This is My Heroic Path

"Are you scared by me?!"

The eyes of the two locked each other for a moment.

The tide hit the reef and turned up white waves, which also splashed on Artoria's white dress, and her hair and clothes became wet all of a sudden.

Then, after staring like this for three seconds.

"Wait, wait! It's just a little joke and—"

Artoria didn't bother to pay attention to An Zhiyu's voice, and silently pushed his head into the sea.

The dry wood ignited a flame, which also illuminated the girl's bright eyes. An Zhiyu glanced at her, "Your runes are well used."

"Practice every day and you can do it." Artoria replied lightly, without looking back at An Zhiyu.

"You're not still angry, are you?"

"I hate people who play tricks on people like this," she said quietly.

"This is just a little joke," An Zhiyu said, and glanced at the white dress she had taken off to dry, "Although it made your clothes wet."

She didn't look at An Zhiyu from the beginning to the end, but just stared at the fish being cooked in the pot in a daze.

"Something happened in the palace you just mentioned...what's the situation?" An Zhiyu was also in a daze, but after a while, he looked at the girl beside him again.

"Of course, it's fine if it's a secret. I don't mean to seek other people's secrets." Seeing Artoria's solemn expression, An Zhiyu waved his hand quickly, expressing that he didn't intend to seek anything secret.

It's just that people are somewhat curious, and he was also quite curious why Arturia would suddenly be so vigilant in just two days, so much so that she even wondered if he was the real person when she saw him.

I just came home from school yesterday, and the update will be stable after that, so... ask for votes (whisper)

Chapter 21 The woman who will inherit the king's stomach in the future

"It's okay to tell you."

When Arturia spoke, there were small flames dancing on her fingertips. This was the power of runes, and she would occasionally practice when she was alone.

She looked down at the flames on her fingertips, and continued, "Recently, some ghosts have often wandered around the palace, and some of them have turned into human forms, causing harm to many people."

"Ghost...?" An Zhiyu repeated.

"Do you think it's strange?" She turned to look at An Zhiyu.

"No...it's better to say that I'm used to it." An Zhiyu said.

There are undead around the Kingdom of Shadows, some of them are conscious, and some are just unconscious undead wandering around. An Zhiyu was frightened when he first saw these undead, but now he is almost used to it.

Because Scathach had told him before that some of these undead were warriors born in the land of shadows, and after death they turned into undead to guard one side and protect their homeland.

Although the combat power is not as strong as before, but if you form a legion, it is still an existence that cannot be underestimated.

"Did ghosts appear recently?" An Zhiyu asked.

Artoria nodded, "To be precise, it was two days ago."

"It's just that at that time it wasn't as rampant as it is now, and the king didn't pay much attention to it at the beginning... Or, because of uncle's restrictions—" Artoria shook her head and fell silent.

It is not a good thing to let An Zhiyu know too much, this is a matter of her country, it would be bad if An Zhiyu was involved.

"Uncle..." An Zhiyu muttered, and a certain person came to mind... or rather—long.

White Dragon——Baby King, Vortigern Pendragon.

He is King Uther's elder brother and Artoria's uncle.The existence of Vortigern itself represents the will of Britain, because he is Britain itself.

However, in this world, An Zhiyu doesn't know whether Voutigeng exists as a white dragon or as a human being.

An Zhiyu shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

He is too weak now, this kind of thing is not something that he, nor the current Arturia can touch.

As for the undead in Artoria's mouth, he also felt a little unbelievable. Why would there be an invasion of undead in Britain?

Is it related to King Bei? Or, Sister Morgan?

To be honest, An Zhiyu didn't really want to associate Morgan Le Fay with the undead that appeared in Britain this time. After more than four years of contact with Morgan Le Fay, he really didn't think Morgan Le Fay was a witch.

Because now Morgan Le Fay is attached to the Goddess of Death. She is not only Artoria's sister, but also the Goddess of Death. Although she always does things that people don't understand, and often molested him, but he There was no sense of malice from Morgan.

If it is said that the current witches are so good at acting, and if they act for four years, then he has nothing to say.

"Are you listening to me, Zhiyu?" Artoria frowned, staring at An Zhiyu.

"Ah? What's wrong?" An Zhiyu came back to his senses and asked.

"Didn't you listen?" She sighed, "I'm sorry, forget what I told you just now, the people in the palace will solve it, it's not a particularly troublesome matter."

"En." An Zhiyu could only nod his head.

"Then, I have explained to you clearly what happened on my side, shouldn't you also tell me what's going on with you today?" Artoria asked.

"Me?" An Zhiyu was taken aback, and after thinking about it, it wasn't a secret anyway, so he briefly talked about what happened in the past two days.

"Black dragon's blood essence?" Artoria's eyes widened a little, "You and the sister you mentioned went to the dragon's lair to steal the black dragon's blood essence?"
