"Ian, we have to find out."
"Otherwise... this trip might be in vain."
"..."
At this moment, Ian completely understood what Mary meant.
If this is something that absolutely cannot be changed in the past, then what she and I have to do is to make things develop in the original direction as much as possible.
"Lancelot" must have;
Of course, there must be "Guinevere".
"But is this really possible?" Ian couldn't help but ask, "Wouldn't it be logically contradictory to be two people at once?"
"Will not."
Meili said confidently.
"Ian."
"Don't forget—'Lancelot' and 'Guinevere' are not yet connected, so it's basically impossible for them to appear at the same time."
"As long as you and I think carefully enough, all of this will definitely be possible."
"..."
After listening to Mary's words, Ian realized that this was an unavoidable situation.
"I see."
"If that's the case... then let's do as you say."
You and Mary have reached an agreement that no one else knows about.
[And you suddenly understood why only you could "become" Guinevere - because no one else could understand what kind of person Altria was.]
You feel like everything is going in a very wrong direction.
[And you and Mary are the only ones who can turn this around.]
Inside the round table meeting room.
Ian, disguised as "Lancelot", and Merlie, disguised as "Merlin", returned to Altria.
"king."
"Do you remember the third knight who fought beside Lancelot before you?"
"..."
This is asking knowingly.
As the king, Altria could not remember Ian, nor could she remember Ian.
That is a memory that belongs to the girl alone, and it will only be revealed when she is deeply in love.
that's the truth.
Sitting on the throne, the side of Artoria's face was slightly turned red by the sunlight, and her originally snow-white skin was also hidden in it.
"No."
Wang took the initiative to admit his mistake.
"I cannot recall the name of that brave knight who fought beside Sir Lanlost and I."
"But I am sure that there is such a knight."
"I see."
Meli didn't continue to press Altria on this topic.
"So--"
"Let's just assume that this is a person who exists."
"I hope the king will remember this knight as soon as possible, so that he can be properly canonized."
"Yeah." Altria nodded, "I think so too."
A few simple exchanges temporarily put the non-existent third person aside.
And the king's round table meeting also began.
The Knights of the Round Table came one after another to the meeting hall with the huge round table and greeted Artoria.
The King of Britain also responded and arranged seats for them.
Whether it was intentional or Mary did something, Ian found that his seat was right next to hers, and very close to King Arthur Altria.
"Everyone."
Altria's gaze swept over everyone present.
It was a look that held a certain majesty, and anyone who came into contact with it would feel that the king was talking about something very important at that moment.
"I asked you to come here today just to ask you a very simple question."
"That is……"
Artoria grasped her sword, Excalibur.
"What do you think Britain should do next after getting rid of Vortigern?"
"..."
"..."
The Knights of the Round Table present looked at each other in confusion.
Probably no one would have thought that Altria would say such words at this time - because King Arthur is the supreme king of Camelot.
Such matters that determine the future of the country must of course be decided by King Arthur alone.
And it seemed that he had expected the knights under his command to have such a reaction.
Artoria quickly continued:
"Don't worry about it."
"I just want to know your opinions—I'm not saying I'll actually do what you say. I've already made up my mind."
"..."
"..."
But Artoria's deliberate statement did not make the knights excited, but instead made them fall into deeper confusion.
This is so right!
But at this moment, a knight suddenly stood up.
That's Kay.
As Artoria's sworn brother, he has always been the most vicious in words, but the one who supports Artoria the most in actions.
He saluted directly towards his king.
"If it's what I see—"
"Of course you need to rest and recuperate."
"The battle with Vortigern has already consumed too much of Camelot's manpower. If we don't properly repair it, the people will definitely be disgusted."
"That makes sense."
Artoria, who was sitting on the throne, nodded.
"I'll think about it—please sit down, Sir Kay."
"Okay, thank you, King."
With Kai's beginning, the following things became a lot simpler.
After realizing that Artoria might just be asking a simple question, the knights began to speak enthusiastically.
Different opinions were now surging like a wave in the round table discussion room.
For example, Bedivere, the court butler who was extremely loyal to King Arthur Altria from beginning to end, proposed to organize more people to build some memorial buildings to prove the importance of the Battle of Vortigern;
The quiet and taciturn assistant officer, Ah Guiwen, only proposed a simple method for dealing with the surrendered soldiers of Vortigern.
A character like Gawain expresses that he has no ideas and will just follow the king's footsteps to do things.
Poets like Tristan hope to support themselves by weaving poems for the dead soldiers and comforting their families.
but--
Although the knights had different ideas, Ian could feel that they were indeed fighting from the perspective of Camelot and saying these words.
Altria's cohesiveness was fully demonstrated at this moment.
perhaps--
This is what they call, everyone respects the king, right?
"Be careful, it's coming for you."
Mary said this as if giving some advice.
But before the man could answer him, he was caught in the sight of Artoria.
For one of the three people in the final battle, Artoria had considerable respect for "Lanlost."
After all, in the final analysis——
Aroundigh, the Unbroken Lake, was also a very important existence in the battle of Vortigern.
"Sir Lancelot, what do you think?"
"How should the future of Camelot, and indeed the whole of Britain, continue?"
"..."
For some reason, although the question was almost the same as before, Ian felt that there was a hint of anticipation in Altria's words.
She seemed to be waiting for herself, as "Lancelot", to answer this question.
After much hesitation, Ian finally gave his answer.
"So--"
"Perhaps it requires some unprecedented means?"
"..."
Altria's green eyes sparkled slightly.
That was a completely different reaction from when she saw other knights before - it seemed to indicate that she was now looking forward to what "Lanlost" would say next.
And Ian didn't hesitate, but continued.
"Actually... when Vortigern showed up, I think we should reflect on whether what we did before was a little bit against common sense."
"Or perhaps... is there something wrong that led to the emergence of people like Vortigern?"
"Although it may sound a bit disappointing to say it now, I think this is indeed something that is very necessary - when you are in a safe place, you should consider future dangers, and prepare things for rain before it rains."
"This...I think it's the best way."
"..."
"..."
Ian's words caused everyone present to fall into silence.
No one dared to respond to him - after all, it sounded a bit outrageous, and might even be a real nuisance.
After defeating Vortigern, he told King Arthur that there was something wrong with what he was doing...
This is simply...
however.
What no one expected was that in response to Ian's words, Artoria was not angry, but applauded instead.
"Sir Lanlost."
