Chapter 23: The expedition starts
Not long after sunrise, Artoria pushed open the door. Guinevere who was the queen, came out with her.
"Velo, nothing happened last night." Even though it was a question, Artoria said in a confirming tone.
Obviously, Artoria believed in Wu Ming and believed that he could handle it even if something happened.
"It's okay, a safe night." Wu Ming shook his head. Even though he didn't sleep all night, he didn't have the slightest problem.
"That Since it is already noon, Sir Vero should take a nap." Guinevere asked behind Artoria.
"Yes, Vero, to avoid mistakes at work, you should take a nap." Artoria was also worried.
"It does not matter. When I travel, I sometimes do not sleep for three days and three nights. It doesn't get in the way of just one night." Wu Ming shook his head.
To be honest, Wu Ming accidentally got a giant egg. After eating it, he was hunted for three days and three nights by a Demon Beast that he couldn't fight back then.
That egg was the child of that Demon Beast, Wu Ming In the end jumped into the water and stayed in the water for a long time before the Demon Beast stopped chasing huh.
"Thinking about it now, it was really dangerous" Wu Ming muttered.
"What?" asked Artoria confused.
"It's fine, fine, let's hurry up and eat. The chef has to make breakfast. After eating, we should have the first round table knights meeting." Wu Ming hastily covered up.
"Then let's go, Guinevere." Artoria said to Guinevere behind her.
"Un, my king." Guinevere smiled a little.
At the time of laughing, Wu Ming and Artoria both froze for a moment, and then reacted.
"Guinevere, you are very beautiful." Artoria exclaimed with a flushed face.
This surprised Wu Ming, and Artoria wasn't going to try to put on a fake show, the two of them were likely playing lesbians.
But Artoria next sentence made Wu Ming uneasy.
"No wonder it was Vero who was blown away."
This time, she didn't speak to Guinevere, she stopped talking, but looked at Wu Ming with a flushed face.
"Ah~ better go eat, it's not good when it's cold," said Wu Ming immediately.
"Don't let the food get cold." Artoria eyes lit up, and she immediately thought of the dining room and walked towards it, and dragged Guinevere to follow her.
....
After eating, Artoria went to prepare various things for the meeting, and Artoria asked Wu Ming to take Guinevere to the library of the royal palace which Guinevere requested.
Wu Ming slowly landed on the rock and opened his eyes.
"Please come in."
Entering the door was a knight with a strong face.
"Oh~ this is Kay, is there something the king is looking for for me?" Wu Ming asked when he saw someone coming.
"Yes, Sir Vero, the King has something to ask you, it is about the battle."
Ever since Kay joined the Knights of the Round Table, she was brought to the royal palace by Wu Ming and worked as a secretary.
According to Wu Ming understanding, apart from being a bit unable to control his own mouth, Kay was an excellent knight in other aspects.
"I know, I will go now." Wu Ming jumped off the rock and walked towards the door. Kay leaned to the side, meaning to let Wu Ming be in front.
Wu Ming patted Kay shoulder and said.
"Next time, just call me Vero, don't add Sir, you and Gawain, Agravain and the others why are you so stiff," Wu Ming said solemnly.
"Sir Vero, I will definitely change it later."
"This word doesn't know how many times Gawain has said it. Forget it, you can call me whatever you like." Wu Ming shook his head and said helplessly. Kay smiled a little too.
After that, Wu Ming and Kay came to Artoria office.
Honestly, because of Magecraft, Britain now looks like a thousand years later in many ways.
For example, this office has floor-to-ceiling windows, colorful silk, mahogany desks, mahogany bookshelves, marble floors, and the straw paper that Wu Ming used when he came to Britain a while ago instead of parchment.
As Wu Ming sighed, Artoria spoke.
"Vero, I will soon be fighting the Saxons in northern Britain." Artoria face was a bit ugly.
"Did something happen?" Wu Ming asked.
"Look at this information." Wu Ming borrowed the document Artoria had given him.
Wu Ming complexion got worse the more he looked at it, although not as bad as Artoria, but also serious.
"You decide, my king." Wu Ming handed it to Kay who was standing at the side. Which means he agrees.
"Kay, send orders, the entire army is assembled, the target is the Dekker Reis Fortress in northern Britain."
Kay who had finished reading the document, had a gloomy expression on her face, and accepted the order.
"Yes, my king."
