The correct answer is A. King Arthur expects his knight to act in a chivalrous manner.

It is expected of any knight to listen to his king and obey his rules. Sir Bedivere failed to do this, which is why Arthur reprimanded him for not doing what he was ordered to do. It was important during this time to be loyal to the king, and do whatever he wants.
