He glanced at the injured Lancelot beside him.

  Daniel smiled.

  “So it’s such a small matter. I can help you solve it.”


  After hearing this, Artoria felt that something was wrong. She saw a dagger stab directly into Lancelot’s chest.

  “You…”


  Before she could say anything, Lancelot fell to the ground.

  But this time, he really could not get up.

  “We have helped you two things since we came. One is to capture the enemy, and the other is to execute the traitor. As friends, shouldn’t you do us a favor?”


  Ignoring the anger of Artoria, Daniel smiled slightly.

  Artoria was very angry now.

  There was a rebellion by her subordinates, and then there was an outsider forcing the palace.

  The day did not go well.

  It was not that Lancelot could not die, but he had to die in the trial of the people, and not be stabbed to death by an unknown person.

  But it was too late when she tried to block it.

  That was when she saw the horror.

  She was now at the peak of the half-step Eternal Realm.

  Wouldn’t that mean that the one who attacked faster than her was already in the Eternal Realm?

  Thinking of her opponent’s terrifying strength, Artoria did not dare to move. Instead, she patiently chatted with him.

  “Then what do you want us to help you with?”


  “Rune, hand over the rune and we’ll leave immediately.”


  Seeing that Artoria had relented, Daniel smiled slightly.

  Sure enough, it was still about the rune.

  Artoria’s heart sank.

  But then she thought about it.

  The rune was not in her hands, so why was she nervous?

  The one who should be nervous should be Su Han.

  Thinking of this, Artoria instantly relaxed.

  Seeing that King Arthur suddenly let out a sigh of relief, Daniel frowned.

  Previously, he had heard from those people who went to communicate that she had a serious expression when she mentioned the rune.

  Why did she let out a sigh of relief now?

  Daniel’s heart was filled with unease.

  He felt that there was something wrong with the rune.

  As expected.

  Soon, he heard King Arthur say something that he did not want to hear.

  “The rune, that thing is no longer with me now, so you can only find someone else.”


  “How is that possible? My subordinate told me before that you said that you did not know about this thing, and now you say that it is no longer with you. Who knows which of your words are true?”


  Daniel didn’t believe what Artoria said.

  “What I said this time is true.”


  Artoria looked helpless.

  “Previously, I didn’t know your intentions, so of course I said I didn’t know. Now, it’s really not here.”


  Artoria spread her hands.

  Seeing that King Arthur didn’t seem to be lying, Daniel’s expression changed.

  It seemed that what he had felt that night was real.

  There was really something wrong with the rune.

  Since the rune had left her hands, she should know who had taken it.

  Thinking of this, Daniel looked at Artoria and asked sternly, “As friends, shouldn’t you let us know who has the rune?”


  “I only know it was a handsome guy who passed by. He exchanged the rune with me at the price of improving my strength.”


  “I heard that there was such a benefit. Of course, I immediately exchanged it,” Artoria said half-truthfully.

  After all, Su Han was her teacher’s savior. No matter what, she wouldn’t betray him.

  After looking at Artoria for a long time, Daniel revealed a smile.

  Seeing this smile, Artoria felt that something was wrong.

  “Honorable King Arthur, I know that you are not lying to me, but are you hiding some information?

  “According to what I know, a few days ago, three people entered your palace and did not come out.”


  Saying this, Daniel paused.

  “In order to let our dear friend remember the specific information, bring them out.”


  As soon as she finished speaking, a black-robed man walked out with a woman.

  However, her mouth was sealed, so she could not speak.

  She could only use her eyes to signal to Artoria.

  Upon seeing this woman, Artoria knew where her uneasiness came from.

  Because this woman was her good friend, the future Queen — Guinevere.

  Artoria suppressed her anger and asked, “How despicable. Is this the way friends treat each other?”


  “Of course not. It’s just that friends shouldn’t hide things from each other, right?

  “And I’m doing this to make you remember. I had no choice.”


  Daniel smiled and spoke.

  “Of course, if you can remember, it’s best if you tell us. Otherwise, Miss Guinevere will have to suffer.”


  “Hehe, what a last resort. You guys are so hypocritical. It seems that I have to teach you a lesson.”


  Artoria, who had her head lowered, laughed.

  In an instant, she drew her sword and stabbed at Daniel.

  As long as he was restrained, everything would be fine.

  Then, this sword…


  He caught it with one hand.

  Artoria was stunned.

  She knew that the other party was powerful, but she did not expect him to be able to catch this sword with his bare hands.

  All the Knights present were also stunned.

  When the black-robed man arrived, they had already come to the King’s side. They could not let this group of aggressive people deal with the King.

  When they saw the King make a move, they were still very excited.

  With the previous battle record as the foundation, they hoped that the King could teach this black-robed man a good lesson and let him know what etiquette was!

  Don’t be so sarcastic all day long.

  However, they did not expect that the sword would be easily caught by the other party.

  “This sword is not bad,” Daniel said this lightly and directly let go.

  Artoria also took the sword and returned to her original position with a solemn expression.

  It seemed that ordinary moves could not deal with the other party.

  She had to use a more ruthless move.

  Suddenly, Artoria’s expression changed, and she raised the Sword of Victory over her head.

  “Light Sword!”


  The 60-meter-long Light Sword was displayed once again.

  “It’s coming! It’s the King’s ultimate move!”


  “That’s right, she killed more than half of the Knights of the Round Table with a single sword. Even if she can’t kill him now, she can at least hurt him.”


  The Knights were still very confident in the King’s ultimate move.

  After all, the movement was frightening.

  “Go!”


  Following Artoria’s angry roar, the huge Light Sword slashed directly at Daniel.

  “Hmm, not bad. She’s considered invincible in the half-step Eternal Realm.”


  Seeing the Light Sword in front of him, Daniel did not show any fear. Instead, he commented lightly.

  “However, in front of a true Eternal Realm expert, half a step is like a natural moat.”


  As he said that, his right hand lightly tapped against the incoming attack.

  In an instant, the terrifying Light Sword disappeared.

  “This… how is this possible?”


  Seeing this scene, everyone present was stunned. They were extremely shocked.
