Artoria the Big Liar

"That's right, that's the matter... Mordred, since you can look at this matter rationally, what's your answer?"

Mordred hesitated for a moment, but only for a moment, he gave an answer: "After examining my heart rationally, my answer is still the same as before - I know, father, you will definitely reject me .However, I will still stick to my own emotions. I know that this kind of thinking is distorted and should not exist. But based on my own conditions and judgments, I think... At least for now, it is not a solution to this problem when."

She said it very tactfully, leaving me and her a very rich room for retreat.

Before, I could still use her immaturity as an excuse.But now, this reason is no longer valid.

——Then follow Mordred's own ideas.

With that in mind, I nodded.

"Mordred, I will not force you to give up. My way of education is like this. I never force my children to do anything, but make the other party really want to do it. However, I hope that after you When solving this problem, you can think carefully. At least you must understand what it means, what kind of responsibility you need to take, and what consequences it will lead to.”

"I'll try to figure it out, Father...it just takes some time."

That being the case, I have nothing to worry about on Mordred's side.

Children will grow up one day, go out independently, and develop and embrace their own life.

Mordred can clearly recognize this, I am very happy, even happier than reaching the agreement with Jeanne.

Then, from Mordred's answer, I can also answer Jeanna's first question.

"I understand, Jeanne. In your opinion, I am actually beautiful, right? At least in your perspective, I am much more beautiful than yourselves. It is no exaggeration to say that I am the most beautiful existence in the world." Burning The bonfire', the 'dark sun'... It turns out that I have been misunderstood. The focus is not on burning, but also on the darkness, but on the bonfire and the sun. As a result, your aesthetics and my own are actually the same .”

The beauty of the skin is indeed important, but it is not important to us-it can be changed if it is not good-looking, it can be done with a few magic tricks, and plastic surgery can also be done in modern times.But the light that the soul emits, and the temperament that emanates from within, and the feeling of smiling, is the decisive thing.

When the light I unleash surpasses the sun, it doesn't matter to everyone whether my essence is black or burning.

The maid outfit can't suppress my aura. In fact, it's not caused by my dragon eyes, but my life experience has transformed into aura and released it through my eyes.That lovely, pitiful image of me in their minds was also revealed because I closed my eyes and fell asleep from exhaustion.

"That's right, Arturia, you are the most beautiful person in the world."

Jeanna's voice was extremely firm, as if this was the truth she firmly believed in.

Chapter 35: Mordred

◆Artoria◆

Back to Wang Jie, Merlin and Jeanna, we quickly ate our own candied haws, and we continued to wander around the festival.

Sunny day dolls, amulets, sachets, and all kinds of souvenirs, no matter they are useful or not, as long as they are leftovers, I will try my best to buy a copy for everyone. It won't be sold until the new year.

Of course, the person who pays is still Wang Jie.Before I started my business, the family's financial power was still in the hands of Sister Wang.

The night was getting dark, and with plastic bags full of things in our hands, we walked back home together.

After the pace of life slows down, I like to walk on the street more and more, chatting with everyone about the latest news, various gossip, the latest technology products and other insignificant topics.The most important thing to be with your family is to talk together.If you don't speak for a long time, no matter how hot your feelings are, they will gradually cool down.

Humans are social animals.Even the relationship with family members is not handled well, and the relationship with other people is not very good.

My body and mind were completely relaxed, and the night gradually approached midnight, and my consciousness drifted to the other side again.

When I opened my eyes, it was still the overly luxurious big bed.I lay quietly on the bed, still wearing the black armor and dress, as if these had become part of my body.

There was no one around, and it was daytime outside the window.Tonali has a lot of things to deal with, it is impossible to stay in the boudoir all day.

Looking at the oversized bedroom, I tried to find that familiar figure.

Logically speaking, when the dream is synchronized, Mordred will appear by my side.

But, looking around, let alone Mordred, this oversized bedroom doesn't even have a waiter or a guard.

Since the connection in the dream was inherently unstable, I had no choice but to keep this matter in my heart and start sorting out the knowledge in my mind—I was not only Tona Riko's "husband" in the dream, but also her "mentor".

Before I can train her to be a qualified king, I must prepare lessons well...

◆Mordred◆

He was obviously walking on the road, not far from his father, but the next moment, the scenery in front of him was not Miyama Town in the middle of the night, but the wilderness of Britain—there was a small white flower similar to the white crystal chrysanthemum that was only found in Britain in the mysterious era Growth, it has no name, it is just a wild flower on the side of the road, but it remembers the past of Britain, the day when the world and the paradise communicated freely.

When I lived with my father, this kind of white flower was very rare, and I only saw it in my mother's garden.

