Naruto: Opening the Holy Grail War

Chapter 145 Retracing the Dream of Britain

"Is that the legendary "Sword in the Stone"?It is said that the person who pulls out this sword will be the next king! "

"That's right, it is said that it is the "King Sword" that no one can pull out. "

"That's just to prove that those guys don't have that qualification!"

Discussions suddenly sounded in the ears, and Nagato opened his eyes and found that the scene in front of him had changed greatly.

Surrounded by simple and unsophisticated cities, pedestrians are bustling, and the knights in silver armor are majestic and mighty.

"This, this is..."

Nagato looked confused, isn't he in the base camp of the Akatsuki organization in the Land of Rain?How could it suddenly appear in such a place?

While he was in a daze, more and more people rushed over and squeezed him out.

Just when Nagato was about to get angry, he suddenly noticed the window beside him, and in the reflection he saw a strange yet familiar figure.

Short hair, white sackcloth, and even the reincarnation eyes in the eyes are not reincarnation eyes, replaced by a pair of dark pupils.

"what?"

Nagato was taken aback by his appearance at this time, but soon he saw a group of figures approaching together.

"It's the great figures of the Knights!"

"So handsome...!"

Nagato followed the gazes of the crowd, and found several figures with obviously different temperaments walking towards them.

"Give way……"

The two knights walked ahead and said very politely.

And the next moment, the originally crowded platform gave way one after another, and several knights filed in and walked to the front of the "Sword in the Stone".

"I believe you all know it? As long as you pull out this "Sword of King Selection", you will be the next king! "

Standing in the center of everyone, that is, beside the "Sword in the Stone", is a man with long silver hair, wearing a white robe, and holding a black wooden staff in his hand.

The most interesting thing is that his ears are composed of six colorful light feathers in three grids on the left and right. Coupled with that handsome face, it is enough to make people fascinated.

"No matter who is eligible..."

"It's the Chief Magician of the Court!" "

"Ah...so handsome~"

Such words of primary and secondary hindered Nagato from listening to the speech of the people above, but it didn't matter, because he already understood what kind of situation it was at the moment——

——What he is in is not the "real world", but the experience of the servant formed through the contract and energy.

This moment is the time period approaching before Artoria pulls out the "Sword in the Stone".

"The next step is Arturia coming out and pulling out this "King's Sword", right? "

Nagato pinched his chin and murmured as he watched the people going up one after another trying to pull out the sword.

As Artoria's Master, he possessed advanced knowledge and already knew what the outcome would be.

Artoria will pull out the "Sword in the Stone" and become a "Wise King" to bring ancient Britain to an unprecedentedly powerful and prosperous state.

Then with Lancelot as the fuse, the knights of the round table began to split, and finally the powerful empire collapsed, and the legend of King Arthur was also ended by his "son: Mordred".

——During the Holy Grail War, the master and the servant may dream about each other's past.

Although we know the ending, the process is also very important. If the former is a cup of fine wine, then the latter is the preparation for the intoxicating fragrance while waiting.

In other words, he is currently in Artoria's "past".

Although he already knew the ending and the future, looking at the knight and the "Sword in the Stone" above made him feel alive.

In the end, he lined up with the attitude of "try it out" and stood in front of the stone with the "Sword in the Stone" stuck in it.

This is Arturia's Noble Phantasm, and it is also the beginning of her becoming king...!
A stone of this size could be crushed with just a wave of his hand, but this was not the case.

In this "dream", he can't use any power, nor can he change any direction. Naturally, he can't pull out the sword that symbolizes the next king.

"Please hold on to the "Sword of the Chosen King". "

The warm and refreshing voice brought him back from his thoughts, and standing in front of him was the "Chief Magician of the Court".

When he came back to his senses, he saw the person in front of him looking at him with a smile on his face. Those eyes were beautiful and deep at the same time, as if he had seen the past, present and future.

Nagato nodded, held the hilt of the sword with one hand, and then exerted force—"Sword in the Stone" remained motionless.

"You don't have the qualifications to become a "King", please go down. "

Merlin shook his head, reminding him as usual.

Nagato was not annoyed, he was thinking about a question in his mind - "If Mordred came to draw this sword, would she be able to draw it?"

But even in a dream, what he didn't know was that Merlin specially prepared this sword for Artoria, and no matter how competent the king was, he couldn't pull it out.

