Can Arknights dream about the Knights of the Round Table?

....................................................................................

Along the way, while helping people complete simple tasks such as placing large stone pillars, Tallulah lamented the changes in the mental state of the infected.

It was completely different from the period when the tyrant hated all "non-infected people" and was filled with violence and desire for destruction.

Nowadays, she is becoming more peaceful, living like an ordinary person, worrying about food and clothing, and thinking about three meals a day... This is what she once imagined, and what she wanted to lead the integration movement to become.It was also something I had been imagining, thinking hard to find an opportunity to get a "home" for the infected.

It's a pity that she couldn't do it.

Unfortunately, she was eventually swallowed up by the fire of hatred, leading the infected who trusted her into the abyss of destruction.

However, except for a small number of high-level cadres in the former integration movement, the vast majority of grassroots integration movement members have little prejudice against her, the defeated former leader, and it can even be said that they have some respect.After all, in a sense, if she hadn't lost to Ozwald Artoris and "given up" her position, all the infected people in the Integration Movement wouldn't be able to live the good life they are now, right?Anyway, they are very satisfied with the status quo.

Based on this, infected people who are not aware of many hidden secrets in past events will always take the initiative to greet Tallulah after seeing her and recognizing her identity; of course, there are also some who are more lively. I hope to use Tallulah as a breakthrough point to climb up to the Ozwaldian relationship of "city lord", "king", "leader" or other titles.

Tallulah responded to them with somewhat stiff words.Especially when it came to those members of the Integration Movement that she could name, who were the members of the Integration Movement before Chernobog was taken down, her eyes kept dodging, and she didn't have the courage to look directly at them.

Because she felt guilty.

Tallulah felt that she had betrayed the trust of these companions, and she did not think that she was qualified to be accepted and thanked by them.She could no longer hold her head up because she would have killed everyone if she had not been stopped - because in fact, a large number of her members died during the attack on Chernobog and the invasion of Dragon Gate.

Even if the person giving the order is not her true self, the Black Dragon's personality will only reflect the truest wishes in her heart... All the snake's actions must revolve around Tallulah Atrias; she must first have someone This kind of wish can only be misinterpreted and exploited.

The death of every trusted person is directly related to Tallulah.

The life of every innocent person was weighing down on her.

It is precisely because of this that, except for a few people who are familiar with each other to a certain extent, such as Frost Star and Patriot, when facing almost all members of the former integration movement, Dragon Girl only feels that their sights and invisible hearts are filled with confusion. Even those who are smiling will subconsciously feel that it is just a polite compliment, and will change their face when no one is around in private - in fact, such a guy will definitely exist, It will be there no matter where or when you go.

Therefore, Tallulah couldn't stay near these former companions for too long due to the feeling of needles and needles, and finally left here as if running away; she could not finally breathe a sigh of relief until she reached that person's side.

"I can't force myself on this, but I still want to say... Tallulah, you are just too serious, that's why you are like this."

Ozward put down his hands from the dark stone tower where he had melted the magic inscriptions. After checking that there were no problems before turning on the autonomous operation, Ozwald exhaled and comforted Tallu who was wiping the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief. .

"Obviously you are the biggest victim."

"I know...Oswald. I just can't let go."

The dragon girl gave a helpless smile, and subconsciously wrapped her tail around Ozwald.Let the latter touch the slender and soft branches mixed with the dragon blood of the two countries, his cheeks turned red and he let out a cry.

After she touched the tail, which felt completely different from her own, for a while without resisting and even enjoying it, Ozwald suggested while circling the tip of Tallulah's tail with his fingers:

"How about going out for a walk together?"

"Is it okay!" She was a little surprised; but while she was happy, she was also a little embarrassed: "But will this affect your business? Compared with my personal problems, it is still..."

"If you can't make the girls close to you happy, then you have no right to talk about big things~~"

Interrupting Tallulah's words, Ozwald took the initiative and put his arm around her shoulders.

"Let's go. Go relax."

"……it is good."

After trying to break free without much effort, Tallulah, who was really unable to break free, held Ozwald's arm with a smile on her face.

