Chapter 048: Norman Shipment
Atalanta, or Atalanta, Atta, or Tarcat, is a well-known Greek hero, and this is Roy's servant in the promised world of Neverland.
Roy's mission is to fulfill the Servant's wishes, and the holy relic that summons the Servant is the corresponding world.
In this world where ghosts are kept in captivity, there are many servants who can get in touch with each other, and Atalanta, as the protector of children, is naturally the easiest to respond to the call.
Her ultimate wish is to create a "world where all children grow up surrounded by love."
Of course, that's when there is the Great Holy Grail.
Roy only has a Holy Grail with a specific summoning and traversing function, and the Heroic Spirit knows it before it is summoned, and to be able to respond is to understand that it has to be achieved without the Great Holy Grail.
This time, Atalanta just wants to save all the food children in captivity in this world, so that they can "grow up surrounded by love".
There's a lot of leeway.
Once crossed, the two appeared in the wild, and with the help of Atalanta's jungle survival experience and high martial arts, they successfully found the farm and climbed the high wall.
When Roy was about to continue his investigation after the meal, he happened to meet Norman who happened to come up on the high wall, and this was the previous incident.
For now, Roy remains hidden on the high walls, while Atalanta follows Norman.
At this time, he had already cleaned up, and after "saying goodbye" to the children of the "orphanage", he calmly followed his "mother" towards the gate of the orphanage.
The farm as a whole is a hexagonal building that can be divided into six areas plus a center. Five of the areas are five orphanages, and the last area and center is the headquarters, where the ghosts, the superior "grandmothers" of the "mothers" of the superintendents and the backup mothers of the superintendents are inhabited, and serve as a training and logistics center.
The main gate leads to the central area.
There, the edible children brought in under the name of "adoption" are slaughtered, packaged, and shipped.
The two of them walked unhurriedly towards the building.
"You're not going to run away, I knew it from the beginning." Isabella recounted calmly.
Norman is no longer paralyzed at this time, but can finally smile in front of "Mom".
"Not necessarily, Mom, I've long since given up being a good boy. Before the last minute of the shipment, I could have escaped. β
Isabella smiled, as if not taking it seriously, and with Norman's calmness, the two stopped talking and continued to walk towards the door.
Finally, the iron fence door opened, and Norman calmly walked towards the truck.
Last time, it was in this truck that he secretly saw Kony killed by a ghost.
Isabella came to a nearby door with a light on
"It's over here, here's the room."
A richly decorated room appears in front of Norman.
The first thought that popped into his mind was, "Are all the ghosts' slaughterhouses so comfortable?" Is this to reduce the struggle when slaughtering and make the meat better? β
Shaking his head, throwing out the idea of Bai Zuo who didn't know where it came from, Norman recalled the appearance of Kony when he was shipped, apparently Kony was killed and loaded on the side of the truck, and this room here should not be for slaughter.
Could it be that the ghost in charge of slaughtering hasn't come yet, so that's why I'm asked to wait for a while?
Before he could ask, Isabella who had brought him had already moved out of the way, and in the room, a man in a white suit with a smile on his face greeted Isabella with a smile:
"I'm sorry, I came a little early."
Isabella was not surprised at the appearance of the man opposite in the room, but nodded slightly in response, and began to introduce to Norman:
"Norman, this is Mr. Latori, your new father."
The young man known as Lattori laughed:
"Our age gap is not yet high enough for him to call me Daddy. Just call me Peeta.
If you can, I hope you will participate in my research. β
Standing in front of the two, Pita Lattori is the 36th head of the Lattori family, the leader of the human side who maintains the ghost world and the human world.
Since he betrayed his naΓ―ve brother about 15 years ago, the 35th generation leader of James, who sympathized with the food child and even wanted to liberate the food child, he cooperated with the ghost to establish the Ξ7214 experimental farm in order to maintain the authority of his new family owner, in order to breed higher quality food children.
In order to experiment, he needs to constantly mobilize edible children with different characteristics from various farms as test subjects, and Norman, who has been scoring perfect in the test for a long time, is suitable as an experimental object for experiments that strengthen the brain and make it more delicious.
That's why he came in person this time.
This "shipment" is not a "shipment", but a transfer.
Move from one village to another, experiment with new methods and then sell them to the ghosts.
Isn't it a matter of killing multiple birds with one stone to let this edible child die a few years later, and also make buyers more satisfied with the taste and nutrition of the food, and strengthen their own right to speak.
Touched by her kindness, Pita Latori lovingly extended her hand to Norman and waited for him to shake his hand.
Norman lowered his head, and after a moment, he slowly lifted it up, revealing a different kind of smile:
"So this guy is in charge? Can we begin, our fight back? β
Before the two adults could figure out what Norman meant, a burst of Lingzi condensed behind Peeta, and a green figure appeared behind him, and slapped Peeta on the back of the neck, no longer giving him a chance to speak, and directly knocked him unconscious.
Then he slid up behind Isabella and instantly subdued her, pinned her to the ground, and covered her mouth with one hand.
It was only after she had completed these movements that Peeta's body fell to the ground.
"Don't move, or you'll break your neck."
Atalanta, dressed in green, whispered in Isabella's ear and threatened.
After the initial attempt, Isabella realized that she was no match for the elusive person in front of her, so she stopped struggling and let the other party hold her hostage, thinking of countermeasures in her head.
And Atalanta didn't care about Isabella, she had already notified the beginning of the operation with the unique communication magic between the master and the servant.
Moments later, a diamond-shaped block unfolded in the room, and between the blocks, the space was displaced, and a shuttle door opened, and a boy of about twelve years old walked through the portal and appeared in the room.
An advanced application of the displacement magic unique to the Undsworth home, Space Displacement.
The person who can use this magic is of course the current lord of Atalanta, the orthodox heir of the Undsworth family, Roy Undsworth.
