Artoria wants to read people's hearts

"You will not kill any player at this moment, even if your identity has been exposed."

"Oh?" Heathcliff gasped in surprise. Although he still hated Arturia in his heart, this did not prevent him from finding what the other party said was very interesting.

"You know it very well in your heart." Nodding his head, he said indifferently.

"To be honest, your appearance was completely unexpected to me. Coupled with the strength and style of work you have shown, while I am very curious, I also position you as an unstable factor in my heart."

Hearing these words, Artoria raised her eyes and glanced at the other party with an indifferent expression.

"It's so interesting, I can't find any data about you at all, as if you are a ghost that appeared out of thin air in this world."

Heathcliff continued to speak, the matter had come to an end, since his identity had been exposed, there was no need to conceal it.

And Arturia made him feel uncomfortable, so he also made the girl feel uncomfortable in a courteous way.

That's fair enough, isn't it?

"There is no login information, no registration information, and even your player system has some problems."

Regarding this matter, when he found out that the other party's cursor would not turn red when he was crusading against [Smiling Coffin], he had already discovered it.

"It's really interesting," he said, with a slightly malicious look on his face. "Hey, who are you anyway?"

Kayaba Akihiko did it on purpose when he said this in front of the players.

If this matter is exposed, the blond girl will also become the target of public criticism after she has retreated unscathed.

When the time comes, what should the fair, merciful, and upright blonde girl do?

People's hearts are the most unbearable thing to scrutinize. When he thinks that the other party will be criticized by the players, he is sincerely happy about it.

He turned his head, glanced slowly at the people who were stunned again because of the news, and then hooked the corners of his mouth in a good mood.

"Hey, are you kidding me?"

"Is what that guy said false?" Someone asked tremblingly, really unwilling to believe the truth of this matter.

"Could it be that the head of the Blood Knights and the Eternal Golden Knight are both enemies?!"

The two people who are considered by the players to be the saviors of this death game, both have problems, this thing is really terrible.

Finally, some people couldn't bear the continuous bad news, their eyes went dark, and they sat down on the ground with a "plop".

At this moment, despair spreads in the clearing team......

"No, everyone, don't believe what he said!"

After Asuna was shocked, a burst of anger rolled in her chest like a fireball, and rushed to the top of her head, making her face red with anger.

"Don't forget, everyone, he is Akihiko Kayaba!"

She walked to the side of the crowd, and glanced at everyone firmly with her light golden eyes, "That guy definitely has no good intentions in saying such things. He definitely wants to drive us apart and make us suspect each other and fight each other!"

Is that right?

Everyone looked at her in confusion, then turned their heads to look at Akihiko Kayaba and Arturia not far away.

They really feel that there is a fog in front of them now, and they have no idea what the truth shrouded in the fog is.

"Do you think I'm joking?" Kayaba Akihiko saw what Asuna did, and he didn't stop him, just sneered slightly.

"I don't bother to lie to you in this regard, what is the truth, can't you just ask the person involved?"

"Artoria Pendragon, Miss Savior of us all." He turned his head, looked at the blonde girl with a half-smile, his voice was a little hoarse and low, "Hey, do you think that's the case?"

What he said was so sure, and he looked like he was in control, just by looking at it, people couldn't help but believe it first.

As a result, everyone's eyes involuntarily fell on Arturia who was silent at the side.

"........."

The blond girl lowered her eyes slightly, she just stood there quietly, as if the stone steps were wet under the mountain gate under the light rain, only she was alone and surrounded by wisps of clouds.

After a long time, she sighed softly, and then said in a soft voice.

"........Is it very important to know who I am?"

As soon as this sentence came out, even if it was a disguised acquiescence, what Akihiko Kayaba said was correct.

When Asuna heard this, her pupils shrank slightly. She was shocked at the moment, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings for a moment.

"Pendragon..."

She murmured the name of the blond girl, and her light golden eyes fell on the other party helplessly, like a lost traveler who didn't know the way forward.

Sensing the girl's gaze on her, Arturia turned her head to look into Asuna's eyes, and in an instant, her eyes met.

What did the flaxen-haired girl see in those emerald green eyes?

It was yesterday's evening, and tonight's listening to the rain, the green raindrops have all fallen on the lake in her heart, dripping out countless folds.

Those eyes seemed to be able to speak, as if telling her in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, no matter what my identity is, I will take you out of this game."

So in an instant, Asuna's heart calmed down, and her short breathing became calm again.

yes!Just like Xiao Yui, no matter what their identities are, Xiao Yui is still Xiao Yui, and Pendragon is still Pendragon.

They are the most important existence in my heart.

Times change and the stars move, but this remains the same.

Turning around, Artoria once again set her eyes on Kayaba Akihiko who was watching the joke.

After looking at the other party inexplicably for two seconds, she suddenly chuckled.

"You want to know who I am?" She said coldly and pleasantly, "Of course, since you want to know, then I'll tell you."

"Listen well." She held the long sword in her hand, and then gently lowered it to the ground, with the tip of the sword touching the ground, "Please remember it firmly, because this will be the name of the person who took your life."

The blond girl looked at him with cold eyes, her temperament was as cold as a sword, and the biting chill lingered around her side.

"I am Lord of Britain, and my name is Arthur Pendragon."

Arthur, Britannia..........

What does the combination of these two words conjure up?

No matter how I think about it, I can only think of that one.

Eternal righteousness, the existence in myths and legends, the hero who holds the sword of vowed victory, is passed down by the world and praised by the people.

Its respect and taboo are: King Arthur!

But........ is this possible?

In a virtual game world, a girl suddenly popped up and said that she was King Arthur. This kind of thing is like the funniest joke in the entire century, so funny to death.

"........."

