But with this opportunity, Britain ushered in a period called "Peace of XX Years". Because no one knew when war would break out again, the count changed every year.
This year should be called the "Seventeen Years of Peace", but the fairies under her rule, taking a breather in this peace, instead began to think about annihilating Londinium.
There was no war and bloodshed, and some goblins gradually became tired of this kind of peace. In addition, small-scale conflicts on the border never developed into war, which led to today's meeting.
This is the fourth time this matter has been discussed.
"What a hopeless bunch of guys."
Leaving the throne, Morgan paced alone, talking to himself, and walked to the terrace behind the throne, from where he could see the big hole.
While dozing off, she suddenly remembered the witch's prophecy during the Fairy Calendar period.
In the war of the 400th year of the Queen's calendar, Camelot fell for the first time. Morgan was not too worried at the time, and the result was just as she knew.
Apart from the damage to the city walls caused by the siege, there was no loss inside the city. Only the streets were stained red with the blood of the goblins.
It was only later that she learned from the surviving fairies how Shiomi killed the fairies who opened the gates and surrendered the city.
The God King's army escorted these goblins to the edge of a large cave and forced them to jump in. Those who could not jump would have their heads chopped off.
That event later became known as the Camelot Incident.
According to the legend that spread from Londinium, the God King called this the "Camelot Fairy Ropeless Bungee Jumping Contest."
Morgan didn't quite understand the meaning of this statement and could only smile bitterly in his heart.
Every time Camelot fell after that, the same thing happened.
Similarly, there was a decisive battle in the River of Tears a thousand years ago. A large number of captured fairies were forced to jump into the River of Tears and die in the same way. It is rumored that the God King called this the "River of Tears Diving Competition."
In short, it can be described by a sentence that Shiomi said to her during a journey thousands of years ago.
"The evil God-King delights in killing fairies, and even the Winter Queen is powerless to prevent these tragedies."
—Of course, Morgan himself allowed this to happen silently.
What she cared about more over the years was something else than the killings.
Disaster.
After the Winter War, no more disasters struck Britain. Instead, the God-King of Londinium launched one war after another, not for plunder or destruction, but simply to kill goblins.
Morgan didn't even know if there were still a small number of goblins coexisting with humans in the city of Londinium.
In the more than 1600 years since the Winter War, Morgan has explored the Great Void more than once. Even though she was unable to descend for an in-depth investigation, she noticed that something was missing from the Great Void.
This must be what Shiomi did to the remains of Cernunnos here during the first fall of Camelot.
For example... a seal?
Because he doesn't want disaster to happen and interfere with his war?
Coupled with the sudden peace in the past seventeen years, Morgan decided to send someone to present the credentials in the name of testing.
As expected, except for Meilushin, no other ministers dared to ask for orders, so Morgan had no choice but to send her.
Although there is no doubt that Meilushin wanted to take the opportunity to see Xijian.
Considering Xi Jian's possible attitude, Morgan simply didn't care and hoped that Meilushin would not say anything inappropriate that would displease Xi Jian.
"I just heard a huge noise over here. Are we going to fight again?" Habertlot came to find Morgan.
As a de facto companion and nominal subject, Teterot, who called himself by this new name, never appeared in front of the palace for meetings.
Morgan also gave Habertlot enough privileges to allow him to come and go from the palace at will to see her and talk to her.
"There's nothing we can do. After only a dozen years of peace, these demons are already restless." Morgan looked at the large hole and sighed softly, "My husband is so insightful. No wonder he never stopped in the past..."
"I thought you were finally going to completely cease hostilities and remarry," Habertlot said jokingly.
Morgan shook his head. "Not yet. But Bawan Xi has been doing well. He even followed my example and named her the Fairy Knight Tristan. I'm relieved."
"Shall we find a way to infiltrate Londinium for you?" said Habertlot.
It’s called sneaking in, but in fact it means going there directly. Anyway, Xiomi will provide support and help to conceal your whereabouts.
