"Bastard."
After No. 40 came back eight times, Guinevere closed his eyes in pain when he saw Arturia finally falling after being attacked by a fairy's magic in the light curtain.
To be honest, when he started, he really didn't expect that this level would be so torturous.
With a thought, his attribute values have emerged at this moment:
[Blacksmith-Guinevere]
[Rarity: SR]
[Strength: B]
[Agility: C]
[Durability: B]
[Magic: D]
【Lucky: A】
[Noble Phantasm: None]
Although the attributes of two B and one C may sound very ordinary, in fact, for a human being, it is already exaggerated. Even Percival, who was originally known as the strongest human being in Britain, had only three B attributes. , if the current Guinevere were to go against him, he would still have a good chance of winning even if he did not rely on endless trials.
Logically speaking, with Guinevere's current strength, it should be quite easy to defeat all the goblins in Manchester...but those goblins are really too beastly.
After realizing that they were no match for Guinevere, they would soon shift their focus to Artoria - obviously they didn't know in advance that Artoria was on Guinevere's side. , just out of anger, he would kill Artoria.
At this moment, Artoria is eight months pregnant and has to be careful even when walking. How can she be the opponent of those fairies?
Once Guinevere returns to defense and the goblins realize that Guinevere will worry about Artoria, they will directly attack Artoria to contain Guinevere.
No matter how powerful Guinevere is, he is still just a mortal. Facing so many fairies with various magical powers, he does not have a variety of magical skills or cool treasures with powerful effects. He didn't have any fancy long-range means, he just fought with the sword in his hand and his blood, how could he be so scrupulous about it?
——You have to change your thinking.
At least, there must be something that a mortal Guinevere can do.
.........................
[You and Guinevere were discovered by the goblins. 】
[Fortunately, since all the goblins' attention was attracted by Guinevere, who is a human, no goblin noticed you immediately. 】
[At the same time, because you are pregnant and have difficulty moving, Guinevere asked you to hide in a building on the roadside and wait for an opportunity. 】
In the light curtain, Guinevere stared at the goblin running towards them in the distance, and said to her in a low voice:
"Do me a favor, Artoria, just hide here and don't get discovered by them."
"But when you hear me shouting 'Come here', please use your staff to attack the fountain in the middle of the square with all your strength. I will find a way to lure the goblins there so that they can be captured." They were annihilated in one fell swoop.”
"But before that, you must not show your head. If the goblins find you here, you will be in trouble. Therefore, you have to remember the location carefully, and then launch an attack directly in that direction through the wall. Do you understand? "
[Faced with Guinevere’s request, how do you choose? 】
[A: Reject Guinevere's request and fight with him. 】
[B: Obey Guinevere's partial request and hide first, but you must confirm it yourself before attacking. 】
[C: Completely obey Guinevere’s request and execute it meticulously. 】
Arturia hesitated.
Although she really wanted to choose the first option, she also knew that with her current physical condition, going up would only cause trouble for Guinevere, so this option was not used at all. considerate.
The difference between options B and C is simply whether she believes more in her own judgment or Guinevere's.
"...You should really trust Guinevere in this kind of thing, right?"
After all, I have always done everything well, and almost every choice I choose will accurately choose the wrong option, but Guinevere's words... Guinevere can't be wrong.
Compared to himself, who has always been unable to do anything well, Guinevere, who can do everything well, is more trustworthy.
In Artoria's eyes, Guinevere is more trustworthy than herself.
She pressed the third option.
Then, the picture in the simulator changed again. Looking from Artoria's side, she could only see herself hiding behind a certain wall, holding the staff tightly in both hands, listening to the killing cry coming from the other side of the wall. Sound, waiting anxiously, waiting for that moment to arrive.
Although not a long time had passed, every minute and every second on her side felt like a century.
Finally, that moment came. When she heard Guinevere's voice of "Come here", her body moved subconsciously, and the magic power she had accumulated for a long time was fired out in one breath, instantly penetrating the wall. , blasting out in the agreed direction.
After the magic pillar was blasted out, her brain felt dizzy due to excessive consumption of magic power. Artoria's body swayed and she almost fell down, but she inserted the staff in her hand on the ground and held it tightly with both hands. The staff supported her from falling, and then she had the opportunity to raise her head and look towards the direction of her attack.
Then, looking at the scene in front of her, Artoria's thinking stopped.
In her sight, on the path that she ran through, there was no body of any goblin... not even a single goblin was hit.
The only one who was hit was Guinevere, whose body was knocked down in the fountain pool, soaked by the spring water and blood. At this moment, one of his arms had been smashed, and only the other hand was holding it. The broken fountain pool looked at her in disbelief.
"How come..."
Artoria spoke in a daze, but another voice suddenly covered her voice:
"why!"
Guinevere climbed up from the spring with difficulty, blood seeping from the corners of his mouth.
Even so, he still stared at Artoria and roared angrily:
"Why did you betray me! Artoria!"
"I'm not, I obviously..."
Arturia's brain was almost stagnant from the impact of this drastic change, and she just panicked and subconsciously denied it. But just as she said this, she heard a lot of other voices coming from other directions:
"Hey! You did well! You did well!"
"What a beautiful blow! Artoria! I have completely changed my opinion of you!"
"What are you doing! You're really pretending to be the same! Do you still have any need to continue performing now that things have happened?"
The group of fairies scattered all over the place all cheered, applauding Artoria's attack just now.
