Type-Moon, joins the Lion King at the beginning

Chapter 145 The time has come to say goodbye

"Mr. Lee-ye--?"

Mashu, who was turning into starlight and disappearing, said subconsciously, looking at the person who was approaching in astonishment, with confusion and puzzlement in her eyes.

The person shouting was none other than Li Ye, who was knocked away by the Lion King at the beginning and lost his voice. No one expected that he would stand up again at this time.

But Mashu couldn't understand why Li Ye said such words at this time?
Isn’t it all over already?

Unlike Mashu who knew nothing, Da Vinci and Fujimaru Ritsuka both had stern expressions. They knew very well what kind of desperate situation Li Ye was facing at this moment.

“As expected, there is no—”

Da Vinci was even more keen to capture the key information. At this time, there was no light spot similar to theirs on Li Ye's body, which meant that he would not be [sent back to the original place]

And Leonardo da Vinci soon understood why Li Ye was not forcibly repatriated. Ritsuka Fujimaru, Mashu and Leonardo da Vinci himself came from Chaldea outside of time, and the world outside of this had been destroyed.

The human burning carried out by Solomon destroyed the entire human history. If Li Ye was from between 2017 and 2016, then his origin was also burned.

There is no doubt that Li Ye has lost his origin at this time, but is stuck in the Middle East of the 13th century like a foreign object. The Lion King put down the Holy Spear, causing the singularity to disappear, and finally the place for Li Ye to stay will also disappear.

As the restoration progressed, no one knew what would happen to Li Ye.

With a painful look on his face, Li Ye walked straight past Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka. At this time, Li Ye had no intention of paying attention to Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others. His body and consciousness were screaming and wailing.

The unspeakable feeling of separation made Li Ye feel boundless pain and sorrow. As the Lion King put down the Holy Spear, Li Ye was also invaded by this power that came from nowhere.

The perception of the body was gradually disappearing, and consciousness was about to become confused. The memories of the past ten years flashed through Li Ye's mind.

Reject\hate\dislike\die die die die!!
As if being rejected by the whole world, Li Ye could feel the emotions coming from all directions.

That was the voice from Li Ye himself.

If the progress of the world will leave behind anything, it is the accumulation of time and the embodiment of history.

What has been accumulated over countless millennia is [Humanity], which is the path the world should have taken.

And on this road, there is no place for Li Ye.

Until the singularity repair began, even Li Ye himself was rejecting himself.

"I don't admit it—"

Li Ye gritted his teeth and walked step by step towards the king who had regained the hearts of the people and made Li Ye feel unfamiliar.

at this time.

"Eh? Is Li Ye still ahead of you? Why can't I see anything here?"

Roman's puzzled words broke the final peace.

Hearing this, Mashu immediately showed a panicked look and asked hurriedly: "Doctor, did you see it wrong? Mr. Li Ye - Li Ye is right in front of us!"

In Mashu's eyes, that figure was Li Ye, but why did the power around Li Ye seem so familiar?
Ritsuka Fujimaru and Da Vinci both fell silent because of Roman's unintentional words.

"Mashu, Mr. Liye is fine."

Seeing Mashu getting impatient, Fujimaru Ritsuka was about to speak to comfort her, but Mashu almost instinctively retorted: "How can it be okay, Senior!!!"
Li Ye... Li Ye is disappearing and being rejected by others!"

At this time, Mashu finally recognized the familiar power beside Liye. It was the same power as Galahad's Noble Phantasm, Lord Camelot, the "Distant Ideal City".

Mashu couldn't understand why Liye was enveloped by this power, but she had the answer in her heart -

【Reject foreign matter】

It is definitely not an alien object that should exist in human nature. At present, he has not yet understood his own significance and the way to coexist with human nature.

Things that have been discarded and cut off cannot be turned back.

Even though she had the answer in her heart, Mashu still didn't understand. She couldn't understand it at all!
“What—” As soon as Mash said this, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Da Vinci’s expressions changed, and Roman, who was far away in Chaldea, also changed his expression slightly.

He thought the matter was over, but he didn't expect that there was a bigger one waiting for him.

Ritsuka Fujimaru, who still couldn't understand what Mashu said, was just surprised that Mashu realized Li Ye's current desperate situation, while Da Vinci understood very well what Mashu was saying.

But then——

Da Vinci immediately looked at the figure that had walked in front of the Lion King and opened his mouth to speak.

After bidding farewell to King Arthur's last knight, Altria Pendragon, who still called herself the Lion King, quietly watched as the Lion King's only knight arrived in front of her again.

"It's not over. It won't end, my king—"

The distance was only an arm's length away, and the pain on Li Ye's face suddenly disappeared.

As if at last, Li Ye suppressed all the discomfort and pain, and spoke to the king in his final gesture.

"Li Yeqing——"

At this moment, Altria didn't know what to say. Only she knew everything that happened to Li Ye, whether it was the changes induced by the dragon blood or the erosion brought by the soul intelligence.

The pure white soul that was reborn after death has gradually revealed its true appearance during the past six months.

It is precisely because of this that Artoria seems to be able to see what Li Ye's future will be like after today.

The sin that was different from Bedivere's was a long journey that could not be fully explained even in fifteen hundred years.

It was a curse that Altria herself cast on Liye.

It is a curse and also a blessing.

Li Ye, who had no idea what Altria was thinking at the moment, took a deep breath and laughed from the bottom of his heart: "Please allow me to thank you--"

There was no time for Li Ye to have a heart-to-heart talk with Altria. Every time Li Ye opened his mouth, he felt intense disgust and pain, which was far beyond anything he had experienced before, even death could not compare to it.

It was a denial and resistance to his own existence, constantly colliding with Li Ye's strong desire to survive. The two contradictory things kept pulling at each other, causing Li Ye to feel as if his soul was being torn apart.

But Li Ye still chose to communicate with the Lion King. At the very end, he had to make everything clear.

It will be hard to see you again in the future, so please don’t leave any regrets——

"It was you who gave me a place to stay, it was you who saved my life, it was you who pointed out the direction for my future...

I sincerely thank you, my king, the Lion King Altria."

Li Ye's face was pale and he was sweating profusely. His broken body was also shaking constantly, but he still insisted on not falling down or disappearing.

"I am sorry for you, Li Yeqing——"

Altria slowly walked in front of Li Ye, and the last arm's length of distance completely disappeared.

Raising her hand to wipe the cold sweat off Li Ye's face, Altria looked gentle with a faint smile on her face: "I have seen everything you have done, be proud, Li Yeqing.

You are the only knight of the Lion King. You can continue to hold your head high as a Knight of the Round Table and move forward into the future."

Unlike Gawain and other dead Knights of the Round Table, in Altria's opinion, Liye should move towards the future like foreign Masters such as Fujimaru Ritsuka.

But that future——

Snapped.

The charred hand grasped the Lion King's jade hand that was caressing Li Ye's cheek. It was Li Ye who raised his hand and held the Lion King's hand.

Li Ye's smile remained the same, even more intense: "It's time to say goodbye. My king, please hand over the Holy Spear to me."
