In order to become a Heroic Spirit, I had no choice but to cause trouble in history.

"I'm tired... Let me... rest for a bit," she said, her voice trembling.

Chapter 108 I am Spark, Forged into Britain

The alien race has all perished.

Having lost his left arm and enveloped in blood-red, Anno stood alone on the wasteland, swaying from side to side.

Tick.

What fell was not rain, but blood.

The blood wrapped around Anno dripped onto the ground, drop by drop.

The color slowly faded, revealing a thin, pale, and aged face.

But his eyes were exceptionally bright.

Anno slumped to one side, but was caught by someone.

He looked to the side and saw his grandson, Galahad, supporting his right arm.

Galahad's face still had tears that hadn't been wiped away.

“Grandfather… Father…” Galahad choked as he spoke to Anno.

Anno's pupils contracted, but he only let out a long sigh.

He touched Galahad's head; he could no longer speak.

He gestured with his right hand for Galahad to lift him to the king's side.

Apart from the four Knights of the Round Table who remained in Balmides in Camelot, all four of them are here.

Bedivere was bleeding heavily and was so heartbroken that he was already in a state of confusion.

Anno knelt beside Arthur, looking at Arthur's face.

“Uncle Anno…” Artoria looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar face, wanting to say something, but unable to utter a word.

“I’m here, Lia…I’m here…” Anno managed to squeeze out a few words from his throat, but then spat out a mouthful of blood.

But he felt nothing: "Lia... have you really... made this decision...?"

He was referring to the Holy Sword, the source of Artoria's immortality.

"I'm so tired, Uncle Anno." Even though she was talking about something sad, Artoria had a smile on her face.

"I see...I see..." Anuo smiled too, but his withered face made the smile look ugly.

He took seven envelopes from his pocket and handed them to Galahad.

Then, without accepting Galahad's help, he simply stood up on his own, picked up Arthur's holy sword, and limped away.

“Grandfather!” Galahad wanted to chase after him, but saw Anno wave his hand, signaling him not to follow.

Galahad could no longer control his emotions and knelt on the ground, crying.

Those seven envelopes are seven suicide notes that Anno wrote from his youth to the present.

……

I don't know how much time has passed.

Anno, who was already nearing his limit, walked from the hills to the jungle, and from the jungle to the lakeside.

A young man dressed in a white robe sat by the lake.

He looked at the old man, who was nearing the end of his life, with a sorrowful and regretful gaze.

However, Anno didn't care about him at all.

He performed what seemed like a sacred ritual, praying before casting the sword of Excalibur into the lake.

The fairy managed to extend one hand from the lake, caught the holy sword, and then sank back down.

Anno coughed twice and took off his somewhat tattered armor, leaving only his inner lining.

He tidied up the armor and placed it by the lake, then stuck chalk next to it.

Then he just sat by the lake, looking at the water.

The Age of Gods has vanished, the man in white has long since disappeared, and this is just an ordinary lake.

Anno, a Knight of the Round Table, has also left the Round Table.

……

Galahad opened the last suicide note.

The suicide note began with a thorough and scathing critique of Lancelot.

The suicide note ended with a sentence.

I transformed my life into sparks, forging them into Britain...

Chapter 109 Epilogue

Merlin took away King Arthur's sleeping body.

With Britain destroyed, the Round Table naturally dissolved.

Balmides was mortally wounded and died a few days later in Camelot.

Both surviving Knights of the Round Table were also seriously injured.

They buried their companion's body and paid no further attention to Britain, which had fallen into chaos—no, not Britain, but the entire island of Britain.

This island, without a lord, no longer belongs to the Kingdom of Britain.

They relinquished their knighthood, followed in the king's footsteps, and took a proper rest.

Bedivere chose to become an ordinary citizen, but unfortunately, with only one arm and disfigured, his life was not easy. Already severely injured, he struggled in the community for five years before leaving the world with regrets.

Galahad became a traveler, traversing all of Europe with his enormous shield, just like Anor, Merlin, and Arthur in their time, all in search of his grandfather's legacy.

Anno kept the seven suicide notes he wrote with him at all times.

The first suicide note was written by Anno when Merlin threw him into the inhuman realm. It mainly consisted of scolding Merlin. He wrote it on a piece of cloth and put it in an envelope.

The second will was written by Anor in his tent before he followed King Uther to fight Vortigern. At that time, he had just become a knight and was about to face the terrifying dragon.

The third will was written before Anno went alone to the border of Britain to fight against the invading orcs.

The fourth letter was written during a war between Britain and France when Arthur was growing up.

The fifth will was written by King Arthur shortly after his coronation, when he was asked to preside over the two-year War of Chaos.

When the dragon Vortigern invaded Britain for the second time, Anor wrote his sixth will, by which time Anor was already feeling somewhat powerless.

The last letter was written after the Round Table collapsed, when Arthur was mustering his troops for battle.

The seven suicide notes seem to narrate Anno's life.

He came to Britain, seemingly changing something, yet nothing changed at all; Britain was still destroyed, and the king still slept in Avalon.

However, this world has ultimately preserved his deeds and his legend.

His grandson Galahad and the British soldiers who survived that battle will sing his name and praise his deeds.

King Arthur once had a powerful knight named Anno.

He accompanied two kings and watched Britain come to an end.

............

In the void, a burly man silently observed Anno's life.

After Anno died, his soul, or essence, returned to the void, to above the Root.

The burly man silently examined Anno, then tore off a part of the old man Anno.

After a part of Anno was torn off, his whole person underwent a rapid change.

A new left arm grew out, wrinkles faded, beard grew in reverse, and hair became shorter and blacker.

In the end, he reverted to his original form when he returned to the Type-Moon.

17 is old.

The burly man represents the Alaya consciousness, which is the human body's restraining force and the unconscious aggregate of human consciousness. The human's appearance is its appearance.

What was torn from Anno was Anno's "life" in Britain.

That's not a proper way to put it; "tailoring" would be a more accurate term.

Anno, in this part, will be recorded as a Heroic Spirit on the Throne of Heroes.

Written at the end of the volume

The Britannia series has finally come to an end, with Anno's story drawing an imperfect conclusion to Britannia's saga.

Many plot points are highly controversial, and the main character is even more controversial, to the point that many people hope "the main character dies quickly."

I know why everyone wants the main character to leave the stage as soon as possible. This character is not outstanding, does not bring a better ending to Britain, and even changes very little.

But I still wrote it because the protagonist I gave was not a very likable character.

He won't change too much because I don't want the British plot to deviate too much from the original work. My mental capacity and writing skills are not good enough, and I'm afraid I'll just make a mess of things, which will make both the readers and me unhappy.

In Artoria's original Britain, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was separated from her family, but she had no one to rely on.

The queen betrayed, the round table betrayed, the sister betrayed, the son betrayed.

There may be loyal knights, but they are still unable to provide support to Leah due to their status.

Therefore, I created the protagonist.

Actually, at first, my idea was the same as many other authors: to create a lover for Leah. But after I started writing, I discovered something.
