573. Pursuit and sacrifice

Lei patted her face and looked at the reflection in the creek. The swaying figure stood on the bank, with a beautiful long sword on her waist.

Past Glory - a weapon given to the girl by the knight. It is said to be a sacred weapon made by the lake fairies who live in Avalon, Fantasyland.

When delivering the sword, he said to Lei:

"This weapon can only be controlled by a girl with a pure soul? You ask me why she is a girl? Well, that...

"By the way! The purity of soul I am talking about is definitely not the flawless purity of natural diamonds, because their beauty is given by God.

"I mean the kind of purity that has been tempered by countless fires, as pure as steel, and you are one of the very few."

Lei has noticed it.

When she turned into light and escaped, pain and strength found her one after another, as if they were already chasing her when she escaped.

At that time, the knight lied. He said it was a sequelae, and Lei told herself this because it was easier to accept than the other possibility.

Maybe he also discovered his suspicions, so the knight didn't hide his character and behavior at first. At this time, the knight and Bedivere were completely different.

But as time passed, the clues became more and more obvious. The knight's expression, tone, and content of the warning all declared a simple fact.

He is not Bedivere.

And that power is obviously the power of Bedivere. The progress of inheriting his bloodline has been compressed and accelerated, which is why it is so painful.

The process of inheriting the bloodline was inherently difficult, and the ceremony slowed down the process, when she had to complete the originally long inheritance in a very short period of time.

Pain is also trapped in a brief moment.

The knight said he would go ahead and take a look.

There is no one else around Lei now.

She thought about running away.

She waved the long sword in her hand at the trees, and the magic power flowed into it smoothly, and the hazy light enveloped the sword blade.

She easily left a few scratches on the tree trunk, and Lei could hardly detect the existence of resistance. If she thought about it, this giant tree more than ten meters high would collapse.

She turned her gaze to the trickling stream next to her. Lei inserted her long sword into it, and the stream skirted to both sides as if encountering the blazing sun, revealing a river bed covered with pebbles.

She thought about running away, but a voice in her heart told her:

No.

She can't run away.

Although Lei didn't know who was wearing Bedivere's appearance and following her these past few days, she felt that the matter was not over yet.

She had the obligation to find out his purpose, and the things Bedivere had told her couldn't just be abandoned, so she didn't reveal the identity of the fake Bedivere these days.

But she discovered in the past few days that the purpose of this fake knight seemed to be the same as Bedivere's. What he did was exactly what Bedivere originally planned to do but had not yet completed - to teach her.

Moreover, he also found a weapon that was almost tailor-made for her. She had read "The Legend of King Arthur", and King Arthur once received a broken steel sword as a gift from the Fairy of the Lake.

Lei suddenly picked up the sword from the stream and looked towards the other end of the forest.

The ground seems to be shaking slightly?

Bedivere's figure lifted up the covering green leaves and rushed into Lei's eyes. He looked very embarrassed, and he was followed by several fully armed knights.

Bedivere was breathing heavily, his breastplate was completely deflated, his body was stained with blood and scars, and he had a look of determination on his face.

When he was some distance away from Lei, he turned around and threw a dazzling light gun backwards, and then the dazzling light swallowed up several knights behind him.

He staggered up to Lei, who had not yet reacted, and then reached out and pressed her forehead:

"Go tell Gawain that the group of knights who were lost in the Holy Grail War have returned with hatred and madness. Run away.

"They got me."

The dark sword blade pierced Bedivere's chest, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

Lei asked calmly:

"Then they..."

The girl paused slightly, then summoned up the courage to ask.

"Did they kill you?"

The knight smiled very strangely at Lei, and then pushed forward.

Lei felt a dazzling white light emerging from behind her. Her body had moved away from its previous position, but she could still see Bedivere in front of her, and the next moment...

Countless scarlet spears pierced the knight's chest, and then he knelt down weakly, then fell forward.

Yes.

Bedivere is dead.

This was the answer Merlin gave her.
