Chapter 71: Vena: Why Not While It's Hot...
In the chalk-white city, in the Shrine of Light, Morgan, who had not been seen for a long time, had returned here again. But today, she was not wearing the magic robe she usually wore, but had changed into a very simple and elegant light blue dress—this made her appearance look much softer, and also added a bit of freshness and natural aura.
"Did she take out her childhood clothes to wear?"
"She's almost a 40-year-old woman, how can she still be acting cute?"
Vena looked at Morgan in this outfit and couldn't help but laugh at this "lifelong Red Dragon Princess."
Morgan ignored her and continued to walk deeper into the temple. She walked to the very inside of the temple and saw the white dragon statue carved from white marble. She knelt down piously, her hands clasped together, as if she were praying for something.
"What is this?"
Vena, standing outside the door, looked at the woman who was kneeling before the statue, then turned her head and looked at Shiroryu, who was building a garden, her face showing a puzzled expression.
—The real god is right here. Why is she praying to that fake statue?
"What's wrong with her?"
Vena couldn't help but run to his side and ask about Morgan's situation—could it be that after taking care of a brat for a few days, she finally couldn't hold back her irritable temper and had gone crazy?
He also saw her abnormal behavior. But unlike Vena, he understood her current mood very well. "She is praying to the gods, praying for what is to come."
"Praying to the gods? Why doesn't she just come and pray to you?"
"Me? I'm not a god. That statue is, in her heart, the true god."
It is difficult for people to believe in something that really exists. Because something that really exists will inevitably have flaws, and the thing that people believe in must be perfect and without any flaws.
—That is just a concept.
People then continuously draw strength from this perfect concept, pushing their already-weak bodies to continue forward.
"Let's begin."
About ten minutes later, Morgan walked out from inside the temple. In her hand, she was holding a golden dagger, which emitted a very dazzling, but also very cold light under the reflection of the sun.
[Erosion Gold].
A Noble Phantasm that could separate a person's soul, spirit, and body. It was a magic Mystic Code given to Morgan by the Ladies of the Lake.
—It could also be said to be a tool for holding a "ritual."
"Aren't you going to wait any longer?"
He took this golden dagger from her hand, but did not immediately perform this ritual. "Although it seems to be nearing the end... there is still some time. You can do some other things, for example, say a proper goodbye to your children."
He said with a smile. He could clearly see that in that instant just now, Morgan's face had suddenly turned pale—and then she had taken several deep breaths of fresh air, which had only then slightly calmed her mood.
"Forget it, I get angry just looking at them. Besides, I'm just going to the reverse side of the world. It's not like I'm dying and having them attend my funeral."
Morgan raised her head, pretending to be indifferent.
—She actually cared a lot.
Because for the one named [Morgan le Fay], the princess of Camelot, this ritual was really her funeral. She stood at the entrance of the temple and took one last look at this kingdom. From then on, the rise and fall of this kingdom had nothing to do with her anymore.
...
Morgan had made up her mind. He also opened the door to the reverse side of the world. On the other side of the world, under the leadership of Vivian and Morrigan, the two Ladies of the Lake, many fairies were already eagerly waiting, preparing to welcome the arrival of this most noble princess.
"Will... will it hurt a lot?"
Looking at the dagger in his hand that was shining with a cold light, Morgan hadn't said anything yet, but Vena on the side spoke first. She really couldn't imagine the scene of this dagger piercing that snow-white skin, and blood gushing out—that would be too cruel, right?
"Puchi—"
The answer to her question was the dagger that had directly entered Morgan's body without drawing any blood....
The ritual began. Morgan's spirit and soul flew out from this frail human body. It seemed to have transformed into a graceful red dragon, and after circling in the sky a few times, it flew towards the reverse side of the world.
The ritual was over.
The red dragon that had fallen into Avalon once again transformed into a human form. The Lady of the Lake, who symbolized [Evil], took out a beautiful haori and draped it over her. The Lady of the Lake, who symbolized [Good], on the other hand, took out a small and exquisite white crown and crowned her.
"Th-that's it?"
"Then... what about this body?"
Vena was a little shocked as she held her body—she was still breathing, which showed that she was still alive. But her spirit and soul had already left this body and would never come back.
"Why don't we..."
A rather bold idea suddenly came to Vena's mind. But before she could say this idea out loud, the originally cloudless sky suddenly became cloudy and a strong wind howled.
...
The sky had changed. The sky above the entire Isle of Britain had changed.
With Morgan's coronation, the mystery belonging to the Red Dragon King had finally returned to this island.
"Roar—"
He could no longer maintain his human form. He was now the complete form of the Dragon of Britain—the mystery of the Red Dragon King and the White Dragon King were all on his wings, covering the sky and the sun, enveloping the entire island.
And at the same time, Vena, and the body that Morgan had left in the present world, also turned into two white streams of light and flew behind the white dragon.
A third wing, a fourth wing.
The god who had already fallen into a Beast spread its second pair of wings and forcefully lifted the chalk-white city under its feet, flying towards the sky.
"The light of the end, the god of salvation. One of the seven Evils of Humanity, Beast, has awakened. The Beast who holds the [Principle] of [Sublimity], even if it defies the mandate of heaven, will also use its own wings to hold up this false ideal kingdom. O, King... can you really defeat such an enemy?"
