Davidian's Holy Grail War
Page 232
When asked this, Davidian was unsure whether to answer. However, he ultimately sighed and chose to give a direct response.
"Since you call me Lord, I have no reason not to answer this question."
Fujimaru Ritsuka, this Lostbelt is a filthy Britain, it is not worth protecting, nor is it worth Morgan's efforts over the past two thousand years.
"It should have ended long ago. As the lord, how could I allow the Queen to set foot on this land and defile her hands?"
His answer was so simple, and Ritsuka understood many things. Indeed, Britain itself had many problems, but the fairies had even bigger ones.
No wonder Davidian was in such pain in front of the King. It was all Davidian's own fault; she shouldn't have let the King defile her here.
"As expected, the problem lies with the first six, right?" Ritsuka suddenly asked this question, and Davidian showed a surprised expression. Had he really discovered this much?
“You’re really smart, kid. You deserve praise. So, you should have guessed what those six didn’t accomplish, right?” David asked back. Upon hearing his question, Ritsuka pointed to the holy sword at his waist.
Seeing the kid's actions, even though he was in a bad mood, David couldn't help but laugh. If he weren't currently holding Bavanshi, he would have even wanted to reach out and give the kid a good ruffled scrape on the head. Quite clever, isn't he?
“Bagust and Melyuchina are the reasons they bestowed the name, but why is Lord David able to possess it? Even King Arthur, when he came here, could not become a swordsman and could only arrive as a spearman.”
This is one of the biggest questions Ritsuka still has; what he is asking now is about the true nature of Davidan.
Davidian responded with a subtle smile, which he couldn't say, but he simply wanted Ritsuka to remember that he was different from the other Holy Sword Wielders.
"Alright, I can't waste any more time talking to you kids. The most important thing is to save her. I need to get Bawanshi back right away. There's no time to waste here."
With that, David turned to step into the dark space. He had to get back to his dorm immediately so Morgan could come up with a solution. Bawanshi's situation was far beyond their expectations; Morgan's do-or-die attitude had really cost her dearly this time.
Watching David, who was about to leave, Ritsuka silently wished him well for what lay ahead, hoping he wouldn't suffer any more pain.
Chapter 420 Chase
However, before he left, Ritsuka said to him, "King Arthur has left. In order to remove the effects of the magic that Bavanshi had placed on Caster, she chose to fuse with Caster's spirit origin and take that curse with her."
Upon hearing this, David turned around with lightning speed and stared intently at Custer, his murderous aura now fully exposed.
His eyes were now so fierce and terrifying that Ritsuka had never seen Davidan look like this before. In Ritsuka's mind, he was usually a nice guy.
If Castor had been stared at like that before, he probably would have been scared and backed away, or said something strange and irrelevant to ease the atmosphere.
But now she bravely glared back, their gazes locked in a fierce confrontation. This time, Davidian saw a familiar figure in her—yes, it was her from the Lostbelt.
In the end, it was David who first withdrew his murderous aura and calmed down. After a moment of thought, he showed a relieved expression and said:
"I was wondering why there was that familiar feeling all along... So that's it, you inherited her dragon blood. Your gaze just now was quite good. Keep it up, don't disgrace everything that person has to offer, or I'll kill you with my own hands."
Caster nodded to him and said that she would never let that person down. She had entrusted everything to her, and she would hold her head high and move forward into the future.
David nodded slightly to acknowledge her determination, then stepped into the dark space. He simply couldn't afford to waste any more time here; he had to find Morgan immediately.
After Davidian left, the entrance to the dark space slowly closed in front of Ritsuka and the others. Only after he was gone did Castor breathe a sigh of relief and pat his chest.
"How terrifying~ David's murderous aura is like a mountain pressing down on me. I have never felt such an aura from anyone in the Fairy Kingdom."
Hearing Castor's words, Ritsuka could only manage a wry smile. The fact that David hadn't lashed out and killed anyone over such a trivial matter was only because Bavanshi's situation was too urgent for him to waste time. Otherwise, whether things would have ended so peacefully was questionable…
“Let’s go back. Percival and the others are still waiting for us to return unharmed. We need to tell them that things are settled here, and now it’s time to ring the fifth bell.”
