Davian Holy Grail War
Page 166
Custer said the worst words at this moment, but the two people with their backs to her said:
"That's true. I also think there should be someone more qualified than me to do this."
"What do you mean the number one person under the Knight King? It gives me a headache. My king thinks too highly of me..."
The two did not get complacent about the honors, and even thought that maybe someone else could do better than them. But they still embarked on this path and even went further and further, completing their mission and tasks.
[Why then? What is it all about? ]
Custer couldn't understand it any more, or she didn't want to understand it. Was it worth it for those people?
However, the two just smiled and responded: "You should know the reason best, right?"
The storm in her dream dissipated at this moment, and the two people in the distance turned into shining stars, illuminating what she wanted to see.
Custer woke up and was leaning against the carriage railing. Redla was still driving happily, just as he had been driving happily since he parted with Percival and the others last night.
They had been traveling north along the national highway all night, and it was almost noon now. To be honest, he wanted to take a break, but he was close to his destination, so he just had to work harder.
"Everyone, at this speed, we will reach the entrance to the lake area in the evening. I will temporarily say goodbye to you there, so please don't forget."
"I understand. Redra will just need to lurk near Edinburgh and wait for us to come back. Don't worry, we will come back safely. This time, I will definitely bring Mashu back."
Ritsuka is now completely excited, he and Mashu have been separated for too long. Now he can't wait to find Mashu, he really wants to know how Mashu is doing now.
After a short rest, they continued on their way, and Redra left after reaching the lake area. They had already seen the huge remains of the fantasy tree in the distance, and Orkney was in front of them after crossing the lake area.
"When you get close to this distance, the size of the Fantasy Tree becomes clear at a glance. Compared to previous Fantasy Trees, it is definitely larger than the standard size. It withered in Britain 2000 years ago, and was set on fire by Morgan a few months ago in order to burn down the Fantasy Tree in Olympus."
Da Vinci couldn't help but sigh when looking at the huge imaginary tree. That thing was really too huge.
Norwich even used the bark of the fantasy tree to make a protective layer for the city wall. With their current means, they don’t know whether they can analyze the withered fantasy tree.
"Does England have such a lake district in reality?" Li Xiang suddenly asked this question. After all, he had never been to England during the pan-human history. If he had not been illegally kidnapped, he would not even have had the opportunity to leave the country...
Speaking of this, Da Vinci happily explained that the Lake District is one of the tourist attractions in the UK, with gently connected glacial lakes and plateaus with natural rugged cliffs. Unlike developed urban areas, it is a pastoral landscape that has retained its original appearance of more than a hundred years ago.
“Luxury clothes, food and entertainment are all good, but spending time immersed in nature is the most luxurious enjoyment~”
Da Vinci-chan summed it up with these two sentences, but Ritsuka just smiled and complained that British food was not luxurious at all, and he still preferred the cuisine of his own country.
Chapter 398 Lake District
Even as they were chatting happily, Muramasa and Ritsuka noticed that Caster looked a bit listless.
Of course, Li Xiang would not just let it go, so he spoke to Custer and asked her if it was her first time in the lake area.
Custer just answered stupidly that he was thinking about how beautiful the lake area was. It was really as beautiful as the rumors said, especially the atmosphere, which was very quiet!
Hearing her answer, everyone showed helpless expressions. Muramasa was the most ruthless. He directly exposed Custer that this was the scene and Chunchun just wanted to get away with it.
"Well, I'm just a little nervous. After all, I'm being hunted, and I have to ring the fourth bell. If I think about it carefully, this period of time is much more exciting and tense than the past sixteen years of my life."
After Custer said this, everyone finally accepted this reason. After all, she was right. Her life was indeed very exciting during this period of time. How could the past days be compared with the present?
But now is not the time to talk about this, they still have to hurry through the Lake District and head straight to Orkney.
After all, Bagst had told them at the ball that the people coming to hunt her and Lancelot were the ones who came, so they couldn't waste time here.
