The Herrscher of Reason nodded, then asked in confusion—

How could you...

Oh, right, you're Herrscher too.

I almost forgot, although I don't use it often, you're a composite Herrscher with three different powers.

"Um...

Um?"

Gwen nodded in agreement, and as he was pondering how to resolve this mess with as little as possible, he suddenly sensed something, turned his head, and met a pair of gray eyes.

"Bavantsi?"

You've come at the right time, come over here, come over here..."

"I?"

Upon hearing this, the Fairy Knight Tristan, who had just returned from the lower steps, pointed to himself in surprise.

"Hmm, come and lend a hand. Maybe you can help Morgan sort out this mess."

Gwen nodded.

"This..."

Looking at the still empty throne, Bavantsi seemed somewhat hesitant—

Facing Gwen, who single-handedly defeated the monster Fairy Knight Lancelot, she felt quite insecure... especially now that Morgan she remembered as always being by his throne, was gone.

"Morgan is helping me resolve my troubles over there, so I came to see if I could help her with the Fairy Country's problems."

This is Lesser Knowledge, the Herrscher of Reason, which you can understand as a deity who controls consciousness.

This is Fu Hua, a guardian who, like your mother, has protected a nation for thousands of years.

Noticing Bavantsi's subconscious hesitation, Gwen explained and introduced the three of them—

"This is Fairy Knight Tristan of this place. His real name is Bavantsi. He is one of the few kind fairies who will show goodwill to Morgan, who was once the savior. In this last life, he looks a bit crooked because of Morgan's upbringing. He needs to be properly educated."

"No problem, leave it to me!"

Upon hearing that this was a piece of gold that didn't need to be mined from excrement, the Herrscher of Reason lit up. He flashed to Bavantsi's side, grabbed her hand, and shook it.

Faced with Xiao Shi's enthusiasm, Bavantsi was a little unsure how to respond, but she still forced herself to communicate with him.

Fu Hua stared at the Fairy Knight Tristan for a moment, then frowned slightly.

"Her soul... seems to have suffered some kind of peculiar injury?"

"Because of her weak and vulnerable nature and her help to the savior, her ancestors died many times. When it came to her, it was the last time, and she had no chance of being resurrected."

"So many resurrections and reincarnations must have caused some kind of damage or wear and tear."

Gwen nodded, watching Fairy Knight Tristan was awkwardly and helplessly dealing with Xiaoshi, completely unlike the arrogant figure he remembered, and then came to the two's side with Fu Hua—

"Next, I hope you Bavantsi, can take the two of them to see this Fairy Country and learn about the fairies here."

Haven't you always been unsure how to properly deal with those fairies?

You can ask those two more questions; with Fu Hua's knowledge, she can give you a satisfactory answer.

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, the Fairy Knight Tristan's eyes lit up immediately—

The reason she has been killing fairies all these years is because Morgan smiled at her when she first killed a fairy, making her think that Morgan liked the way she killed. So she kept creating killings, but she could no longer get the recognition she wanted.

Morgan would be pleased if she could learn what is right from these two, wouldn't he?

"Yes, you can trust Fu Hua to be reliable."

Gwen affirmed.

"So I'm still going to watch those disgusting things, right?"

Xiao Shi stared at Gwen with narrowed eyes.

She's happy to use her power to distinguish good from evil and punish wrongdoing while promoting good, but this...

"No need to look at too much—"

Or rather, we can now ignore their inner thoughts and ideas, and simply become more familiar with the consciousness of those fairies.

Once Morgan's business is finished, we can try to work together to build a redemption mechanism, so we don't have to judge the good and evil of each fairy individually.

"That's alright."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Shi nodded in satisfaction.

Chapter 671 The Resurrected Fairy Knight Lancelot

As Lu Xun once said, the Chinese people's temperament is always inclined towards harmony and compromise, and this conclusion actually has merit across the world, and it is also applicable to those with limited knowledge.

She would feel that Gwen was making things difficult for her if she were asked to look at all the fairies in the Fairy Country Britain by one.

However, if it's just about understanding the spirit and will of the fairies and participating in such a major undertaking as the construction and transformation plan, Xiao Shi would become quite interested.

"Fu Hua, I'll have to trouble you to take care of Xiao Shi and Bavantsi for the next while."

Gwen said to Fu Hua.

"Okay, no problem."

Fu Hua nodded in agreement.

"Etc--"

Xiao Shi suddenly spoke, her red eyes fixed on Gwen—

What are you planning to do?

"Try to catch an unlucky guy."

Gwen said succinctly.

"Unlucky guy?"

Xiao Shi immediately showed interest.

"If you're interested, you can try asking her after she's resurrected—"

Or perhaps she refused resurrection and chose death, after which I will tell you.

