Chapter 367: The Opening of the King's Banquet
Night has once again fallen in the forests of Einzbelen. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The night was still dark and quiet, but the traces of the fierce battles scattered everywhere were still clearly visible.
A glittering electric light streaked across the night sky, as if to indicate that the night would not be peaceful.
Suddenly, a roar rang out over the forest. Not only that, but the roar that tore through the night also put a huge burden on Alice Phil's magic circuit, who was standing on the balcony of the castle, and the dizziness almost caused Alice Phil to collapse under the porch.
The roar came from close thunder, and the ensuing blast of mana meant that the barrier in the forest outside the city had been attacked. Although the enchantment is not something that is so easy to destroy, the spell has been destroyed.
"What's going on...... A head-on breakout? β
A pair of strong arms held Alice Phil's shoulders, the arms of Saber who appeared beside her for the first time after noticing the mutation.
"Are you alright? Alice Fell. β
"Well, just a surprise. I didn't expect such a mess of guests to visit. β
"I'll go out and greet you, you stay by my side."
Alice Fell nodded. Staying with Saber, who was on her way to meet her, meant that she had to face the enemy herself. But the battlefield is the safest place for Alice Phil, because the strongest servant is right next to him.
Alice Phil quickened her pace to follow Saber, and the two of them sped through the horrific castle, aiming for the terrace outside the entrance. Since it was the other party attacking from the front, it should be able to meet him there.
"The thunder just now, and this unplanned tactic...... The other party should be a rider. β
"I think so."
Alice Fell recalls the power of the Noble Phantasm "Kamui Wheel" that she had witnessed in Warehouse Street a few days ago. The Sacred Ox Chariot entwined with thunder and lightning - once the full power of the Rival Treasure is unleashed, I am afraid that it can easily destroy the magic array set up in the forest. It would have been fine if the barrier had been intact, but due to the attack of the Berserker group and Kenneth among the Aliens yesterday, the barrier has not recovered from the damage at that time.
"Hey, Knight King! I'm here to meet you, come out! Yes? β
The voice came from the hall, and it seemed that the other party had already stepped through the main entrance. There was no doubt that the enemy was Iskandar, the king of conquest, and listening to his hearty shout, it did not look like a warrior about to fight.
But Saber didn't dare to slack off, and she materialized the magic armor as she ran.
Alice Phil and Saber finally made their way through the hallway to the terrace...... However, when the two of them saw the enemy servant standing in the hall through the moonlight from the skylight, they immediately did not know what to say.
ββ¦β¦β
"Yo, Saber. When I heard about the castle, I wanted to come and see - how did this happen, huh? β
Rider grinned unashamedly and bared his teeth, and then he moved his neck in a deliberate manner.
"There are too many trees in the yard, it's too inconvenient to get in and out, and I almost got lost before I got to the city gate, so I cut some for you, thank me." The view has become much better. (What a justifiable demolition of someone's home!) οΌ
βriderγ You ......"
Saber snapped, but she didn't know what to say in the face of this inexplicable enemy. Rider said with a surprised frown.
"Hey! Knight King, aren't you going to change into a modern outfit tonight? Don't wear that stiff armor all the time. β
If Saber's appearance in armor is said to be rigid, then what should be said about Rider's jeans and T-shirt? If you think of this armor as Saber's pride, the cracks in the thick breastplate seem to hint at its fragility. Here, perhaps, it can only be said that "the ignorant are invincible".
Webber half-hid behind the rider's massive frame, looking up at Alice Phil with a look on his face that was hostile or terrified. Needless to say, his face clearly reads "I want to go home" and "hurry up".
"I've said I've long said you're an idiot in this outfit, and you always like to show off so much." Naturally, the only thing that dared to say it so directly in front of the rider was the night death, and I saw him leading Sakura into the broken gate leisurely.
"It's you in the night." Rider also seemed happy to see Nightfall coming, "Why are you here too?" β
Nightshade smiled and stood beside Saber, "Why can't I come when you come to visit someone?" Anyway, they're allies. β
"Allies ... Yes, too. Rider smiled, acknowledging the reason for the Nightfall.
"Visit?" Saber was a little puzzled, "What the hell are you here for?" β
Rider held up the bucket in his hand, and no matter how you looked at it, it was a wooden red wine bottle. The rider, who easily clipped the sake bottle under his arm, is like a sake brewery owner who has come to deliver the goods. (The owner of your tavern is such a big man!) οΌ
"Still don't understand? I'm looking for you for a drink - hey, don't be there, lead the way, is there a courtyard suitable for a banquet? It's all gray inside this castle, no. β
ββ¦β¦β
Saber sighed helplessly, and the anger that had been stored in his chest disappeared. Looking at this seemingly innocent opponent, she couldn't maintain her fighting spirit.
"Alice Phil, what should I do?"
Alice Phil was similarly confused.
She was angry that the forest's barrier had been destroyed, but after seeing that grinning face, she couldn't get angry anyway.
"He's not the kind of person who sets traps, does he really want to drink?"
Nightshade saw the confusion of the two: "Don't think too much, it's not time for a full-scale war yet." β
"Really?" Hearing Nightfall's words, Saber let go of her doubts, she was still more willing to trust Nightshade who had just helped them yesterday.
Alice Phil still has a question: "Do you want to adopt a soft policy?" β
Rider shook his head: "No, it's a challenge. β
Saber, who should have lost his fighting spirit, became serious for some reason at this moment.
"Challenge?"
"Yes...... I am the king, and she is the king. If you want to divide the high and low at the wine table, it is equivalent to a bloodless 'battle'. β
Perhaps hearing Saber's words, the King of Conquest smiled and nodded.
"Hehe, it's good to understand. Since you can't fight each other with swords, let's use wine to fight it out. Knight King, I won't let you go tonight, get ready. β
"Interesting. I accept. β
Saber, who resolutely responded, exuded a fighting spirit as if he were on the battlefield. Only now does Alice Phil realize that this is not a joke, but a real "fight".
"Is it really a matter of drinking to win or lose?" Alice Phil looked worriedly at Saber's petite body.
"Don't worry." Nightshade looked at the two of them who were burning with flames of war, "This battle is not so serious, at least not as serious as you think. (To be continued.) )