The pace is brisk.

The Legend of King Arthur of True Terra - The Last Day of Qi Castle: 118 Tomorrow is a new month, it’s time to work hard and not touch anymore

Holding Tallulah's hand...or to be more precise, letting the woman hold her arm, the two drake slowly moved away from each other with an intimate look as if they were a newlywed young couple. Enter the gantry at the checkpoint outside the mobile city.

Of course, when the afterglow of the major crisis in Longmen has not completely dissipated, external inspections should be very strict as usual; however, the inspection station personnel responsible for the inspection noticed that the clothes of this visitor were not ordinary people, so it was not certain that they were very strict. Wealth is precious, and it may even be the investors who came to Longmen to invest after looking at the situation, so after careful consideration, they turned a blind eye and pretended to scan them with the instrument before letting them go---or maybe they did it afterwards. If these members of the Guards Bureau, who earn ordinary salaries, really love their jobs and are loyal enough to the Governor-General.

"Although you are considered one of the owners of this city, it turns out that you are not very proficient in Yanguo, Tallulah."

"Sir, what you said is so good! I haven't been to Dayan for many years." Tallulah retorted with a slightly bulging cheek.This woman, who legally has the same level of control over the Dragon Gate as Wei Yanwu, can't figure out why he is so accustomed to talking about it even though he has never been to Yan Country. Could it be that he has practiced it in private?

She is incomprehensible.

"Maybe I learned it in my previous life~~"

Ozwald's eyes were playful and pointed.

However, he did not stay on this issue for too long. After all, to put it bluntly... Yanguo was a "homeland" that was more sad than happy for Tallulah Atrias.

If the conversation was too in-depth, it would easily make her fall in love with the scene, so Ozwald changed the topic and took advantage of the current season to talk about eating joints that had begun to gradually reopen. While chatting with Tallulah, he looked for a more prosperous place. pedestrian mall

However, after arriving on the street, Ozwald quickly realized that someone was watching the situation here - clearly targeting the two red dragons who were shopping.

As for why he can detect it... it can't be said that Ozwald still maintains a high degree of vigilance in his daily travels, which is a persecutory delusional behavior that he would never be able to do unless he was seriously ill; the main reason is because the other party is looking at this too openly. Side.

He didn't even have any intention of hiding it. After Ozwald initially noticed the abnormality and looked over twice, he simply found a nearby stall and sat there, sitting across from each other, drinking hot drinks, and recovering in the early spring. In the chilly wind, the two drak glanced at them from time to time.

Especially when Oswald and Tallulah were in certain stores, the other party seemed to be calculating the time to leave. Soon after, Tallulah was probably satisfied, and Ozwald was about to check out. At the delicate time, help the "next lucky guest" complete the payment.

"It's really the person above, right? I just don't know who it means, maybe Wen Yue?"

Such an overly obvious act of kindness, Ozwald took a guess at the personalities of the Governor and his wife, and felt that Wen Yue was more likely. She had a compensatory behavior like an aunt stuffing a senna into a niece she had not seen for many years. .

There is actually nothing to say about this, and Ozwald doesn't bother to expose it, so he leaves it to her - even if he guesses wrong, it doesn't matter that it's not Wen Yue but Wei Yanwu who has a purpose; then all the purchases will be made Just put the things down on the spot and just carry Tallu and pull her away; if you don't take anything with you, there is no need to blame someone for having short hands.

"Well, if you really don't understand, it's okay not to buy it~~ There are always things in the world that others are good at but you don't know how to do. There's no need to follow those stereotypes; if it doesn't work, I'll find a specialized designer when the time comes. Just order a few styles for Tallulah."

"Hmm...Okay, I'll listen to you sir."

A pale pink blush appeared on her fair cheeks, and Tallulah responded in a voice as thin as a mosquito.

I visited several clothing and jewelry stores along the way, and finally found that this kind of behavior was really not in line with my temperament, and that I couldn't match the Dragon Girl at all. After being exposed by Ozwald, I had to give up trying to imitate the way the world treats girls. I always like to go shopping in stores to buy cosmetics and jewelry.

"Then, do you want to return these?"

