Ch-117: San Graal, The Nemesis Of Earth Mother Goddesses
"So you have pity for him, but you sacrificed your own compatriots? Hum? What a kind hearted woman you are~"
Athena mused sarcastically, the more she looked at Guinevere's face, the more annoyed she became.
If she hadn't known that Roy was planing something, she would have already sent this hypocritical Divine Ancestor back to the cycle of reincarnation.
Even if Guinevere will not really die, it will make her unable to do anything for decades, and she can obliviously, only wait for her resurrection.
"Master Athena, as I said, even if there was no me, the Mother Earth Goddesses are bound to die. The king has to seize the essence of the Earth Goddesses for his own use, even he is unwilling to do so. This is his mission, and I just speed up this process."
Guinevere deplored, her tone remained neither too humble nor too arrogant, she was also an insulted Earth Mother Goddess, but she didn't hold any hate for the 'steels' that overthrew her.
Instead, she joined the cause of killing the Earth Mother Goddesses, to some extent she was also a traitor determined on her cause and knows what she is doing and its possible consequences, a scolding from Athena wouldn't bring any change to her.
"Traitor or not, honestly, Miss Guinevere, you are really amazing. The Last King killed a powerful Godslayer of England in his travels. This anecdote was only circulated among the medieval mages, but you adapted this anecdote in the Middle Ages to make it take a form of historical legend."
"In "The Legend of King Arthur", you even became the queen of King Arthur, the Earth Mother Goddess, Gwenhwyfar of feminine principle of strength and peace thus became the Queen of Britain, Guinevere."
"You even verbally spread the myth of your own creation, so as to wake up the last king by summoning him as King Arthur. Even I have to admire your ability and intelligence."
Roy clapped her hands gently to applaud Guinevere.
This divine ancestor really used the rules of this world to the extreme. Since the myth is woven by humans, she used her long life to actively weave her desired legend, and even actively wrapped herself into this myth.
After thousands of years of fermentation, the false legend of "King Arthur" became real.
"But I still failed. I used the Heretic God Summoning Ritual to summon King Arthur, but with no gain. To find the final sleeping grounds of the 'king', I can only take more orthodox methods."
Guinevere sighed, her delicate body and melancholic expression looked so pitiful, enough to in a heartbeat, arouse a man's desire to protect her.
"Master Roy, you tell me where the "king" sleeps, and I will offer you this body to enjoy to your heart's content. As a fallen goddess and King Arthur's wife, I'm confident that I will be able to satisfy you, the Devil King on Earth, in any way you want~"
Guinevere said in a light tone, with a sweet and noble smile, trying to show off her petite body, she was even cruel to the point of selling her own body for the Last King.
"T, This shameless fallen goddess! No, the other goddesses fall helplessly, and you, you dirty traitorous swine choose to fall on your own accord, your pride, dignity, everything you had, has fallen down in shambles! We are even ashamed of being categorized as the same Earth Mother Goddess as you!"
Athena rebuked angrily, her lovely face flushed red in anger.
"The more you focus on fun, the more fun you have. Umu~"
Roy smiled befuddledly.
If he tells Guinevere about the location of the Last King and she wakes up the Last King, Roy, who is definitely not ready at this stage, will certainly be killed by the Last King.
The whole life for a single night? Nah, this deal was a total loss! His inner shrewd businessman spirit spited on such a loss making business.
Although Guinevere is beautiful, as long as he lives a long live he will definitely get entangled with more and more beauties.
Who will forsake a garden blessed with plethora of beautiful flowers for a single flower?
Only a moronic jackass!
"Ah, I think that will be too heavy-! So, let's lighten our proposal, shall we?"
"So, Miss Guinevere, how about you let me see the Holy Grail, and I will tell you know where the Last King sleeps. How about this proposal?"
Roy's voice changed, and the course too, this was his real goal!
"I-It's that simple?"
Guinevere suddenly became vigilant. If Roy had just asked for her body, Guinevere would have at most treated him as an arrogant and erotic demon king.
But if she got to know the last king's rest grounds just by showing her Holy Grail, she will make a lot of money no matter how she looked at it, but Guinevere didn't believe him, how could she gain so much for so little. She, Guinevere is a super cautious girl~!
"It's indeed that simple, but I will also lower the effort on my part. I can tell you where the Last King is sleeping, but I won't tell you the specific location."
