To be safe, Arkhan decided to proceed with caution.
"Madam, could you please tell me your name?" While speaking, he discreetly traced a mysterious rune in the air behind him.
[Rune - Truth]
If she dared to lie, Arkhan would immediately sense it!
"Oh, I'm really sorry, I forgot to introduce myself."
The woman stood up somewhat flustered and bowed to Arkhan.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Guinevere."
The Rune didn't respond.
'Is she really Guinever...

Izumi was the most impatient one and, taking the first spot in the queue, clicked on her bookmark name.
It was no different from the others, except for an additional note.
[Note: An exchange student from Rouge en rouge, Minamiya is trying hard to make her transfer to Another Dimension.]

Izumi was speechless.
Exchange students? it seemed to carry a certain awkwardness.
Elf struggled to stifle her laughter behind Izumi, silently admiring Homura...

"???"
XX tilted her head, confused. She couldn't understand what he meant by that reproachful gaze.
Just as she was about to ask Artorius for further clarification about what he meant by that gaze, and while the Artoria Species on both sides continued to argue, the villa's front door suddenly swung open.
A group of Artoria Species streamed out, more precisely the Heroine Subspecies, with Z leading the way.
"Seeing everyone so spirited, I feel relieved..." Z said to eve...

As Artorius watched Z in her white attire clutching her buttocks, not to mention him, even the cunning and calculating Morgan's assessment of the so-called 'Ultimate Heroine' plummeted a notch.
This reaction indicated that XX wasn't joking earlier and had given Z a spank on her behind in the past.
Could a final boss who had been spanked even be considered a final boss?
In any case, Z, realizing the situation, quickly calmed herself, adjusted her expression, and resumed her a...

After leaving Karl's blacksmith shop, Arkhan chose to take a longer route home.
It wasn't that he didn't want to take the shortcut; it was just that recently, with the day of the king selection approaching, a large group of knights from out of the town had come to Tintagel.
These guys were as energetic as rutting bulls, with nothing much to do around here, so they spent their days looking for sparring partners.
With his black hair and eyes, Arkhan attracted quite a bit of at...

Artoria gazed at her reflection in the mirror.
With her golden hair pulled up, a masculine waistcoat and trousers, arm and leg armor signifying her knightly identity, and those striking azure eyes and delicate features, she looked entirely different from her former self.
The knightly demeanor she had been groomed with from a young age made her eyes radiate a sense of valor, making her appear more like a handsome knight. Unless someone was exceptionally familiar with her, no one sh...

After a satisfying meal, they loaded the dishes, pots, and pans that could go in the dishwasher directly into it and left the rest in the kitchen. At this point in time, no one had the inclination to do the dishes.
Each of them held a cup of tea, lounging comfortably on the living room sofa. Even Yuriko's expression was remarkably calm and peaceful.

However, Hado's sudden full-belly burp drew everyone's attention.

"On May 22nd." Nozomi nodded.

"So, let's temporarily suspend our individual practice." Umi suggested. "Our performance in the open day is the most crucial thing for us."

It was like when siblings always fought and insulted each other when at home, but when they ventured outside, they supported each other without hesitation.
This principle was also applied to the relationship between a parent and a child.
No matter how chaotic things might be between Artorius and the Artoria Species, it was all the Pendragon's business. However, if those vampires as outsiders interfered, the nature of the situation would change.

Brunestud of the Crimson Moon.
From her perspective, this was her first encounter with Artorius. But from his point of view, it was the second meeting.
Their last meeting had been fifteen hundred years later.
So, time was indeed an intriguing thing.
Artorius hadn't had the chance to meet Aozaki Aoko, the missile launcher lady from the Aozaki family, for a deep conversation to obtain the Fifth Magic. It was a regret, but fortunately, there was a chance to make amends.

With trembling eyes, Merlin looked at Arkhan, feeling the overwhelming superiority from the realm of higher intelligence.
He tilted his head down, his eyes vacant, his expression lifeless, as if he had turned into a gray photograph.

In order to demonstrate the fairness of the competition, Merlin and Arkhan each selected three challenges, totaling six in all. The side that won the most challenges would be declared the overall winner.
Merlin didn't hesitate and took the lead in proposing the first challenge, clearly intent on asserting his dominance over Arkhan.
He gently tapped his staff on the ground, creating ripples of light that spread outward and instantly enveloped the three of them. The surrounding scen...

Artoria fell into a long silence.
Though sometimes naive, she was by no means foolish. Artoria as King Arthur, whom Uther and Merlin had placed great hope in, possessed not only extraordinary strength but also considerable wisdom.
This was evident in her upbringing—most of Kay's homework was copied from Artoria.
Previously, she couldn't see the truth, merely blinded by the fog of this era. Now, Arkhan had dispelled all those mists, and she could clearly see the chain that ...

This kindergarten was even earlier than his own school.

With that in mind, he signaled to the three girls, and they immediately walked over to investigate.
It was not that Homura wanted to do anything specific, he just wanted to get closer and take a look to satisfy his curiosity.

As Artorius muttered and mentioned 'planet', Gaia, as the will of the planet, couldn't help but shudder which triggered a magnitude seven earthquake and a twelve-meter tsunami in Southeast Asia.
Natural disasters struck when Gaia was in a sour mood, reflecting the lousy state of the Counter Force.

The two of them then walked out of the house, strolling along the edge of the lake.
Artoria remained silent, keeping her head down.
Arkhan didn't rush her, casually enjoying the scenery along the way. After spending over a decade in that desolate land of the dead, even seeing a pile of manure could bring joy to his heart.
"Actually, there's something I've been wanting to tell you, but I never knew how to say it..." Artoria said hesitantly, her eyes shimmering.

The wyverns wailed in agony. Their once-proud vitality had now become the source of their suffering, plunging them into a profound and constant pain, corrupting their senses.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the black flames gradually subsided. The wyverns' bodies miraculously remained intact, showing no signs of burns. However, anyone who saw them now would subconsciously think of 'death.'
Their 'lives' had been completely and utterly 'corrupted'.
