That night, the sound of thunder outside the window was so loud that Bedivere could not sleep.
Not only that, he was also a little flustered. He did not know why, but he felt a little uncomfortable … Was it because he was about to be separated from someone he knew and face an unknown fate? He felt that it was not just that.
"Master seems to be very distressed."
"Waa — Oh!"
"Boom!"
"Shh ~ ~ If you shout too loudly, you will be discovered, right? That would be very difficult to explain! But, master's luck was pretty good just now. The sound of thunder just happened to cover up your shout. "
Bedivere blinked his eyes to indicate that he understood. At this moment, his mouth was tightly covered. The man with a crescent moon in his eyes and a gorgeous divine aura looked at him and tilted his head innocently.
"Oh, this is the first time we meet in this state right? My name is Sanchū Sōjin. Well, as one of the five swords in the world, I am known as the most beautiful.
I was born at the end of the eleventh century. In other words, well, I am already an old man. Hahaha — But, I seem to have scared you. "
"I'm sorry, it's because an unknown person suddenly appeared in the room … Is this the transformation of the Sword and Blade Fu?"
Bedivere looked at the person in front of him curiously. As expected of the most beautiful Sword and Blade Fu! Actually, the way he wanted to violate the rules was to let Sanchū transform into a physical body to help him fight against the magical beasts. Then, he would bring the magical beasts to the palace.
"That, is it okay to come out like this?"
"..."
Sanchū Sōjin did not say anything. He only quietly looked at Bedivere with an unreadable expression. It was only until Bedivere felt uneasy and wanted to apologize that he smiled.
"It seems that you have some misunderstanding about our existence. Because, I don't feel that I am hated."
"Eh? Hated? Why would you say that? " Bedivere did not understand. "Your Highness Sanchū, you have helped me so much. You are also so handsome. Why would I hate you?"
"That's good."
Sanchū smiled and nodded. He also felt that this should be the case. After following Bedivere for so long, he more or less understood his character. Naturally, he knew that this was the truth.
"It's just that I've been stuck in the saber for too long, so I wanted to come out and get some fresh air. I just happened to see my Lord so troubled, so I couldn't help but ask."
"Ah, thank you for your concern." Bedivere was a little embarrassed, but then he suddenly realized, "Get some fresh air? You mean … it's boring in the main body? "
"It's fine when I don't have a body, but once I've tasted freedom, it's hard to go back to my original state."
"I'm sorry …"
"Why apologize?"
"Before this, I always thought that Death God Fu liked to stay in his real body, so I …"
"Didn't they tell you that it's best not to let me out?"
"That's part of the reason, but the main reason is that I didn't think about you at all. You have helped me so much … I'm really sorry."
Bedivere sincerely apologized. It was only after meeting Mikazuki Munechika that he had a more intuitive understanding of the Death God of Swords. When he covered Mikazuki Munechika's mouth just now, he could clearly feel the other party's body temperature and breathing. Now that he had his own thoughts after communicating with him, he was no different from a "human"!
Previously, he always felt that "Sanchū Sōjin" was a bit like an AI system that was equipped with missions in novels. His polite words were just a habit. But now, he realized that Sanchū Sōjin was a living "intelligent life form". Naturally, he was very sorry for his neglect.
"Well, why don't we act alone in the future, or let you out for a walk when we rest? It doesn't matter where we go. "
"Hahaha, what a good child to take care of the elderly."
Seeing that Bedivere was serious, Sanchū couldn't help but laugh. He touched Bedivere's shiny and smooth silver hair and then said seriously, "I don't think so. Their warning is right. My appearance is likely to bring about accidents. Besides, I need to consume your energy to maintain my body. This time, I just feel that we haven't talked to each other, so I want to meet you. "
"Then …"
"As a senior who has been through this before, I need to advise you. My Lord, you are too close to that group of people. When the time comes, it may become an obstacle to maintaining history."
"…"
Under the background of lightning and thunder, Mikazuki Munechika, who was standing by the window like a celestial being, spat out cruel words that made Bedivere's heart empty.
"My Lord, you are a person with a mission. To them, you are just a passerby."
…
"Lily, don't you think that your relationship with Bedivere is too close for no reason?"
Coincidentally, in Lily's room, not far from Bedivere's room, a similar conversation occurred.
"Sensei, I —"
"There is no reason. Lily, I think you understand that now you only have two choices. When you said that you want to go back, I think you have already mentally prepared yourself! "
Merlin's eyes were indifferent as he looked at Lily who was in pain. His expression didn't soften at all. This was a necessary step to become a King.
