The android girl will not dream of the fairy knight sister

　"I have a question."

　Sieg gently raised his hand and looked at Holmes.

　"What about Zelritch? I don't think a magician of the Second Law would be completely incapable of countermeasures. Even if he in this world didn't notice, Zelritch in other worlds would have reacted..."

　"The second magician, Mage Marshal Zelrich, that's a good question. Miss Sieg, but it's a pity..."

　Holmes shook his head.

　"The Three-pointed Hermes has no record of this...so this question may have to wait until the future to be answered."

　"Then, the other issue we are going to discuss is still the top priority—"

　Before he could finish his words, the lights in the entire Atlas Courtyard began to flicker.

　"It seems there's a problem with the energy supply..."

　The girl blinked, then stretched out her hand and placed it against the wall. Magic circuits began to extend from her palm, slowly covering the entire Atlas Courtyard.

　Immediately afterwards, the wall in front of the girl, which was touched by her palm, began to ripple like liquid, and the wall began to bulge continuously, as if something was about to emerge.

　The next moment, a magic furnace emerged from the ripples, and the wall returned to calm and stability, except that there was one more magic furnace attached to the surface.

　The girl removed her hand from the wall, and the extended magic circuit instantly retracted into her body.

　Then, the girl directly installed a small magic furnace that had been previously installed on Otota into the large magic furnace on the wall.

　With a slight mechanical sound, the flickering lights regained their brightness, and all systems began to operate at the set power again.

　"That should be all right..."

　Holmes held his pipe in his mouth, his eyes fixed on the magic furnace made by the girl.

　Beyond the current equipment that humans can create...

　Holmes shook his head slightly, then looked at the three knights standing aside.

　"It's essential for you all to know the true nature of the Holy Spear, Longomyniad, wielded by the Lion King. Of course, I've only heard of it before, and never witnessed it in person... However, you've likely witnessed the Holy Spear's attack firsthand, so you should have a deeper understanding."

　As Holmes spoke, he

　Looked at the three

　259

　Pointed Hermes.

　"Hermes, show us the truth..."

　The light on the surface of the Three-pointed Hermes kept floating, and in a moment it sorted out all the information it could find and projected it out.

　Holmes looked at the information in front of him in silence for a moment, then turned to look at the Knights Group.

　"What exactly is the holy spear wielded by the Lion King? How much do you know about it?"

　Bedivere frowned.

　"I'm sorry, but I don't know the true details. The King possesses many treasures besides the Holy Sword, and the Holy Lance is one of them. However, the Knights of the Round Table were not told the details. Merlin simply called the Holy Lance the 'Tower of the End.'"

　"A pillar of light standing on the distant sea west of the British Isles, a tower standing at the end of the world, beyond the horizon."

　"Tower? But isn't that a gun? When little Sieg broke the Holy Lance before, that looked like a gun, didn't it?"

　Holmes shook his head at Sanzang.

　"The reason for this description is that there are two Holy Spears, Miss Sanzang. One is a huge tower that pierces the world. This is the Holy Spear's existence given a form to show us that the Holy Spear still exists."

　"The end that cannot be reached... is simply inaccessible to human power... because the end has no end, it will continue to grow..."

　The girl said as she looked towards Mordred.

　"Ah, Sieg is right, so Father... The Lion King chose another way. As I said before, he would converge the world, let the Tower at the End remain the destination, and converge the starting point and overlap. But then, only that tower would remain in the world..."

　Holmes nodded, then continued to look at Sanzang.

　"The other Holy Lance is like a projection of the tower, the one wielded by the Lion King. It can utilize the tower's power. However, due to some reason, its power output has increased, so that even the Holy Sword, which should have been of the same specifications, cannot withstand its power. Is that correct, Miss Sieg?"

　The girl was silent for a moment, then she touched the bracelet on her wrist and nodded, agreeing with Holmes.

　"The Lion King... his inner self has been completely transformed, his humanity suppressed. The Holy Lance itself is the dominant force, so the power unleashed is even greater. All attacks are launched through the Tower of the End and then overlap with the Holy Lance in the Lion King's hands..."

　"Ms. Sieg, can that magic sword really block the attack of the Holy Lance?"

　"Kill the emperor..."

　The girl smiled at Mashu after hearing the worry in her tone, then stretched out her wrist and handed the Slash Emperor in bracelet form to Mashu.

　"No problem... If this demonic sword can really kill that creature with one strike as my future self described... then the so-called Holy Lance will be nothing more than a piece of cake..."

　"What's the price?"

　Mashu slowly walked up to the girl and looked at the bracelet on her wrist.

　"There will be no side effects this time. I assure you, Mashu. The Emperor Slash is a magic sword that increases its power and size through mass conversion. As long as you have a large source of conversion, you can use it... If it uses magic power for conversion, Mashu should be relieved, right?"

　After a moment of silence, Mashu reached out and rubbed the girl's cheek, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.

　"If that's really the case... I'm willing to believe Miss Zig..."

　The girl blinked without saying anything.

　A tentacle extended from the bracelet, swaying gradually left and right in front of Mashu and the girl, and then, as if sensing something, it suddenly twisted and "looked" in the direction of Lancelot.

　The tentacles swayed gently, the tops twisting and changing shape, then retracted back into the bracelet.

　-

　It's just a magic sword with a somewhat bottomless appetite and has no interest in anything else.

