Rhodes had healed all her injuries, and the bandages wrapped all over her body were scattered all over the floor.

The sunlight pouring in from the window gently covered the rebellious knight's snow-white skin like a veil, giving her a layer of dreamy color.

Mordred's back, without a trace of fat, was slightly arched, and his long golden hair, after being untied by a ponytail, was spread on his smooth back, making him look both wild and sensational.

The slender arms embraced the boy's neck, and Mordred buried his face in his shoulders, making cute little breathing sounds.

"Well, Father... No, that brat is a big liar..."

"This kid doesn't know how to be gentle with women... Let... Let me do it..."

The girl's mysterious whispering in her sleep made Rhode turn slightly to look at the rebellious knight sleeping on her shoulder.

Bathed in the warm sunshine, Mordred's sleeping face did not look as elegant as usual. Instead, it had a pure beauty that fascinated Rhodes.

Perhaps because he went to bed too late last night, Rhodes felt a little tired this morning.

"Xiao Mo, it's dawn."

Rod blew gently into her ear.

"Stop making trouble, let me sleep a little longer...ah!"

After Mordred muttered a few words, he suddenly opened his eyes.

Years of military career allowed her to switch from a sleeping state to a waking state in an instant.

"...?"

Mordred, who had just woken up, stared at Rhodes' face and did not understand the current situation at once.

Now she was sitting on the boy, hugging his neck.

The person under him also reached out and gently stroked the hair on the back of Mordred.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!"

Like a frightened wild cat, Mordred screamed and jumped up.

The girl quickly grabbed the quilt and wrapped herself in it, retreating to the corner of the bed, staring at Rhodes angrily: "Why are you in my room? What did you do to me while I was injured? I'll kill you!"

Rhode stared at her and sighed with some regret: "Ah, don't move. ...... What a waste."

"Well."

Mordred, who ran away from Rhodes and hid in a corner, seemed to finally remember what happened last night.

The proof was the bright red blush on the girl's face at that moment.

Mordred raised her arm and looked at her skin, still seemingly unable to believe that she was truly healed now.

"Really... All the curses in my body have disappeared. Not only that, I feel more magical than ever before..."

The rebellious knight's shoulders were shaking with joy, his emerald eyes were misty, and he was so excited that he seemed to be about to cry.

"This way... I can fight for my father again."

"Of course I won't lie to you. That's great, Xiao Mo."

Rhodes narrowed his eyes and smiled at her.

"..."

Mordred was attracted by her smile for a moment, then hurriedly turned away with slightly red cheeks.

She said, glaring at Rod out of the corner of her eye.

"Well, this, this kind of thing... I already knew it! If you can't cure me, I will definitely kill you!"

Then, she seemed to be very embarrassed about her disheveled hair. She stared at Rhode warily and reached her hand to the back of her neck to tie her hair into a ponytail.

"Turn your face away."

"No."

In fact, Rhodes has a hobby that he has never told anyone, which is that he likes to watch girls with their hair tied up.

The shoulders that showed through the cascading blonde hair were truly stunningly beautiful.

Rhodes stared at Mordred with his hair tied up, admiring the pure and youthful beauty.

Feeling helpless about his fixed gaze, the girl sighed, "Whatever you want."

Mordred tied his hair up, wrapped the sheets around himself as a cloak, and jumped off the bed.

"I'm going to take a shower. You should go back... Father will get suspicious if we don't see him all night, right?"

Rhodes nodded: "That's true."

She did not go directly into the bathroom, but turned her burning face away and glared at Rhodes dimly.

"Don't let the Knight of the Righteousness and the other Knights of the Round Table see it."

"of course."

"Humph, I'm glad you understand. Ah~ah~ my whole body feels like it's falling apart, really, it's really exhausting."

Mordred complained and walked into the bathroom.

Then the sound of water was heard from the bathroom, and the frosted glass door was gradually covered with a layer of hazy mist.

When he heard the sound of a girl humming in a good mood from the other side of the door, Rhodes left the bed and walked straight into the bathroom.

"Wow! How did you get in here?!"

"I want to take a bath, too, Xiao Mo."

"If you want to take a shower, go back to your own home and take a shower!"

"Let's wash together."

“No! Don’t, don’t come near me! I’m going to chop you! I’m definitely going to kill you… ow!”

The bathroom suddenly became quiet.

