Chapter 171: Cocktail Party
After Wu Jian returned, there seemed to be a big hand pushing things forward, and Rider suddenly came to the castle.
"Whew!"
Rider is no Caster, and his methods of breaking enchantments can only be brutal. After the barrier supported by Ellie was violently destroyed, Ellie felt a wave of dizziness.
"Ellie!"
Emiya Kiritsugu hurriedly helped Arie.
"Kiritsu, it's fine." Ellie put her hand on the hands that surrounded her, and then looked into the distance: "It's just, come in so roughly, I don't know who Lu Dao is?" β
Faced with this problem, Emiya Kiritsugu set his eyes on Wu Jian, who was as stable as Mount Tai, and analyzed: "Wu Jian has just come back, and I think that other heroic spirits will not know the Dao so quickly-if they know the Dao, it will probably be Archer." Then the only people who will come over during this period are Caster and Rider, who are mainly heroic spirits. But Caster's words can't be used in this way, then"
"Hey! So what's the trouble to do, just go out and take a look? β
Nero rudely interrupted Emiya's analysis, and although Emiya Kiritsugu wanted to set a strategy, Nero ran away after saying that, and Saber followed him.
ββ
The helpless Emiya Kiritsugu could only look at Wu Jian, but Wu Jian picked up the teacup and drank the tea, and he could only let Ellie go out to meet Rider together.
"What? Aren't you going along? β
Seeing that Emiya Kiritsugu didn't go with him, Wu Jian put down the teacup and asked.
"I'm only fit to act in the shadows."
Emiya Kiritsugu just replied lightly, and then he was about to walk out.
"I really don't understand you, is it really good to make yourself like this for the sake of justice!!?"
Emiya Kiritsugu didn't speak, but he couldn't speak. He really didn't understand why Wu Jian would think that his actions were for justice, so he showed an expression of what this person was saying, and there was a hint of anger in that expression.
"Don't look at me like that, I'm not denying you justice. On the contrary, fighting for justice is something that should be promoted. Wu Jian spread his hands and replied with a smile, but he quickly withdrew his smile and said seriously: "It's just that I only advocate doing what I can." Especially when the gap between ideals and one's own strength is too huge, it is easy for justice to deteriorate. β
"I don't understand what you're talking about."
Wei Gong cut his head and left. Although Wu Jian didn't think it could make him understand his words, he couldn't help but sigh when he saw him like this.
"Alas~~~ Why make yourself so miserable?"
Wu Jian shook his head, and also walked out of the house with Jian Tong Sakura in his arms. By the time he got to the front door, Rider had already greeted them.
βRiRiderοΌβ
As soon as he saw Wu Jian come out, Webb left and shrank behind Rider. Seeing him like this, Wu Jian only had a residual thought for a while-is he so terrible? I didn't do anything to you
"Oh~~ Isn't this Wu Jian? Are your injuries already healed? We are planning to have a drinking party, how about you come along? β
Contrary to Weber, seeing Wu Jian, Rider shouted excitedly, and despite Weber's opposition, he vigorously invited Wu Jian.
"Oh? Can I also participate in the drinking party between kings? Wu Jian asked with a smile.
"What are you talking about? You're the man who can conquer this tyrant, of course you're qualified! Moreover, this is nothing more than an exchange between Heroic Spirits! Hey, Saber, isn't there a place to have a drinking party? β
Rider urged, but Ellie wouldn't let him come to her home again, so she found an open space in the garden for the spirits to stay.
"Hey, such a big castle, is it the only one?" Although Rider complained, he simply sat down on the spot and beckoned to the others: "Come on, don't stand there, sit down quickly!" β
"What the hell do you want to do?"
Saber was reluctant, but the other Heroes had already sat down, and she could only sit down and ask Rider what he was doing.
"Don't be so nervous, Saber. I'm not here to fight each other with swords, but to fight it out with wine! Knight King, Tyrant, and Wu Jian, I won't let you go tonight! β
"Interesting, I accept!"
Since it was a challenge, Saber didn't have a reason not to accept it, and she could see that Rider didn't have that kind of murderous aura.
Rider smiled, then glanced at the crowd and said, "Although I said that there was a real battle in the name of the king, it would be better to call it a Holy Grail War than a Holy Grail Q&A." The question of who among us is the best person to receive the Holy Grail, just ask the glass! β
Rider patted the barrel beside him, then changed his serious face and said jokingly, "By the way, there seems to be a man who claims to be the king." β
"Bastard, some of your words aren't a joke."
