Dark Soul Moon

Artoria wanted to answer: "Ash he..."

"Tattoo!"

Footsteps came from the darkness, and everyone looked there in unison.

The scarlet lion knight walked out of the darkness, as if he had just stepped out of a sea of ​​blood.

The blades of the swords and guns were covered with traces of blood.

The militia captain's breath was stagnant, and fear flashed in his eyes.

After all, Ember's shape at this time was really terrifying.

A faint flame was ignited on his body, and all the blood was removed.

"Artoria, Kai, let's go." He said indifferently.

"Huh? Ashes, what about these villagers?"

Arturia asked anxiously.

"The Saxon soldiers who blocked the village have been killed by me."

The emotionless tone, coupled with the terrifying appearance before, made the villagers look at him with a little fear.

The opponent is simply a monster in human skin.

"Knight Princess, and this one...you don't need to worry about us, we've made preparations before."

The militia captain said with a wry smile.

This time the Saxon offensive was unexpectedly hopeless, making their previous preparations completely useless.

The captain of the militia also didn't understand, is their village worthy of being treated like this by the Saxons?

Or... He looked at Ashes, Artoria, Kai and the others, with complex expressions flashing in his eyes.

Arturia noticed the complicated gaze of the militia captain, and after thinking about it for a while, she roughly knew what the other party was thinking.

Then, her expression darkened.

At this moment, a little girl stepped forward timidly.

Her mother came in a hurry and wanted to take her away.

"Thank you, sister," she said, sincerely.

Artoria raised her head and looked at the little girl.

She knelt down and touched the little girl's head.

"Sister, you saved my mother and me, and I am very grateful to you."

"...a matter of duty." Artoria replied.

Those Saxons may have come for them, and these villagers were caught in the water.

Thinking of this, guilt flashed in Artoria's heart.

"Sister, are you a knight?"

The little girl looked innocent.

"I'm not a knight yet." Arturia shook her head.

"Then sister, you will definitely become a great knight in the future!"

The little girl sent her most sincere blessings, because in her heart, the knight is the greatest person in the world.

"..."

Arturia stared blankly at the little girl, and slowly, a smile appeared on her face.

"it is good."

She patted the little girl's head.

At this time, the little girl's mother took her away and kept bowing down to apologize.

Kai wiped the blood-stained knight's sword dry with a cloth, and reinserted it into the scabbard.

He put his head in his hands, "Sister, how does it feel to be thanked?"

"...It feels good, Brother Kai."

Artoria was silent for a while before replying.

"Then continue to act according to your own ideas, sister."

Kai's tone was somewhat meaningful.

"Yes."

Ashes just stayed aside and didn't speak.

This experience is to let Artoria grow, not only in strength, but also in mentality.

She is still a little immature now, and needs to be transformed through experience, Ashes thought.
