Davidian's Holy Grail War

Morgan was surprised by this, as David Ann had been with her for two thousand years.

He knew exactly when Davidian was defeated and when he was full of energy, but now Davidian still had hidden power that he hadn't used?

That seems a bit unlikely, doesn't it? Morgan knows very well what kind of power he possesses: two holy swords, the Legion of Miracles—each one an unimaginable treasure.

But all of this was within Morgan's calculations. What other special skills did he have that even he himself was unaware of?

But she couldn't be bothered to think about it anymore. Morgan simply got out of bed, walked behind David, hugged him, and said:

"Well, I didn't expect you to be hiding something from me. Wouldn't this count as a lord hoarding swords? That's a capital offense punishable by death by the king!"

Davidian simply laughed off her words and didn't take them to heart. His connection with that person was a chance occurrence that happened 1500 years ago.

But unless it's a real crisis, he really doesn't have the nerve to ask that person for help, so he'll just leave it at that.

"Speaking of which, weren't you being a bit too rude to them? We could have talked things out peacefully, couldn't we? Ritsuka and Castor both think your words are downright disrespectful."

David steered the conversation back to this topic, but Morgan became even more arrogant.

"Hmph~ If we don't put some pressure on them, how will they walk the path they should take?"

If things just continue peacefully like this, how can they, as my strongest adversaries, stand before me with dignity?

If you can't defeat me, how can you prove that you are the destined one to wield this holy spear?

David was shocked by her words and couldn't help but turn around. Morgan, however, silenced him with a kiss, silencing him.

At this moment, David could taste the saltiness on his lips; it was the taste of their tears.

He understood what Morgan meant: just fight to the last moment as the Queen of Winter and the Lord of Camelot.

If those children can truly defeat them, then the gift Morgan left behind will become their reliance in their fight against the alien god.

This does not mean that Morgan has given up. If Ritsuka and the others fail, this Lostbelt will still replace Panhuman History.

But if Ritsuka and the others succeed, and they truly defeat Morgan and David, then everything Morgan left behind will be inherited by them as a legacy, whether it's the vast magical power collected over the past millennium or the twelve holy lances.

Her decision moved Davidian deeply; she was such a gentle person.

Davidian had only received a little bit of happiness from the pan-human Smogen, but here she made up for it. At this moment, Davidian's heart was filled with the queen before him.

After Morgan raised his head with satisfaction, she cupped David's face in her fair hands and gave him her command:

"No slacking off, and no holding back. This battle is a test for them, and a test for us as well."

How can we prove we're capable of moving forward if we don't give it our all? Which side's story will continue, and which will end—these are questions that only real battle can answer.

"I will fight for you to the very last moment, my queen, my lord."

Chapter 344 Welcoming Procession

After a night's rest, Ritsuka and the others arrived at the main gate of Norwich City, where Oberon once again chose to separate from them.

He explained that he had other things to do, and although Ritsuka had some doubts, she let him go.

After all, there is no reason to stop Oberon now, and his actions are all for the benefit of his own side.

A cloud of dust rose from the distance as a large number of cavalrymen arrived. Ritsuka squinted as she sized up the fierce leader at the head of the group.

The Fairy Knight Gawain, she really looks cool, and her imposing presence is top-notch. David felt that the only way to fight against something like this was to confront Gawain at noon.

The cavalry caught up with them, and Bagst promptly reined in her horse and dismounted, her first words being an apology. She and the thirty soldiers of Morse's First Guard Cavalry were ten minutes late, a breach of etiquette for their guests.

"It's alright, Gao Wenqing, it's been a long time." Ritsuka smiled, not seeming to mind her lateness. His refreshing attitude made Bagst feel like she was basking in a spring breeze.

This meeting between the two was also a pleasant one for Bagst, and the change in their positions did not bother her.

"Thank you for your understanding. We will treat you as VIPs in Camelot and ensure your safety throughout the journey. Now, please come with us."

Therefore, Bagst's attitude was much better than before, and Ritsuka responded with a smile that she was sorry to have troubled them.

But Caster remained silent, and Ritsuka sighed. It was clear that Caster and Bagst had some connection in the past; they definitely knew each other.

To prevent Caster from saying anything that might upset Bagst, Ritsuka took her hand. This touch immediately put Caster at ease; she always felt a sense of relief when held by this person…

"Please cooperate. The Child of Prophecy and the magician from another land, please ride in this carriage. The ministers over there, please follow on foot. No objections..."

As Bagst was speaking, she saw a naked man with red markings on his upper body, and she instantly became enraged.

Bagst immediately yelled at Muramasa, "You bastard! You insolent scoundrel who dared to try and take the Queen's head! How are you still alive?! Lord David's attack didn't even kill you!"

"Sorry, sorry~ That attack really hurt. I was blown up once and had to stay in the Nameless Forest for a few days. But unfortunately, after going through a series of events, I survived. Now I'm the Child of Prophecy's bodyguard~"

Everyone couldn't help but smile wryly, Muramasa's cheerful yet sharp-tongued personality was nothing like that of an old man.

Even Davidian sounds more like an older person than him when he speaks, although Davidian can be quite eccentric at times...

"Lord Gawain, is it really alright to invite this fairy to Camelot? There's no guarantee he won't try to harm the Queen again..."

The elf cavalryman beside him also turned to Bagst to ask, worried that if this matter wasn't handled properly, it could lead to trouble. While Bagst would be unharmed, the fate of his cavalry might be uncertain.

