"You?" Mordred looked at Shen He with obvious disdain on his face, "As a master, you are not my type at all."
"..." Shen He's smile froze on his face.
It was rare for him to be humiliated like this.
However, it seemed that the master that Mordred liked was not his type, but the type that was more generous and straightforward.
"If you don't want to, then don't want to," Shen He smiled slightly, and directly reached out to hold Altria's hand, "Let's go, Altria, let's go home and make you something delicious, and don't worry about this person."
"Oh." Altria responded, and followed Shen He obediently, looking a little well-behaved.
Mordred was stunned.
Is this really her father?
"Please wait a moment, father!" She rushed up and blocked them, then pointed at Shen He with her finger, "This man must have used some despicable means to make you sign a contract with him. Yes, he must have used delicious food to tempt you! I will definitely rescue you from this guy!"
Gudako and Mashu next to them showed some strange expressions on their faces.
If potato chips can be considered delicious food.
It seems that there is no problem
in saying this. "What are you talking about?" However, Altria's face suddenly turned cold, "If it weren't for the Master, I wouldn't even understand where my fault is. Mordred, I am now a knight fighting to protect the Master. If you speak rudely again, let me try to see if your swordsmanship has improved." Although sometimes I
have learned to joke.
But in Altria's heart now, her Master is still the first.
"Father..."
Mordred stared at his father in a daze.
I have to admit.
The father has indeed changed. The father in the past was so cold, and it seemed that he would always be the flag that people chased. If that was the case just now, the father in the past would never say it to himself.
If all these changes were brought about by this man,
then wouldn't it be...
"Mordred." Shen He spoke at this time, "You should have been summoned to this city suddenly."
"Yes." Mordred took a deep breath, temporarily suppressed his feelings for his father, and looked at Shen He, "I have always wanted to ask, why is there a Master in this era, and where are you from? Why can you sign a contract with your father?"
"I am the Master of Chaldea..." Shen He spent some time talking about Chaldea, the Guardian of Humanity, and even the singularity, and then asked, "As far as we know, the summoned Servants are basically divided into two categories, one is a destroyer, and the other is a guardian. What about you, which category are you?"
He actually asked knowingly.
But he just wanted Mordred to say it himself.
"I..." Mordred looked at Altria, hesitated for a long time, but still said, "I should be the guardian, at least I have been fighting those machines."
"In that case, as a traitorous knight, you chose to protect the city of Britain this time, and chose to protect the land that Altria once ruled?" Shen He did not save any face and directly spoke out Mordred's inner thoughts.
Altria's eyes flickered slightly.
Mordred's face was already flushed.
"No, it's not like that."
"Why don't you admit it? You're not a tsundere person, are you?" Shen He approached, "Just now, you were talking about fighting, but you were thinking about dying to atone for your sins. Isn't it because you always have love and respect for Altria in your heart?"
"......" Mordred took a deep breath, blushed and shouted, "Yes, that's right, that's it, so I plan to protect this city well this time! Is there anything wrong with that?"
"So, that's it." Shen He turned around and looked at Altria, "Your daughter is like this."
"......So, it's really my fault." Altria said a little depressed.
If Mordred was a simple ambitious man who rebelled against her for power and desire, it would be better.
But even if it was her daughter who loved her deeply.
If he picked up the sword and pointed it at her, it could only mean that it was her own problem.
"No..." Mordred was a little anxious again.
"Okay, there's no point in arguing about this topic." Shen He stretched out his hand to interrupt her. "Anyway, now that we are here, we can protect this city. If you have nothing to do, just find a place to play. Anyway, don't cause trouble for Altria and us anymore."
Shen He's somewhat contemptuous look and the words "cause trouble for Altria" completely hit Mordred's soft spot.
"I am a Knight of the Round Table! The one who is closest to my father! How could I lick..."
"You are just causing trouble now." Shen He interrupted her again, "Since you don't want to be our partner, why are you blocking our way? Isn't that causing trouble?"
"...Huhu." Mordred panted heavily and stared at Shen He fiercely, "Do you think this cheap provocation will work on me...Okay, then I will be your partner temporarily, just temporarily, and I will prove my ability to my father."
"Whatever you want." Shen He smiled.
Mashu, who had been watching the whole process from the side, couldn't help but pull Gudako's sleeve.
"I always feel that Lord Shen He is so scary, Senior."
"Yeah." Gudako nodded vigorously, and then looked longing, "But, to some extent, he is also very powerful. I wonder if I can become such a powerful master one day."
Almost with a wave of his hand, he tamed the originally unruly Heroic Spirit.
She could already imagine.
This rebellious Mordred, I am afraid he can't escape the palm of Shen He's hand.
Wait——
Could it be that since the day when I used potato chips to lure the Knight King, I have already prepared everything that happened later? If I meet the Knights of the Round Table, wouldn't they all be...
so powerful and so scary?
Gudako knows what a real master should be like.
Anyway.
Shen He finally succeeded in keeping Mordred by his side.
"So, you don't know what's going on here?" Shen He asked casually as he walked, "Just all the residents can only shrink in the room? And then you can see swaying mechanical monsters everywhere on the street?"
