As Altoria questioned Rozen with an expressionless face, all the Knights of the Round Table turned their gazes to Rozen.
Gawain's eyes were full of seriousness.
Agnes's eyes were full of coldness.
Trystan did not open his eyes, but for some reason, everyone could feel the existence of his gaze, which revealed an unpleasant sense of pity.
As for Modred, his eyes were even more insolent and ferocious. Even his face was wearing a presumptuous smile. It was as if he could pounce on Rozen at any time and chop off his head with his sword. He was extremely dangerous.
Some of the Knights of the Round Table were observing Rozen's response, while others were casting obvious hostility at him.
"Senior …"
Matthew could not help but tighten her grip on Rozen's hand. Her heartbeat sped up again.
An emotion called anger was erupting from within her.
However, it was clearly not Matthew's feelings.
Matthew could only continue to suppress it.
Rozen, on the other hand, was still as calm and collected as ever.
"Enemy …?"
So Rozen spoke indifferently.
"Depending on the situation, it's not impossible."
Such a blunt response caused the hostile atmosphere in the surroundings to stagnate.
Then, an obscure murderous aura began to attack and shroud Rozen's body.
Obviously, Rozen's answer had made the Knights of the Round Table around him see him as an enemy.
Only Altoria was not only expressionless as usual, but also seemed to take it seriously. Her gaze deepened.
Under such circumstances, Rozen faced the goddess in front of him and made a declaration without fear.
"I believe Your Majesty, the Lion King, knows what I'm doing. It's to save human history and human reason. That's why I crossed many singularities and arrived here."
So Rozen looked straight at the Lion King.
"For this, I want to question you as the master of Chaldea, the only representative of human history."
Question what?
"Why did you build the Holy Capital?" Rozen said calmly, "If it's just to protect humans and refugees from the anomaly of this singularity, there shouldn't be any ritual to select individuals with pure souls, right?"
With the vastness of the Holy Capital, it might be difficult to accommodate all the humans in the singularity. However, if they were to share the burden with the mountain people, it would not be a difficult task.
However, the Holy Capital only took in people with pure souls. First of all, this was puzzling. Moreover, the Holy Capital was the enemy of the people of the mountains. Their hostility was so strong that they did not hesitate to hunt them in the wilderness. This was too cruel.
"Also, the Holy Grail should be in your hands, right?" Rozen said bluntly: "You've already obtained the Holy Grail. If it's to defend humanity, what are you going to do with the Holy Grail?"
If Altoria came to this world to defend humanity, then what she should do was not to possess the power of the Holy Grail, but to build such a Holy Capital and call herself the Lion King.
Whether it was the Heroic Spirit or the Gods, they were no longer existences in this world. They were just the dead of the past, and they should not interfere too much with the ethics of this world. Not to mention that this singularity was just an era that was about to collapse. It was too strange to establish a country here.
If the other party only wanted to settle the refugees before they arrived, or if he just wanted to do a temporary job with a clear conscience, then it would be understandable.
However, Altoria's actions revealed that she definitely did not do it for a short period of peace.
So …
"What are you going to do?" Rozen did not hide his doubts and said, "For me, are you a friend or an enemy?"
Rozen had no intention of hiding at all. Even if the person in front of him was the legendary king of Great Britain, a deified goddess, Rozen was not afraid.
And his attitude not only brought the Knights of the Round Table's killing intent, but also many people's admiration.
As a human, he was able to face the Knight King and the Goddess in such a dignified manner. He was neither servile nor overbearing. This was definitely not an easy feat.
Even the Knights of the Round Table were nervous when facing Altoria's majestic aura, but Rozen completely turned a blind eye to it. Such a performance alone was enough to make the knights admire him.
However, admiration was admiration, after all, the knights were still loyal to their lord.
If Rozen and Altoria were enemies, the Knights of the Round Table would definitely draw their swords against each other and cut off each other's heads without hesitation.
In contrast, Altoria's attitude toward Rozen was really aloof, no sadness, no joy, no anger, and always aloof.
Then …
"Since ancient times, the relationship between humans and the gods has always been entangled."
Altoria spoke in an ethereal tone.
"Sometimes humans will pray for the protection of the gods, but sometimes they will resist the will of the gods. Sometimes they are friends, and sometimes they are enemies. Even if the gods have been annihilated and the gods have left the world, the entanglement between humans and the gods has always existed."
"The relationship between humans and the gods is still extraordinary. Humans have never been able to live without the protection of the gods, and the gods are also unable to live without the faith of humans."
"And I, once the king of humans, am now the spirit of heaven. Under the circumstances where the Magic King burned away human reason and destroyed humans for his own ambition, for the sake of humanity and to leave some hope for the future, I naturally had to do it."
Altoria answered Rozen's question.
"What I want to do is the gospel of mankind, and what I do is also for mankind. Apart from that, I have no other purpose."
With that said, Altoria had no intention of explaining what she did at all.
"You are the last defender of human reason and the last master of mankind. To be able to get the protection of two gods, you must be a special individual among humans. Therefore, I entertained you and let you enter the Holy Capital."
"You are my recognized visitor. If you want to stay in the Holy Capital, the Knights of the Round Table will welcome you on my behalf."
"If you want the Holy Grail, I can also give it to you, but not now, but after everything is over."
"That's all I have to say. Think about it, human."
After leaving such words, Altoria turned around and disappeared like a flash of light.
"Farewell, Your Highness!" "Farewell!"
The Knights of the Round Table bowed their heads and sent her off.
The divine aura that shook the entire throne disappeared.
So Rozen watched Altoria leave without saying anything and fell into contemplation.
As for Matthew, she was holding her heart tightly.
There was an inexplicable sadness.
