An Unknown Fate

Chapter 38 Traitors

[You successfully retrieved the sword in the stone.] 】

[In order to prevent Morgan from sending troops in pursuit of you, you and For left Orkney overnight and returned towards the stronghold where the army was stationed. 】

[Although you feel guilty for deceiving Gareth and Garhoris, and almost ruining Morgan's magic workshop, the situation forces you to apologize to them next time.] 】

[Fortunately, you didn't encounter anything on the way back, and you returned to the stronghold smoothly.] 】

[And your righteous sister Artoria has also regained a holy sword as promised by Merlin, according to her, this is also a sword given by the fairy of the lake, and its scabbard also has the effect of healing all damage and protecting the bearer.] 】

[You are very happy about this, because with such a weapon, the safety of your sister is guaranteed again.] 】

[However, your righteous sister Artoria has proposed that you hold the scabbard, because the role of the scabbard is not only to protect, but more importantly, to heal. She hopes to rely on the power of the scabbard to bring your eyes back to normal. 】

[You were stunned for a moment, and did not refuse your righteous sister's kindness. However, even if Merlin tried to integrate the scabbard into your body by magic, your eyes still could not see the light, which seemed to make Merlin realize something, but he did not say it explicitly, just shook his head. 】

"There is no way for a scabbard to do this."

[Instead of being depressed, you comforted your righteous sister Artoria, and by the way, Merlin took the scabbard out of your body and returned it to Artoria.]

[Because you know, this scabbard is more meaningful on your sister's body.] After all, King Arthur's safety is now closely related to Britain. 】

[In addition, you have confidence in your own skills and do not need this kind of protection. 】

[Of course, your sister Artoria refused at first, because since the scabbard has already been given to you, there is no need to take it back. But under the joint persuasion of you and Merlin, your righteous sister finally agreed to keep it for you for the time being, and when the war was over, she would return it to you. 】

[In desperation, you had to nod and agree. At the same time, you also return the sword in the stone that you took back from Morgan to your  sister. 】

　　...... 

"The sword thing comes aside. That woman... Cough, Sister, she shouldn't have forced you to do something strange, right? "

Putting aside the sword in the stone that took over, Artoria coughed lightly and asked with a serious face. 

Because the boy was so fast to get the sword back, Artoria couldn't help but worry a little about whether Morgan's identity was discovered when Rin Aozaki sneaked in as an undercover agent. 

Then, in order to get the sword back smoothly, he was forced to agree to some despicable and shameless conditions for the woman. 

"No. Merlin's illusion worked, and Miss Morgan only discovered my identity at the end. Moreover, on the contrary, my side caused a lot of trouble for Miss Morgan, and accidentally blew up the other party's castle before leaving. "

Rin Aozaki shook his head, his little face slightly apologetic, and these words made Artoria breathe a sigh of relief, and a smile reappeared on her pretty face. 

"It's okay. It's just a castle, presumably she won't care, and you don't have to blame yourself too much, Ian. Besides, it was also hers side that was wrong first, stealing the sword in the stone, which is completely legitimate for us. "