"Well..."
Morgan wondered whether he should ask Habertlot to go and ask. After all, Melusin might not get any useful feedback, and the letter that comes back probably won't have any clear answer.
Then, a strange feeling coming from the southwest caught Morgan's attention.
She looked back over there, a thoughtful expression on her face beneath her veil.
"What's the matter?" asked Habertlot.
"Someone passed through the Tower and entered this Britain..." Morgan pondered to himself, "Is it the so-called Hidden One, or... Chaldea?"
Shiomi shared with her all the information he had on pan-human history.
Morgan also knew about Chaldea. He had only told her that Chaldea would one day come to this strange world and warned her to be prepared for possible hostility.
That's why Morgan paid special attention to the towers in the fixed world.
"Is Chaldea an enemy?" asked Habertlot.
"...No, not necessarily." Morgan raised his hand to deny, but rarely did he follow the judgment left by Xijian.
If it really is Chaldea, then Shiomi's daughter and students should be among them.
To be honest, Morgan really wanted to meet the child she had never met.
"That--"
"I speculate that the visitor who entered this world should be near the Misty Coast. Habertlot, please go and investigate for me," Morgan said. "Don't worry, I will send a clone to accompany you. Once it is confirmed that it is not Chaldea, or that the other party has obvious hostile intentions, the clone will cover your evacuation."
Habertlot smiled. "So, I'm your ambassador?"
"You can say that. After all, you have been secretly carrying out diplomatic work with Londinium." Morgan smiled rarely.
In order to maintain her majesty as the Queen of Winter, she never smiles in front of the fairies under her rule.
"Then let's do it reluctantly and help our Queen investigate the guests of unknown origin." Habertlot joked.
Morgan shook his head helplessly. "Then I'll leave it to you. Please be careful and don't start a fight over a disagreement."
"That was when we were ignorant..."
Having said this, Habertlot turned and ran to prepare to set off.
Only Morgan was still looking at the southeast sky, and suddenly he realized a fact.
The Winter War never ended, but continued for two thousand years. The seventeen years of peace were merely a temporary truce.
Chapter 97: First Meeting on the Foggy Coast
In fact, just as Morgan had speculated, after formulating the investigation plan, Chaldea used the dimensional drilling ship Storm Border to break through the wall of light surrounding the Tower of the End near the British coast.
However, the fact that Britain has no human history caused Storm Border, based on the Nautilus, the Noble Phantasm of Xion's Servant Nemo, to temporarily crash.
So, in addition to Sakura and Ritsuka bringing Mashu, under the escort of Scathach and Artoria, the artificial Heroic Spirit Gran Cavallo created by Leonardo da Vinci - Chaldea called him Little Leonardo da Vinci at Leonardo da Vinci's suggestion - landed on the coast of Britain in the imaginary submarine Shadow Border capable of amphibious navigation.
"Such a thick fog...it really is England." Sakura looked around.
The fog on the coast was incredibly thick, and visibility was appallingly low.
That would be fine, but the bigger problem is that the thick fog covering the coastal area is not a purely natural phenomenon.
"I suggest you not go deeper into the fog for the time being. There is a curse in this thick fog." Scathach took a few steps deeper and immediately realized the problem.
Altria was also very surprised: "I don't think there is such a foggy area in Britain..."
"Could it be some obstacle set up by the people in the Lostbelt, my king?" Mashu asked seriously and politely.
Every time she traveled with Artoria, she could feel the spiritual base lent to her by the heroic spirit Galahad, and she was faintly excited, and her own emotions were also aroused. Naturally, she addressed Artoria as "My King".
"Perhaps so." Altria turned her head to look at the coast. "Perhaps it would be better to give up landing here and use the Shadow Border to sail along the coast and find a place without the cursed fog to land."
