It is time for the debut of this certain character and this character was talked about in the recent chapters, so with that let's BEGIN!
Jaune and Caliburn had a discussion after their little battle with Lancelot.
"Wow so he actually was one of the Knights Of The Round-table." Jaune said
"The mightiest of all and the closest to King Arthur. It was mere luck that enabled you to defeat him." Caliburn said.
"Well if you say so."
"But why did you not deal him the final blow?"
Jaune did not have Lancelot the final blow because it will make it feel like he just killed Ren even though it is not the same person.
"For...Reasons"
"Such sympathy is an insult to a knight."
"Well even so, I at least got this."
Jaune held out the sword he grabbed from Lancelot.
"That is Arondight, one of the sacred swords of this land. Take good care of it."
"I will."
Jaune kept walking until he saw a clear view of the lake. In this area of the woods there is a road indicating that Jaune could have taken a different direction in the woods and got on this path. There is also a wooden bridge with the fences having blue glowing orbs. That bridge leads to a tiny peace of land on the lake and on that land was a Stone area that had a stone table and couch.
"We're here."
Jaune and Caliburn saw someone walking on the bridge and walking towards them.
'That has to be the Lady.' Jaune said in his thoughts.
Jaune looked closely and she looked veeeery familiar. If the long black hair, cat ears and ember eyes have didn't have it away.
The lady spoke up.
"I've have been waiting for you, knight from another world."
"Blake!?"
Just like the other people he seen, Nimue was basically an exact clone of Blake. Only difference is that Nimue has an elegant dress with the color scheme being lavender and dark purple.
"Fool! Why call her a different name?" Caliburn said.
"But she lo-"
"You are being rude to the Lady of the Lake! Bow your head!
Jaune didn't have anything to say so he did as told and bowed.
"Please rise." Nimue said as Jaune did as told. "I think I know why your here. It's about Excalibur, isn't it?"
"Yes, that is why we are here."
"Very well then, please follow me."
Nimue lead Jaune and Caliburn to the Stone area and have them sit down.
"I'll tell you how to hinder the scabbard's power of immortality. I'm the one who gave it to him, so it's kind of my fault, see?"
Jaune said.
"But still..."
"Still?"
"Whoever defeats King Arthur and takes his scabbard might end up turning out the same way, right?"
"I see" Caliburn said.
"That is why Brave Knight, I have three task for you." Nimue said holding up three fingers. " Would you like to hear them?"
"Yes, please."
Nimue only nodded.
"First, Free the innocents from King Arthurs Dungeon. Second, offer compassion to those in need. Third, defeat King Arthurs Knights of the underworld."
Nimue stood up and so did Jaune as they exited the Stone area.
"You have three days, tommorow begins the first day. Good Luck and please, be safe."
Suddenly in a blink of an eye she was gone.
"Three days..."
Caliburn spoke up.
"Are you up to the task? This will not be easy."
"I am. I know that this will definitely be a challenge but I want to do it."
"Very well. We'll start immediately once you get up but for now get some rest."
"Right, we're going back to the village where Scarlet is, hope I make it quick since it is now night time and scarlet didn't specify how long the gates will remain open at night."
"Very well."
So with that Jaune began walking back to the Village and hopefully meet up with Scarlet again. Jaune went back to the area where he fought Lancelot and thankfully he is now gone, so he continued walking until he saw the wooden gate. Jaune did a little jog to get there and he got in the village just in time as the gates were now closed.
"Just in time."
So since Jaune is sleeping in this village here he should look for scarlet.
"Hey Jaune!"
Speaking of Scarlet.
Jaune saw that Scarlet was with two young boys with rabbit ears as well and Jaune bet those two are her siblings. Their hair reached their foreheads and They both have brown shirts and loose black pants.
"Hey Scarlet!"
Jaune walked towards them and the Two boys got in front of Scarlet and had their hands out.
"Um?"
"Halt! We shall not let any guy come near our big sister!" Twin one said.
"Indeed if you want Scarlet you'll have to go through us!" Twin two said.
Scarlet then bonked the twins heads.
"OW!"
"Bodabon! William! Please! You always do this when a guy talks to me!" Scarlet said scolding her little brothers while also having a blush on her face.
"But we do that for your safety! Especially this guy! He is a knight and human!" Bodabon said.
"He's the guy that gave Me the currency for us and the village."
William spoke up.
"What! Him!? He was the one that gave us the currency?"
Jaune was just standing there, Not sure what to say. Scarlet then spoke to Jaune.
"So Jaune, are you starving?"
"Yeah I am."
"The come over to our tent we have dinner ready."
The five of them then went to the tent and once they arrived dinner was served and they ate roasted chicken. Jaune and Scarlet sat next to each other while the twins sat next to each other.
"Wow this is good. You're a great cook Scarlet." Jaune said
Once he said that they both turned their head and their faces got a bit too close. Scarlet turns her head back and looked up at the sky.
"Oh! Uh thank you! I practice a lot. Since my parents are gone, someone had to cook."
Jaune nodded. Suddenly Jaune remembered what one of the Tasks the Lady of the Lake gave him.
Maybe?
"Scarlet. Thank you for the help. I will have to repay you tommorow."
"oh, no please I don't need any repayment."
"Nah, I'm gonna repay you with something big."
"Halt!"
William stood up and pointed at Jaune.
"There is no way that me and Bodabon will let you get our big sister in bed! Not when we're here!"
"That's not the big I meant!" Jaune yelled out the twins as Scarlet covered her blushing face with her hands.
"In the tent!" Scarlet yelled out to her brothers.
"BUT!"
"NOW!"
The brothers knew not to mess with Scarlet when she is pissed at they obeyed and entered the Tent, leaving Jaune and Scarlet alone outside.
"Sorry about that Jaune. They get so over protective of me even though it should be the other way around."
"Its fine. I understand where your coming from."
Jaune then stood up.
"Well I guess I should find a tent."
"Well you don't have to do that. I got a tent assigned to you for a day."
"Really? Thank you!"
Jaune followed Scarlet to the assigned tent and the tent is smaller than Scarlet and her brothers but it will definitely do.
"Once again thank you, Scarlet."
"Your Welcome. Before you go can you stay for a bit for breakfast?"
"Yes, I will."
Jaune nodded as Scarlet walked away and went to her tent. Jaune entered his assigned tent and layed down removing his Gauntlets, scabbard, Caliburn himslef and boots. He then began to drift to sleep.
Yeah, tommorow he is going to repay Scarlet.
*To Be Continued*
So we finally meet the Lady Of The Lake!
Who guessed it was Blake?
