Davian Holy Grail War
Page 179
Now that all six bells have rung, I'm afraid she is quite different from the Custer we met in the Nameless Forest."
Oberon made this sound quite serious, but Li Xiang thought about it carefully before saying:
I feel it’s okay, she is always herself, even if time passes and she awakens her mission, Custer will always be that Custer!
Rather... don't you think she is becoming more and more free? She lives boldly and does what she wants boldly. "
"Eh! Is that so? Now that you put it like that, it seems to be true!" Oberon was embarrassed by Ritsuka's optimism at the moment. But according to what he said, thinking carefully, Custer really hasn't changed much.
"And with the blessing of Altria's dragon blood, Caster is no longer a simple existence. What I am really worried about is her so-called mission and destiny.
Morgan is also a fairy from Paradise, so the fact that Morgan is so strong means that she has also experienced the pilgrimage, but she did not complete that destiny... So, what is that?"
After Ritsuka said this, Oberon showed a surprised look. He never thought that Ritsuka had already thought of this aspect. His brain is really too good, isn't it?
"I don't know that either. I'm afraid that's something only the fairies in Paradise know. But, Ritsuka, remember what I said before? In this Lostbelt, we are just spectators, and it's our duty to bear witness."
In response to Oberon's question, Ritsuka nodded. Of course he still remembered this.
After getting Ritsuka's confirmation, Oberon continued, "That's right, so we can't save Britain, and Altria's fate...
That is something that belongs only to her, and we cannot change it, no matter whether the outcome is good or bad. Our mission is to leave as soon as we get the weapon to fight against the alien god."
Hearing his words, Li Xiang showed a rare look of indignation. He just responded and did nothing? If the final fate was fine, then it would not matter. But if that fate was ultimately for Custer...
"I know that I respect your will and determination. Not towards Chaldea, but towards the path you have taken so far.
If, after defeating Morgan, you still want to save Britain... no, to help Custer, I am willing to support you. Although from the perspective of pan-human history, this should be an extra unnecessary detour. "
Oberon saw what Lixiang was thinking, and his words surprised Lixiang, which even slightly alleviated his doubts about Oberon.
Therefore, Ritsuka now expressed his truest thoughts - compared to the so-called divine weapons to fight against the alien god, he now wants to protect Custer more.
"Of course you can. Those who can achieve great things in the end are all people who work hard for themselves. Although you want to protect Custer, that's because that's your truest thought, without any hypocrisy."
Oberon suddenly felt shy when he said this, but he still showed his determination and continued to encourage Li Xiang:
"Because I have come this far alone, so I can understand your feelings to some extent~ How should I put it? It wouldn't be a bad idea to spend about 10% of your hard work to indulge yourself, right?"
Hearing his words, Ritsuka smiled happily. However, Oberon immediately coughed twice and said seriously:
"Well, as for Custer, I have no intention of indulging her. If I really want to indulge her, I have to wait until Morgan is defeated.
She clearly has a low self-esteem, but she also likes to be competitive, which is a rather troublesome character. If she doesn’t have a sense of mission to push her, she might go full speed in a strange direction.”
Hearing this, even though Ritsuka was planning to always favor Caster, he couldn't help but laugh. He could only say that Oberon was really very strict with Caster, just like a father.
After hearing what Li Xiang said, Oberon immediately became excited and loudly defended himself:
"Father...Father? Me? No, no! I'm just worried! After all, that guy always does unexpected things. I don't know how many times I have helped her behind the scenes! I really hope she can be more quiet like a princess!"
Having said that, Oberon hurriedly pretended to cough twice again and asked Lixiang to forget what he had just said. After all, it was just a small mistake on his part.
"Well, for Custer, I think it's fine for her to stay like that. I never get tired of looking at her, and it always makes me worry about her. Ah! Really, the corners of your mouth are raised! Is it that funny?"
After being told this by Oberon, Ritsuka just smiled and asked Oberon: "So, has Oberon found your shining Titania now?"
When asked this question, Oberon was even stunned for a moment. But then he responded: "That's hard to say. Although it is under the current circumstances, I am still looking for it.
But even in the story that was created at will, she was just a detail that was cut out for the sake of convenience. She was a useful stage prop that only existed in that occasion, and no one considered her happiness.
However, the so-called supporting characters only need to be like this. Considering them one by one will only make reality unstable. Readers cannot be required to have such a rich imagination, and the same goes for playwrights who write scripts.
All of this is just a fairy tale after all, and the extra things will be forgotten after turning the page. That's how she was born. So, it doesn't matter. My queen can't really exist."
He spoke a long paragraph in one breath, and what was rare was that for some reason Ritsuka always felt that what he said... was about Custer.
"Well, you have to go to bed! After all, you will be the main force in the siege tomorrow. It's easy for me. I only need to take care of Bagster. Come on, Ritsuka, everything can be over tomorrow."
Chapter 433 Oberon and Custer
However, even if Ritsuka went to rest, Oberon would not rest. Instead, he went to find Custer.