　Its job is to eat well, drink well, grow bigger, and then cut some weird-looking things.

　It once had a dignified magic sword, until it was directly consumed by the enormous magic power and even didn't want to eat it anymore.

　Rather than following others and eating dirt that never fills them up, it prefers the high-purity magic that fills them up.

　Looking at it this way, there is only one answer.

　It's just a magic sword and doesn't feel anything about messy things.

　It will follow whoever is good to it.

　First it was Ado Aiden, but he died, perishing along with the one he had severed. Then it transformed into a seed, which was picked up by a girl and brought back to Atlas Court. From then on, it kept traveling back and forth between the Star Inner Sea and Atlas Court.

　Its consciousness was born at that time, and the name "Slaying Emperor" was given by the girl.

　They stayed together like this for countless days and nights.

　The girl is accumulating magic power, and the man named Merlin is weaving magic.

　Until now, it still remembers the girl's voice, asking it to turn back into a seed and wait.

　260

　.

　After that, everything changed and returned to silence.

　Now, it’s still that girl, and it’s still that familiar magic.

　How much time passed in between?

　It obeyed the girl's orders and waited until the familiar magic power surged into its body again.

　The girl's appearance had not changed, and her nature remained the same.

　But there are more people around me.

　Compared to the girl who was accompanied by only one person, she now felt like she was surrounded by people.

　Looks like it was successful...

　So as a thank you for your company... let's cut some interesting things...

　But before that...

　Could the man in purple armor over there please control his gaze? It's terrifying... What are you trying to do by staring at a magic sword so covetously?

　Is it wrong for the magic sword to stay with its master?

　It just consumes some magic power, it's not like it's not working.

　Fairy Knight: Chapter 31: The Truth

　"Then I have another question. If the Holy City is to select those who can enter it, then why is Camelot now an empty city?"

　The girl smiled at Mashu, then turned her gaze back to Holmes and asked the question that had been bothering her for a long time.

　Countless buildings were destroyed in the battle between her and Gawain. Aside from the Knights of Purification, no living creatures could be seen or felt in the entire Holy City.

　Even if only a few people were chosen each time for the Holy Pull, and their number seemed insignificant when distributed within Camelot, it shouldn't be so far that not a single breath could be sensed.

　Whether from the perspective of life reactions or smell, the entire Camelot is an empty city.

　Where did that person go?

　"For this problem, we still need to start with the Holy Lance."

　Holmes took a short drag from his pipe, and then remained silent for a moment, his mouth curling with smoke.

　"The Lion King planned to use the Holy Lance as a tower. With the power of the Holy Lance, she built Camelot, the city at the end of the world, and then used it to summon humans for selection."

　"Because the world is being destroyed, the mountain people are elusive and difficult to find, and the territory of the Sun King Osmandis is covered by sandstorms and difficult to reach. So, people have only one goal left—"

　Bedivere listened to Holmes' words and slowly closed his eyes, while the arm holding the Silver Arm continued to exert force.

　"The Holy City, Camelot..."

　A slightly hoarse voice came out of Bedivere's mouth.

　All of this was caused by him, all because he failed to return the holy sword.

　Holmes nodded and continued to explain to Ziggy:

　"The so-called Holy Lance doesn't select honest and upright humans, but rather selects those who, no matter what happens, will do only the right thing. According to the data and predictions provided by Hermes, the Holy Lance itself can only accommodate the souls of approximately 500 people."

　The girl blinked lightly, and an answer flashed through her mind.

　The inner sea of ​​the stars, the inner side of the world, the world of fantasy species.

　A way to be able to witness the existence of the soul.

　"Then, take the souls of these five hundred people and wait until the world is completely closed before entering the inner side of the world..."

　The girl spoke slowly, adding the next answer for Holmes.

　"That's correct. Although the Holy City was built overnight, that's not a problem. The city is the Holy Lance itself. Those sent into the Holy Lance will abandon their bodies, leaving only their souls to be housed within it."

　"Then, the tower in the center of the Holy City is the Tower of the End, and Camelot is wrapped in layers of the Holy Lance's shell. Those inside cannot leave, and those outside cannot enter..."

　The girl stroked the Slash Emperor on her wrist and kept adding to it.

　"That's right. Although the Lion King claims that he is protecting the pure, he actually imprisons them to prevent them from escaping. He imprisons them in a way that makes it impossible for them to escape."

　Lancelot remained silent with a gloomy expression, and kept exerting force on the hand holding Arondette's waist.

　The same goes for Mordred.

　The truth that they had never been told was now completely revealed.

　They are all accomplices, accomplices in the murder of the entire world.

　In order to prevent the complete destruction of humanity by the Human Burning, the Lion King chose to destroy the world first, and returned to the inner sea of ​​the star with valuable souls, leaving behind a piece of land that had been burned to continue burning.

　Bedivere listened to the words spoken by the girl and Holmes with a painful expression on his face, and a heart-wrenching pain was coming from his chest all the time.

　"The humans chosen and taken in by the Holy Spear no longer have the concept of life or death. The Holy Spear is like a specimen display cabinet, where people have no room for life activities. All people are only managed as "elements of good humanity" and compressed in the tower as ideals.

　Humanity

　261

　(The specimen) is displayed in the window, accompanying the Lion King forever."

　The value of human existence...

　This is a choice made to protect one's own people.