In response to Rider's words, a golden light rose from the ground, and that sharp gaze penetrated, making Saber, Ellie and Webb stiff - unlike Wu Jian after the first battle, Gilgamesh was full of fierce momentum now.
βArcherοΌ What are you going to be here! β
Saber asked sharply, although there were a lot of Heroes gathered here, but Gilgamesh's fierce momentum really didn't look like he had come to drink.
"Ah, he was met on the way here, and I happened to let him come with him. It's just that he's walking, so he's late, Jin Shanshan, you don't want to look like that, we're here to drink tonight! β
Rider was a peacemaker, and Gilgamesh put away his fierce momentum, but he still refused to sit down, and kept staring at Wu Jian.
"Humph! I heard that the king's banquet was going to be held, so why did a fake thing get in? β
"Don't worry that much, do you? He's also a Heroic Spirit, and he's Nero's master, so other masters can come along. β
Rider set his sights on Ellie who was holding Kirizakura Sakura in her arms, but how dare Ellie drink with these guys who don't play cards according to common sense? So she hurriedly shook her head and glared at Webb, motioning for Webber to let Rider back down. But Webb didn't have the courage to do so, and he shook his hand desperately behind Rider.
"Forget it, let's get started!"
In order to make the party go smoothly, Rider took advantage of this moment to smash open the barrel, scooped up the wine with a wooden spoon, took a sip of his own, and then handed the wooden spoon to Saber.
Saber was just about to take the wooden spoon when Wu Jian interjected.
"Hey, I said Rider, it's rude for you to hand over your drink to a girl like this, isn't it?"
For this sentence, the first person to react was of course Saber, but she didn't snatch the wooden spoon, but directly reasoned with Wu Jian.
"Wu Jian! Are you underestimating me? After becoming a knight, I had already abandoned my identity as a woman! Before you treat me as a woman, you should be sure to think of me as a knight! So I want you to take that sentence back! β
Saber's angry words rang out in everyone's ears, and although she didn't show any emotion, her gloomy face said it all.
However, Saber's attitude angered another woman, Nero, but Nero did not show it at all. Although it was not shown, the words still had to be said
"Saber, are you underestimating women?"
"What are you talking about? It should be Wu Jian who underestimates women! β
Saber swiped his right hand, as if to knock Nero's words away.
"Hah!" Nero chuckled and asked in a deep voice, "Why do you want to deny your femininity?" Do you think that women cannot be knights and become kings? β
Nero's words seemed to turn into a sharp arrow that stabbed Saber, causing her to shake a little, and said excitedly, "What are you talking about?" I'm not a knight, aren't you an emperor? β
"Then why do you want to deny yourself as a woman?"
"You and I"
Nero's question again caused Saber to stammer, unable to say a word, and finally turned into a moan.
"Humph! After all, the least women are people like you! After saying this, Nero stood up, put his hand on his towering chest, looked down at Saber and said, "I am proud to be a woman! Even if this body is not a king, even if it is a grass people, Yu will not deny anything, no matter what he does, Yu will do it with his head held high! β
Nero's proclamation dwarfed Saber's eyes, as if Nero had a dazzling light on her. And Nero also straightened her chest as she said, making the already towering chest look even more erect. Nero's hand was still on his chest, and his gaze from Saber was in line with Saber's flat chest.
"I see."
"What do you mean by that!?"
Saber asked through gritted teeth, as if to say you tell me clearly. The momentum even made the men present shrink involuntarily, but not only did it not have any effect on Nero, but it made Nero laugh.
"Because your boobs are so small, so small that you can't find out that you are a woman even if you take a shower together, that's why you desperately deny your identity as a woman, right?"
"Yes"
As if hearing the sound of being bitten, Saber exclaimed excitedly, "This has nothing to do with the breasts!! β
Saber put his hand on the ground, and one of his originally crossed feet stepped on the ground, glaring at Nero in a half-kneeling and half-standing position.
(Seeing Saber's reaction so violently, Nero seems to have been teasing Saber a lot during this time.) Wu Jian squinted at Nero and guessed - although they had only been together for a short time, with Nero's very appetizing personality, Wu Jian had guessed about the same.
This time, Saber can be said to have spilled out the anger of being harassed by Nero these days, and everyone present was frightened by Saber's unexpected emotions and was stunned for a while.
The scene suddenly became quiet.
