Chapter 24

[The terrifying white dragon burns everything with the flames from its mouth. Your soldiers resist indignantly, but can only turn to ash under the dragon's breath! At this critical moment, you decide:]

[Option 1: The white dragon is unstoppable; the entire army retreats! We will come back later!

Option 2: Great Britain shall last forever! The white dragon must be destroyed!]

"Choose two!"

Artoria does not hesitate. Anyone can retreat, but she cannot! She is the King of Great Britain; if she retreats now, wouldn't that let the Saxons successfully invade!

She cannot retreat!

Such is Artoria’s character. She loves every inch of Great Britain’s land; for her to give it up is absolutely impossible!

Even if she understands that retreating now and returning later when she is stronger would allow her to defeat the black dragon, she cannot retreat. Lost land can be reclaimed, but can the pain that occurred on this land be erased?

[You raise the Sword in the Stone in your hand. Seeing you do not retreat, all the knights behind you shout, "Great Britain shall last forever!" and then follow you in a charge toward the white dragon!]

"Oh no! Something's wrong!"

Lin Ye is also unable to sit still watching this scene. He finally understands where the problem lies.

In the previous Sword in the Stone incident, normally the sword should have shattered, and then Artoria would have gone to the Forest of Fairies to seek Caliburn + Avalon, and brought back Lancelot along the way!

And facing an Artoria with full gear, the white dragon would naturally be no match.

But now!

"Butterfly effect, it's the butterfly effect!"

The Sword in the Stone is good, but at the end of the day, it is only a B-rank Noble Phantasm; how strong can it really be?

Some say the Sword in the Stone once killed Heracles with a single strike, so how could it be so weak?

This requires considering many reasons. The Sword in the Stone is the King's Selection Sword, which continuously grows stronger according to the wielder's kingly will. The current King Lily is only B-rank, but the Artoria in FSN is the true King, so she can exert A+ strength.

Plus a little bit of protagonist halo (cheating), that is how she succeeded.

But now... Great Britain is not unified, the Saxons are not driven away, and King Arthur is still too immature.

"Damn it! Forget it, if I die, I die! It's just a simulation! Tomorrow! I, Lin Ye, will be a hero again!"

After Lin Ye finishes speaking, he also looks at this simulation.

And this time, the simulation has only one line of text.

[King Arthur leads the knights in an all-out attack. The white dragon is defeated by the combined efforts of King Arthur and Lin Ye. However,

Lin Ye! KIA!]

"What! How could this happen!"

The King is stunned. She had thought about her own death, but why is it Lin Ye who dies!

[This simulation has ended. Do you wish to inherit the memories?

Yes/No]

"Inherit!"

Artoria does not understand what exactly happened! Thus, she feels an extra segment of memory appear in her mind!

["Great Britain shall last forever!"

Nearly a hundred knights charge toward the white dragon together. Countless lances are thrown, but unfortunately, all the lances land on the white dragon's scales without causing it any harm!

Roar!

The white dragon spews scorching dragon breath. Facing this breath, the King uses the Sword in the Stone to block it!

Unfortunately, the white dragon soars in the sky, and everyone is helpless against it! Facing this scene, Lin Ye suddenly comes to the King's side. He holds the King's hand. At this moment, Artoria does not reject his action; she seems to have guessed what Lin Ye is about to do!

"Lia, we cannot break the white dragon's defense as we are now, so we must break through from the inside."

"What! You want to! You cannot do this!" Artoria looks at Lin Ye in front of her nervously. How could she not know what Lin Ye wants to do? "Lin Ye, you are not from Great Britain; you cannot die here!"

Listening to Artoria's words, Lin Ye just smiles gently.

"You are right, I am not from Great Britain, and I have never loved Great Britain. The only thing I have ever loved is one person."

What!

At this moment, Lin Ye charges directly toward the white dragon. At the same time, in front of the white dragon, a neat formation of knights appears!

Seeing this group of knights, the white dragon dives down, opens its dragon mouth, and bites toward them!

Boom!

However, the moment the dragon's mouth touches the knights, they all turn into flowers filling the sky!

Illusion! B!

Roar!!!

The white dragon roars in anger. It realizes something is wrong and wants to take flight! However, a huge force pins it in place!

Mystic Eyes of Distortion! A+!

Roar!!

Lin Ye knows that the power of the Mystic Eyes of Distortion is not enough to kill the white dragon, so the moment the white dragon roars, Lin Ye’s body charges directly into the white dragon's body!

Roar!!!

The white dragon leaps up, its body flying into the sky. It is roaring; is it anger? Or perhaps pain!

Streams of flame spew from its mouth, but at the same time, drops of dragon blood fall from the sky like rain.

Roar!!!

The white dragon wails. Finally, it seems to have exhausted its last bit of strength and falls from the sky.

Boom!

Its body lands heavily on the ground, creating a large crater!

Its body is motionless, only its tail twitching continuously, and then it stops moving completely. Even at this moment, its dragon eyes have not closed. Perhaps it never expected that the one to kill it would not be the red dragon it had fought for so many years! But rather! An

ant it usually looked down upon!!!

"Lin Ye!"

"Coach!"

"My lord!"

Instantly, all the knights charge toward the white dragon. They continuously hack at the white dragon with their weapons; some even crawl into the dragon's mouth. Unfortunately, by the time they drag Lin Ye out, Lin Ye has no breath left.

He holds the lance in his hand even in death; even Percival cannot pull it away.]

[Your Life Simulation 2.0 has ended. You have obtained the achievement: Sword in the Stone Exists: (The Sword in the Stone did not break). Overall rating: C. Please choose one of the following rewards.]

The system's voice rings in Artoria's ears, but at this moment, Artoria seems to have lost her soul. No one notices that this King is shedding crystalline tears.

This seems to be the second time in her life, and the first time was in the previous simulation.

He never loved Great Britain; the only thing he ever loved was one person.
