Chapter 45: Quietly Coming
Like, there's nothing going on with them anymore - ever since the Knights of Bedwell 'sang' and then left.
The orcs of the fog rebellion had calmed down and were beginning to be controlled by the knights—and the magicians who had been improvised to use the composite spells had dispersed on their own after that.
All of a sudden, it became deserted...... This made Cheng Yiran and his party suddenly feel uncomfortable.
It's probably a process where ordinary people get involved in a mysterious event – participate in a mysterious event – become a part of it – resolve it abruptly – and end up being at a loss for what to do.
They sat down in a devastated bar near the street where the giant compound amplification was located.
The guests, including the barkeeper and bartender, were no longer there—and after finding a few bottles of alcohol that hadn't been broken, Will put the money on the cabinet and had the crowd move the messy tables and chairs, barely scraping together a complete spot.
"Hmm...... Anyway, anyway......" Will looked at his companions, who were all looking at him silently at this time, and smiled, "Cheers... Right?"
"Cheers!!"
Alcohol is a good thing...... For those who love it.
After two cups, even the nerves, which were originally a little sluggish and numb, began to activate.
Then, in an atmosphere of increasing excitement, they began to discuss what had happened today—and they did not have time for this discussion until then.
Neither Klein nor Nick were here, and they had already started dealing with the aftermath with the rest of the Knights - but Klein had said that he would definitely come back to Will in the future.
As for the orc girl and Oga at Klein's suggestion, they followed and left.
"That's... What will happen to us next?"
In the course of the heated discussion, such a question suddenly came up - and they fell silent all of a sudden.
What's next?
"Are we going to be disposed of?"
"You idiot, we did our part anyway, okay? And that biker doesn't look like such a ruthless person?"
"Probably...... Maybe?"
Will shook his head, looked at the panic between the two companions, and let out a slow sigh...... At this time, Cheng Yiran was sitting alone at the bar, as if thinking about something - next to him was his guitar, which he never left.
This must have been the first time he had taken out this guitar and used it...... Will thought to himself.
Naturally, he didn't think of the essence of this guitar, but he felt a little mysterious about Cheng Yiran's ability to awaken Oga in the end.
"What are you thinking?" he walked over with two cups and a bottle of agave.
"Nothing. Cheng Yiran shook his head, "It feels... I just want to be quiet. ”
"Wine?" Will shook the bottle.
"Let's have a drink. Cheng Yiran sighed and said with a smile.
"We ...... Next, what will happen. Will sat down, and after a few moments, then muttered the question in a low voice—he was thinking about it as well.
But Cheng Yiran suddenly remembered Zhong Luochen at this time - he signed a contract with Zhong Luochen's company before going abroad, and later chose to study abroad very willfully, originally thought that Zhong Luochen would not agree, but he didn't expect that he didn't object, and gave him a lot of money for further study.
It's been a while since I've been in contact with the titular boss, so I don't know if he's okay lately...... What you wanted to do, and how did you do it.
"By the way, at that time, why did you seem to be fine?" Cheng Yiran suddenly looked at Will curiously and asked.
"At that time?" Will was stunned.
Cheng Yiran nodded, "Even when they all became crazy, weren't you still sober." ”
Will was stunned, and then shook his head, "I don't know very well, my mind was also messed up at that time, but I don't know why, it seems that something suddenly quieted me down...... I always feel like this thing is guarding me, right?"
As he spoke, he pulled a pendant out of his pocket and placed it on the bar.
Cheng Yiran picked it up and took a look...... I noticed that there was a clasp on the back of the pendant, so I opened it curiously - it was actually a small picture frame - but there was no photo inside.
"Actually, I've opened it before, and the photo doesn't have one. Will shrugged.
But Cheng Yiran looked at a badge engraved inside, and subconsciously said: "Isn't this badge just ......?"
"It seems to be a royal seal, right?" Will seemed a little hesitant - as a pure rotten national, he naturally would not fail to know the origin of this badge - he was curious that this pendant was given to him by his orc girl as a gift in return.
But...... It shouldn't have anything to do with the royal family, right?
Orcs, after all.
Don't know why...... It seems to be raining outside.
The rain is washing over everything in the city...... The rain was even blown into the bar, and a slight mist floated on the faces of several people, giving it a hint of wetness.
Suddenly, it was as if the whole world had gone quiet.
......
......
Palace of Westminster.
The coronation of the two did not take long...... When they heard the sound in the room, Dagonit and Orphen quickly pushed open the door and walked into the room.
I saw that in the room, their adoptive mother, Her Majesty the Queen in the true sense of the word of Britain, sat alone in a chair and went out, and then silently looked out the window.
