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

Thirty-Two God Is Dead

church.

Well, this was Char’s mistake.

Living in the new era, he naturally accepts the concept that “the country is the country of the people, and the people are the masters of the country”.

In later generations, the name of this concept is often called [democracy].

But in this Middle Ages when theocracy ruled the secular, the gods were the source of all secular rule.

People living in this era generally believe that all people in the world are sinful and lost sheep.

And the rulers of those kingdoms are [shepherds] chosen by the gods. Instead of gods, manage the real world.

This is the so-called “divine right of kings”.

What’s even more interesting is that Artoria, the king of Britain, has a little bit of “chosen” in it.

Perhaps, she herself is also a supporter of the idea of ​​”divine right of kings”.

——However, what does this so-called “orthodoxy” have to do with Char?

He is just a magic sword ready to take Artoria’s body anytime and anywhere.

And for a magic sword, defeating the host’s faith…isn’t it a basic operation?

Therefore, in the face of Arturia’s questioning voice.

Shaar was able to reply without hesitation in a rather rampant voice:

“Do you know a word?”

“what?”

“God is dead.”

“!!!”

…

The outrageous words came out of Shaar’s mouth.

But this time, Artoria was completely speechless.

—She was frightened.

An unprecedented panic rose from the depths of her heart.

to be honest.

Even when she learned that her ending was destined to end in tragedy, Arturia was never so afraid.

She even accepted the result of her “failure” frankly, and greeted the not-so-good journey of life with a high-spirited attitude.

But, now.

“God is dead…”

These simple words seem to have a magical power.

Even just thinking about it, Arturia could feel an unprecedented terror covering her heart.

This is the horror born of the oppression of the ignorant age by the advanced age.

Just like Char, who lives in the future, cannot understand the “divine authority of kings” in this era.

Artoria, who lived in the Middle Ages, also couldn’t understand the profound historical background hidden behind the simple-sounding word “democracy”.

You know, in order to realize this seemingly simple word, two kings were pushed to the guillotine successively.

“However, don’t tell Arturia about these things.”

Xiaya thought silently in her heart.

He could see that Arturia had been stimulated enough tonight.

After being stimulated… Her spirit is probably going to be abnormal.

…

After midnight.

After a lot of frantic arrangements, the refugees brought back by Artoria were finally arranged properly.

They were housed in an empty house with hay on the floor to ensure they would be safe for the first night.

But according to Shaar’s suggestion, Artoria’s assistance to them would come to an end.

If they want to live a better life, they need to rely on their own efforts to collect all available things in the surrounding mountains and forests.

In this regard, these new members of the kingdom did not have much objection.

——They themselves are people who have fled from disasters, and it is common for them to eat and sleep in the open.

It is already an unexpected joy to have a big house that can shelter from wind and rain.

At the same time, the more important point is:

That knight-lord named 【Kai】looks so brave and reliable.

And the pig demon that was like a hill that he killed with his own hands became a dazzling medal.

Everyone felt that that heroic knight-lord could definitely bring enough safety to the village.

–Yes, that’s right.

When considering safety issues, they deliberately ignored Arturia’s existence.

This is because they are subconsciously “holding together”.

After all, although Kai is powerful, he is still human.

After all, people can still be regarded as the same kind.

In their eyes, Arturia who can control the snowstorm is already a real god.

Between gods and humans, there is a gap that can never be bridged.

They are not the same at all.

Therefore, they responded with an attitude of “awe” rather than “admiration” towards Artoria.

This may also be the effect Arturia wants to achieve.

strongShe believes that “the king should be lonely”, and she is deliberately keeping a distance from these people.

Perhaps, even Artoria herself felt it. “King” and “people” are not existences living in the same world at all.

As a king, she doesn’t need to be understood, let alone be understood.

So, at the end of the day. The King of Knights is obviously brilliant and has no flaws. Only because they “do not understand people’s hearts” will they part ways with their own people, so that they will be reduced to the point of “betrayal”.

——but that was a long, long time later.

And now.

“hey-hey.”

Artoria has been busy for almost a month since she left Hectorland. Finally, I was able to temporarily put down the burden on my body and take a good rest.

She was exhausted physically and mentally, and soon fell into a sleeping state.

At the same time, a certain Shaar who was about to go crazy was staying in the sword in the stone. Then quietly, he regained control of this body.

And when Xiaya was convinced that this time Artoria really fell into a deep sleep, instead of just using the “false sleep” state to deceive him like last time.

“Humph!”

“Finally let me wait for the opportunity!”

Shaar, who was free again for a short time, did not hesitate.

Directly follow the route in memory and quickly walk towards the road leading to the underground palace.

He didn’t know when Arturia would wake up.

Therefore, he must use the fastest speed to reach the treasure house containing precious treasures and complete his “revenge”.

“Rotating the Sword of Victory, isn’t it?”

“Just wait for Grandpa!”.
