Artoria wants to read people's hearts

Follow honor, stick to morality and never waver

king arthur brings the tragic night to an end

For the highest great cause, we forge ahead

The suffering finally came to an end

A new chapter of the era has begun......]

Arturia's prestige has steadily increased step by step, and the emperor's power is unrivaled in the country.

Everything in Britain is booming, and the life of the people is even more prosperous.

God bless Great Britain, everyone firmly believes that the holy King Arthur will lead them to prosperity and prosperity.

------------

Camelot, the capital of Britain.

Since the early morning, more and more people set out from their homes to the main street of the city.

Each of them had joy on their faces, and the smiles that rose from the corners of their mouths were extraordinarily flamboyant and brilliant.

Gradually, more and more people gathered, shoulder to shoulder and kept pouring in from everywhere.

The edge of the flower bed near the main city road was full of people, and there were also people standing around the fountain.

Those who came late and didn't get a good seat even climbed directly to the roof, just to be able to see what was going to happen next.

Today is a special day.

The great King Arthur finally defeated their enemies, the Saxons, and the people of Britain will no longer be disturbed by foreign enemies.

Praise be to my noble and just king, the stalwart guardian of benevolence and chivalry.

And today is the day when their Wang Banshi returns to court.

King Arthur will lead his army from the city gate all the way to the palace, showing the splendor and glory of Britain to his people.

Sudden.

"Boom!" sounded.

The people who were still bustling with each other slowly stopped their voices.

They looked up to the sky, only to see colorful flowers appearing in the sky.

It was the handwriting of the magician Merlin, a magic firework specially prepared by him to welcome the return of King Arthur.

As the fireworks exploded in the sky, a sound of horns also came from the city gate in response to the occasion.

People turned their heads happily, staring at the direction of the city gate with longing eyes.

In an instant, the city gate opened wide.

The sound of trampling horseshoes came eloquently, and the sound of neat strokes sounded so heart-shattering.

It's getting closer, closer.

When people came back to their senses, a young man in silver-white armor appeared in the perspective.

The young man had blond hair that was as bright as radiance, and green eyes that were as clear as lake water. Although his face was a little immature, it was exceptionally delicate and handsome.

Wearing a crown on his head, carrying a golden holy sword at his waist, and wearing a gorgeous blue cape, the king looks heroic against the backdrop of gold and blue.

"My king!"

As the crowd suddenly heard an excited cry, it was like throwing a stone into a calm lake, and the people on the street immediately began to boil.

They raised their hands high and cheered loudly the name of the king.

"My king!"

"Long live my king!!"

Protect the weak and defeat the stubborn enemy.

Right in front of the army, the one who rode slowly forward on horseback was the proud king of Britain.

Arturia waved her hand and smiled at the excited citizens. The sun shone on her body and covered her with a layer of sacred color.

However.....

In the alley where the sun does not shine, a small figure hides in it, under the hood that covers the face, a pair of emerald green eyes that are the same as Artoria's are full of admiration and respect.

"time to go."

The blond witch in a black robe bent down and pressed the child's shoulder, leading her to turn and leave.

Before leaving at the end, the young child couldn't help but look back, and the reflection in the green eyes was the dazzling King Arthur in the sunshine.

Two figures, one big and one small, just disappeared into the alley without making a sound.

Since then, no one has been able to know what happened in that darkness, and no one knows who has been there.

----------------

After the lively parade ended, Arturia walked straight into the palace.

She took off the cloak behind her and handed it to Hou's attendant, then reached out and pushed open the door of the palace in front of her.

At this time, in the main hall, her courtiers were waiting quietly there.

"My king."

Seeing Arturia enter the palace, everyone present immediately saluted and lowered their eyebrows to welcome the arrival of the king.

She sat down on her throne without haste, lowered her eyes and looked down at everyone present.

"Get up." The majestic and deep voice resounded throughout the hall.

"During the time I was fighting abroad, I heard some remarks about me in China." Artoria asked with a blank expression.

"I'm a little curious. I wonder if everyone present can tell me something about it?"

"Ah this..."

The ministers present looked at each other, and everyone looked a little worried. They really didn't know what the king who asked this sentence was thinking.

After a long silence, it was finally Pavashir (the second seat of the future Knights of the Round Table) who stood up against the pressure.

He gave a knight's salute, and respectfully replied to Arturia who was on the throne.