But now, at first glance, the ground was full of these flowers, almost as common as the foxtail.

It doesn't take much thinking to know that I must have come to the Lost Belt that my father mentioned.

It's just that this is not the palace that the father said, and I can't find the father.

Taking a deep breath, I tried to calm my mind and check my physical state first.

Unlike my father's dream-loading where I can't control my emotions, my consciousness is very clear, and my body is completely under my control.There is no problem at all with both hands simulating typing on the keyboard, and there are no errors.Trying to recall the values ​​of pi and natural logarithm in the brain, the brain does not have any dull and unclear feeling. 【%

I am wearing the most common blouse and jeans, which are my favorite clothes, because these are daily necessities purchased by my father, not gifts from holidays.Clenching his fists, the dark red lightning crackled, proving that there was nothing wrong with his body.The sword and armor hidden in the body are not lost and can be revealed at any time.

Rather than borrowing someone else's body to make my consciousness enter the dream state, it's more like my body was directly transported here.

"It's really strange... There are problems with this strange news, I have to find some time to ask the mother of this world."

Even my mother admitted that it was her from another world, so I have nothing to worry about.

The terrain of Britain is very flat, and it is impossible to climb high and look far.So, in this wilderness, I tried to find roads and rivers.You can find towns along the roads, and you can find villages along the rivers. No matter which world you are in, this is the same principle.

Sticks and shadows allow me to identify the direction, and my strong body allows me to run quickly in the wilderness.

Contrary to what I remembered, the further I went, the muddy the ground became.There is also a rancid smell in the air, the trees are getting taller and darker, and the poisonous mushrooms on the ground are getting bigger and bigger.I gradually stepped into the swampland—not the real swamp, but the goblin land that grows wildly in the environment full of real ether.

"...It's so strange, if it's a goblin territory, I should be able to see goblins."

I muttered to myself and looked around.Before I knew it, I had a feeling of being lost in this swampy jungle.

Once you have this feeling in the land of goblins, then you are really lost here.No one can leave this area until the feeling of disorientation disappears—this is what my mother told me.

Realizing this, I revealed my sword and armor, ready to fight.

"I'm afraid, there is something that scares the goblins, so there are no goblins?"

I continued to move forward with great interest, I didn't know how far I walked, I didn't know how long I walked, and finally found human footprints.

Following the footprints, I finally stopped in front of a small wooden hut - the hut is very low, the walls are only two meters high.Huge umbrella mushrooms grow on the roof, completely covering the wooden house below to keep out the rain.The walls and roofs were covered with vines, like the old poor man's patches, which started out as reinforcements and repairs and ended up becoming the log houses themselves.Even the umbrella mushroom with a diameter of about ten meters is supported by these vines.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, I removed my sword and armor, walked straight to the door of the wooden house, and knocked lightly on the door.

"Who is it?" I was stunned when I heard this moment.

With the creaking door, a familiar face appeared in my field of vision.

Sunny blonde hair, emerald eyes, thin body and face, and most importantly, the almost identical hairstyle.Combined with her voice, my sensibility overwhelmed my reason and let me say that title...

"Father?"

"Father? What does 'Father' mean?"

She frowned slightly, looked rather confused, and looked me up and down like a stranger.

Taking advantage of this brief gap, I realized that the person in front of me was neither my father nor the King Arthur of pan-human history.

Her eyes were very clean, rather too clean, without any gloomy and steady temperament.She was dressed in simple white linen, with an ugly yarmulke on her head, and a dress of the most plain and tasteless colour.

Moreover, the most important thing is that she is a goblin——as a descendant of Vortigern, I absolutely admit that this is wrong.

So she is not the father, but just like the mother of this world, she is just an existence similar to the father.

"Ah, sorry, I got the wrong person... You look a lot like someone I know."

"So... who are you? What are you doing at my house?【!

The emerald-like eyes were trembling, the voice was weak, and the hand holding the door began to clenched.

She is afraid, and there are secrets in her heart.And because of this fear, she dared not take a hostile attitude towards me.

She is really like a village girl, not to mention a king, even a soldier with a little more courage is far inferior.

So, even though she looks alike on the outside, I have completely separated her image from my father in my heart.

"I'm really rude, I should introduce myself first..." I took a breath through my nose, squinted my eyes, raised a smile at the corner of my mouth, put my right hand on my heart, and bowed slightly, with the accent of an English gentleman , introduced herself to her: "My name is Mordred. I lost my way in the wilderness and followed the trails to come here. Beautiful magician, I mean no harm. I just want to ask a simple question Question—can you tell me, who has never faced a mask, that your name is...?"