After a moment of silence, Kayaba Akihiko suddenly put his hands on his forehead and shook his head, then sneered.

"Oh, really, I thought you were going to say something, but I have to say, you're a terrible joke teller."

"Oh, King Arthur, who would believe you when you say that." He inserted his hands into his hair and pulled it back, looking at the blond girl with inexplicable sympathy in his eyes, "After all, are you out of your mind?"

Chapter 38 Light is converging, wind is gathering and dispersing (two in one)

"Are you out of your mind?"

This sentence is not very lethal, but it is extremely insulting.

In fact, not only Kayaba Akihiko didn't believe Artoria's words, everyone present, including Asuna and Kirito, the first reaction when they heard that sentence was to subconsciously make a face of black question marks .

King Arthur?

How can it be?

Pendragon can really joke...  

After the scene fell into an eerie tranquility, Artoria looked at the embarrassing expressions on everyone's faces, and finally let out a sigh from the corner of her mouth helplessly.

Really, no one believes the truth these days.

But it can't be blamed for others not believing her words, Arturia looked down at herself, and couldn't help but smile wryly in her heart.

Ordinary knight armor is not a rare piece of equipment. Although the long sword in his hand is sharp, that's all. …

The golden girl lowered her eyes and thought about it seriously, then nodded solemnly.

Sure enough, from the perspective of others, what I said just now really looks like a sick mind.

"I'm not joking, and there's no need to make such a joke." Artoria's eyes are clear and her temperament is cold. Even if a person like this is just standing there, just looking at his appearance will make people subconsciously believe the last three point.

"You ask, I'll answer, that's all." Her expression was indifferent, and she didn't care about Heathcliff's questioning of her in her heart, "I have already revealed my identity, as for whether you believe it or not, that is up to you." Something happened."

Although she said this to Heathcliff, in the final analysis, she actually said it to all the players present.

"And compared to pursuing this kind of thing—" Artoria's eyes were as quiet as a lake, without waves, "—breaking your tortoise shell is the most important thing now, isn't it?"

As soon as the words fell, accompanied by the sound of the slight collision of the armor, her right leg suddenly jumped into the air, and with the help of gravity, the sharp blade fell from the sky.

In an instant, the silver sword light carried a huge wind pressure and smashed on Kayaba Akihiko's body without leaving any room.

"BOOM~~!!"

Accompanied by a huge roar, the ground centered on the two of them cracked layer by layer, forming a circular pothole with a diameter of two meters.

The broken stones caused by the broken floor were temporarily floating in the air due to the vibration, and then fell suddenly due to gravity. The stones fell to the ground and made a "cracking" sound. Every sound seemed to hit the hearts of the players in the strategy group.

Just like the cracks on the ground, they felt that their three views were also cracked together.

Kayaba Akihiko stood on the spot expressionlessly, his body still maintained his previous movements, and against the contrast of these two, he somehow gave off an air of a big boss.

But this is only on the surface. My family knows about my own affairs. The reason why he behaved like this is because he didn't react at all.

In the blink of an eye, the long sword was in front of him, and his speed was so fast that he could not even fight back. Before his expression changed, he only heard a loud bang in his ears, and the matter was over.

Seeing that another blow failed, Artoria couldn't help frowning, she took a step back, and her expression gradually became serious.

Counting the previous sword strike, she actually didn't hold back anything these two times.

Such force was like a big truck hitting the wall with a bang, but even so, she still didn't break through the opponent's defense.

...... Sure enough, this matter is not so easy.

Sighing lightly, Artoria raised her long sword again, aiming the sharp point at Akihiko Kayaba.

It's man-made!She didn't believe that she couldn't break the opponent's tortoise shell! !

A cold light flashed in her eyes, she let out a soft drink, burst out with all her strength again, and slashed fiercely at the man who stood still.

The blond girl swung her sword extremely fast, and each sword could split the ground.

Human eyes can't keep up with her speed at all, except for the dazzling silver sword light and the continuous roar, I can't hear or see anything else.

But even so, everyone kept their eyes wide open, looking at the center of the battle without blinking, for fear that if they missed a little bit, they would not be able to keep up with the current situation.

The long sword in Artoria's hand is not a magical blade. There are not many swords in the game that can withstand such a high-intensity battle.

After hitting the barrier of the system countless times, the sword finally shattered instantly, turning into golden dust.

Seeing this scene, Artoria's exquisite brows could not help but frown.

Because of the dissipation of the weapons, the non-stop offensive that had been like a storm before finally calmed down at this moment.

She took a deep breath and leaped back, and immediately landed five meters away from Akihiko Kayaba.

Standing in the distance and clicking on the system, she took out another long sword from her storage bar, held it in her hand, and made an attacking posture again.

But this time, Artoria didn't rush forward rashly. After all, maintaining a high-intensity output is a very tiring thing, plus...

He lowered his head and glanced at his trembling hands, his emerald green eyes were full of darkness.

The effect of force is reciprocal, every blow of her is going all out, and the reaction force given to her by chopping on the barrier cannot be underestimated, the accumulation of small things adds up, and now she already feels that her hands are a little hard to hold Tighten the sword.

This is not going to work, I have to think of other ways to break this stalemate.

Pressing her lips tightly, she forcibly controlled her trembling hands, trying to make herself appear as usual in front of everyone.

Because the girl stopped attacking, Kayaba Akihiko finally had a chance to breathe.

As the creator of this game world, even though he was not injured at all, he was completely unable to fight back when he was pressed and beaten. Such aggrieved things made him feel very angry.

The counterattack is now!

He blushed, and stared angrily at the blond girl in front of him, like a beast that was in a hurry, or like a landmine that was about to explode as soon as the fuse was pulled.
