The Bell of Repentance / I'll Change the World for You

The ancient story was told by Morgan.

More than 10,000 years ago, an alien invader arrived on Earth, destroying all civilizations and taking all the land with him.

"This situation could have been remedied if your six progenitor Paradise Fae had forged the Holy Sword of Stars, the world wouldn't have ended up like this."

That's right, the Holy Sword of Stars has a special attack against alien creatures. If it is given to someone who can wield it, that alien creature, the Harvest Star Vanguard, can be destroyed.

This answer completely shattered Fujimaru Kyoya's understanding of Fairy. Even with the world destroyed, these Fairy still had a procrastination problem. Truly, they were something else entirely!

"This was indeed the fault of our ancestors, but that happened in their time. Now we have built islands on planets where there was no land, a feat achieved by all of us Fairy..."

"You really don't want to atone for your sins?"

Morgan interrupted the Wind Clan Chief, her disappointment no longer concealed.

"It is a fact that your ancestors were guilty, and it is an even greater fact that you yourselves are guilty. For example, this land beneath our feet—do you really not know how this land came to be?"

Morgan's narration unfolds the truth of what happened back then.

The Deer God Cernunnos, as an emissary of the Inner Sea of Stars, comes to punish the Paradise Fae, while at the same time, there is also the Last Human Shrine Maiden.

Unfortunately, the Deer God Cernunnos was too kind. Instead of punishing the Fairy, he sheltered them from the wind and rain, and this kindness was exploited by Fairy...

"You poisoned the Deer God Cernunnos and dismembered the Last Human Shrine Maiden to use as raw material for Artificial Human. This is why the lifespan of humans in this world is only thirty years."

"Bang!"

Upon hearing Morgan's reply, Fujimaru Kyoya crushed the wine glass in his hand. At that moment, only one emotion remained in his heart: anger.

Even if the Deer God Cernunnos had saved six dogs, he wouldn't have ended up in this predicament.

The Fairy needed humans as spiritual sustenance, so they directly murdered the last human priestess and used her as a prototype to clone her.

"The truth is not so simple. When Fairy die, their bodies do not disappear, but remain there forever. The land of Britain today is formed from the accumulation of their corpses."

The land beneath their feet is constructed from the corpses of Fairy; this is not a mistake made in the past, but something that every generation of Fairy has been doing ever since.

The constant use of Fairy corpses as tools to expand their territory reflects the Fairy' desire for land and for humans.

They are ruthless not only to humans, but also to themselves.

"All the Fairy present, except for Fairy from the north, are Fairy. If you do not atone for your sins, endless Calamity await you."

Morgan drew a conclusion about all the Fairy, but were the Fairy so easily subdued?

"So what? Neither Calamity nor the Paradise Fae can atone for our sins, for we have done nothing wrong."

The wine glass fell to the ground, and a group of Fairy soldiers with weapons surrounded the area.

Even if Morgan hadn't brought it up, the Fairy couldn't accept the rule of the Paradise Fae, and Morgan chose to confront them at this time because of this cup of poisoned wine.

The time has come for us to lay our cards on the table.

"Besides, you've already drunk it..."

"Bang!"

This time, Fujimaru Kyoya and struck directly at the "line" on the head of the Earth Tribe Chief.

There was no chance of survival; his head exploded like a watermelon.

"Fan, may we go on a killing spree today?"

Fujimaru Kyoya's eyes were filled with indifference; he had captured everyone's "death" and was ready to unleash a massacre at any moment.

"Kill them, these people are useless now."

Morgan shed her girlish demeanor, her coldness returning to her face; the Fairy was no longer important.

Chapter 262 The Bell of Repentance 75/165

This shouldn't have happened.

Of the Fairy clans of today, the Rain Tribe has perished and the King's Clan has fallen into obscurity. The remaining Five Clans are all here. They fed Morgan poisoned wine, and they witnessed him drink it. Why...?

It's normal for thoughts to break down, because when a person dies, their thoughts cease.

