The King of Elden does not die alone!

"It's the same reason as yours."

"The same reason as mine?" Altria didn't understand immediately.

Then Mia replied:

"It is to become a qualified king."

Chapter 65. When the Stars of Earth Shine (Part 2)

Second update.

-

Even though it was stated clearly, Altria still didn't quite understand.

Because she herself is the King of Britain.

After all, it was she who pulled out the sword from the stone, and all Merlin had ever told her was that she would become the King of Britain.

So, which country is Mia the king of?

Artoria, who was confused, also asked the same question.

"I come from a place called Junction."

Mia turned her head and glanced at Melina beside her.

Melina tilted her head and said nothing.

"Border?" Altria heard a term she had never heard before.

Whether it was geography or history, she was well versed in it as she was taught by Merlin and Sir Ector when she was growing up.

She knew by heart the legends and history that the Celts had always passed down orally.

She also knew a thing or two about the myths of distant Rome.

But whether in geography, history, myths or legends, she had never heard of a place called "Junction".

Mia did not stop talking: "If I were to explain it in detail, I'm afraid it would take more than one night."

"So, let me explain briefly. My hometown, the Borderland, is a region located at the junction of many worlds."

"..." Altria thought hard.

She has not conducted any systematic study on mysticism.

After all, she had been taught to be a knight since she was young.

If Merlin were here and heard what Mia said, he would definitely be able to understand more clearly what the border area Mia was talking about was like.

If it were him, he would probably say something obscure like "outside" or "inside".

But unfortunately, Altria does not have as rich knowledge of mysticism as Merlin.

If you must say, her knowledge of the mysticism is at most that of an ordinary person who is relatively knowledgeable, and has nothing to do with being a magician.

Of course, she was not stupid, and soon asked Mia questions based on her own understanding.

"The other world you're talking about, is it something like the 'Land of Shadows'?"

The Kingdom of Shadows is the netherworld in Celtic mythology that accepts the dead and their souls.

There is nothing wrong with identifying the Land of Shadows as the 'world of the dead'.

Since the Kingdom of Shadows is the world of the dead, then the place where they are standing at this moment can be called the 'world of the living'.

Since there is a world of the living and a world of the dead, it makes sense that there would be other different worlds.

In Germanic mythology, the world tree Yggdrasil connects nine worlds.

These legends may not be true descriptions, but for Altria, they are indeed easier to understand.

Mia nodded: "It is indeed similar."

It's such a pleasure to communicate with smart children.

She continued, "In order to become the king of the borderland, I came to this world to train myself."

Then, pretending to be surprised, he said, "But, you are also a future king?"

Since we have this ability to travel through the world.

You should also become thicker-skinned accordingly.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to integrate into other worlds.

"Even though that's the case..." Artoria blushed in embarrassment: "But I'm still working hard to get the recognition of the Sword of the Chosen King. So, I'm also in the process of training."

"So," Mia smiled, "it seems we have a lot in common."

A look of joy appeared on Altria's face.

“It feels like I’ve made a friend.”

Mia said in a doting tone, "When it comes to making friends, everyone will have a tacit understanding without having to say it out loud."

And in Altria's heart, the competitive spirit facing her peers was finally hard to suppress.

Since we are all girls on the journey to becoming kings.

"In that case, why don't we compete to see who can stand on his own first!"

"Well..."

Altria's sudden jump in thinking made Mia hesitate.

Wait!

What's there to hesitate about?

This is an invitation from Altria Lily!

"it is good!"

As soon as she figured this out, Mia immediately nodded and agreed to Altria's proposal.

Altria happily stretched out her hand to Mia, and then clasped the two palms tightly together.

"In that case, let's travel together from now on?"

Taking this opportunity, Mia made a proposal to her peers.

"it is good!"

As for Altria, she agreed without hesitation.

Then he came to his senses: "Ah... I still need to seek the consent of Brother Kai and Merlin for this matter."

"Altria~ Can I ask you for this?"

"Eh? Please, I..."

"It's already late, isn't it?" Mia began to complain: "Merlin and Kai, I'm not very familiar with them, it's probably not a good time to disturb them now, so can I ask you for a favor?"

"Oh well."

The knight princess, who would not refuse anyone, accepted the request.

Then he trotted out of the stable ahead of Mia.

"Oh, by the way," he turned back after just leaving the house: "Good night, Natalis!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared without a trace.

"Hmm..." Recalling the cute face of the young Altria.

Mia nodded solemnly.

"Come on, Torrett."

Torret shook his mane and returned to the sentry post.

When I walked out of the stable, Altria was gone.

"Melina."

"I'm here."

"It seems that we have to stay in this world for a long time."

"It's a beautiful world," Melina replied.

Just got here.

But just seeing those lively villagers, I can feel the kindness given by others.

After seeing this fragmented war, life on the border no longer exists.

And there was the pure smile on Altria's face, which looked like Mia's.

She then understood why Mia said that this place was like a paradise compared to the border area.

Even if this village is just a corner in a remote mountain forest.

Even Melina had the desire to stay here.

"What I want to do is to restore happiness and smiles to this world at the border."

Mia looked up at the dark night sky.

"Yeah, you did. So, I understand."

Melina looked at Mia's back and quietly reached out her hand to her.

He hesitated for a moment in mid-air, then took the initiative to hold Mia's hand.

Mia looked back at Melina with some surprise.

Melina was clearly shy.

I didn't dare to look Mia in the eye.

Even though no one could see Mia's eyes, she couldn't.

Mia pursed her lips slightly, smiled and raised her head again.

At this moment, the dark clouds dispersed with the wind.

When the clouds clear, you can see the moon and the starry sky.

Those twinkling stars are scattered in the vast night sky, sometimes arranged in groups, sometimes shining independently and lonely.

That is the starry sky, the starry sky of the earth.

There is no obstruction, nor is it an illusion; it is the real light of stars twinkling countless light years away.

Mia looked straight at the starry sky.

"Let's go find a high place!"

Chapter 66. Gaia: There's something dirty!

Mia ran, looking up at the stars.

In that endless picture of the universe, deep in the mysterious stars.

It seems as if there is an inexplicable attraction coming from the blood.

She wanted to get closer.

Are the houses in the village tall enough?

Obviously not.

What about the mountains in the distance?

It’s probably at least several hundred meters high.

But compared to the starry sky countless light years away, being close to these few hundred meters is meaningless.

But at least the view from the mountain is wider.

Mia's staff flashed, and the next moment she appeared on the top of a hill several thousand meters away.
