This is a drastic change.

Each Knight of the Round Table felt something different.

【You don’t know these things.】

[Because you and Lancelot, who are at the landing point of the Rhongomyniad, are the two Knights of the Round Table most affected. ]

[You and he fainted.]

[Gift of the Red Dragon + Activated: The blood of the Red Dragon flows in your body, providing you with protection from Altria.]

[You woke up earlier than Lancelot. ]

[You sense that something is not right.]

Killing the humble king Vortigern with the Rhongomyniad should have been a cause for joy.

But Ian discovered that this was not the case.

The magic power flowing in his body was silently telling him that some drastic changes were taking place where the Holy Spear fell.

What caused all this?

Ian's eyes searched the surroundings.

The first thing that caught my eye was the three holy swords in the lake.

At this moment, they are stuck in the ground in bunches here and there.

Ian ruled out this possibility almost instantly - because he didn't feel anything unusual about the Excalibur Galatine.

There shouldn't be any problem with Aroundight and Excalibur, both holy swords of the lake.

So--

He looked ahead.

Artoria was standing in front of the shining Rhongomyniad.

The conceptual weapon that had been sent into this world in response to her wish was now flashing an indescribable light.

It should still be its problem.

Using his trembling hands to support himself on the ground, Ian slowly climbed up.

It must be said that even if it was just the aftermath of the fall of the Spear of the End (Rhongomyniad), it was definitely not an impact that ordinary people could withstand.

If he had not absorbed enough magic power from Altria, he would probably have ended up in a coma like Lancelot.

Of course, it’s not that good.

Every time Ian dragged his body forward a step, he could feel the bones all over his body wailing.

[It's only a short distance between you and Altria, but you feel like you've walked for a very long time.]

[You went through so much hardship to get behind her. ]

You called out her name.

"Artoria."

If it were in the past, the girl would definitely turn around happily, then pounce on him like a nimble rabbit, hug him, and bury her head in his chest.

But at the moment.

Altria did not react to Ian's words.

"..."

Ian found this a little unbelievable - did she not hear what he said?

"Artoria?"

He shouted again.

This time the sound was much louder, but the result was exactly the same.

Ian sensed that something was wrong.

He reached out and tried to touch the girl's shoulder.

But the moment it came into contact, a powerful force prevented it from happening.

This is something unprecedented.

You didn't panic.

【You know there must be a reason for this situation. 】

【You analyze it quickly.】

[Nothing has changed between you and Altria.]

[The only extra thing is the Rhongomyniad.]

[You realize that she is entering into some kind of contract with this holy spear.]

What kind of contract would that be?

Ian had no idea.

After all, neither Altria herself nor Rhongomyniad were existences that he could fully understand.

but--

Looking at Altria's motionless back, Ian felt that it would definitely not be something good for her.

So--

Even if there might be some danger, we have to find out what the contract is.

Ian took a deep breath and reached out his hand to Altria again.

[You are resisting that powerful force with your mortal body. ]

【You can feel that every part of your body is under tremendous pressure. 】

[Blood flows from the corner of your mouth, and the sound of broken bones echoes in your body.]

But you didn’t let go.

【You know you have to figure this out yourself.】

【This is what you should do.】

[As if it was destined, you broke through the power that was blocking you.]

【You witness a sacrifice in progress.】

There is no free lunch in the world.

The appearance of Rhongomyniad is not without cost.

This conceptual weapon that goes beyond conventional cognition is not something that a king can easily hold in his hands.

and so--

After killing Vortigern, you need to pay it enough chips.

Altria chose the part called "human".

She will dedicate all her concepts of "humanity" to the shining Rhongomyniad in order to achieve complete repayment for the price she paid.

This young girl will gradually lose all connection with "human" existence and will no longer think in a "human" way.

After a long time, she will become a wandering ghost in the world.

And what they get in return is the return of the Age of God.

"..."

How can you do this? !

The price of defeating Vortigern is to sacrifice Altria's concept of being a "human"?

Why is there such a price?

No!

Absolutely not!

This is not the ending she deserved!

correct!

Then use yourself as a substitute other than her!

Ian looked at his hands and didn't hesitate.

He's been a jerk for too long.

This time, he wanted to be the one to save her.

[Gift of the Innate Red Dragon + Lost: Even the blood of the red dragon cannot protect you who have changed and forcibly interfered with this contract. ]

[The talent of Excalibur Galatine++ is lost: The blessing from the sun cannot protect you either, and you can no longer hold the Excalibur Galatine.]

[Genius Knight King's Shadow + Lost: Your existence begins to become thin, and no one will regard you as King Arthur's shadow anymore. 】

[Gifted Knights Live Forever + Lost: The Holy Lance's interference prevents you from being remembered as a knight, but the Knights of the Round Table will still live on.]

[The talent for combat continuation has been lost: This is a concept beyond "death", you cannot avoid it. ]

[The girl's awakening has been lost: you have been deprived of the nature of being a "human" and can no longer serve as a place for Altria's emotions. ]

"Artoria."

Ian used all his strength to touch the girl's cheek.

"Finally I can give it back to you."

He kissed her - giving the girl's last bit of affection back to her.

"I'm just a despicable bastard and I don't deserve your affection."

"From now on, please live the way you like."

"Your destiny should not be controlled by anyone."

[You have lost your qualification as a "human being."]

[The Queen's Curse+++ has been enhanced to the Queen's Curse EX: Without any protection, you are completely corrupted by Morgan's curse and become something other than a "human".]

[And even though you are like this, there is still one target that you must eliminate for Altria. ]

[You must completely break the chains of fate imposed on her.]

85. I will kill you again and again! (-word chapter)

[The person you are going to get rid of is none other than Merlin, who made the prophecy many years ago.]

[All the sufferings that Altria suffered were caused by his and King Uther's self-willed decisions.]

[King Uther is not a wise king at all, and Merlin's prophecy is just a prearranged drama. ]

[Sacrificing one person's happiness in exchange for Britain's so-called future. ]

【What a shameless lie this is! 】

【You can't accept this. 】

You refuse to accept this.

【You must deny all of this by yourself. 】

[The obsession bestowed upon you by nature has been activated: you, whose nature as a "human" has been erased, are wandering on the earth in the form of obsession.]

[You left without waiting for Altria to wake up.]

[Because you know that meeting her at this moment will only cause her more pain.]

The "person" named Ian disappeared completely.

But the world keeps going on.

A few dandelions were blown up into the sky by the cool breeze and drifted away into the distance.
