Chapter 210 Act Seven

It is not a big village, with only about a dozen households, but when seeing a very faint fire in a dim wilderness, Fujimaru Tachika seems like a lifetime away.

The hospitality of the kind villagers and the fragrant cooked food made Tachika Fujimaru almost shed tears.

But different from Fujimaru Tachika's excitement, Caster has been extremely vigilant since entering the village.

"What's the matter, Menechel."

The girl raised her head and scanned her surroundings vigilantly. She tilted her head and lifted her hood slightly, showing her sharp ear to Fujimaru Tachika.

"They will drive me away as a goblin." She put her hood back on and said calmly, "The appearance of a village means that you are approaching a town. I don't want to attract the attention of the Knights of the Round Table so early."

Since it was the Holy Grail War, there should be six Masters besides himself, and the first target was naturally the Knights of the Round Table scattered all over the place.

Fujimaru Tateka nodded thoughtfully.

"Then let's leave here tonight." Fujimaru Tachika asked tentatively.

"Staying for one night is actually nothing. I think you like it here." Caster shook his head: "After all, you are not a Servant, you need to eat and rest."

After hesitating for a moment, Caster continued: "If you really want to eat cooked food, you can also tell me—after all, the only way to dispose of goblin corpses is to burn them to ashes."

Hearing Caster's words, Fujimaru Tachika immediately shuddered, recalling the short and ugly green-skinned humanoids he had encountered along the way, and a nausea suddenly came to his throat.

"Ahaha, I'm actually not that picky. The bread you brought is enough to satisfy your hunger." Fujimaru Tachika smiled reluctantly. She felt physically uncomfortable eating goblins.

"Go to sleep. It's the same when you leave tomorrow." Caster settled the matter. She gently closed the door, and pulled a stool to sit on the edge of the bed and read a book: "If there is any accident, I will call you." wake you up."

Fujimaru Tachika lay obediently on the bed, but her eyes were open and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

"Can't sleep, do you want me to use magic to help you sleep?"

Caster bowed her head and the rustling sound of her flipping through the books echoed in the quiet room as she spoke.

"No." Fujimaru Tachika denied, and after a pause she turned her head to look at Caster, at this moment she finally saw Caster's face clearly: "It's just that I think you must be very distressed if you hide like this, Caster, so in When it's just the two of us, can you show your true face a little?"

From the conversations of the villagers, she figured out that the locals hated goblins, so Caster, who has goblin-like ears, must have been affected a little, right?
——The feeling of being discriminated against by others is not good, and Fujimaru Tachika has a deep understanding, although she does not have a good impression of those ugly goblins, so she also wants to comfort Caster a little.

But after hearing her words, Caster squinted his eyes at Fujimaru Tachika, his original red pupils gradually changed color, one blue and one golden pupil stared at Fujimaru Tachika until cold sweat broke out.

"Don't play tricks." Suddenly, Caster let out a sneer, with a gloomy sneer on her face: "You want to trick me into trusting me to break the contract for you? Don't be so naive."

"No, I'm not... I just think you're beautiful and want to see more."

Caster ignored Fujimaru Tachika with a cold face, and continued to flip through the books in his hand.

The neglected Fujimaru Tateka closed her mouth, she stared at Caster's face and felt that her eyelids were getting heavy.

After hearing the gradual and steady breathing around her, Caster, who was reading quietly, slowly closed the book in her hand, and her eyes of different colors looked complicatedly at the sleeping Gotomaru Tachika's face.

"is it beautiful……"

——I can't forget the shock in the eyes of Arthur and the other knights when she showed this appearance for the first time, and the indelible disgust hidden under the shock.

She pinched the flesh on both sides of her cheeks, and slowly lifted her hood, her elf-like ears were already stained a little blush.

'no lie'

She thought, she is a strange foreigner who still thinks she is beautiful even though she has seen her fairy appearance.

'Actually, I was tempted, but I didn't say it - after all, it's important to hurry. '

……

Amid the violent shaking and a few faint anxious calls, Fujimaru Tachika only felt that her foot was stepped into the air, and the sense of weightlessness caused her consciousness that had already floated to the sky to fall back to her body in the next moment.

After being forced to wake up, Fujimaru Tachika, who couldn't sleep until she woke up naturally, opened her hazy eyes and saw Caster's slightly anxious face.

The first time he noticed Caster's face without any cover at this time, but the next moment Fujimaru Tateka was pulled up from the bed by Caster.

Then she finally discovered the abnormality outside the window.

There is already a little light in the pale sky, but this ray of light is insignificant in the vast expanses of fire.

Small creaks and human screams came from outside the door.

"This is……"

Faced with such a hellish scene, Fujimaru Tateka babbled, but no one answered her. Caster just silently pulled Fujimaru Tachika to trot all the way in the direction where there was no fire.

When Fujimaru Tachika came back to her senses, she had already been dragged and ran for a certain distance, but there was no villager around her except Caster with a serious face.

"Menechel!"

Fujimaru Tachika called again, but the other party's footsteps did not stop.

"We've been attacked by goblins here." Caster said, "For the time being, I've blocked our aura with magic."

"Then they..."

"The elves just think that hunting like this is more interesting. Therefore, there should be no third person who can survive." Caster seemed to have guessed what Fujimaru Tachika would say, and she said, "But I can't make a move—it's almost dawn .”

dawn...

Fujimaru Tachika was taken aback for a moment, unable to figure out what the relationship between the two was.

Caster, who seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, clicked his tongue and stopped speaking, but he didn't dare to let go of Fujimaru Tachika's hand for a moment—she was afraid that the girl's blood would rush back to save those who were used to procrastinate. The abandoned son of the fairy footsteps.

Suddenly, Minechel, who was running ahead, moved her ears, and she grasped it out of thin air with her free hand, and a small collection of manuscripts appeared in her hand.

Chong——!
When the spear collided with the book cover, sparks burst out, but Caster was overturned by the transmitted force. Fortunately, Fujimaru Tachika, who reacted quickly, hugged him in his arms.

The white knight on a high-backed horse retracted his gun and trampled towards the two of them again.

Caster looked at the other side expressionlessly, the book in her hand moved automatically without wind, and went over the five blank pages at the front, and came to the sixth page depicting the bright red twisted incantation.

The spell slowly lost its color, but before the magic engraved on it erupted, the knight retracted his spear vigilantly.

Then a neutral heroic voice came through the helmet.

"Master?"

When hearing the voice, Fujimaru Tachika noticed that Caster's face suddenly darkened.

It's just that the dense sound of horseshoes made her give up her plan to continue attacking.

The knight on the white horse stared at Caster for a long time with deep meaning. Finally, when a solemn knight rushed to her side, he said in a low voice, "Master Rider..."

"Continue to hunt down the goblins that entered Camelot."

The solemn knight who received the order ignored the two standing there, and led the follow-up knights to continue towards the village.

"Now……"

Rider stopped abruptly in the middle of her words, she looked towards the rising sun in the sky, and quickly fell silent.

She frowned and regretted that she didn't leave a few solemn knights behind, and now she definitely couldn't stay by their side.

With a horse belly, Rider rushed forward, and when passing by the two, Rider lowered his voice and said quickly:
"I'll come to you."