There are two cups...... Dagonit couldn't help but frown.
"Your Majesty, let us in, is there anything we can do. Orpheum spoke first.
Her Majesty withdrew her gaze at this time and smiled: "When there are no outsiders, you should call my mother...... I like you to call me mother, it's so much better than the queen's name. ”
"Mother... Are you worried about what's next?" Orpheum nodded, then asked hesitantly.
Her Majesty shook her head, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly said, "Dagonit, Offen...... There's one thing I want you to do privately."
"Speak. Dagonit said with little seriousness.
The queen sighed slowly, "Meet your brother and say hello to him on my behalf...... In addition, tell him that he will have to continue to sit in the prince's chair for a while. At last...... Well, let's fix those extra nails for him again. ”
The two looked at each other, then nodded.
"Where's Lancelot?" said the Queen, a look of concern on her face, "I'm a little worried about her...... If she hadn't destroyed the Holy Grail this time, even if we were fully prepared, we might not have been able to succeed. ”
"She's ......," said Dagonit, "she's in another room now, and she's in need of treatment at the moment...... But Lancelot's power?"
The queen shook her head at this time, "The mysterious power of Lancelot is forbidden to be mentioned in the future, and it should be listed as one of the highest confidential information." ”
"Mother?" Orpheum couldn't help but be surprised.
The queen just smiled and said, "There is a lady who told me...... As long as this doesn't happen, we'll have a lot less trouble. ”
"Ma'am?"
The two couldn't help but be amazed...... Is that the same person the Queen had seen before they came in?
......
The Palace of Westminster, one of the few remaining rooms that are still intact.
On the bed, covered with a pure white quilt, it was the female knight who had been unconscious since the destruction of the [Holy Grail], Lancelot.
Naturally, there are people watching over the door...... They were the two superior knights who were slightly wounded in this battle.
However, what the two dutiful knights didn't know was that a stranger had broken into the room they were caring.
The maid was actually standing by the bedside for a minute or two.
She looked at Lancelot in her sleep, as if she was thinking about something.
Suddenly, Miss Maid walked into the bed—she reached out and pressed her hand against Lancelot's forehead, and a little black light slowly melted into her body.
After this, Lancelot's body began to float...... A large amount of black mist poured out of her body, and her body disappeared little by little with the gushing out of the black mist...... until it finally disappeared.
The black mist immediately began a new convergence.
Final molding.
It's still Lancelot's look—but now it's a lady's dress.
fold your hands in front of you...... After waking up, she slowly opened her eyes...... Unlike the normal Lancelot's 'facial paralysis' expression, this 'she' expression is obviously much richer.
At the same time, it also makes people marvel at her amazing beauty after having these subtle expressions.
"It's been a long time, Miss Yuya. "She's face was like a peach blossom and she smiled.
"Eleanor... I haven't seen you in a while. The maid nodded, and then said expressionlessly, "Do you know why I forcibly woke you up?" ”
'She'...... The Duchess of Aquitaine looked puzzled at this time: "As the one who manages all the rewards and punishments of the Black Soul Emissary, if you forcibly wake up a black soul on vacation, it probably means that this vacation will be terminated? So, with all due respect, I really don't know. ”
"Have you forgotten what you've done so quickly? The maid said indifferently: "I forgot what I did in the Royal Auditorium, do you need me to remind you again?" ”
"Do you mean the [Holy Grail] thing?" Eleanor said with a surprised look on her face, "If my memory is not confused, then this [Holy Grail] is the shopkeeper'......"
Here Eleanor suddenly stopped, and after glancing at the maid, she chuckled and said, "...... The previous one gave it to me to use it during the war, and since it has not been recycled until now, I should have reservations about the right to use it. In other words...... Even if I break it, I deserve that right - after all, it's already given to me, isn't it. ”
"Even if it's given to you, it still belongs to the store. The maid lady was expressionless and said, "As the property of the store...... Even you, too, exist as the property of the store. You don't know how much extra money the Holy Grail can bring to the shopkeeper, and can you still feel like you've done nothing wrong? ”
The Duchess of Aquitaine narrowed her eyes and said with a smile: "Ah, how long have I been asleep, centuries...... It's been so long that you, who never care about the profits and losses of the store's business and never care about the business of the owner, have become more concerned about these things...... Or is the new owner a bit too loser, so that there is not enough time? ”
The maid smiled softly and said softly, "Eleanor, I am responsible for punishing and rewarding the Black Soul Emissary, and the maximum limit of authority also includes extinguishing your life lamp from the [Ark of the Covenant]. ”
The Duchess restrained her smile, looked quite surprised when she looked at the maid, and then asked curiously: "It seems that there seems to be a new master in our shop...... So, are you planning to summon me now? ”
"The master didn't mean that, he didn't have to. Miss Maid said indifferently.
