Chapter 131: Convergence
In order not to be discovered by Joan of Arc's Ruler privileges, Achilles the Red and Atallanta the Red went too far and only wandered along the border line of the Sighisoara region.
Not long after receiving Semiramis's summons, the two returned to the king's house.
When he pushed open the gate between the kings, Achilles was still carrying half a deer, apparently the prey that Atalanta had picked up while he was on standby. She is worthy of the legendary huntress of ancient Greece, who never forgets to hunt wherever she goes.
As for the other half of the deer, it has become a roast in the hands of Atalanta, and looking at the oil on Achilles' mouth, it is estimated that this guy has not eaten less.
Seeing the lazy appearance of the two, Semiramis immediately frowned: "Let you wait for your life to crusade against the enemy, not to go to a picnic." ”
"What about the enemy? Why didn't I see it. Achilles put his free hand on his forehead and made a lookout, "It caused me and my eldest sister to blow the cold wind in the middle of the night, and Uncle Ben hasn't asked you for an explanation." ”
Atalanta was even more direct, didn't even bother to say a word, and continued to gnaw on the deer's legs. Nothing to do with elegance, full of wild eating looks unceremoniously declares her attitude - I'm towering meow ignoring you Semiramis.
Such a disrespectful gesture between the two naturally aroused the anger of the Assyrian empress, and Shirou hurriedly appeased her.
"Okay, okay, anyway, the operation has been canceled, so don't worry about these little things. Good work, Rider, Archer. ”
Achilles snorted, sort of an answer.
Atalanta held up a deer leg: "Do you want some?"
Shirou glanced at Semiramis beside him and shook his head.
"Good intentions. ”
To tell the truth, he wanted to agree to Atalanta's invitation, and he was indeed a little hungry after being busy in the middle of the night, but who let Atalanta and Semiramis not deal with each other?
If he agreed, Semiramis would have made a fuss. So, for the sake of the upcoming big war, he can only endure.
Atalanta didn't care, and continued to bow her head and nibble violently. Although Father Shirou gave him a better feeling than the Assyrian empress who exuded intrigue and decadence, it was extremely limited, and her wild instincts told her that there was something wrong with this priest as well.
The sun-like dazzling particles of light dispersed, and the red lancer Karna walked into the king's room. Although he did not speak, his presence was something that no one could ignore.
"Lancer, I'm sorry to call you. ”
Hearing this, Lancer shook his head slightly. The slightly pale face was still like a mask, and the frozen expression did not waver in the slightest.
"It doesn't matter. What's going on?"
"Please wait a moment and I'll explain when the last person arrives. ”
For this "hero of giving", Shirou's posture is obviously much more solemn. Not only Shirou, but also other Red Servants, including the Empress, would not treat Karna with a casual attitude.
Five minutes later, the last person appeared in a gorgeous manner with the anxiety of everyone present. As soon as he stepped into the open door, he spread his hands in an exaggerated motion and cried out in a loud voice:
"Oh, 'You are as dark as hell and as dark as the night!' 'I feel so beautiful, even sparkling!'"
Semiramis sighed "sigh" and asked:
"Is that saying I am?"
The man asked, the Red Caster Literary Monster Shakespeare, nodded.
"Is there anyone else?O Empress of Assyria...... No, no, I'm sorry. I accidentally got overexcited. Because I've been in the mood to write for a long time, ah, ah, Father Shirou, did you get that thing? ”
"You said computers. It's been ready for a long time, right in my room. ”
"Then hurry—" Shakespeare urged.
Semiramis and the others, who saw this scene, also felt quite helpless.
“Caster…… Don't forget the Holy Grail War. ”
"Of course, Empress. Since you've brought us here, there's only one reason. It's war, right? Heroes are going to fight each other for supremacy, right? I, Caster, of course I'm going to enjoy - watch well!"
"I said, don't you fight?"
"Well, in fact, we are very unfamiliar with war and magic and so on, 'but the gods have put the right shortcomings on us in order to make us human'. ”
You're Caster—Achilles and Atalanta were tempted to point it out, but they held back.
In fact, as he said, Shakespeare was basically a heroic spirit who had nothing to do with "war". His duty (in his own opinion) is simply to record the Holy Grail War, and to weave the story of the suffering and despair, hope and violence that ensues with the protagonist.
Even more helpless than the Greek duo is the empress Semiramis, and the personality between the Red Servant is really very bad.
Spartacus, who is disobedient, Atalanta and Achilles, who are free and loose, Shakespeare, who has no combat power and tosses a little trouble from time to time, except for Karna, who has been silently carrying out orders, everyone else is constantly challenging the empress's limit of patience.
Especially when these people get together, the lethality increases exponentially, and I don't know how the master reconciles these people - at this time, Semiramis admires his master incomparably.
"All in all, everyone is here. Now is the time for us to go on a crusade. After all, it's a rare Holy Grail battle, and it's not fun to keep repeating skirmishes. ”
Achilles and Atalanta nodded a little reluctantly at Semiramis's words. As she said, skirmishes are just too boring.
However, war is not something that can be decided by mere enthusiasm and uninteresting meaning.
In a sense, the most heroic pragmatist, Atalanta, said: "Our berserker has become a pawn of the enemy, and Saber is not here, is it really appropriate to launch a general attack on Black in such an unfavorable situation?"
"Hey, big sister. ”
Before Semiramis could reply, Achilles spoke first.
"With me, I can fight at least three by myself. ”
"Your real name has been revealed!"
Atalante's emerald eyes glanced at Achilles faintly.
"Even if it's exposed, it's impossible to hurt my weaknesses in a head-to-head showdown with me. The latter laughed uncontrollably, showing his heroic qualities.
Atalanta refused: "What if it's a sneak attack? You've already been attacked by the Black Assassin once. ”
Achilles spread his hands helplessly: "I said eldest sister, which side are you on." ”
"I just don't want to lose, I still have a desire to achieve, that's all. ”
"Then let me help the eldest sister achieve her wish, correspondingly, my weaknesses are guarded by the eldest sister, with the eldest sister here, I don't have to worry about being sneak attacked." ”
"Thou art ......"
Achilles was at first a little dissatisfied with the cunning words in his naivety. After thinking about it carefully, he found that this was the best thing to do, so he shook his tail and acquiesced in the matter.
"But that doesn't change the fact that we're at a disadvantage—Assassin, Thou ...... What kind of eyes are that?"
The moment she looked up, Atalanta saw the Assassin's playful eyes.
"It's nothing, I just think your feelings are really good. Semiramis simply stopped hiding it, "I don't know how Rider's father, Mr. Peleus, would feel when he saw this scene." ”。
"What does this have to do with my father?" Achilles looked at Atalanta suspiciously, who was also confused.
"It's nothing, just think I'm talking to myself. "Semiramis, who learned of Peleus's longing for Atalante, did not expose it, and secretly enjoyed it alone.
"I don't understand what you're thinking. Achilles sat on the ground with his hands on his chest, "If you have time to say that you don't understand, it's better to answer the eldest sister's question." ”
Let me answer that question. ”
"You/Thou ——?"
Hearing this, Atalanta and Achilles turned their heads in surprise, and even Karna's expression fluctuated slightly.
It was none other than Caster, Shakespeare.
