Chapter 39 - Chapter 39: The Start of the Banquet, Anxious Erza

"What are you doing?! … Oh! Conqueror King." Early in the morning, Erza, who was preparing to go out for some trouble and fun, suddenly encountered a familiar figure. So! Following the principle of politeness (and stirring up trouble), she went forward to greet him!

"Oh! Berserker's Master, I'm planning to host a King's Banquet tonight. Would you like to participate?" The red-haired idiot... ahem, Conqueror King extended his invitation to Erza.

"Oh! Not bad, I'd be honored to participate! The banquet of Kings (King Arthur's misery), so where is the location?" Even though she knew the outcome, Erza still asked, otherwise, she would seem like a prophet. It wouldn't be fun if others revered her!

"The location will be at Saber's territory!" Conqueror King thought for a moment, stroking his big head, and then said.

"Alright! I'll bring Berserker." Erza readily agreed! She still wanted to witness the scene of Saber being tormented. As for this female protagonist! Erza never really liked her; her ideas were too childish. She was like a child, stubborn and willful, and somewhat ignorant! She completely failed to realize how much harm her actions caused to those who supported her.

"Then! See you tonight." After bidding farewell to Conqueror King, Erza found a coffee shop to think about the upcoming opportunities.

Tonight, the King's Banquet would commence. This meant the full-scale outbreak of the Holy Grail War. The main task now was to make the Greater Grail descend. When the Evil of this World overflowed from the Holy Grail, she would throw the'Seed of Crimson Lotus' into the Holy Grail to ignite the Evil of this World. Then! She would destroy the Holy Grail, and the Evil of this World inside would be unable to escape. The 'Crimson Lotus Flame' would slowly burn away all the Evil of this World, thus completing her mission.

Among them! The Gymnastics Troupe... Assassin must die, Lancer must die, Berserker's wish is to die by Saber's sword, Goldie must die (if not, he must be killed), Enkidu is expected to disappear after the Holy Grail is destroyed. ⑨... Conqueror King must die, and according to the plot, Saber will disappear from this world due to lack of magical energy.

"Then! Tonight, the Gymnastics Troupe! Die." Thinking of this, Erza analyzed the order of their exits.

Time passed quickly, and Nightfall descended! Erza brought Berserker to the front of Saber's main camp.

"Are you nervous? Seeing your King!" Erza looked curiously at the silent girl. The plot was already so chaotic. Erza really wanted to know how Lancelot, as a young girl, managed to abduct Guinevere! After all, they were both women! Could Guinevere be a man? No! Suddenly, a toxic image popped into her head! A muscular man, dressed in women's clothes, speaking sweetly about something? Pfft! Oh no, what if she wants to vomit?

"A little bit! But I'm glad to see her still the same." Lancelot looked deeply into the small forest and sighed! She had no idea what her Master was imagining! Otherwise! She would definitely stab this delinquent fellow with a sword.

"I have a question, and I hope you can answer it!" Erza asked the Knight Girl with a strange smile.

"Please speak, Master!" Although her thoughts were interrupted, the good-tempered Lancelot did not get angry.

"That! Although, it might seem like I'm reopening old wounds. But I'm very curious, what exactly caused the split between you and Saber?" With intense curiosity, Erza unhesitatingly brought up someone else's painful past.

"Sigh! Do I have to answer?" Extremely surprised by her Master's question, the Knight Girl was a bit overwhelmed.

"Absolutely!" Raising her left hand to reveal three Command Spells, Erza indicated, 'Will you do it yourself, or shall I?'

"Alright! Alright!" Forced by necessity, the Knight Girl began to speak.

Guinevere, historically, betrayed King Arthur! She had an affair with the First Knight of the Round Table, and was the fuse for the destruction of Britain. But in this magically altered world, the girl named Guinevere actually did nothing. She hadn't even met Lancelot many times. Legend has it! She was a beautiful girl whose beauty eclipsed even heaven and earth. In Lancelot's narration! She was a silver-haired, purple-eyed beautiful girl, and very mischievous and cute! She loved to play pranks on the Knights of the Round Table, but the most terrifying thing was that even if you were pranked, you wouldn't know it until a servant by the Queen's side told you. Only then would you realize who was playing the trick on you.

"Actually! Although I do like Guinevere, I really didn't make a move. We were both framed. Unfortunately! The King knew I liked Guinevere, and he painfully gave up his love, wanting us to elope!" As the Knight Girl narrated, Erza listened, stunned.

Sigh! Something is not right! This Guinevere, how is she so similar to myself (her true self)! Could she be my descendant? How is that possible? Athena should be in Gaia's hands right now. With her personality, it's impossible for her to release Athena. And! To become some Queen! What in the world is going on here?

Just as Erza was in a dilemma, a ball of lightning in the sky struck the small forest.

"They're here!" Erza, whose thoughts were interrupted, gave up thinking! She immediately took Lancelot and walked away. The main task now was to attend the banquet. It wouldn't be good to be late!

But there was always a feeling of unease in her heart. What exactly was going on?
