Crossover Anime: Starting with a Life Index, Join the Chat Group

Luo Hao's situation is somewhat similar to hers.

……

"To be honest, I'm not a particularly ambitious person. I just don't want to lose anything or have any regrets, so I have to be strong enough, I have to become powerful enough..."

Luo Hao raised his hand, clenched his fist, and revealed a determined expression.

But this goal is one of endless progress.

How strong is strong enough? How strong is sufficient?

This kind of thing is never something you decide for yourself; it's always changing and constantly evolving.

"it is good!"

Artoria clapped her hands. She felt that Luo Hao's reasons for pursuing power were very legitimate, and that he was not the kind of barbaric person who would do such a thing. His reasons were exactly the same as hers.

For the sake of "protection"!

She could feel a strong sense of responsibility from Luo Hao, which made her highly identify with him.

"Thank you for your recognition. To be honest, some things are easier to say out loud. Miss Artoria, I can sense that you also bear some responsibility. Why don't you speak up? Perhaps we can offer some good solutions?"

Luo Hao naturally reached out and placed his hand on Artoria's shoulder.

At the same time, I felt that the efficiency of the "Life Catalog" had been enhanced.

For beings with a limited difference from Luo Hao, the "Life Catalog" does not necessarily require contact; it can be slowly copied as long as it is within a certain range.

Of course, direct contact is definitely more efficient.

Luo Hao is currently replicating the "Red Dragon Body" from Artoria.

Of course, this was just a side effect. Compared to what was destined to be obtained, having Artoria tell her story and aspirations was the more important thing.

Relationships between people are strengthened through continuous communication.

Whether you are the speaker or the listener, the relationship will naturally improve after each conversation.

At the same time, Luo Hao will be able to more accurately determine Artoria's situation.

"okay!"

When Luo Hao invited her to tell her story, Artoria couldn't help but nod.

There were indeed some things weighing on her mind, and it was a good thing that she could find someone to confide in.

“My full name is Artoria Pendragon, and my teacher’s name is Merry. She has always told me that I am burdened with the mission of defeating the tyrant Vortigern and becoming the King of Britain.”

These words immediately surprised Misaki Shokuhou.

[Mental Mastery]: "Vortigern the Humble King? The King of Britain? You're King Arthur? Wait, Merlin? Shouldn't it be Merlin?"

Misaki Shokuhou's question caused Artoria to also show a puzzled expression.

"King Arthur? I'm not sure, but Merlin is definitely the name my teacher uses outside of school. How did you know that?"

"!!!"

Misaki Shokuhou suddenly stood up, looking completely surprised.

"The legendary King Arthur was actually a girl?"

With the image of the pretty blonde girl from Luo Hao's live stream flashing through her mind, Misaki Shokuhou looked on in disbelief.

"And...Merlin? Merlin was a woman too?"

She felt that her understanding had been severely impacted.

However, she quickly recovered.

"Idiot... the members of this group come from some endless parallel world..."

After making a self-deprecating remark, Misaki Shokuhou calmed down.

The girl before her was most likely not King Arthur of her world, but even so, the possibility was exciting enough.

If there are female King Arthur characters, will there be other female characters as well?

Misaki Shokuhou couldn't help but become curious.

[Artoria]: "@Mental Mastery, why are you suddenly asking these questions, and judging from your tone, it seems you know something about me?"

[Psychological Mastery]: "It's like this, I have a record here of a story that may be similar to your future, called 'The Legend of King Arthur,' which tells the story of Arthur, the illegitimate son of the king, who pulls out the sword of kings, becomes king, and leads Britain to glory."

[Artoria]: "!!! May I take a look?"

Artoria was very curious about this situation.

[Psychological Mastery]: "No problem!"

A large amount of text quickly appeared in the chat group. Misaka Mikoto was using her own thinking to replicate the text from the book into the chat group.

Because the messages in the chat group were all generated directly from my mind, all group members finished reading them in an instant.

