Chapter 21 - Chapter 21: Fairy Knight Britomart

To be honest, Cang Ye had already prepared himself to encounter all sorts of things that were clearly out of place for the simulated historical background, including but not limited to high-tech, indescribable horrors, and things like flesh ascension, even before he started the simulation.

After all, the Type-Moon world was just that magical. The original history had been modified beyond recognition.

But if you were to say that in such a medieval setting, where chivalry was revered and people were still fighting primitive battles with iron weapons, to see something that was clearly a power armor or a robot warrior appear, it would be impossible not to feel a sense of absurdity and want to complain.

Cang Ye was in that mood right now.

Looking at the other's burly figure and the orange-red energy lines flowing on its black shell, Cang Ye really doubted that even if he used his full-power 『Intercepting the Flow』 attack, he would be able to break its defense.

Family, this time I've really run into a wall. I can't win... (crying)

"Who are you, and what do you want."

Feeling the other's powerful Divine Age aura, Cang Ye had a slight guess in his heart, but he still forced down the urge to run and said in a state of high alert.

Don't get me wrong, Cang Ye wasn't the kind of righteous hot-blooded youth who would disregard his own life for the sake of fame. If he could run, he would definitely not look back.

The reason he wasn't running now was only because the cave entrance was blocked by the other's two-meter, almost three-meter tall body.

Besides, with just his legs and that little mare, racing against a Gundam?

You must be joking.

Unable to run, Cang Ye could only brace himself and face the situation.

But the other party didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards him. He just stood there and said in a firm tone.

"Don't worry. Since you are one of my kind, I will definitely not harm you."

"Then what is your purpose in following me?"

Although Cang Ye was a little surprised that this person didn't intend to make a move, he still didn't put down the spear in his hand and remained vigilant, looking at this mecha-freak.

"My purpose?"

Hearing this question, the other party seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then, under Cang Ye's bewildered gaze, he raised his right index finger, placed it on his chin, and looked up at the sky in a thinking posture.

What is this situation?

Why is a man in a Gundam making the coy thinking pose of an anime girl?!

This is just too out of place!

Cang Ye felt a little powerless to complain.

But the other party didn't notice his expression. After pondering for a long time, the muffled electronic voice carried a hint of probing.

"I want to travel with you. What do you think?"

?

Cang Ye was really dumbfounded now. What did this guy just say? Travel with him?

Brother, do you really think I, Lamorak, am a fool? With your Divine Age aura that's even thicker than mine, do you really think I don't know who you are?

And you're pretending to be innocent to deceive me, a junior. Do you really think I'm that easy to fool!

Thinking of this, Cang Ye immediately stopped playing dumb and said coldly.

"Hey, you've already come to see me dressed like this. Don't treat me like a child you can easily deceive."

"I'll be direct. Vortigern, although I was chosen by the Divine Age like you, I am definitely not one of your kind, nor will I ever be."

"If you're here for revenge because I killed so many of your men, then make your move. I, Lamorak, will die in battle! I will never be a coward and surrender!"

With that, Cang Ye assumed a look of someone ready to die, his spear pointing forward at the so-called 'Vortigern'.

"Eh, eh, eh?"

The Gundam was stunned by Cang Ye's series of words. It was only when he saw Cang Ye pointing his spear at him that he realized he had been mistaken for someone else.

So he hurriedly waved his hands and explained.

"No, no, no! I'm not some Vortigern! I'm Britomart! Fairy Knight Britomart!"

"What? You're not Vortigern?"

Cang Ye was stunned by these words, but he immediately frowned and denied it.

"How can you not be Vortigern? The Divine Age aura on you is so thick. In all of Britain, probably only Vortigern, who was chosen by the Divine Age, has such an aura."

"Also, Fairy Knight?"

Cang Ye's expression became a little strange.

Isn't that something from the future British Lostbelt?

How can something like a Fairy Knight exist in Proper Human History? Even if there really was a fae who wanted to become a knight, how could they appear in a Britain where the passage to the Inner Sea of the Planet is now closed?

Could it be that I didn't come to Britain, but to the British Lostbelt from a long time ago?

And at this moment, the Gundam who called himself 『Fairy Knight Britomart』 saw that Cang Ye didn't believe his words at all and became a little anxious.

The eyes hidden under the Gundam helmet also became hesitant and flickering.

He thought for a moment and finally made up his mind, saying to Cang Ye.

"Anyway, you and I are both Fairy Knights. It's fine to show you my true face. When you see my real appearance, you will definitely believe what I said."

"Hmm?"

Before the bewildered Cang Ye could react, he saw the Gundam in front of him begin to vibrate.

Then, the orange-red energy lines on it began to flicker rapidly.

Then, under Cang Ye's shocked gaze, the black Gundam spewed out a cloud of white mist, and then the armor plates on various parts of its body began to fall off and dissipate.

In less than a minute, the tall and mighty black Gundam had disappeared without a trace, replaced by a beautiful silver-haired girl in a white and gold dress, with a proud figure and a large expanse of skin revealed at her chest.