Tallulah glanced at the bags that Ozwald was carrying with the tip of his tail, and asked what to do with them... Strictly speaking, it could only be said that she looked good, but in reality, she had no idea how to match the cosmetics. with small jewelry.

After all, she had lived a hard life on the ice field, and she really couldn't afford to waste things that would not be useful after buying them back, especially when these things were clearly luxuries.

However, Ozwald helped the hesitant Tallulah make up her mind: "It's okay, it's fine as a souvenir for Elena."

"If it's something you're not good at, then she's completely clueless~~~"

"Eh?!"

Tallulah blinked.

Ozwald closed his left eye, pointed the tip of his tongue to the same side, and gave Tallulah a thumbs up.

Soon, Tallulah, who realized that Oswald was trying to divert trouble to the east, lightly covered the corners of her mouth and let out a sweet chuckle like a silver bell; she asked.

"Then, can Yelena know how to apply eyebrows? Can she master how to apply powder?"

"I can't say, but I guess she will make a mess. Paint herself in a weird way..." Ozwald picked up the hair on both sides of his head with both hands and straightened it into the shape of ears; he pretended to be fierce. ' shouted: "Like the scary Bunnyman! Crazy Carters!!"

"Wow~~~"

A soft cry of pleasure also sounded from the dragon girl's mouth, and her pair of phoenix eyes gradually narrowed due to her emotions, like two curved crescent moons; the bright, watery pupils beneath them were vaguely visible.

She laughed at such a simple and innocuous joke, enjoying the sweetness that these words like tea dots could bring.

And she had not tasted this ordinary and simple happiness for a long time.

The snowfields of Ursus are cold and merciless, and the weight of reality hits her, the leader of the infected, one after another; she has no time to laugh, let alone play with others, and every effort must be made to work hard for tomorrow. , every thought must be spent thinking about the next meal of the infected person... She has given everything but in vain, until she is swallowed up in a ruthless and desperate avalanche...

"!"

After the laughter, there is panic;

I was afraid that the scene in front of me was just a dream that deceived myself and others, and that I would return to the bottomless abyss again - until my heart trembled because of this, I suddenly realized that the cold winter was over, and the warm sunshine of early spring had become clear and gentle. sprinkled on himself.

[Just leave the rest to me]

"Oswald..."

"Ah? Is there something wrong?"

"You will always stay by my side, right?"

"That's about it, as long as you still need it, Tallulah."

"Ok!"

The dragon girl grasped the opponent's arm tightly, as if grasping her own straw.

But at the same time, she also realized something through these words.

The Legend of King Arthur of True Terra - The Last Day of Qi Castle: 119 I just want to protect you (confirmed)

"By the way, even though more than a month has passed, the New Year flavor in Longmen is still very strong."

Walking into Pacific Place, which has basically been rebuilt, Tallulah looked at the shops with red decorations around them and felt a little emotional.

After all, he was a serious person born in Longmen. Even if his memory becomes blurred over time, he still has an impression that the Yan Kingdom has a unique calendar and festivals that are different from the mainland calendar.

"In contrast, there is no such atmosphere in Ursus. It is just the end of another ordinary year."

"Regarding this, due to my own experience, I am not qualified to comment, so I will not express an opinion."

"Is it because Victoria doesn't have a strong atmosphere in Great Yan?"

"Absolutely; but the essence is that I am not very involved in this kind of thing. When I am interested, I don't have time, and when I have time, the situation does not allow it. Besides, as the saying goes, I am actually out of touch with civilized society for almost six months. It’s been [-], so the last time I participated in a festival was the celebration in Rutland more than six years ago..."

Ozwald thought about it carefully and finally came to this result that surprised even him.

Of course, this also aroused Tallulah's doubts.

"why?"

"Most of the time there is no chance to relax, so you have to seize the time to prepare."

Red Dragon gave a concise and concise answer.

Looking back on everything that has happened so far, whether it was the first few years after escaping from Londinium or the Witch King's remnants, they were all facing direct and huge pressure to survive, and they had no choice but to relax.

