"Test me," She said as she met Klea's inquisitive gaze. "I will prove to you that the sword belongs here on Camelot." The Britannia Queen Gwenneth Lioness had been quiet since she won the Knight of the Round Table Tournament. It was only now, when she saw the kingdom was at risk of losing its national treasure, did she finally decide to step up. Under the gazes of everyone who awoke from their trance thanks to her voice, Gwen walked up to Arthur and gently placed her hand on his shoulders saying, "Do not falter. You are just too occupied ruling the kingdom... just a little out of practice. Let me give it a try." Arthur gladly handed the Excalibur to Gwen. He then said "Be careful" before he walked over to rest with the rest of the knights. Gwen calmly looked at everyone who was present before fixing her gaze on Klea. "Wherever this sword comes from... Briton or not... There must be a reason, a purpose why it is here.." Looking into her eyes, she continued, "Emery believes so... but if you really need us to prove it with strength, I will give it a try." Klea didn't say anything and just looked at her with an amused look. With one sentence, Gwen had managed to diminish the impact of her argument. Nevertheless, she didn't mind at all. She promptly took a step back and prepared to cast her spell. Seeing Klea looking at her with a smile, Gwen nodded and said, "Let's start." Everyone was surprised to see the Queen being serious with her words. They don't even know she could hold the legendary sword, she was after all not a knight. Arthur thought the same, and he was hoping for a miracle. And a miracle did he receive. Moments after Gwen held the Excalibur, it began to emit a brilliant light, shining no less brightly than when it was held by him. While Fjolrin and company were surprised to see the sight, Klea was surprised by something else. As she observed her, she found that Gwenn received the enchantment from the sword right away and occurred more rapidly than Arthur's. Knowing that she was more than worthy to undergo the test, without hesitation, Klea promptly cast her spell and summoned the water summons as before. The Sword of Divine on one side, shield on the other, the Britannia Queen clad in silver armor fought her way through the first 25 summons without much trouble or hindrance. But then, to everyone's surprise, she decided to throw away her shield when the Tier 2 water summons started appearing. In the absence of the shield, Gwen had less weight to carry, which means an increase in her speed. Making the most of her much smaller and and more flexible frame, she utilized her superior mobility and focused on dodging attacks and delivering counterattacks skillfully. As she continued to defeat the water summons, both the group of Golden Knights and the guests from the east were impressed by her skills. "37... 38..." Klea watched with expectations high, while Arthur and the knights watched with bated breath as Gwen arrived at the crucial stretch of the test. Just like Brandt and Arthur previously, she was overwhelmed with ten enhanced summons with no way out. Hence everyone was confused when they saw that, instead of trying to break through, she ran to the center of the circle and pierced the Excalibur into the ground. Seeing such an opportunity, all ten water golems immediately rushed towards her at the same time with vigor. At this moment, people were hoping that Klea would stop her spell as the Queen's life was in danger. However, contrary to their expectations, Klea didn't as she could sense power flowing rapidly from the sword into the Britannia Queen. Answering her guess, Gwen let go her grasp on the sword's hilt and with her two arms raised before her chest, she cast a Tier 3 water spell. [Crushing Wave] Tall waves of water appeared around her before rushing forward. All the water golems that were coming her way were instantly decimated, leaving the circle empty as they all turned into pools of water. Everyone, especially Brandt and Arthur, were utterly astonished to see Gwen manage to overcome the opponents they had a difficult time against with such ease. Gwen, on the other hand, had a dazed look on her face. [Crushing Wave] was the water spell Emery had left behind for her to learn, however, she had never been able to cast it perfectly; not until now, and most likely not without the Excalibur's power. In the meantime, Klea showed an amused expression at such a sight. Not only had she just managed to cast such a spell, Gwen had also just broken through to Rank 6. Such a feat was nothing short of extraordinary, knowing she only had D rank aptitude. After regaining her bearings, Gwen turned to look at Klea and said, "I presume the sword stays here in Camelot." Klea turned to Fjolnir and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, Elder... I'm convinced" The Vanaheimer King accepted the results without making any complaints, even though it could be considered cheating for Gwen to use a water spell against water summons. Still, like Klea said, he himself was also convinced that it was a part of Fate that the sword would remain in Britannia. Nodding her head, Klea said casually, "Alright, it's settled then." Klea gestured to Fjolnir to follow her, as she wanted to have a private conversation with him. Meanwhile, the Britannia group seemed to have no intention of leaving, still in awe of what their queen had just done. With what he had witnessed, Arthur walked over to Gwen and said, "You have convinced me as well." Unbeknownst to the others, what he was convinced of was not the fact the sword belonged to Camelot, but something else entirely. Later that night after the tournament ended, the award ceremony was finally held. The highlight of the event was of course the ten people who made it into the top 10 of the tournament, knighted with their new title of Silver Knight. At the end of the oath they read aloud, Arthur in his capacity as the Britannia King called out the champion's name confidently. "Gwenneth Lioness, the Britannia Queen and our Knight of the Round Table." Arthur not only granted her wish to become a female knight, he even nominated her to the empty seat of the 12 Golden Knights of the Round Table. Although there was slight doubt in some of them, after seeing what she was capable of, no one questioned her qualifications as a knight.
