Reincarnated As A Servant

I instinctively put the arm that didn't hold Clarent in front of me to defend myself from the sole that was coming towards me.

and as soon as the foot hit me, I felt much of my armor break and saw the landscape change extremely quickly, in addition to feeling the impacts of the trees on my bȧrėback.

after being dragged for several meters hitting my bȧrėback on the trees, I finally managed to stop after placing my hand on the ground, and with a quick look at the environment I realized how far I was sent, at least 800 meters, and finding myself in such a situation, I ended up remembering Sir Ector words a few years before the battle of Camlann.

("You are arrogant Arth, being invulnerable does not make you invincible, but makes you complacent, distracted and weak.

when you are at an advantage you tend to ignore your enemies for thinking that victory is guaranteed and this creates a weakness.

a knight must cover the weaknesses of the king and himself, making the weaknesses nonexistent.

if a knight has weaknesses, then the king also has weaknesses and a king's weakness can lead to the fall of an entire people or cause death itself.

as long as you have this weakness, you will never protect Arturia ").

I couldn't believe in myself, that weakness was something I had overcome, and here I was repeating the same mistake after death, perhaps because the shape I took was younger than when I died, but in the end, it didn't matter because I underestimated the berserker and I thought the victory was guaranteed.

I forgot what I was up against, the berserker was a heroic spirit, insane or not yet, a person whose actions were enough to call him a hero, and that kick was enough to demonstrate his power, even if I hadn't been hurt by because of my invulnerability, any other low-resistance servant who had suffered that blow would have died or been seriously injured.

taking my hand off the ground I got up and materialized my armor, I also took the opportunity to put Clarent in its sheath full of precious jewels and saw a berserker that at that moment looked like a giant dinosaur with many arms and heads very similar to animals, the berserker was running towards a castle that I suppose to be the enemy fortress and, witnessing Berserker in his impetuous attack, I entered a small dilemma.

should I finish the job of killing the berserker?

or should I step back and leave the berserker to be treated by enemies?

doing so would result in my master's order being discarded and perhaps the berserker low probability of being forced to make a pact with enemies via the launcher, although I doubt they will be able to get the berserker back to normal.

seeing that none of the solutions would work, I decided to think a little more because I was in no hurry but it didn't take me long to think of a more practical but extremely dangerous solution, I put my thumb and middle finger in my mouth and gave a strong blow, and with my whistle, I could see Powis coming from the starry night at sonic speed.

Powis gradually lost speed as he approached and when he approached me trotting through the air he slowed down completely and made a graceful landing in front of me I couldn't help but move forward and stroke my black Breton horse's mane, watching Powis up close I felt my motivation reduced to what I was going to do, but it would be necessary for victory.

"Powis, I need you to distract your enemies, do you think you can do that?

Powis gave a brief whinny that I interpreted as a yes, but would not allow him to fight with so little power and with enemies being servants he would not last long, so I put my hand on his head where the rune was and injected 10% of my prana total overloading the spell, the effects were immediate.

Powis's eyes got bloodshot and his size increased a little bit along with his musculature that practically doubled in size and the wings of the wind gained twice the power and efficiency generating much more speed and also gaining the passive ability to defend arrows due to the pressure of the wind emitted by the wing, with such power Powis was comparable to a Noble Phantasm rank B, with all that power and speed the chance of him dying was small, but it was still possible, and with a light slap in front of the thɨġhs Powis was prepared for the jump, he crouched down as much as he could and jumped with tremendous force leaving a crater where he was before and looking at the starry night I could see Powis disappearing at an unimaginable speed, now I would have to do my part, luckily for me, I still had 40% of the total prana enough for another weapon to be summoned.

{"Duwiau Hynafol"} ("Ancient gods")

{"Bendithiwch yr helfa fawr hon eto"} ("Bless this great hunt again")

{"Yr Helfa Wyllt"} ("The Wild Hunt")

with the end of the invocation, a small bracelet with a boar's head formed around my left wrist, just after it formed the bracelet began to stretch and solidify until it took the shape of an arc around my wrist.

this bow was one of my best ȧssets, its effect was not exactly powerful but it was extremely fatal for a heroic spirit despite having a limit of only 3 arrows.

I took a deep breath and concentrated the prana on my feet and pushed forward with a strong step with my right foot and then with my left and so I continued with small bursts of prana in a straight line and going towards the berserker, but how not I am known for being a good archer and for not being an archer class I had to move 200 meters away from the berserker to hit him.

and with just 9 small bursts of prana, I had reached a safe distance from the castle and the berserker, and to cover my tracks I used the blessing of the wind elementals, with the wind allowing me to silence my surroundings and making my body invisible, that was my best way to make a silent attack with the least chance of being discovered, if the worst happened the blessing would protect me from arrows.

and looking at the castle I saw the berserker that was held by countless huge black stakes preventing any kind of movement that he could make, and in the castle walls, I could see a figure who seemed to be responsible for the black stakes, although I didn't could see the appearance he looked familiar.

there was also a servant with a golden mask completely closed with no openings for the eyes or mouth and he was dressed in a purple suit that had black and white details, seeing such servant I judged him as the caster because he was making some magic circle in front of the berserker.

