Morgan was speechless.

She knew she lost.

But she refused to admit defeat.

"Thank you, Altria."

Ian responded to the girl.

"I'm so lucky to be understood by you."

"I--"

The sound stopped suddenly.

Miracles are not something that can last forever.

Disappearances like this are actually a matter of course.

They all felt that he just didn't want to bring it up.

But at least——

His traces returned to this world in another form.

Even though only two people witnessed it, it is still a priceless treasure.

"Morgan."

Altria looked at the empty forest, tears falling from her eyes.

"Do you remember him?"

"I've never forgotten." Morgan's voice was already filled with sobs, "He was the only one who dared to disobey me like this."

"That--"

Altria wiped the tears from her eyes.

"Come here more often in the future."

"Maybe I'll see him again someday."

"You don't have to tell me that I am going to do this. There is no way I will give him to you." Morgan stopped feeling sad.

"Never... ever."

【You are no longer forgotten by this world. 】

【This is a rare and short-lived miracle. 】

[Altria brought Mordred to live in this forest. ]

[She tells this adopted daughter of Morgan your story all the time, as if you were right beside her.]

[This aroused Mordred's curiosity.]

"Mother, what is your relationship with that man called Ian?"

"You're always telling him stories."

The child's curious gaze made Altria fall into deep thought.

"If you want to ask what the relationship is..."

"That--"

“Probably my hero.”

"Your hero?!" Mordred blinked his blue eyes that were almost identical to Morgan's.

"Has he ever done anything amazing?"

"Yeah." Altria nodded.

“He saved me.”

"Wow--!"

The silver-haired Mordred rubbed his hands ready to fight.

"Then I must meet him if I have the chance!"

"Yeah...I thought so too."

Altria looked at Mordred with a hint of smile in her eyes.

[According to her thoughts, Altria returned Excalibur and Avalon to the fairy in the lake.]

[As for the Excalibur Galatine that she gave to Gawain, she could only euphemistically express that it could not be returned for the time being.]

【But the Lady of the Lake doesn't seem to mind all this. 】

[This surprised her a little.]

[But she didn't dwell on it for too long—because there were more important things to do.]

[She began to teach Mordred as a mother.]

[This is something she has never encountered in her life so far. ]

[But Altria felt great joy from it. ]

[She probably understood what happiness as a "human" was all about.]

[These changes were observed by Morgan who visited the forest again and again.]

[But the miracle did not happen again. ]

[Until the end of her life, Altria never saw you again. ]

[She died on the grass in the back garden where you once explored the secrets together, with half an apple in her hand.]

【And the person who buried her was Morgan. 】

"King, what title should be engraved on her tombstone?"

Bedivere was in a dilemma.

He recognized the abilities of the old king Altria from the bottom of his heart.

But he also felt that the new king Morgan didn't like her that much.

But this time, he found that he seemed to have made a mistake.

Because Morgan had almost no hesitation, he directly ordered:

"Altria Pendragon."

"Great King Arthur of Britain."

"You can carve this on the tombstone and then incorporate it into the royal cemetery."

【Morgan took Mordred back to his side.】

[Looking at this child who had grown into a beautiful woman, she felt a little complicated. ]

[Because whenever she sees her, the proud princess will think of you. ]

[But she does not hate Mordred for this. ]

[She cared about her, just like a mother should care about her child.]

[She asked Gawain to teach Mordred swordsmanship while she watched from the side.]

The flowers in the garden are still bright.

The sun that shines on the royal court has never changed.

Looking at Mordred who was knocked to the ground again and again by Gawain, he still shouted unconvincedly, "Gorilla, just wait for me."

Morgan's thoughts went back to that afternoon.

The scene in which little Gawain tearfully told him that his father was not serious at all during swordplay practice and was always looking at him was still vivid in his mind.

It turns out that the best time has already come to me.

Why did you notice it only now?

[Under Morgan's training, Mordred inherited his ancestral swordsmanship.]

[The proud princess allowed her youngest daughter to join the Knights of the Round Table and become the last one.]

"Mother."

Mordred looked at the round table used for meetings and seemed a little confused.

"Can I ask you a question?"

"what is the problem?"

"Why is there always an empty seat next to you every time we discuss matters at the round table?"

"..."

Morgan was silent for a while before he replied with a wry smile:

"Because there was a hero who was supposed to sit down, but I made him stand for a very long time instead."

"Another hero? Where is he now?"

"I do not know."

"what?"

Mordred looked at Morgan in confusion.

"Why do I feel this passage is somewhat familiar, but also seems a little different?"

"is it?"

Morgan pulled Mordred into his arms.

"Then never forget it."

"……I see."

【Morgan is indeed capable enough to rule the country.】

[Under her leadership, the army of Camelot unified Britain with overwhelming force amid the charge of the Round Table.]

[During its heyday, the sound of the knights’ hooves even echoed in the Roman sky, making the Sword Emperor Lucius tremble with fear.]

[The miracle of the Age of Gods that returned to the world due to the shining of the Rhongomyniad has once again brought about a rebellious revival in this area that was supposed to have fallen into darkness.]

【The land is fertile and the sea and fisheries are prosperous. 】

[From then on, no one in Britain dared to doubt whether women had enough ability to lead a country to prosperity.]

[But no one knew that Morgan's mind was no longer on how to consolidate her rule.]

[She still remembers the miracle that happened because of the lake in the forest.]

[Since she can no longer pin her hopes on nature's reappearance, she will have to achieve her goal in her own way.]

[If he has become an "elf"——]

[Then as long as I search for all the "elves", I will definitely be able to meet him again, right? ]

[With this thought in mind, the princess continued to experiment day after day.]

【One day, she disappeared. 】

[Britain has since gone into decline, and after many years, its fate has returned to its original starting point as if destined.]

【But not everything has changed.】

【They will surely meet you again at some point in the future. 】

[——Simulation ends——]

[The results you have achieved have been written into pan-human history, and some of your abilities have been incorporated into your body.]

【Thank you for your contribution! 】
