"Who are you?" Morgan asked, her brow furrowed as she examined Roy and the others. She didn't recognize them.

In Britain, she should know every person who has such power.

"Morgan le Fay, your schemes have been exposed. Surrender," Roy declared, his eyes gleaming with amusement as he looked at the alluring woman.

He suddenly remembered. Wasn't Gawain, the knight they had met at the castle gate, Morgan's son?

Gawain was almost as old as him.

Yet, Morgan, a mother of several children, still looked so young and beautiful.

Roy was quite interested in this "Milf."

"You were sent by King Arthur?" Morgan asked, having already guessed their identity.

Arthur had just returned, and now these people showed up. It couldn't be a coincidence.

It seemed her sister had discovered her treachery.

"You could say that. Now, come with us," Roy said with a nod, then snapped his fingers.

Morgan stood up and walked towards him involuntarily.

"What did you do?" she asked, surprised.

As a sorceress, she was quite skilled in magic.

But she hadn't even noticed how he had taken control of her.

"You don't need to know. Just come with us to see Artoria," Roy replied with a smirk, gently lifting her chin with his finger.

He then opened a portal, and they vanished.

...

In Artoria's throne room...

"Artoria, I brought your sister," Roy announced, taking a seat on Artoria's throne and looking at the two sisters with amusement.

"Sister, why did you do this?" Artoria asked, her expression filled with sadness and confusion.

She had always respected Morgan, but she couldn't believe her sister would betray her like this.

Morgan's actions had indirectly led to the destruction of Britain.

Morgan remained silent.

No one knew whether she truly hated Artoria or loved her in a twisted way.

"It's simple. Your sister also wanted to be king, but you took the throne from her. So, she wanted revenge," Roy explained.

The girls finally understood.

Struggles for the throne were common throughout history.

They sympathized with Artoria for being betrayed by her own sister.

Exposed, Morgan had nothing to say.

Artoria, heartbroken by the truth, turned to Roy.

"Roy, what should we do now?" she asked, having decided to leave the decision to him.

"It's simple. Your sister, Morgan, wants to be king, right? Then let her have the throne," Roy replied casually.

"But..." Artoria hesitated.

"What? Are you reluctant to give up the throne? You said you weren't suited to be king. And besides, aren't you coming with me?" Roy asked, his words hitting Artoria's insecurities.

Indeed, what was she still clinging to? She had already achieved her goal of saving Britain.

...

Perhaps her sister would be a better ruler.

And she had already promised Roy that she would become his queen.

Artoria nodded.

"I agree." She turned to Morgan. "Perhaps I'm really not fit to be king. Sister, I hope you can lead Britain to prosperity."

Morgan, finally getting the throne she had always desired, wasn't as excited as she thought she would be. Instead, she felt a pang of sadness.

"Are you... leaving?" she asked after a long silence.

"Yes, because I'm Roy's queen now," Artoria replied with a smile, glancing at Roy.

She felt relieved after giving up the throne.

Morgan had never seen Artoria with such an expression before.

"Alright, since you've made up your mind, Artoria, let's prepare for the coronation ceremony," Roy declared.

"Okay."

Artoria summoned Gawain and instructed him to gather the Knights of the Round Table and the ministers.

...

Meanwhile, Roy was working on his part of the plan.

Now that the internal conflict was resolved, it was time to deal with the external threats.

Britain was an island nation located outside the Roman Empire, separated by the sea. It had been under Rome's protection.

But the Roman Empire was crumbling under the invasion of barbarians.

To fight the barbarians, Rome had withdrawn its forces from Britain.

Without Rome's protection, Britain quickly fragmented into smaller kingdoms.

Artoria's kingdom was one of them, but through her efforts, she had managed to reunite most of Britain.

However, there were still some rebellious factions outside her control...

"It's just a small island nation. Why fight over such a tiny piece of land?" Roy wondered, feeling a bit bored.

"Are you really going to give me the throne?" Morgan suddenly asked.

"Of course. Why? Don't you want it?" Roy replied casually, sitting on the throne and looking at her with amusement.

"Where are you taking Artoria?"

"To my world, of course."

Morgan could sense that Roy's world was extraordinary, but it didn't concern her.

...

Soon, Artoria had gathered the Knights of the Round Table.

When she announced that she was abdicating the throne in favor of Morgan, the knights were stunned.

"I object!" Gawain was the first to speak up.

Morgan scowled.

Gawain was her son, planted among the Knights of the Round Table as a spy.

But he had been completely won over by Artoria's charisma and had failed to follow her orders.

And now, he was the first to oppose her ascension to the throne.

Morgan was furious.

She still desired to be queen.

"Silence! My decision is final," Artoria declared, her voice filled with authority.

The knights were helpless.

...

The coronation ceremony would take several days to prepare.

And Roy was also preparing his magic.

He was going to create a massive magic circle that would envelop the entire island of Britain.

The effect of the magic circle was to prevent anyone within its boundaries from harboring any thoughts of rebellion or war.

In other words, all the citizens of Britain would be united and peaceful.

Of course, if the ruler was a tyrant, the citizens would suffer.

Because the king would have absolute power, and no one could resist.

Under this magic circle, Britain would experience unprecedented peace.

But it might also lead to some unhealthy societal developments. However, that wasn't Roy's concern.

With his Magic Authority, he quickly set up the magic circle.

The remaining rebel factions in Britain surrendered without a fight.

Within a few days, peace and tranquility returned to Britain.

Even those from outside Britain, upon entering the island, would lose any desire for conflict.

This completely eliminated any threat of invasion.

Artoria, seeing that Britain was finally at peace, abdicated the throne to Morgan.

But Morgan, having witnessed Roy's God-like powers, had lost interest in the throne.

As the new queen, she held absolute power over Britain.

But she felt empty, especially knowing that Artoria and Roy would soon leave.

...

In Morgan's Chambers.

Roy had been invited by Morgan. They were about to return to the world of High School DxD. What did Morgan want from him?

He entered the room and saw Morgan sitting on her throne, looking regal and elegant in a beautiful gown.

But upon seeing Roy, she abandoned her queenly demeanor and rushed towards him.

"Roy-sama, I've been waiting for you," she said with a smile, taking his hand.

Roy was surprised. What was she doing?

"Please follow me."

Morgan led him to the throne and had him sit on it.

Roy didn't care about the throne. He sat down casually.

"You went through all this trouble to invite me here just to have me sit on your throne?" he asked, leaning back with his legs crossed.

Morgan stood before him respectfully.

"No, Roy-sama. I know you don't care about the things of mortals."

"Hmm?"

"I invited you here because I want to follow you," Morgan declared, kneeling before him and performing a knightly salute.

Rather than being a useless king of Britain, it would be better to follow Roy and perhaps achieve something greater.

"Oh?" Roy was surprised by Morgan's choice.

"Didn't you always want to be the ruler of Britain? Why would you want to follow me after just becoming the king?"

"How can the throne of Britain compare to following you? I believe even being your follower would be more rewarding than being a king," Morgan replied with a confident smile.

She was certain she had made the right decision.

Roy smiled. He hadn't expected Morgan to be so decisive and pragmatic.

Morgan, seeing his smile, felt relieved. But it wasn't enough. She needed to offer more...

She slowly unbuttoned her dress.

She had noticed Roy's interest in her when they first met.

This was her final gambit.

Roy smirked. This woman was full of surprises.

He pulled her close and, right there on the throne, embraced her passionately.
