I Will Always Be a Partner of Justice

"I memorized all your words, and I thought about how you handled things. You are the ideal king in my mind, and I will always follow your back." Artoria said.

"I am far from being an ideal king... However, you can learn from me, but don't imitate me. People are different, and the things they encounter are also different, so the most important thing is to be flexible. ’” Shirou said.

"I understand, my king." Arturia nodded, and said: "To understand others, to understand others, to understand people's hearts. So now I am very grateful to Alquite, it is she who opened my restricted inner shackles .”

"Oh? Has this kind of thing happened again?" Shirou was full of surprise. Alquette never mentioned this matter, and he didn't even know about it.

In other words, this is a small matter between Alquitd and Artoria, a small matter between friends, so Shirou was not told.

This is also understandable. When it comes to major matters and state affairs, Shirou will never allow anyone to conceal his information, but he is not an old woman or a busybody, so he has no interest in gossip or meddling in other people's private affairs.

However, it is a good thing that Alquite opened Artoria's psychological shackles.After all, the most difficult thing for Artoria is that her emotions are limited.

Restricted psychological and emotional, on the one hand, it strengthens rationality, but on the other hand, it is not easy to express one's emotions. It is naturally excellent to be a general who can fight well, but as a king, he does not understand people's hearts.

And Artoria, whose psychological restrictions were opened, honestly moved Shirou a little.

Of course, it's not the heartbeat between men and women, but the heartbeat of wanting to hand over the inheritance rights to Artoria.

He has never wanted to hand over the inheritance rights to Arturia, because Artoria cannot open her heart, and what he knows about Artoria's ending, so he doesn't want to give it to Artoria.

But now, Artoria has shown better aptitude than Morgan.

Shirou hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Al, let me ask you. If you, as a king, have a knight who is absolutely trustworthy and unsuspecting, as a metaphor, it is like this king and you. Then as a king, how do you prevent you That knight who absolutely trusted you, betrayed you... What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Why are you sweating all over your head?"

Shirou looked at the trembling Artoria strangely.

"I... I, I, I will not betray the king..." Artoria said with trembling lips.

"Of course I know." Shirou nodded and said, "I'm asking you, how do you prevent it?"

Arturia hesitated for a moment, and said, "If it's someone I absolutely trust...shouldn't do anything to betray me."

Shirou smiled and said: "Ah, never trust people's words. There are many bad people in the world, more cunning people, and countless people who can deceive people. To be a king, you must listen to both and not be partial. More importantly Yes, don't think too much of others!"

"If you listen to one side, you will be dark, and if you listen to both, you will be clear. Even the most trustworthy person must remain suspicious. And this may be the most painful thing to be a king. But in this way, unless your subordinates betray you unanimously, you will not be deceived."

Shirou smiled and said: "However, this is also impossible. As a king, his subordinates betrayed unanimously, and they were assassinated long ago, or kicked off the throne, so why bother to deceive the king."

"Although the psychological shackles have been opened, you are still too simple and straightforward. There are still many things to learn. At least, you must learn to deceive people." Shirou said with a smile.

"You...you are right." Artoria lowered her head.

……

After a few more days of rest in Taylor Bill, Shirou plans to go back tomorrow.

It's just that in the past few days, Merlin has been a bit of an eyesore, wearing that magical girl outfit, dangling around in front of him, which made him a little upset.

But this guy also provoked the jeweler for the sake of Camelot, so as the king, Shirou put up with him for a while.

"Speaking of which, why didn't you see the child you saw a few days ago?" Shirou asked.

Merlin was bitten by a baby who was waiting to be fed. He could remember that funny scene for a lifetime.

"I've been carried away~☆" Ruby said.

"Oh." Shirou didn't lift his head.

Merlin glanced at Kai, and then asked: "Wang, you are not going to ask, whose child is this?"

"Al and I's child." Shirou said.

"Huh? Wang, you really—"

Before Merlin finished speaking, Shirou sneered and said, "I guess you would say that. The same trick, do you think you can lie to me for the fifth time? The first time is Morgan, the second time is Scarha... the fourth time The first time was Gareth, and now it's Al. Not bad, who is going to be the sixth time?"

Merlin is the essence of all deceptions. He has deceived Kay, Morgan, Guinevere, Scathach, and countless goblins. Basically, the Knights of the Round Table have been deceived by him.

Even he has been fooled a few times... After pacifying Vortigern, Shirou was very worried about Morgan, but this guy hugged the people's child and ran over to fool him that it was his child, scaring his face Pale, he pointed at his face and laughed, and finally he called Kai to kill him.

Everyone in the knights knows that Merlin's mouth is a deceitful ghost.

He has been deceived a lot, besides Alquite who can be easily fooled, even Galahad has begun to guard against Merlin's words, so Shirou will naturally not be easily fooled.

"You can't even use Morgan now. I have already investigated clearly. You still have to reflect on how to strengthen your deception ability. This king is looking forward to the day when you can fool me around." Shirou said.

Merlin: "..."

"By the way, which noble family does that child belong to?" Shirou said.

"Ms. Polina's." Artoria looked up at Shirou and said.

"Why does this name sound familiar?"

Kai said: "My lord, have you forgotten? During the days when we were in the manor, the lady who wooed my father often came to visit Lily and me, but you didn't want to talk at that time, so you and She hasn't had much contact."

"Oh... That lady, I remember, she often comes to deliver apples, food, and condolences to Al." Shirou nodded clearly, "It seems that the lady has also formed an I have a family of my own, and I even have children.”

Merlin interrupted abruptly: "But her husband abandoned her and the child and went to a foreign country! Abandoning his wife and son, he is a complete scum! That man is very cruel, cold, and heartless. Most importantly, he does not As a human being, I couldn't help but want to kick him to death a long time ago! Bastard, bastard, scum!"

Shirou was surprised, and asked: "That lady's pursuit is quite high...but is the object so bad in the end?"

"Yeah! When I saw that man a long time ago, I couldn't help but want to slap him twice, knock him to the ground, kick his ass hard, and hit his head with a stick! Then grab his hair and forcefully Pull! In the end, kick him to the ground, stomp on his stomach hard, and tell him what it means to respect people and what it means to treat people well!" Merlin said.

Ageguiwen said calmly: "Master Meilin, your personal performance can be done here. My king came all the way here, not to see your funny performance, but to inspect the heir. My king also has There are many important matters, please don't harass my king!"

Kai said with a gloomy face: "That's right. And Pinos is indeed bad, but it's not worse than you, a bastard who replaced my name and provoke goblins, right? We need to have a good chat."
