About the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, even young people living in the far eastern world have heard about it before they actually met them.
Until now, no strong evidence of the existence of the "King Arthur" character has been found in history. Before actually meeting them—yes, the young people will say that again—they all listened to the most likely guesses It is believed that King Arthur is just a false character made up by people to pin their hopes on. Of course, the Knights of the Round Table who surrounded King Arthur and jointly created this legendary story did not exist.
However, the living evidence is right in front of you.
Everything that was called false has been shattered and reassembled into a different truth than before.
I have to say, this "truth", in a sense, is more important than the previous one...
...It's unacceptable.
"The prototype I want to find is the prince, the most classic perfect prince in shoujo manga! For some reason, I missed a word, from 'prince' to 'king'."
Nozaki Umetaro said with a blank face, and it was impossible to tell whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied from his voice.
Next to him, Sakura Chiyo, who was in a trance all the time, finally calmed down after so long. Although, she still held her head rather dullly, with question marks all over her eyes: "It's the 'King', actually... it's not a problem. , but, King Arthur... why is it a girl who is only a little taller than me, but is so cute and cute?"
She didn't know the true identity of this group of people until she was picked up on the plane by this group of uncles who looked like forces in the dark world.
It turns out that in Mr. Caster's failed apology letter, the "Al" who was taken away by a bad teacher at a young age, forced to wallow in mud and fight in the wind at a young age, and even secretly hid the love letter he finally received Miss Toria", that is the famous King Arthur! ! !
The ferocious strong men who frightened her so much that she stepped on her left foot and fell into a coma that day were the famous Knights of the Round Table! ! !
unbelievable.
Sakura Chiyo refused in her heart.
When the white-haired elder brother who claimed to be Merlin proposed a "short-term trip" to them, she didn't realize it, and was directly intimidated by the phrase "once in a lifetime", and was fooled into agreeing inexplicably.
Nozaki-kun... Nozaki-kun was not fooled.
He agreed without any hesitation, even now that he got off the plane and was taken aboard—
Don't look at how calm he was when he spoke just now, in fact, Umetaro Nozaki's tone was calm, but his hand holding the pen was shaking back and forth, almost forming a phantom. Just can't stop!
"Sex change—isn't that what I often do?" My manga male and female protagonists plus supporting roles are cartoonists who have turned the prototypes in reality, and finally couldn't help shouting: "It's actually a girl's Wang, one day his knights accidentally discovered his true identity as a woman, there is no doubt that it is a galgame show——hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!”
"Stop, stop, stop, be careful not to be heard by them throwing you overboard to feed the sharks, Nozaki-kun!"
Of course, the warrior who desperately covered the mouth of the idiot Nozaki-kun was Sakura Chiyo, and now, only the two of them depended on each other...
perhaps?
Moreover, nervously dragging Nozaki-kun to squat in the farthest corner away from the crowd, Sakura Chiyo whispered in Nozaki Umetaro's ear with a heart that kept beating fast but not knowing why it was particularly excited:
"Then what, Nozaki-kun, I always feel..."
"Those gentlemen knights are not at all like the attackable character ABCDE in the galgame. It feels weird. Especially...uh, Mr. Gawain and Big Brother Merlin, it's almost like—"
"It's like" is a bit difficult to describe, because Sakura Chiyo is a very pure girl, and Galgame learned about it when watching Nozaki-kun's material.
Therefore, if she can be more knowledgeable and cover more comprehensive aspects, she will be able to make the most accurate description.
simply--
gay gay ah these people!
She remembered that she had to correct her previous statement first.They are not alone on this ship, and Mr. Caster is also there. Thinking about it, if they are going to be thrown into the sea to feed the sharks, Mr. Caster will definitely come out to save them as soon as possible!
Sakura Chiyo suddenly gained a bit of confidence, and the hand covering Nozaki-kun's mouth could not help but loosen.
At first she thought that Mr. Caster was also a member of the Knights of the Round Table, but this guess was immediately denied by Mr. Caster.He told her her real name, Ellie, and sure enough, in the legend of the Knights of the Round Table, there is no one named Ellie.
Ah, ah, what did you just say?
She held back very hard for a long time, and finally chose a rhetoric that could only be described as a compromise.
"It's just a feeling, Mr. Gao Wen and big brother Merlin...the two of them are the most obvious, the way they look at Mr. Caster is too strange."
