"——"
Silence visited this space again.
The doomsday scene that destroyed the heaven and earth before disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed at all.
But the injuries on Artoria's body told everyone that what happened just now was all true.
However, it is precisely because it happened that it is unacceptable.
"... Why did you stop?"
Riding on her beloved horse, Artoria held the holy spear in her hand and stared at Luo Zhen. Her eyes, which had always been calm and emotionless, began to show waves.
"The power is exhausted... Isn't that why you stopped summoning?"
Arturia stared at Luo Zhen, who was still releasing astonishing magic power all over her body, but didn't even take a breath. Instead, she looked at Luo Zhen indifferently and said this.
"What are you planning? Human!"
Arturia asked.
It was obvious that after the battle just now, Artoria had admitted that Luo Zhen was a threat to herself.
Moreover, it is still a fatal threat.
The other party possesses bottomless magic and power, which makes people unable to believe that it is actually on a scale that a mere human being can possess.
If it weren't for the Holy Spear and the Holy Grail in hand, I'm afraid that I would have been wiped out by those terrible familiars just now.
Of course, being able to survive the siege of eleven natural disaster-level beasts for such a long time and only sustaining this level of injuries is also enough to prove Artoria's strength.
Because of this, Artoria was not afraid, but confused.
I wonder why Luo Zhen stopped.
I wonder why the opponent doesn't continue fighting.
But Luo Zhen ignored Artoria, and even Mash and Artoria [Alter] seemed to no longer respond to Artoria, remaining silent.
At this moment, there was only one person who could stand in front of Artoria.
"Da-da-da-da-"
Amidst the clearly audible footsteps, Bedivere held his silver arm and walked toward Artoria step by step as if dragging his body.
Arturia then noticed Bedivere approaching her and frowned.
no way.
"Do you want to face me alone? The unknown knight."
Arturia asked expressionlessly.
Her words did not make Bedivere react in any way, but made Matthew raise his head.
"The unknown knight?" Matthew asked in shock: "Don't the Lion King remember Lord Bedivere?"
exactly.
The way Arturia looked at Bedivere was as if she was looking at a strange, small and unknown existence. That look was definitely not something she should show to the Knights of the Round Table who once served her.
Arturia seemed to have completely forgotten Bedivere.
However...
"Even if you don't remember me anymore, I still remember you."
Bedivere slowly approached Artoria while staring at her. The emotion in his eyes made Artoria's heart tremble inexplicably.
So said Bedivere.
"I remember your voice."
"I remember your face."
"I remember your appearance."
"I also remember your past and your taste."
"Even though the journey is difficult and long, I always remember everything about you and bring it with me to come to you."
"Yes, I finally see you again."
"king."
Bedivere's voice was filled with relief.
That look made Artoria inexplicably irritable.
This is something very incredible.
You must know that since she was elevated to a god, Artoria has lost all the emotions that humans should have. She has neither anger nor joy. Needless to say, sadness, happiness will no longer occur and is abandoned. Human nature has achieved complete divinity and will never be shaken by external things.
There are very few things that can make Artoria's heart turbulent now, and they are all things that gods should care about, such as the world, such as the planet, rather than individuals and the past. After nearly surviving several times, Artoria only had some thoughts and waves. This shows how difficult it is to make Artoria's heart waver now.
But this nameless and weak knight in front of her made Artoria irritable for some reason.
Moreover, he was still more irritable than ever before.
Such annoyance made Artoria unable to help but speak out.
"Who are you?"
Arturia asked this question.
"Me?" Bedivere smiled bitterly, and then murmured: "I am just a sinner, a sinner who made the wrong choice, which led to everything today."
This is a fact.
"You should not forget me." Bedivere looked directly at Artoria and said: "You should hate me, you should disgust me, you should curse me, you should despise me."
"Because, if it weren't for me, you would never be what you are now and do so many heartbreaking things."
"1,500 years is really a long time."
"Fortunately, I finally see you, King."
As he spoke, Bedivere smiled sincerely.
"Now, I will return what should be returned to you, our beloved King Arthur."
After finishing speaking, a vision happened to Bedivere.
"Zheng!"
I saw that Bedivere's silver arm bloomed with a bright and brilliant light, as if it had finally been unchained and returned to its original form.
This incredible prosthetic leg turned into a sword under everyone's gaze.
A resplendent sword that exudes the dazzling light of stars.
That is a holy sword.
A holy sword that looked familiar to everyone present.
"...!"
Mashu exclaimed.
Yes.
〈Sword of Promise of Victory〉.
What appeared in Bedivere's hand was King Arthur's holy sword - the "Sword of Oath to Victory".
If you look closely, you will see that the appearance of this holy sword is exactly the same as that of the holy sword in Altria's hands. However, Altria's holy sword has reversed attributes. It is completely black. There are also many blood-red veins on the sword, which looks extremely ominous. However, the holy sword in Bedivere's hand is resplendent, extremely gorgeous, and exudes a noble and sacred aura. This aura is completely absent from Artoli. Under Ya's holy spear.
There is no doubt that this is a genuine holy sword.
It is not a reversal, nor is it an imitation, but a genuine holy sword that King Arthur obtained from the Elf in the Lake and used it until the end of his life.
This holy sword was what the legendary King Arthur had been using.
This holy sword is the true form it should have.
Bedivere actually owns this holy sword and even disguises it as his own prosthetic limb.
In other words, Bedivere's Silver Arm is actually King Arthur's Holy Sword.
"That sword..."
Arturia looked at the holy sword in Bedivere's hand, and her expression showed an unprecedented change.
"Woo...!"
Then, as if she had a headache, Artoria covered her head.
At this moment, the memory of being abandoned by Artoria suddenly came to her in one breath.
"ah!"
Arturia couldn't help but scream.
Not only Artoria, but also Mash and everyone in Chaldea stood up in shock.
"Why... ?"
Why does Bedivere hold King Arthur's holy sword
This... what the hell is going on
