Walk past the breathless Knights of the Round Table.

Su Shu saw Kai's bitter smile, and saw him raise his hand, as if he wanted to hold him.

"Alvin"

"Brother Kai, thank you for being with Lily all the way. From now on, I may have to trouble you to take care of her."

"You have changed so much, Alvin"

"Well, sorry, I can't give you grilled fish."

I've learned it myself, Alvin!It's delicious. Do you want to eat it?

In the end, he couldn't say it.

That hand couldn't be raised in the end.

He is too far away.

as far as the wind.

Surrounded by the knights and silently, the dark knight walked towards the field outside the town.

No one dares to ask, no one dares to stop.

Standing in the dim sunlight.

He turned around at the end of the street.

The ethereal figure seemed to dissipate with the wind.

"Artoria, I'm here uninvited, so I'm going to cause you trouble."

Su Shu said with a smile.

The voice, which was obviously not loud, was transmitted to the round table very clearly.

The blond girl just stared at him.

His dark shadow was reflected in the dark green eyes.

"I know, you still have a lot of questions to ask, don't you?

"I will answer.

"I know you're at a loss right now, so, until then, take care of your own business.

"By the way, Hector, you didn't have time to see him, did you? I often go to see him, his old man

The family's body is still very tough. "

instead of his fingertips.

The wind gently stroked her cheek.

"Remember, the wheat field where we practiced swords

"Since it's a place where we met.

"Perhaps it would be a good place to say goodbye."

Su Shu said with a smile.

"I'll be right there waiting for you.

"I will wait for you there within today, Artoria.

"I am waiting for your question, and I am waiting for your answer.

"I know what you're carrying, Arturia.

"However, loving everyone without distinction is the same as loving no one, Artoria. Wanting to save everyone without distinction can't even save yourself in the end.

"Words of fear.

"Come and hold my hand

"Words of confusion.

"Don't draw that sword."

The voice is exhausted.

His shadow seemed to melt under the sun.

Facing the complicated sights of the knights.

The blond girl that everyone was looking at fell off the steed in a daze.

With a trance expression.

Slowly, step by step, she walked up to the king-choosing sword.

She used to be extremely afraid of this thing in front of her eyes.

Because, I was always told that to become a king, one had to be ruthless.

The so-called king is the existence that kills the most people in order to protect the people.

When she was young, she thought about such things every night, her body began to tremble because of extreme fear, and she couldn't stop until dawn.

She doesn't go a day without being afraid to be king.

But at this moment, he stood in front of the sword.

But as if in a trance, I felt nothing.

There is no numbness, no fear, and no imaginary hesitation.

During the past journey, Merlin had already told her in detail about her responsibilities and the ending she would face in the future.

She already knew.

She was born to save the world.

The girl named Artoria was born to fulfill such a purpose, and was named "King's Vessel".

She must draw her sword.

Because this is an important node engraved in "history".

If deflected, that would trigger a clipping event that would cause the world to be destroyed in 100 years.

Therefore, her ending was actually predestined long ago.

If she picks up that sword, no matter how much she struggles, she will eventually meet a lonely and extremely tragic death.

Why did Merlin tell himself?

Why bother to tell yourself such a cruel thing?

He wouldn't be worried, wouldn't he scare himself away?

Perhaps, Arturia thought, she was like this, the one who would foolishly go to death.

Everyone is looking forward to her becoming the king.

Alvin, the only one, told her to be human.

So, she has selfishness since then, became a human being, and began to think about problems selfishly.

From now on, she has something she wants to protect.

She already knew what Alvin wanted to do, and she had already seen it.

All he said today, so much, was actually for her alone.

The senior wanted to crush her fate.

But that won't work.

No way.

Because you will die.

You will die with the ruined world, Senior Alvin

Arturia was terrified of such a thing.

Don't do this for me.

I don't deserve you to do something like this.

So let me protect you.

If you become a king yourself, the world will not be destroyed, so you can protect him.

It didn't matter that she died alone.

Because, in that case, he can live.

The girl named Arturia lightly grasped the king-choosing sword.

The hilt fits amazingly.

It seemed that his temperature still remained on it.

Something that was incomprehensible until now, churning in the body, as if about to burst from the inside, seemed to be sucked into the sword, and the body seemed to feel more and more relaxed.

Draw your sword and be someone else.

Let everything that has been feared so far become a thing of the past.

This is the ritual of killing oneself.

If you still have fear, you will not be able to protect that person as a king.

"Lily, in order to protect people's smiles, go and draw your sword."

Nightmare's gentle voice seemed to resound in her ears just like that, as if saying this could inspire her enthusiasm and dispel her fear.

But, on this point, Merlin was wrong.

Big mistake.

Even, that person was wrong.

girl actually, there is

Follow your own selfishness.

What awaits her is an inescapable ending, or the shattering of loneliness

"It's not to protect smiles, it's not to create happiness, it's not to save the world.

"Just for you, Senior Alvin.

"—I want to save you"

For this reason, it doesn't matter if she kills herself.

Because, this is the "peace of mind" she is looking for.

In this bright daylight.

Facing the long-suppressed knights, the burst of cheers was like a sea tide

——The sword was pulled out just like that.

Even if she will be alienated, feared, and even betrayed countless times in the future, her selfishness will never change.

Not to save the world.

Just to save you.

I will save you, Alvin Pendragon.

"From now on."

With an indifferent, emotionless, almost ice-cold voice.

The blond-haired girl held it up high, the handle meant to prove that she had killed herself.

"I am—King Arthur."