Umetaro Nozaki, who was finally able to speak: "What? What look?"
Sakura Chiyo: "That's—that's, it's very strange——"
"Huh? Who has strange eyes?"
The voice that suddenly came in from behind, obviously very nice, but it sounded out of season, startled the boys and girls who were whispering here.
"Wow!"
"Uh!"
Ellie was also startled by his master's screams, and after realizing that it was his "appearing and disappearing" that scared the little girl who was talking to jump up, he quickly apologized in a correct manner.
"I'm sorry master, I will pay attention to remind you next time I come..." The topic turned back, he seemed to have heard the master mentioned his name, and also mentioned Gao Wenqing and Teacher Mei Lin, so he asked again curiously He said: "Master thinks, are they weird?"
Sakura Chiyo quickly waved her hand: "No, no, no, it's not that they are weird, it's... their eyes."
"Eyes?"
The little girl's eyes wandered away a few times, and she said in a softer voice than before: "It's usually when you look at Mr. Caster's back, but I can't say for sure. It's just very strange, as if I want to catch you Same... Mister Caster, didn't you notice?"
"...No, if you are watching my back."
Hearing Sakura Chiyo's words at first, Ellie was quite surprised, but then, his expression changed slightly.
"I learned from Edmund to look directly into other people's eyes, and look for their thoughts and moods from their eyes. As far as I'm concerned, I'm still not at home. Gao Wenqing, and Teacher Meilin..."
He had answered a similar question from Merlin not long ago.
Can't tell, can't guess what this mysterious man is thinking.
As for Gao Wenqing... when they were face to face, Sun Knight was impeccable in both his eyes and expression, as gentle and cheerful as ever.
He still couldn't see it.
Nozaki Umetaro, who could no longer understand what they were talking about, stopped mentioning it. Anyway, Sakura Chiyo choked, and suddenly started to panic, whether he said something he shouldn't have said.
"Uh... Don't worry about Mr. Caster, I must have read it wrong. After all, I have never been in a relationship, and I have never... Eh? In love?!"
Sakura Chiyo fell into unprecedented chaos. She never thought that these words of hers, coming to Ellie's ears just at this period, would arouse such irresistible ripples in his heart.
Although, Ellie returned to his calm expression the next moment, pretended not to know anything, changed the subject, and talked about his own reason for coming.
"If I remember correctly, isn't your purpose in coming here to witness the true knightly demeanor?"
"It just so happened that before the ship docked, Gao Wenqing was going to compete with Sir Lancelot, so I came to call you."
"Competition...Huh?!!!"
The images of the two knights mentioned immediately jumped into Sakura Chiyo's mind: the man with the kitchen knife and the man with the hammer, are they going to fight fiercely? !
She wished that the soles of her shoes could be firmly nailed to the floor, and she really didn't want to watch such a terrible scene, but unexpectedly——
Nozaki-kun's eyes lit up suddenly!
"Understood! I'm ready, move on now!"
After finishing speaking, the cartoonist with the camera on his back and a notebook and pen in his hand was agile, and rushed forward like a bolt of lightning in an instant. Of course, he didn't forget that he had an assistant.
So, accompanied by screams of wow, no need, the boy and the girl went straight to the front of the deck.
And when they arrived at the fastest speed, the "competition" mentioned by Ellie had already begun.
At this time, the sky is no longer sunny as it was when we first sailed, but the blue sky has been quietly covered by dark clouds.
The wind was roaring, sweeping up huge waves that could cover the sky, like several blue and black barriers, just before the bow of the ship that was about to cross the English Channel.
The turbulent water waves washed over the deck, the hull was shaking, and soon, it would violently ups and downs.
Before that, the knights clustered in front of the deck, leaving plenty of space for the two standing in the center.
"Are you sure, Gao Wenqing? The sun is covered, and Qing, who has no blessings in the daytime, wants to take revenge on me? Haha, don't get me wrong, I mean the 'revenge' of making Qing wear clothes that don't fit your body."
"Let's just treat it like this, Sir Lancelot. Even if you put on the same clothes, I will not forget that you came up with that bad idea."
"In that case, of course I have no room to refuse. Be careful, Gao Wenqing, don't lose face in front of some people."
Under the watchful eyes of the king and his colleagues, the two knights who had restored their original attire put on their armor and raised their swords again.
This can be regarded as an impromptu show jointly presented by Gao Wenqing and Lancelot.
