I, the sword in the stone, want to take the knight king

: The One Who Bears All Curses

Honesty is a valuable quality.

As for a knight, treating others with sincerity is one of the basic principles of their conduct.

Due to being a minor, the current Arturia did not participate in the real conferring ceremony to become a real knight.

But from the moment she picked up the wooden sword when she was six years old, she has already regarded the legendary “Knight” as her ideal and pursuit.

She is well aware of the mission of the king on her shoulders, but this does not prevent her from demanding herself as a knight.

She knows that she can’t be perfect, but she asks herself to be perfect.

And before that, Artoria had always felt that. She had done her best to be a perfect knight, and there was nothing to blame.

But now—

“Well, I’m actually a magic sword.”

“I can give you great power, but I can also invade your mind and take your body.”

“If you are not satisfied, you can put me back in the original position, and let’s pretend nothing happened.”

Shaar’s openness and sincerity was beyond Artoria’s expectations.

And it was this kind of openness that made Artoria realize that what she did was not good enough.

——Even with a sword, one can face one’s own identity and weaknesses, and be frank and honest, worthy of others.

Then, as the king of Britain, how could she secretly hide her gender and dare not show her true colors?

“It’s really… a lesson.”

The index finger of her left hand flicked lightly on the blade of Jian Zhongjian.

“Om—”

Accompanied by a slight tremor, a clear and sweet voice rang in Artoria’s ears.

Dazzling golden light was released from the sword and shone on Artoria’s face, turning those blue pupils into gold.

At this moment, Arturia suddenly had a kind of enlightenment.

“So, is this the curse that Merlin said?”

The King’s Choice Sword is not a holy sword, but a magic sword.

It promises an unhappy, even hopeless future for its owner.

As long as the sword is picked up, no matter how hard its owner struggles, he will meet a lonely and tragic death.

But even so, Arturia did not hesitate, and raised the “Holy Sword” exuding golden light.

“Miracle has a price.”

“Things like this… have been known since I was very young.”

Artoria raised her head, looked at the increasingly bright golden light, and thought silently in her heart.

There is no free lunch in the world.

In order to defeat the humble king Vortigern, Artoria had already prepared to sacrifice herself.

But now, a weapon that could bring her great strength was held tightly in her hands.

Arturia knew that this was a dangerous weapon that would bring herUnlucky.

But at the same time, Artoria knows that this is also a “beautiful” weapon that can bring smiles to more people.

That being the case, there is absolutely no reason for Arturia to let go.

Because now she is the king of Britain.

No matter whether he will be alienated, feared, or even betrayed in the future, he will not have any fear.

In a sense, at this moment, the life of Artoria Pendragon was over.

Next, she will live and fight for the Britons as the [King].

And if only sacrificing her alone can bring smiles to more people…then she will die willingly.

“If people are laughing, then I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that.”

No one knows the king’s oath.

The responsibility of the king shall not rest until death.

“Let us work together next, Your Excellency Char.”

“Okay, we are destined to…hey, wait, what did you say?”

Char, who heard Artoria’s answer, froze for a moment.

He felt that he might be hallucinating.

Or maybe this seemingly loyal knight king was teasing him with words.

But now, the next moment.

When a voice that had been silent for ten years sounded in Shaar’s conscious world.

Xia Ya suddenly realized that this stupid hairy king…maybe he was playing with him for real.

[Ding, the contract is successful. 】

[Current contract object: Arturia Pendoragon]

[Ding, the novice reward has been issued. 】

[Ding, you have obtained the magic weapon value*1000. 】

[Ding, you got skill points*1]

[Ding, the mission system is open, please check the mission interface for details. 】

【…】

The tinkling sound kept ringing in Xiaya’s consciousness space.

If it was Shaar who was sealed for ten years before, he would definitely be very excited by the appearance of these voices.

But for Xiaya at this moment, what he can really hear and remember in his heart is only the words Artoria said to him.

“Let’s work hard together…”

“Hey hey…”

…

Leaving aside the whimsical Char.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Artoria, who had made up her mind, once again infused the magic power in her body into the Sword of the Chosen King.

In the next instant, a golden beam of light more than half a meter wide was released from the blade.

The beam of light that shot straight into the sky pierced the dark sky, replaced the sun that was about to set, and bloomed a new, vigorous and energetic light.

This light is very bright, but it is not dazzling. There is also a very peaceful breath in it, as if it can soothe the impetuousness in people’s hearts.

The residents in the town saw this beam of light, and they all walked in the direction of Artoria.

The knights who were fighting saw this beam of light, put down their weapons in unison, looked up at Artoria’s position, but stopped because of concerns in their hearts.

Arturia’s adopted brother Kai also saw this beam of light.

However, there was no surprise or surprise on his face.

From the moment the five-year-old Artoria was brought into their home by Merlin, he already knew that something like today would happen sooner or later.

At the same time, the flower magician standing behind Artoria, of course, also saw this spectacular scene.

“Ah, you have chosen a difficult path.”

The Flower Magician turned around pretending to be troubled, but the smile on his face showed the excitement in his heart.

At this moment, he believes in such a fact:

“The girl in front of me is full of the aptitude of a king.”
