Ian recalled Merlin's words.

"You are the only one who can save her from the effects of the Rhongomyniad."

"No one else can do this except you."

This is very offensive.

But at the same time, Ian had to admit that what he said was indeed right.

Artoria has a special feeling for him - and it is precisely because of this that he has the possibility of saving her.

This is a very strange feeling.

On one side, there is the king’s daughter who regards you as the most precious treasure in the world, but her love for you is not that deep;

On the other hand, there is the princess who doesn't care about you that much, but you can't forget her.

Likes and dislikes often cannot be linearly unified.

They are like two coordinate points scattered in different locations, understanding each other but never able to reach a consensus.

"Well, I see."

Ian reached out and gently wiped her cheek with the handkerchief that Altria had given him earlier.

That was something that only he knew, a proof of the girl's side.

now--

It was completely used back on the girl.

"Thank you for your hard work, Altria."

[You and Altria had an unfaithful contact.]

[Although you still restrain your behavior towards each other and don't do anything more exaggerated or radical.]

[You can feel that the boundary between you is being gradually erased in some extremely secret way.]

【Maybe--】

At some point in the future, you may be able to take a more radical step.

【But before that, you had a turning point. 】

[Morgan, for the first time ever, I've come to you on this night.]

619. Morgan senses the crisis in his marriage/Altoria's reward (4k)

This was a completely different meeting from usual.

[Or should I say——]

[It was more of an interrogation than a meeting.]

"My knight."

Morgan, who was sitting on the bed, stretched out his leg and pressed it against Ian's thigh.

"Why didn't you come back for two consecutive days?"

"Do you know what this means? Others will think there's some conflict between us."

"Knight, you should know what this means."

"..."

Ian certainly knew what this meant.

As the sister of the current king, King Arthur, Morgan is very concerned about her reputation.

No matter when, she hopes that she is perfect enough in the eyes of others.

This is indeed the case. With Morgan's deliberate arrangement, the two appear to be very loving in front of others.

This kind of affection is not limited to words and actions, but is a real action.

It was as if many people had seen the two of them walking hand in hand on the streets of Camelot—something quite rare to see for royal nobles.

With this deliberate arrangement, almost everyone living in Camelot will remember this kind of thing.

Some people even composed poems for this purpose, praising the love between the two in this simplest and crudest way.

This was something that Altria had never obtained before. When Morgan learned this, he was extremely excited.

"My Lady Princess, I have something to do."

"..."

Just such a simple sentence made Morgan suspicious in an instant.

"So what are you doing?"

"No matter how difficult the matter is, you can't stay away from me for two days, right?"

"..."

Ian remained silent.

And this silence further fueled the spread of Morgan's ideas.

He must be doing something unknown behind my back.

You have to ask clearly what it is!

otherwise……

I will definitely feel uncomfortable all over because of this.

"knight."

Morgan reached out and gently lifted the other person's chin, then spoke in a rather charming tone.

"You said you would always be loyal to me, right?"

Feeling the upward movement brought by Morgan's slender fingers, Ian hesitated for a while, and finally nodded.

"……Yes."

"My Lady Princess, you are right. I will always be loyal to you."

"..."

Hearing this, Morgan showed a satisfied smile on his face.

She just loved these moments when Ian expressed his loyalty to her.

"Then tell me—"

"Tell me everything about what you did and who you did it with."

"..."

You think about what Morgan said.

【You find out that she doesn't care about you as much as you imagined. 】

[At least at this time, she would approach you and ask you questions like now.]

【but--】

Should I really tell her everything?

[For the first time in your life, doubts like this arise.]

【And your consciousness quickly tells you the answer. 】

[That is, you absolutely cannot tell her everything exactly as it happened.]

The reason for this choice is simple—Morgan would definitely not accept that things between him and Altria have progressed to this point.

【Then let's do what she wants. 】

[This is a better choice for both you and her.]

[Thinking this way, you were completely unaware that you were gradually moving towards lying.]

[The so-called peace of mind has actually reached you invisibly.]

"..."

"I went to find Altria." Ian replied.

Almost instantly, Morgan frowned.

"It's her again."

"My knight, why did you go looking for her at this time? And you haven't returned to me for two days."

"Princess, please don't be nervous."

The Chief Knight of the Round Table spoke calmly.

"After killing Vortigern, we annexed a large amount of British land."

"Given my current status, it's only natural for Altria to seek my advice, right?"

"..."

Morgan couldn't refute Ian's words.

After all, as far as her own investigation is concerned, this kind of rectification after the incorporation is indeed necessary.

Otherwise, killing Vortigern would be a meaningless thing.

So much of Britain's land would be left desolate.

This was something Morgan absolutely could not accept - although she did not become the king of this land, she still loved this land.

"So...what advice did you give him?" Morgan asked quickly.

"Does it take me an entire night to explain all this?"

"Because that's what you once said." Ian continued fluently.

"Princess, I have told Artoria all the strategies you have used to govern the country."

"what?"

Morgan was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Ian said meant.

"Why did you tell her all that? This is clearly all I have painstakingly thought out!"

Facing Morgan's roar, Ian was not afraid at all. On the contrary, he had already expected all this.

"Because I think this will prove to her that you are better than her."

"My Lady Princess, you once governed Camelot so well—this proves that your policies are suitable for this land and can make it prosperous."

"If Altria can adopt it, it will perfectly prove what I said before, right?"

"..."

Ian's words clearly hit the nail on the head about what Morgan cared about most.

She really just wanted to prove that she was a more suitable king for this land than Altria.

So everything Ian just mentioned perfectly matched her thoughts at the moment.

only……

Morgan always felt that something was wrong.

She originally felt that there was an inexplicable relationship between her husband and Altria.

After staying out all night for two nights, this feeling was further amplified.

Am I... worried about his betrayal?

After some consideration, Morgan finally reluctantly accepted what Ian said.

However, this intelligent princess did not accept everything so calmly.

She also has her own bottom line and things that she cannot accept.