"Okay, go ahead, go ahead..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Shi stopped pressing the matter and waved his hand to indicate that Gwen could leave.

After entrusting Xiao Shi and Bavantsi to Fu Hua's care, Gwen left Camelot's royal court and headed north to the lake district, where he found Albion's decaying dragon body.

"Is it just bad luck, or the oldest form of procrastination in the Age of Gods?"

His gaze pierced through the lake and land, landing on the decaying dragon's body below. Gwen murmured to himself, then flipped his hand and retrieved the True Spirit of Fairy Knight Lancelot whose body he had recently shattered.

"I hope you can see that now, you little rascal..."

With a soft sigh, Gwen raised his hand, and Albion's decaying dragon body slowly rose, the black sludge appearing exceptionally ugly in the sunlight.

Gwen, however, did not care about this. Instead, he examined the decaying dragon body carefully for a long time before releasing flames to ignite it.

Amidst the raging flames, the massive, decaying dragon's body rapidly shrank, its decay, filth, and deathly aura completely burned away, leaving only the mystery of the last dragon.

"It's time to wake up, Melusine. You're no longer a pitiful creature who needs someone to pick you up to come back to life."

Having confirmed that Albion's remains had been purified, Gwen poured the True Spirit of Melusine into it.

Instantly, the immense magical power that had been quietly floating in the flames began to surge and burst forth with dazzling light, as if it had come alive. Its mystique also began to change rapidly after successfully accepting Melusine.

A moment later, the light subsided, revealing a petite girl in a blue dress with her eyes closed, looking as adorable as Sleeping Beauty.

"Still unwilling to wake up?"

After waiting a moment, seeing that Melusine's eyes were still closed and she was unwilling to wake up, Gwen whispered and came to the girl's side, preparing to wake her up himself.

Realizing she had to wake up against her will, Melusine reluctantly opened her golden eyes, which were even more dazzling than before, and stared intently at Gwen—

"Why?"

"The petite fairy knight... or rather, the dragon asked."

"I hate tragedy,"

Gwen said succinctly—

"You're a good kid at heart, and you shouldn't ruin your future because of something Aurora."

"..."

Melusine's intuition told her that Gwen was not lying.

But surprisingly, Melusine didn't dislike this answer, which was completely unexpected and had nothing to do with her guess.

"Aren't you worried that after I'm resurrected, I'll cause you trouble to avenge Aurora?"

The petite girl straightened up, releasing an aura far greater than before—

Previously, she was merely a part of Albion's decaying left claw.

Now, however, she has inherited everything from the purification of Albion's entire body, and her power is completely different from before.

"I'm not worried."

Gwen smiled and held up two fingers—

"Firstly, you are no match for me, even now you are no match for me at all."

Secondly, if you actually do that, then you won't just be a poor, unlucky guy who needs my help, but an enemy who needs to be killed.

"...I see."

Melusine stared at Gwen for a long time before slowly looking away, her eyes lowered, lost in thought.

"If you really can't let go, you can go see Aurora one last time—"

She doesn't seem to have been killed by Morgan yet.

"..."

Upon hearing this familiar name, Melusine fell silent.

Even after her rebirth, the mysterious connection between Melusine and Aurora, which originated from their very essence, no longer existed. However, Melusine was still unable to completely abandon this emotion.

However, just as Melusine was about to agree with mixed feelings, she heard Gwen continue—

"Or are you planning to go see the younger brother you've adopted first?"

He may not yet know what happened, or he may be greatly confused by the sudden influx of information...

In an instant, Melusine felt that the complex emotions in her heart seemed to have calmed down a lot.

"..."

Looking up at Gwen, Melusine remained silent, her petite figure suddenly rising and flying away into the distance.

"Heh, you're quite impatient..."

Gwen chuckled softly, and his figure vanished from the spot.

Salisbury, the lord's manor was in complete disarray, not because the fairies there had learned the truth and were now launching a counterattack against Aurora.

On the contrary, the few fairies who heard the remote meeting trusted Aurora, whom they were loyal to, more than the news from the other side.

However, before they could do anything, a grand magic spell descended from the sky and destroyed everything that had been carefully arranged here, severely injuring all the fairies who had resisted.

Without keeping Gwen long, Melusine, her eyes red and her face streaked with tears, walked out of the dilapidated bedroom, her steps unsteady.

"So you've already got the answer?"

Gwen asked casually—

In fact, even without him consciously listening, he heard their conversation perfectly clearly.

Compared to the original Finality where Aurora offered her final blessing to the Fairy Knight Lancelot in despair, here Aurora reveals her ugliest side amidst despair and fear. Her vicious words pierce Melusine's heart like sharp swords, completely shattering the last bit of warmth in her heart.

"If you're really sad, have a good cry. You'll feel better afterward."

Gwen pulled out a pack of tissues and handed it to Melusine.
