfill your wish, you must still live in your time, Lily."

"What do you mean?" Arturia raised her head in confusion after being a little dazed by Li Lin's series of blows, and asked in confusion.

"The Holy Grail, or the third method, although it can accomplish miracles beyond the imagination of ordinary people, it does not have the ability to change the history you are in, and it is even impossible for you to go back to the past." Li Lin said cruelly After uncovering the bloody facts, Saber's wish could not be realized from the very beginning.

"That's impossible! What evidence do you have!" Artoria retorted subconsciously.

"I don't have evidence, and I don't need evidence. I'm just telling you a fact. You who are pursuing the Holy Grail have gone in the wrong direction from the beginning. Of course, you don't have to believe me." Li Lin said in a tone that had nothing to do with him Said.

"But if you believe me, then give up the Holy Grail, and then work hard to survive in your era, and find a real solution that can save your hometown. For example, reach the root or something."

"...Is this your blow? Li Lin, let me give up my pursuit of the Holy Grail."

The King of Knights fixed his eyes on Li Lin, as if he wanted to see through the man in front of him again.

"Exactly." Li Lin nodded.

Li Lin didn't lie... This fact made the girl dizzy, and she would rather believe that everything Li Lin said was a lie.Because if this is true, what is the self who seeks the Holy Grail? ! ! !

Thus, the cruel facts plunged Arturia into an abyss from which she could not extricate herself. If this was Li Lin's scheme, it can be said that he has succeeded now.

But it was still the man in front of her who saved the girl.

The familiar touch once again occupied Artoria's lips.But unlike the previous kiss that was just touching, this time Li Lin's kiss was aggressive, as if to suck all the body fluid in the girl's mouth dry.

"Hmm." The kiss was accompanied by Li Lin's hands. When the girl kissed back in a daze, his fiery fingers brushed the girl's casual clothes, and started to make trouble mercilessly.

"!!!" Arturia was finally awakened from the trance when she was swipe her finger somewhere, and took a step back.

"What are you doing, Li Lin!" temporarily forgetting all her troubles, she shouted with shame and dissatisfaction.

"Ah, I just suddenly remembered that a girlfriend's duty also includes pleasing her boyfriend." On Li Lin's face was the hateful smile that Altria still remembered at the airport. "Why, want to escape such an obligation?"