"Is that so? Has Britain perished?"

Artoria said with a hint of disappointment.

To be honest, the way Artoria is behaving right now is not what Misaki Shokuhou expected.

She had originally thought that Artoria would be more heartbroken.

But now it seems like it's just so-so? It seems like it was all expected.

Chapter 56 The Tide of Fate (Bonus Chapter for 42,000 Flowers)

It wasn't just something she anticipated; in fact, Artoria knew this ending all along.

The ending of the Arthurian legend from Misaki Shokuhou's world is where her teacher, Merry, tells her about the future.

Therefore, Artoria had long been mentally prepared for the fall of Britain.

Of course, being mentally prepared is one thing, but whether or not you accept it is another.

Artoria was not willing to accept her fate so easily; she wanted Britain to survive for hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of years, or even forever.

That's why she worked so hard.

If it were the original her, perhaps she would have tried everything but to no avail. But now she has this chat group, a link in her destiny that is not part of her original fate.

Having come to a new world, acquired more treasures, and become stronger, she might just be able to save Britain.

To save Britain, she needs everyone's help.

Artoria slowly said, "Since the age of five, I have understood my mission, learned swordsmanship and etiquette, participated in farming, and was taught by my teacher, Melly, in my dreams. I have learned the mindset of a king, and I have never slacked off for more than ten years. Although I have not yet become a king, I believe that no one is more suitable to be the king than I am."

“I know the fate of Britain. According to that girl Merry, it was the tide of destiny, a force that no human can resist. But I am not reconciled to it, nor am I willing to accept that fate. I want to ascend the throne. My years of study and hard work were not for the purpose of welcoming this fate.”

"I want Britain to transcend this fate; I want to truly lead Britain to glory."

"But... I'm not afraid of being laughed at, but to this day, I have absolutely no idea what to do, not even a clue."

Artoria wore a dejected expression; none of her knowledge or information could change the fate of Britain's destruction.

"There's nothing we can do about it. That's just how it is for those caught in the tide of orders. Your era destined you to be unable to access information that would change the times, but things are different now..."

Luo Hao smiled and said, "Although this chat group is also suspicious, it is by no means a product that can be interfered with by the fate of one party. Here, you have met us, us from different worlds and with different knowledge."

"By jumping out of the tide of your original era and looking down at the waves of fate from the shore, you gain the possibility of transcending fate."

[Psychological Manipulation]: "Wow, Mr. Luo Hao, I never expected you to say something so cool. I thought you were just a womanizer!"

"??? This is slander! How dare you defame me? I, Luo, am a gentleman."

[Psychological Understanding]: "I think a decent person wouldn't take advantage of someone's anxiety to touch a girl's body."

"...Don't be so ambiguous. It's just a shoulder, and it's mainly about which one..."

Luo Hao reluctantly let go. After all, having experienced high-speed downloads, he couldn't stand regular downloads. However, since he had been called out, it wasn't appropriate to continue.

"Ah! It's alright."

Artoria blinked and said in a cute, innocent way.

She doesn't think of herself entirely as a girl, and for her, things like putting her arm around someone's shoulder don't feel like a big deal.

"Oh……"

Hearing Artoria say that, Luo Hao naturally followed suit.

[Psychological Analysis]: "...You're so easily manipulated by scumbags, both physically and mentally!"

"Haha, don't worry, I'll help Lily spot the scumbags."

Luo Hao revealed a refreshing smile.

"...You're the scumbag I was talking about!"

Misaki Shokuhou's lips twitched slightly as she mentally complained. She was extremely shocked by Luo Hao's shameless continued advances and even his confident promise to help identify scumbags.

What kind of clueless person would say something like that?

"Oh... then I'll leave it to you, Mr. Luo Hao."

Artoria didn't quite understand what "scumbag" meant, but judging from his appearance, he wasn't a good person. Luo Hao said he could help her distinguish them, so she felt at ease.

"Don't ask him! You might end up getting pregnant..."