There is no purpose, let alone revenge. They don't know how to use treasures. Gao Wenqing even gave up the blessing of the day and relied solely on swordsmanship to compete.
Ah, I almost forgot, there is a stake in this competition, but it needs to be kept secret for the time being.
"Sir Lancelot, don't be too confident. I drew the sword with the heart to wash away my shame."
As he said that, the Sun Knight under the dark sky tilted his eyes slightly, and stopped at the blue Heroic Spirit who was walking towards this side a few steps slower.
He laughed, as if smiling at the man.
"Even when clouds hide the sun, the light that makes me strong is still there, never to be extinguished."
"Come, Lord Lancelot, before the King and Lords, Master, and Lord Airlie—turn the sword of victory!"
"Wait, didn't you agree not to use the treasure... Well, Gao Wenqing, you are actually cheating! Drink!"
Omit the little joke at the beginning.
Sure enough, the storm came.
The hull of the ship shook violently, and the creaking sound of suspected planks breaking could be clearly heard in the ears.But amidst the slanting rain curtain, the sword light was still flickering, and the clanging sound hadn't stopped.
It’s just that the ordinary humans Nozaki Umetaro and Sakura Chiyo couldn’t stand firm on the dangling deck. It was up to Ellie to hold one of them with one hand, and they hugged the railing on the edge of the deck tightly, so they could barely stabilize their figures. .
But even so, the wind and rain and the flood-like waves have left the boys and girls too busy to take care of themselves. They can barely open their eyes and communicate by shouting.
"It can all be fought—too—terrible—too!"
"Really—won't you stop it? It's about to fall—no, the boat is going to capsize!?"
In these terrified shouts, the corners of Airlie's pursed lips unconsciously curled up, trying to smile.
"Don't worry, the boat won't capsize, and they won't have any accidents—they are heroic spirits after all." Ellie said.
"Before this trip, what was your impression of them? You may think that they don't look like knights, do you think that they are more like a few ordinary humans than imagined knights?"
The young people barely opened their mouths in the wind and rain, and their voices could not be uttered, but the meaning they wanted to express had already been conveyed.
——Yeah, that’s what I thought.Among this group of people, except Miss Artoria... no, even Miss Artoria is not like a king.
——It’s so lively, and its personality is completely different from what I imagined.
Today, the knights of the round table have become synonymous with the perfect image of bravery, humility, integrity, loyalty and so on.
Who would have thought that they themselves would behave so casually in life... even wearing maid outfits!
"Of course I don't have the confidence to explain to you what a real knight looks like, because although I wear armor, I can't be considered a knight." Ellie looked away, his voice was clearly not high, but he could clearly convey into the ears of the two young men.
"But I have heard so much and seen so much, I can point it out to you."
Pointing to the front not far away, those people with different personalities but gathered together.
If you ask Airlie to say, whether it is a "king" or a "knight", cast their noble and noble inner things, that is, even if there is confusion, they can quickly be firm and have no shifting beliefs.
That faith is a sword they don't drop.
That belief is their constant gaze.
That belief is a loyal soul that tends to move them forward and will not lose their way.
"This is just the tip of the iceberg...but it is enough to touch you."
Ellie said softly.
The sea water wets his long hair, which can't help floating, so that it clings to his cheeks still stained with water.The eyes were obviously stained with water vapor, however, there was still an incomparably bright color that penetrated that layer of mist.
For him who has been watching from the sidelines in the past, that belief is the "light" that he has been chasing and attracting him deeply.
Although, he only found out now.
If you want it, you can have it yourself.
Wang stood at the forefront.
On the left and right sides stood the knights watching the battle.
The ship is riding the wind and waves, breaking through the towering sea wall with unstoppable momentum, and crushing the white foam.
*****
During this week, the group completed the journey that would take more than half a month even with modern means of transportation in just a few days.
They came to England from Japan, and almost traveled all over Britain.
For the two children who went abroad for the first time, this one-week journey is really a precious opportunity that can only be obtained once in a lifetime.Not just traveling, but experiencing "history" in the distant past.
"This modern Britain is no longer the Britain we guarded."
This is what King Arthur, who returned to his homeland, told her knights and friends from afar.
"However, to be able to come to the familiar land again, with all the ministers accompanying me, it's like I have found my home again."
……
The last stop on the tour was Glastonbury Abbey.
It is said that King Arthur slept here.
