The king of the Kingdom of Camelot died, and the kingdom fell into chaos. This was also the beginning of the prophecy. In order for the kingdom to continue to exist, the day to choose the king has arrived.

Everyone guessed that since the best person was to be selected as the king, they must fight immediately.

However, all that was prepared at the meeting point was a sword stuck in a stone.

There is a golden inscription on the boulder, 'Whoever pulls this sword out of the rock should become the King of the Breeds--'

Everyone knows the origin of this sword and what it represents.

Many knights followed this inscription and grabbed the sword.

But no one could pull it out, so the knights followed their original preparations and began to fight on horseback to choose the king.

At that time, the girl was only a knight candidate and was not qualified to fight immediately.

………………

Walking on the busy street, although the girl looked very calm, the way she looked around from time to time betrayed her mood at this time. She had not seen other people for a long time.

Well, this sentence is not an exaggeration.

Artoria was raised by Sir Ector as an orphan. Even so, only a few people know Artoria's true gender, and she has been growing up under the care of Merlin. For the greatest person in the country,

Why the magician would take care of an orphan, no one knows.

Ector asked Merlin this question, but Merlin just smiled and said: "Because all this is fate."

Destiny, destiny, you have been taken advantage of again, what kind of bullshit arrangement of fate, isn't this all your own arrangement, Merlin? Don't always use these two words to fool others! (The long-lost mysterious voice

:Author, didn’t you also use these two words to abuse certain Lei?)

When Artoria was seven years old, Merlin took her out of Ector's home and lived in a fairly small manor. In this manor, besides Artoria, there was only Merlin.

There is not even a servant, so they have to do everything by themselves.

But even so, the girl did not complain. She regarded all this as a training for herself. While she did not abandon her martial arts skills, she also took good care of Merlin without any mistakes.

Merlin was very happy about this. It should be said that he enjoyed the girl's care.

From that time on, the girl never left the manor. In the past nine years, she had never left the manor and rarely saw other people. In this environment, she accepted Merlin's teachings, whether it was martial arts or fighting spirit.

, whether it is the way of governing the country, the way of knighthood, or even magic, this girl is very outstanding.

It can be said that she is a perfect person, both from the outside to the inside.

"Tolya, don't you want anything? Although the teacher is not rich, he can still afford a few gold coins." Merlin said looking at the excited girl, then he took out a bag of gold coins from his robe and handed it to her.

The girl said: "Go and have a look, buy whatever you like, and eat whatever you like. If you miss today, it may be difficult for you to enjoy these things in the future."

Arturia didn't know why Merlin said this, and this sentence made her a little confused.

"The fate has been decided a long time ago. Don't worry about it. Go ahead and enjoy the celebration." Merlin touched the girl's head and said. (Destiny: I was shot even while I was lying down!)

Although she was very confused, Artoria still took the money bag, then turned around and ran away. She immediately disappeared into the crowd. No matter how mature she was, she was still a child, someone who was about to be sixteen years old.

Just a girl.

"If you are tired, go back to the hotel. I will go back after sunset!" Merlin shouted to the crowd. Then he vaguely heard the girl's answer. He smiled and disappeared into smoke into the crowd. He still had a lot more

There were things to be done, such as the boring king-selection ceremony that followed, and the even more boring martial arts competition, and he had to be present for these things.

…

When Merlin appeared again, he was in a square in London. At this time, the place had been arranged into a huge venue. In the center of the square was the legendary 'Sword of the Chosen King', and the square was already crowded with civilians who came to watch the excitement.

.

Those nobles were wearing luxurious clothes. They all felt that they were the prophesied ones and that when they drew their swords, they would become the king. In this case, why not dress more beautifully?

And those young and heroic knights were wearing polished armor and weapons. They raised their chests and looked up at the golden sword, their eyes full of hot flames. In the eyes of the knights of this era, God is

Faith, what could be more exciting than becoming God’s chosen king?

In addition to these two types of people, there are also some ordinary civilians. They all come with the attitude of giving it a try. If they pull out the sword, won't they be able to become the king? Many people have the idea of ​​reaching the sky in one step.

Come join in the fun.

But these people don't know that their actions are a complete joke in Merlin's eyes. The prophesied king is enjoying her last joy at this time, because when tonight is over, she will no longer be a girl or a child.

But a king chosen by God, a king who will rule Britain and conquer Europe!

However, some things still need to be done to show off, at least not to let others talk about it.

So at noon, Merlin stepped onto the stage that was set up, stood in front of the Sword in the Stone and said to everyone: "Today is not just a simple day like Christmas, because on this day we will usher in the prophesied king.

, this king may be you, you, or you." Merlin pointed to the people in the audience and said: "Maybe it was your former friend, maybe it was your husband, maybe it was your son or father, any of you

Anyone may become the prophesied king, but no matter who you are, no matter what your previous identity was, as long as you draw your sword, your life no longer belongs to you, but to the whole of Britain! At the same time, no matter who

Pull out the holy sword, he is the king chosen by God, everyone must respect him and obey his orders, otherwise he will be against God! Without further ado, the king selection ceremony begins now, God is with me!"

"God is with me..." In this prayer, the king-selection ceremony officially began.

Merlin walked down the high platform and looked at the excited and even slightly distorted faces. A smile appeared on his fat face: "I have done everything I have to do, Lei. What happens next is up to you. I can't do anything about it."

, I hope you can get out of the darkness and find the real light. I'm really jealous of Tolia, because it's not me you need..."

His eyes fell on the figure chained by the iron chain. There was only excitement in Merlin's black eyes. His fat face under the hood was distorted. Although it was only an instant, the face did change just now. It was a face full of

Female face with oriental charm: "No, no, no, I'm a little excited. Well, Merlin, you damn fat guy, shut up, or I will imprison your soul forever!"

"There are still twelve hours. After twelve hours, a new destiny will open. Whether it is a goodend or a deadend depends on the choice of the two of you. The king who is willing to give up his feelings for the people, in order to no longer let the people around him

Knights who are injured and abandon their feelings, I really have to wait and see what kind of sparks will come out of the friction between you..."
