"But...... I always feel a little awkward in my heart like this, and isn't it too unfair to you, Vivian......" The blonde girl interlaced her fingers in embarrassment, and the snow-white teeth that bit her lower lip looked particularly hesitant.

"You think too much about Lily." Vivien chuckled, "I don't care about serving the imp with you, so why should you be stuck in that, Lily?" ”

"Uh......h Since it's Vivien's request, then I'll ......" The girl lowered her head, as if to say something.

…………

"Alright, Miss Vivien, if your joke continues, Merlin's gaze will pierce me!" Seeing that the situation was getting serious, I had no choice but to interrupt the conversation between the girl and Vivien.

The resentful gaze behind me made me worry if dozens of extremely powerful attack spells would be thrown at me in the next moment......

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, because Lily is so innocent, so I can't help but want to tease." Vivian playfully stuck out her tongue, "I can't imagine that after more than ten years, Lily is still so cute, and she won't doubt what others say at all, hehe......"

"Play...... Joke? The girl froze in place, "Vivian, is everything you just said ......?"

…………

"Of course it can't be true." Vivien stretched out her hands, "If nothing else, just with the love of the little ghost for Lily, it is impossible for others to intervene, right?" ”

"Yes...... That's right. The girl held her chest and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Vivien, you really scared me to death, for a moment I thought you were really planning to ......"

"How is this possible, no matter how much I do, I will not destroy the relationship between you and the little ghost." Vivien propped her forehead and said, "Really...... Lily, you have learned to be a little scheming, how to govern the country well with such simplicity. ”

"That's it." At this time, Merlin also stepped forward to help, "Artoria, you haven't noticed such an obvious trap, you still need to exercise more in the future!" ”

…………

"Merlin, you go!" Unexpectedly, Vivien didn't appreciate Merlin's help at all, but frowned and glared at him fiercely, "I'm talking to Lily, what's the matter with you suddenly breaking in?" This is a conversation between ladies, where do you cool me down! ”

"I ......" Merlin was stunned for a moment, neither to go, nor to go, and to freeze in place.

"What are you? You still claim to be the smartest wise man of our time, haven't you heard that I was joking, putting on that embarrassing look? Vivien was unforgiving, and her sharp language slashed at Merlin's fragile little heart like a knife, "It's just that Lily is a little girl, how old have you lived, why don't you have a long brain at all?" I know that I am a wolf with a big tail in front of Lily all day long! ”

Merlin's face flushed, and he was speechless.

…………

"Well said, Miss Vivien!" I couldn't help but applaud.

For Artoria and I, who have always been harassed by Merlin in various senses, it was the most relieving thing in the world to see Merlin deflated, especially the face that always wrinkled aggrievedly with a cynical smile.

"Who...... Who said I didn't see it? It was a full half minute before Merlin stammered, trying to win back some dignity for herself, "I could tell Vivien was playing Artoria's joke." I'm here to match Vivien...... Yes, it was for the sake of cooperation that I deliberately acted extremely convinced. ”

After bragging without a draft, the corners of Merlin's mouth lifted happily, as if he was very satisfied with his haste and wisdom.

…………

"Well, it's been a hard fit, dear Merlin." Vivien didn't say anything, and said to Merlin with gratitude on the surface.

"Hehe, it's nothing, that's what I'm supposed to do." Merlin also climbed the snake and climbed the pole, and took the credit very shamelessly, "After all, being empathetic is the most prominent one among the many advantages I can't count!" ”

"So, in recognition of your actions, you can fulfill tonight your long-awaited wish to measure my three dimensions with your own hands." Vivien blinked her big eyes and said slyly.

“…… It's true?! Merlin's eyes lit up, and his breathing became a little shorter.

"Who knows, it's up to the most empathetic Lord Merlin to judge whether it's a joke or not." Vivien casually spread her hands and smiled, "Either come to my room tonight, or stay still, choose one of the two." If you choose the wrong one, I won't give you a chance to touch me for the rest of my life. ”

"Hmm...... How can you ...... like this?"

Merlin's excited face suddenly fell, and he turned his back and drew a variety of symbols on the ground and began to divination......

…………

"I'm really sorry, because I couldn't find anyone else to ask for, so I had to choose Merlin in the end. Let everyone laugh. ”

Leaving Merlin aside entirely, Vivien whispered softly to me and the girl.

"......" I didn't know what to put on my face, so I could only keep smiling.

At the critical moment, it was the blonde girl next to me who saved us.

…………

"Vivian, Mr. Merlin said that you have something very important to do with me and Shirou this time." The girl's turquoise eyes looked straight at the beautiful girl in the black dress in front of her, "Can I ask what it is?" ”

"That's it." Vivien looked abruptly realized, "If you don't say it, Lily, I'll almost forget!" ”

As she spoke, Vivien snapped her fingers behind her.

Suddenly, a stream of clear water swirled and rose from the sacred lake, and something seemed to be wrapped in it.

…………

With a slight wave of his hand, the stream of water changed direction, flowing through Vivienne's white, delicate fingers in the air.

After the current disappeared completely, a broad, sharp golden sword came into everyone's eyes.

The sword is about three feet long and ten centimeters wide, and its appearance is extremely elegant and magnificent.

"Lily, this is the sword of victory of the oath that you have been using all these years." With a smile, Vivien handed the holy sword to the maiden, "It's time to return it to its rightful owner." ”

…………

“…… Why? Didn't I already ask Shirou to return the sword to you? ”

Looking at the familiar holy sword, the girl did not make any move at the first time, but asked Vivien with a puzzled face.

"Please, Lily, doesn't it make a difference if you don't return the sword? The world knows that the Sword of Oath Victory is the symbol of your knight king, and you are its sole master. Vivien tilted her head and pouted,