"Okay, let's go back!"
The two returned to Lentinium hand in hand, while Morgan had already seen Bavanshi, whose soul was beginning to decay.
This time, her calm poker face turned hysterical, and the wails that came from her mouth were so horrible that even Davidian found them unbearable to watch.
"Bawanshi! Why, why have you become like this again! You've been used again, and fallen to such a miserable state! Is there no way you can find happiness in the end?!"
She held Bawanshi in her arms, tearfully recounting Bawanshi's current plight. Bawanshi's inability to find happiness... she didn't want that!
"Go! Go and twist Belial's head off and bring it to me! I don't care if he was the beginning of everything, or if I am who I am today because of him, go now! Davidian! My lord! Go and bring his head to me!"
Davidian sighed and then walked into the dark space. "Let Morgan and Bavanshi be alone here for a while; this time things have really gotten out of hand."
When Davidian found Belial, he was underground in New Darlington. From Davidian's perspective, Belial was forcibly infecting humans with Morse's poison, which was perhaps what he was doing to create the so-called Morse people.
“Your tastes are truly disgusting; even I find them repulsive,” Davidian said, his voice causing Belial to turn his head. His expression remained as vile as ever, as if he genuinely looked down on everyone.
"Oh my, my lord, you've actually come to my remote little place. This is completely outside my plans." Even at this point, he still couldn't change his sarcastic tone, and this time Davidian no longer held back.
He gripped his sword and slowly walked towards Belial, saying as he went, "I spared your life before because of Morgan's request. Now that you've harmed Bavanshi like this, then... take your life. Morgan wants to see your head."
"Haha~ An angry lord is truly terrifying, but please forgive me for being unable to comply. I have other things to do and cannot die here like this."
After saying that, Belial pulled the chains hanging beside him, and the ceiling suddenly opened. A large number of humans infected with the Morse poison fell directly from above and began to walk slowly toward Davidian.
Looking at David, who was surrounded by the Morse, Belial spoke leisurely:
"Even a paladin like Davidian Slererick would have a hard time dealing with this quantity and this level of Morse poison. Alright, I have to go now. After all, my beloved girl is waiting for me, and I can't waste time here."
Having said that, he turned around to leave. But the next moment, a burst of flames shot into the sky behind him.
The intense light and heat compelled him to turn around. This time, he saw it—the phoenix form of David, a sight known only to a select few in the fairy kingdom. After all, most fairies or humans who had seen this form… were already dead.
"Are you kidding me? Could there be such exaggerated power? Impossible! If you killed the Morse, then Morse's curse would transfer to the killer. Why are you completely unharmed!"
Belial's expression contorted into a grimace, his tone turning furious. However, Davidian merely said mockingly, "Run, run, you jackal. The phoenix is after you!"
For once, Davidian began to enjoy the killing. Belial, like a true villain, began to flee, opening the prison doors as he ran and releasing the remaining Moss prisoners.
Davidian continued to slaughter the Morse without a care in the world, following behind them with great enjoyment.
"Run! Run faster! Belial, release all the Morse you created! This chase will end with your death!"
Hearing David's mocking voice, Belial quickened his pace. As he fled, he kept thinking, "I can't die here! I have important things to do! I have to see my lover! I have to see Mashu! I can't die here!"
However, as he ran, he collapsed to the ground. The flames burned off his left leg, rendering him unable to run, and the intense heat even scorched his wound, preventing him from dying from excessive blood loss.
"Oh? You hit your left leg? What a pity. Looks like my aim is still a bit off; I actually aimed for your arm. I was hoping you could run a little longer, what a shame~"
Davidian spoke in a cheerful voice as he slowly walked towards him, which undoubtedly intensified Belial's fear.
But he had nothing to offer Davidian, and he couldn't even initiate a proper negotiation. At this moment, Belial could only lie on the ground trembling, watching in terror as the Phoenix Knight approached him.
The massacre... has begun.
Chapter 421 Progress
Well, let's leave aside Belial, who's currently enduring Davian's torture. After all, Davian was a student of Agravivan in this regard, so Belial is experiencing punishments that are difficult to find in modern times.
