"The gap between us is not so exaggerated.

"Although my sword skills are more advanced than yours, the reason why you will lose is because you are too conservative, Artorius——you are always on the defensive, and you hardly use aggressive moves. .”

The girl tilted her head.

"But you are not my enemy, Senior Alvin, if you are accidentally injured, it will be very distressing to deal with."

"Then what about your own injury?" Su Shu asked, "It's okay for others to be injured, so it doesn't matter if you are injured."

"I can recover, let me tell you quietly, my physique is naturally so resistant to beating~"

Wiping the bloodstains on her face with a rough sackcloth, her words were relaxed and tinged with joy, as if there was no distress about defeat at all.

Su Shu was silent for a moment.

This is how you never consider your own character, which will lead to your tragedy

"You still act so happy after being beaten up, you don't have any weird hobbies, do you?"

"Of course it is."

The girl naturally failed to understand Su Shu's teasing, and said with a smile,

"Because, I'm really happy to make friends, not to mention you invited me to dinner."

heard this language.

Su Shu couldn't help but froze for a moment.

"Friends

"—You obviously beat you so miserably without mercy, but do you think I'm your friend?"

"It's the longing-for senior. You should have left your hands to take care of me. You can tell that I'm as slow as I am in this kind of thing."

Looking at her splendor.

Su Shu shifted his gaze away.

stay?

No, it's like I found an interesting toy, and I want to tear you apart

Facing the girl's answer like this, he couldn't bear to look directly into those eyes that were as clear as jasper.

"Look at the situation here, you have been training alone for a long time."

The silver-haired boy lowered his eyelids, trying to change the subject.

"Artorius, don't you have any friends?"

"It's a bit embarrassing to say, but I don't have the advantage of being popular like you and me, senpai."

That sounds like a humble statement.

To some extent it is true.

Too handsome looks only

Can lead to jealousy among peers.

Because of her special status, she clearly understands that she cannot be ostentatious.

In the eyes of outsiders, the adoptive father is just a down-and-out old knight. Why does he have any attractive qualities?

As she said herself-

"No welcome pluses"

Plain and low-key is what a girl can spend every day in peace.

Her origins are both complex and idiosyncratic.

Why do you have to disguise yourself as a man, and why do you have to practice swordsmanship, study state affairs, and be told to give up your self-feelings as a human being when you are sensible?

Just because the girl is expected to become the "ideal king" of Britain.

Weak humans have limits.

Uther, who lost to Vortigern, understood this.

Therefore, if you are not a human being, you may be able to transcend the limitations of being a human being and get rid of the troubles of being a human being.

Therefore, according to this line of thinking, Uther and Merlin tried in vain to create an "ideal king" to rule Britain perfectly.

With such a purpose, she was artificially designed, a "container" belonging to the king.

It is precisely because of this that the girl has never seen the true appearance of her parents.

In fact, she couldn't put any emotion into it, such as the hopes or wishes of the former king Uther.

For the teacher Merlin's teaching day after day, I don't feel any special mission or touch.

During these 11 years, the only things that have really inspired her are the ordinary days spent with her adoptive father and brother-in-law, as well as the joyous and joyful noises of people living in the town.

But that is neither longing nor love.

It's just because she wants to protect this peace - such a thing is a good thing in her opinion.

No indignation, no questioning, no resentment of any kind

The girl accepted her life experience frankly.

Occasionally, she thought about how wonderful it would be to be a member of the town and spend her life peacefully with her family—but she dared not have such a luxurious wish.

Even though sometimes she would paint such a happy picture in her mind, she calmly dismissed the idea immediately.

That's because the girl knew from the bottom of her heart that if she chose that way, she would only lose everything.

The life of a girl named Artoria exists to become a king.

The vastness of Britain cannot tolerate this single happiness.

But at least, "friend"

Occasionally, I still have delusions, there is a heart-to-heart friend who can talk

longing for friends.

however

Chapter 19 Defile this divinity (Eighth)

At this moment.

