Dragon of the Root

Chapter 16: Outpouring

Three days later, Artoria disguised as a man with a special Magecraft, received a healing ceremony from the Pope. To be honest, Wu Ming was fed up with the coronation ceremony. After all, as a king, someone else must be crowned.

Well, even though this was always the case in the West, Wu Ming had no interest in gods or anything like that.

It wasn't that Wu Ming didn't believe in the existence of gods, in this world filled with mysteries, anything one could imagine could possibly exist.

God Word must exist in the Type-Moon world. Even in the ordinary world Wu Ming had lived before, who could guarantee that there was no god before.

After the coronation ceremony, Wu Ming did not leave immediately. After all, as a symbol of Camelot, he still had to greet the messengers sent by the kings. This is called diplomacy.

After the envoys from various countries left one after another, Wu Ming sat in the palace hall and sighed.

"Hah~~~~"

"Vero, are you alright, it seems you have worked hard." Artoria asked beside Wu Ming.

As a king, naturally she would host Wu Ming together.

"It's fine, but I'm still not used to being a politician~" Wu Ming said lazily.

"Politician? The word you coined is a very apt description of Vero." Altoria read Wu Ming modern language carefully, and was astonished.

"Ahahaha, actually, this is also a word that other people have taught me," Wu Ming said with a bit of embarrassment.

"By the way, what do you think of the Knight Order I spoke of?" Wu Ming asked.

"Well, I think that's great, it can be done," said Artoria firmly.

"The recruitment of knight members must be strict. Ability doesn't matter, character is key." Artoria immature face was slightly serious, looking at Wu Ming.

"Don't worry, I thought of all this, and you will be the last reviewer in the end." Wu Ming said while touching Artoria face.

"Yeah really Why are you touching my face?" said Artoria blushing.

To be honest, every time Wu Ming made physical contact with Artoria, Artoria face turned red, sometimes a little red, and sometimes as red as a monkey butt.

"Because I thought an owner with a childish face like this would carry the burden of the whole country on his shoulders, and I felt that God was unfair." Wu Ming eyes were filled with sadness.

After that, Artoria face didn't blush anymore.

The two fell silent and didn't speak again.

"When I found out I was going to be king, I was so scared." Artoria paused and continued, "Merlin told me I was born to be king, and he has been teaching since I can remember. All that I must have as a king. I train constantly during the day, and at night, Merlin uses Magecraft to teach me Knowledge slowly, I'm tired of this." Updated from nov𝒆lbIn.(c)om

Wu Ming stopped touching Artoria hand.

"Because I'm afraid, the more I know, the less I feel that I'm capable. I'm afraid I won't be the king Merlin hopes for, or the king people hope for until"

"Until what?"

"Until I met you." Artoria looked into Wu Ming eyes, with green eyes with waves.

"For as long as I can remember, I have known the story of the British Silver Dragon. As a knight, he was very kind, noble, strong, smart and intelligent, and he was kind. All of Camelot people are praising him, I'm slowly starting my efforts to target the British Silver Dragon."

Wu Ming put his hand down and listened carefully to Artoria words.

"Originally, you met me in the forest where I often train, and you said that you would accept me as your knight servant. I was very happy at that time. I moved out of my adoptive father house and moved into yours."

Artoria lowered her head and smiled.

"A few years later, after I found out about your relationship with Merlin, I understood that a 'meeting' in the forest had been arranged, but I was still very happy. Because of you, Merlin had to slow down my training. Because of you, I can feel the happiness of being a girl, because of you, I feel love, finally because of you, I get the motivation to become a king."

Artoria raised her head and saw Wu Ming, she threw her body into Wu Ming arms.

Artoria opened her mouth slightly, ""

Wu Ming pupils shrank slightly, he was slightly surprised. If he listened carefully, the last sentence that was so weak that he could barely hear clearly was...

Wu Ming didn't move, but his eyes were unfocused.

Wu Ming did not expect that Artoria would have so many thoughts. After thinking this carefully, he felt relieved.

The girl was told that she carried a heavy burden since she was born. Currently, there is another idol who is perfect, charming and handsome. He was responsible for the things that the girl had to endure.

After a deliberately arranged "meeting", the girl meets the idol and hangs out for ten years. Over the years, the idol has shown careful attention to girls.

The girl is very happy and slowly falls in love with the idol. When the girl officially accepted the burden, the girl confessed everything to the idol.

Wu Ming now felt that Artoria would become like this now, and he could be considered the cause.

"That girl's heart is really mysterious," thought Wu Ming.

Artoria looked at Wu Ming who had no intention of hugging her, and lowered her head, her face pale.

Artoria stood up and said "Um, I have something to do, I'll..."

Wu Ming gave a tight hug, holding Artoria, who was originally petite, in his arms.

Artoria was a little surprised at first, but after reacting, she hugged Wu Ming tightly. Artoria face was pressed against Wu Ming chest without the armor, and the corners of his mouth curled up as she listened to that strong heartbeat.

"Artoria, I'm sorry." Wu Ming said.

Artoria was surprised in his arms.

"I can't guarantee that I can accompany you to the end, but I will do my best to accompany you to the end. This is the best guarantee I can give you."

Wu Ming signed a contract with King Uther, as long as Wu Ming completed the contents of the contract, he would be released. He who is not from this era, the greatest possibility after liberation is to return to the era that belongs to him.

This is what Merlin told Wu Ming at the beginning. He immediately informed Artoria of his concern.

Whether it's because of believing in Wu Ming, or learning from Merlin, Artoria hasn't changed much, she said lightly.

"Enough."

The two figures hug each other...
