Anime: Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon, picked up by the Knight King

boom--

A torrent of light burst forth from Eri's body, and the dragon wings behind her completely disintegrated, transforming into billions of light particles that reassembled. Each particle of light reflected a different color, outlining geometric patterns in the void that transcended the laws of physics.

Her skin gradually became translucent, revealing the starlight coursing through her body. The dragon symbols once carved into her blood by the Black Emperor were now being reconstructed by forces from a higher dimension—each symbol was broken down into elementary particles, then rearranged and reassembled under the pull of light.

Three pairs of wings like aurora spread out behind her, magnificent and dreamy.

But at this moment, the most beautiful thing is her eyes.

The pair of [golden eyes] that were supposed to symbolize the mixed-race identity have now been replaced by another kind of brilliant light - it is a beautiful starlight like the Milky Way, with countless stars twinkling in it.

【Sea of ​​Stars 557】.

This is a gift from the goblin Lancelot - but it is more of a "dream" than a "gift".

Because even the fairy Lancelot had never seen the true appearance of the Sea of ​​Stars.

She entrusted her strength to Uesugi Eri, and also placed her dreams on her - go and see for her, the beautiful scenery beyond the end.

——Declaration.

At this moment, Uesugi Eri's voice no longer belonged to humans, but rather the resonance of something more ancient and vast. Her sound waves vibrated through the air, not through the eardrums, but directly imprinted on the souls of every living being.

Her body had completely escaped the constraints of matter, transforming into flowing starlight. The blood curse that had once bound her, the Black Emperor's brand, and even the limitations of being "human" were all washed away by the starlight.

Her fingertips lightly touched the void, and in an instant, the water in the entire East China Sea stopped flowing.

——No, it’s not stopped, but it’s “fixed” at a certain moment by some higher-dimensional force.

Billions of water droplets were suspended in the air, and each one reflected her current posture—no longer a dragon-like monster, no longer a fragile girl, but an existence somewhere between "life" and "concept."

The echo of the sea of ​​stars appears here.

As her voice fell, the world suddenly became silent.

The sky cracked open.

It was not torn apart by brute force, but like a scroll with a corner gently opened, revealing the hidden scenery behind it - that is a realm that humans can never witness, a forbidden land that even the gods in mythology have never set foot in.

[The inner sea of ​​stars].

According to legend, this is where the soul of the planet resides, and where all life originates and ends.

At this moment, a corner of it was projected into reality.

——It was a scene that could not be accurately described in words.

There was no up or down, no left or right, no passage of time, only an endless flow of light. That light wasn't simply energy, but something closer to the essence of life. It converged into rivers, then scattered into stars, weaving patterns across the void that transcended human comprehension.

Eri's starlight body slowly rose and approached the inland sea.

Her consciousness is being "assimilated".

Not swallowing, not erosion, but return - like a drop of water finally finding the ocean.

She saw it.

——Deep in the sea of ​​stars, a giant dragon sleeps.

Albion.

The true, complete Albion, not a fragment like the fairy Lancelot. It floats quietly in the sea of ​​light, its body stretching like a mountain range, each scale reflecting a different world.

It's long dead.

But its "existence" is still here, drifting forever at the end of the inner sea of ​​​​the stars.

Eri reached out her hand, wanting to touch it.

At this moment——

You shouldn't be here yet.

A voice sounded.

It is not language, but "information" that acts directly on the soul.

Eri's movements paused.

The "rules" of the Star Inner Sea began to exclude her—not expel her, but reject her. Because she was still alive, her life had not yet come to an end, and her story had not yet ended.

Her astral body began to disintegrate and fell back towards reality.

Taiyi ascended from the earth to the heavens and descended from the heavens, acquiring the power of both above and below. In this way, he could obtain the glory of the world and escape from darkness and ignorance.

Taiyi ascended from the earth to the heavens and descended from the heavens, acquiring the power of both above and below. In this way, he gained the glory of the world and escaped from darkness and ignorance.

The ancient motto echoed in the void, as if it were the confirmation of some supreme law.

Eri's fall wasn't an uncontrolled descent, but a kind of "return"—her astral body disintegrated, yet reassembled within. Every particle of light carried the imprint of the inner sea of ​​the stars, and instead of dispersing, they were rewoven into a more complete form.

When her toes touched the sea again, the ripples were no longer the spread of water, but ripples of light.

She opened her eyes.

Deep in those pupils that reflected the sea of ​​stars, there was now an additional layer of profound "understanding".

——She touched the echoes of Albion, listened to the whispers of the inner sea of ​​​​the stars, and even briefly became "light" itself.

And now, she is back.

I saw the end.

Her voice was soft, yet it shook the entire ocean. It wasn't the pressure of force, but a higher-level resonance—like a stone dropped into a lake, stirring not just ripples but the entire world's response.