Facing the longing senior in front of her eyes, the girl found that her heart seemed to relax like never before.

Ahhh, "friends", it's such a relaxing relationship

just.

Looking at Su Shu's drooping eyelids and hesitant expression, the girl immediately realized her "offence" once again.

"Hug, I'm sorry! I treated you as a friend without authorization, I really am"

"No, I'm glad to be your first friend, Artorius."

Su Shu said with a smile like this, and looked at the vast golden wheat field.

Oh my friend

This is a good opportunity to get closer and then corrupt her.

"Not only that, but you will have more and more friends in the future, so don't belittle yourself too much."

"Thank you! Senior Alvin!"

Actually, because I have a friend, my face is flushed with excitement, no, it seems to be blood oozing from my forehead

Looking at the girl's excited face.

Inexplicably, Su Shu felt a slight touch in his heart, which was a kind of pity and sorrow that he couldn't bear to think about.

"The following request may be too presumptuous, but if you are free, can you come and discuss with me more in the future?"

The girl looked at the broken wooden swords on the ground, and she decided to make more new ones in the future.

"only,"

She seemed to be thinking about it again with some distress,

"After eating your meal and making such an unreasonable request, I don't seem to have anything to return to you."

Goo—the more I think about this, the more ashamed I feel, the girl almost got into the ground.

"I've always wanted to ask, is this wheat field owned by old Sir Hector? May I ask if it belongs to you, Artorius?"

"It's my er, my lord father."

Hector was not allowed

Xu, use these four words to call him.

But now, he can't hear it anyway, so it doesn't matter if you call it that way?

Although forbidden to speak.

The girl had already admitted this fact in her heart.

"That's just right. I want to borrow your field for a while. It will be of great help if I can lease or sell the solid growth of this wheat field to me."

Actually, Su Shu doesn't necessarily want the fields here.

If he spoke, his father Vortigern would naturally set aside a large piece of fertile arable land in Londinium for him, and even allocate a few groups of Anza people to pick cotton and so on.

But, then there would be no reason to come to Artoria frequently.

"Sense of being needed" is a high-level emotional need.

Even if it's asking for something trivial, like help peel an apple or something.

Showing a "need each other" attitude is the only way to get closer to each other.

It can also be regarded as a little philosophy of life that Su Shu has mixed up in his previous life.

"Ah! If my father heard that it was your request, he would gladly agree to it. It's just that senior Alvin, are you going to farm?"

The girl looked at Su Shu in disbelief. Such a person with high martial arts skills would actually bow down in the farmland or something. It sounded like King Arthur was a woman.

"There is a topic that I want to study."

Just kidding, farming is an absolute instinct engraved in the DNA of Chong Chinese people.

Saying this, Su Shu couldn't help recalling the stinky faces of those people who laughed at him when he was doing research on wheat yield in the clock tower.

It is said that the mud legs are only used for breeding, but Su Shu applied for a patent in advance very predictably.

So, despite the exorbitantly high prices, families are now scrambling to buy their own ether-rich "Top True" flour, which is said to replenish magic more than ordinary food.

Magicians also need food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. It can only be said that British guys don’t know what food is the first thing that people eat, and they like to suck their blood hard and look at their painful expressions.

"As for practicing sword and sparring with you, it is also for me to temper myself, so I am naturally disrespectful.

"It's just Artorius, your pointless insistence on your sword skills will only make your path more and more thorny."

Su Shu unceremoniously pointed out her immaturity, how difficult it is to uphold the principles of peace in this turbulent world, but unexpectedly

"It must be that I am far from strong enough."

The girl just smiled and replied,

"If I become strong enough, so strong that I don't need to use weapons—then even the demon dragon Vortigern can make him catch him without a fight, and leave a chance for us to communicate well?"

The voice is exhausted.

The lingering sound seems to echo in this wind chant.

The soft blond hair was swaying in the wind, Su Shu looked at the girl in men's clothing in a daze, unable to say a word.