Only Arturia.

At dusk, Artoria's figure did not appear as Nagato expected.

The moon and stars were turning, and the sky had just dawned when an unexpected figure appeared here.

"Do you want to try to draw this long sword?"

Apart from Nagato, the only one who stayed here overnight was Merlin.

At this moment, Merlin was standing in front of a girl who seemed to be only 15 years old. This girl was dressed as a farmer, and she looked like she had just woken up to go to work.

Her blond hair was tied behind her head, and there was a puzzled look in her green eyes.

"As long as you pull out this "Sword in the Stone", then you can become the "King" of the entire ancient Britain. "

There was a smile on the corner of Merlin's mouth, and he looked at the girl in front of him with full eyes. He looked like a big villain who turned right on the ignorant little girl - and it was true.

Nagato, who had been watching not far away, twitched the corner of his mouth. Didn't expect this to be Artoria's beginning?
Induced by Merlin, Artoria stood in front of the "Sword in the Stone", facing the silence of the day, she gently held the "Sword of the King" with her small hand.

At this moment, Nagato's eyes blurred, and what appeared in front of him was the end of Great Britain's demise.

It was through the contract that he was able to see the same scenery as Artoria, which also made Nagato understand this fact...

Arturia saw the future when she drew the sword.

Nagato's eyes looked at the petite figure on the platform, holding the "King's Sword" tightly with both hands-she could give up pulling out this sword at this moment.

After seeing that ending, she can not bear such pressure.

But she didn't.

Knowing that Great Britain would still perish, she pulled out the "Sword of the King", and those weak shoulders shouldered the fate of Great Britain at this moment.

The brilliance of the holy sword cut through the night, and echoed with the brilliance of the sun breaking through the night in the distance.

At this moment, she sealed her gender in the armor named "King". She was "King" and also a girl who was only 15 years old-at this moment her body stopped growing.

What are girls thinking at this age?
If you are a ninja, you will probably get together with your friends or people you like after completing a certain task, right?

If you don't become a ninja, you should be with your parents and enjoy the blessing of family affection, right?

At this moment, Nagato suddenly thought of Xiaonan, who had been by Nagato's side for ten years.

Is she really happy like this?

Looking at that petite figure, she is so stubborn, and she has no complaints when she bears such a heavy burden on her frail shoulders, which makes one feel pity.

Just when he had such thoughts, his vision was surrounded by white light, and when he opened his eyes again, he had already returned to the Xiao organization's residence.

"Master, Semiramis' Noble Phantasm has reached its final stage."

A cold and calm voice sounded in his ears, Nagato turned and looked, and standing at the door was Artoria in armor.

There were no emotional fluctuations on her face, and her heroic figure was full of strength.

"Well, I see."

Shaking his head, and sealing that memory in his heart, Nagato stood up from the reclining chair.

Walking out of the room, Nagato and Artoria walked directly into the dense forest behind.

Because the materials needed by Semiramis are too large, they can only be placed in the dense forest behind.

From the time Semiramis was summoned, Nagato mobilized a lot of manpower and material resources to search for the materials needed for Semiramis, and after that Semiramis began to make her Noble Phantasm.

"The Sky Garden of Vanity".

As long as this treasure is manufactured, they can use this treasure as their base camp.

And when they arrived, an island had already appeared in the empty forest, standing tall and ignoring the laws of physics, filled with the fragrance of birds and flowers.

And in the center of the island is a splendid palace, which is also the center where Semiramis uses this Noble Phantasm.

With Semiramis' magic chanting, this huge island slowly rose.

Countless birds and beasts were startled and fled in all directions, and Semiramis, who was below him, was also excited.

As long as this treasure is completed, it means that her strength can be completely liberated.

"The guy who made this noise is really an assassin?"

Jiaodu leaned against the tree and watched the slowly rising giant with his mouth twitching, it was all money!He did it. I don’t know how many rewards he made, a little bit of money he saved!

Distressed!

"It's better to say that it is a magician who came with the rank of assassin."

Mordred was sitting on a rock not far away, pressing her ankles with her hands. At this moment, she had taken off her armor and replaced it with a refreshing outfit... It was a navel-baring outfit that would make Arturia blush.

……

I wonder if you want to see this kind of dream about the past of the follower?
