Davidian's Holy Grail War

More importantly, Belial Gat had only been in the Fairy Kingdom for a few months, while His Majesty Morgan was a great fairy who had lived for 2000 years.

"That doesn't make sense. His Majesty existed before Belial Gat came to the Fairy Kingdom. Or is it that beings already present can be summoned as Servants?"

Since Bagst had asked her that question, Ritsuka reiterated their previous speculations to Bagst.

Even Bagst fell silent. She found it hard to believe that the story of the savior Ash was actually true. And that His Majesty Morgan was Ash, and that this even involved Morgan from pan-human history.

Fortunately, Bagst wasn't stupid; she understood and accepted the fact. While this fact increased her respect for Morgan, it didn't change what she was now doing.

In any case, Morgan is no longer the Ash. Unless she changes her mind about not saving the fairies, Bagst has no choice but to become her enemy.

Now that she had learned the information she wanted, the meeting could finally be concluded. Everyone could disperse to rest, while Bagst would go outside the city to have the Queen's army break camp and return to the city.

After the army has traveled all night, they should be almost at Oxford by now. By then, it will be too late to turn back.

Given Bagst's understanding of Davian, he probably wouldn't allow the Queen's army to turn back and continue attacking Lentinium, but would instead focus all his efforts on defending Camelot.

Everything will probably come to a final conclusion in the Battle of Camelot.

Chapter 422 The True Meaning of the Pilgrimage Bell

“As you wish, Your Majesty. Here is Belial’s head.” In the Throne Hall, David brought Belial’s head, but Morgan angrily kicked the grotesquely twisted head away.

Then she reached out and made an invisible grab in the void, and Belial's last remaining head exploded and disappeared.

"Don't leave Camelot any further. The battle against Lentinium is pointless now. All four bells have rung, and their offensive shouldn't be far off. Let the battle of Camelot decide everything."

Davidian knelt on one knee in salute; he certainly wouldn't leave Camelot. Nor did he need to leave; what remained was their war.

When dawn broke and Ritsuka and the others climbed the city wall, the massive Queen's army camp that had once been outside the city had completely disappeared.

Following Bagst's orders, the Queen's army swiftly broke camp and retreated to Camelot. Bagst herself remained outside the city, surrounded by a group of loyal followers willing to die for her.

The group left Lentinium and went outside the city. Bagst briefly introduced them to the dozens of fairy knights she had left behind. These were all her trusted confidants, and she had already told them the truth.

Even after learning of Bagst's betrayal, the group of fairy knights chose to stay and pledge their loyalty to her. They believed Bagst's choice was right, and so they decided to fight for their ideals.

“Let’s go, let’s go to Oxford and ring the fifth bell.” Bagst brought them all along, so that the whole thing would look more convincing.

Percival also led an elite mobile unit out, though getting into Oxford via Bagst wouldn't be a problem. But once the bells rang, it couldn't be kept secret any longer, and a battle might break out; they had to be prepared.

The Round Table Army members, all cloaked in disguise, hid in a wagon surrounded by the goblin knights, and headed towards Oxford, where the Fang Clan was stationed.

Upon arriving in Oxford, Bagstress's status ensured that the other fairies neither dared nor would obstruct her.

With Bogzat dead and Woodworth recuperating in Camelot, she was now the most formidable great fairy of the Fang Clan, so the Fang Clan in Oxford naturally had no objections to her.

So the rest was easy; they easily climbed up to the Bell-Striking Hall and rang the fifth bell.

When the bell tolled, the Fang Clan knew it was all meaningless. Seriously... they were completely fooled.

"Bagust, you actually betrayed us?" The third-in-command of the Fang Clan, who remained in Oxford, angrily questioned Baggust before him. However, Baggust raised her sword, and her fierce and brutal magic erupted completely.

"The sword I raise is aimed at those who have thwarted my wish to protect the fairies of Britain. If you have any objections, then you may fight me now."

Her words were so powerful that they intimidated the members of the Fang Clan present, and none of them dared to come up and fight her.

This was a struggle between factions and camps, not a fight for one's own life or death, and that is why everyone present chose to protect themselves.

