[This was the beginning of her life as king - despite the many unspeakable tragedies.]
"..."
Guinevere frowned slightly.
Obviously, she didn't understand why Ian brought her to a place where a broken stone stood.
This doesn't seem like it can convince me of my existence.
Fortunately, Guinevere was not confused - if she couldn't figure out what was going on, couldn't she just ask Ian, her guide?
And that's exactly what she did.
"Ian, you're not going to use a piece of stone like this to tell me what King Arthur achieved, are you?"
"That makes me look like a fool."
"Of course I can't do that—"
Ian held East Starion's reins tightly, as if he was holding some extremely important promise.
"You see stones like this everywhere. How can I possibly use it to tell you how great King Arthur was?"
"The key is not the stone itself, but the promise behind it."
"..."
"What do you mean?" Guinevere's tone became much more serious.
In fact, she is not as calm as imagined. When she encounters something she cares about, she will still break the silence.
"Isn't this just a simple stone?"
"Of course this can't be a simple stone."
"This is... the place where Artoria pulled out the certificate of the throne." The man said word by word, as if he was facing some extremely painful reality.
Of course, Guinevere couldn't fail to hear the sadness in Ian's words, so she quickly continued to ask.
"You sound like you hate this place—could it be that something unknown has happened here?"
"..."
Ian looked around and made sure that no one was staring at the two of them before he spoke in a low voice.
"Guinevere, this is what happened."
"King Arthur is, in a sense, a very similar person to you."
[You told Guinevere the secret of how Altria became king.]
[You let her know that the so-called king was actually a fate that was predetermined from the beginning.]
[Altria had no right to choose and could only accept it silently.]
[This scene is exactly the same as when Guinevere accepted a political marriage and had to come to Camelot.]
[Of course, you don't expect Guinevere to change her opinion because of such words.]
[But you know that you must at least let her understand all this - to understand that the pressure that Altria is carrying is actually not small at all.]
You don't want anyone to misunderstand this extremely pure girl.
That will make you extremely sad.
"..."
Guinevere's hands clenched together slightly.
"Ian...are you saying that King Arthur didn't actually want to be king?"
"King Arthur...was chosen by others?"
"..."
Ian was silent for a long time before he spoke the next words in the calmest tone possible.
"To say he was chosen might not be quite accurate—I think King Arthur himself did have ambitions in this regard."
"after all……"
Thinking back to how hard Altria worked, Ian felt a little better.
"She is truly a very hardworking person. In order to be worthy of her name, King Arthur, she works hard every day to practice, make up for her shortcomings, and enhance her strengths."
"Others may not know this... but as the Chief Knight of the Round Table, I saw it all."
"So I must be honest with you about all this—at least I can't let you misunderstand a king like this."
"..."
Hearing these words, Guinevere frowned slightly, looking a little conflicted.
Ian didn't know if it was because of empathy or something else.
But he soon heard the next sentence.
It was filled with some doubts and some shocking content.
"Ian, your tone seems a little different when you talk about King Arthur."
"Is this really okay?"
"..."
Guinevere's words silenced Ian.
Will I become excited when I talk about Altria?
It turns out that I have developed this habit without realizing it.
But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem to be a strange thing.
After all, he had indeed been getting closer to Altria recently, and he did feel happy when he saw her.
But... does being able to accept it mean it is right?
Ian couldn't help but ask himself this question in his heart.
Driven by this thought, he quickly asked the next question.
"Guinevere, can I ask you something?"
"what's up?"
"So, when I was talking about Morgan... would there be a similar situation? For example, he would be more excited..."
This was a struggle for Ian.
The so-called authorities are confused, but bystanders know clearly.
If I could use Guinevere's help to figure out some of my true thoughts, it would be a gain.
However, Guinevere didn't seem to want to do that.
"I don't know anything about this sort of thing—if you want to find out, you should just talk to Morgan directly."
"I don't want to cause a storm just because of a few words I said today."
"Besides, I'm not interested in the period between you and Morgan right now. If possible, please let me see more of Camelot."
There was a hint of caution in Guinevere's eyes.
"You said you would be my guide, right?"
"……Too."
[Put your doubts aside for now.]
You once again rode Eaststarion with Guinevere and toured the streets of Camelot.
You showed her the army that had fought against Vortigern.
[The majestic and strict aura made Guinevere realize how difficult it was to slay the white dragon.]
She expressed her admiration for the military and apologized for her previous disrespect.
【But you didn't stop there, instead you took her to visit more places. 】
You took Guinevere to visit Camelot's winery, letting her know that the king was not a rigid and unchanging person.
You took Guinevere to visit the market in Camelot and let her know that the king actually knew how to make the people of this kingdom live a better life.
[Her attitude towards King Arthur also seemed to gradually improve during this process.]
[Finally, she took the initiative to speak first.]
"That's enough. No need to take me anywhere else."
Guinevere said this while sitting on her horse.
Her tone was so humble that it was in stark contrast to what she had just said.
"I already know what you mean."
"Before...it was indeed my misunderstanding. King Arthur was not the foolish and unjust monarch I imagined, nor was he a person who acted recklessly."
"I apologize for my ignorance."
"It doesn't matter. Before people have a deeper understanding of things, they tend to have all kinds of misunderstandings and misconceptions about things they don't know."
Ian said this while looking at Guinevere in front of him.
"So, if you've changed your mind—"
"Then can you take out what you're hiding in your sleeve? I promise... no matter what it is, I will never tell anyone else."
"Otherwise, if someone else finds out... the situation won't be so simple anymore."
"..."
Guinevere looked at the man in front of her, and her hand movements began to hesitate.
Finally, she pulled out the thing she had hidden in her sleeve before - it was an exquisite little knife. Judging from the pattern on it, it was most likely brought all the way from somewhere outside Camelot.
"You want to kill King Arthur, don't you?"
Ian looked at the knife and said this to Guinevere.
"Ah."
"But that was in the past—" Guinevere responded, "If he was such a wise monarch, it wouldn't be surprising if he had a male potential."
"Eh?"
Ian was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized something.
After hesitating for a moment, he spoke;
"Um, Guinevere——"
"You don't know that King Arthur is a girl, do you?"

"..."
Hearing this, Guinevere's eyes widened and even her expression began to become exaggerated.
"what are you saying?!"
"King Arthur...how could he be a girl?!"
"..."
Ian thought about it for a moment and soon understood why Guinevere said that.
The timing of her arrival in Camelot was far too delicate.
This was the time when Altria announced her female identity to everyone - and Guinevere was arranged by Kai in a secret place at this time.
and so……
It's not surprising that I didn't witness the moment she took the oath.
"You don't understand yet." Ian nodded thoughtfully, "But in fact, King Arthur is actually a girl - her name is Altria Pendragon."
