I must draw my sword immediately!

Chapter 87 The Fourth Counterfeit

"Tied!"

Gave an order,
Several cavalrymen dressed in black plate armor immediately dismounted, pulled long chains from their horses, and pressed towards Suya.

Seeing this, Suya involuntarily took a step back and placed her hand on the hilt of her sword.

Seeing his action
Lucan, Meli, and the others were all startled, but before they could stop Sua,

The Black Knight, his face dark, spoke first in a deep voice:

"To defy the kingdom's decree is an even greater crime!"

"I advise you not to make a mistake."

Suya's expression hardened, but she showed no intention of taking her hand off the sword hilt.
He glanced around at the expressions on the faces of the few "one of his own" around him, none of them seemed to have any intention of stopping the group of knights from tying him up.

His heart skipped a beat.
I thought to myself, "So it really is that time? Are these cheap teammates about to be sold off?"

And this British officer, are you blind? I'm a law-abiding citizen. I just saved 20,000 Britons. You're not even going to give me a banner or some pounds as a token of appreciation, and now you want to kidnap me?
Seeing several black-armored knights approaching, Suya certainly wasn't going to entrust her life to them.

He immediately tried to draw his sword and charged back towards the crowd behind him, hoping to use the crowd to his advantage to avoid the cavalry and then steal a horse to escape.

however,
The Black Knight let out a heavy breath, and impatiently drew a red chain from his waist and swung it!
The next moment,
These dark red chains seemed to possess a spirit, splitting into three bundles in mid-air and rapidly intertwining with Suya!

Suya immediately felt immense pressure emanating from this black knight.

He is a half-hero.

Even a faint instinct rising within him told him that this person was hiding something!

Suya immediately activated the Crimson Dragon's Eye and unleashed her Crest Combat Technique, instantly analyzing 37 different sword techniques that could counter this attack.
However, before he could even wonder why his opponent's attacks had so many openings, he was left wondering why.

at this time,

A sharp pain suddenly shot through the back of my head.

Suya turned her head and saw Dagonet's honest and slightly apologetic face suddenly appear behind her.

His vision went black instantly.

Dagonet breathed a sigh of relief and personally took the chains from the black-armored knight to bind the unconscious Suya in a way that wouldn't hurt him.

"Fortunately, it didn't make our king draw his sword."

Lucan and Merry, standing nearby, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Meryl then looked at the Black Knight and said, "Sir Agraven, I am acquainted with Princess Morgan le Fay. Please inform her upon your return to the Silver Crown Court that—"

“I have what she wants.”

Upon hearing this, the Black Knight Agravan's expression froze for a moment, and he glanced at Meryl with a slightly surprised look.
He then nodded indifferently.

When I opened my eyes again,
Sua found herself inside an iron prison van.

His armor had been removed, leaving only a white undershirt. His upper body was bound together with iron chains like a rice dumpling, but strangely, although the chains looked very tight, it seemed that Suya could break free immediately with just a little effort.

The pack animals pulled the prison cart along the loose, dilapidated dirt road, with a continuous military camp all around and a white chalk wall that looked like a crawling dragon in the distance.

Beside the prison cart, there was only one horseman, the same black knight he had met at the beginning.

At that moment, shadows fell, and the prison cart passed through a doorway and stopped in front of a house filled with torture instruments.

"Come down."

The black knight raised his hand and opened the cell door, speaking indifferently.

"Keep the chains on your body; you will have to undergo interrogation by the Cross Knights later."

Suya was a little confused, but instinctively he sensed that the other party didn't seem to have any ill intentions.

Moreover, there seemed to be a strange sense of familiarity between himself and this knight.
This sense of familiarity made Suya feel awkward.
Even though you don't know the other person, it seems like they do. What would happen if you revealed that you are no longer the stand-in for King Arthur?
Confused and cautious, Suya chose to remain silent.

At this moment, the Black Knight took the initiative to speak to him and utter a name:
“Agravivan”.

Suya was taken aback: "Huh?"

"my name."

"Of course, that's not important. The main thing is you—"

Agraven turned his head, calmly looked at Suya, and said indifferently:
"You seem to have forgotten a lot of things."

Suya thought to herself, "Of course! I fucking remember lying on the sofa like Peppa Pig, and in the blink of an eye, I was born."

It's not a matter of forgetting some memories, it's that this thing never existed in the first place!
Thinking of this, Suya tentatively asked, "Then what should I remember?"

