Last Round Arthurs Novel Vol. 05
COUNTDOWN TO MIDNIGHT
Luna and Rintarou return from their quest for the Holy Grail to find the doomsday clock has begun ticking down. It is said that global destruction will befall humanity when King Arthur is resurrected from the age of legends—and that fated moment is drawing ever closer. The other candidates for the throne balk at the task ahead of them, but Luna steps up to participate in a final battle that will transcend time, all to impress a certain vassal who goes by the name Rintarou Magami…
Series Overview: In all honesty, Rintarou’s life is boring as hell. If you ask him, he was born into this world with too much talent. Everything goes too according to plan. His way of having fun? Joining forces with the weakest candidate, Luna Artur, in the upcoming battle to become King Arthur’s successor-and save the world from impending doom.
The only problem? She’s the scummiest of scum, pawning off her sacred sword and forcing her knight, Sir Kay, into some seriously skeevy cosplays! Or so he thinks-until a close encounter with death, when her true power astonishes all. Make way for an unexpected take on the age-old legends of King Arthur!
