My mother's love song

"Ahh... maybe I will fail."

"But don't worry, you are not alone. Wherever you can't see... I am always here."

"As long as you are an excellent king, I will reward you with nectar no matter how much filth I am entangled with."

"so."

"My king, my mate, my apostle... my lovely Altria."

The boy gently hugged the girl's head.

Even if it's for me.

"Please send relief to the earth."

……

……

……

"How did you fall asleep in a place like this? You'll catch a cold."

A voice was heard in the distance near Altria's ears.

She slowly opened her eyes and saw the boy putting a sheet over his body.

"…Rod."

"Ah, did I wake you up?"

"No such thing."

The Lion King shook his head and looked around.

Did I... fall asleep on the throne?

Because of my pregnancy, I have become a little sleepy recently.

I can't let the child's father see my embarrassing side.

The Lion King straightened his back subconsciously.

Rhodes noticed her abnormality: "Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, no problem."

"Since Altria said so."

Rhodes said nothing more, just stood beside her, holding her hand without saying a word.

"I just had a dream."

Rhodes said with a smile: "Did you dream about me?"

"Ah."

Looking at the boy's gentle eyes, the Lion King whispered softly.

"At times like this, I really want to scold my past self for forgetting something so important.

I finally understand Rod, I may have fallen in love with you 1500 years ago."

That's why I was attracted to you when I first saw you in Fuyuki.

"Huh!?" She found Rhodes's inexplicable expression with his mouth half open very interesting.

Thank you, Rod.

You are silently guarding and accompanying me in a place where I can't see.

It was you who gave me courage and strength when I was desperate and helpless.

"Hey, what? What are you talking about? Altria, what's going on?"

Rhodes looked at the king who suddenly understood with a confused look on his face.

The Lion King placed a finger to his lips and winked at the boy he loved.

"Secret~"

It doesn't matter if I don't tell you about this.

Because I believe in you.

No matter what the future will be like, you will definitely find me, encourage me, and accompany me.

That's why I fell hopelessly in love with you.

Rhode frowned and said, "Tsk, forget it."

The two looked at each other, and then smiled in tacit understanding at the same time.

They stared down into the distance.

The singularity of the Sacred Round Table domain has been peeled off from the planet and from human nature, and soon the Storm Tower will be completed.

An ideal country that will not be affected even if the planet is burned by the Magic King is about to be built.

After a while, the pure white goddess suddenly spoke softly.

"I'm sorry, Rod."

Rhodes disagreed: "I don't think there is anything worthy of your apology."

"I can't have this child. This is the end of it... This world is about to end. I'm sorry."

The Lion King pursed his lips and said: If possible, I really want to hug this child with my own hands.

But this is already an impossible dream.

Regardless of whether the next war is won or not, everything in this time and space will officially end today.

"Don't say that, Altria. I'm already very happy, and I'm really happy that you want to have my child.

Coming to this era with you is the best decision I have ever made in my life."

Rhodes stared into her eyes and said, "I should be the one to apologize.

...If you can't be a real mother, it's all because I'm a useless man.

The only thing I can't support is your fight with Morgan, I'm sorry."

“Haha, don’t say that, Rhodes… this is good, this is the kind of man that Sister Wang and I fall in love with.

If you take sides between me and Sister Wang, you will no longer be yourself."

The two of them hugged each other.

Their foreheads were pressed tightly against each other, and their lips were passionately intertwined.

After the kiss, Altria stared into Rod's eyes.

"Rod, guess...what am I thinking about now?"

"Thinking about something bitter."

Rod's lips fell on her collarbone.

The Lion King smiled, put his hand on the back of his head and spoke softly.

"That's right. As expected of my queen, she is called [Demon Queen Dorako]. She is very good at understanding the king's mood."

"Hehe... That's really outrageous, Altria."

Rhode nuzzled the tip of the Lion King's nose and said with a smile, "The decisive battle is imminent and everyone is marching towards here, but the King of the Holy City is still thinking about being intimate with a man."

"Forgive me, Rod."

There was an enchanting luster in his golden pupils, and the Lion King breathed warm and fragrant air into his ears.

"It can't be helped. Whenever I'm in front of you, I'm just a woman.

Even if it’s only for now… let me forget my ideals and mission, and give me happiness, okay?”

"I don't care even if you become the king of a fallen country, okay?"

"Yeah. Rod, I love you... hold me."

The boy nodded deeply.

He placed his hands on the Lion King's shoulders and gently pushed him down.

"Me too... I love you, Altria...

Let's stay together until the last moment..."

Chapter 292 The Mother of the Round Table's Affirmation

Then, the day of the decisive battle came with gentle sunshine.

When the sun just rose, the Chaldeans, Lancelot and the knights, the Hassans and the mountain people's army, and the army of divine beasts sent by the Sun King for reinforcement gathered together in the wilderness in front of the holy city.

"…The surveillance status is good. The time at your location is 8 o'clock.

The sky was clear and cloudless, and the Holy City was within sight. The enemy had already discovered our advance and deployed a large number of soldiers at the main gate.

The Allied Forces and the Holy City Army are on the verge of a war. If either side takes another step, it will be a signal for war. Ritsuka, are you ready? "

Facing Romani's confirmation of the situation, Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded silently.

The deployment for the decisive battle has been completed.

The first to launch the attack are the cavalry troops of Knight Lancelot. As they assault the main gate of the holy city, they will be bombarded by arrows from the city walls.

The damage caused should be enormous, but fortunately King Osmandis's army of divine beasts will interfere on the west side of the holy city.

The maximum number of cavalry troops that can reach the main gate is probably only 60% of the total number. Even so, there is no other way except to march head-on.

Zhuwan, Baimao, Jingmi and the people of the mountain were responsible for climbing over the city walls and eliminating the archers on the walls, while Xuanzang Sanzang was alone as a guerrilla force galloping on the battlefield.

Ritsuka Fujimaru, Mashu, Morrigan, and Da Vinci, four people from Chaldea formed a separate action team and were also mixed into the infantry unit.

Their goal is to reach the highest throne in the holy city, passing over the corpses of their companions.

"Are you ready, Mash?"

"Leave it to me, senior!"

Mashu tightened her cute face, nodded, and clenched the shield in her hand.

The girl who had shown herself timid in front of the gate of the Holy City last time seemed to be nowhere to be found.

"Shielder."

The fake Black Saber Morgan came to Mashu silently like a ghost.

"…I have something I want to talk to you about alone. Do you mind?"

"Eh? No, that... yes, please tell me what to do."

Morgan took Mashu to a place away from everyone.

"What a rare combination... This is the first time I've seen Miss Alter take the initiative to talk to Mashu."

“…What’s going on?”

Da Vinci tilted his head in confusion and spoke without any tension.

"Does this mean that our king wants to expel Mashu from the Round Table and confiscate her shield?"

"No, no, no, it's impossible... it's not Da Vinci's biological father."

"It's too much!"

"What's wrong, Miss Alter?"

Mash followed the goddess Morrigan, staring at her back with a puzzled look.

I'm a little nervous...

After all, I am also a member of the Round Table. It is natural for me to be nervous in front of King Arthur, Mashu thought.

"Shielder, although this is just my guess, you should be very scared, right?"

Morgan's question was very direct, so Mashu couldn't help but be stunned.