Surrounded by the ruins of the monastery, through the green grass slope and the evergreen grass in front, you can see the cemetery.
"Well... where did they all go?"
For some reason, Ellie, who was alone in the spot in a blink of an eye, couldn't help but wondered to himself.
It's like making an appointment in advance.
He seemed to have heard the voice of Teacher Merlin who had mysteriously disappeared for a long time, and he was turning his head to look back, but he saw nothing.When he turned his head again, the people who were walking in front of him, including Nozaki Umetaro and Sakura Chiyo, were all gone.
In front of you is a small path paved with stones climbing on a gentle slope. On the top of the green grass slope stands a towering stone pagoda that looks majestic from a distance but has already decayed.
Ellie hesitated for a moment, but decided to follow the original route and move on.
Maybe they have passed ahead of time, if they go forward, they should be able to...
I was thinking so.
Ellie's footsteps suddenly stopped, and a look of surprise appeared on his upturned face.
It can already be clearly seen that the dark and indifferent figure standing under the stone tower turned out to be——
"Agret?"
Sure enough, I was not mistaken, the knight whose shadow never disappeared was none other than the king's assistant, Agguwen.
After this reunion, the assistant officer did not speak directly to Ellie. However, at this moment, standing here, he seemed to be waiting for Ellie to appear.
Airlie approached quickly.
Seeing Agguiwen, he was about to ask where the others were going.However, the probing and scrutiny in the eyes of the knight looking sideways made him feel puzzled, and subconsciously cut off his voice.
As expected, Agguiwen spoke with these unfamiliar scrutiny.
"Go down, someone is waiting for you under that tree."
Concise and concise.
Airlie was a little puzzled, but said, "Thank you. But, you're not with me..."
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly stopped.
"As for whether you are eligible to join the Knights of the Round Table," Aggavin said coldly, "I have always been against it, because your influence on the king and certain Knights of the Round Table is incalculable."
Airlie was slightly stunned, but then, Aggavin continued in the same tone:
"However, if it is the king's insistence, I will not object."
He glanced at Ellie, wondering what was going on in his mind.
Finally, with the same expression, he slightly nodded to Ellie.
——This is a hard-won recognition.
Ellie, who hadn't figured out what they were doing, had to keep going.
The people I met next were those who had disappeared before.
Bedivere was waiting at the end of the road on the other side of the hill. He waved to the bewildered Ellie, and without further explanation, he just took one of Airlie's hands, and gently pressed his lips against his palm. touched it.
"Keep going, Ellie."
——This is a compliment to sincerity.
next, next...
The red-haired knight stood under the tree, and placed the same unambiguous kiss on the heroic spirit's hair as the previous one.
Lancelot, who was waiting behind, lowered his head and touched the back of Ellie's hand.
"If I don't occupy this place, Gao Wenqing will definitely run away again—ah, don't worry, I didn't say anything, please move on, the king is waiting in front of you."
Already the ruined outer wall of the monastery could be seen.
At the same time, Ellie saw the girl knight standing quietly outside the wall.
"Artoria...I want to apologize to you."
At this moment, his heart couldn't help but move, he finally broke the barrier he had set up for himself, decided to completely abandon the failed letter of apology, and said those words himself.
However, Arturia laughed and stared at him with an incomparably gentle gaze and expression.
"Exactly, I want to apologize to you too... Maybe we're talking about the same thing?"
"Well, it should be. So—"
"I'm sorry, Arturia."
"I'm sorry, Ellie."
"What I want to ask is...Although it is unlikely and it seems insincere, but... can it be restored? Like before, at the beginning..."
"What are you talking about, Ellie." Artoria said seriously: "You are not my knight, and I am no longer the close relationship with you, this is before. But... I thought, It has recovered."
"From the moment we apologized to each other."
The king motioned for the knight who was not hers to bend down, and she kissed his forehead with a smile.
——This is the family relationship we lost and regained.
Going forward... and going forward.
In front of the cemetery in the middle of the lawn, there is only one person standing here.
"I'm so ashamed that I actually made the king give up her order to me."
"However, during the time I stood here and waited quietly, I finally made up my mind."
Sun Knight turned to look at Airlie who was walking towards him.There was an incomparably dazzling light in his eyes, as if he had finally vented his emotions.
"Mr. Airlie—no, Airlie."
