"That is to say——"

"Is there any other reason why King Liao Dekuan didn't come to see us?"

"Ah."

Ian's expression grew a little graver.

"I think this is a little far from the truth."

"Lily, can you come with me to find out?"

"Isn't that natural?"

Altria smiled slightly, exuding a youthful aura.

"Wherever you are, I will be there."

[You have begun your investigation of King Liao Dekuan's territory.]

【Magic is common in this country, so you will soon discover something.】

"You guys use magic to cut down trees here?"

After hearing what an old carpenter said, Artoria looked surprised.

"Is this really possible?"

"How can I not do that?"

The old carpenter with a stubble on his face raised his head, then looked at Ian and Altria in front of him with a little confusion, and began to explain patiently.

"In the final analysis - magic is just a tool to reproduce some of our daily things."

"We can cut down trees with saws, and we can also cut down trees with magic."

"..."

"..."

Ian and Altria looked at each other, and then suddenly thought of something.

That was the Round Table in Camelot—the gigantic table that could accommodate a full 150 people!

This was something that had arrived in Camelot before Guinevere's visit.

The two were curious about how King Liao Dekuan made such a table, but now they completely understand.

"So that's it."

Ian nodded thoughtfully.

"Then this place is truly a magical place."

"Of course."

When the old carpenter talked about this kind of thing, there was a hint of pride in his hometown in his tone.

"Do you know King Arthur? He's the formidable fellow who led the Knights of the Round Table and fought their way out."

"In the end, we even killed that damn white dragon!"

"That's a friend of our King Liao Dekuan—they have a very good relationship."

"Hey, this..."

Artoria felt a little embarrassed when she was suddenly praised by others in a foreign country.

Although she understood that the other party had no idea of her identity, she still felt a little ashamed about it.

"No, it's so easy because the knights are so powerful."

"King Arthur...is only leading the charge for a little while."

"Not really." Ian held Altria's hand tightly. "I heard from someone that King Arthur took the risk alone and dealt with the white dragon by himself."

"Just this alone, I think, is worthy of being sung by the entire Camelot... no, should I say, the entire British?"

"..."

If she was shy just now, Altria now seemed happy.

She said in a small voice;

"If they want to sing it... I'd rather listen to you praising me in bed..."

"Uh-huh?"

The more the old carpenter listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

He always felt that the two people from foreign countries in front of him seemed to know something extraordinary.

"Who are you—and what do you want?"

"Oh..." Ian glanced at Altria beside him, "We are just a couple who happened to pass by here."

"Please don't mind it."

"in addition--"

"If possible, could I ask you to make something for us?"

"What is it?" The carpenter's tone changed when he heard that business had come.

"A set of chairs and tables for the little ones."

The knight's hand gently stroked the King's Girl's head, as if he was stroking a well-behaved little rabbit.

“Our kids will need it.”

"Eh……"

After hearing this, Altria became even more shy, while the carpenter's face showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

"So you're newlyweds—well, come later."

"I have to show you my skills."

【This is an unexpected episode. 】

[Although Altria nagged you for a long time after that, saying things like, "You shouldn't have been so loud."]

[But you can feel that her mood has obviously improved a lot because of what you just said.]

[This is probably one of the few times on this trip where you can relax a little.]

【However, it was only for a moment.】

Because your investigation is still ongoing.

[You have further learned about the situation in King Liao Dekuan's territory.]

[Contrary to your initial impression, this country seems to have been completely dominated by the name of King Arthur and related legends.]

【However, few people know that King Arthur's true identity is a gentle and lovely girl. 】

[Besides that, you have made new discoveries.]

[Regarding Guinevere's wedding, almost no one here knows anything.]

[Some of the answers I mentioned occasionally were things I'd heard of, but I hadn't really understood.]

This makes you feel more and more uneasy - how could no one from top to bottom pay attention to such a big thing?

【no. 】

[We must quickly meet King Liao Dekuan.]

[After much deliberation, you finally decided to borrow the name of King Arthur from Altria.]

[You disguised yourselves as messengers from Camelot and sent the soldiers the message that you were meeting with King Liao Dekuan.]

[And this request was quickly approved.]

Above the palace.

Ian and Altria are waiting for King Liao Dekuan to appear.

It’s just that the expressions of both of them seemed to be a little off - after all, the things they learned along the way were really too strange.

King Liao Dekuan who did not welcome his daughter at all;

And the people who were completely unaware of Guinevere's marriages;

Combined with the background of a country full of magic.

Everything reveals an indescribable weirdness.

"Lily, something seems amiss..." Ian said, "I feel like Wei'er's understanding is different from what we're investigating."

"Ah."

Altria nodded, answering the knight's questions carefully.

"If she truly came to 'assassinate' me for this country... then when we announced our names, these guards should have been furious. At the very least, they should have been surprised."

"But they received us very happily," Ian continued.

"That can only mean—"

"King Liao Dekuan no longer has the desire to assassinate you."

"No, to be more precise, this country doesn't have such intentions. They are even grateful for everything you have done."

"Where does Wei'er's murderous intent come from?"

"..."

"..."

[You and Altria fell into silence at the same time.]

This is a question you simply cannot answer.

[For everything, I'm afraid I can only wait for the father she mentioned, King Liao Dekuan.]

[And such an opportunity soon appeared.]

With the sound of steady footsteps, King Liao Dekuan appeared not far away.

He is over fifty years old, and his hair has long turned a layer of snow-white.

And it seems that due to his age, he doesn't look as energetic as before.

"Why would King Arthur send someone at this time..."

Speaking words that even Ian and Altria could hear, King Liao Dekuan appeared in front of the two with a worried look on his face.

"Are you the ones sent by King Arthur?" he asked.

Obviously.

King Liao Dekuan was meeting Ian for the first time, so naturally he didn't recognize him;

And of course, he didn't recognize Artoria, who had "taken back" her female body.

but--

This is actually a good time.

"Well, we are here at the king's command."

"Can you please ask other irrelevant people to leave here first?"

King Liao Dekuan hesitated for a while, and then nodded.

"You guys step back first, I have something to talk to them about."

"Yes!"

With King Liao Dekuan's order, the palace once again returned to silence.

"I can tell you this time—"

King Liao Dekuan looked at the two people in front of him and said this.

"Ah."

"It's quite simple, actually—regarding your daughter Guinevere's wedding, we have come to this land in compliance with the king's will, to extend an invitation to you to Camelot."