Thunder rumbled in the sky, followed by falling rain. Was this a lament for Fujimaru Kyoya's atrocities?

No, in Fujimaru Kyoya's opinion, it was truly the heavens applauding their actions, as the heavens deliberately washed away all the bloodstains on his body with pure rainwater.

You should repent.

Fujimaru Kyoya understood that it was impossible to get someone who was unrepentant to repent, but Fujimaru Kyoya was not one to force anyone.

Since they are unrepentant, then let them die.

A wail echoed across the land.

Morgan, Grem, and Habetrot set up Barrier around the area, turning it into Fujimaru Kyoya's hunting ground.

Ultimately, the Fairy want both the earth and humanity for survival, and their refusal to admit their mistakes is also for the sake of continued survival. So, the way to get them to admit their mistakes is actually quite simple.

That would be better than just letting them die.

Fairy are creatures that feed on human emotions, and at this moment they tasted Fujimaru Kyoya's emotions, which were a murderous intent without any impurities.

I can't understand why someone's feelings could reach this point.

After gradually killing a sufficient number of Fairy, Fujimaru Kyoya closed his Mystic Eyes of Death Perception. He began to disregard efficiency, simply killing them was just a tedious task.

The sword sliced across the Fairy's skin, crushed their bones, and destroyed their once beautiful faces, leaving them nothing but a pile of rotten flesh lying on the ground, quietly awaiting death.

Waiting for death is undoubtedly a form of psychological torture.

Since Fairy enjoy experiencing emotions so much, then they should savor their own emotions to the fullest.

Although Habetrot understood that the Fairy were at fault, she couldn't bear to turn away from such a cruel sight, while Morgan's heart grew colder and colder.

These Fairy are so stubborn, they'll probably still have their mouths left after they're cremated.

Whether they want it or not, Fujimaru Kyoya's sword is definitely harder than their words.

As death loomed, and as their companions died one by one before their eyes, the Fairy's once proud attitude began to crumble.

"If... we... repent..."

"Then I will grant you a peaceful death."

Fujimaru Kyoya certainly wouldn't let them go just because he killed them easily, but for the Fairy, it was a good relief.

Fairy do not have the concept of reproduction. When they die, as long as their souls are not damaged, a new personality will emerge to inherit their original work.

However, they did not possess the ability of Fujimaru Kyoya to see through Non-form, so when their next generation was born, they were simply someone else who resembled them.

Even if one can inherit some of the memories, one can only treat them as someone else's life.

Fairy are different from humans; as long as they can survive, that's enough for them.

"Thump~"

As soon as the first bell rang, it drew the attention of everyone present. It was a confession from a certain clan. As the first bell rang, another bell in Morgan's hand also began to chime.

That bell came from the Rain Tribe; when this clan accepted Morgan, they had already repented.

This bell was created when the Rain Tribe was wiped out; it symbolizes the clan's repentance.

A bell rang out, followed by a second, a third, and when the sixth bell rang, the rain stopped and the sky cleared.

Then... Fujimaru Kyoya learned the fates of these Fairy one by one.

This was not the end, but the beginning. When the fighting power of these Fairy was destroyed, Morgan's ruthlessness towards the remaining Fairy began.

"Listen, all you Fairy! I am Morgan, Fairy of Paradise. I have not come here to save you, but to rule you. No matter how horribly you die, I will not care."

Morgan united the remaining Fairy. Having experienced this ordeal, the Fairy of Paradise harbored no goodwill towards any of the Fairy except for those from the Northern Fae, but...

"Morgan, do you love Britain that much?"

Outside the still-unfinished Camelot City, Fujimaru Kyoya watched the Fairy who were marked with Command Seal and required to pay an "Existence Tax" every year.

He knew why Morgan didn't kill these people: Morgan wanted to raise them like livestock, so that they would provide Morgan with Mana for generations to come, and use that Mana to fight against the Calamity of the Deer God.

"I don't love these Fairy, but I love this land, and on this land there are innocent people."

