“Buzz—boom!!”
A ray of light shot down from the sky, and a slender object shining with dazzling light landed steadily in front of Longominiad. Then, several strips of light fell and wrapped around the object in front of Longominiad.
"I have already given you a chance. Since you still choose to stand against me, then you will be judged by me." Rongominiad said, and then he grabbed the holy spear that appeared in front of him.
"Holy Spear, pull out the anchor!"
"It is the anchor of the storm that tears the sky apart and connects the earth, the light emitted by the end—"
"Shining in the Spear of the End! (Rhongomyniad)"
Chapter 653: Revealing Your Identity
"Ms. Lily, is it really okay for Mr. Zhao Si to go in alone?" Outside the light column, Fujimaru Ritsuka asked Lily beside him with some concern.
Although he had personally witnessed Zhao Si resisting the Holy Judgment, this time he was facing the Lion King face to face, and it was impossible to say that he was not worried at all.
"I believe in Mr. Zhao Si's judgment. Don't worry, Miss Fujimaru." Lily responded.
After she finished speaking, as if sensing something, Lily turned her head to look at Bedivere who was standing beside her. She saw that the knight was covering his right hand and looking at her with a look of uncertainty on his face.
"..."
Looking at her former subordinate in front of her, Lily lowered her eyes, and her mind couldn't help but recall what Aika Sajo had said to her when she had just come into contact with the Chaldea group.
"That subordinate of yours is not a Heroic Spirit himself. I believe you have already sensed it."
"Yes, the thing in his right hand is the holy sword you asked him to return. However, it seems that he didn't do as you asked. Humph, he is so useless that he can't even order a servant around."
Lily remembered that Ai Ge was saying this and mocking her at the time, and she could only smile bitterly.
"Since you plan to help them, then go find that guy and get the Holy Sword back. Otherwise, you won't have the chance to get close to the Lion King."
"Hmph, but I must remind you that the reason your subordinate has survived until now is because of the power of the Holy Sword. If he loses the Holy Sword, I think he will disappear completely, even his soul will cease to exist."
"It's up to you to decide how to choose."
choose?
Closing her eyes, Lily did struggle for a while when she heard that taking the holy sword back from Bedivere would lead to Bedivere's death, but now, she has made her choice.
No, it wasn't that she had to make the choice, but rather that returning the holy sword was Bedivere's obsession.
Regardless of whether Lily decides to help them or not, the knight will eventually choose to come to the Holy City and return the holy sword to his king in order to awaken the king's true spirit.
However, what Bedivere did not know was that in this situation, even if he returned the holy sword to the Lion King, the Lion King would never turn back into the King Arthur he knew and was loyal to.
because....
"....you....!?"
Bedivere looked at the girl in front of him. He hesitated for a moment and was about to ask the question in his mind, but the next second, an expression of astonishment and even disbelief filled his entire face.
"Om!!"
A soft white light surged over Lily's body, and the magic costume made by Aika Sajo, which could conceal her body, turned into tiny points of light that danced and dissipated.
With her golden hair fluttering in the wind and wearing a white armor, Lily's face, which had been hidden for a long time, was finally revealed to everyone.
"Ms. Lily...!?"
Looking at Lily in front of her, Fujimaru Ritsuka felt a familiar feeling coming over her. After a moment of confusion, she finally remembered the scene in her memory, and the expression on her face changed accordingly.
"Senior!! Be careful!"
It can be said that her reaction was quick. For Mashu, who had experienced the first singularity with Fujimaru Ritsuka, her reaction was even quicker than Fujimaru Ritsuka. She recognized Lily's identity first and reacted accordingly.
"when!!"
A huge cross shield unfolded, and Mashu stood between Fujimaru Ritsuka and Lily, looking at Lily with a vigilant look.
In the first singularity, their final enemy was King Arthur, who was dressed in black armor and looked as if stained by filth. Mashu can still remember his face vividly.
Speaking of King Arthur, everyone knows that the Lion King in the light column is essentially King Arthur himself. If that is the case, then Lily, who looks exactly like King Arthur, is worthy of vigilance.
As a warrior, Mashu's first consideration was the safety of Fujimaru Ritsuka. However, for Fujimaru Ritsuka, after the surprise gradually passed, she also realized some problems.
Then, she patted Mashu's shoulder, looked at Lily and said, "Mashu, relax. I think Miss Lily is not our enemy, am I right?"
