Chapter 629
………
Shijo Mansion.
The face of a certain young lady, who was originally so cold that she froze the mansion, turned red, and her voice was even stuttering: "Where... where is that, confession or something... clearly it should have been him first..."
Outside the house.
The blonde maid with side ponytails, leaning against the wall with her hands behind her back, sighed.
So, young lady, you are the ultimate loser who can't win even after hundreds of millions of times.
……..
【"Let's go, let's go, there will be engineering vehicles coming to fill it in in a few days."】
【On the mountain on one side of the city.】
【After the reporters left, the Shijo conglomerate staff were also preparing to withdraw.】
【"Tsk, this place is hundreds of meters above sea level, there would be a natural gas pipeline? That's too ridiculous."】
【Several people muttered as they walked.】
【"Cut, who knows, those big shots from the conglomerates... hmph, maybe they are doing some dangerous experiments. Don't you feel that something is very wrong these days? It's explosions, and light pollution."】
【"Well, it has nothing to do with us, as long as we get overtime pay."】
【"That's true..."】
【Wait until the voices gradually faded away.】
【Zi————!】
【Terrifying thunder snaked down from the high sky and struck the edge of the terrifying gap with a boom.】
【"Is it Fuyuki City again?"】
【In the shade of the trees, a tall figure stood up slowly, her deep, calm eyes looking at the brightly lit city at the foot of the mountain.】
【Her snow-colored long hair danced lightly, and she sighed.】
【"Well, it's really a human will that loves to cause trouble for others."】
【The slow night wind blew past, and I don't know when, the slender figure in snow-white hair and leather clothing had disappeared.】
………
"Holy crap, it feels so familiar, what is this?"
Someone looked stunned.
"A guardian of Alaya, like the Heroic Spirit Yukinoshita."
A veteran brother shook his head.
"Hiss, I know, this is Yukinoshita, right?"
"Damn, it can't be such a coincidence, she was in the Fifth War, and now she's here in the Fourth? Besides, what can a third-rate Servant like her do in a situation where big shots are fighting?"
"Hmm? Are you looking down on a big shot who can kill Berserker six times?"
"Mommy, it's really a long night, so many things have happened, and the situation is becoming more and more chaotic."
"Yeah, listening to Brother Shu's tone, I'm afraid this is not as simple as just the four-eyed guy causing trouble."
"Eh, why did the screen change?"
…….
【"O King..."】
【Ancient era.】
【A city that is glorious and holy, as if in a dream.】
【A woman named Yukinoshita Haino floated quietly in the void, watching, witnessing.】
【On the windowsill of the royal city.】
【The wind blew gently on petals from who knows where, melodious and soothing.】
【The young knight looked hesitantly at the forever-glorious King, his voice low: "Why would someone like me be chosen as one of your Knights of the Round Table?"】
【Clearly he was so weak, so feeble.】
【The King, overlooking the peaceful city, turned her head and revealed a calm smile: "Do you think you are inferior to others, and therefore unworthy to be a Knight of the Round Table? Bedivere?"】
【The knight was somewhat ashamed, lowering his head: "Yes, O King, how can someone as weak and cowardly as me become the sword in your hand?"】
【"Foolish!"】
【The King sighed and said: "On this point, I am the same..."】
【"How can that be..."】
【The knight was very excited: "My King, you..."】
【"One cannot simply measure the relationship between people by the strength of their power."】
【The King shook her head, turning back to look at the relaxed citizens on the street outside the window: "This city of Camelot..."】
352. Holy crap, was Avalon built by Brother Shu?
【"This city of Camelot was built by gathering people's dreams of life and a better life."】
【The majestic King, shining with brilliance, had eyes that were so gentle at this moment: "I have always fantasized, always looked forward to the day when people could build such an ideal kingdom with their own hands."】
【"With this dream, this entrustment, this city was finally built, so..."】
【She smiled at the knight: "Sir Bedivere, that is why I need a knight with such delicate feelings as you, to carefully feel the daily lives of the most ordinary people, and let me feel the weight of the people."】
【The knight said solemnly: "I understand, O King. Your subject also loves this beautiful city, and loves the sincere smiles of the people in this city."】
【The King curled her lips, revealing sincere joy: "Is that so? I am very happy, Sir Bedivere."】
【The young knight stood dazed on the spot.】
【Green vines climbed up the mottled walls, and the satisfied smile on the King's lips in the soft morning sunlight was so dazzling.】
【The knight gripped his sword tightly, swearing to protect everything with his life.】
【But O King...】
【When will you finally be able to show a smile for yourself?】
【The knight felt sad for his Lord, the King who created legends, killed the White Dragon, built this ideal holy capital, and turned into light to shine on others.】
【I hope you can see the light, the light that belongs to you...】
【High in the sky.】
【The woman who no one could notice, and who also could not interfere with anything, was expressionless, whispering to herself: "Saber, so your wish was this simple..."】
………
Reality.
Many people were silent for a long time.
Saber's wish is really simple, even simple to the point of being plain.
It is merely the hope that her subjects, the people who believe in her and follow her, can have a simple and happy life.
No need for luxury, no need for eternity, just getting a decent ending that should have been there.
But...
"That's exactly why it's the hardest~"
Sitting behind a luxurious desk, Rias sighed.
As a devil, she knew too well what the situation was in Europe thousands of years ago, even in that barren land.
That was not an era of exploding modern material conditions.
Under such reality, how difficult it is to build a land where one can be happy and healthy.
Not to mention that it was an era where there were many descendants of naturally powerful gods and superiors with hero blood?
Like that young knight, their powerful strength, even if born in a poor family, could easily obtain everything.
So it is hard to understand King Arthur's ideal, King Arthur's purpose, and how noble it is...
A certain Ninja Continent.
Pure Land.
The man who was domineering to the point of being peerless, and feared as the Asura, slowly lowered his arms and was somewhat silent.
In fact.
He originally thought that an existence as great and fierce as Saber would limit her gaze to a mere island, a mere ethnic group...
Lacking in capacity, too narrow.
If it were him, killing the gods, reshaping the world's hegemony, like that Conqueror King, fighting to the end of the world would be worthy of this great power.