An imperceptible cunningness flashed in Roy's eyes that fleeted without anyone taking a notice, he secretly activated his 'Face of God' as he answered while presenting the Crowley bloodline's trademark smile.
The same smile that helped Aleister easily woo girls left and right. Like cabbages or carrots found in market.
Because Roy wasn't forcibly distorting Guinevere's will, but just maneuvering her own thoughts to guide her, Guinevere didn't realize that he had activated his powers.
Sure enough, she just followed through after an ounce of hesitation. Her heart that seeked to meet the Last King made her do so.
"Okay, then I will let Lord Roy see the real Holy Grail, and Lord Roy, you must tell me the area where the king sleeps."
Although it was not possible to directly know the most exact location where the Last King slept, in Guinevere's view, being able to know a rough range was enough for her.
She has been looking for the Last King for hundreds of years, she didn't care about searching again for a decade or two more.
Guinevere being a decisive person she was, does what she says. After she made up her mind, she lowers her head and chanted the spirits of her calling.
"May I Be Made Conscious Of The Flux And Reflux Of Energies That Surround Me!"
"May I Comprehend All People, Places And Things, Their Interrelationships, And Their Destinies While They Roam Around Me!"
"May My Mind's Eye Be Opened To Events That Will Happen Within The Spinning Wheel Of Time On This Plane That Surround Me!"
"As Their Destinies Eternally Go Around Me!"
A wave of almost liquidified mana condensed, even if the condensate of mana pools of a dozen godslayers were added together, the huge mana fluctuation wouldn't have matched, it flowered up like the activation of a volcano, like a tsunami that was about to erupt.
With a light churn of Guinevere's hand the viscous mana turned into substance that ultimately gathered to form into a cup.
The golden-yellow brilliance gleamed across the streets of this Manhattan Island, and Roy stared at the Holy Grail that appeared in front of Guinevere.
The Holy Grail was different from what people thought as in taken from legends and myths. Its size seemed to be taller than Roy. It was not as much a cup as much a huge trophy.
This is the Holy Grail of this world's legend, like the Holy Grail of nasuverse Romani briefed him about, it was a condensate of whopping quantity of mana!
Holy Grail aka San Graal, was created with the dying breath of the Mother Earth Goddess Gwenhwyfar, both to aide her in finding and reawakening her master and friend, the King of the End, from his long slumber, and aide him after he awoke again.
That's why Roy didn't arbitrarily snatch the Holy Grail because the Holy Grail is Guinevere and Guinevere is Holy Grail!
Because the Holy Grail itself was transformed by Guinevere's original body, it was not wrong to say that it was a part of herself, so unless Guinevere takes the initiative to take it out, it is impossible for anyone to find the Holy Grail.
And in this millennium, this Holy Grail has absorbed the essence of at least tens of Earth Mother Goddesses!
Whenever the Last King finishes his mission, he will re-inject the leftover essence into the Holy Grail and then fall asleep again, waiting for the next awakening.
As the Earth Mother Goddesses essence absorbed by the Holy Grail increased more and more, its magic power also increased, forming a virtuous circle.
Now, this legendary holy thing and the murder weapon of Earth Mother Goddesses has graced the world with its presence once again.
The white haired demon king who went by the name of 'White Asura' suddenly laughed.
This was going to be easier.
Roy's right hand stretched out from his pocket as he untied the sacred cloth strip on his hand, and a weird distortion like a mosaic appeared on his right shoulder.
(Note: This is not his [Hand of God], remember the mosaic that appeared on his right arm if he didn't have the Shroud of Turin?)
Before Guinevere's expression changed drastically, Roy made a sword-holding stance with his right hand, and at the same time called out loud as the innate high-speed incantation possessed by Godslayers worked behind the scene.
"Help Me Banish The Pain I Feel, For This Lackluster Feeling Has No Appeal!"
"In The End, Who Can Compare With This BEAST, Who Can Fight With It In My Stead!"
"Neither I Know, Nor Thee! Laughingly, I Alone Take It, Like It Had Always Been—!"
"Duty Bounded I May Be....!"
"For Now I Judge Thee, Guilty!"
The blood-red cruciform sword flaring with golden pristine flames materialized in his right hand, the sword stretched like a rubber band and slashed down with a powerful force of thunderous waking.
"Uncle!"
The danger made the beautiful Queen of Ancestor shout out like a little mistress calling for her sect's backing.
