"Sorry Artoria, I'm late......"

When I saw the girl who came in a hurry, I couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt in my heart.

"Shirou, don't talk yet. If you still have the strength, hold my hand! ”

Before Buck could put my body down, the girl stepped forward and grabbed my palm, and spoke eagerly.

“……！” There was a soft and warm touch in the palm of the hand, and at the same time, a magic with heat poured into the body.

Under the effect of this strange magic, the damage caused by excessive force in the body has also been effectively repaired. Although he still can't accumulate mana, his limbs seem to be able to move easily.

"Artoria, what are you ......" I couldn't help but look up at the nervous girl in front of me in confusion.

"Whew...... Looks like it's okay anymore. Seeing that I was able to move and speak freely, the girl also breathed a sigh of relief, and raised her hand to wipe the slight beads of sweat left on her forehead.

"When I was in the Shadow Country, with the help of Sister Skaha, my fusion with the Red Dragon became even closer, and I gained more of the dragon's own abilities. For example, to transmit the magic power in the body to other humans through physical contact......" The girl whispered softly in my ear.

"There's such a convenient way to replenish mana." I couldn't help but sigh.

A handshake like this can transfer mana to the subject, but it's much more convenient than the way that you need to exchange bodily fluids to replenish your mana.

But it's not why, but there is a trace of regret in my heart.

I feel that in the future, I will probably lose many opportunities for intimate contact because of this, and this is the only subjective flaw......

"Shirou, in fact, there is a more effective way to replenish mana than this......" The girl looked at my expression and whispered with a red face.

"Huh? What is it? I subconsciously asked.

"Hmm...... Shirou, don't move. The girl bit her lip, took a deep breath, and suddenly stretched out her hands and firmly fixed my head.

Then, her beautiful face quickly enlarged in my eyes!

"Chirp—"

Eventually, the girl's soft, warm lips gently covered my lips.

“……”

Although it was a bit unexpected, I don't know how many times I had kissed before, so I didn't feel stranger from before, both internally and externally.

After that, the girl blushed shyly, puffed out her cheeks slightly, and slowly blew all her breath into my mouth.

“……！” My eyes widened.

The unique smell of the girl, combined with the pure and flawless aroma in the mouth, can be said to be an unprecedented strong stimulation for every cell in the body!

I subconsciously raised my arms and hugged the girl who had been lying on top of me since just now in my arms.

"Shirou...... Let go of me, don't ...... here," the girl let go of me as if frightened, and whined, smacking my chest twice with her slender wrist.

"Ahh......h I'm sorry! I reacted suddenly, and immediately let go of the arm that was wrapped around the girl's flexible waist.

Looking around, he saw that Carlo, Barker, and many other British soldiers had already turned their faces away in amusement, and used their bodies as a strong bulwark, completely isolating the inside scene from the outside.

"Whew, it's so dangerous...... "With the help of the girl, I gently straightened up and sat upright.

"Shirou, are you feeling better? Just ...... According to the red dragon in my body, it is the 'breath of the dragon', which carries the pure magic that has been circulated by the dragon's heart, which can greatly improve the lack of mana......"

There was still a blush on the girl's face, and she lowered her head and said with some embarrassment.

“……”

My mind moved, and I closed my eyes slightly and started to look inward.

The circuit damage caused by the excessive use of the magic power of Vantigeng has been completely recovered under the effect of the breath just now, and the toughness and elasticity are even better than before!

And in it, the abundant magic is flowing with unprecedented vitality.

When I opened my eyes, I didn't know what words to use to describe my feelings at the moment.

Is this the power of the Dragon's Breath? Not only did it completely heal the injuries in my body, but it even completely filled the magic power that I was lacking in an instant!

"Shirou, that ...... The result? After all, this is the first time I've used 'Dragon's Breath', and if it's not satisfactory, ......" The girl said as she sat beside me with some uneasiness when she saw me open her eyes again.

"No, it's so good, I can't believe it's real." I reached out and stroked the girl's supple blonde hair and laughed.

"Well, it's great that I can help the sergeant." The girl nodded in relief, smiling as bright as the sun.

"Then it's time to deal with the last character." I stood up and put my arms around the girl's body, looking up at Iskandar, who was not far away with a calm expression.

"Iskander, three of your subordinates have been completely defeated, and the Macedonian legion has been completely crushed by our British army. Aren't you going to surrender yet? I asked in a loud voice to Iskandar, who was standing alone across from me.

I was accompanied by Artoria, Barker, Carlo, and a bunch of British soldiers who trusted me. As long as I think of this, my heart is full of confidence, Iskander's so-called overlord aura cannot affect me in the slightest.

"Whew...... At this point, it seems that there is no way to do it. The Knight King, although it is not on your own strength, but this king will admit that you won this battle. Iskandar sighed, but then there was a hint of relief on his face.

"And the little ghost, this king has never lost a game since he fought for hegemony. I hope that in the future, you can bring this king a surprise that I have never seen before hahahaha......" Iskandar raised an eyebrow at me and laughed roughly.

"In other words, you're willing to join my Britannica, aren't you?" I smiled too.

"Yes, there is no way to do it, after all, I have made an appointment with you and the Knight King in advance. As a king, if you easily break your promise, you won't be able to gain the trust of the soldiers and the people. There was no humiliation of defeat in Iskandar's expression, but rather a bright and heroic look.

"How's that going, Artoria? Make Iskandar and his men part of us from today? I looked down and gently confirmed the blonde girl in my arms.

"From now on, all matters in Britain will be left to Shirou, and Shirou does not need to ask for my opinion." The girl shook her head slightly and said to me.