"Momo Mordred, hello, hello!" As if she had a fever, her face was dyed the color of sunset, hesitating and stuttering, it was like a country girl who often daydreams really saw Prince Charming . "My name is Arturia! It's a magician who lives in seclusion here! Yes, it's a magician!"

The moment I heard that name, a bomb exploded in my heart, making my brain go blank for an instant.

But I'm not who I used to be.Even though I encountered such a big shock, I was prepared in my heart after all, my smile did not change, and my expression remained unchanged.

"Artoria...that's a nice name." I commented sincerely, "Then, Artoria, can you tell me where this is, and how can I get out of here?"

"...Ah!" She screamed, suddenly remembered something, and quickly took a step back.Then, he picked up the staff placed in the corner, held it tightly in his arms, and tried to accumulate magic power at the top of the staff. "You can't lie to me! You must be the pursuer of the Fang Clan! You must follow the Queen's order and come to arrest me!"

"Clan of Fangs? Chasing soldiers?" These novel words made me feel puzzled.

"Mei... No! The Chosen Rod has already told me! You must be the pursuer of the Fang Clan!" She was flustered, dominated by fear, but tried to muster up the courage to fight.

My heart really wants to tell her that I don't know what the Clan of Fangs is.

But it's definitely not okay to say that, and she will be taken as cheating.Subsequent conversations can become difficult.

So, after thinking for a few seconds, I decided to tease this little girl who had never seen the world.

"The queen's order? Arrest?" I straightened up, tilted my head slightly, and looked at her with interest. "Is that so... In other words, you are wanted by your mother? I really didn't expect that an interesting guy could be caught today."

"Mother, mother, mother...!!" She was completely aphasic, unable to speak at all.

I doubt that she, who is so panic-stricken, will be able to recite the spell.

With a "boom", dark red lightning exploded on my body, turning into silver armor.

After my heart changed, so did my armor.Removed the useless skirt, more delicate【*

My height has grown a bit, and so has the armor, which perfectly fits my body shape, which is the same as before.

I don't wear a helmet - it's just an ornament, to deter enemies.The armor itself is actually an enchantment. As long as it is displayed, even if someone shoots at my head, the copper bullet will be crushed as quickly as it hit the armor of a tank.

"That's right, Queen Morgan is my mother. Didn't I say, my name is Mordred?"

She didn't speak, just looked at me with wide eyes, her body was completely stiff, and she was completely frightened.

Even the magic power accumulated on the staff disappeared, it was like a mouse caught by a cat, motionless.

"So, Artoria, do you have anything else to say? Claim that you are wrong? Do you think my identity is fake? It's a pity, even if you are not wanted by your mother, I have to take you back " After a pause, I squinted my eyes, tilted my head, stepped forward casually, and whispered in her ear: "Did I say that? I regarded you as another person—I saw you say What's the first word of , you should have an impression?"

"Is... Father?" She replied mechanically.

"That's right, it's my father and king." After a pause, I said, "The shadow that hangs over this land, my mother's mentor, the existence that has no country, no territory, but is higher than all kings—that It is my father, the evil dragon king Vortigern, the strongest and most perfect king in British history."

She swallowed, her eyes trembling to the extreme.

I put my hands on her shoulders, close to her ears, blowing my breath through the roots of her hair.

"Artoria, you sure don't want to get hurt, right? I'm the child of the king and the queen, with the blood of the dragon flowing through my body. If there is a conflict, or if you disappear from my sight, it may not be serious for me to strike ——Then, Arturia, can you follow me? I have the vision of a dragon, so it may be difficult to escape, okay?"

She was still standing there, terrified, terrified.

I frowned slightly - I realized that she was too weak to let all the goblins in the swamp move away en masse.On the contrary, she took the risk to hide in this swamp in order to avoid being wanted by the queen mother of this world.And the reason why she is so frightened is not my attitude and words, but that thing is approaching here.

The reason, of course, was the movement I made when I called out the armor.

I heard a low growl, and a giant panting.

Even though this is a swamp and the ground is very soft, its footsteps still make the earth tremble.

Then, I saw a huge black shadow and two rows of sharp white teeth.

"...Oh? Barghast Bagster has turned into this? It seems that this world is still quite unfriendly to goblins. This kind of goblin killer can become so big and so strong."

Chapter 36: Dreaming in Wonderland

◆Mordred◆

I met the eyes of the dog demon, I saw its fury, and it saw my disdain.

If the two top beasts cannot avoid each other, then there is only one result - fighting.

Either one party flees, giving up its territory and dignity.Either one party dies, and from then on the land belongs to only one of them.

Full of confidence in my heart, I held the slender sword, walked slowly, raised my head, and walked towards the dog demon.
