To be king and magician

【Woo, ok, I understand】

【Walk with you, I promise】

44. Count Merlin Wrath Laughs

within the stronghold.

Arthur and his round table, Artoria and her round table, plus members of Chaldea headed by Xia Chuanhu.

More than a dozen people are now gathered around an open-air dining table, looking at the Vortigern's eggs that Xia Chuanhu brought back from the crater were placed on the table at the moment.

"—that's basically what happened."

Xia Chuanhu briefly explained the matter between himself and Heidan.

After listening to Xia Chuanhu's narration, the Knights of the Round Table on both sides fell into different degrees of astonishment.

"That Vortigern actually...inherited his power to the next generation?" Arthur's face and eyes were full of disbelief, "It's incredible that he would make such a decision."

"Compared to this, what is even more incredible is that he actually let him leave the egg. Even if this is the result of making a wish to the Holy Grail, it is really unbelievable."

Vortigerm is the final device created by the British Isle to destroy itself, and in nature, it is impossible for a successor body to appear.

[I'm afraid I took advantage of the loophole]

Roman's voice sounded from the communication device on Fujimaru Tateka's wrist.

[If you want the next terminal device to appear, then it is definitely impossible, but if you want to leave an heir, it is completely fine.Leaving an heir, inheriting one's power to the next generation, engraving one's long-cherished wish of destroying Britain as an obsession into the spirit of the next generation—similar to the situation designated by the crown of a magician. 】

crown designation.

The noblest commandment of blood in the magic world.The original order held by the family line that has continued from before the Gregorian calendar until the extinction of the family must be sacrificed for that mission, a pride that is absolutely strict like a curse.

This is what crown designation means.

If the unborn new generation Vortigern in the egg is regarded as the first generation of magicians, then everything passed down to her by the dead first generation Vortigerm is the crown designation issued by him.

"So, Master, what is your purpose for bringing this egg back?" Arturia asked with a frown.

"Of course it is to discuss with you how to dispose of this egg."

Xia Chuanhu knocked on Heidan's shell, because it was useless this time, so Heidan didn't cry.

"The root of the formation of this singularity, the Holy Grail, is now inside this egg. Well...to put it bluntly, it is similar to Joan of Arc. The new generation of Vortigern will only appear based on the Holy Grail Life, her existence is also sustained by the Holy Grail, so—”

In order to solve the singularity, the Holy Grail must be recovered or destroyed, but in the current situation, to recover the Holy Grail, the egg must be broken first, and this process will inevitably cause harm to Vortigern.

The same goes for destroying the Holy Grail.

"Although the eggshell is very hard, I think it should be easy to break with a holy sword. The question is—is it really good?"

Xia Chuanhu's words made everyone present fall into silence.

To put it simply, it is the so-called morality.

Although she is Vortigern's successor, as far as the status quo is concerned, Vortigern II is undoubtedly harmless. Even judging from her words and deeds, she has no response to the obsession left by Vortigern at all, which is equivalent to a sinless life.

To take out the Holy Grail means to kill such an innocent and innocent life... This is not a decision that can be made at will.

"By the way, I voted for it."

Xia Chuanhu was the first to express his opinion.

"Even if it is harmless now, there is no guarantee that she will not be affected by Vortigerm's obsession after she is fully born. Maybe her spirit will be destroyed by Vortigerm's obsession on the way out of her shell." Infected, it will definitely be a huge trouble at that time, it might as well be here now."

Take precautions before they happen.

After thinking for a while, Mordred and the two Gao Wen also raised their hands.

"I have the same opinion as my father."

"I also agree with Your Excellency Xia Chuan's point of view."

"Me too."

There were thirteen people present—four from Arthur, five from Artoria, and four from Chaldea (without Mustard Seed).

Although it was not stated clearly, everyone present knew that if there was a point of view recognized by the seven people, that point of view would become the final decision.

After taking a deep breath, Fujimaru Tachika shook her head: "I object. Even if, as the minister said, Vortigern II may be affected by obsession, then it is only necessary for someone to guide her. It looks like we can have a conversation."

Vortigern II's intelligence is no different from that of a child, and her own personality has not been fully molded, and she is still a blank sheet of paper. If you don't want her to be dyed black, then dye her the correct color before then.

This is also a solution.

"Also, since the Holy Grail is in her body, taking her away from this singularity will also lead to the collapse of this singularity, right? It is not necessary to take out the Holy Grail."

[Theoretically, it is feasible, although it cannot be brought back through spiritual transfer, but it will be no problem if Xia Chuan brings it back]

Hearing what Roman said, Xia Chuanhu couldn't help being stunned: "I said... I just said I was going to smash it, but I turned back and asked me to take this egg back? And are you planning to smash it? It was placed in Chaldea?"

"At this stage, only our place can release it."

"Avalon is also possible." Artoria said, "Master, I think the method Fujimaru said is better, no matter how bad the future is, it is the future after all, it is not unchangeable, try it now It’s okay for a while, isn’t it?”