"First, don't confess. Then let 'Lily', the female Knights, disappear from everyone's memory forever, including that Bedivere. Second, confess. But remember, he can only be your Knights! As a King, you know what to do. "
"I choose … First."
Lily's green eyes flashed with sadness, but it immediately turned into determination. In fact, she had already made up her mind. She just couldn't bear to delay it. Now that Merlin had spoken, she naturally chose the path that she had already decided on.
"A King doesn't need unnecessary feelings. But …"
Let that lively, lovely, and righteous girl, who had left a good impression in Bedivere's heart, maintain her bright and beautiful appearance, and keep her in his heart forever!
"As long as I have Sensei's magic, no one can see through my disguise."
"Is this your decision? Then, as you wish … "
Merlin smiled with satisfaction. His eyes were full of praise. He was pleased that Lily … No, King Arthur made the right choice. As for the magic of camouflage, he would naturally prepare it for the King. No one would notice anything wrong.
The flag had been raised.
When it was time to say goodbye the next day, no one was in high spirits. The most obvious ones were Bedivere and Lily who were obviously unfamiliar with each other. The two who had been educated by others were obviously much quieter. When they parted, they didn't even know how to say goodbye.
In the end, it was Lily who spoke first.
"Bedivere, will you always remember me?"
"Of course! Lily, you are already an important friend of mine! "
Bedivere answered without hesitation. Looking at Lily's determined eyes, he inexplicably had a bad feeling in his heart. His face also paled a little.
"Lily, you … Are you going to do something dangerous?! Or is someone forcing you to marry someone you don't like?! "
Bedivere suddenly thought of his own conjecture. He felt that Lily's identity was very likely to be King Arthur's sister, Morgan. However, that person seemed to be the villain? But now, this cute girl was completely unrelated to the villain. In other words, could it be that she had experienced something very painful that caused her personality to change?!
According to his hazy memories, Morgan's marriage didn't seem to be very happy? And she seemed to be brooding over King Arthur's inheritance?!
Right! Thinking about it this way, Lily had previously said something about "going back to do more things". Could it be that Lily planned to go back and fight King Arthur for power and then change this country?! If this continued, they might become enemies in the future?!
Bedivere's mind was filled with more and more thoughts. He couldn't care less about the principle of "keep a distance and don't get too close" that Sanming had advised him yesterday. With a serious expression, he held Lily's hand. However, he immediately realized that he … couldn't do anything.
The girl had obviously made up her mind. This dream was also good. What reason did he have to stop her? Moreover, Morgan's marriage and her challenge to King Arthur's authority were also important parts of history. How could he stop this? So, the only thing he could do was …
"Lily, no matter what, I will always be your friend. When you are in trouble, you can come to me anytime."
"Mm, thank you, Beckham."
Lily smiled and gave Bedivere a hug. Then, without hesitation, she turned and left. This back view gave Bedivere a premonition — perhaps, he would never see this girl with a smile as pure and beautiful as a lily again.
However, he couldn't persuade her to stay.
He stood there and silently watched the group of three leave with the little girl. When their backs disappeared into the horizon, he touched the sword at his waist as if to comfort her and turned to leave.
He couldn't stop the flow of history. However, if it was for his friend, then, why not "cheat" history a little? The so-called history, wasn't it the records of future generations?
At this moment, Bedivere still didn't know how contradictory and confusing the future was. He only naively thought that he could protect the people he wanted to protect …
…
"Ah, this is so sad, so sad … Why is this world filled with sadness?"
"… This voice, it seems a little familiar?"
Bedivere, who was rushing back to the Royal City of Camelo to take Merlin's recommendation letter to participate in the finals, hesitated for a moment before stopping his horse. He pulled the reins and walked towards the source of the sound. He hadn't been in this world for long, so if he heard a familiar voice, it might mean that someone he had met before was in trouble! Anyway, there was still time left.
Then, he saw a man with long red hair who was still fresh in his memory. The man also had a broken harp in his hand.
He had never interacted with this person before. He had only heard him play and sing after coming here. No wonder he felt familiar but couldn't remember! However, this person seemed to be in trouble?
"Excuse me, do you need any help?"
"Hmm? This voice … "The young man was stunned. He raised his head and looked at Bedivere. Then, he tilted his head," Ah, it's you. You really make people feel sad. "
“？？？”
He felt sad when he saw him? What did he do?
