But she soon realized that this was something she could never escape.
After all, he left Camelot with Guinevere.
Now that Guinevere hasn't come back and there's a little kid, everything he says is weird.
"correct."
The man nodded.
"I'm wondering... is there any way to avoid suspicion for you?"
"Lily, I think if we make this public now...it might not be appropriate."
"I……"
Ian looked a little embarrassed.
That was the most obvious manifestation of a knight facing something he was powerless to do anything about.
"I'm afraid I can't just acknowledge your and Mordred's identities like that."
"Fool."
Altria responded softly to Ian's concern, then reached out and gently tapped his head.
She had no idea how cute she was like this, and just wanted to let him know as soon as possible that she didn't care.
"I didn't ask you to admit Mordred's identity... I'm not stupid, so of course I can't tell you until now."
"Lily."
The difference in attitude between Altria and Morgan once again made the knight feel a "temperature difference".
The emotional balance seemed to gradually tilt at this moment.
but--
Before the two of them could remain as affectionate as they are now for too long.
Mordred's voice came first.
"Dad, Mom, I have a question!"
"..."
"..."
Ian and Altria both looked at their daughter, their eyes filled with the emotion of "what's wrong?"
Of course, Mordred also understood this, so she quickly continued:
"Why would that sister kiss daddy?"
"At a time like this, shouldn't mom be the one kissing dad?"
"..."
"..."
【Mordred's question can be said to be extremely sharp.】
[You have absolutely no answer in your head that can handle this question.]
[You thought Altria would be like this as well.]
But you soon discover that this is not the case.
【she--】
[There is absolutely no thought of escaping from all this.]
"Xiao Mo."
Altria's hand gently stroked Mordred's head.
Looking at this child who looked very similar to herself because he inherited her bloodline, the girl's tone became much gentler.
"That's a very important person to Dad."
"A very important person?"
Mordred began to murmur—she was not the kind of child who could be easily fooled.
"No matter how important it is, you shouldn't act like that in public—isn't that something only a mother can do?"
“No.”
Altria lowered her head and gently left a sweet kiss on Mordred's cheek.
"You are very important to me - so I will do this in front of you, understand?"
"Eh……"
Feeling the kiss from his mother, Mordred seemed to understand something.
"That--"
"Put me down and I'll go by myself."
"it is good."
Following Mordred's wishes, Altria put her on the ground and then looked at Ian.
The two looked at each other for a moment, then both laughed.
"You've got to be the one," the man said, not sparing his praise. "You took care of this naughty kid in no time."
"Well, I am her mother after all."
"correct--"
Altria looked around and after confirming that no one else was nearby, she continued.
"As for the problem you just mentioned, I have already figured out how to solve it."
"This……"
Ian was a little surprised.
After all, only a short time has passed since I mentioned it.
Artoria...has she already thought of everything?
"What are you going to do? Can you tell me in advance? That way I can cooperate with you."
"OK."
Artoria looked at her hands, as if she saw some past glory.
"I'll go with you, that's all."
"..."
This may be a rather unconventional move.
[You have no idea why Altria would choose this method.]
【But at this moment, all you can and must do is believe her. 】
[Because you know she absolutely cannot help but consider it—what happened along the way is enough to prove this.]
You promised her.
You guys are starting to take action.
You two separate first.
[You are responsible for "temporarily" handing Mordred over to Merry's care - the two of them unexpectedly get along well.]
What surprised you a little was that, instead of asking you what you were going to do, Mary proactively asked if you needed any "help."
【But you didn’t dare to ask for it. 】
[After all, what this guy considers "help" may not necessarily be what you consider "help."]
After settling Mordred down under the pretext of "continuing teaching," you hurried to your room as agreed with Morgan.
[And the moment you arrived, you finally understood why Altria insisted on coming with you.]
【because--】
[At this moment, she has changed back into the king's attire.]
"..."
Perhaps it had been too long since he had seen Altria wearing this dress, and for a moment Ian almost didn't dare to go up and recognize her.
And the other party seemed to know this.
So he quickly took the initiative to call out:
"Ian."
Hearing this suddenly unfamiliar name, Ian felt as if he had traveled back many years.
But he knew that all this was just a disguise given by Altria.
"Lily, why did you change back into this outfit?"
"Shh-"
Altria reached out and stopped Ian's lips.
"You can't call me that here—you have to call me King."
"..."
Although he felt inexplicably funny inside, Ian still stopped laughing.
Because he knew that now was not the time to joke around.
"oh, I understand now."
"it is good……"
Altria nodded seriously, then pushed open the door in front of the two of them.
[This is Altria's proactive "attack."]
[To be precise, it should be "surprise attack."]
[And this kind of "surprise attack" is indeed very effective.]
[At least Morgan hadn't expected her to come.]
"..."
"..."
"..."
The room suddenly fell into silence among the three people.
Morgan hadn't expected Altria to be here;
Altria, on the other hand, didn't expect Morgan to be so silent;
As for Ian, who probably should have said something, he couldn't open his mouth because of the atmosphere - after all, no matter what he said, it would seem a little awkward at this moment.
Perhaps realizing that this would not work, Artoria quickly took the initiative to take on the first responsibility of breaking the silence.
"I said--"
"Sister, do you want to know the identity of that child?"
"..."
Realizing that Altria wanted to talk to him about these things, Morgan simply stopped hiding it.
She nodded, confirming this statement.
"Well, I do want to know—you left Camelot with Guinevere, so why are you and this child the only ones back now? Where did she go?"
What is supposed to come will still come.
Ian looked at Altria and couldn't help but feel nervous.
Although he had 120% trust in her, he started the action without knowing her "plan".
