The world in the moon begins with becoming Morgan’s husband!

If we take the initial starting point as a measure——

Then he is just a lowly and despicable knight who always looks at the princess's body.

Taking the oath of allegiance and drinking the poisonous wine is just a temporary control of the body by desire.

But after experiencing many things, Ian knew that his feelings for Morgan were no longer just about happiness.

He had witnessed all the sufferings that fate had carved on her body and knew the unwillingness in her heart.

So--

Let yourself be her loyal knight forever in this world.

She was the princess of Britain, how could she be ignored and lose her pride?

Although there was no response, Artoria was still very happy.

The girl reached out and hugged her sweetheart.

"Mr. Ian."

"Although it may make you think I'm a little greedy, but -"

"Can you let me have you all to myself right now?"

"..."

Ian's heart was once again touched by her frankness.

But he still had no words, he just lowered his head and kissed Artoria.

The girl's lips were still so soft, as if they were the most perfect candy in Britain.

As long as you take a bite on it, you can feel the sweetness like sand.

The girl will cry because of this, but she is reluctant to let go, and eventually becomes a well-behaved prey.

[You despicably played with Artoria's emotions, making her shy in front of you like a king. 】

[You looked at her shy look and cursed yourself as a bastard. 】

[But at the same time, you also know that you must not waver from this. 】

【You have things you must accomplish. 】

[The surface of the lake is sparkling, and a mysterious light fills the sky above it. 】

[A mysterious voice came out. 】

"King, you are here."

The ethereal and clear voice echoed in the forest.

Only then did Artoria stop.

She turned back and looked into the lake.

Those eyes instantly lit up with the dignity that a king should have.

"The time has come."

"As agreed, I'm here to take out the weapon." She said.

"I would like to offer my sword to the king."

The sound in the lake is gentle and loud.

Amidst the slightly fluttering clear ripples, a burst of light shot out from the lake into the sky, as if it could knock down the stars.

When the light condensed and formed a solid body, a sword blade appeared on the lake.

It was a sword blade made of gold, and the hilt was inlaid with gorgeous but practical gems.

The sharp sword blade was gathered into the scabbard engraved with complex patterns.

"This is the sword we will present to the king."

"It's called the Sword of Victory (Excalibur)."

"As long as he holds this sword, the king will be invincible in front of his enemies and bring more victories back to Camelot."

"And its scabbard, Avalon, will also protect the king during this process and save him from trouble."

"A powerful blade indeed."

"Spirits of the Lake, I pay you my highest respects."

As Artoria said these words, she stretched out her hand towards the Sword of Victory (Excalibur) with the highest respect.

Got it——

At the moment of contact, the light from the blade slowly flowed towards the girl.

[Red Dragon's Gift+ activated: You feel that Artoria has been given some more powerful magic power. 】

[You realize that the spirit in the lake has very powerful power. 】

The sound from the lake sounded again.

"King, although we have no objection to you holding the Sword of Victory (Excalibur)."

"But it's still part of the lake, so hopefully you'll be able to return it to the lake when the dust settles."

"As it should be."

Artoria, who was holding the Sword in the Lake, responded.

This is an extremely simple contract exchange ceremony.

It seemed like everything was supposed to end there.

Until Arturia suddenly spoke again.

"Elf of the Lake, if my dream is flawless, it seems that there is another sword blade that has not been taken away from you?"

"King, you are right."

The voice in the lake quickly responded to Artoria's question.

"There is indeed a blade that was not taken away when it should have been taken away - that is the blade that is the same as the Sword of Victory (Excalibur)."

"It's called Excalibur Gallatin."

"In that case-"

Artoria's green eyes showed some determination.

"Can I take it with me?"

"..."

The sounds in the lake were silent for a moment.

"King, even you should not hold two swords in the lake."

"What if it's not me who takes it out, but someone else with enough ability?"

"That might be okay."

The voice in the lake responded with neither arrogance nor humility.

"But the outcome is not chosen by us, but by Excalibur Gallatin himself."

Artoria didn't speak anymore, but looked at Ian aside.

Her meaning couldn't be more obvious - she hopes that he can take out the Excalibur Gallatin.

Ian didn't hesitate.

He came to the lake just like Arturia.

The lake burst into light again.

It's just that the difference from the cold light that penetrated the sky before is that this time the red glow is even hotter.

Comparing the two, they seem to be like the sun and the moon.

[You know that the Sword of Cycling Victory (Excalibur Gallatin) in front of you may have the same ability as the Sword of Oath Victory (Excalibur). 】

[According to common sense, a weapon like this cannot be lifted so easily. 】

[But at the same time, you also discovered something. 】

[That is when you feel a certain affinity between yourself and the Sword of Revolving Victory (Excalibur Gallatin). 】

【You see yourself taking it out as if transcending the future. 】

that's the truth.

The moment he touched the Sword of Revolving Victory (Excalibur Gallatin), Ian found that not only was he not burned by the seemingly blazing light.

On the contrary, I felt like I was being favored.

He understood everything.

[Talent Rotation Sword of Victory++ has been obtained: Because of Morgan's influence on you, you and the blade in your hand are blessed by the sun, and you can use it easily. 】

This was supposed to be the blade taken by Morgan, the princess born in the lake.

But she was too sad to take the blade out of the lake in time on the day of her exile.

Ian, who had spent time with her and was recognized by the lake, was recognized by the Excalibur Gallatin.

This is by chance?

Or is it destiny?

Ian looked at the blazing sword in his hand and felt an aura of fate.

But Arturia on the side didn't know all this.

She only knew that he was taking out the other blade from the lake just as she expected.

"Mr. Ian, I knew you could do it!"

"There really is some kind of bond between us... right?"

The girl seemed to have mistaken all this as a testimony of the relationship between the two.

Ian hesitated for a long time, but in the end he still did not correct this wrong perception.

but--

It seems that some way is needed to solidify all this.

that--

As long as you don't enter there, that's fine, right?

76. The girl’s back garden welcomes her sweetheart ([-] words chapter)

The sunset gradually sets over the mountains.

The dim sunlight spread throughout the forest, dyeing everything it touched with a pale yellow gauze.

Somewhere on the ground in the forest.

The Sword of Sworn Victory (Excalibur) and the Sword of Rotating Victory (Excalibur Gallatin) are inserted into the ground side by side.

They cast long diagonal shadows on the ground, and at first glance they looked the same.

Arturia was sitting under the tree, hugging her slightly curled legs, resting her head on her knees, looking forward.

Her eyes were full of joy.

On the one hand, it's because he did get the Sword of Victory from the Lake Fairy.

on the other hand--

Artoria looked at the rotating sword of victory next to the sword of sworn victory.

I didn't expect that I could still have such a connection with Ian.

What an incredible blessing.

"I am back."
