Looking Forward to Another World

"————"

The atmosphere at the scene became more and more tense under Arturia's declaration, which seemed to be looking for trouble.

The eyes of the goblins who surrounded everyone were getting more and more evil, and some even had anger and murderous intent completely on their faces, and they almost rushed over to fight to the death with Li Ge and others.

There is no way, for the goblins of the King's Clan, their queen is not Morgan, but Mab and Noknare.

If it weren't for Mab and Noknale, they would have died in the wilderness long ago, and there would be no way they would be taken in.

Although they didn't know if it was sincere, they all had to behave when someone spoke directly to Noknare in such a tone in front of them.

So...

"Catch them!"

With an angry shout, the goblins began to shrink the encirclement one by one.

"boom……"

The giants also held stone spears and moved towards Li Ge and others with heavy steps.

Faced with this situation, Mash, Leonardo da Vinci, Fujimaru Ritsuka and others seemed to want to explain something. Artoria and Habetroth were a little ready to make a move. Only Rieger was not paying attention at all. body, but in one direction.

He has already felt that there is a familiar magic power approaching here.

That is the magic that permeates the whole of Edinburgh and can be felt in any goblin or giant.

"stop!"

Not long after, a shout rang out, causing all the goblins and giants who were preparing to attack Li Ge and others to stop.

"That is……"

Everyone, including Li Ge, saw the figure slowly walking this way.

She was a girl who exuded an extraordinary strong aura and looked only slightly older than Arturia.

The girl, like Arturia, has no obvious physical characteristics of a British fairy, and her overall appearance is almost the same as that of a human.

She has a slender body and is dressed more like a grand duchess than a queen. Her pink hair is tied into a single braid and hangs down in front of her body. Her eyes are full of confidence and pride, making her Ordinary people can't even look at him.

At first glance, it seems to be just a confident and beautiful human girl, but whether it is her aura, the overall atmosphere, or even the heart-shaped background floating behind her, it tells others that she is not an ordinary person. human girl.

"Noknale!"

Arturia called out the other person's name and revealed the other person's identity.

She is the current queen of the Fairy of the North, and the original only king's clan in Britain - Noknare.

"As expected, it's you, Artoria."

The other party seemed to look at Artoria immediately, looking at the academic-style magic uniform she was wearing, and narrowed her beautiful eyes.

"I knew it was you as soon as I heard the voice. I never thought that that country girl who didn't even have any decent clothes now not only dressed decently, but also dared to shout like that in my Edinburgh. Where's my name?"

Hearing this, Artoria couldn't help but fall into memories.

The reason why she and Noknare met was because of a chance encounter.

That was five years ago.

At that time, a beauty pageant was held in Gloucester, the fashion capital, which attracted considerable attention throughout Britain, so much so that rumors spread as far away as Edinburgh in northern Britain and Tintagel, a remote countryside.

At that time, Knocknare had not yet become the leader of the King's Clan. In order to take over the position of Queen Mab, she came to Gloucester on the advice of the elders and prepared to participate in this beauty pageant as a form of political propaganda. way to give Britain its own voice.

Coincidentally, Tintagel also believed that this was a good opportunity to promote the Son of the Prophecy and increase his worth, so he forced Arturia to come to Gloucester and let her participate in the beauty pageant.

Nokenale met Artoria under such circumstances, and saw through her potential the first time she saw Artoria, and firmly believed that it would be Artoria who would fight her in the end.

However, because Artoria was so poor, and the fairies in Tintagel were not willing to spend money to prepare a decent outfit for her, so not long after the game started, Arturi Ya was brushed off.

In response to this, Nokenale, who had never been short of money since she was a child and had never worn poor clothes, said that she did not understand, but she was so shocked and indignant that she actually ran to find Artoria and pestered her.

This led to the two becoming a pair of noisy good friends, but they soon went their separate ways and returned to their hometowns. According to the original arrangement, one became the leader of the King's clan, and the other continued to be He was kept in stables and dungeons and wasted his time.

Now, five years have passed, and the two meet again, but under such circumstances...

Although they had only met each other once, looking at the atmosphere between the two at this moment, it was clear that their brief time together had left a deep impression on both of them.

For Arturia, Nokenare is a person who does not understand the sufferings of the world and loves to talk to herself. She looks forward to Nokenare's life and personality, but also envies and hates her, so I have always had the thought of "I don't want to show weakness in front of her, and I want to compare her to her if I can" towards Noknare.

For Noknare, Artoria is a very lively and cheerful character at first glance, but in fact, she hides sorrow and confusion that others cannot notice. She has low self-esteem, is negative, and is also very troublesome. I have always had the thought of "I can't stand it and want to encourage her, but I don't want to lose to her" towards Artoria.

These thoughts are complex and confusing, but one thing is undeniable.

That is, in the lives of two people, the other person is undoubtedly the first person who can be recognized by them and regarded as an equal friend.

Therefore, even out of envy, Artoria wanted to go directly to the royal city and vent her jealousy to Nokenale, but when Rige said that Nokenale was her friend, she did not deny.

only……

"...Can you stop talking about the past? That's all in the past!"

Artoria really didn't want her dark history to be mentioned again.

Nokenale looked at Artoria, put her hands on her hips, and spoke noncommittally.

"Indeed, you are not the same person as before. What you have done recently has made you famous, and it has spread to Edinburgh."

"Ringing the five pilgrim bells, I have almost completed the tour, and I have joined the Round Table and become the spiritual leader of the Round Table. Even if the Goblin Knight personally leads the attack, there is nothing you can do for a while."