I did the same thing as my colleagues——kiss.This was a gift for Ellie that they had agreed in advance, and it was also another welcome ceremony that was not considered formal due to restrictions.
However, Gao Wen chose to kiss the eyes of his sweetheart.
"My loyalty is dedicated to the king, and my life and the love that always burns my heart and lights my eyes..."
"Please allow me to be here, dedicated to you."
……
About the magician who seems to have disappeared again.
Merlin said, don't look for him, anyway, Chaldea will see you again, he is very busy.
Oh, the Knights of the Round Table have something to say about Airlie, why didn't he?
How is it possible - no.
The "gift" from Merlin had already been delivered while Airlie was asleep.
— kissed his earlobe, kissed his soft neck.
Until now, no strong evidence of the existence of the "King Arthur" character has been found in history. Before actually meeting them—yes, the young people will say that again—they all listened to the most likely guesses It is believed that King Arthur is just a false character made up by people to pin their hopes on.

"Really—won't you stop it? It's about to fall—no, the boat is going to capsize!?"
In these terrified shouts, the corners of Airlie's pursed lips unconsciously curled up, trying to smile.
"Don't worry, the boat won't capsize, and they won't have any accidents—they are heroic spirits after all." Ellie said.
"Before this trip, what was your impression of them? You may think that they don't look like knights, do you think that they are more like a few ordinary humans than imagined knights?"
The young people barely opened their mouths in the wind and rain, and their voices could not be uttered, but the meaning they wanted to express had already been conveyed.
——Yeah, that’s what I thought.Among this group of people, except Miss Artoria... no, even Miss Artoria is not like a king.
——It’s so lively, and its personality is completely different from what I imagined.
Today, the knights of the round table have become synonymous with the perfect image of bravery, humility, integrity, loyalty and so on.
Who would have thought that they themselves would behave so casually in life... even wearing maid outfits!
"Of course I don't have the confidence to explain to you what a real knight looks like, because although I wear armor, I can't be considered a knight." Ellie looked away, his voice was clearly not high, but he could clearly convey into the ears of the two young men.
"But I have heard so much and seen so much, I can point it out to you."
Pointing to the front not far away, those people with different personalities but gathered together.
If you ask Airlie to say, whether it is a "king" or a "knight", cast their noble and noble inner things, that is, even if there is confusion, they can quickly be firm and have no shifting beliefs.
That faith is a sword they don't drop.
That belief is their constant gaze.
That belief is a loyal soul that tends to move them forward and will not lose their way.
"This is just the tip of the iceberg...but it is enough to touch you."
Ellie said softly.
The sea water wets his long hair, which can't help floating, so that it clings to his cheeks still stained with water.The eyes were obviously stained with water vapor, however, there was still an incomparably bright color that penetrated that layer of mist.
For him who has been watching from the sidelines in the past, that belief is the "light" that he has been chasing and attracting him deeply.
Although, he only found out now.
If you want it, you can have it yourself.
Wang stood at the forefront.
On the left and right sides stood the knights watching the battle.
The ship is riding the wind and waves, breaking through the towering sea wall with unstoppable momentum, and crushing the white foam.
*****
During this week, the group completed the journey that would take more than half a month even with modern means of transportation in just a few days.
They came to England from Japan, and almost traveled all over Britain.
For the two children who went abroad for the first time, this one-week journey is really a precious opportunity that can only be obtained once in a lifetime.Not just traveling, but experiencing "history" in the distant past.
"This modern Britain is no longer the Britain we guarded."
This is what King Arthur, who returned to his homeland, told her knights and friends from afar.
"However, to be able to come to the familiar land again, with all the ministers accompanying me, it's like I have found my home again."
……
The last stop on the tour was Glastonbury Abbey.
It is said that King Arthur slept here.
Surrounded by the ruins of the monastery, through the green grass slope and the evergreen grass in front, you can see the cemetery.
"Well... where did they all go?"
For some reason, Ellie, who was alone in the spot in a blink of an eye, couldn't help but wondered to himself.
It's like making an appointment in advance.
He seemed to have heard the voice of Teacher Merlin who had mysteriously disappeared for a long time, and he was turning his head to look back, but he saw nothing.When he turned his head again, the people who were walking in front of him, including Nozaki Umetaro and Sakura Chiyo, were all gone.
In front of you is a small path paved with stones climbing on a gentle slope. On the top of the green grass slope stands a towering stone pagoda that looks majestic from a distance but has already decayed.
