To be king and magician

"Hmm...don't look at me like that." Arturia looked away a little embarrassed, "I don't want to be your highness or something, it's just a title, a little None of the substance..."

"Compared to this! Why are you still chasing after me, Gao Wen! I've already beaten you into the sea with all my strength!"

Arturia remembered very clearly that she had shot her into the sea with a full-strength magic cannon in order to beg Gawain's pursuit at the beginning. Why is she still here now?

Could it be that it came from the sea?

Goblin knight Gao Wen respectfully put his hands on his chest: "Indeed, your blow sent me into the sea, but all the goblin knights and I have received His Majesty's blessing and protection, but sinking into the sea is not enough. Let me give up my pursuit of you."

(that bastard!)

Artoria's heart immediately turned half cold.

The goblin knight Gao Wen continued: "Your Highness, you have left the Royal City for ten days. Your Majesty is very worried about you. Please don't be willful and return to the Royal City with me. Tristan Qing and I will intercede for you."

"do not want!"

Arturia yelled extremely firmly: "I... don't want to go back there! I finally escaped from there, if I go back... Anyway, if I go back, I will only be killed by that bastard again Locked up! Locked in that cage by him like a canary!"

Can't go back.

If I go back now, I will definitely be killed by that bastard——

"Chong————!"

The sound of the blade hitting the ground interrupted Arturia's thoughts. The goblin knight Gawain seemed to be unable to bear it. He sighed slightly and raised the burning sword in his hand: "I understand. Then please forgive me for being rude. Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty has already entrusted you to take you back even if your hands and feet are broken."

"That bastard really didn't treat me as a human being! ——Although I was originally a goblin, I'm not considered a human!"

Seeing the elf knight Gawain who raised his sword and started to get serious, Artoria's face turned slightly paler.She is very clear about the strength of this knight who is great in all aspects. Even if she tries her best, she will never have any chance of winning if she confronts her head-on.

But even so... She didn't want to be taken back just like this, to the [Wangcheng (cage)] that took her several years to study thoroughly, and she didn't find a chance to escape until a few days ago. 】.

"Excuse me—Your Highness!"

After yelling angrily, the goblin knight Gawain rushed towards Artoria with his sword in his hand. A strong heat wave rushed towards his face in an instant, making Artoria almost feel like she was about to be evaporated. The burning giant sword swung directly towards her head!

Gawain will not kill herself——Artoria firmly believes in this point. After all, the two are not enemies in the first place. Let alone in public, the relationship in private is actually very good. Now she is hostile to herself and it is only a matter of business. Officially, she is such a knight who is extremely loyal to that bastard.

I'm afraid that this blow will turn to hit myself with the hilt of the sword when it is about to hit.

(That's my chance! Although it's a bit uncomfortable to use the magic that that bastard taught me to save my life--)

"Clang!"

However, just when Artoria was thinking of using magic to escape from Gawain's hands, a shield stood in front of her abruptly, taking Gawain's blow abruptly!

It's Matthew.

"Eh?"

Arturia was a little surprised: "Matthew? You..."

"Although I still don't know the situation, Miss Artoria, you should need help now, right?" Fujimaru Tachika came to her side and smiled, "You don't want to be led by this elf knight named Gawain." Let's go——in this case, then Matthew and I will help you."

"Help...me? Why?"

"Why... There is no particular reason. If someone encounters difficulties and dangers, they will naturally want to help, right?"

(Isn't lying...... Is it just such a simple reason?)

Arturia can see through Fujimaru Tachika's inner thoughts, she can be sure that she is not perfunctory to herself, or has other plans for herself, or simply wants to help herself.

And in front, Gao Wen, who was fighting for the upper hand with the sword and Matthew, heard Fujimaru Tatsuka's words, his eyes flickered slightly, and then with a sudden force, Matthew who was resisting him was sent flying with a sword!

(So ​​much power!)

Turning around in the air with a surprised mood and then falling to the ground, Mash stood in front of Artoria and Fujimaru Tachika with a shield: "The opponent's power...is very powerful, Master."

"Well, after all, Gawain is the strongest of the three elf knights in terms of pure strength, and there is no chance of winning a head-on battle with her." Artoria explained, "I'm sorry, Matthew, can you I can't ask you to buy time, I will use the magic of space transfer."

The magic of space transfer! ?

"Miss Arturia, can you use such powerful magic?"

"I was forced to learn it by that bastard, but it takes time to prepare, about 1 minute...Although I am very unwilling, but the matter related to the holy sword can only be found next time."

Looking back at Xia Chuanhu who was standing not far away and hadn't said a word since just now, Artoria took a deep breath and stuck the staff on the ground.

however--

"boom------------!"

Not far away, with the goblin knight Gawain as the center, an incomparably huge pillar of fire burst into the sky!Like a volcanic eruption, the scene of magma rushing into the sky immediately appeared in front of the three of them!

An extremely strong magical reaction instantly enveloped the three of them, and Chaldea, who was far away in the pan-human history, also received this extremely strong magical reaction!The instrument of Chaldea, which was unable to observe anything at first, abruptly experienced a certain degree of numerical fluctuation!

