"Good morning, Nero."

I greeted her with a smile as well.

Either way, it was gratifying that she was able to get along with Artoria, even if it was only on the surface.

"Knight King, Contractor, you have come just in time......"

Just then, Joan of Arc walked briskly towards us, as if about to say something in a hurry.

Then when she saw Nero, her eyes widened slightly.

"You...... Could it be the Roman Emperor? ”

Joan of Arc looked at Nero from head to toe, a look of suspicion.

"Well, the rest is Nero Claudius, the emperor of the Roman Empire!" Nero puffed up his chest proudly and said, "Looking at Qing's appearance, he should be a great religious person, Yu is very interested in talking to Qing." ”

"Don't."

Unexpectedly, however, Joan of Arc stepped back twice, with a clear rejection on her face.

"Joan of Arc? How are you ......?"

I asked a little strangely.

"What? Are you the stubborn French saint? When Nero heard Joan of Arc's name, his face changed instantly, "You guy, why are you next to Yu's player?" Could it be that you have some intentions? “

Completely different from Fang Cai's innocent smile, the expression on Nero's face at this moment was more of a resistance, a prevarication or even an evasion.

"I'm going to ask you, Roman tyrant!" Joan of Arc did not give an inch, with an aggressive attitude, "You, the 666 beast in religious records, are enough to be compared to the Babylonian great **, and you are not satisfied with destroying your own Rome, do you actually plan to destroy Britain?" I'm one of the few adjudicators among the Heroes, and if you don't leave quickly, I'll drive you away with my own hands!" ”

"That...... Don't make any noise, you've both misunderstood. I smiled wryly and hurried up to separate the two sides, "Joan of Arc is not so unreasonable, Nero is not a real tyrant, you are all extremely important beings to me......"

"Hmph, Yu Cai doesn't want to be a partner with this kind of person!" Nero pouted and reluctantly said, "If you want her to live without me, if you want me to do without her!" ”

"That's what I should say! Nero Claudius, if you don't want to be burned by the flame of the Red Lotus, hurry back to where you need to be! Joan of Arc fought back with a frown.

The two of them completely ignored my rescue, and you quarreled with me every word, and they couldn't stop it at all.

In the end, it was Artoria who came forward to vouch, and the two stopped arguing.

However, both parties have since refused to speak at all, even refusing to make eye contact.

Even through the air, the hostility was palpable.

Alas......

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

Sure enough, as Nero said, she and Joan of Arc were fundamentally incompatible.

As long as they meet, they will quarrel almost 100 percent, and there is no room for maneuver.

If only Joan of Arc had been informed earlier......

No, I guess that's not going to help.

“……”

The girl next to me gently tugged on my sleeve and motioned with her eyes not to act rashly.

It's not your fault, you've done well enough, it's out of your control.

I could see something like that in her eyes.

Artoria was as empathetic as ever, comforting me in distress.

So, although Nero and Joan of Arc are awkward now—

But everything is man-made, and taking your time may be able to find a way to make the relationship better.

"Ahem...... Everyone got up so early, so I guess we haven't had breakfast yet. I looked at the three girls and kept their usual smiles as much as possible, "So, how about I make breakfast and eat together later?" ”

"The performer's cooking is naturally very concerned, but the premise is that this holy woman is not there!" Nero glanced at Joan of Arc contemptuously, "As long as she's here, Yu will never dine at the same table with her!" ”

"Do you think I'm going to eat with you? That is nothing short of blasphemy against God. "Joan of Arc also looks like he doesn't eat oil and salt.

"I mean, you're pretty much done......"

I can't help but laugh, are these two guys really planning to fight to the end?

However, no matter how much I tried to persuade them, they refused to accept to have breakfast together.

That's a problem......

Just when I was at a loss for what to do, Artoria walked up.

"Nero, it doesn't matter if you refuse to dine at the same table with Joan of Arc, but if Joan of Arc knows that you won't come, she will definitely take the opportunity to strengthen her relationship with Shirou. Doesn't that matter? ”

"How's that going to work! The performer is unique, how can the most precious treasure in this world be robbed by this holy woman! ”

Nero suddenly put his hands on his waist in anger.

"Again, Joan of Arc can refuse to be served, but Nero will surely take the opportunity to dine at the same table with Shirou. If you're not there, maybe Shirou will like Nero more and snub you......"

"That's absolutely not going to work! I must protect my contractor with the light of God at all times, and I must not allow the character of the tyrant to defile his soul so noble and pure! ”

Joan of Arc shook her head again and again without hesitation.

"Don't want to be alone with the performer (contractor)!"

Joan of Arc and Nero just glared at each other without backing down.

"So, even if Overseer Shirou won't be taken away by one of them, you must always guard him, right?" The girl's blue eyes revealed a hint of cunning, "In my opinion, it is the best plan for you to dine with Shirou!" ”

“……”

Joan of Arc and Nero looked at each other, and together they looked at the girl.

"Knight King, you have a point!"

The two said in unison.

"Hmph, declare in advance that Yu is just for the performer, the performer!"

"Me too, just for the contractor."

The two girls talked to each other like this, and sat down at the table together awkwardly, finding a place that was the farthest away from each other.

“……”

Artoria and I looked at each other and smiled.

I secretly gave her a thumbs up under me, and I managed to win her a slap in the eye.

————

Breakfast was made quickly and in a very typical British style.

When the food is served, the aroma is immediately overflowing, and it is extremely tempting.

Woo –

At the same moment, Joan of Arc and Nero's eyes lit up, and they both sat down beside me with their plates and knives and forks in the wind.

"Don't worry, the food is still there, just eat slowly."

Seeing that the two girls were impatient, I thought they were also gluttons like Artoria, so I couldn't help but laugh.

"What, Yu Ke has wanted to feed the performer for a long time, and today he finally got his wish. Come on, player, open your mouth, ah—taste this toast! ”

Nero smiled and took a slice of toast with a fork and brought it to my lips as it should.
