Chapter 1649 - 1131: My Obsession... Your Wish...
Noconalay’s words were undeniably effective.
With her prior instructions, whether it was Reiger or Altoria, including the people from Chaldea, they all stayed in the Grand Cathedral, and the accommodations were quite luxurious.
However, almost none of them intended to truly rest, instead, their hearts were filled with urgency.
There’s no choice, with less than a week left, the collapse phenomenon of pan-human history is about to begin, even the most optimistic person wouldn’t be sleeping soundly at this time.
Especially the group from Chaldea, they basically couldn’t sleep peacefully and seemed prepared to hold a meeting overnight to continue discussions on the upcoming matters.
According to their statement, due to the limited time, they couldn’t wait for Noconalay to consider slowly.
"Tomorrow."
"Hopefully Noconalay gives us a response by tomorrow."
"Otherwise..."
Da Vinci muttered these words, evidently ready to race against time.
"Well, I can’t be of much help, I’ll just cheer you on from the back?"
Habettelot remained carefree and uninvolved.
This initial Elf Knight indeed had an attitude of detachment throughout, not interfering with the negotiations between Reiger and Noconalay and the others, just sticking by Matthew’s side, asking her various questions.
Those questions mainly related to pan-human history, but for some reason, there seemed to be frequent mentions of "bride", "wedding dress", "wedding", making Matthew’s face go red and leaving her at a loss.
Looking at Habettelot, this initial Elf Knight likely accepted the existence of pan-human history the quickest and intended to settle there, right?
That was a good thing; neither Reiger nor Altoria objected, and even Fujimaru Ritsuka, Da Vinci, and others were more than happy to see it.
They probably were already prepared to bring this initial Elf Knight to Chaldea.
As for Altoria...
For some reason, this fairy girl suddenly became heavy-hearted again.
"She’s really a troublesome girl."
Seeing Altoria like that, Reiger could only shake his head.
He’s said all he needed to say, it’s up to Altoria how she thinks and what conclusions she reaches.
Reiger only hoped that this Paradise Fairy wouldn’t suddenly have her kind-hearted nature erupt, wanting to save Britain and the fairies, unable to sit back and watch the destruction of the Fairy Country Britain’s Lostbelt.
It’s not impossible.
A look at the original text shows that when disaster strikes, there are always some people in the protagonist’s group who suddenly overflow with compassion, find their principles exploding, urgently wanting to save something at all costs, even willing to risk everything.
Such plot developments, from an observer’s perspective, might seem warm-hearted, but as a participant, Reiger could only feel overwhelmed.
The problem is that people like this are particularly numerous in Chaldea, not just Altoria, but even Fujimaru Ritsuka and Matthew are such people.
Reiger sincerely hoped such a thing wouldn’t suddenly happen, because he didn’t want to become enemies with these people.
Ever since being rejected by Morgan, Reiger made up his mind to drag her out of the quagmire of Britain.
For that, Britain... He was determined to destroy it.
"Speaking of which, what are those figures hiding in the shadows up to now?"
Reiger came to the window, gazing at the sky gradually darkening outside, silently pondering in his heart.
"What is she doing?"
...
At the same time...
The Camelot Royal City, Jade Throne Hall.
At this moment, after a long journey day and night, Bagster had successfully returned to Camelot.
"...That’s how things are."
Kneeling on one knee on the ground, Bagster reported everything she experienced last night to Morgan, who sat on the throne, in a powerful voice with her head lowered.
"The mission to pursue the Child of Prophecy ended in failure, proving my abilities are still insufficient, please Your Majesty impose the punishment."
Bagster spoke with her head lowered, yet it did not cause Morgan on the throne to change her expression.
"There is no need for punishment." Morgan looked down at Bagster, saying indifferently, "Since it’s that man who acted, the failure is understandable."
"Therefore, this time you won’t be punished for deciding to withdraw the troops on your own."
"You can leave, Bagster."
Upon hearing that, Bagster did not leave but continued to offer advice with her head bowed.
"Is there no need to send troops to Lentinen anymore?" Bagster asked, perhaps out of some consideration, "If Your Majesty still wishes to capture the Child of Prophecy, I hope you can give me another opportunity to cleansed the shame of this failure."
Evidently, even after losing to Reiger again, Bagster wasn’t ready to accept defeat.
She wanted to continue challenging.
She wanted to continue consuming.
Even though she isn’t a match for Reiger now, she will devour the blood and flesh of more and stronger beings, adhering to the law of the jungle, until she surpasses Reiger and defeats him.
She believed she could accomplish this.
After all, this is how she’s always done it.
It’s also for this reason, facing the self-proclaimed strongest, self-proclaimed invincible Lancelot, Bagster has always been unconvinced.
She absolutely refused to believe she would always lose to one person.
Yet, Morgan evidently wasn’t planning to give her this opportunity anymore.