At this moment, Caster had just returned from playing with Noknalei over there. After all, the siege would begin tomorrow. In fact, everyone was talking to their friends about the hidden words in their hearts.
"Really... Noknalei actually has to write instructions for every soldier. That kind of thing should be left to the commander.
The northern goblins have simpler minds, so the solution to the problem is all focused on people who are capable of mental activities, right?
But on the other hand, they are all very honest, of the same tone, and full of loyalty to Noknalei. The people of the Round Table Army are also cheered up, so tomorrow's battle can also..."
Custer walked towards Ritsuka's tent while talking to herself, but just as she was talking to this point, Oberon took over:
"It can also go smoothly according to the prophecy, and Morgan can be defeated without any sacrifice. The pilgrimage went very smoothly, and no one fell behind during the journey.
The reorganization of the rebels is also flawless, and none of the Queen's Army has hidden anything. This should lead to a happy ending, right, Custer?"
Provoked by Oberon's words, Caster's expression immediately became uncomfortable. Seeing her expression, Oberon could only say:
"You care a lot about Gareth's affairs. The prophecy records her end. The Round Table Fortress was burned to ashes, and the Water Bell appeared in the world. It was not your fault, and she did not fall behind. She just changed people. This is her destined fate."
But Custer just said, "Do you really think so?"
Oberon gave a matter-of-fact comforting smile and explained, "Of course, otherwise Gareth would die with regrets, right? She was thinking about continuing to fight until the end, so she was able to summon the strongest miracle-type..."
But Caster interrupted him without hesitation. She was not talking about Gareth, but about what Oberon said about not making any sacrifices.
The chances of the rebels winning are indeed great. Gareth is now very strong, to an absurd degree. But not all people are like her. Everyone in the Round Table Army, especially humans, will die.
"You clearly thought so, but you reassured me by saying 'no sacrifice'. And you even said something about the Queen's Army...
Oberon, you actually knew Nocnarè a long time ago, right? Otherwise, we wouldn't have had the chance to meet her or even ask her to support us in the Battle of Londinium."
After being exposed by Caster, Oberon could only respond embarrassedly that it was true.
But then he immediately began to defend himself, saying that if people had known that he and Noknalei were actually friends, then Caster might not have trusted him, so this was a necessary concealment.
“Not only that, you knew Matthew in Norwich at that time, but you pretended in front of everyone that it was the first time you met her.
You knew all along that she was in Norwich, but you kept it to yourself until Lord Davian arrived."
Custer was also very clear about the reason for this. If Fujimaru Ritsuka knew where Mashu was too early, there might not have been that break in Wales.
Emotional bondage is the best kind of bondage, and pity for the goblins is really a good emotional means.
“Also, during the battle with Davian and the others, you had no chance of repairing Morgan’s magic circle.
This must have been accomplished with the help of someone, perhaps an outside arms dealer who was particularly keen on doing business."
"Aiya~ I have already confessed this matter to Ritsuka. Koyanskaya helped a lot. I heard that you had a fight with her in the lake area later. Aiya~ It's great that we can stop her conspiracy."
Oberon's words at this moment could be regarded as an extremely shameless way of dealing with Koyanskaya in some ways, but Caster did not want to dwell on this topic at the moment.
"Oberon, although you are upright and honest, you keep silent about the truth most of the time and never tell anyone important things. Why is that? Why do you lie so many times? Could it be that you actually - don't want to defeat Morgan?"
Custer's words made Oberon smile strangely but very relieved. He smiled and said that there was no goblin who was more dedicated than him in defeating Morgan.
"I will do my best to defeat the Fairy Kingdom. To do this, I will not hesitate to lie. Besides, you are lying too, Caster."
This question was like a wake-up call to Caster, who was stunned. Oberon did not stop, and continued:
"I mean the reason why you have worked so hard until now, your motivation to save Britain. Not only me, but even Ritsuka has noticed it to some extent.
You have never fought for the sake of humans or fairies. Your real purpose is somewhere else, but you never mention it. "
At this moment, Custer was shaken. She could only weakly argue what nonsense Oberon was talking about? She was a fairy from paradise sent to save Britain...
"In the final analysis, what does salvation mean? Muramasa once said that all fairies are craving for forgiveness, and no matter who they are, they are seeking destruction.
He said that no matter which city you are in, no matter what kind of goblin you are, your innermost desire is the same. "
Caster was surprised. Did Muramasa actually say such a thing? But Oberon just said that she underestimated others. Although they did not have fairy eyes like them, the heroic spirits and humans in pan-human history were more sensitive to the pain in their hearts.
"That's where your confusion comes from, Custer. You won't tell the decisive fact because it won't help even if you tell it.
The same thing goes for me. Even if it's something I don't want to do, as long as it's necessary to defeat Morgan, I have no choice but to do it."
At this point he suddenly laughed and talked about another person:
"So Davian and I are on two different paths. Davian wants to protect Morgan, so even if he doesn't want to do something, he has to do it. I can really understand him in this regard. After all, reality is so helpless."
