Before we start, there is a few thing you need to know.

The event of Fate is really confusing and the order so this chap won't follow the timeframe of Fate, their will be multiple event mixed so i can easily manipulate the plot.

Life is precious and duty is meant to be done...this is what Artoria Pendragon, the lone and unique child of Uther Pendragon, king of Brittany.

Being born as a woman, she couldn't access the throne as Uther's successor...because of this, her life was rather difficult and from childhood she grew up with Merlin, a man who gladly took the girl under his wing.

He didn't care much about her gender as he was convinced that she was the one who will become the new ruler of Britain and save them.

After some time, Merlin put Artoria under Sir Hector's care, so she could train and become stronger...this is also where she met the man who stood at her side until the very end.

Born from an assassinated family, Rimuru grew up an orphan...even so he was happy living in the orphanage until...the dark age of Britain started...forced to independence, Britain was put at its darkest time.

And thus led to many consequences on the inhabitants...the orphanage had to close and worst, to make money, the owner sold the children for more manpower...

But things didn't turn out like the owner wanted...when they were about to touch the children...one stood in front of them ready to give his life for the other.

Coincidentally, at the same time king Uther was in the area for his own reason...he wasn't aware that in this random place filled with rats and misery would be where he found a gem made of pure diamond.

Uther Pov

I groaned as my eyes went through all this misery...where did I fail to reach this point of sadness and horror?

I sighed and turned my back on this cruel scene...but then a loud scream echoed through the area...

Guard : My lord !

Uther : Let's go, we can't tolerate more misery than there already is !

Quickly making our way to the source of this scream, we arrived at a dirty place that fell in ruin...but what stood out the most was a child...his blue hair shone as he stood in front of a bunch of childrens...

He looked to be around 10 years old...which is just 3 more than my daughter but what attracted my attention was his posture...

On the ground were 5 men who seemed to be bandits or some kind of slave merchant...I see, so these guys tried to use these poor childrens but one was able to push them off.

Guard : Oy yo-

Uther : Don't !

Quickly stopping my guard to intervene, I was curious about this blue haired boy...he didn't seem to have any fighting experience, so how did he push a grown adult back ?

And I did good as the next few seconds were incredible. The boy showed some kind of genius ability for martial arts and fighting.

He was able to knock off 4 of them despite having no form or raw strength in his movement...a natural talent.

But before he could take on the last bandit, he collapsed, I guess for a child body this is too much.

Smirking, I took out my sword and took down the last bandit as he was about to hit the child.