Bagster was not a big deal, after all, they were already used to Bagster's fighting style. But the Fairy Knight Lancelot was too much trouble, and Ritsuka felt that even if all the people on his side were piled together, they would not be a match for that guy.
The Mors here are indeed much stronger than those in the south. What's worse is that they even encountered Koyanskaya's followers.
However, it was because of seeing this thing that Ritsuka probably guessed where the thing that Oberon mentioned Gao Yanskaya wanted was.
I guess we will run into each other on the road, and a fight will be inevitable. After all, if Gao Yanskaya continues to strengthen, it will be even more troublesome to deal with her.
At the same time, Habertlot was also talking about the history of the Elf Kingdom, such as Britain a long time ago. At that time, Britain was very small, and now the area where they are is also a vast ocean with no place to stand.
The only landmass in the world is Britain, at least that's how the goblins expanded the island.
They knew this before, after all, Custer had said before that Britain was made up of the remains of the goblins. They now accepted this fact, but still felt that it was outrageous.
But what they want to know more is where the original Britain went, and even why the original fairies thought that Britain was the only land left in the world?
After that, Britain continued to expand until it connected with the north. Then the Spring War broke out, and the northern fairies were killed by the southern fairies to the point that even the next generation could not be born.
But when everyone thought that the northern fairies were extinct, the Queen of the North escaped and created an Island of the West in the Sea of Nothingness, far away from the lake area.
That island became an invisible but real island of legend, and also became the last place of hope for the fairies exiled from Britain.
After that, there was another fierce summer war between the north and the south, but that had nothing to do with the current lake area. So Habertlot did not elaborate on the summer war and stopped here.
"After the First Spring War, the southern fairies acquired this lake area and further developed it. The Mirror Clan and the Rain Clan both built cities here and prospered, but now as you can see, both clans have become extinct."
Habertlot stopped talking here, and everyone felt that there was really no such thing as a kingdom that prospered for a thousand years. It was actually very strange that a fairy kingdom could last for two thousand years.
"After all, there has been no progress, so it cannot be called prosperity. These 2000 years have been a waste of time. The entire Fairy Kingdom is just a toy in Morgan's hands, and Davian is the one who helps her maintain the toy. I'm sure you will understand this."
Habertlot said this with a smile, and this vivid description made everyone more aware of the nature of this fairy country.
[Rather than a toy, it’s more like a girl’s innocent dream…]
Li Xiang even had such thoughts in his mind, but when he thought of these, he was even more emotional. What kind of mood did Davian have when he fought for the queen? It really felt so strange.
"I see. The Rain Clan... Although the sky over Britain is always dusk, it still rains. It's normal that there were fairies that could influence the weather, but why did the Rain Clan perish? Was it a natural demise?"
Da Vinci's question brought a helpless look to Habertlot's face. She could only say that this matter would have to wait until they arrived in Orkney before discussing it.
But anyway, the Rain Clan was destroyed just like that, and if we count according to the fairy history, that was about 4000 years ago.
"6000 years ago? That's too far away." Ritsuka couldn't help but complain. The history of this Lostzone Britain can really be traced back many years.
Habertlot nodded. It was a metropolis that was built around the 5000th year of the Fairy Calendar, and it even prospered for another 1000 years after that.
"The so-called northern fairies are the Irish fairies, right? So what's the current situation of the Western Island?"
Da Vinci asked this again, and Habertlot became excited when talking about this.
"Of course I need to say more! After the northern fairies had all moved to the British Isles, Mab simply took the entire West Island back into his own body and launched an attack!
After all, that was the island she created to protect the fairies!
And after that, in the year 2000 of the Fairy Calendar, came the Summer War, in which both the Savior Ash and the first generation Fairy Knights gave brilliant performances!
Mab, the leader of the northern fairies, is a very powerful fairy! After the defeat in the Spring War, she has coexisted with humans on the West Island for 4000 years.
