The Endless Shuttle

"Jeanne, Nayako..."

Thinking of the two defenseless girls right next to him, Lopez immediately looked around.

Simply, the huge size of the wild boar is very recognizable. About ten meters away from Luo Pei, the injured beast is crouching there, as if protecting something.

Walking in, the blond-haired saint and the silver-haired evil god were just like newborn babies, lying under the wild boar's thick belly, not to mention being injured, not even a little bit of dust.

"Good job. It might be time for me to give you your diploma—graduating from the Beast of Destruction."

Luo Pei looked at the wild boar approvingly, the latter whined a few times, and gently rubbed its fangs against Luo Pei to show its intimacy.

Afterwards, the exhausted divine beast turned into golden light and returned to Rope's incarnation wheel.

Pulling out a piece of clean white cloth from the "White Gospel" to cover the two girls, Luo Pei looked around and estimated the distance, then walked towards the approximate center of the explosion of the treasure.

Whether they all died together, or one side won, he had to confirm it with his own eyes.

If Arjuna wins, he can pretend he didn't see it because of the promise. And if Karna wins, then he won't mind making up for it.

Luo Pei walked unhurriedly, and soon, something that looked like a tiankeng appeared in his sight.

Standing on the edge of the mound, the situation in the pit can be seen at a glance.

There are flames everywhere.

Orange-red, dark blue, surrounded by flames to the north, a black-haired Heroic Spirit in a white robe was lying on the ground, with a rather large hole in his abdomen, and the fluorescence of the Heroic Spirit before he left began to radiate from his whole body.

——Archer Arjuna.

Is it Arjuna who lost...

Lopez scanned the surroundings, looking for Karna.

But no matter how carefully Luo Pei looked, there was no trace of the Son of the Sun, and Karna seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, leaving no trace behind.

"Father……"

The small voice was captured by Luo Pei.

Arjuna's voice.

Luo Pei came to the side of the archer, looking down at the protagonist in "Mahabharata".

Except for the abdominal wound, Arjuna looked much better than Luo Pei imagined, and his handsome and decent appearance was still the same as before.

"Father... Indra God... Can you help me see, is this battle my victory?" He said with difficulty, coughing out a mouthful of blood.

"I'm sorry for letting you see this indecent appearance. I don't even have the strength to move now... Please forgive your son for not being able to salute you."

Rope was silent for a while.

Even though he was not Arjuna's real father, the great hero's respectful attitude at the time of death still made him feel a little admiration.

he said.

"I didn't see Karna's figure, maybe it was wiped out by your treasure."

"...Is that so?"

Arjuna paused, his voice became a little hoarse.

"It seems that it was really just good luck and Krishna's help that allowed me to defeat him, my brother... Is it my failure to bet on honor, the rematch of karma..."

Although his Noble Phantasm "Hand Shadow of the God of Destruction" can cause "divine death" damage, it will not leave Karna with a whole body anyway.

So after Rope finished speaking, Arjuna understood the situation.

Or command spells, or other methods, the great hero of charity avoided the arrow that should have hit.

And he, after trying his best to offset the damage of Indra's spear of light, was still pierced through the spiritual core, and was about to leave the war with defeat.

"This kind of wound, even if your Master knows the healing magic of the "Great Magic" level, it can't be helped. "

This kind of injury can only be healed by the lord of light elements, but let alone looking for works of art in such ruins, you can't even see a single intact utensil. By the time Luo Pei finds it, Arjuna will probably be completely cold. .

Besides, although he admired it, he really didn't need to ask for trouble to save an enemy because his goal was to win the Holy Grail War.

Luo Pei looked at Arjuna and said: "For the sake of your respect and courtesy, I can fulfill one of your last wishes - how about I bury your old enemy Karna with my own hands?"

"Thank you, Father. But no need."

Arjuna shook his head, his eyes were fixed on the sky.

"Warrior holds a weapon, puts his life on the line, and upholds the Dharma to pursue glory. And I have lost this glory once on the battlefield of Kuru Field... This fair duel, even if I lost, I didn't have the slightest complaint."

"I see."

Rope nodded, expressing understanding.

Arjuna once attacked Karna in a sneak attack, which was a lingering nightmare for the great archer who pursued honor in his later years. This battle may also be regarded as the end of that disgraceful karma.

Arjuna suddenly moved.

He grabbed Candiba tremblingly and clasped his hands together desperately.

"Father... If that is my last wish, I would like you to allow me to be selfish. My Master is just a little girl under the age of twenty, and she is just an ordinary person after losing me. But even so, There are still other Masters trying to kill her, and I beg you, O Great Indra, to keep her safe while you can."

"I gave up the loyalty of a warrior in front of you. In the end, I hope that you, my kind father, can help me make up for it. Arjuna is very grateful!"

This is the last wish of the guilty Arjuna.

Luo Pei squatted down and looked seriously into Arjuna's eyes.

"I swear by my name, I will protect your Master from this war."

The oath based on his own name, Luo Pei has never violated it from the very beginning, and it will definitely be fulfilled.

"Thank you, Father..."

Arjuna closed his eyes in relief, with a hint of a smile on his lips.

"Finally, it is a great honor to leave under your watchful eyes..."

The fluorescent light exploded suddenly, turning into stardust all over the sky.

The heroic spirit returned to his throne, and the first servant to leave in this war also engraved his name on the Holy Grail.

——Archer, Arjuna, the son of Indra.
