The conclusion that people in the world are big-hearted was overturned by Arturia two days later.
She silently held in her hand the "Legends of King Arthur" that Natasha had specially bought for her after she asked her question two days ago, and watched Steve nod apologetically at her and leave.
...She realized that the Avengers had not trusted her at all.
The "Legend of King Arthur" that Natasha gave her clearly stated that King Arthur was a male, he conquered many places, and even got married and had children... But she looked like a minor, wearing a white dress like a royal. Little girl dancing ballet.
In the past two days, she has been able to feel that someone is watching her. She has been restricted to this level with various euphemistic reasons. Jarvis will meet all needs, while Natasha asks about her identity in a roundabout way.
She didn't feel too humiliated because she knew very well that King Arthur was dead.
No one will believe that King Arthur has returned, no one will believe that King Arthur is a woman.
Just as she had completely understood in the past two days, there was no Gaia, no Alaya, and no Holy Grail War in this world.
So why was I called out?
Thinking of this, she took a long breath, raised her head and stared into the void: "Jarvis?"
"Yes, Miss Pendragon, do you need anything?"
"I want to go out for a walk."
"..."
Jarvis fell silent as expected, and then changed the subject in a friendly manner: "Miss Pendragon, do you want to learn about modern technology? Are you willing to experience the functions of my new equipment?"
Artoria had already anticipated the result. As a king, she understood the correctness of this behavior and was not angry. She still said gently: "Don't worry, I know what you are worried about... I just want to find a place with a better view." Let’s take a look and sit here - ah, it’s a park. Do you have a park here? I want to see it... You can ask Romanov to go with me."
Jarvis didn't say anything, but seemed to turn around to ask someone for instructions. After a while, he replied with a slight apology: "Agent Romanov will go with you. I'm very sorry, but I hope you can understand us. I wish you a good rest."
Artoria nodded slightly, feeling the eyes staring at her gradually leave.
This is a popular park near Avengers Tower. Arturia looked left and right for a long time, and finally sat down near the lake. Then she patted the grass next to her and motioned for Natasha to sit down.
Natasha sat down and the two of them stared at the lake from a distance. Natasha felt as if her mind was slowly emptying out.
Is the girl sitting next to me King Arthur?
Natasha was actually very hesitant.
Reason told her that this was impossible. Arturia and the legendary King Arthur were not even remotely compatible. She could not possibly be the holy and admirable King of Knights. This should have been a conclusive fact, but after observing it for the past two days, she was actually a little confused.
There is no denying that Arturia is a very charming person. She will always be polite to anyone, even Jarvis who is invisible; she is very strong, and she can still win or lose in hand-to-hand combat with Steve; she always has a gentle smile on her face, and when you are with her When their eyes met, it seemed that there was nothing she couldn't tolerate... If she wasn't a woman, she must be the male god in the eyes of all women.
Just like a prince in a fairy tale.
However, the more perfect it was, the more Natasha became suspicious. Arturia gradually coincides with the image of King Arthur she thinks, but she begins to question: Can there be such a perfect person?
The more perfect it is, the more it looks like a deliberately disguised illusion.
Thinking silently, she saw Artoria suddenly stand up and walk towards the lake, and immediately followed her cautiously. Arturia also understood very well and waited for her to come to her side before half-kneeling by the lake with a friendly look on her face. He looked towards the lake and asked, "What's wrong?"
Natasha: "..."
how to say? I have seen people talking to birds and animals, but this is probably my first time talking to water.
But then she was surprised to find that the water surface seemed to be boiling, and a stream of water spurted up and then fell down.
Natasha: "..." The worldview has been overturned after meeting Sol, and now it seems to have been overturned again.
Arturia still looked as if she was a happy elder watching a child playing, and said, "Don't worry about me, the world is good now, I'm happy."
Two bubbles bubbled up on the surface of the water, and then slowly rotated until a pink stone appeared in the water that was clearly a small whirlpool at the edge of the lake.
Arturia curled her lips, reached out and picked up the stone and said softly: "Thank you. It's a beautiful stone, I like it very much."
The water surface boiled again, this time the degree of boiling increased a lot. Then Natasha looked like "..." and saw the whirlpool on the lake spinning faster and faster, and then turned and floated away like a shy girl who saw her idol.
wait--! Feeling like you're meeting your idol's crush? !
Natasha suddenly remembered that in the legend of King Arthur, there was indeed a record that King Arthur could communicate with the elves in the lake.
Although she didn't see anything.
"That was the legendary lake spirit just now?" Natasha looked very interested, deliberately or unintentionally making up the words. "Beautiful stone."
Arturia turned to look at her and smiled: "This is a gift given to me by the spirit in the lake - do you want it?" After seeing Natasha shaking her head, she looked at the small pink stone and murmured to herself. "Mysterious, special stone."
Artoria heard the call of the Lake Spirit while she was in Avengers Tower. Although she is friends with both the water and wind elves, her relationship with the lake elves is closer.
[King Arthur~King Arthur~Are you back? 】
Arturia first heard the call of the elf in the wind.
【King Arthur~ We miss you very much. Welcome back, I really want to see you... I really want to meet you~]
Then came the requests brought in by passing birds.
In this unknown world, there is nothing better than being able to meet old friends. After hearing the words of the lake spirit brought by the birds, she made a request to Jarvis... and then came to this park with a large lake.
【welcome back. 】
【welcome back. 】
【welcome back. 】
Wind, water...the voices of the joyful elves lingered in my ears. This made Arturia extremely nostalgic and happy.
Then Arturia heard the spirit of the lake calling earnestly: "Come here, King Arthur."
Arturia immediately stood up and walked to the lake - of course, she did not forget that she was still being watched, so she waited for Natasha specifically, and also saw the vigilance in her eyes.