Even if it's love inherited from her past as Pan-Human History, this love isn't hypocritical, and there are also Northern Fae and humans on this land.

Humans and Northern Fae were not involved in the assassination of the Deer God. If the Five Clans are "guilty," then they are "innocent."

"I will manage all humans and won't allocate too many humans to the Fairy, thus limiting Fairy numbers."

Morgan also showed him a Magecraft called "The Rhongomyniad," which claimed that if one possessed multiple "Rhongomyniad," even the Calamity of the Deer God would be no threat.

This is why Morgan needs these Fairy to exist, not to kill them all; she needs these Fairy to constantly give her Mana to replenish the Rhongomyniad.

"This is not a solution."

Fujimaru Kyoya understood that this wasn't a solution. Morgan had maintained this system for a thousand years, but what about after a thousand years?

"It's alright. A new Paradise Fae will appear in the future, and she will end all this Calamity. I just need to wait until that time."

Morgan mentions the Child of Prophecy of the future, which is clearly Artoria.

"Kyo, I've thought of a way for you to go back to the future. Will you believe me?"

Morgan understood the importance of the man before him; without the information he brought, Morgan might have died in the clan's machinations.

"I trust you."

Upon receiving Fujimaru Kyoya's reply, Morgan demonstrated his Magecraft, implying a "coffin" into which Fujimaru Kyoya could simply step, and that the time spent inside and outside the coffin would differ.

For Fujimaru Kyoya, all he had to do was sleep, and he could return to the modern world—that was Morgan's idea.

Morgan.

Before being placed in the coffin, Fujimaru Kyoya gave these instructions.

"If I encounter any difficult situations, you can wake me up at any time."

"Well, I don't trust many people anymore. If I need someone to rely on, you'll be the first person I think of."

A slight smile appeared on the cold, numb face of the queen.

Chapter 263 Changing the World for You 76/165

Morgan was not arrogant; during her two-thousand-year reign, there were several betrayals from the Fairy, as well as some Calamity that the Fairy could not overcome.

At this point, Morgan will awaken Fujimaru Kyoya, as the two of them are the only confidants in order to reach the future two thousand years in the future and save Artoria.

The Black Knight, the Sage Grem, and Habetrot left Morgan to help Morgan search for the Child of Prophecy who might appear at any time.

They knew about Morgan's situation, but they had seen too much of Morgan's methods, and they were getting tired of it.

Out of sight, out of mind—that's their current thinking.

The only person who could stay by Morgan's side Fujimaru Kyoya. When Fujimaru Kyoya couldn't see her, when no one else could see her, Morgan would come to Fujimaru Kyoya's "coffin." Only by Fujimaru Kyoya's side could she release her emotions.

They had no real feelings for each other, only a long period of companionship. Whenever Morgan felt lonely, Fujimaru Kyoya would wake up and he would make Morgan forget about this time.

Morgan didn't want to call Fujimaru Kyoya so frequently, so she came up with a solution— the Fae Knight.

In this land of Britain, a thousand years would bring a Great Calamity, and Morgan covered up these Great Calamity by "bestowing names".

She erased the name of the Beast Calamity, and the Fae Knight Gawain was born.

She erased the name of the Revival Calamity, and the Fae Knight Tristan was born.

She erased the name of the Dragon Calamity, and the Fairy Knight Lancelot was born.

These Fairy, who were originally meant to destroy Britain as Calamity, became Morgan's warriors, and this was Morgan's determination to fight against the Calamity.

In order to alleviate his inner emotions and avoid waking up Fujimaru Kyoya every few days, Morgan even adopted Barghest as his daughter and kept her by his side.

As for Barghest's indiscriminate slaughter of Fairy?

Hehe~ Morgan wouldn't stop such a gratifying thing. As long as she doesn't kill the Northern Fae and humans, Morgan wouldn't care who Barghest kills.

Finally...

"The teleportation is finally complete."

Morgan felt the completion of her Magecraft within the royal city; she had transported Fujimaru Kyoya from this era to two thousand years ago, and now she could revive him.

"Creak~"
