They already have a chat group, why bother with the plot?

In Saber's contracting pupils, her sword pierced Lancelot's chest.

Xiao Mo was also shocked.

It happened too suddenly.

No one expected that Lancelot would rush over so angrily just to get himself killed.

snap

The helmet of the black knight, pierced through the chest by a sharp sword, was shattered, and his long, jet-black hair was disheveled.

Beneath the helmet, contrary to the imagined ferocity, Lancelot actually looked extremely satisfied.

His handsome face was etched with weariness.

But the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.

Looking at Saber, who was in a daze, he shifted his body slightly and pressed his entire weight onto her.

then

He smelled the reassuring scent emanating from Saber, and words of relief came from his mouth.

"My king, I have waited for this day for far too long."

No one expected that Lancelot would choose to die.

But this is undoubtedly the scene that Kiritsugu Emiya wanted to see.

On the fifth day of the Holy Grail War, the second Servant finally died.

It really wasn't easy!

At this moment, Saber was completely stunned and stood there.

She watched Lancelot's life gradually fade away, as if she were waking from a nightmare.

I felt completely disoriented.

Xiao Mo was also stunned.

Based on her understanding of Lancelot, she could have easily dodged or deflected that sword strike, but Lancelot simply took it steadily!

There was no intention of avoiding it at all.

This can only mean one thing.

Lancelot chose to die!

Mordred's expression changed slightly after realizing this.

No wonder Master said Lancelot wouldn't harm his father.

So he was determined to die!?

But why?

Mordred asked Ling Yu in his mind.

"We'll talk about that later. If we don't do anything soon, Lancelot might really die." Ling Yu's leisurely voice echoed in Mordred's mind.

Mordred was taken aback, then exclaimed excitedly, "Master, can you save him?"

As fellow Knights of the Round Table and colleagues, it would be a lie to say there was no affection between them.

If the other party hadn't brandished his sword at her beloved father, she wouldn't have stood against him.

"Okay, hurry up, or you'll miss your chance," Ling Yu said with a smile.

"it is good!"

Xiao Mo didn't dare to linger and quickly walked away.

At this moment, Lancelot had been gently placed on the ground by Saber.

Seeing Mordred approach, Saber asked in a hoarse voice, "Mordred, am I really not suited to be a king?"

"Then pass the throne to me."

For some reason, on a whim, Mordred blurted out her thoughts.

Saber: "..."

Emiya Kiritsugu: “…”

Ling Yu and the others: "..."

Everyone fell silent.

In ancient times, when someone forced the emperor to abdicate, they would decline three times and offer their position three times. But you're just asking for the throne right off the bat.

This is truly a generous gift of crabs.

"Okay, I was just saying, you don't have to take it seriously."

Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat quiet, Mordred realized that she had spoken at the wrong time and place, and quickly stopped Saber from speaking with one hand.

She looked at Lancelot, who was lying on the ground, his body covered in particles, and who seemed on the verge of disappearing.

Although he was a little unsure, he still followed Ling Yu's instructions, raised the Sword of Excalibur, and then, without hesitation, stabbed it into Lancelot's heart!

"What are you doing!?"

Saber gasped in surprise upon seeing this.

He instinctively gripped the holy sword in his hand.

Mordred didn't say anything, because she was quite confused herself.

If this weren't Ling Yu, she would suspect that someone was treating her like a fool.

And with the insertion of the Sword of Excalibur.

A holy light spread from the blade, instantly covering Lancelot's entire body.

"what are they doing?"

Emiya Kiritsugu, watching this scene through the sniper's lens, frowned slightly.

Last hit?

"Zizzi"

Wisps of black gas emanated from Lancelot's body.

It was as if it had been purified.

The black aura surrounding Lancelot visibly disappeared, gradually revealing the purple color that had been hidden beneath the black.

As the light gradually faded, Lancelot, clad in purple-gold armor, reappeared before everyone.

"this!"

Saber's breath hitched, staring in utter shock at Lancelot, who had returned to normal.

At this moment, the black mist dissipated, and Lancelot returned to the way she remembered him.

"His rank changed; he went from Berserker to Saber..."

Joan of Arc murmured.

The tone was equally incredulous.

Realizing this, she looked at Ling Yu, who simply smiled slightly.

On the ground

Lancelot's somewhat scattered consciousness gradually cleared.

He opened his eyes, glanced around blankly, and then sat up abruptly when he saw Saber and Mordred.

"Hey, did you sleep well?"

Xiao Mo waved and greeted him.

"My king, Mordred, I'm not..."

Lancelot had just opened his mouth.

It felt like a fragrant breeze was blowing in.

"That's wonderful, that's wonderful! You've recovered, Lord Lancelot!" Saber hugged Lancelot excitedly.

His crying and helpless appearance was nothing like that of a king.

Seeing Saber hugging him and crying, Lancelot froze on the spot, looking at Mordred blankly.

The latter shrugged, indicating that he would take responsibility for his own mistakes.

Lancelot was helpless.

He gently patted Saber's back, comforting her while patiently explaining his regret that he hadn't been punished after his relationship with Guinevere was exposed, but instead was forgiven by King Arthur.

He failed to provide timely support at the Battle of Camlann Hill, which led to the king's death, and he spent the rest of his life in regret.

"So, you fought so desperately against your father so that he could judge you?" Mordred asked, puzzled, after hearing everything.

“Yes, if the king were to kill me of his own volition, it would offer some solace to my life filled with regret,” Lancelot remarked.

"Can't you speak?" Mordred asked.

If you want to be insulted or killed, you don't have to resort to fighting.

“In my Berserker state, I lost the ability to speak,” Lancelot said helplessly.

Mordred: "...Okay."

“But judging from my current appearance, I must have been rescued by someone. Was it Ling Yu?” Lancelot asked Mordred.

In his mind, only he possessed these miraculous abilities.

After all, the other party could bring back Tokiomi Tohsaka, who was already dead, so it would be even more important to bring him back to life, even though he hadn't completely dissipated.

"That's right, my master is invincible." Little Mo said proudly after hearing Lancelot's words.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mordred's eyes suddenly sharpened.

He swung his longsword.

With a bang, she shot down a bullet.

Then several armed assassins appeared and surrounded the three of them.

"Why do these damned bugs have to appear at this time?"

Mordred glared at the assassins who were closing in on him.

Didn't you see they just cleared up the misunderstanding?

She was unaware that Kiritsugu Emiya and Kirei Kotomine had joined forces.

Not to mention Mordred, even Saber didn't know.

And it was at this time.

"In the name of the Command Seal"

"Saber, unleash your Noble Phantasm and kill the two before you."

Kiritsugu Emiya, hidden in the shadows, calmly raised his right hand and used a Command Seal.

In an instant, the Wind King's barrier erupted, revealing a golden glow, and the previously harmonious scene of reunion suddenly became tense.

Chapter 259 Leaving

"Father, what's wrong?!"

Mordred gasped in surprise upon seeing the suddenly unleashed Excalibur.

Lancelot also looked nervous.

of course

He didn't think Saber would attack him, but rather he was thinking of Saber's Master.

as expected