They weren't stupid; with Woodworth gone, they simply didn't have the top-tier combat power to contend with Bagst.

And so, Bagst and his party left Oxford in a grand manner, and Oxford, in turn, chose to close its gates and never leave again.

They are now powerless to participate in this external conflict and can only choose to protect themselves.

On the way back, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They thought a real fight was about to break out, which would have been troublesome. Fortunately, thanks to Bagst's intimidation, the group of Fang fairies didn't cause any major trouble.

"Although I am from the Fang Clan, even I feel helpless about the nature of the Fang Clan. Although they are the guardian warriors of Britain, because of this special nature, they often act recklessly in Britain."

That's why Woodworth and Bogzart are needed to discipline them; otherwise, these guys could become a real headache if they let themselves go.

Upon hearing Bagst's words, everyone understood that the Fang Clan was a double-edged sword for Britain. They were a problem in themselves, but Britain couldn't function without them to protect itself.

“However, this means we’ve rung the fifth bell. According to the prophecy, there’s only one left, but…” Caster began to steer the conversation, as they already knew the Mirror Clan’s bell had been destroyed.

"The bell of the Mirror Clan... We've tried everything to find it, but I'm sorry, we couldn't help with that." Percival was also helpless; this was a regret for them, as the pilgrimage would never be completed.

Oberon also said that he had flown around in the air searching for a long time, but unfortunately he just couldn't find the sixth bell. Although it was a bit of a disappointment, he had no choice but to give up on the sixth bell for now.

“Think about it, didn’t the Norwich incident prove that Einzel’s prediction wasn’t absolute?”

Caster's magic has now grown to the point where it can cover the entire Round Table Army, and she herself is incredibly powerful.

I was quite surprised; it turns out King Arthur left her dragon's blood?

When this was mentioned, Castor proudly puffed out his chest and made a smug gesture as if waving his staff.

She's incredibly powerful now, not just in the realm of magic, but she herself is unbelievably strong, enough to take on Bagst one-on-one!

"Next, all we need to do is go to Edinburgh, form an alliance with Noknare's army there, and launch a unified attack. Then everything will be fine! Morgan, on the other hand, is in dire straits now!"

Auberon's words drew nods of agreement from the others. What he said made a lot of sense. Now, whether in terms of individual strength or military power, they were not much inferior to the Queen's Army.

Next came the alliance, which ignited the Battle of Camelot, and overthrew the Winter Queen Morgan's brutal rule over all of Britain.

"Speaking of which, although it's a bit late to ask this now, what exactly is this so-called Pilgrimage Bell? The clan chiefs will protect it, but what is it that is so special? Castor only needs to chant special words and resonate with magic, and the bell will even ring throughout the entire Britannia."

Ritsuka was now curious about the true form of the Pilgrimage Bell, while Mash, upon hearing his words, showed a surprised expression. She couldn't help but ask everyone present, "Does nobody know? Does nobody know how the Pilgrimage Bell came to be?"

This question stumped everyone else, but it turned out that Mashu knew the answer. Ritsuka remembered that Mashu might have heard Ash mention it, so she quickly urged her to continue. Mashu told them that she had heard that the Pilgrimage Bell was formed from the remains of a clan chief who had died.

The ringing of the pilgrimage bell signifies submission to the fairies of Paradise and agreement to their mission of liberating Britain. It is also a farewell to the six great clans of that era who relinquished their status as children of Arling and transformed into fairies of the earth…

"A sound of apology... So pilgrimage in Britain represents apology..." Da Vinci-chan finally understood. No wonder bells, which are used to drive away fairies in pan-human history, represent this meaning.

Chapter 423 The Chosen One

But Castor was dumbfounded. She couldn't help but ask, "The remains of the clan chief... aren't they the remains of the progenitor fairy?"

"Yes, although they were all originally the remains of the progenitor, it seems some were damaged during the calamity. In that case, it seems the bell was transformed from the remains of the current patriarch, or from the remains of the last..."