"I am really very happy, Your Highness the Princess." Gao Wen, who was bathed in the flames, said, "Since being welcomed back to the royal city by His Majesty as a princess, you have no friends. Now you can go out for the first time. Make two friends who are willing to help you, presumably the two majesties and Sir Tristan will be very happy to know about it."

"But I'm sorry, I will still take you back, because this is His Majesty's order, and I am required to be as soon as possible, so please understand even if the method is a little rough - I will apologize to you after I return to the royal city .”

【Fujimaru!Matthew!Unfold the treasure! 】

Roman's voice suddenly reached the ears of Fujimaru Tatsuka and Matthew.

[According to the results of our observation, the strength of the magic power on your side is now equivalent to Artoria's Holy Sword Liberation! 】

"!!"

It is equivalent to a blow of the holy sword liberation! ?

Before she had time to think about other things, Fujimaru Lixiang quickly put her hand on Matthew's shoulder, and Matthew also shouted loudly: "Noble Phantasm, unfold—"

"No! It's too late!"

Amid Artoria's anxious shouts, Gawain swung the huge sword in his hand before Mash fully unfolded his treasure, and the huge pillar of fire that soared into the sky instantly shrank into a bunch, accompanied by The slash of the giant sword suddenly slashed down!

The overwhelming waves of flames poured down like a flood that broke a bank!

The world of the three of Fujimaru Tachika was instantly occupied by endless flames!High temperatures, shocks, and blasts followed the flame storm!

"Boom————————————!"

The scorching explosive blow directly devours everything in front of it!

And when the raging flames disappeared, the three Fujimaru Tachika who were standing in front of Gao Wen had all fallen to the ground.

One hit, all destroyed.

"Well......"

Arturia groaned in pain.

Coming to her and gently hugging her, Gao Wen sighed: "I'm really sorry, Your Royal Highness—I hope I didn't cause you any trouble, Guardian."

Gao Wen said the second half of the sentence to Xia Chuanhu who had been watching.

Shrugging his shoulders helplessly, Xia Chuanhu said: "It's a shame you can tell me how to mess around like this on my island... Well, it's just a broken island that I abandoned anyway, even if I It's useless to have an opinion."

"Thank you for your understanding. Then, we take our leave."

After saying this, Gawain walked back along the way he came with Princess Artoria in his arms.

Looking at the volcanic scene blasted out by Gao Wen's serious blow, Xia Chuanhu sighed slightly: "It's really... I strengthened each of them to be several times stronger than before. This level, it will take about three or four people to deal with one...."

"Forget it, let's talk about it later, let's settle these two idiots who got beaten up for not knowing anything."

Xia Chuanhu looked helplessly at Fujimaru Tachika and Mash who had passed out.

6. Xia Chuanhu who is not Xia Chuanhu

"Crackling..."

There was such a voice in my ear.

After a long slumber, Fujimaru Tachika slowly opened her eyes from the confusion, and a bonfire burning in the night came into her vision for the first time.

Immediately afterwards, a burst of burning pain spread from the whole body to the heart.

"Well!"

"Huh? Awake?"

Someone's voice sounded from one side.

Enduring the pain, Fujimaru Tatsuka looked in the direction of the speaker, only to see Xia Chuanhu sitting there not far away, looking at him.

"Minister? I..."

"Don't think about getting up, just lie down for a while longer. Although I have treated both you and Matthew, your burns haven't healed yet, so lie down first."

Xia Chuanhu said so.

And listening to his words, Fujimaru Tachika, who lay down again, looked around subconsciously, and found that Ma Xiuxue was also lying beside her, as if she hadn't woken up yet. In addition...

"Where's Miss Artoria?"

"Of course they were taken away. Have you forgotten what happened before?"

What happened before?

Fujimaru Tachika frowned and thought about it. She remembered that she came to the church with Matthew and Artoria before, met Xia Chuantor, and then...

"Fairy Knight...Gauwain..."

"It seems that I still remember." Xia Chuanhu conjured a branch out of thin air and threw it into the bonfire in front of him, "Well, to put it bluntly, you were killed in seconds, and you didn't even have the strength to resist. Killed in one hit."

One hit kills.

Recalling the last scene he saw, Fujimaru Tatsuka trembled subconsciously.

"In other words, Miss Arturia was taken away."

"Well, but don't worry about her safety. Whether it is Gao Wen or the person who asked Gao Wen to take her away, it is absolutely impossible for her to die. After all, to put it bluntly, Arturia is the current One of the three most important men in Britain."

Listening to Xia Chuanhu's words, Fujimaru Tachika subconsciously relaxed, but when she relaxed, she suddenly remembered some of the previous things. After a little hesitation, Fujimaru Tachika couldn't help asking Said: "Minister, you...at that time...why didn't you—"

"Why don't you help save Artoria?"

"Ah."

At that time, although Fujimaru Tachika decided to help Artoria subconsciously, it was not without the reason of [knowing that Natsukawa Torora is here]. Extremely trusting.

If he helps, Arturia will definitely be protected.

But Xia Chuanhu didn't make a move at that time.