Holy crap, the Gundam turned into a beautiful girl!

The girl's eyes were indigo, similar to Cang Ye's. She had bright eyes and white teeth, her long hair was tied into two buns with ponytails, and on both sides of her head were a pair of pointed elven ears.

At this moment, the fae girl named Britomart was looking at Cang Ye a little shyly, her small hands nervously clutching the hem of her dress, her large eyes full of expectation.

"See, I didn't lie to you, right? I really am a Fairy Knight!"

Feeling the aura from her that was very similar to his own, and those cute ears that represented her fae identity.

Cang Ye finally understood that this girl hadn't lied to him. She really was a fae.

But questions also followed one after another.

Didn't they say the Inner Sea of the Planet was closed? Then where did this Britomart come from, and she calls herself a Fairy Knight?

And the name Britomart... it sounds a little familiar?

Have I seen her somewhere before?

Feeling Britomart's gaze become more and more anxious and uneasy, Cang Ye finally came back to his senses from the questions in his mind.

He looked at the harmless appearance of the girl before him, and since she didn't seem to have any ill intentions, he thought for a moment and finally put down his weapon, signaling her to sit by the fire.

And this action, in Britomart's eyes, was a symbol of Cang Ye's acceptance of her.

So she showed a happy expression and sat down next to Cang Ye.

"Um, your name is Britomart, right?"

Cang Ye threw a few more pieces of wood into the fire to make it burn brighter.

As the warmth slowly entered his body, driving away the fatigue and dampness from traveling in the forest these past few days, Cang Ye couldn't help but feel a little relaxed.

"Yes! Britomart! I inherited the name of my mother, Britomart I, and I'm striving to follow her example to become a qualified Fairy Knight, Britomart II!"

Hearing Cang Ye actively ask for her name, Britomart was very happy and chirped like a little sparrow.

"What about you, my companion? What's your name?"

Britomart looked at Cang Ye beside her, her eyes bright and full of curiosity.

"Um, my name is Lamorak, a wandering knight."

Cang Ye scratched his head. He wasn't very good at dealing with enthusiastic and cute girls like Britomart.

Cang Ye felt that he was more suited to getting along with rational older sister types like Morgan.

But to be fair, although she had the heart of a young girl, Britomart's figure was surprisingly good, far surpassing that of a typical older sister type.

"Alright, then please take care of me, my companion Lamorak!"

Obviously, this fae girl already thought that Cang Ye's previous words were an agreement to her request.

Seeing her so happy, Cang Ye felt a little embarrassed to spoil her fun and say that he actually still needed to consider her request.

After all, no matter how good-looking and harmless Britomart was, she was still a stranger he had just met.

Cang Ye was not one to trust someone so easily.

But more than these, what he was most concerned about now was how Britomart came to Britain.

After thinking for a moment, Cang Ye felt that being direct was much better than beating around the bush, so he asked Britomart.

"Britomart, so how did you come to Britain? Have you always lived here, or did you come from another place?"

Hearing Cang Ye's words, Britomart was stunned for a moment. Her beautiful large eyes blinked, her expression a little puzzled.

"Of course I came from the Fairy Kingdom. Aren't you, Lamorak?"

Fairy Kingdom? Oh, that should be the Inner Sea of the Planet.

Cang Ye knew that it was the Reverse Side of the World, and the location of Britain in the Inner Sea of the Planet should be the Fairy Kingdom that Britomart was talking about.

After thinking for a moment, Cang Ye shook his head and denied Britomart's words.

"I didn't come from the Fairy Kingdom. In fact, I've never been to the Fairy Kingdom since I was born."

At this point, Cang Ye smiled a little embarrassedly at Britomart.

"I might not be a so-called Fairy Knight like you. After all, I haven't received any certification from your Fairy Kingdom, and I'm not a pure fae now. I still have human blood in my veins."

"It's okay."

Hearing Cang Ye's words, Britomart not only didn't show a surprised expression, but also replied with a smile.

"My mother said that as long as you have the spirit of a knight and dream of becoming a knight, all fae can be Fairy Knights."

"As for the human blood, you don't have to worry about it. Because I'm also half-human, half-fae."

"Ah."

Hearing Britomart's words, Cang Ye was stunned for a moment.

Is the determination of a Fairy Knight in Proper Human History so sloppy?

It doesn't seem as prestigious as Fairy Knight Tristan, Gawain, or Lancelot...

And, aren't fae supposed to look down on humans?

Even if this is Proper Human History, it's still the prototype of the Lostbelt. Wouldn't Britomart, with her half-human blood, be bullied in the Fairy Kingdom?

Hmm...

Looking at the innocent girl who was happily hugging the grilled fish Cang Ye had given her.

Cang Ye dismissed the doubts in his heart.

Such a sweet and innocent girl couldn't be the product of bullying.

Does this mean that if possible, I can also take the new Camelot and Morgan to the Reverse Side of the World to take refuge?

You must know that at this time, Morgan and the Kingdom of Camelot had already deviated from the course of history. They were new branches on the tree of fate.

