Hector used an unquestionable tone to force the cloak on Altria.
To be honest, it was a bit too big. When Altria, who was 154cm tall, put on this cloak, it was like she was wearing a blue quilt.
But Altria was still very grateful for the old knight's kindness.
A cloak—a symbol of honor, a reward bestowed upon only the bravest knights.
The old knight gave her this cloak, probably because he had high hopes for her, right?
With this thought in mind, the young king turned and left, embarking on a new journey.
Looking at Altria's back as she left, the old knight who had been a little hunched just now suddenly straightened his back - he raised his head slightly, clenched his right fist, and pounded it hard on his chest.
He didn't need to think, because the familiar oath had already been etched into his soul. The moment his fist hit his heart, it had become instinct and he blurted out:
"All-Hail-Britannia!"
"All-Hail-Pendragon!"
Chapter 26: Duel Elves are also Elves!
With the old man's blessing, the young king embarked on a new journey.
But to be honest, it is definitely not a good idea to set off in this season.
"Ah-"
"The old man is too cruel... What's wrong with letting us stay for another three months?"
Artoria rode ahead on a white horse, heading forward along the road, while her adopted brother rode on a brown horse, following closely behind her, while constantly complaining about the increasingly cold weather.
——This is actually something that goes against common sense.
When people talk about the "rainy season", they often think of the stormy summer or the rainy spring.
But in reality, the rainy season in Britain is from late autumn to early spring of the following year - of course, including the entire winter.
The current season is the junction between autumn and winter, when all things are about to wither.
At this time, even the most ferocious bears would hide in caves and hibernate obediently. But they had to brave the winter snow that could come at any time and set out on the road to open up their kingdom.
"Stop complaining, Kai."
"Instead of complaining, why not think about where we're going to spend the winter?"
"What are you still thinking about? Why not just find a random kingdom, kill their king, and occupy their palace and territory!"
"No, that kind of thing is absolutely not allowed!"
A heated discussion.
In the end, Artoria decided to follow the method Sir Hector had mentioned: first find a tribe, secretly establish a stronghold, and slowly accumulate strength. When her power is almost equal to that of the humble King Vortigern, she will raise an army and defeat them!
"whispering sound--"
Looking at the spirited girl, the knight curled his lips.
Secretly?
After establishing a covenant with the white dragon, can she still be "dark"?
He could bet that at this moment, all the nobles on the island were looking for her - most of them wanted her dead; a small number of them wanted to sideline her and make her a puppet or mascot in their hands.
but--
"never mind."
Looking up at the gray sky, the knight acted indifferent again.
Regardless of the process, the result was the same. Facing a red dragon that could crush the city wall with its own flesh and blood, those cunning tricks would be useless.
Just think of it as accompanying this guy who has never had a good rest since he was born, and dreaming a beautiful dream called "King of Knights"!
……
The legendary story of the Knight King has officially begun.
From saving a small tribe, to enduring a winter of scarcity with the tribe, to the first planting in spring, the first organized training, the first victory in war, and the construction of the first White Dragon Temple...
In this humble valley, the young king is methodically building her kingdom, allowing this seed of hope to grow and develop little by little.
At the same time, deep in the vast mountains, Shirataki was not idle either.
The king has his mission, and the gods have their battlefield.
His targets are the fantasy species that once lived on this island - including the monsters and giants that still live on this land, as well as the fairies and elves that have escaped to the other side of the world but can still freely enter and exit the real world.
He attempts to reestablish contact with these beings that should have been abandoned by the times in order to reconstruct the true Age of Gods.
Communication with the giants and demonic beasts went relatively smoothly—unable to escape the real world, they were already terrified of being driven out by human civilization. Knowing they had a place to temporarily stay was naturally a source of joy. Shirataki didn't even need to say anything; he simply spread his mysterious wings and they gathered around him, establishing themselves in this mountain forest.
But communication with the goblins is not so smooth.
Those cunning fairies, relying on their advantage of being able to freely enter and exit the two worlds, acted arrogantly and ambiguously there, and even wanted to use this as a condition to exchange for something - this made Shirataki very angry, and he directly broke into the inner side of the world and forcibly destroyed the two fairy towns that were jumping the most happily, which made the remaining fairies temporarily obedient.
"Tsk, it's just the back side of the world, who isn't an elf?!"
While complaining in his mind, Shirataki put his mouth into the "holy lake" of the fairies, intending to use the magical lake water to rinse his mouth, which had become a little dry due to the continuous release of ten [Explosive Gale Bombs of Destruction].
But at this moment, Bai Taki suddenly felt the scales on his forehead slightly warm.
Huh? Someone's contacting him?
"Is it Vina?"
……
Counting the time, it has been nearly two months since Vina left the valley alone.
This period of time may not sound very long, but it is enough for her to travel to many places - after all, the area of this island is so large, and there are very few places that are truly populated by human civilization. There are only some big cities in the southern part of the island.
For two months, Vina disguised herself as a magician, traveling and meeting all kinds of people, while keeping Shirataki's commission in mind and secretly searching for clues to various treasures.