"That's right... But we already have companions to investigate." Mordred tried to maintain his image in front of Altria, "They are very good at investigation. I will take you there now."
"No, no need." Shen He shook his head and pointed around, "Does this still need to be investigated? Just looking at the white fog, and then looking at the toxins and sulfuric acid in the fog, you can roughly guess it, am I right, Jack?"
The last sentence was obviously not said to Mordred.
So all of them were startled.
And at this moment.
A thin voice like a child appeared from the white fog.
"Do you know my name?"
"Of course, speaking of this city and the white fog, it's easy to think of you, Jack the Ripper." Shen He's sight seemed to penetrate the white fog and focus on the little person in front of him.
"Servant reaction detected!" Olga Marie's voice suddenly came over, "The one standing in front of you is a Servant, but if it's Jack the Ripper, isn't he a person of this era?"
"He became a Servant for some reason." Shen He responded simply.
Jack the Ripper was also encountered in Jeanne's original plot line, and he was also an enemy.
So Shen He still knows a lot about him.
In short, she is a yandere little girl who longs for maternal love.
"Did you create this fog?" Mordred raised his sword, "What is your purpose? Do you have any accomplices?"
"Do you want to kill Jack too?" The small figure in the thick fog seemed very vague, "Then Jack will kill you first."
"What--!?"
Mordred only had time to exclaim, and quickly raised the sword in her hand. With a sound of blocking, the sword was obviously cut by the dagger, but when she wanted to fight back, she couldn't catch the figure of the criminal at all.
"Damn, she is not affected by this fog at all, and she is an assassin!"
If she was in a place with good vision, she would naturally not be afraid of an assassin, but now she can only passively defend, and even dare not chase.
It is too dangerous to rashly chase into the thick fog without knowing whether the other party has any accomplices around.
"Back off, Mordred." Artoria came up, holding up the sword in her hand. "I remember I taught you how to use the sword to feel the enemy's range, for example - now!"
The sword in her hand swung out an invisible outline, and the strong wind even blew away part of the thick fog. Then, with a bang, a little girl was hit hard on the ground by her sword.
"It hurts."
Jack cried as if crying, but his body bounced up again, trying to rush back into the thick fog.
However, the gap between her and Artoria was too big.
So big that even the best assassins could not compare with her speed.
Just another sword.
Artoria easily pressed Jack into the corner, with the long sword against her neck and the sword pressing on her shoulders, making her unable to move.
"Master, how to deal with it?"
Artoria looked at Shen He.
Gudako and others only came at this time.
"It's actually a child, incredible, is this the killer who left behind that horror legend?" Gudako felt that the heroes in history were always beyond imagination.
Looking at the child in front of her who was trembling with fear.
She could never have imagined that she would be a killer.
But Shen He obviously would not do anything because of her appearance, although he has always been soft-hearted towards girls.
"You have an accomplice." Shen He squatted down and looked at Jack, "Tell me... Forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't tell me."
He stood up again.
"Wait, are you soft-hearted?" Mordred immediately jumped over and looked at Shen He, "This is the prisoner captured by my father."
"Yeah, it's not you who captured him, why are you so proud." Shen He looked at him speechlessly, "It's just that I already know where the enemy is."
"Say, what big talk!"
Mordred crossed his arms across his chest, looking very unhappy.
"Master, you are not exaggerating." Altria shook her head gently and looked at Mordred. "Compared to the battles that the Master has experienced, the current enemy is just an insignificant dessert. No, it's not even a dessert, it's just a snack. Mordred, it's very important to see the difference in strength."
"How could it be, even my father..." Mordred's face flushed slightly.
She has not shown her ability to her father until now.
Instead, she has been hit again and again. If this
goes on
, wouldn't it be impossible to get the recognition and praise of her father even for this rare meeting?
"Well, I'm just watching out for the person who created such a singularity, and whether there is any special preparation." Shen He looked around, "But now it seems that there is no, so there is no need to waste time... Let's train Gudako and Mashu on the way."
To be precise, Shen He actually came here for Mordred this time.
But now it seems
that if she is given the opportunity to perform, maybe this time he will not have the opportunity to summon her as a servant.
Therefore, let's resolve it quickly. I believe Mordred would not be willing to part with his father so easily.
Having made up his mind, Shen He did not hesitate.
"Let's go." He took a step in a certain direction.
"Okay." Altria put away her sword and followed Shen He.
She ignored Jack.
"Why, just let him go?" Before Mordred finished speaking, Jack had disappeared in the thick fog in an instant.
She could only keep up.
But she still couldn't believe it.
Shen He could really solve everything like this.
Then, the group followed Shen He and walked in a certain direction.
Along the way, all the miscellaneous soldiers they met were just handed over to Gudako and Mashu for training, so they walked very slowly.
In fact, Shen He was also waiting.
Waiting for another person.
- Tamamonomae.
As one of the most popular servants in the entire game, this seems to be her first appearance, and Shen He wants to get in touch with her.
However, he has not yet found where Tamamonomae is.
So, take it slow.
"Father, how did you become this man's servant?" Mordred took this opportunity to keep pestering Altria, "Were you summoned? Or did you make a contract after meeting him?"
As one of the most popular servants in the entire game, this seems to be her first appearance. Shen He wants to get in touch with her.