There are southern fairies who only see humans as entertainment props, and northern fairies who see humans as partners to build civilization together.
Although the South had the advantage in numbers, the difference in combat power was obvious. Mab not only intended to avenge the Spring-Spring War, but also to completely destroy the Southern goblins.
But in the end, thanks to Ash's intervention, both sides were able to conclude a peace treaty."
After that, things were simple. The northern elves were accepted as the king's clan with the northern part of Britain as their territory. Since then, there has been the saying of the six major clans, and Ritsuka and the others all know what happened afterwards.
At the same time, because of this past, even now in the Queen's Calendar, the northern fairies are still at odds with the southern fairies. So Noknalei would go to the south to stir up trouble from time to time, although Davian would also bring people to fight her back, this has almost become a daily occurrence.
"Then Habertlot knows the original events? That is, events that happened fourteen thousand years ago."
Ritsuka asked this, but Habertlot just shook his head. There is no record of the story of the creation period, and Ash and the first generation of fairy knights tried their best to investigate, but in the end they only learned the story of the six fairies.
"Six goblins, are they the same six on the mural?" Lixiang has already recalled the six things on the mural, as well as the huge beast god and the huge mouth below the beast god that swallows everything.
I didn't expect to hear such a story from Habertlot. It was surprising.
Habertlot also praised him for his quick reaction, saying that they were indeed the six on the mural. But even she had a vague memory of this story.
But I'll just tell them these as bedtime stories at night. Now the most important thing is to keep on going. Keep on going.
Chapter 399 The Truth (Part II)
At night, everyone arrived at the forest, which was a perfect place for camping, and everyone started to do their assigned work.
"I'm full. Let me have a good sleep and continue my journey tomorrow. I didn't expect that I didn't encounter Bagster's pursuit troops all day. It's such a relaxing day."
Li Xiang sat by the campfire and rubbed his full stomach. This was a precious time to relax. He was so happy.
"Well, it's almost time to go to bed. This forest doesn't look like there are any malicious creatures..."
As soon as Custer said this, Habe Miao immediately said that they had agreed to tell the story of the six fairies before going to bed.
Caster felt embarrassed being interrupted by Habertlot. She had forgotten about this matter. However, she still hurriedly asked Habertlot to speak freely and say whatever he wanted!
"Okay~ uh uh~ The diary from that time should be... I found it, this is it, page 153 of Habemeow History!
[At the end, it became the ocean. At the beginning, there was an ocean. After the meteor passed, the earth became a river.]”
This is an old story, so old that it cannot be any older. When the six fairies came out, they found that the world had turned into an ocean.
There was no land, no rocks, no fish, no birds. Of course, the mountains and forests that the six fairies loved the most were gone. The six fairies were at a loss and thought sadly whether they should go back.
[It's really pitiful that the world has become like this. ]
At this moment, a huge figure stood up from the sea. It was a huge, soft, furry body. On its shoulder was an animal that should no longer exist. The animal sitting on the shoulder called this furry mass Cernunnos.
Cernunnos made friends with the animals and the six fairies, but the empty ocean was very boring, uninhabitable, and hard. But Cernunnos would help block the waves, so the six fairies had an easy life.
However, since Cernunnos was a god, the animals said that offerings were needed. The six fairies offered Cernunnos joy and the six fairies offered Cernunnos wishes.
[Although the ocean without waves is nice, we still miss the earth! 】
The wish was fulfilled, and the celebration was over. The god was tired and went to sleep. The six fairies solemnly offered sacrifices to Cernunnos. They also used the things left behind carefully.
Britain was created in this way, and hopefully, the original six goblins can be redeemed.
"The story ends here. How about it? Is it of reference value, Caster?" Habertlot closed the diary with a smile and looked at Caster. However, Caster's performance at this time could only be described as very disappointing.
She kept saying how great and knowledgeable Habemiao was and how she had benefited a lot from it.