The girl wanted to loudly rebuke the shameless brat, but her stubborn lips were blocked by Rhodes.

During the kiss, the emerald eyes that were originally staring at each other with resistance gradually became covered with a layer of sentimental mist.

……

When Rhodes decided to leave the mansion, it was almost dusk that afternoon.

Although the time I stayed with Xiao Mo exceeded the expected time, it was not without gain.

Thanks to Rhodes's efforts, Mordred's favorability level rose from [Resistance] to [Submission].

They even agreed to turn their underground relationship from "one night only" into "long-term".

"Then you take a rest first, I'm leaving."

Rhodes stood up from the bed, glanced at Mordred beside him, and said to her while putting on his clothes.

"You should report to Aguguiwen tomorrow morning and let him assign you a task."

"Oh~" Mordred hesitated and asked, "Are you going back to the Holy City?"

"No, I'm leaving the Holy City for a few days."

Hearing this, surprise flashed in the girl's eyes.

"What? You're actually leaving the Holy City?"

Mordred jumped up from the bed, grabbed his collar and asked, "Are you planning to run away? Pull up your pants and run away?"

Rhode pressed her hand and said, "How is that possible? I have to do an important mission that affects the fate of the world."

"Humph, you're full of lies. But..."

Mordred turned his slightly hot face to the side and said quietly.

"Be safe. If you die, father will be sad... so will I."

"..."

The rebellious girl suddenly showed her spoiled girlfriend-like side, which made Rhodes' heart flutter.

"...Ah, I see. Even if it's just to save you and your daughter from being widows, I have to keep living."

"They're not mother and daughter! They're father and son!"

Mordred threw a soft punch at his chest in a coquettish manner.

"While I'm away from the Holy City, I'll leave Altria in your care."

Rhodes leaned down and placed a kiss on Mordred's lips.

"…Come back soon."

"Ah."

He nodded.

I'm just going to take the Grand Assassin's head. I'll be back soon.

……

……

……

After rescuing Hassan of Serenity, the Chaldean group first returned to the West Village from the fortress to reunite with the goddess Morrigan.

Just when they were planning to reach the Temple of Azrael before Agraguiwen, smoke signals rose in the East Village.

What awaited them in the East Village was a horrifying sight.

The burning village was littered with dead and wounded.

An unprecedented number of Righteous Knights are committing arson and slaughter.

Compared to the tragic scene before his eyes, Mordred's attack was considered a minor one.

"The fire and smoke were so huge that I couldn't see clearly!"

"No, everyone scatters! If we are targeted by the enemy in this situation!"

"But we have to help the villagers!"

The group fights against the Lion King's army that is attacking the village.

Xuanzang Sanzang used his hair to transform into a large number of bodies, and the scene turned into a melee between two evenly matched people.

Suddenly a cold wind blew, and Sanzang's several clones were cut into pieces.

"What happened!? Sanzang's clone was killed in mid-air!?"

"No one is doing anything!? Is this the blessing of their gods!?"

Everyone looked into the distance and saw a knight walking out from the enemy army.

"Ahh, I'm so sad..."

Mash interrupted, "It's one of the Knights of the Round Table, the Demon String Master Tristan!"

The one who ordered the Knights of the Round Table to start a massacre in the East Village tonight was the red-haired knight Tristan.

Tristan, who received the blessing of [Reversal], lost his nobleness and justice as a knight, and commanded the Knights of Justice to launch an absolute "punishment" against the unarmed foreign race.

"It's so... sad that I can't help but smile. Fate has finally caught up with you."

The truly Blind Knight said with a sad face: "Knight of the Round Table, Tristan. I came to take your heads.

Life is unpredictable. Sometimes, meeting also means parting. Your fate will be burned to ashes along with this shabby village.

Ahhh... I am so sad. I have to send the unblessed to Hades again."

"That is Sir Tristan under the Lion King... How could he be so cruel?"

Tristan turned a deaf ear to Matthew's cries of grief.

“The men who remained in the village have been dealt with. After we deal with you, it will be the turn of the villagers who fled into the caves.”

Hassan the Cursed Arm loudly questioned, "Are you going to kill everyone, young and old, men and women... Why did you go this far! Is this the chivalry of the Lion King... Arthur Pendragon!?"

"Ahhh...I'm so sad."

Tristan raised an eyebrow and sighed quietly.