"Well, then it's my turn to clean up after something happens, right?"

It should sound like words full of disgust and impatience, but Xia Chuanhu said them in a helpless tone, with a look that he has become accustomed to, like an idiot father who finally compromised after being teased by his own children.

After sighing, Xia Chuanhu glanced at the people around him, and they all seemed to think that the latter solution was better.

(Didn't this make me, the two Gao Wenqings, and Mordred a little uncomfortable... I'm asking for boredom, and I also increased my workload by the way. Tentative)

"So, that's it, do you want to leave here with us, black egg."

【leave?where to go 】

"A place...full of fun guys."

【interesting place? 】

"Well, there is a doctor with unknown sexual orientation who likes to eat strawberry cake, there is a genius who transforms himself into a woman when he is obviously a man, and there is a smoker who completely replaces his body with a doll... In short, there is All kinds of people."

Doctor Roman of Chaldea twitched several times when he heard the evaluation about himself—his sexual orientation is obviously female!The avatar and the person in the middle are completely different existences!

Don't confuse the avatar (character) with the man in the middle (voice actor)!

And listening to Xia Chuanhu's description, after a moment of silence, Heidan lightened up slightly.

【I see】

【Follow you】

45. Everyone goes home

Regarding the whereabouts of the black egg, it was finally decided to temporarily put it in Avalon, and then transfer it to Chaldea after the burning of human rights.

Now the process of human restoration is almost at the end, and Chaldea doesn't have much time to deal with other things, so the brainwashing of black eggs... No, it should be said that it is whitewashing work, and it is only Can wait until it's all over.

[Since the Holy Grail has been determined to be recovered, we have to start preparations for the transfer of spirit particles, and it will be completed in about 10 minutes. Before that, you should make preparations to leave the singularity]

After saying this, Roman's communication stopped.

10 minutes?

Fujimaru Tateka recalled the past two days: "I always feel... this singularity should be the most relaxing time, it seems that Mash, Akuta-senpai, and I just finished without doing anything. "

In this singularity, what the three of them did was to help repel the dragon disaster and protect ordinary people when the dragon disaster broke out and Vortigern recovered, and they never even experienced a fierce battle.

Although it doesn't mean that I like fighting, it really feels unreal to solve the singularity in such a simple way.

"So there is no need for you to come at all." Xia Chuanhu smiled, "Because Artoria came here first, so there is basically no need to deliberately collect information, and I also have enough strength. Nor will you seek help from friendly forces just because you cannot defeat the enemy."

"Well, the main premise of being so relaxed is that Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table bought us time at the expense of their lives in the first place."

Xia Chuanhu looked at Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table over there.

"When this singularity ends, you will all return to the Seat of Heroes, right?"

Gawain, Lancelot and Tristan nodded.

"After all, we are followers. Since the mission at this singularity is over, there is naturally no reason to continue."

"Being able to fight with my king again as a servant, for us who have already died, this second life has no regrets."

"It can't be said that there is no such thing. What I didn't do before I was alive, I haven't done now... But in fact, it doesn't matter."

Although they had different ideas, the three knights of the round table all spoke their minds with a smile.

Seeing that his subordinates were so relieved, Arthur also smiled, and then said: "I will not return to the Seat of Heroes. I am already out of the seat. After leaving here, I will return to Avalon. Falling asleep again, and this time I think forever, never waking up again."

Arthur's mission as the holy sword envoy had ended ten years ago. He had been fighting all his life and after his death. Ten years ago, he finally let go of all his burdens and ushered in his real life. ending.This time, it was only a one-time awakening for the sake of saving the world, and it was an exception among exceptions.

From now on, Arthur Pendragon will truly fall into an eternal sleep.

and so--

"This is the last time we meet, Xia Chuan... Well, although there are many things I want to say to you, I don't think it's okay to say them. You may have problems in the past, but now You must be fine."

Twenty years ago, Xia Chuanhu was a weak person who needed his protection, immature, irrational, and weak.

Ten years ago, Xia Chuanhu was strong enough to fight him and defeat him. Maturity and immaturity existed in him half and half, as did rationality and sensibility.

Now, he has grown to the point where even Arthur can't catch up.

"Well, since it's the last, I'll ask—what do you think about your life that has been changed by me in the past 20 years, [Master]."

Arthur's question made Xia Chuanhu think for a moment, and then smiled with a very proud tone and expression: "It's a very interesting 20 years, at least I like this kind of life very much. For you who changed my life, I only have grateful."

"This is the last meeting, let me tell you this before parting."

"Thank you, it was great to meet you in the Holy Grail War 20 years ago."

"From now on, the real goodbye, [Saber]."

This is the relationship between the two that has continued since 20 years ago and has continued to this day, and now it will truly end with Arthur's permanent departure.

On the time scale of the two, until the end of time, they will not meet again.

But even so, there will always be each other's existence in each other's memory.

Raising their fists at the same time, Xia Chuanhu and Arthur touched each other under the gaze of the others.

And after that—