Upon hearing this, Caster was so frightened that she stood up abruptly on the truck. She shouted in terror at Bagst to get back to Lentinium immediately, as she had a bad feeling and needed to return right away!

However, after a brief silence, Bagst replied, "It's too late. I've already seen it. There's thick smoke rising from that place, and that direction... is Lentinium."

At the same time, everyone turned to look at Lentinium, where a huge cloud of dust was already rising. In the short time they had been gone, Lentinium had already been breached?!

"Go back! Go back! Gareth! Everyone!" Just as Caster shouted in terror, a white light shot into the sky!

The light of that miracle was more dazzling than any light Ritsuka had ever seen before. Both Ritsuka and Mash found it unbelievable. Who would emit such light at this time? Lord Davidian wouldn't be here, and Mr. Winchenrib wasn't here either.

Okay, let's rewind the timeline a bit. It was probably after Ritsuka and her team left, and Gareth finished her morning patrol. With the Queen's army gone, her tasks were much easier, and her mood brightened considerably.

"Ah~ I never expected to get help from that fairy knight Bagst. Things have become so much easier. The Round Table Army's future looks bright now. That's great."

As she walked back to the main gate, she was shocked to see what was happening inside.

Why? Why are people fighting each other with swords and knives? What happened? What's going on?

"Found it! It's a fairy! One of those guys who's with the Child of Prophecy!"

"Lost in the ring? Good, kill her now, she's a dirty member of the Round Table Army anyway!"

Someone spotted Gareth alone and charged at her with a sword. Although Gareth didn't understand what was going on, she still raised her shield and lance to fight back.

Now is not the time to think about these things. There are still children, women, and the elderly inside Lentinium. She must protect them all!

After rushing into the city, she instantly understood the situation from the words of those with stronger fighting abilities.

Were there spies planted among the refugees who infiltrated Lentinium? Their tone and style don't seem like those of the Queen's army. Could it be... could it be those people from Salisbury?!

"None of the people of Lentinium shall be spared! Including women and children! Our Britain has no need for such defective goods!"

Upon hearing these words, Gareth's heart was ignited. She gripped her lance and shield tightly and launched a swift attack, unleashing the full power of the techniques Percival had taught her!

At this moment, she was the strongest person in this Lundinium.

"You bunch of bastards, you don't even spare unarmed people?! Bastards!" Even Gareth, who is usually good-tempered, couldn't help but curse at this moment. She couldn't tolerate such despicable behavior, which was so shameful that it made her want to vomit!

"You'll learn your lesson, you bunch of scum who huddle together for warmth! When Percival returns, he won't see hope, he'll see despair!"

Gareth defeated another arrogant enemy, and she did her best to protect everyone she could see who she could protect.

“Sem, Samaria! Come to me, I will protect you! Is anyone still breathing? Is anyone still standing? Gareth of the Round Table is here! Come to me, I will protect you!”

She shouted loudly at her surroundings, which attracted the remaining survivors but also more enemies.

Many enemies recognized Gareth and approached, but Gareth now possessed not only equipment but also martial arts skills! She took down one enemy after another, and two enemies after two!

"Tsk! This guy is strong, he's definitely at the main combat force level! Why is he still here!"

“I know her, that girl is Gareth, a half-baked coward! She returned to Lentinium because she couldn’t keep up with the Prophet! Anyway, she won’t last long. If we all attack together, she’s no match for us!”

However, the men who charged forward again were driven back by Gareth and his men, leaving only a dozen or so survivors with her.

But their battle formation of a dozen or so men is still protecting the women and children in the rear. Gareth will never give in here!

"You're the cowards! You despicable villains who killed everyone with a sneak attack! Even dozens of you wouldn't be a match for me. If you don't want to die, you'd better tuck your tails between your legs and run away!"

As she spoke, she saw even more heavily armored human soldiers pouring into the main gate in the distance. Gareth could only grit his teeth; no matter how many enemies came, he had no choice but to hold his ground.

She cannot fall! Behind her are the last living people in Lentinium!

However, at that moment, a blue flash fell from the sky and rushed towards Gareth, and the blade that erupted from the intruder's wrist struck her head directly.