"The son of the prophecy, the true king predicted by the Mirror Clan, the Fairy of Paradise who will defeat Queen Morgan in the future and ascend the Amyrlin..."

Nokenale read out what Artoria had done like a treasure trove, but her eyes became sharper and sharper.

"So...what do you want to do here now? Do you want to deal with the King's clan before going to war with Morgan?"

Nokenale's words caused the atmosphere that had been somewhat relaxed to take a turn for the worse, becoming quite dangerous.

The surrounding goblins began to look dangerously at Li Ge and others.

This is not an alarmist statement from Noknare.

You know, apart from the common enemy Morgan, in terms of positions, Arturia and Nocnare are not existences that can get along well with each other.

As the child of prophecy, the Fairy of Paradise, in the minds of the British fairies, Artoria is the figure who will defeat the Queen in the future and ascend the throne herself as king.

Nokenalei has already explained with practical actions that the King's clan also wants to resist the Queen, and wants to drive Morgan off the Amyrlin's Throne and sit on it herself.

Both of them have the Amyrlin Seat as their ultimate goal, one is the prophesied true king, and the other wants to usurp the throne.

If they all aim at the throne, then naturally they cannot be called friendly relations, they will only be enemies.

The current situation is that the person who competes with him for the throne brings his own people and breaks into his territory extremely forcefully...

Can this be tolerated?

Anyway, the goblins around thought that this must be intolerable.

Only Arturia, as if she hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter yet, said it with a straight face.

"Didn't I say it? I'm here to negotiate!"

Hearing this, Nokenale looked a little incredulous.

"You? Negotiate?"

Looking at it, it seems that there is no way to connect the two things.

This made Artoria furious.

"What do you mean? Look down on me? Look down on me, right? I know you have always looked down on me!"

"Don't describe others as having such a bad personality! How can there be such a thing? I just can't imagine you negotiating with others!"

"Then you still look down on me?! Why can't I negotiate? Aren't you the one who can't listen to others?"

"Who, who can't listen to what others say? I am Noknare from Edinburgh, who has always been famous for being considerate and able to listen to the advice of my subordinates!"

"Hmph! Look, are you talking to yourself again? In the history of pan-humanity, you will be called narcissistic!"

"You, you say I'm narcissistic? What about you? What about you? Aren't you masochistic...?!"

"I don't!"

"You have!"

Suddenly, the two girls started arguing from afar, leaving everyone behind them and those around them stunned.

"...They seem to have a good relationship?"

Habetlot asked Mash next to him with some uncertainty.

"Probably...yes?"

Matthew smiled coquettishly.

"So these two people have this kind of relationship?"

Da Vinci seemed to be watching it with great interest.

"Well, the relationship is really good."

Fujimaru Ritsuka also nodded subconsciously.

As a result, these words seemed to be heard by the two people who were quarreling.

""Who has a good relationship with her? ! ""

Arturia and Nokenale turned to Fujimaru Ritsuka at the same time, pointed at each other, and retorted in unison.

"…………"

Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly didn't dare to speak.

At this time, it was Li Ge who said something coldly from the side.

"How about you just get married and share the throne together?"

Anyway, goblins don’t have human ethics, so it should be feasible for women to marry women together, right?

However, the people who were outraged by these words were not only Artoria, but also Noknare who seemed to have lost her defense.

"I said, who are you?" Nokenalei was about to retort subconsciously, but when she saw Li Ge, she was slightly startled at first, then frowned and questioned, saying: "Human ? How dare a mere human being talk to me like that?”

It was obviously a arrogant and contemptuous statement, but Nokenale's tone did not contain any prejudice or even contempt, but only pure doubts.

From that appearance, it doesn't look like he hates humans at all, as mentioned in the rumors.

Li Ge didn't mean to introduce himself here.

"This is not a good place to talk, is it?" Li Ge looked around and said calmly: "How about changing to a place where we can talk first?"

Noknare's frown deepened, and the eyes she looked at Li Ge became more and more profound.

Seeing this, Artoria stood up almost reflexively, blocking Li Ge's face and glaring at Nokenale, like a child who was worried about having her toy taken away.

But her performance made Nokenalei's eyes light up, as if she had discovered some interesting toy, and a smile appeared on her face as if she was staring at prey.

"Okay." Nokenale said in a pleasant tone for some reason: "Although I hate humans and the Round Table, since I am an envoy coming on behalf of a force, it would be disrespectful to my king's clan to reject him directly. etiquette.”

"Let's go to the Great Cathedral."

With that said, Noknale turned around, led a group of guards, and left without any regrets.

"A-are you leaving now?"

Arturia was a little stunned, and the others were also a little surprised. It seemed that they didn't expect that Nokenale, who was so aggressive just now, would suddenly become so talkative.

It was still only Li Ge who seemed to be unaware of anything and followed directly, causing Arturia and others to follow in a hurry.

The surrounding goblins looked at each other, and finally dispersed with their own thoughts. Some continued to patrol and stand guard, while others supported Li Ge and his party, or followed them away as if escorting them.

Soon there were only some goblins and the eight-legged horse carriage guarded by the goblins, and only the sound of hoofbeats and snoring from time to time by the eight-legged horses were left.

…………

Edinburgh, Great Cathedral.

In the Edinburgh of pan-human history, there is also a St. Giles Cathedral.

Perhaps it is the convergence between human history and the Lost Belt. There is also such a cathedral in Edinburgh, the fairy country of Britain.

Although the location was different, under the leadership of Noknare, everyone came to this cathedral together.

This is where everyone will negotiate next.