Even in Casimir it wasn't much better.A stable life is just an appearance at first glance, just like the surface of a lake... It is certainly peaceful when there is no wind, but once there is a 'rockfall' like the White Wolf, the life that has been built so hard will be easily destroyed. Destroyed.

Grand Knight Commander Ioletta did acquiesce that he would not announce his presence in Casimir to anyone, but at the same time he would not provide him with any protection.And this must be based on the premise that he does not develop; when there are many things that he dislikes but cannot do, living is actually frustrating.

And after running to the Ursus Snowfield with Amaego, although he was still entangled in the vortex from the past (royal power), he finally lived the kind of life that he relatively liked - [Using a sword and clenching his fist to blow up everything in front of him. The kind of days that are like RPG games, killing monsters (evils) with nothing to do, and exploding gold coins to improve the food for everyone... Even if there are no luxuries, everyone is together and is surrounded like the king of children. The days are very happy.

However, just like the bitter experience I had with Metatron, socializing will bring troubles.

——When many people are sincerely looking forward to you and regard you as their hope, savior, and hero... Various voices call you and look at you every day... It's hard not to feel this way when you are among these things. Feel moved.Especially when these people still have a good relationship with you and are going through hardships together, it is even more difficult to sit back and do nothing.

Reality is not a game, and it cannot be given up easily without a corresponding sense of guilt; at least Ozwald cannot.

Therefore, Ozwald, who regarded himself as a normal [person], could not help but think about the consequences of those who are overwhelmed by the burden of life, and he would feel sad.

I felt irritated before to take this step, and I will feel the same in the future.

But he will eventually move forward.

If this is the only way, Yelena, Bozokasti, D... can survive.If only this could prevent this cannibalistic earth from eating up our friends.

"Rather than standing in front of a dead person's grave and lamenting, it is indeed better to stand in front of a living person and bleed and curse."

As he was talking, Ozwald passed by a small shop and bought a golden musical instrument that looked like a trumpet and was known as the king among the Yan people.

Honglong, who had never learned any relevant blowing techniques and relied solely on trying out the skills on the spot, was of course unable to produce any wonderful sound. After several attempts, he could only make an unpleasant air leakage sound like "Puff" and "Puff".

Really bad sound.

So although Ozwald had no intention of giving up, after playing for a while, he couldn't stand his poor performance. He scratched his head and paused, then took a sneak peek at Tallulah's face.

Of course, the dragon girl would not criticize the red dragon for this.And in fact, she was not in the mood to care about this trivial matter at the moment.

From what Ozwald described about the time he spent with Yelena, the Patriots and other northern guerrillas, as well as the troubles of the expectations of the infected, Tallulah couldn't help but think that she was also expected; she was at that time Like most of the integration movement, they firmly believe that they can give infected people a home where they can live an equal life.

The result is disappointing.

But as the leader of the former integration movement, no matter how much she believed in Ozwald who rescued her from the black snake, Tallulah still asked for comfort, and couldn't help but ask one more question:

"Speaking of which, Ozwald, where will you finally place everyone in the integration movement? Victoria?"

"It's possible, but not certain. Everything depends on the actual situation." Ozwald nodded: "If nothing unexpected happens, then after a while, the infected people will develop a higher attitude towards my instructions. Once you are recognized, you will basically refer to the current template, and be arranged by me to work in a farm or a forest garden, and do simple work to support yourself --- just like [ordinary people]."

"That's good, thank you. No matter how many times I express my sincere gratitude to you, Ozwald."

Dragon Girl said gratefully.However, the frown was not completely relaxed.

——It is true that the integration movement has been saved now, but so many infected people on the mainland are still trapped in conflicts with non-infected people...or even with the rulers; perhaps other countries are not Although Emperor Ursus was not as extreme as treating infected people like animals, the practice of using ore disease to make a fuss about the conflicts between the middle and lower classes of society more or less existed.

Moreover, even the holy city of Lateran, which is recognized by the world of Terra as being tolerant, still lurks insurmountable contradictions such as the relationship between Riboli and Sarkota.

So, how many contradictions are there that are insurmountable and even seem to have no solution in this land full of suffering?
