Magic Deity: Godly Choices-Chapter 506 - Abdication

When he said this, Lancelot was furious.

“Guinevere is your good friend for 30,000 years. You’ve been together since we were young. Do you have the heart to see her end up like this?”

Hearing Lancelot mention Guinevere, Artoria closed her eyes and did not say anything else.

“Is the problem really that big? The King had led us to chase away the invaders before. The people should not be too against it, right?”

A Knight raised his opinion.

“It’s not like you don’t know what the people think. If it were that easy for women, the Knights present wouldn’t all be men,” Lancelot said with a bitter smile.

This wasn’t his nonsense, but the truth.

Ever since the Knights of the Round Table led by King Arthur became famous, more and more people yearned to become a glorious Knight.

Even the women were the same.

But because of the male power, in the end, not a single woman succeeded.

Even in a crisis, there were female knights for a period of time, but after peace, they were disbanded.

The Knights present also knew these things.

So after hearing Lancelot’s words, the Knight also fell silent.

Seeing that the Knight was wavering, Lancelot added more fire.

“And do you know how I know this news?”

Hearing this, the Knights collectively looked over.

They were indeed curious. How did none of them discover it? Only you know?

Artoria opened her eyes again and looked over.

She also wanted to know who leaked the news.

“It was a black-robed man and a Saxon who found me. They were also the ones who told me the news and had concrete evidence.”

Upon hearing the Saxon, the Knights present were in an uproar. They did not expect Lancelot to be in contact with the enemy in private.

Artoria came to a sudden realization. She should have known, but she did not think that he would go to Lancelot instead of convincing her.

“Don’t worry, I swear on my chivalry that I have never betrayed the British Starfield.”

Lancelot had no intention of cooperating with the black-robed man and sold them out.

Hearing Lancelot swear on his chivalry, they believed him.

Because the glory of chivalry was engraved in the hearts of every citizen, no one would joke about it.

He had never betrayed the British Starfield, but could he have betrayed the King?

Artoria understood the meaning of his words.

“So, what do you plan to do?” Artoria spoke at this time.

At this point, all the Knights knew that the matter was true. They stopped discussing and looked at the two people present.

“It’s not that I want to do anything, but if I don’t do anything, once the enemy exposes this matter, along with the rhythm, the entire starfield might fall into chaos.

“If the enemy attacks at this time, we will face a complicated situation.”

When the Knights heard this, their expressions changed, because this was really possible.

Artoria also thought of this, so she did not speak, waiting for Lancelot to continue.

“So, I want to ask King Arthur to abdicate, and then choose a new King among the Knights.”

Lancelot finally revealed his true thoughts.

As soon as he said this, the Knights’ expressions changed.

Other than feelings, the other Knights’ eyes widened.

They did not expect him to ask for a new King.

Artoria looked at Lancelot deeply. So this was his goal.

Thinking of abdicating, she felt a wave of emotion in her heart.

She had been King for 30,000 years, but she did not expect that someone would ask her to abdicate recently.

The former was her teacher, and she knew that her teacher was doing it for her own good.

The latter was a subordinate that she had trusted for many years, but he was doing it for his ambition.

Who did not know that once she abdicated, with his prestige, no one could compete with him.

The throne could be said to be in his pocket.

However, as a King, how could she allow others to go up to her face and provoke her?

Even if she was wrong, she wouldn’t allow the dignity of the King to be insulted.

Even if she wanted to abdicate, she would have to abdicate by herself instead of being forced to abdicate by a former subordinate.

“What if I say that I don’t agree? What are you going to do, Knight Lancelot!”

Looking at Lancelot, Artoria asked another question.

“Of course you have the right to refuse.”

Lancelot smiled, then changed his tone and said loudly, “For the future of the British Starfield, I propose that every Knight can nominate themselves, and then all the Knights vote to choose a new King.”

“As for me, Knight Lancelot, I have fought countless battles in the past 30,000 years, suffered countless injuries, and also received countless honors. So I think I can also be the next King.”

After saying that, the hall fell silent.

After a long while, no one made a sound.

Suddenly, a Knight stood up and said angrily, “Don’t talk about righteousness. You are doing this for your own ambition. Everyone in the entire galaxy knows about the achievements of the King. Without the King’s appreciation for you, there will be no glory for you in the future.”

“You are a traitor. Everyone must punish you.”

Lancelot glanced at him and knew that he was loyal to King Arthur. He did not speak to him and directly started voting.

Because no one else stood out, the people who voted were King Arthur and Lancelot.

Artoria looked at everything in front of her and did not stop him.

Because it was useless to stop him. The seed was already buried in the heart of the Knights.

In addition, she really wanted to know how many people would support her under such circumstances.

The results of the voting came out very quickly.

Other than Lancelot, who could not vote as a candidate, there were a total of 99 votes.

There were four abstentions. Those who supported King Arthur had 35 votes, while those who supported Lancelot had 60 votes.

Seeing this situation, Artoria’s expression did not change, but her heart was filled with bitterness.

It had changed!

Everything had changed!

The Round Table Parliament that she had set up now only had 35 votes supporting her, only one-third of them.

Although she knew that the people who voted for Lancelot were definitely coerced, there was no lack of people who were tempted by money and power.

Thinking of this, Artoria’s heart was filled with sorrow.

Seeing that the voting result was not too surprising, Lancelot smiled in satisfaction.

“Now that the result is out, 60:35, I have more votes than Artoria Pendragon. So, you should abdicate. It’s time for you to have a good rest, Artoria!”

Lancelot was very arrogant now. He did not even address her as King anymore. Instead, he called her by her name.

Seeing this scene, all the Knights looked at Artoria. They all wanted to know what she would do.

Would she agree with Lancelot and abdicate?

Or would she fight back and prove herself as King?
