The world of Camelot was a world filled with wars and kingdoms, where dragons and other magical beasts threatened the kingdoms. However, the major reason behind the constant death of humanity was not monsters but the humans themselves. Humanity had been at war for thousands of years between each kingdom, fighting for territories, resources, and more. Nobles grow corrupt and make their own nations become poorer as they harbor all riches, people rise against Nobles, only for them to build their own nation and repeat the same process. Other kingdoms are filled with greedy warmongers, constantly waging wars and attempting to take over anything they can with sheer manpower.
Amidst such a world of constant wars, a mysterious boy was born, a boy destined to be the King of Heroes, Arthur Pendragon. Born in a small village, since he had memory of himself being a mere toddler that he was more intelligent than others. He gained common sense in less than a year of being born, learned how to speak at the age of 1, and at the age of 2 he was already swinging a small wooden sword, at the age of 3 he took a big iron sword and started swinging it like nothing, and at the age of 5, he used a long sword.
It was strange, but since he was born that he was indeed different, not only was he the illegitimate son of the King of the Kingdom of Pendragon, but aside from a noble's talents, he held more than just that. He had a knowledge from a past life which he fervently wanted to remember but no matter how much, he couldn't recall it! He tried the most he could to recall this memory, but he could only recall knowledge about magic and swords, and he used it to grow incredibly strong. Building an army of knights, fighting the enemy kingdoms, the great empire, and even dragons, monsters, and the world of Camelot's demon king.
Due to his amazing talent with the sword and incredible power over light magic, the sword Excalibur ended choosing him, and he led everyone with the light of this sword, being the sign of a god-chosen King. With power, might, magic, and intellect, he managed to unify the many kingdoms and brought peace to the lands of Camelot.
However, for the holy king, it was not enough. He continued seeking power and knowledge, as his ego had grown as big as his position in the world, he couldn't fathom the idea of being unable to recall his previous life!
Through his travels, he managed to meet strange ruins, and after suddenly absorbing a large quantity of magic power from a cosmic stone he once found deep within some abandoned ruins, his powers awakened further, giving him god-like abilities. quickly after that, he began to hear the whispers of others like him from other worlds, calling themselves his "other parts" or "fragments", they all knew they were related with one another and sought to meet and fuse together to recreate their true self.
Until finally, after some time, the Emperor summoned him. Arthur of course, as egocentric and selfish as he was as a king that had done so much and was so talented, rejected fusing over the others and wanted them to fuse on his glorious self.
And now he was captured without even struggling, he was one of those that had not moved ever since he got inside the room, simply looking around while resting his hands over the handle of his blade.
"I just wanted to acquire my past life knowledge, not become some sort of world-destroying villaina�|" Sighed Arthur. "In what have I even gotten myself into? Ah, Merlin is going to reprimand me when I am back homea�|" The King sighed, as he looked at Frank's figure emerge before him.
"Youngling, have you come fight me?" He asked, as he quickly looked back at Frank with his bright silver eyes, shining brightly with even some shine of gold light.
"King Arthura�| Are you truly willing to fight and do as they please? The Emperor is someone that planned to destroy all of this world's humanity to open the gates, and the other guys are no better. Since the moment I saw you that you were not like them." Said Frank.
"Hmph, you got good eyes." Said Arthur. "Indeed, unlike those villainous figures, I am a man of justice, a King. I do not condone vile acts. I might be part of whatever we once were, but I am definitely not the same in terms of personality or nature. Buta�| my curiosity got the better of me and I ended stepping herea�| Hahahaa�| hahha�|" Arthur sighed at the end, he seemed rather uncomfortable, and was already regretting having come here.
"Join me, let's defeat the Emperor together. After that, you can go back to your world." Said Frank.
"Oh? Offering something to this King? You're bold and heroic, I suppose." Said Arthur while smiling rather charmingly. "You got a good sword, armor, and your looks are those of a hero, like the knights of my table. You got the potential to be a loyal knight as well, have you thought about joining my kingdom?"
"A-Ahaha, no, I got my own stuff to take care of." Said Frank.
"Hmph, such a pitya�|" Sighed Arthur, as he quickly took off his sword from the floor and put into a stance. Frank quickly received his stance with his own.
"You're a good fighter, aren't you? I want you to show me how strong you are. I won't simply go obeying a stranger, you have to show me what you're made of." Said Arthur. "If you prove your worth to this King, I might consider a temporary alliance."
Frank smiled defiantly, knowing exactly that Arthur would ask for a fight before choosing to help him or not! But he could already tell with his powers that were able to see into a person's true hearta�| that Arthur was a True King of Humanity, a man that wouldn't bend to his other selves from other worlds.