But when Habertlot got closer, he found that this guy had his eyes closed. How could this guy use sleep talking to pretend that he was still awake?
"Where are the others? Ritsuka? Ritsuka…"
Habertlot looked at Ritsuka. She originally thought that Ritsuka might have fallen asleep or dozed off because of this boring story, but to her surprise, Ritsuka had his eyes wide open and was sweating.
He was sweating profusely now. In the eyes of others, this story might be just a simple creation story. But in his eyes, it was a thriller... no, it might be a horror story.
[There is definitely something missing here! The real history of 14,000 years is definitely not so peaceful and harmonious! Otherwise, Cornunus would not have become that kind of thing. After all, it is the existence that curses all creatures on the British Isles, and it is also the lid that blocks something. ]
[There must be something wrong! Absolutely! Damn it! Lord David, why can't you just explain things to us directly? Do you have to pretend to be a riddle teller at a time like this?]
[And, wait... we sacrificed to Cernunnos and used what was left behind... what else could it have left behind... animals! Wait, the humans in this Lostbelt don't live past 30, have no reproductive function, and are even manufactured... No way? Could it be that the animal is...]
Lixiang felt his scalp tingling. For the first time, he felt that he was so close to the truth. Although he was still missing some information and couldn't piece together the whole story, he already understood the general situation.
What god is very tired and sleeping? It must be dead, otherwise how could it be willing to accept that precious "animal" being used in this way?
That's why it cursed Britain and the goblins. Its anger was justified. Even though Ritsuka only had a partial understanding of the matter, he still understood the general outline of the matter. This was simply outrageous.
But now he was beginning to wonder, what difference had caused the history of this Lostbelt to go in this direction? Fourteen thousand years ago...what had happened at that time?
【Wait...wait, wait! Fourteen thousand years ago? What was said in Olympus, the White War between the Olympian gods and Cephalus, the enemy of the world.
I remember that was the divergence point. If the gods won, it would be the fifth Lostbelt. If they lost, it would be the human holy sword user who defeated them. 】
[There is no land outside of Britain, and even this Britain is a fake pieced together from the remains of the goblins.
In other words, in this world line, Cefalu defeated all the existences that stood in his way and ate up the entire surface of the planet? Why, shouldn't it be defeated by a human holy sword user? 】
So the question is, why didn't the holy swordsman in this Lostbelt defeat Cefalu? Ritsuka thought of this, and his brain really worked very fast this time and he quickly came up with the answer.
[Fuck, is this true? Of course I can't defeat Cefalu without the Holy Sword. Why didn't I think of this earlier? Is it really that outrageous? Has the famous Sword of Promised Victory never been forged?
Wait... Then why are there Kaledin and Arondite? Ah... Those two guys accepted the names, and the holy swords are just the form of expression, and the inner part is actually something else. 】
[Wait, that's still not right. Lord David An's Dark Sword, Yue'an, is a real holy sword. He once owned it. It has existed since the history of humankind.
What is going on? What is the situation in this Lostbelt? What happened in the first place? It’s so strange. Everything is so strange. 】
During this short period of time, Ritsuka went through a terrifying brainstorm, and he almost figured out the truth of the initial creation period by himself.
Although there are still some things he hasn't figured out yet, as long as he is given some more information, I'm afraid he will be able to completely deduce the truth of the matter.
After finishing this crazy thinking, he finally came to his senses and responded to Habertlot who was worried about him. After seeing him recover, Habemeow also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she had no idea what was going on in Ritsuka's mind just now, if she knew, she would probably be impressed - worthy of being the last Master of Humanity.
"Well, but it's not easy for you to stay awake until now. Being patient is a must for a good husband!"
"No, no, the story you told is really worth referring to." Li Xiang responded with a smile, but this was also a way of avoiding the truth. After all, he now felt that being a husband was still a long way off for him.
Let’s live till that time first.