The latter sentence was said by Lily, and after hearing it, Lily smiled approvingly and nodded.
"As expected of the Master of Chaldea, you possess such qualities. No wonder you have received the help of so many heroes and have come this far."
"Well, everyone is just thinking about saving humanity..." Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly.
Then, she looked at Lily and confirmed again, "Miss Lily, are you really the legendary King Arthur?"
After saying that, Fujimaru Ritsuka did not forget to glance at Bedivere beside him. He saw that after seeing Lily's true form, this person had been in a state of stunned disbelief from the beginning until now.
After hearing Fujimaru Ritsuka's question, he came back to his senses instantly and looked at Lily with a mixture of uneasiness and expectation on his face.
"Yes."
Hearing this, Lily nodded first, then changed the subject and added:
"To be precise, the me before you is not actually a complete individual, but a manifestation of King Arthur's human side, a symbol of the part of King Arthur that is human."
"As a part of being a human?" Ritsuka Fujimaru asked doubtfully.
"Well, because the holy sword has not been returned for a long time, I was corrupted by the divinity within the holy spear Rongomyniad, and eventually turned into an undead spirit named Lion King, wandering the world." Lily explained.
While she was explaining, Bedivere looked at Lily. He opened his mouth, but it felt as if a stone was blocking it. He couldn't utter a word. He could only hold his arms, his body trembling slightly.
"So this is the origin of the Lion King? Then Miss Lily, you are now..." Looking at Bedivere with a complicated look, Fujimaru Ritsuka continued to ask.
"After I became the Lion King, until you came to this world, my Master arrived here first."
"Ms. Sajo?"
Lily nodded and continued, "When the Master arrived here, she quickly discovered my existence and separated me from the Lion King's body, allowing me to function as a relatively independent individual."
"To extract a single side of a person and make it exist as an independent individual in the form of a heroic spirit? Are you kidding me? That girl can actually accomplish such a miracle on her own?" Romani, who had been listening to the conversation here, could no longer hold back and said in amazement.
No wonder Hassan the Curse and the others said that Shatiao Aige could compete with the Lion King who was already a god.
Because this method is no different from that of a god.
Chapter 654: The big one is coming?
After finishing her explanation with Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others, Lily slowly turned her gaze towards Bedivere who was standing beside her.
"Bedivere..."
"puff!"
Lily was just about to explain her intentions to Bedivere, but just as she called out his name, the next second, she saw Bedivere suddenly kneeling down in front of her.
"Bedivere?!"
Looking at Bedivere who suddenly knelt down towards Lily, Fujimaru Ritsuka hurriedly said.
"My King, Bedivere, I..."
With his head lowered, Bedivere knelt on the ground. On his face, which was invisible to everyone, emotions of regret, self-blame, and pain appeared.
All of this was due to his own selfish desires. Because he didn't want his king to die, he didn't follow the king's orders to return the holy sword. In the end, his king was corroded by the divinity of the holy sword and turned into a wandering undead spirit.
He already knew this when Leonardo da Vinci first told them about the Lion King. When he heard that the Lion King had turned into a cold and indifferent god, every word the other party said was like a sharp knife constantly cutting into his heart, and he kept questioning himself why he had disobeyed the king's orders.
Obviously, to him, that was the king he respected and believed in the most, but he betrayed the other party's trust.
Thinking of Lily's words, Bedivere felt a suffocating feeling enveloping him tightly. The huge shame in his heart towards King Arthur continued to torment his mind, making him unable to utter any sound, and the scene in front of him kept spinning.
"thump!!"
"Bedivere!!"
Seeing Bedivere suddenly fall to the ground, Fujimaru Ritsuka's face changed and he hurried over to help him up.
"Bedivere, are you okay?"
Looking at Bedivere, whose face was pale and cold sweat was oozing from his forehead, Fujimaru Ritsuka asked worriedly.
"I'm fine, Fujimaru, I just..."
Bedivere spoke intermittently, he looked towards Lily, and then perhaps out of fear of seeing the disappointment in his king's face, Bedivere lowered his head again.
"Lift your head, Bedivere."
Lily's gentle voice rang in his ears. Bedivere was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly looked up at Lily.
He saw that, contrary to what he had imagined, there was not even a trace of blame on Lily's face. On the contrary, Lily was looking at her with a smile on her face.
"My king..."
