[You have actually noticed this a long time ago. ]
[Because along the way, you found that Artorius's eyes were always on it. ]
[By bringing this up now, it actually seems like he has been quite restrained.]
[This time, you didn't ask any more questions, but answered directly. ]
"Okay, if you want to go, then go ahead."
Ian took what Artorius was holding in his arms.
"Let's go."
"good!"
[Your prestige in the city is already very high. ]
[So even if I bring one person up to the city wall, it won't be a big problem. ]
[Artorius is very happy.]
[He kept running in front of you all the way, and the two of you came to the city wall one after the other.]
"So… is this what it feels like to stand on top of this?"
Standing on the city wall, Artorius exclaimed at the scene in front of him.
"You seem to like this feeling?"
Ian walked up to him and asked.
"That's right, Mr. Ian." Artorius nodded hurriedly, "When I was outside the city, I was thinking about whether there was a way to get up here!"
"Now it's finally happening."
"Thank you, Mr. Ian."
"Thank you, that's all."
Like Artorius, Ian looked ahead at the place illuminated by the British sun.
What caught his eyes was the lush land near the royal capital and the continuous, green forests that formed a large area.
"I'd rather know why you want to come up here so badly."
"Because this is the place where you can have a bird's eye view of the whole of Britain, right?!" Artorius showed a liveliness that was completely different from before.
"This is my ideal place with the broadest view!"
Actually, it's not.
No matter how big and high the capital is, it is impossible to have a bird's eye view of the whole of Britain.
After all, if that were the case, it would be impossible to cover up the defeat on the front line.
but--
These words made Ian stare at Artorius in front of him.
He felt that the young man in front of him seemed to be carrying some unspeakable responsibility.
"By the way, Artorius, you said you had a brother?"
"Yes." Artorius turned around and nodded.
"I do have a brother."
"Then..." Ian gave a hypocritical smile, "Why are you the one selling the apples instead of your brother?"
"Because my father wanted to train me."
Artorius answered without hesitation.
"It was a great experience to walk here with a wooden cart full of apples like this, and I learned a lot along the way."
"You mean hungry?"
"This is an accident." Artorius scratched his face in embarrassment, "I didn't expect to meet so many hungry people along the way."
"I absolutely cannot give them the apples, so I can only share my rations with them."
Ian was about to ask what was happening to the hungry people, but he understood everything in the split second before the sound happened.
As Vortigern had said, the land of Britain was undergoing great changes as the Age of Gods receded.
The output of the land is constantly decreasing.
In addition, the front line where the two armies are confronting each other also requires a large amount of supplies, which makes the already less than ideal output even worse.
Now even the richest royal capital has been affected.
This is what Artorius saw along the way.
"..." Ian smiled awkwardly.
"Artorius, you are such a kind person."
"Really..." Artorius curled his lips, "Rather than being praised for my kindness, I would rather know how to solve this problem."
"Hunger is everyone's eternal enemy, right?"
"Hmm... probably."
[Feeling that you seemed reluctant to talk about this, Artorius changed the subject.]
[He asks if you can go a little further.]
He hopes he can see more broadly this way.
[Because of what you said just now, you didn't reject him. ]
[Artorius is even happier after getting your permission.]
[He leaned against the twin peaks of the city wall and looked out at the scenery in the distance.]
[You looked at his back and suddenly had a terrible idea. ]
Although Artorius is consistent with Ian's understanding in every sense.
After all, he still might have seen something he shouldn't have.
Although this possibility is rapidly decreasing during this period of time.
But for the best safety reasons, Ian knew he should kill Artorius.
He couldn't allow any dangerous cracks to appear in Morgan's future.
And now, there is a great opportunity in front of him.
It is not a battle moment now, so there are no other soldiers stationed on the city wall, only Ian and Artorius are here.
And Artorius clearly had no defenses against Ian—he even stood on tiptoe in front of him.
If I push him off the city wall at this time, it is basically impossible for me to be considered as the one who actually did it.
The reason is simple:
He and Artorius had no apparent grudges against each other, and the two had previously spent so much time wandering around the city on a fairly intimate terms.
How could he push him down when he was brought to the city wall knowing that he was alone?
Plus, Morgan will definitely protect himself.
Even if his brother and father came to him later, he could still use the excuse that he had made a mistake.
This would be much easier to deal with than letting him die on some trail.
It can be said that this is a foolproof method.
But--
Ian looked at Artorius's excited back, but felt that his hands were unable to pull the sword out of the scabbard.
He knew that killing Artorius was the safest and most foolproof method for Morgan.
[You hesitated, which was unusual for you.]
[Although only a few seconds have passed, you feel like you have spent centuries. ]
You feel your confidence wavering.
[You realize that this is not okay and is disloyal to Morgan.]
[You wake up and are ready to take action. ]
[But what you didn't expect was that something unexpected also happened at this time. ]
[The two bricks that Artorius used to support his body loosened slightly, and then they broke into pieces.]
[You realize that the city wall has fallen into disrepair and something has happened.]
[Artorius really fell from the city wall as you wished, and it was a perfect accident. ]
[You now have two choices: rush over to save Artorius immediately, or stand aside and wait for the result you want. ]