So let's take a look at Lentinium first. They didn't go to sleep immediately after returning to Lentinium.
After all, a bunch of messy things have just been resolved, and David has returned to Camelot. There shouldn't be a fight tomorrow, so they need to take advantage of this time to discuss what to do next.
“David and Morgan are busy with Bavanshi’s matter now, so this is our opportunity. The fifth bell is in Oxford, Bagster, can you help us with this?” Ritsuka said, and Bagster nodded without hesitation.
Baggett nodded to indicate that she could accept the task: "Leave it to me. I know the roads of Oxford very well. With Woodworth recovering from his injuries in Camelot, I can easily lead you into Oxford and ring the prophecy bell."
After receiving Bagst's assurance, everyone felt relieved, and the matter in Edinburgh could only be postponed for a while longer.
After all, now that David has returned to Camelot, Bagst has surrendered to their side, and Melyuchina no longer directly manages the army, the Queen's army front is practically leaderless, which is a great opportunity for them.
“Percival, you should bring a mobile unit with you. I can also send the Queen's army outside the city back to Camelot to resolve this crisis in Lentinium.”
After all, no one knows I've switched to the Prophet's faction yet; this is a valuable information gap.
Bagst has even come up with a solution to the current predicament of Lentinium, and everyone is grateful to her; she has truly been a great help.
"Is this really alright? Bagge, betraying someone to this extent..."
And Castor began to worry about her stance. What if, when the army returned to Camelot... no, perhaps even halfway there, Davidian might turn back? By then, he would surely realize that Bagst had already betrayed them.
By the time he realizes what's happening, Bagst will have to bear the brunt of David's Security Department's anger, because David's emotions are no longer as calm as they used to be.
But Bagst simply shook his head indifferently and said, "It doesn't matter. I was bound to bear Lord Davidian's full wrath for doing such a thing. However, to protect the fairies, even if only a portion of them... this is the sacrifice I have to make."
She displayed such noble spirit that even Castor didn't know how to dissuade her.
“However, if that’s the case, I won’t be able to come to your aid as an inside agent during the Battle of Camelot. At that time, we will have to face that city gate, the goblin knight Lancelot, and Lord Davidian.”
Bagst then brought up the inevitable Battle of Camelot, saying that if she hadn't exposed herself now, she could still have acted as an inside agent.
However, Castor smiled and comforted her, saying, "No need for that~ You've already done a lot, Baggezi. We'll break down the city gates when the time comes, you just fight within your capabilities."
Hearing her words, Bagst smiled. She said she would try her best, and perhaps many of her confidants would be willing to believe her, which would ultimately reduce the bloodshed.
"Also, Oberon, you mustn't secretly sabotage Bagst! After all, she's an ally now, and she's willing to accept the punishment she deserves after this is all over! Let's talk about it then!"
Caster stared at Oberon, who hadn't uttered a word since the start of the war council. It was clear he genuinely didn't want to speak because Bagster was there.
That's why Castor specifically instructed him in this way, and Oberon, who was singled out, sighed helplessly and said:
"Okay, okay~ I understand! After all, she's a rare asset, and Bagst is very strong and of high moral character. I won't try to trip her up now~"
"Thank you for your understanding, Oberon. I apologize for what happened before. Let's judge my sins after everything is over."
Bagst bowed to Oberon, who immediately gestured that she didn't need to, since he would still judge Bagst's mistakes after everything was over.
Now that the journey ahead was decided, everyone could rest. However, before the meeting adjourned, Bagst suddenly asked:
"Oh, right, about Masters and Servants. I also learned some things about Servants from His Majesty before, from the fabricated history of humankind..."
"The spirits drawn from the Throne of Heroes, a place beyond time, are summoned and controlled by the Master when needed. The Servant remains by the Master's side, and upon the Master's death, the Servant departs. Is that correct?"
She suddenly asked everyone a question that seemed like common sense, which made the others feel quite strange. Da Vinci-chan also asked her curiously if there was anything strange about it.
"What I want to talk about is the matter of Belial Gat. That man called His Majesty Morgan the Servant he summoned. However, His Majesty must have never called Belial Gat Master."
