The immortal death knight failed to achieve the ending of the heroic spirit

Chapter 204 Act [-] The Dream of a Perpetual Empire

The vast surface of the lake reflected sparkling waves, and the not-so-bright but exceptionally warm sunlight shone through the thick clouds on the dark surface of the lake.

The silver armored knight embraced the shining king sword with his only remaining arm, but tears flowed from his eyes first.

——Do you have to give up?
Sad emotions welled up in his heart. Isn't this natural? This is the last order given by the king, the wise King Arthur. As the last knight, how can he disobey the king's will?

However, returning the holy sword also means that he will personally end the life of his beloved king.

The surface of the lake churned up like his inner thoughts, and the knight named Bedivere bit his lower lip, unwilling to relax until blood was oozing out.

'God, why leave such difficult problems to me to choose. '

Bedivere touched the sword in the lake tremblingly, and the lake water surged up to the golden sword body, and the knight watched in pain as the sword body disappeared into the sea water.

He is the most inconspicuous knight, neither has Tristan's benevolent chivalry character, nor Lancelot's superb martial arts, and he is ashamed to be inferior to Gao Wenqing in terms of sincerity to the king.

"Sure enough, I still can't just sit back and watch the king die like this."

Bedivere lowered his head, unstoppable tears fell from the corners of his eyes, he grabbed the king's sword and stood up, thinking about rushing back to the king's side again, but his feet were firmly glued to the ground.

A palm covered with a dark and ominous atmosphere wrapped around his ankle, and the pattern-like black clings to Bedivere's ankle, which has no thickness but does restrict his movement.

The shadow-like black spread along his ankles upwards, covering his torso in an instant.

As if he finally realized something, Bedivere controlled the single arm holding the sword and raised it high, but it was just a drop in the bucket after all.

bang-

Wang Jian fell to the ground, and was dragged toward the depths of the forest by several slender black palms.

"Shadow magic...Your Highness Morgan, you—"

Facing Bedivere's eyes, a figure slowly walked out of the dense forest, with white hair and red pupils, and a wicked smile on his face.

A woman—it would be more appropriate to call her a young girl, her height only reached Bedivere's chest.At this time, the other party was playing with the bright sword of vowed victory in one hand, and holding a small brown book in the other hand, and his eyes never fell on Bedivere.

"I'm sorry, I just thought Morgan's magic was more convenient, so I borrowed it. I'm not her." The girl said, and she suddenly closed the book in her hand. With a muffled sound, the book exploded out of thin air, and she Taking a few steps closer to Bedivere, he controlled the shadow that wrapped Bedivere's body and forcibly broke off the raised arm of the other party.

Bedivere stared unblinkingly at the girl in front of him with his mouth wide open, but he couldn't make the slightest sound.

"Finally I can touch your hand without tiptoeing." The girl stuffed Wang Jian back into Bedivere's palm, and intimately helped Bedivere hold it tightly one by one, and finished all this. , the girl stepped back obediently, and she lifted her dress with both hands and bent over to salute Bedivere: "Don't blame me, I just made the right choice for you."

He snapped his fingers lightly, Bedivere's body trembled uncontrollably, he turned stiffly to face the lake behind him, and jumped down.

The lake instantly submerged Bedivere's tiny body, and the girl watched the scene with her hands behind her back until the lake became calm again.

She easily raised the corners of her lips, so that the entrusted matter would be resolved smoothly.She breathed the slightly damp fresh air in the forest after a long time, and the girl looked at the half of the sky dyed bright red by the setting sun in the distance, and let out a long breath.

But then she was taken aback again, and turned around with some hesitation to look at the dark forest behind her.

"Hey?"

……

The body gradually turned cold, and the vision became no longer clear, and the feeling of death was so approaching.

Arthur lowered his head slowly, the shattered golden hair on his forehead blocked his sight, and the sounds of birds and insects in his ears gradually became quieter, only the piercing hole on his chest caused by Mordred The slight sound of the wounded blood dripping on the ground drop by drop was extremely real.

'Royalty, what an incredible thing. '

Arthur thought, with a wry smile from the corner of his blood-stained mouth. It could turn father and son against each other, and make a close friend betray him, but he didn't regret pulling out the sword in the stone.

At least, he established a huge kingdom that no one had imagined before. At least under his rule, the civilians under the Camelot Kingdom would not suffer from war.

But it is impossible to say that he has no regrets.

'If I could, if I allowed it, I would really like to make Camelot last forever. '

The seeds of ambition took root in the dying body, but they could not absorb the nutrients that sprouted.Bedivere has returned the holy sword, and now his body has entered the final countdown to life.

"I can help you make your wish come true."

A strong golden light suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Even if he closed his eyes, he couldn't block the light and heat in the light. The voice was extremely clear, as if it came directly into Arthur's brain.

Eternal Sleep was disturbed, but Arthur was not annoyed at all. He opened his eyes, and only saw a small figure squatting in front of him in the light and shadow.

——Is it a child who strayed into the battlefield?

Thinking of this, Arthur's eyes were full of tenderness. He tried to comfort the child in front of him with a hoarse voice, but a cold finger pressed against his lips.

"You can always have such great patience with strangers."

This time he did hear the familiar voice that he had been thinking about day and night, and a warm feeling was transmitted to his whole body along his fingers. The chill of death subsided instantly, and his sight regained focus.

"You are……"

He saw the girl in front of him clearly, but his pupils began to tremble.

"Long time no see, dear King Arthur." She squatted in front of Arthur, entangled her silver-white hair with one hand, and stared at the dying man in front of her with a smile in her wine-red eyes: "It's strange, isn't it?" , the person who was clearly killed by you appeared in front of you alive."

"Saltysh...Your Excellency..."

"I can fulfill your wish and make Camelot an enduring and prosperous country." She smiled and stared at the king who was strangled by the throat and could not speak a word.

Arthur's face was flushed due to shortness of breath. The girl admired the scene in front of her, and there was a faint fluorescent light on the arm she was pinching the other party.

"But I have to take something... how about your life?"

The arm strengthened by the magic exerted force suddenly, and Arthur's body gradually stopped struggling until finally he stopped breathing completely.

The girl watched this scene calmly, unable to speak for a long time.

"You don't mind."

She let go of her hand, and Arthur, who had lost his voice, slowly fell to the side.

"You won't mind." Minako closed her eyes, she stood up and said to herself, "This is what you want to keep at the expense of me...your desire."