"Hmm...... Obviously, after teasing me before, he is really a ruthless person. The Duchess shook her head with a little pity, and then walked back to the bedside and sat down under the kind gaze of the maid.
She looked up at the maid and smiled, "The loss of the [Holy Grail] will be deducted from my performance...... If I'm not mistaken, I can still repay the loss of the [Holy Grail] out of ten or eight. If nothing else, then I'll go on with my vacation. ”
The maid did not speak until this point, and watched as the duchess lay down on the bed and listened to the last words she had said before closing her eyes.
"I'm glad I woke up this time and saw the change in you...... My good student, can you say hello to our new master for me? ”
"It's just a memory of a sub-world. ”
The Duchess slowly closed her eyes...... The body turned into a black mist, and then returned to its original Lancelot form.
The maid sighed slowly, looked at 'her' who had returned to a coma, stepped forward, and put the quilt on 'her' again.
Well...... The quilt seemed to be slightly overcovered, and finally even 'her's head was covered.
......
When Her Majesty arrived at Dagonite and Orpheum, she was startled when she saw Lancelot covered with a white quilt - normally only in morgues.
Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.
At this time, Dagonit's phone rang, and after he answered it, he mumbled, and then said indifferently: "Okay, I know...... Send someone to hunt it down. ”
After he put the phone down, he looked at Her Majesty the Queen and said, "Mother, the few who were taken into custody by the Doomsday Myth have been rescued. ”
"I see. Her Majesty nodded, not as if worried, but carefully Lancelot straightened up the quilt, "Oh, Dagonit, is this your prank? ”
“...... Not me. ”
Offen looked at Dagonit in amazement.
Mr. Clown changed into a crying look, "It's really not me......"
......
......
Fog ...... In a middle-class house, the sound of chains being torn apart sounded.
The shard of the chain made of Hamstone hit the ground with a crisp thud - and finally, it was Catherine who unchained it.
At this point, she rubbed her wrist, and then looked at the figure in front of her with some dissatisfaction, the other party was wearing a gray-black robe and a mouthless mask: the guardian of the royal family.
"I say, you, when will you bring this mask, and will you give me back my handsome Caesar?"
I saw that the guardian of the royal family reached out and took off the mask on his face, revealing his original appearance...... Caesar.
Catherine screamed and threw herself into his arms, then rubbed comfortably against his chest...... After a while, he raised his head and said, "How is it, my acting skills when I was in the auditorium are okay, right? I really cried, how can you reward me?"
Caesar just rubbed her hair, gave a smile, and looked at the room...... He bowed deeply to Judas before whispering, "This time, I'm glad everyone...... For my willfulness. ”
"Chief, you haven't done anything wrong. Judas smiled and said, "You've already told us what we're going to do, so ...... We will bear everything you have with you. Besides, compared to the original pattern, the queen can now really have real power...... For us, it's a little bit more favorable. ”
Caesar didn't have much pretension, just nodded, and then said: "Tomorrow, let's leave for home, tomorrow evening, there should be a meeting, I need to appear in front of those people early." ”
"Chief, can you take a vacation......" Tipu looked like a bitter melon.
But in the next second, he asked Jodas to pick him up directly, and then walked out of the room—after that, Dobas nodded to Caesar and Catherine, "Then, I'll go to the store too, I hope it's not badly destroyed." ”
In the room, only Cather and Catherine were soon left.
At this time, Catherine stood on tiptoe without saying a word, grabbed his head with both hands, and began to kiss fiercely.
Wheezing sounds began to sound.
After a violent storm, Catherine had fallen asleep...... Kaiser stood naked in front of the bed, covered her with a quilt, and then put on his dressing gown and left the room—into the study of the room.
But what surprised him—or rather, the momentary tightness of his whole body...... He saw someone in his study who didn't belong here.
Standing in front of the bookcase in the study, holding a book in his hand, he looked down at ...... He heard Caesar push the door open and enter, and closed the book.
He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I've been here for a while, but it doesn't seem like the time...... So I had to wait here for a while. ”
Caesar didn't alarm anyone in the room, just walked in casually and gently closed the door to the room...... A pair of eyes instantly turned into a brilliant amber gold.
"I have no ill intentions...... You can think of me as a door-to-door salesman. He said softly, "Besides, your body, it is better not to continuously urge forces that do not belong to you, Mr. Caesar...... Or rather, Prince Kafra. ”
What appeared in front of Caesar was the mysterious young man he had met in the theater who claimed to be a passerby......