Agravan nodded. "Thank goodness you're not stupid." "You just need to remember that you are now Sua, Sir Hector's adopted son."

Suya frowned and asked, "What about Arthur?"

“There is no such person,” Agraven emphasized again.
"This person never existed in this world before, and he will never exist again."

Suya let out a long breath. After learning this information and understanding the name of the person in front of her, she could roughly guess what kind of script she had been given.

The fact that the original owner killed Arthur does not seem to be accidental, but rather that someone was behind it.

The person who instructed the original body must be one of those who knew Arthur Pendragon's true identity and attempted to kill Arthur Pendragon to achieve some purpose.

Agguwen,

Historically, this person was Morgan le Fay, or the son of Queen Morgoth, the secretary of the Knights of the Round Table, and King Arthur's most important right-hand man in ruling the kingdom. In terms of governing the kingdom, his importance even surpassed that of Merlin.

I just don't know which version of Agravić this is.

Thinking of this, Su Yadan tentatively asked:
"So that means we're on the same side? Whom should we pledge our allegiance to?"

Agravivan shook his head, not telling Suya the answer.
“You are about to be interrogated by the Knights of the Cross, and I cannot tell you. Moreover, you had better not make any wild guesses.”

"The Cross-shaped Forbidden Riders?"

Hearing the contents of the other person's words, and hearing that term again, which Lucan regarded as a monstrous threat,
Suya was puzzled and looked at Agguiwen, hoping to get an answer from him.

Agguivin simply commented:

"A bunch of fakes."

He paused, then gave a self-deprecating laugh.
"Of course, so are we."

“You are the false son of Sir Hector, while I am not even qualified to be called a ‘human being’.”

Upon hearing this, Su Ya raised his head in shock and looked at the fourth fake he had encountered.

I thought to myself, Britain is really doomed!
The one who replaced King Arthur was fake, Merlin's supposed replacement, Merry, was fake, King Arthur's confidant, Lucan, was fake, and now, even Agrave, King Arthur's trusted Knight of the Round Table, has claimed to be a fake.

However, Suya couldn't help but wonder, were these people really fake?
Everything seems to be related to the Seven Kings' Feast that happened fifteen years ago. So, is it possible that these people are not fakes, but their growth paths have been changed due to the influence of the world line shift?
Suya then looked up and asked curiously, "Agraven, why did you say that?"

Agguwen did not answer Suya's question either.

It seems that he is naturally taciturn, so it's quite unprecedented that he can talk so much with Suya at this moment.

He merely turned his head slightly to look towards the door.

at this time,

Thump! Thump! ~
Thump! Thump! ~
A series of heavy footsteps sounded outside the door.

Seeing the group of knights about to enter the interrogation cell, Agravan gave Sua a final, somber reminder:
"listen--"

"In the capital, the more you know, the faster you'll die!"

"Just stay the way you are now. If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, come to 13 Knight Street, Fourth Ring Road on Saturdays or Sundays and come through the back door."

"The rest of the time, we don't know each other."

Suya's expression froze, her head full of doubt, as she turned to look at the group of knights who walked in from outside.

The knights were dressed in heavy armor with a red and white background and a white cross pattern in the center of their chests. They carried broadswords as large as doors and wore white helmets with iron crosses.

They were like paladins who had stepped out of mythology, each of them exuding the aura of a master.

The leading knight was not wearing a helmet, revealing a solemn, upright, and meticulous square face.

However, at this time,
Upon seeing Suya bound like a dumpling next to Agguiwen...

A hint of fawning smile appeared on his angular, serious face.
"You are the heroic knight Suya who led 300,000 defeated soldiers to break through the Conqueror King's encirclement, right?"

"don’t worry,"

"We are just going through the motions. The kingdom’s higher authorities will issue your commendation soon. Furthermore, the Archbishop of Canterbury and Duke Edward II both value you highly and will likely summon you shortly."

Upon hearing this, Suya couldn't help but be taken aback: "Huh?"

"No, when did I lead 300,000 defeated troops to break through the encirclement?"

The knight, whose face was solemn yet wore a fawning smile, seemed deaf, merely bowing his head and chuckling obsequiously, before immediately shouting at the knight beside him:
"What are you all standing there for? Quickly untie this knight!"

"Lord Suya, please follow me this way. We have prepared afternoon tea and snacks for you!"