She actually found a lot of information about "treasures".
For example, a dagger inlaid with emeralds - this dagger is the sacred object of the god of curse, and a princess once used this dagger to kill her husband and his lover; another example is a bow and arrow that is said to be able to "hit the target every time" - in fact, it is blessed by the god of hunting.
There are about five or six of these scattered low-level treasures in total.
But today, the reason why Vina suddenly contacted Shirataki was definitely not because of these "art collections" that looked valuable but actually had little practical value.
"A woman who looks so good you just want to bite her... What do you mean? What are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"
"I'm sorry, Lord Dragon God, I can't even describe what this situation is like. But I swear, this woman will never let you down."
"The mystery hidden within her soul...it's like a Noble Phantasm taken to spirit!"

Chapter 27 Red Dragon Princess
That was Vina's adventure.
But in fact, it was not complicated or tortuous, and there was no life-threatening situation.
The story begins with a girl who calls herself a "magician" being targeted by some people... but there is no malicious intent, it is a relatively friendly encounter.
After a period of interaction, these people took the initiative to explain their purpose. They invited Vina to join a mysterious faction called the Dark Madonna and to meet with its leader: a woman dressed in a black dress, her face obscured by a black veil, her features obscured. However, she appeared quite tall, with long, silver-white hair that fell to her calves.
Without a doubt, this was a woman of high status. Not only did she exude the aura of a superior, but her every gesture exuded an indescribable sense of dignity. Before this seemingly naturally elegant woman, even the rural Weina felt a sense of inferiority.
But this was definitely not the reason why Vina knocked her unconscious, tied her up with ropes all over her body, dragged her into the mountains, and urgently contacted Shirataki.
"The mystery she holds is like a Noble Phantasm transformed into a spirit!"
This statement is by no means false, nor is it an exaggerated rhetoric device.
Vina just described what she saw truthfully.
"A dragon."
"I saw a red dragon, imprisoned in her body, roaring continuously."
"This dragon gives me a very familiar feeling. It's very similar to the sister with the ahoge on her head. But it's also completely different... The dragon hidden inside her seems to be restrained by something, without any power at all."
Speaking of this, Vina felt a little relieved.
Fortunately, this woman was not as scary as the silly girl before. Just a glance from her could make her subconsciously want to kneel down - otherwise, she would probably be the one tied up with ropes.
"Ah, she's awake!"
"Anyway, please come and take a look. I feel like I've caught a really amazing guy..."
……
Late at night, in an unknown cave.
The woman named Morgan slowly opened her eyes.
"it hurts……"
The dizziness that came from her head even made her temporarily forget what had happened before - she curled up and subconsciously wanted to hold her head with her hands to calm the churning brain matter.
but--
"Eh?"
When the woman struggled a little and found that her hands were tied behind her back with a rope, she suddenly realized that she was in danger.
"Not only the hands, but also the feet are tied up."
It was a very professional binding technique. Not only was it impossible to break free, but the more one struggled, the tighter the binding became. This was something Vina learned from her own people, and it was usually used to tie up goats.
"Who are you?"
After realizing that she could no longer escape, the woman, completely despairing, managed to turn over and finally saw the silver-haired girl who had led her to this point.
She couldn't understand why. She had clearly researched this girl's background thoroughly—it was absolutely clean, with no signs of any connection to any power. Aside from her somewhat unbelievable physical attributes, she looked like a simple country girl from the countryside. Logically, she should be completely reliable!
But why, after their first meeting, did this girl punch her without explanation? And even tied her up in this cave?
"What exactly do you want to do?"
The pain in his head eased slightly, and Morgan began to ask again.
At this moment, she may have realized that the girl in front of her had no intention of taking her life - that's good, she has a lot of wealth, enough to buy her life, which is worthless but she absolutely cannot die here.
"Listen, I don't know what price your backer offered you. But if you let me go, I'm willing to give you double it!"
"Believe me, there is no one richer than me on this island!"
At this moment, Morgan was actually a little desperate and trying all kinds of treatments.
As the saying goes, wealth should not be revealed. If Vina is really that kind of vicious villain, she will definitely use cruel means to force her to reveal the location of the buried treasures, and then end her life in a cruel way.
——Stupid, when you die, all your wealth will be mine!
But if you think about it carefully, Morgan's current behavior is perfectly normal.
She was no longer the "British Concubine" of later generations who, driven by revenge, fell into the trap of becoming a witch. Now she was merely a princess of a fallen nation who had been traveling abroad for ten years, constantly preparing to restore her kingdom.
Just as Vina had seen, she possessed an incredibly powerful force. However, this force was restricted by her body, preventing her from fully unleashing her true strength. Morgan was now nothing more than a half-baked magician who had a basic understanding of magic but was no more capable than an ordinary person.
She hasn't even left the scope of "humanity" and naturally has all the emotions that humans should have - including despair and panic.
But Vina did not respond to her panic.
No matter what Morgan said, she remained silent, staring at the night sky outside the cave, as if waiting for something.
She didn't have to wait long.
