I remembered.
Finally remembered.
The holy spear in her hand shattered like glass, and the holy sword seemed to return to its original owner. The moment it returned to its hand, Artoria remembered everything.
Reminds me of my past as King Arthur.
Remembering the original intention of pulling out the sword from the stone.
Remember the reason to keep fighting.
Thinking of the death that passed by inadvertently.
When all these memories returned, Artoria was no longer as shaken and confused as before. Instead, she recovered with a calmer attitude than when she was a god.
All this happened because Arturia remembered that name.
"Bedivere, my most loyal knight."
Arturia finally remembered the name.
I have been wandering in the world for thousands of years, thinking that this was my end. Who would have thought that in the end, it would be you who gave me peace and rest.
"You have returned the holy sword intact."
After 1,500 years, King Arthur's deathbed finally took shape.
"Thanks a lot."
Arturia silently praised the deceased knight and opened her eyes.
... ... ... ...
Unconsciously, the end of the world disappeared.
Everyone returned to the audience hall on the top floor of the royal city. Standing in this bright and vast royal hall, no one spoke.
"Mr. Bedivere..."
Mashu lowered his eyes, sad tears streaming down his moist eyes.
"Well done, Lord Bedivere..."
Arturia (Alter) had been looking at the direction Bedivere was passing away, and she murmured like this.
"..."
Luo Zhen was silent. The brilliant wings behind his back and the golden light in his eyes had disappeared. The extremely powerful high-level magic power in his body was like melting snow, turning back into a magic power comparable to the scale of the planet.
Everyone just watched this scene quietly, as if they were paying tribute to the loyal knight.
Even the people in Chaldea couldn't say a word for a while. Even if according to the observation results, the singularity was being repaired, none of them could be happy.
Facing the unprecedentedly twisted sixth singularity, Luo Zhen and his party won at the expense of one person.
Judging from the results, this may be gratifying, but no one thinks this is something worth being happy about.
Including Artoria.
"... It seems that I lost this time."
The faint words echoed in this space.
Everyone followed the sound, and then they saw Arturia standing in front of the throne, looking down at everyone as before.
The difference is that Artoria's armor is in tatters, and the holy spear in her hand has disappeared, replaced by a holy sword blooming with the light of the stars.
Yes.
After 1,500 years, the Holy Sword finally returned to Artoria's hands.
"Although my divinity is still there, my power has disappeared along with the Holy Spear. This Holy City is about to disappear together with the Holy Spear. In terms of the result, there is no doubt that it is my defeat."
Arturia said this in an unprecedentedly calm tone.
The person who responded to Artoria was the existence of her fellow King Arthur.
"It's true that the Lion King no longer exists. Now, here is the real King Arthur, right?"
Artoria [Alter] said this to Artoria.
In exchange for this sentence.
"Of course." Artoria said calmly: "I am King Arthur, the King of Britain, the pinnacle of the Knights of the Round Table, the Son of the Dragon who should have died in the forest. I wish I could have remembered this earlier."
Saying that, Artoria glanced at Artoria [Alter].
"However, I do not admit that you and I are the same existence, another King Arthur who fell into evil ways."
Arturia actually said that.
"The same goes for me. No matter how much you break away from the human body and become an elf in the sky or a god, I will never admit that you and I are the same existence."
Artoria (Alter) said this in a tone that suited me exactly.
Both of them are King Arthur, but neither of them is King Arthur.
After all, one of them has become dark and the other has become deified. Even though there is no doubt that they are King Arthur himself, they are not the original, purest and most essential King Arthur.
Symbolizing the two different paths of King Arthur, reaching the end, that is Artoria and Artoria [Alter].
Therefore, even if they are both King Arthur, neither of them will admit that the other person is the same as themselves.
"However, there is one thing in common."
Arturia said this calmly.
"That's right." Artoria (Alter) did not deny it, but nodded her head and said: "No matter which path he takes, the most loyal knight among us is still him after all. The one who belongs to me is Before he passed away, the one-armed boy cried so sadly that he didn't even want to return the holy sword."
That's it.
Only this point is the same no matter which King Arthur it is.
Whether he ends up falling into darkness and becoming the King of Evil, or sublimating into a natural elf and becoming a god, I believe that the knight will stay with King Arthur until his death.
This is the first and last knight - Bedivere.
Artoria turned her attention to Luo Zhen.
Luo Zhen also raised his eyes and looked at Artoria.
The two looked at each other in silence.
Immediately, Arturia raised a hand.
"Zheng..."
With a flash of light, three golden urns appeared in Artoria's hands.
Without saying a word, Arturia threw the golden urn without a trace of nostalgia and threw it in the direction of Luo Zhen.
"!"
Mashu exclaimed.
Luo Zhen's eyes flashed, he stretched out his hand, and used the "Telepathy" technique to turn the magic power into telepathy, wrap it around the three golden urns, and take them into his hands.
"This is your trophy, take it."
Saying these words, Arturia stood up from the throne, walked down directly, and under the gaze of Luo Zhen and his party, walked forward without looking away, passed by everyone, and walked out the door. .
"You... where are you going?"
Matthew reacted and asked quickly.
To this, Artoria only replied with one sentence.
"Go where I need to go and do what I need to do."
Arturia said so.
The goddess of the Holy Spear held the Holy Sword, turned around, and looked at Luo Zhen.
"I have indeed lost, there is no doubt about that, but that does not mean you have won."
Arturia actually said such words.
This is not about showing off, nor about refusing to admit defeat, but a fact.
A fact told by Arturia.
"Even now, I still believe that mankind has no future and that human history is destined to be destroyed."
Arturia said this expressionlessly.
"Of the seven unique points, only the last one remains."
"But you can't get past that singularity."
"Because, there is a disaster there that is far worse than the Magic King."