"Now Britain has regained its glory under the leadership of Your Majesty, and it can even be said to be better than before. The country is now peaceful and prosperous, so..."

'so? '

Arturia couldn't help but shudder when she heard this.

"...That's why the citizens began to care about your Majesty's lifelong affairs. After all, it's time for the king to get married."

"and...."

Artoria frowned, and her eyes signaled Pavashir to continue talking.

"...and it is indeed time for Britain to have a queen."

After finishing speaking, against the cold eyes of King Arthur and the eyes of the heroic colleagues around him, Pavahir, who was sweating profusely, hurriedly withdrew from the team.

He swore that killing an enemy on the battlefield was not as terrible as telling King Arthur about such a thing.

No matter in which era, marriage urging is inevitable.

King Arthur, you'd better accept your fate obediently.

Chapter 19 Evasion is useless

"...all back down."

Wordlessly dismissed the crowd, and Artoria could no longer hold back her bitter face.

What kind of thing is this? If I knew it was like this, I wouldn't ask.

"Pfft~."

Perhaps it was because her complexion was so wonderful, the flower magician who had been hiding her figure finally couldn't hold back her laughter.

"Merlin!"

"Artoria looked in surprise at the white-haired young man who appeared in the corner of the hall and no longer hid herself.

"When were you there?"

"It's been there from the beginning." With an unstoppable smile on the corner of Merlin's mouth, he replied gloatingly, "My dear disciple, I have to say that your expression is really extremely funny."

The Magician of Flowers, who is not a big deal to watch the excitement, paced from the corner to Arturia. It is no exaggeration to say that he smiled like a blooming dandelion on the side of the road.

The teasing in his eyes was not concealed in the slightest.

"...Merlin, it's too obvious that you're gloating."

Artoria pursed her lips and felt a little speechless, her helpless eyes fell on the flower magician who had already walked in front of her.

She tilted her head, calmly trying to change the somewhat embarrassing topic just now.

"The fireworks in the parade today are very beautiful. I didn't expect that kind of magic to exist. Sure enough, magic is really amazing."

"That magic trick has been studied for a long time before I succeeded. It's really great that you like it."

The white-haired young man laughed softly, with a proud attitude in his expression.

Seeing Merlin being distracted by her, Artoria couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

'Very well, it seems that we can finally end that topic. '

However, is it as simple as she wants?

Too naive, you have to know that life is unsatisfactory out of ten.

Just when Arturia was thankful for her wit, Merlin changed his words and turned back to the original words again.

"If you like, I can perform it again at your wedding."

"...!" Arturia was stunned by this magical stroke.

She turned her head to look at the Magician of Flowers with a happy smile on her face at this time, that smile made her feel as if there was a breath in her chest at the moment, which was extremely uncomfortable.

-------what.

Why did I feel that Merlin would do what I wanted?

That's Merlin, whose inner essence is just a crumb!

"Wedding or something..., it's simply impossible."

Artoria raised her hand to her forehead, and said with a look of lovelessness: "You know it, and that is the fact that I am a woman."

Yes, that's exactly why Arturia doesn't want to continue talking about this.

If her gender is still the same as that of her previous life, then she will definitely be happy to let Britain have a queen, but the current situation is obviously not so easy to solve...

"Marriage is a matter between two people, even if I don't care about being married to a woman, but..."

She paused for a moment, a trace of confusion and anxiety appeared on her delicate face.

"But what will the woman who made the marriage contract with me think? You must know that I can't give her the happiness she deserves. This is simply equivalent to a fraudulent marriage."

Having said this, Artoria lowered her head, and the originally bright emerald green eyes also became hazy.

The husband who is full of joy is married to a woman like her, that scene is really too sad,

She will destroy the other person's life, and Arturia knows this very well.

Perhaps because the disciple in front of her rarely showed her fragile side, the flower magician who was still smiling at first gradually restrained her smile.

"But it's necessary, it doesn't matter what you want."

Merlin slowly and firmly put the facts before Artoria's eyes.

"From ancient times to the present, politics has never been a purely political issue. It has always been involved in various aspects, and marriage is just a political means."

Merlin cruelly ignored Artoria's pleading gaze, and he continued word by word: "King Arthur needs a queen, and Britain also needs a queen."

"After three years of development, Britain has gradually become more formal, but the time is still too short."
