"Ah Hahaha! How can this not make me laugh! Hahaha……"
Iskandar said seriously,"Saber, are you going to deny your own actions that have been written into history?"
"That's right, why are you surprised and why are you laughing!"
"The motherland for which I obtained the sword and sacrificed my life has been destroyed. How ridiculous is it that I mourn its destruction!"
Artoria was puzzled by their surprise and ridicule. As the Knight King and a knight, this was her duty and her wish. Why was she laughed at by the two?
"Hey, did you hear that? Rider, this little girl who calls herself the Knight King talks about sacrificing herself for the motherland - hahaha!"
Gilgamesh laughed out loud again.
Ye You on the side almost laughed at Gilgamesh's words. I remember that you didn't laugh so happily when you died of overwork!
You are the least qualified to say anything about Altria!
Hearing Gilgamesh's ridicule again, Altria couldn't bear it anymore, and stood up and scolded:"Why are you laughing!"
"Since you are the king, you should stand up and seek prosperity for the country you rule. What's so funny about that!"
Iskandar accused in a deep voice:"You are wrong, your idea is wrong!"
"It is not the king who sacrifices himself, but the country and the people who sacrifice themselves for the king! It is definitely not the other way around!"
After hearing Iskandar's words, Artoria immediately replied:"What are you talking about! Isn't that the rule of a tyrant! ?"
"good!"
"We are heroes precisely because we are tyrants. But if Saber says that there is a king who regrets his rule and the end of the kingdom, then he is just a tyrant! Even worse than a tyrant!"
Iskander expressed his views in a deep voice. In his eyes, even a tyrant is a hero!
He essentially denied Artoria's point of view!
This made Artoria even more angry than Gilgamesh's simple ridicule!
"Iskandar, didn’t you also lose your inheritance, and the empire you founded was eventually divided into three?"
"Don't you have any regrets about this ending?"
""No!"
Iskandar responded to Artoria's question without even thinking about it!
Hearing Iskandar's decisive response, Artoria was a little stunned.
"If this is the result of my decision and the way my subjects survive, then the destruction of my country is inevitable!"
"I will mourn and shed tears, but I will never regret!"
"how come……"
Hearing Iskandar's words, Alia's shoulders trembled and she took a half step back.
"I don't even want to overturn all this!"
"This stupid behavior is an insult to all those who built that era with me!"
In response to Iskandar's arrogant and domineering words, Artoria resisted the pressure in his tone and denied it:"Only soldiers will regard destruction as glory! How can we not protect the weak!"
"Correct rule and correct governance, this is the king's long-cherished wish!"
Listening to Altria's point of view, Iskandar chuckled and said:"Then, you, the king, are the [correct] slave!"
"You can say that, the one who sacrifices for his ideal is the king!"
Altoria agreed calmly with Iskandar's words.
Picking up the wine glass, Iskandar took a sip, shook his head and muttered softly:"This is not the way for human beings to survive at all."
"Since you want to rule the country as a king, you can't expect the way humans live!"
When Artoria pulled out the sword in the stone, she already had such a firm idea!
In order to become a perfect king, she can abandon anything, whether it is physical or emotional, even the identity of a woman, she also abandoned it at that time!
This is her kingly way, supporting her to become an undefeated myth and the basis for future generations to praise!
Ye You also shook his head at this. He did not deny Artoria's point of view, but he pitied this girl who wanted to devote herself to the country until her death. She carried too much!
Even if she died, she still carried the burden forward!
"King of Conquerors, you who are pursuing the Holy Grail just for the sake of a body cannot possibly understand!"
"You who became a overlord just to satisfy endless desires, you can never understand!"
Hearing that Artoria actually scolded him, Iskandar immediately widened his eyes and roared:"A king without desires is worse than a vase!"
Iskandar's huge roar made Artoria take half a step back!
Iskandar took a sip of wine and then said:"Sabe, you just said [sacrifice for ideals]. I believe you must have been an honest saint, and you must have a noble and inviolable heroic appearance!"
"However, who would yearn for such a thorny road of martyrdom, and who would envy it!"
"The so-called king……"
"Have a desire stronger than anyone else!"
"Louder than anyone else's laugh!"
"More angry than anyone else!"
"No matter whether it is pure or turbid, one must achieve the ultimate of humanity. That is why the ministers envy the king and are fascinated by the king!"
"Ignite the fire of longing for"I want to be king too" in the hearts of every citizen!"
Iskandar's voice became lowered at the end, and he asked in return:"As a king of chivalry and honor, the justice and ideals you uphold may have saved the country and the people once, but what was the final outcome of those who were merely saved?"
"What did you say……"
The dark clouds in the sky completely blocked the bright moonlight. Listening to Iskandar's words, Artoria seemed to see the blood-stained Sunset Hill.
The sun was setting, and there were dead bodies everywhere. She was standing alone on the bodies...
Merlin's voice echoed in her mind:"Artoria, you must understand that when you pick up this sword, you will no longer be a human being!"
"You will be hated by everyone and will eventually meet a tragic death!"
At that time, Artoria was also very clear about her fate of pulling out the sword from the stone, but she had been studying and surviving desperately under Merlin's guidance since she was a child in order to become a king!
In order to protect the people and the country!
"Teacher, I know very well, but even if I am abandoned, betrayed, and reviled! I will pull out this sword, because I was born for this!"
At that time, I did not hesitate at all, as if it was natural to pull out the"Sword in the Stone" that symbolized the king.
From that moment on, time could no longer leave any traces on me as the king!
The king's body and mind completely stopped growing, and they stayed forever at the moment of fifteen years old!_Feilu reminds you: Three things to read
