"Because I failed to return the holy sword, 'Sister' beca a wandering spirit of the world, holding the holy spear..."
Although he had already learned about the fate of the King Arthur from Bedivere's world, and understood that this King Arthur had no relation to him, Rin still fell silent.
But he quickly ca to his senses and said apologetically.
"I'm sorry. Out of habit, I subconsciously used that title for that King."
"...It's alright. To be honest, if the King had a younger brother like you, I believe she would be very happy."
Bedivere could imagine that the King he served would have been very welcoming of the young man before him.
Because even in the era when the Round Table still existed, apart from a certain knight, he had never seen such a pure and untainted aura.
Of course, this was not sothing he could decide. But right now, it was just a friendly chat, so there was no need to adhere strictly to anything.
Rin could only smile helplessly at this. But he soon realized a very serious problem and said with concern.
"Since your mission, Bedivere, is to return the holy sword, what will happen to you after you return it?"
"...Just as you think. After completing my mission, my life will probably co to an end. After all, I have been holding on for so many years with Sir rlin's illusion magic, and I am almost at my limit."
Without hiding anything, Bedivere replied. But his face showed no fear of his impending death, or even the possibility that his soul might fall into nothingness. Instead, he was very calm, as if he had seen through everything, a faint smile on his lips.
"I understand. In that case, let help you find that King Arthur as well. Although that person is not the 'sister' I know, I don't want her 'wandering spirit' to continue to wander."
Understanding that Bedivere had already co to terms with his fate, Rin did not try to dissuade him, but decided to help him as a friend.
"But don't you still have to track down that otherworldly monster?"
Bedivere looked at Rin with so surprise. In his view, while eting such a special young man here was fate, he didn't want to interfere with his affairs.
"About that, I don't really understand it myself. In short, that monster doesn't seem to be in this era, but in another, more distant 'place'..."
He didn't know if it was because he had previously injured the otherworldly creature with the Spear of Longinus, engraving sothing into its body.
Rin could vaguely feel that its existence was very distant, but it wasn't a sense of spatial distance, but more like a feeling of rewinding against the long river of ti.
And based on the instinctual craving for souls from the golden spear within him, he could faintly sense that the souls that had been taken had not been consud, but rather seed to have been contained.
It was a very strange feeling.
But Rin knew that if he wanted to find that otherworldly monster, he must first have the ability to "travel through ti," and after that, he must also have the opportunity to "travel through worlds" to successfully return to Fuyuki City.
After all, he had promised his adoptive sister, Sajou Manaka, that he would return ho safely.
I wonder how my sister is doing...
A trace of worry inevitably rose in his heart, but Rin quickly suppressed his emotions and pulled his attention back to reality.
"Is that so..."
Sensing that the young man was not lying or putting on a brave face, Bedivere showed hesitation, still having so reservations.
"But this is my own business, after all. I shouldn't trouble you any further, Sir En..."
"It's no trouble. Besides, I don't know how to find that monster right now anyway. And, this is not a bother, Bedivere."
Rin replied with a sincere smile.
Under the glow of the bonfire, watching the young man's serious face, Bedivere was stunned for a mont. He knew that if he refused again, it would be sowhat rude.
"Then, allow to brazenly request your help, Sir En."
"No need to be so polite. But, do you know where that King is now, Bedivere?"
"To be honest, I'm not sure either. But after searching for so many years, this is the only place left. So I think the King is probably sowhere nearby."
Bedivere shook his head. After all, for so many years, he had crossed countless countries over and over again, yet he still hadn't found the figure of "King Arthur." It wasn't until a certain point that he had arrived at this "end of the world."
"In that case, should we ask soone first? Are there any villages or the like around here?"
He used alchemy to refold the remaining paper in his pouch into paper cranes. Rin controlled the cranes to scout the surrounding area, but could only "see" the outlines of the distant mountains and the nearby plains and the edge of the desert.
"Unfortunately, we'll probably have to cross the desert ahead to find any signs of civilization. Also, before we scout, let's eat sothing to regain our strength, Sir En."
Seeing the young man's enthusiasm, Bedivere was also quite moved. He directly handed the piece of roasted at with so gelatinous fat, which had already been cooked by the fire, to the boy.
Rin subconsciously took it, said thanks, and put the roasted at into his mouth.
But the mont it entered his mouth, Rin felt a burst of juices spreading in his mouth. At the sa ti, the texture of the at was not like ordinary at, but had a strange toughness to it.
Although it didn't taste bad, and even had a hint of deliciousness, Rin was still stunned for a mont and couldn't help but ask.
"Um, Bedivere, I don't think I detected any prey around here just now. This roasted at is..."
"Rest assured, it is just the at of an ordinary magical beast. Although in terms of appearance, it looked like a giant eyeball, its at contains no toxins. And, if it's you, you should understand. After all, as stated in the Round Table—Arthurian Quote #8."
"'Even monster at is nutritious'!" x2
Bedivere and Rin spoke in unison, causing them both to laugh.
"That is indeed sothing my sister used to say often."
A nostalgic look on his face, a smile played on Rin's lips.
"Yes. After all, we were very short on food at that ti. Even if we weren't used to the at of magical beasts at first, everyone at the Round Table got used to it, following the King's example."
Bedivere replied with a light laugh, seeming more relaxed than he had been in a long ti.
"I rember when Lancelot first found out about this, he was a bit incredulous and even offered to try and transport so grain from his own domain..."
"Did the Sir Lancelot from your world do that too? But that's not surprising. After all, he was a great lord. He probably never imagined that after becoming a knight of the king, he would have to eat things covered in tentacles..."
Under the starlight, the young man and the young knight, as if reminiscing, shared interesting stories they had experienced during their ti at the Round Table.
Even though they were from different worlds, these different yet similar things made them both feel incredibly familiar.
