I must draw my sword immediately!

Chapter 99 Permission and Rejection

#
"Celestial Sovereign, Miriam Animusfia reports: Calibration and adjustments complete, celestial magic is functioning well and ready to be activated at any time—"

"allow."

"Future Magic Department Sovereign, Afra El-Melloi, reports to you that the Future Magic Department's magic array is complete, and the optical and electromagnetic magic is functioning well and ready to be activated at any time—"

"allow."

"All monarchs of the Basic Sciences, Carol Transpelio reports that the capital's magic array is functioning well and is ready for immediate access—"

"allow."

One by one, the clock tower monarchs arrived at the gates of the Silver Crown Royal Court to report to the aloof princess, who wore a blue, strapless gown and a thorny crown.

While ostensibly reports, these are in reality exchanges of related interests, such as preferential treatment in research funding, suppression of emerging forces, or research undertaken solely to satisfy personal desires but not permitted by societal norms, which might be subject to censorship or even banning.
A qualified magician is like this: ruthless and cold-blooded, willing to do anything to reach the source, and showing no respect even to a king.

To control them, one must offer something that drives them mad, using worldly power to promise them freedom to move towards a chaotic and unknown madness.
In an era where mystery still exists and the root of the problem is within reach, this could drive such a group of madmen even further insane, potentially leading to tragedy and calamity.

But it doesn't matter.

Despite feeling disgusted, and even experiencing physiological nausea at the sight of some of the research, I persisted in doing so for the sake of dominating them, for the survival and order of the British Isles.
Morgan LeFee chose to allow it.

"Then, Your Highness, Princess!"

"Now, witness a miracle—"

pat!

It was as if striking a match in the dark instantly drew in countless eyes lurking in the shadows.

Three million eyes were all fixed on the St. Stephen's Cathedral.

The surging faith, like a tsunami, converged to form a hurricane that was almost tangible.

The billowing skirt and the silver strands of hair swept across her forehead instantly confirmed Morgan le Fay's suspicions—

She finally got to step onto this stage as she had always wanted.

The fifteen-year-old girl fixed her gaze, slowly raised her head, and cast her eyes, devoid of any like or dislike, but solely driven by a pure purpose, toward the end of the road.
The long sword stuck in the stone platform.

She took a deep breath, slowly stepped into her high-heeled boots, and onto the road that had been specially laid out with red carpet, scattered flower petals, and sung hymns.

On both sides of the red carpet, countless knights of renowned names from the capital lined up in two rows, kneeling on the ground, heads bowed, waiting for their chosen king to step onto this road.

She passed one by one the kneeling knights Euphias, Bryce, Gawain, Galahad, and Lanmarok.
Unfortunately, the figure she most wanted to see was not on this road.

She took steps forward.

To get here,

She promised concessions to the nobles and the church, wealth to the knights, and origins to the magicians.

He made a promise to Honglong.

And now, she has finally arrived here.

At the end of the road, beside the stone platform,
King Perinoa, the governor whom King Uther left to Arthur, and the father of Knight Lanmarok, was there, holding the neatly folded blue cloak with red dragons in his hands, smiling at her.

Morgan LeFy took the cloak, draped it over his shoulders with a flick of his wrist, and

Then,

Under the watchful eyes of three million people,
As this ritual, which resembled a performance, progressed, countless streams of faith flowed into her body, shaping her into the identity of 'King' and the strange power corresponding to that identity.

She climbed the stone steps one by one, stepped onto the stone platform, and came to the front of the sword in the stone.

Then, she slowly raised her head, meeting the gazes of the three million eyes that were fixed on her, believing in her. Then, in a clear and authoritative voice, she loudly proclaimed:
"My name is——"

"Morgan LeFéy!"

"She is the daughter of King Uther, and the highest heir to the British throne!" "By the grace of the Defenders of the Church, Great Britain, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and my other territories and domains, I faithfully pledge and swear that I will inviolably maintain the order and glory of Britain!"

"today,"

"In the name of the Pendragonian royal family, it is hereby declared—"

"I will deny the will of God!"

"I will deny God's permission!"

"I will veto the construction of the Tower of Divinity!"

“I will deny the holiness of the Church and the legitimacy of the Paladins in Britain.”

"I will reject all transactions that harm the order of Great Britain, and I hereby swear to exterminate all the parasites that tarnish it!"

boom!
As the oath was recited, the entire capital city, and indeed all eyes from around the world, were momentarily stunned.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the newly crowned ruler atop the stone platform.

Morgan LeFéyt.

Then, I saw—

Morgan Lefebvre slowly pulled a ruby ​​dagger from beneath his cloak and coldly looked at the sword in the stone before him.

Without hesitation, before anyone could react or rush onto the stage to stop her, she gripped the "mystery knife of the Bible" in reverse and thrust it straight at the sword in the stone!
"when!"

A sound like metal clashing against metal rang out!

The blade of the Bible's enigmatic knife shattered.
Along with it, the sword in the stone suddenly shone with a brilliant light.

What followed immediately was the sudden appearance of several terrifying auras in the arena!
Morgan le Fay tossed aside the "Bible's Enigma Knife," now only the hilt remained, and gripped the sword in the stone, ready to pull it out and point it at his enemy.

however--

She pulled hard, then suddenly opened her eyes wide in astonishment.

The sword in the stone remained completely still!

#
now,

The magic that held the illusion together began to crumble.
Sua recalled the scene he had just witnessed, a look of astonishment on his face. Just as he was about to ask Alexia beside him,

But found that
The entire Knight Street, now shrouded in night, was deserted, as if Conqueror Alexia had never been there at all.

Only the sweltering summer wind rustled the fallen sycamore leaves on the ground.

A heart that was growing increasingly silent and uneasy was pounding in his chest.

And what followed this unease was—

Five beams of light shone from the restless night, like the crazed eyes of bloodthirsty beasts!

The next moment,
Clatter! Clatter!
Shadows swirled and danced from all directions, stepping on the eaves of the buildings on either side of the street!
Suya instinctively sensed the oppressive atmosphere, placed her hand on the hilt of the sword hanging at her waist, and cautiously shifted her gaze.

Snap, snap!
Just then, Suya suddenly heard running sounds coming from the end of the street.

Soon, a white-haired, long-haired magician girl appeared in Suya's field of vision, panting. She opened her mouth, as if she wanted to remind her of something.
And the next moment,
A shadow emerged from the shadows of the alleyway and lunged straight at Merry, who had inexplicably run to Knight Street!
Suya's pupils suddenly contracted.
His clear blue eyes instantly turned into blood-red vertical pupils!

He immediately took a lunge stance, drew his longsword from his waist, and threw it, unleashing a sword light as long as a rainbow piercing the sun at the figure rushing towards Melly!
At the same time,
Four other shadowy figures suddenly pounced on Suya from four directions around him, their shadows flashing with cold light!

Suya suddenly looked up and saw—

At this moment, what was attacking him was a group of bizarre creatures with rat heads, human bodies, and leopard legs, as if they were stitched together from humans and various monsters.