Custer thought of Davian. Because of the dragon blood of our king, her feelings towards Davian were also very complicated. She inherited the dragon blood, so she had the obligation to free Davian.
"Alright, alright~ Let's stop here for now. After all, tomorrow's battle will be the final one. Sooner or later, the time will come to confess the things that we have hidden, the important things. Isn't that what the pilgrimage is for?"
Such words made Caster's expression dim, but Oberon just comforted her, saying that maybe everyone would just laugh it off if she confessed.
Let’s stop here for now. Everything else will have to wait until Morgan is defeated.
Chapter 434 War begins
In the morning, Li Xiang chose to get up earlier than everyone else. He went to Oberon and was about to go to the battle, but he still had something to say to him before leaving.
"The curtain of night has been drawn. Now is the time when the morning skylarks are singing. It is also the moment of decisive battle. I am also surprised that you came to me.
But now, I have done everything I can do, there is nothing I can do anymore. However, there is still one regrettable thing. "
Oberon looked at him and smiled. However, Ritsuka understood what his regret was, and he couldn't help asking, does Titania not exist?
"Maybe? But you can't stop looking for her just because she might not exist, Fujimaru Ritsuka. On the contrary, you should look for her precisely because she doesn't exist.
It is precisely because she may not exist that I cannot help but pursue her. This is the Titania in my mind, just like the stars shining in the sky. "
Li Xiang suddenly laughed at this moment, and after listening to what Oberon said, he couldn't help but say:
"Ah... Indeed, if we don't do something just because we may not have it or cannot do it, then it would be... Such a pity. If we don't do it, then in the end we won't even be able to get the truth."
"But maybe that's something we can never get while we're struggling on the ground? Does that mean it doesn't matter?" Oberon asked him with a smile, but Ritsuka just shook his head indifferently.
"It doesn't matter. Maybe we will never get it. But we must look for it and try our best to move forward. Although this is the last quiet time before the decisive battle, I feel like I have suddenly realized something when I was reminded of this."
Oberon smiled smugly and said proudly that it would be great if this could help Lixiang.
As for his own affairs, let's wait and talk about it later.
After all, he is not very good at expressing his thoughts, nor is he very good at fighting. This time he can only watch them go to the front line. There is really nothing he can do.
"This is my last question before we part... Oberon, this may be my illusion, are you always angry?"
As soon as Li Xiang asked this question, Oberon was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that he would be asked this question. To be honest, the only time he showed obvious anger was in the Welsh forest, right?
But what Ritsuka said was not wrong, and since he was pointed out, Oberon could only admit that he was a little bit like that. When he first heard that Ritsuka and his team had eliminated other Lostbelts, he felt a little uncomfortable.
“This is not directed at you, but at the people who will know about this experience after you.
Although this is unavoidable, no matter what the past is, it is just a story to outsiders.
Decades later, your exploration will only become a cold, emotionless report placed on someone else's desk.
For the readers, this has nothing to do with them and will only serve as a lesson.
But I hate this because half of the Elf King Oberon was born out of the story, so I have mixed feelings about it.
As a person who is part of pan-human history, I pursue the correct image of the British Isles. As a character in a fictional story, I hope that the story can continue.
The two are still competing with each other. It doesn't matter if we cut out the lossbelt for the sake of pan-human history. After all, we exist only because of our foundation.
But I cannot bear the fact that these things are despised and forgotten by future generations.
I don’t want people to think that these things should disappear. I want people to understand that even if they end halfway, these things still have meaning.
However, this is just the selfishness of the people involved. As humans move forward, they will record the past. If our values never change, how can we move forward?
That’s what we often say, a long, long time ago. The word outdated itself is evidence of progress.”
At this point, Ritsuka asked him if he hated Morgan. But Oberon said how could that be possible? Although he was hostile to Morgan, Oberon did not hate him. After all, he could not hate someone he had never even met.
“Well, for me, this fairy country is actually pretty good.
After all, to put it bluntly, the Queen's Calendar itself is a fairy tale written by Morgan, the embodiment of her dream that she prayed for, believed in, and worked hard to realize. Whether it is a masterpiece or a mediocre work, at least this effort deserves respect.
And because of this, I will also go all out to defeat Morgan. As a resident of the fairy tale world, I don't want her to have a hasty ending.
After all, we are the righteous hero. Isn't that what fairy tales always say? The hero defeats the devil, and the world is saved and at peace.
However, if we don't go all out, we will be the losers, so we can't just let it go, right? I'll leave the battle later, Custer, to you, Fujimaru Ritsuka.
I just said that my mission has come to an end. From now on, it is your turn to fight. Before I leave, let me see a magnificent victory!"
Speaking of this, Li Xiang smiled and stretched out his fist. And Oberon also understood what he meant, and he also stretched out his fist. After the two of them lightly bumped fists, Li Xiang turned around and ran towards the gathering place!
"He is really full of energy, but your confession is also interesting to me. I didn't expect that you don't have any hatred towards Morgan. Should I say that you are indifferent?"
Bagster's words came from the tent, but Oberon just told her to mind her own business.
