The Four Knights Still Want to Save Lancelot
Chapter 252 begins with the group discussing Chaos Lancelot.
They understand that he willingly made a deal with Chaos to protect Guinevere.
That makes the situation different from simple brainwashing or possession.
For the moment, Lancelot is their enemy.
Still, nobody wants to give up on him.
Tristan believes there must be a way to bring Lancelot back.
Then he comes up with what he thinks is the perfect plan.
Tristan Asks the Future Children for the Answer
The children of the Four Knights come from the future.
Therefore, Tristan assumes they should already know how the Chaos Lancelot crisis ends.
At first, the idea sounds obvious.
The future children quickly ruin it.
They do not know how Lancelot was stopped.
The crisis happened before they were born.
Their parents apparently never explained the complete truth to them either.
Britannia Survives the Chaos Lancelot Crisis
The future children can still provide one reassuring answer.
Britannia exists in their era.
Their presence proves that the current crisis does not completely destroy the world.
However, they also reveal that something enormous happens between the current era and theirs.
The world changes dramatically.
That answer becomes much more unsettling as they explain what their future looks like.
The Seven Deadly Sins Are Legends in the Future
The children explain that meeting the Seven Deadly Sins surprised them.
In their era, Meliodas, Ban, Diane, King, Gowther, and the others belong to old stories.
They are historical or legendary figures rather than living heroes.
Even more surprising, some of the children apparently questioned whether those stories described real people at all.
Seeing the Sins in person confirms that the legends were true.
Giants and Fairies No Longer Exist
The biggest revelation concerns the other races.
The future children say that Giants and Fairies do not exist in their timeline.
That makes meeting Diane and King especially shocking.
The same problem extends even further.
They have never seen Demons or Goddesses either.
Tristan stands out because his mixed Demon and Goddess blood makes him something that no longer normally exists in their era.
The chapter does not explain what happened to these races.
Still, the future apparently looks radically different from the Britannia everyone knows now.
Does Chaos Lancelot Change the Entire World?
The future children know that the world changed significantly before and after the Chaos Lancelot incident.
However, they do not know the complete sequence of events.
That means Chapter 252 does not confirm that Lancelot personally causes the disappearance of every non-human race.
The timing is still alarming.
Whatever happens during this crisis appears connected to one of the biggest historical changes in Britannia.
That gives the Four Knights another reason to stop it.
Percival Refuses to Give Up
The revelations briefly shake the group.
If the future has changed this much, they cannot be certain what lies ahead.
However, Percival pushes everyone back toward the immediate problem.
They still need to save Lancelot.
The fact that the future children exist proves there is a path forward.
Now they need to create it themselves.
What Is the Holy Grail?
The group turns toward Gawain and the Holy Grail that Merlin previously gave her.
The Grail contains Arthur’s blood.
That matters because Arthur controls Chaos.
Instead of treating the blood as another mystery, the Four Knights decide to use it as the foundation of a weapon.
Their target is no longer simply Lancelot.
They need something capable of striking Chaos itself.
Dubs Will Forge New Sacred Treasures
The group decides to take Arthur’s blood to Dubs.
Their plan is to have the legendary Giant craftsman forge new Sacred Treasures designed specifically to fight Chaos.
At first, the plan calls for three weapons.
Percival immediately corrects them.
They need four.
Percival Still Counts Lancelot as a Four Knight
Percival refuses to remove Lancelot from the group.
Even after everything that happened in Camelot, he still considers Lancelot one of the Four Knights of the Apocalypse.
Therefore, Dubs should create a Sacred Treasure for him too.
Percival believes Lancelot will return.
When he does, all four Knights will need weapons capable of fighting Chaos together.
That decision changes the tone of the chapter.
The future may look terrifying, but the Four Knights are no longer planning around Lancelot’s death.
They are planning for his return.
What Is Four Knights Chapter 253 Called?
Chapter 252 ends with the next title:
“Toward Hope!!”
The title fits the group’s new direction.
Instead of waiting for the future children to provide an answer, they decide to create their own.
Arthur’s blood, the Holy Grail, and Dubs now form the basis of the plan.
The biggest question for Chapter 253 is whether they can reach Dubs and turn that idea into four weapons before Chaos Lancelot makes his next move.
Where to Read Four Knights Chapter 252
Four Knights of the Apocalypse Chapter 252 will be available officially through K MANGA.
The chapter does not provide an easy answer for stopping Lancelot.
Instead, it reveals that the current crisis stands near a massive turning point in Britannia’s history.
The Four Knights still refuse to surrender one of their own.