Bedivere said in a daze. He looked at Lily in front of him. In a trance, the smile on her face slowly overlapped with the smile he had seen on King Arthur's face in the past.
Lily walked forward and looked at Bedivere. During the time when he was hiding his identity and traveling with Fujimaru Ritsuka, she was paying attention to all kinds of situations of Bedivere.
Because of this, she was very clear about the other person's mood, the guilt and struggle that he had always felt towards her, and his obsession.
Do you feel resentful and want to blame the other person?
In fact, for Lily, all she saw was a knight who was desperately praying to make up for his mistakes. How could anyone have the heart to blame him for such a real and strong feeling towards the monarch he was loyal to?
"You are a qualified knight. I have always been very sure of this, and you have not disappointed my expectations, Bedivere." Lily said to Bedivere.
"No, it's not like that, King. I...I am guilty."
However, Bedivere was not happy about Lily's words. He only felt a strong sense of guilt piling up in his chest.
It's me, it's all because of me. It was because I didn't return the holy sword that the king eventually became the Lion King. This is my sin, an unshirkable responsibility.
He lowered his head, gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and Bedivere's eyes were wet with tears.
"Yes, I know." Hearing this, Lily nodded and did not deny the mistakes Bedivere had made.
"But, Bedivere, you've been trying your best to make amends, haven't you? Through all the ups and downs, you've been constantly looking for me, right?"
As she spoke, Lily put her hand on Bedivere's shoulder and patted it gently in a soothing manner.
"Bedivere, I have never blamed you. You will always be my loyal knight."
At the same time, within the beam of light.
The roars that rose one after another continued to resound in this enclosed space. Above the holy city, two beams of light and shadows intersected at a high speed, and each collision caused violent fluctuations.
"Why would you want to help them? The end wave is approaching, and there's no chance of saving this world. Everything they've done is in vain."
The attack stopped, and Longominiard was seen covered in armor, holding a holy spear, riding a white horse. His faint eyes under the armor stared at Zhao Si and said.
"Maybe, but the reason I'm standing here is just to repay a favor. Who knows what will happen in the future?" Zhao Si said.
After that, Zhao Si asked with interest, "But you, you clearly said that you and King Arthur are essentially two completely different beings. Why are you still so obsessed with hindering them?"
"Obstruct? No, you are wrong. I did not intentionally obstruct them. On the contrary, they came here on their own. If I must say, it was they who obstructed me. I guess I am right." Longominiard said coldly.
"As for why I'm doing this... I should remember where my roots came from. I'm simply carrying out the wishes of the owner of this body."
"So that's how it is..." Zhao Si nodded after hearing that.
He, Shatiao Aige and Lily had all guessed wrong about the Rongomyniad in front of them.
Originally, in their minds, although the Lion King was eroded by the divinity of the Holy Lance, he was still King Arthur in essence. Even though Lily, who symbolized his human side, was extracted by Aika Sajo, what remained was only the completely deified King Arthur.
However, after fighting for a while, Zhao Si himself overturned this idea.
The Lion King in front of him is very different from King Arthur in essence. It can even be said that she is the divine incarnation of the original Holy Lance, and now occupies King Arthur's body.
Well, to put it simply, once he obtained the Holy Lance, he not only developed his own independent personality, but also took over King Arthur's body, becoming the Lion King we know today.
In a situation like this, it was fortunate that Zhao Si agreed to help. Otherwise, if only Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others came, let alone whether they could get in here, let's assume that Ozymandias successfully blew up the magic barrier.
Even so, it is impossible for Lily and the others to defeat Longomeniad. Even if Lily takes the holy sword back from Bedivere, there is a high possibility that she will fail.
Because at this moment, Longominiade no longer has any weaknesses that can be exploited. Even if she faces Lily, who is the human side of King Arthur, she will not hesitate to raise the Holy Lance and launch a Holy Judgment on her.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and show us your real abilities. I don't know why, but you shouldn't be limited to this level," Zhao Si said.
Right now, without using his treasure, his strength is at most at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core level. However, the opponent, as a pseudo-god, can fight with him for such a long time. This is not normal in any way.
"Indeed, everything is almost ready." Upon hearing this, Longominiard nodded, and then the next second.
"Om!!"
The clouds in the sky above were violently rolling, gradually gathering into a spiral shape, thunder was surging, and an oppressive atmosphere spread.
