Chapter 164
Gawain lunged forward, using his body to cushion the crown's fall, not daring to let it drop to the ground.
This is a symbol of the highest authority in Britain; how can it be thrown away so easily?
However, even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to directly rebuke the two people who were confronting each other.
If someone dares to forcibly stop him, he'll end up like Gawain, sandwiched between two Noble Phantasm and beaten into a pulp on Sword Gawain!
"I was corrupted by the Holy Lance and turned into a god. If it weren't for the Nameless One's intervention, I would have destroyed Human History along with the Demon God King."
Artoria sighed heavily, her usually strong and stern face now filled with endless regret.
She looked out the window, her expression wistful. "Xiao Mo, I am no longer qualified to be king. Only you are fit to inherit the throne."
After reading "The Sacred Round Table Domain," she felt endless exhaustion as she recalled the 1,500 years of memories she had lost.
The memories of her divine era were so lofty and unfamiliar that she couldn't believe it was her.
Tired, weary.
Let the throne, the responsibility of protecting Britain, be given to those who desire it.
Now, Artoria just wants to be an ordinary girl and live an ordinary life.
What could be better than leaving the mess to Xiao Mo and going off to enjoy a happy life with Wuming?
Earlier, when I was looking out the window.
Artoria recalled the days she spent with him, when she could sit comfortably in the kotatsu and wait for the nameless man to prepare a sumptuous dinner.
But now, I don't know where the other person is, or who is with them...
"But I refuse! I have no interest in the so-called Britain throne!"
Mordred answered without mincing words.
Are you trying to dump this mess on me so you can go enjoy your daily life?
No way!
Ring ring~
A knock sounded at the door, and a guard at the entrance whispered, "Your Majesty, the King of Heroes has arrived."
"Open the door," King Arthur replied.
The door opened.
A familiar Gilgamesh figure strode in, asking with a puzzled look, "Everyone, what are you doing?"
The person who arrived was none other than the most ancient King of Heroes.
He had already bought this grand hotel in advance, and having sensed the strong fluctuations of the powerful Noble Phantasm, he came without hesitation to watch the spectacle.
Oh no, I mean, mediating a fight!
Mordred frowned at the other person. "This has nothing to do with you, does it?"
"Of course it's related! I bought the hotel for over 10 billion. If you're willing to spend the money, you can tear it down!" Gilgamesh replied with a smile.
"Over 10 billion..."
Mordred instinctively withdrew her Noble Phantasm.
You don't know the cost of firewood, rice, oil, and salt until you're in charge of a household.
After becoming prime minister, he frantically demanded money in all aspects of life, including people's livelihood, military, and politics.
Britain has long been an empty paper tiger, unable to even maintain its superficial power.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have had the audacity to come to the Dragon Kingdom.
Mordred couldn't help but grit his teeth. "Damn it, does having money make you superior?"
"Sorry, that's amazing."
Gilgamesh's smile grew even brighter; having finished watching the show, he naturally turned to leave.
As one of the richest Heroic Spirit in the world, he now enjoys showering people with money more and more.
I love your envious, jealous, and resentful expression, yet you're nowhere near as envious as me. It's so delightful!
The clock ticked softly, its sound echoing gently.
The four people in the living room were all dozing off while watching TV, quietly waiting.
The second hand finally pointed to midnight.
Wei Gong and the three little girls all smiled and said at the same time, "Happy New Year!"
Staying up late on New Year's Eve to welcome the new year.
Now, the new year has arrived.
"Finally here, I'm going to sleep." Luo Ya and Ilya both yawned and headed towards their bedrooms.
In the living room, only two people remained in the blink of an eye.
Miyu spoke softly, "Happy New Year, brother."
"Happy New Year."
Wei Gong got up from the kotatsu, walked to the balcony, and looked out the window at the countless fireworks exploding.
At midnight, countless people were still cheering and playing outside.
Life without fighting is wonderful!
A firework suddenly exploded.
The little girl who had followed him whispered, "Brother, the night is so beautiful tonight!"
"Indeed, the fireworks were beautiful."
Wei Gong looked up at the vast night sky.
He wasn't one of those deaf male protagonists in anime; naturally, he could clearly hear what the little girl was saying.
Perhaps it was the Bonds forged by the Holy Grail that made the little girl Miyu instinctively have a fatal attraction to him.
Having a younger sister is quite nice.
He reached out and gently patted the other's head. "You should go to sleep early too, you're going to pray for blessings tomorrow."
"Okay, brother, you should go to sleep early too."
Miyu nodded, turned around, and went back into her room.
On such a cold day, the three little girls naturally slept together at night.
Wei Gong also wanted to move closer to warm up.
Ahem, officer, I really just wanted to warm myself up, don't get me wrong!
The next morning.
Wei Gong prepared breakfast in advance and woke up the three still groggy people.
If you want to go to a temple or shrine to worship and pray for blessings, you should go early.
After breakfast.
Luo Ya blinked her big eyes. "Wei Gong, are you confident you can help me put on the kimono?"
This sentence is precisely the subtle way a local girl in Sakura expresses her feelings.
I had just said it.
Her two best friends immediately turned their attention to her.
Wei Gong replied with utter disdain, "Go wear it yourself, you're too lazy to do it like a pig!"
"Tch, serves you right for not being popular with women!"
Luo Ya pursed her lips.
It seems I still need to grow up as much as possible; I must have the heart to win someone's heart.
"Let's go, off to worship Amaterasu..."
Luo Ya led the way, walking out of the house with her two best friends.
Amaterasu is the supreme deity of Japan.
You could absolutely take advantage of the New Year to pray for good fortune and ask the other person to bestow Karma upon you!
Then, she'll make that nerdy guy so infatuated with her that he'll never be able to leave her again!
"Right, I should first pray that I can grow up and possess a great heart!"
Luo Ya carefully tossed the coin into the tub and shook the thick rope.
Then he put his hands together, closed his eyes, and began to pray earnestly.
Click~
There seemed to be a cracking sound coming from somewhere.
It sounded like a stone cracking.
"Huh, did I hear that right?"
Luo Ya looked around in confusion.
A calm atmosphere prevailed, and both best friends were earnestly praying.
It's probably just a hallucination.
This is the sacred temple of Amaterasu; even the Humanity's Evil wouldn't dare to act recklessly here.
Luo Ya continued her prayer, "May Amaterasu bless me, and may Wei Gong become completely infatuated with me!"
Click~
This time, the sound of something breaking was exceptionally clear.
She stared in disbelief as she discovered that the statue of Amaterasu enshrined in the main Amaterasu was actually—
It cracked!
No one could believe it.
A New Year's prayer resulted in the Amaterasu cracking open, considered the worst ominous sign in history.
Rumble~
Before everyone's stunned eyes, the entire colossal statue completely collapsed!
Ilya stared blankly and said, "Could it be that the Demon God King Goetia, who wants to destroy Human History, is about to descend?"
Even Amaterasu, the Sun God, couldn't withstand the collapse; only the terrifying Demon God King was able to do it.
"Phuket Island..."
Luo Ya was equally stunned.
I'm just an ordinary little girl, so why does praying to a deity cause the statue to collapse?
Damn it, doesn't Amaterasu want to grant my wish?
I'm so angry!
After offering New Year's blessings, the three parted ways.
Everyone went back to their own homes, to their own mothers.
Back home, Luo Ya was still furious. "When I prayed to Amaterasu earlier, the statue collapsed!"
"Forehead..."
Wei Gong looked at the other person with a strange expression.
Then, his gaze fell on the Fox Scarf that had been placed in the gift box.