Her palm was facing upwards, and a ray of starlight condensed and gradually turned into a crystal.

That is not a gem, nor a dragon scale, but a "fragment of the Sea of ​​Stars".

——She brought back something that should have been impossible to bring back.

The Black Emperor's curse had been completely cleansed, but her life did not end. Instead, she surpassed the limits of the "Path to Deification" and reached a realm not even recorded in the dragon tome.

She was no longer a half-blood, no longer a dragon, no longer even a "creature."

She is--

"Star Dragon."

The Star Inland Sea rejected her, yet also accepted her. She could not stay there, but she could bring the "light" back to the world.

Eri raised her head and looked at the sky.

The will of the Black Emperor still remains there, but above it, there is a brighter and more dazzling existence.

——The sea of ​​stars was still watching her.

Chapter 295 Farewell to Mother

Starlight shatters the darkness.

Over Tokyo Bay.

The sky, which was originally shrouded in darkness, was suddenly replaced by another beautiful scenery.

That is the vast Milky Way and the bright stars.

Of course, there is also the dragon-like girl floating in the air, as if she is in the galaxy.

——Now, she can no longer be called a "human" in the true sense.

But she is not a dragon.

It was the ultimate life form that surpassed humanity and even dragons. It was the final form that could only be evolved after witnessing its own origins.

The magicians in the Type-Moon world call this posture "Magician".

But Shirataki prefers to call this attitude "the ultimate loneliness".

[The ultimate loneliness is when one person is part of a clan.]

[There is no past, and no future. It is like eternal life, wandering in the vast universe.]

The Black Emperor had experienced this kind of loneliness before, and Shirataki was also experiencing it.

And now, this girl named [Uesugi Erie] has finally evolved into this form as "someone" wished.

"So, this wasn't your design?"

The woman standing next to Shirataki rolled her eyes.

She had always been so naive, and even all these years of hardship hadn't completely refined her character - on the contrary, there was a sense of "going backwards the more she lived."

Now, she doesn't even think before she speaks.

But Shirataki chose to forgive her.

Having no brains also has its advantages. At least she doesn't need to worry about all those miscellaneous things - if she encounters something that she doesn't understand, she can just attribute it to him, the "god".

She is just that kind of woman and she can't change.

But from beginning to end, Shirataki's gaze was always on Morgan, who was also floating in the sky and now seemed to be alone and helpless.

Morgan was laughing.

It was a very gentle and slight smile, with just a slight curve at the corner of her mouth - if someone was not familiar with her, they might not be able to tell that she was actually smiling.

But everyone here is familiar with her.

Children, comrades, disciples... Even Yuan Zhisheng, who had only met her a few times, could feel that this woman seemed to be in a good mood.

She was indeed in a good mood.

How should I describe this feeling... It's like an inventor who has achieved nothing in his entire life, occasionally has a few outstanding works but also has major design flaws, and finally creates an ideal "perfect machine" at the last moment of his life.

Eiry's eyes were somewhat sad.

After she evolved into her current form, some things she didn't understand before became clear to her instantly - at the same time, some facts that were bound to happen were already presented before her eyes.

"You're going to die soon, sister."

Uesugi Eri looked at Morgan's body.

It was a body that looked relatively flawless - although it could not compare to the majestic and upright figure of the king who understood people's hearts, it was still well-proportioned and beautiful in just the right way.

But the reality is... that body was already riddled with holes.

Don't underestimate Mordred's full-strength attack.

That was a full-strength attack unleashed as "King" after the Round Table Resolution was passed. While his own strength was significantly enhanced, it also had a fourfold impact on Morgan, his enemy. If Morgan hadn't been "fused" with the Black Emperor's corpse at the time, that single blow would have been enough to kill her.

But she is still alive.

Pretending to be safe and sound, he floated in the air.

"die?"

"If you mean the kind of death where life disappears, then I've actually been dead for a long time."

"In Britain, it perished along with the Age of Gods."

Morgan's tone showed a hint of nostalgia.

She was lucky, as the surname [Pandoragon] brought her infinite glory - but she was also unfortunate, as she paid too much to inherit this surname.

Morgan tilted her head back slightly, her long silver hair drifting in the starlight. Indeed, tiny specks of light were escaping from beneath her torn dress—a sign that her life was about to run out.

But Morgan seemed not to notice these spots of light, and still looked at the girl with starlight blooming on her body in the distance with a calm gaze.

——At this time, everyone else had stopped what they were doing.

The goblin Gawain no longer competes with Gawain in muscle, and the goblin Tristan no longer argues with Gareth about who is the most beloved daughter by her mother.

Even Mordred, who always liked to shout, remained absolutely silent at this moment.

They all knew what was coming.

Morgan would die, but not in the way he was doing now, from the gradual breakdown of his body.