Cang Ye knew that the Type-Moon world had the two Counter Forces of 『Alaya』, representing the primates, and 『Gaia』, representing the nature of the Earth.

He didn't know if his actions, which were similar to tampering with fate, or even dancing madly on the head of fate, would attract the attention of 『Alaya』.

What if the Counter Force intervened and 'accidentally' destroyed Camelot in the struggle between the White Dragon and the Red Dragon? What should he do then?

What would happen to Morgan, who had sacrificed everything for it?

As for whether Cang Ye's actions of taking Camelot to the Inner Sea of the Planet would create a Lostbelt or a Singularity.

That would not be the business of Kotomine Cang Ye of the Holy Church, but the business of Gudako and Mash of the world-saving organization Chaldea.

And so, Cang Ye posed this question to Britomart.

"Britomart, do you know how you got from the Fairy Kingdom to Britain?"

"Ah?"

Hearing this, the white-haired elf girl who was gnawing on a grilled fish was obviously stunned, and then she looked at Cang Ye with some embarrassment.

"Why are you asking this... it's a little embarrassing."

?

A big question mark appeared above Cang Ye's head.

Why are you blushing?

"Alright, since we are partners now, we should be honest with each other."

As if having made some kind of decision.

Britomart turned her head slightly towards Cang Ye and spoke softly in his ear.

Cang Ye felt a warm breath blowing in his ear, making him a little itchy. The faint fragrance of the fae girl also lingered at the tip of his nose.

In this ambiguous posture, Britomart said softly to Cang Ye.

"Actually, I secretly ran away with my mother's treasure."

Cang Ye: ?

So you're just a runaway teenage girl?

And you have the nerve to call yourself a Fairy Knight in front of others?

Cang Ye felt his rising urge to complain becoming unbearable.

But in the end, he forced himself to ask, "So how did you get here? Through the old passage?"

"No, the old road was blocked. I came out this time following a white-haired nightmare."

The only thing Britomart was reluctant to talk about was the fact that on the surface she was pursuing her ideals, but in reality she was running away from home. She wasn't embarrassed about other things.

She quickly explained the situation to Cang Ye.

And after hearing it, Cang Ye felt a toothache.

So it turned out to be all Merlin's fault.

In short, Merlin got drunk and messed up. He went back to Avalon to get something while drunk, but because he was drunk, he forgot to close the passage after he was done.

This led to the runaway Britomart discovering it before the passage's energy dissipated and thus coming to the present world of Britain.

And so, Cang Ye understood that his plan to take Morgan and Camelot to Avalon was now in vain.

But soon Cang Ye realized a problem, and his gaze at Britomart immediately became strange.

Miss, when you ran away from home, did you ever consider how you would get back?

"What's wrong, Lamorak? You look a little strange. Are you not feeling well?"

Britomart held the grilled fish in one hand and looked at Cang Ye with a worried expression.

With that, she also reached out her other clean little hand and touched Cang Ye's forehead.

The girl's cold and tender jade-like hand made Cang Ye stunned for a moment, and then he quickly changed the subject.

"No, no, it's nothing. By the way, Britomart, what was that black mecha of yours just now? How does it have such a thick Divine Age aura?"

In any case, Britomart was in a good mood now. There was no need for him to say anything to make her anxious.

It's better to wait and see if there's a chance to help her solve this problem in the future.

"This."

Hearing Cang Ye ask about the black Gundam, Britomart's expression immediately became a little proud, her little face filled with unconcealable pride.

"This is one of my mother's strongest treasures. It's called 『Fortress of the Queen - Oceanic Shell Armor』"

"It was originally the famous armor worn by the Anglo-Saxon Queen Angela, who fought against the previous King of Britain, Uther Pendragon. Later, because my mother became friends with King Uther and provided a lot of help, he gave this armor to her."

At this point, Britomart proudly extended her hand to Cang Ye. A black mecha gauntlet instantly appeared on her hand, the energy lines engraved on it glowing faintly.

"See, this armor can also be worn like this. And it's said that its defensive power can be as high as a human fortress."

Cang Ye was stunned by Britomart's words.

Did he hear her right?

This thing that was similar to a Gundam was actually the armor of the Anglo-Saxon queen who fought against a young Uther?

So the so-called knight battles in your Divine Age Britain are just mecha fights?

Looking at the black, tech-filled mecha gauntlet, Cang Ye's eyes were full of complaint.

If this continued, he wouldn't be surprised if he saw a knight with a laser sword in Vortigern's camp in the future.

What kind of medieval Britain with a crooked tech tree is this!

"By the way, Lamorak!"

At this moment, Britomart, who had been talking non-stop about her mother's stories, suddenly changed her tone and said to Cang Ye with a hint of embarrassment and pleading.

At the same time, the system's voice also sounded in Cang Ye's mind.

[Host, I've found the mythological records of Britomart!]

But at this moment, Cang Ye didn't hear what the system was saying at all.

His mind was full of the softness of Britomart grabbing his hand and placing it on her proud chest, and her shy and expectant words.

"Lamorak, can you help me with my mana?"