"Do it again! Do it again! I want to see that damn human being show a little more of that desperate expression!"
"Don't worry! Artoria! We will protect you! Just feel free to kill that human!"
Even more than just applause, the goblins even gathered towards Artoria, preparing to surround her and continue to attack Guinevere.
It wasn't until this moment that Arturia realized what had happened.
In order to protect her, it was Guinevere who took the initiative to cut herself off from her—no, it was Arturia who took the initiative to cut herself off from him.
In her vision that was quickly blurred by tears, Guinevere finally spoke a few words silently to her side, and then he quickly turned around and pressed his hand with his remaining hand. With a broken shoulder, he staggered towards the distance, followed by a large number of fanatical goblins chasing him.
Arturia could no longer see clearly the scenes that followed. Tears completely filled her field of vision, and a large number of crystal tears fell from the corners of her eyes.
Although she didn't hear it, Guinevere's last words and the suppressed raging love had been well read by her fairy eyes:
"Sorry, this is the only solution I can think of."
"Stay alive, Artoria."
"Take my share and love our children well."
Chapter 24 The Disaster of the Beast
Be cursed, be cursed,
May the clan of teeth be cursed.
Sooner or later a beast will appear among you, an extremely powerful black dog with humanoid appearance.
An existence that harbors the laws of the wild, an existence that grows based on the law of the jungle.
A terrifying goblin that survives by devouring the things you love. It's so terrifying that it's hard to imagine that it exists in this world.
"It's nothing. This is a reward for slaying the King of Morse. You're welcome, just accept it."
——A thousand years ago, when the King of Morse, who was designated as the [Great Disaster], was being attacked by the young brave Woodworth, he cursed like this.
Then, hundreds of years later, the goblin was born.
——Bagster the Black Dog.
............................
After parting ways with Artoria, Guinevere ran away with all his strength.
In order to make the acting realistic enough, he directly gave a hand as a price, so that the goblins would not have any additional doubts about Artoria.
But in this case, his own strength will decline greatly, to the point where these goblins can also pose a great threat to him.
The only good thing is that the magic power released by Artoria was quite high and successfully burned the broken part of Guinevere's arm, which also allowed him to not worry about blood loss for the time being.
However, there is still a problem.
Guinevere would not be able to let go of Artoria's association with those goblins. Although this was the only way he could find at the moment, he must find someone who could protect Artoria next. The safest way will do.
Just as Guinevere was thinking hard in his mind, he suddenly caught a trace of red mane from the corner of his eye.
Without hesitation, Guinevere paused, his running movements suddenly changed, and with a shake of the long sword in his hand, he slashed towards the location of the Fang Clan goblin.
However, beyond his expectation, the goblin's long weapon in his hand was actually caught by the quick attack he swung between lightning and flint.
There was a crisp sound of metal collision, and the repulsive force of the weapon came along the hilt of the sword, making Guinevere's mouth numb and his heart tightening.
Just looking at the fight at this moment, the opponent is definitely not mediocre. In his current state, it will be very difficult to fight.
However, before he continued to attack, a rather familiar voice reached his ears:
"Wait a minute! Stop for a moment! It's me!"
Hearing that voice, Guinevere was stunned for a moment, and quickly distanced himself from the Elf of the Fang Clan.
It was only then that he saw clearly that the elf of the Fang Clan in front of him was none other than his old friend, Redela Bit.
A year ago, after Aurora's death, he took refuge with the goblin Gawain and became a guard in Manchester. During this year, he also had many contacts with the Guinevere family, and they were considered old friends.
It's just that goblins who have been friends with the Guinevere family for a year are everywhere in Manchester, including the neighbor who was just killed by Artoria, and Redela Bit, he is really trustworthy ?
Guinevere took two steps back. Although he temporarily put down his sword, his body was still tense, always alert to Redela's possible attack.
"Oh my God, I thought you were dead Will!"
However, Redela didn't notice this at all. She just opened her hands and hugged him while crying. Guinevere couldn't dodge, and then she was hugged by the crying Redela on the spot.
"Stop, stop, stop - I'm going to die, I'm going to die! My ribs are going to be broken!"
——Then it didn’t stop until Guinevere slapped his back hard and screamed.
Although he was inexplicably covered in unknown liquids such as tears and snot, but after Redela's actions just now, Guinevere was sure that he was completely trustworthy, and he couldn't help but feel much more at ease.
Moreover, at this moment, he just needed an elf friend like Redela to help him take care of Artoria.
"No problem! Just leave it to me, Artoria! I promise to give you an unharmed little cutie when we meet again!"
"You may not necessarily be a cutie by then..."
Hearing Redela say this, Guinevere felt slightly relieved, and the heaviness that had been weighing on his heart became much lighter.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Redela looked surprised.
Just when Guinevere was thinking about how to explain human pregnancy to it, a roar that seemed to shatter his eardrums suddenly erupted from a certain direction.
It was like a roar coming from an ancient behemoth, filled with the ominous omen of destruction. Just hearing that sound, Guinevere felt a deep chill run down his spine and into his brain.
"What's going on?" Guinevere asked subconsciously.
"......There"
As if she had lost the ability to speak, Redela muttered for a long time, and finally raised her finger and pointed in a certain direction.
A bad premonition came to Guinevere's mind.
He took a deep breath and turned his head.
"--what is that?"
Even though he had been mentally prepared in advance, Guinevere still felt suffocated when he saw that thing.
In the direction of the lord's mansion, a huge black monster was roaring into the sky.