I could also see golems surrounding the forest the castle with a little blond boy commanding them as if they were looking for something.

and looking up I saw Powis being chased by constant arrows being fired by the enemy archer, and some had penetrated his body, in the end, it was a wise judgment to turn off his pain sensors when I injected prana into the spell, without wasting any more time, I knelt me and held out my left hand and consequently aimed the bow at the berserker's motionless head.

but the real danger was not the arrow, it was the bow that had the insane and supposed ability to increase the speed and rotation of the arrow by 10,000 times with the small probability of increasing by 35,000 times, adding my physical strength and my prana the probability no it was totally low to reach the speed of light, and all these factors made the arrow impossible to dodge after being fired because of its speed that could reach the speed of light, and no servant could react to the speed of light.

with so much advantage I didn't hesitate to let go of the bowstring, as soon as I let go of the bow I felt my hand being thrown back due to the impact of the speed and I was almost dragged from my original position, all the trees in front of me until the front of the castle were destroyed and some around me were pulled from their original places, and with all the power that the arrow was launched I was sure that the small probability had been realized.

the speed of the arrow was so insane that I couldn't even see the trajectory of the arrow, all I saw was a brief flash and then a huge hole where the berserker's head was, I had to take the chance to give one more I fire because I was sure that I had been discovered due to the sound, even though I didn't hear anything at that moment because my eardrum burst when I released the arrow.

but I didn't have time to cure my hearing loss because I planned to shoot one more arrow, so taking advantage of the enemies' surprise, I quickly pulled the bowstring again and aimed at the caster's head surprised by the berserker sudden death.

but as soon as my hand went to release the arrow I felt an object bypass the wind around me and lodge on my right shoulder, the object was so fast and strong that it had a huge impact on my right shoulder causing me to change the aim of the bow involuntarily and making me accidentally let go of the arrow.

resulting in a huge hole in the launcher's shoulder and as soon as I noticed arrows coming towards me, I immediately injected prana into my foot, and with a small burst of prana I jumped backward only to see my previous position being targeted by stakes and arrows and seeing the golems coming towards me, I didn't have to think twice to know it was time to take a step back.

I

quickly deactivated the bow by stopping the constant consumption of prana, immediately after stopping sending prana to the bow, it finally dematerialized, returning the original shape of a bracelet with a boar head but with several cracks reflecting the state of the bow after the two shots.

but I didn't have time to look at the bow's damage.

and as I was out of time I simply pulled the arrow lodged in my right shoulder with brute force and immediately used another burst of prana to the right side.

managing to successfully avoid yet another volley of arrows that penetrated the ground, creating a small crater in the place where I was previously, but even if I had managed to escape a question it came to my mind, where were the black stakes?

the answer came a second later in the form of sharp objects that penetrated my legs in three different places. only managing to immobilize me for a few seconds before they were dissipated, but those seconds were enough for an arrow to come towards me as powerful and quick as the one that had lodged in my shoulder, but that particular arrow was aimed at my head.

I could say with all certainty that I could stay alive and fight even with my body studded with arrows and my heart penetrated by a blade.

but I didn't have the confidence to say the same thing if my brain was destroyed.

The possibility of my death wasn't exactly low and with the arrows being able to penetrate my invulnerability the chances just increased and I didn't have enough prana to dodge that arrow and then dodge other attacks, so I ended up seeing myself in the situation where I had few options in addition to summoning another weapon, specifically a shield.

but my prana was too low to summon the shield, so without hesitation, I accessed my connection to my master and pulled a large amount of prana, enough to fill my reserve to 60%, but I did not have the opportunity to summon the shield because the arrow was dangerously close to my face.

I had no choice but to use a burst of prana again to the side but this time to the left, leaving a small crater on the ground while I was several meters away from the original location, but it was not enough to completely dodge the arrow.

I managed to avoid the arrow by mere centimeters, but I could not prevent the arrow from scraping my right eye, leaving my right vision blurred and red because of the blood.

it was almost as if my movements had been predicted, but that was already expected of a hero who can penetrate my invincibility.

unfortunately for the enemy, his arrow allowed me to discover his location and with the location of the servant, I could summon a spear and shoot at the enemy and I would not have to worry about arrows with the ability to pierce myself.

this was an idea until I looked at the enemy's location and consequently looked at the sky.

a vision that could only be described as hell, countless stakes were floating in the red sky, they were more than meets the eye.

seeing such a familiar sky, I ended up remembering the scenes of the battle of Camlann, whose battle seemed to have occurred a few days ago the sky filled with smoke.

that seemed to have turned red from the blood that was spilled in that battle.

the soldiers' cries of pain.

the noise of the blades colliding.

the smell of blood and charred bodies.

the mountain of corpses under my feet and the river of blood that flowed in front of me.

the fear I felt when I saw that my body was regenerating even after my four hearts had been pierced.

and finally the relief and hope I felt when I managed to take my own life.

there was no way I could forget, there was no way I could forget, the feelings and visions of that battle would haunt me for eternity, before taking my own life I had promised that if I had another chance, I would never allow that scenario to repeat itself.

it was at that moment that I realized what my dėsɨrė was.

that was it, wasn't it?

avoid that unnecessary struggle between our people, avoid killing Mordred, avoid staining my hand in Lancelot's blood.

fix my regrets about having children with Morgan, fix my regrets about not telling Arturia that I loved her.

I had countless regrets, much more than just a wish I could grant, but everything would be different if I had a second chance to draw that sword.

I would be the one who would be the king, I would be the person who would free Arturia from her burden, I would bear the enormous burden of being the king of Britain, and if I are the king, I could avoid all those regrets.

I would be king for Arturia to be happy so that I would never see that desolate expression on her face again.

that was my wish.