Ellie hesitated for a moment, but decided to follow the original route and move on.
Maybe they have passed ahead of time, if they go forward, they should be able to...
I was thinking so.
Ellie's footsteps suddenly stopped, and a look of surprise appeared on his upturned face.
It can already be clearly seen that the dark and indifferent figure standing under the stone tower turned out to be——
"Agret?"
Sure enough, I was not mistaken, the knight whose shadow never disappeared was none other than the king's assistant, Agguwen.
After this reunion, the assistant officer did not speak directly to Ellie. However, at this moment, standing here, he seemed to be waiting for Ellie to appear.
Airlie approached quickly.
Seeing Agguiwen, he was about to ask where the others were going.However, the probing and scrutiny in the eyes of the knight looking sideways made him feel puzzled, and subconsciously cut off his voice.
As expected, Agguiwen spoke with these unfamiliar scrutiny.
"Go down, someone is waiting for you under that tree."
Concise and concise.
Airlie was a little puzzled, but said, "Thank you. But, you're not with me..."
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly stopped.
"As for whether you are eligible to join the Knights of the Round Table," Aggavin said coldly, "I have always been against it, because your influence on the king and certain Knights of the Round Table is incalculable."
Airlie was slightly stunned, but then, Aggavin continued in the same tone:
"However, if it is the king's insistence, I will not object."
He glanced at Ellie, wondering what was going on in his mind.
Finally, with the same expression, he slightly nodded to Ellie.
——This is a hard-won recognition.
Ellie, who hadn't figured out what they were doing, had to keep going.
The people I met next were those who had disappeared before.
Bedivere was waiting at the end of the road on the other side of the hill. He waved to the bewildered Ellie, and without further explanation, he just took one of Airlie's hands, and gently pressed his lips against his palm. touched it.
"Keep going, Ellie."
——This is a compliment to sincerity.
next, next...
The red-haired knight stood under the tree, and placed the same unambiguous kiss on the heroic spirit's hair as the previous one.
Lancelot, who was waiting behind, lowered his head and touched the back of Ellie's hand.
"If I don't occupy this place, Gao Wenqing will definitely run away again—ah, don't worry, I didn't say anything, please move on, the king is waiting in front of you."
Already the ruined outer wall of the monastery could be seen.
At the same time, Ellie saw the girl knight standing quietly outside the wall.
"Artoria...I want to apologize to you."
At this moment, his heart couldn't help but move, he finally broke the barrier he had set up for himself, decided to completely abandon the failed letter of apology, and said those words himself.
However, Arturia laughed and stared at him with an incomparably gentle gaze and expression.
"Exactly, I want to apologize to you too... Maybe we're talking about the same thing?"
"Well, it should be. So—"
"I'm sorry, Arturia."
"I'm sorry, Ellie."
"What I want to ask is...Although it is unlikely and it seems insincere, but... can it be restored? Like before, at the beginning..."
"What are you talking about, Ellie." Artoria said seriously: "You are not my knight, and I am no longer the close relationship with you, this is before. But... I thought, It has recovered."
"From the moment we apologized to each other."
The king motioned for the knight who was not hers to bend down, and she kissed his forehead with a smile.
——This is the family relationship we lost and regained.
Going forward... and going forward.
In front of the cemetery in the middle of the lawn, there is only one person standing here.
"I'm so ashamed that I actually made the king give up her order to me."
"However, during the time I stood here and waited quietly, I finally made up my mind."
Sun Knight turned to look at Airlie who was walking towards him.There was an incomparably dazzling light in his eyes, as if he had finally vented his emotions.
"Mr. Airlie—no, Airlie."
I did the same thing as my colleagues——kiss.This was a gift for Ellie that they had agreed in advance, and it was also another welcome ceremony that was not considered formal due to restrictions.
However, Gao Wen chose to kiss the eyes of his sweetheart.
"My loyalty is dedicated to the king, and my life and the love that always burns my heart and lights my eyes..."
"Please allow me to be here, dedicated to you."
……
About the magician who seems to have disappeared again.
Merlin said, don't look for him, anyway, Chaldea will see you again, he is very busy.
Oh, the Knights of the Round Table have something to say about Airlie, why didn't he?
How is it possible - no.
The "gift" from Merlin had already been delivered while Airlie was asleep.
— kissed his earlobe, kissed his soft neck.