However, after thinking for a moment, Bagst simply waved her hand to indicate that there was no need to be nervous. After adjusting her mindset, she said to Muramasa:

"It's alright. If he dares to cause any more trouble, I can take him down even if Lord David doesn't intervene. Her Majesty the Queen has already granted me permission to damage the castle to a certain extent."

"Oh, that's wonderful. After all, compared to the Fairy Knight Tristan, you were indeed quite restrained in the last battle. Let's have another life-or-death battle next time, without worrying about trivial matters, a fair and square fight."

His nonchalant attitude made Bagst understand why they didn't fight again when they met for the second time. It was clear that this guy was also a carefree person, so let him be.

"Hmph, even the Child of Prophecy isn't entirely without discernment. But as for the other ministers..." Bagst glanced at Da Vinci, Habertrot, and Gareth...

Forget it, they're so weak, so incredibly weak... Whether it's their magical power or their physique, these guys seem to be completely underdeveloped.

"There's no other way. Hey, go arrange a truck for them. Let the four of them ride in one truck; that way, they'll get to Camelot faster."

Bagst's orders were carried out, and the cavalrymen nearby immediately made arrangements.

Bagst then told Ritsuka and the others about their itinerary and schedule. They would take the western road to Camelot, stay overnight in Oxford, and then bypass the Great Cavern to reach Camelot.

It will take two days in total, during which they will be through thick and thin together.

"No matter what happens, we must not turn our swords against each other. Is that acceptable, magician from another land?"

Ritsuka nodded in agreement to her request. After all, they were going to Camelot as guests, and it wouldn't look good if they started fighting halfway through.

"Very good! Let's set off then! Although it's a guard mission, no one is allowed to slack off! The expulsion of the calamity has caused the poison of Morse to spread throughout Britain! Once encountered, draw your swords immediately and annihilate them. Under no circumstances should the honored guest utter a single scream!"

The group embarked on their journey, with Ritsuka and Castor receiving special treatment by riding in a rather luxurious carriage.

Ritsuka even asked whose carriage it was, as it was so high-end and must have cost a fortune.

"It belongs to Lord David, something His Majesty specially prepared for him."

However, Lord David was always frugal and simple in his conduct, so the carriage remained abandoned.

Because of hosting everyone's trip to Camelot, Lord David entrusted this carriage to me in advance.

Ritsuka was also taken aback when she heard this. It turned out that David had arranged all of this all along.

From the very beginning, he believed that his group could definitely drive away the calamity with his help, so he handed the carriage over to Bagst early on.

"At first I also found it strange that someone would have such confidence when the calamity had not yet befallen them."

As Lord Davidian predicted, you successfully banished the calamity, protected Norwich, and even broke the prophecy of Einzel.

That's amazing! I applaud you all.

At this moment, Bagst was extremely humble and polite, a stark contrast to his aggressive attitude at the western human ranch.

Ritsuka felt that Ritsuka's attitude at this moment could make people unconsciously relax. Although she still had the feeling of being in a superior position, she was not so barbaric and fierce.

"He's practically a carbon copy of Lord David, isn't he?"

Suddenly, Castor remarked something, and Ritsuka realized what he meant. Indeed, whether in words or actions, Bagst bore many resemblances to Davidian.

"Of course, it has been more than two hundred years since I was accepted by Lord David as a fairy knight. That lord is our role model, and all knights of upright character take him as their example."

Bagst's words came from the front of the carriage, and Ritsuka realized just how much influence Davian had in this fairy kingdom.

Could it be... that he actually has more influence than Morgan?

Chapter 345 Setting Off

"Speaking of which, Ritsuka... are you ready?" Caster suddenly asked Ritsuka, who was standing next to him. Ritsuka was taken aback and then looked at Caster.

His strange expression was probably a question to Castor: "Why are you still asking this at this point?"

But since she asked, Ritsuka still said:

"I'm a little nervous, after all, I don't know what kind of person she is. Her reputation in Pan-Human History is not good, and I also know a bit about Mr. Davidian's experiences. I can only say that, in my personal opinion, she is a bad woman."

Caster could tell from Ritsuka's confident manner that his so-called nervousness was just empty words to comfort himself. The fact that Ritsuka could answer him so fluently showed that he was completely used to this kind of thing.

That makes sense, though. He's seen his fair share of things. From the Greek gods to the Russian beast emperors to the First Emperor of China—it would be strange if he were still nervous.

“But I can’t sleep at all just thinking about seeing His Majesty Morgan again… I keep doing cane-swinging drills. And you, on the other hand, don’t seem flustered at all, how annoying… My servant is actually quite a big shot, isn’t he?”

Caster's shy and flustered demeanor left Ritsuka unsure how to comfort her. At this moment, Caster seemed quite girlish, less dejected or negative than before. However, Ritsuka simply said to her:

"No, I'm just more experienced than Custer. In essence, there's no difference. I just can't really go to the front lines."

"I can only do analysis, command, and summoning Spirit Origin Shadows from the rear, so I've become adept at managing my emotions, not to mention I've seen all sorts of kings."

"Speaking of that fairy knight Gawain outside, I heard Da Vinci say that she was made Lord of Manchester after suppressing the so-called Caterpillar War (Caterpillar War). So it turns out that it wasn't just His Majesty Morgan or Lord David who banished the calamities."