Sakura looked at Scathach at this time: "Is there no way to do something with magic, Master? If we use the original runes——"
"You mean the Rune that returns the curse?" Scathach crossed her arms and laughed helplessly. "That Rune was originally used to counter the curse, but the source of this thick fog, as I infer, has probably disappeared. In this case, if we want to rely on the original Rune to fight against the unknown curse-"
Scathach's gaze fell on Artoria.
"At least the magic power level must be on the level of the Knight King."
"So, we really have no choice but to change our landing location?" Sakura agreed.
Little Da Vinci reported the situation somewhat helplessly: "Scathach's analysis is absolutely correct. As expected, having a powerful magician by your side will make many things much more convenient."
"I just know a little bit of magic." Scathach was quite pleased with the compliment and said modestly as if jokingly, "Well, little Da Vinci, you should restart Shadow Border now and prepare to re--"
Before he could finish his words, Scathach and Artoria's keen perception made them move closer immediately. Mash also raised her shield, and the three of them blocked Sakura and Ritsuka behind them, forming the most basic formation to fight the enemy.
The red spear and the holy spear each showed their sharpness.
"Are there...enemies?" Ritsuka held his left wrist with his right hand, ready to activate his ceremonial outfit at any time.
Then, two figures, one tall and one short, walked out from the depths of the foggy coast.
The shorter one looked like a child, but he was riding on a strange machine and floating and moving.
As for the taller one, everyone was stunned for a moment just by seeing his figure.
Morgan.
"Mother...your Majesty?"
After being stunned, Ying immediately showed a happy expression.
But before she could come out to greet them, she was stopped by Scathach: "Don't worry, Sakura."
"Is it my illusion? Why is this Morgan..." Altria also murmured.
She was certain that the Morgan before her was not her sister from pan-human history, but she was not the Morgan that Chaldea was familiar with.
"Wow! There's a guy over there who looks a lot like you, Morgan!" The short man spoke in a cheerful voice.
Morgan pinched his chin and looked at Altria: "You look a lot like me... Could it be that you are Altria Pendragon?"
"Do you know us?" Scathach did not relax.
"...No, I can't say I know you." Morgan gently pointed to his head. "Someone gave me your information. To me, you are just familiar strangers who can match the records at a glance."
"Really?" Altria understood.
She still didn't know what the connection was between the Morgan who had been in Chaldea and the Morgan now.
However, a speculation has been formed, that is, after this... for some reason, this Morgan became Shiomi's servant and truly got to know the Chaldea group.
What exactly is the reason——
"Since I don't sense any hostility, should we lift our guard, Master?" Mashu asked.
After all, Ms. Morgan took good care of the girls in Chaldea, so it would be difficult for Mashu to become hostile to her without any reason.
"I think it's believable. What do you think, Sakura-senpai?" Ritsuka agreed.
"...Can I ask a question first?" Ying raised her hand and stroked her heart. "Mother...Ms. Morgan, you didn't come here to fight or stop us, right?"
"For now, I have no reason to become your enemy." Morgan said calmly, "As for what happens next, it depends on your actions."
"But it's strange that you know Morgan but not me. My name is Habertlot, and she arranged for me to be the Camelot diplomatic ambassador to contact you." Habertlot introduced himself happily.
As soon as they heard the name Camelot, everyone's eyes fell on Artoria.
"Camelot...are you the king of Britain in this lossbelt?" Altria was very calm.
Whether it was Morgan over there or Morgan in front of her, she could actually accept the current situation.
The Lostbelt means different possible worlds.
Morgan became the king of Britain and founded Camelot, which is the thread of this world.
"That's the understanding," Morgan said, his gaze fixed on the armored vehicle washed by the sea on the beach. "Is this how you passed through the Wall of Light and arrived in Britain?"
Obviously, she had her doubts.
"No... that's not the way to say it..." Little Da Vinci said with an awkward smile, "I don't think I can hide it from you, so I'd better not say anything. You're right. The warship that actually helped us get to this place was the one anchored in the distant sea."
"Really?" Morgan nodded slightly and declared, "If you want to enter Britain, let me see your sincerity first."
