Chapter 278: Tamazuki's outrageous explanation

"Your wish isn't hard to realize. In other words, you just want to have another chance to start over, right?"

Start over.

Everything would be restarted from the beginning, where everything had just started.

Saber was stunned, but then she nodded. "Yes. I want to start over." She wanted to start over when she just pulled her sword and began her journey once again, then led her country to become great again.

Yet, she also wondered whether this was okay since it also meant that she wasn't going to respect the lives of others.

Due to her selfishness, they would be killed again since she wanted to start over.

In other words, their lives were nothing.

If it was an RPG game, they were just NPC that no one needed to care about or remember.

Their lives were cheap and could be discarded at any time.

Frankly, Saber's wish was a normal thing.

After all, who was among anyone who didn't have any regrets?

Even those who hadn't passed away would regret their youth, thinking they could be better or something, right?

Saber's wish was something like that.

"This wish is possible since as long as you get the Holy Grail, you will gain access to the Root, and you can master The Fifth Magic, which is capable of you to time travel to the past, giving you a chance to start over."

With the Holy Grail, Saber's wish was easy to realize.

Saber was stunned since Tamazuki told her that her wish was easy to realize and it was humane enough since there was no need to kill all the mankind that was listed as a threat in the world.

Nevertheless, in the eyes of Iskandar and Gilgamesh, the original disdained such a wish since Saber's wish would make the struggle of the people under her mean nothing, and she did this wish for her selfishness.

Yet, was Saber wrong?

Tamazuki knew that there was no right or wrong in this problem. It was just a matter of position, and could the opinion of others affect other's life?

The life experiences of Alexander, Gilgamesh, and Arturia were different, so their views of life were also different. Nevertheless, whether Alexander or Gilgamesh were kings, once Arturia's opinion was different from theirs, they would refute her. Moreover, they had an advantage in numbers, so they made Arturia's wish wrong by standing in a high place with a high moral attitude that her wish would trample the lives of her subjects.

However, the reality?

It was they who were wrong, and Arturia's way of ruling was correct.

If Gilgamesh and Alexander were in this present time, then they would have been killed by their subjects already. Lastly, as a king, why should they pretend like they cared about the lives of their subjects?

Frankly, Tamazuki could tell that Gilgamesh and Alexander didn't care much, but a king was impossible not to have self-esteem, and Saber's correct and righteous way of ruling was correct, and their way of ruling was wrong, so they attacked Saber at the same time.

Moreover, in reality, even a king, emperor, czar, raja, and many others must have a regret or two, and if they were given a chance to start over, who could confidently say that no one was unwilling?

"...Tamazuki, do you think it is alright for me to ask such a wish?" Saber asked quietly.

"Why are you hesitating now?"

"Arturia, I think that you overestimate the potential of love."

"... overestimate? What do you mean?" Saber was confused.

"Whether Guinevere and Lancelot might appear to love each other, but will they still be in the future?"

"Of course!" Saber felt the love of the two had potential.

"I don't think so."

"Why?" Saber was confused.

"The reason why Guinevere falls for Lancelot is because Lancelot is your strongest knight. He is filled with valor and bravery, but once his status as your knight disappears, what is he? A vagabond. A guy with nothing. Moreover, due to their elope, no one dares to hire them since hiring them means they are afraid to offend you even though you don't think so.

"Moreover, Lancelot is the only proficient in the fight. As for the others, can he farm, do business, or do other things? In the worst case, he might become a bandit that causes unrest in your kingdom, and that way, he will be targeted by you and the nobles in your kingdom.

Lastly, who will trust a knight who elopes with the wife of his master?

Who can trust such a man?

"This is Lancelot; then what about Guinevere? As a former Queen who stands above many people, is she going to be satisfied to have a humble life?"

Tamazuki didn't think so since Guinevere was a Queen. Her life was super easy without any problems, and all of her needs were given by Arturia, so in case she was thrown into a hard life, could she bear it?

Well, he didn't deny that there was a miracle where two people could support each other because of love, yet as he had said before, if Lancelot and Guinevere didn't have their status from Arturia, what would they have?

After all, not everyone could be like him, who could get everything so easily.

If Guinevere lost her status, wealth, and everything, could she still love Lancelot?

Moreover, could Lancelot continue to love Guinevere even if he lost everything from his status and everything?

There was no way to answer this question.

Even Lancelot and Guinevere couldn't answer since only time could give them an answer.

Even in primitive civilizations, love needed to be realistic.

"....."

Saber opened her mouth wide as she heard his explanation.

If Guinevere and Lancelot lost everything, could their love be as strong as ever?

Saber didn't know since she didn't have any experience with love, but if she was in such a position, she believed that she could live a humble life with the one that she loved, yet the others were different, especially those nobles in her kingdom.

Lastly, Saber knew Guinevere had a pampered life. Still, she wanted to argue, yet he beat her first, and his words were so outrageous that she couldn't believe it.

"Saber, I know that it might be strange, but I think the Battle of Camlann is a good thing, you know?"

"....."

If possible, Saber wanted to smash Tamazuki's head with the pommel of Excalibur. Unfortunately, she couldn't do it.
