What? My cheat code is making my own gold coins explode?

"Of course, Orion."

Chapter 75: You may not have a wife, but you still have me (just kidding).

As night fell, the moon was no longer hanging in the sky, the stars shone brightly, and a deathly silence reigned.

Orion, who had stopped Zhao Si and Leonardo da Vinci, was now slumped on the grass, gazing up at the unchanging starry sky.

When he turned his head to look, he happened to see Zhao Si and Leonardo da Vinci sitting together, which made Orion raise an eyebrow and reveal a meaningful smile.

Good heavens, things are progressing so fast? When Orion overheard Nemo and the other sailors gossiping, he realized that these two were really hostile when they first met.

However, given the abilities this foreigner has displayed, if I were gender-swapped, I might actually fall for him.

"Orion, I can vaguely sense what you're thinking."

"Eh? Real or fake?"

Orion answered instinctively, and when he looked into Zhao Si's eyes, he felt that what the other man said seemed to be true.

Does this guy also have the ability to read minds?

"And, what do you want to say? Say it as soon as possible."

"If you don't want to talk, I'm leaving."

It's better to leave the task of talking to a burly man to Fujimaru Ritsuka himself. Zhao Si simply sprang to his feet.

The little Leonardo da Vinci beside him also got up. Although the celestial phenomena were manipulated by Zeus at will, a little research could still find the magic circuits used in the previous celestial magic.

Magic tricks based on the geocentric model and using celestial bodies as a circuit are truly amazing.

"Let's go, let's go! If you want to say anything to repay me, you'd better hurry up and do it!"

Little Leonardo da Vinci understood the magic circuit of the starry sky, but couldn't understand why this was such a fuss. It was just thanking someone for helping him shoot through the Lostbelt Lover in the sky... Oh, it was indeed a bit of a fuss.

"It's a rather complicated feeling... but thank you anyway, Zhao Si!"

Orion quickly got up from the grass and bowed deeply to Zhao Si.

Is this how the Greeks expressed their gratitude? Oh well, since this is Type-Moon, let's just quickly separate the Earth and the Moon.

“You’re not the type to back down from a fight, are you, Orion?”

Zhao Si asked.

If Orion really didn't want to continue, he could simply stay on Hestia with Artemis's terminal and not go anywhere else.

However, it was the sense of responsibility that every Servant should have that drove him to act.

A Grand Archer, who doesn't rely on affinity or special attacks, but only on that romantic relationship in the pan-human history, drives Orion to shoot down Artemis in the Lostbelt.

“I am sure I can do it. After all, the other party is not the real Artemis, but an enemy that is blocking our way.”

Orion put on a stern face, his expression serious and earnest.

"But you treated the Moon Goddess of the Lostbelt as a substitute for food, and even dated her for a while. Be careful that when you go back, the real person from Pan-Human History will come knocking on your door."

"Don't do this kind of thing!"

Orion's serious expression instantly turned into panic; it seemed he had been right, this guy really had started eating meal replacements.

Good heavens, are all Greeks so open-minded about both meat and vegetables?

"Now that you've said your thanks, go and support Fujimaru Ritsuka properly. He is the true host of Chaldea."

Zhao Si issued an order to leave and walked toward Freedom Gundam, with Little Da Vinci following closely behind.

Zhao Si was quite pleased that Orion didn't cause any trouble for him over this matter.

It saves time, effort, and worry, but it makes it difficult for friendly forces to go all out, resulting in a less satisfying battle.

"If there's nothing else, then see you. It would be impolite to say anything more."

"Is chatting with me boring? I'm a handsome Greek man, after all..."

"How boring, I'd rather have a Da Vinci cigarette."

"Ouch! That's so hurtful!"

Orion feigned sadness as he watched Zhao Si lift little Leonardo da Vinci into the cockpit of the Freedom Gundam, then shouted:

"Zhao Si—thank you—for freeing Artemis—!"

Since his lover's relationship ended at the hands of another, Orion felt less guilty and sincerely thanked Zhao Si.

This way, there's no need to commit suicide with Artemis; one can wait until they've completed their duties as a crown before returning to their throne.

Then, I can properly fawn over Artemis, phew—easy!

Orion stood with his hands on his hips, watching the Freedom Gundam rise into the night sky without changing his expression. The wind blew his hair around, and his mood, like the gust of wind, became much lighter.

It felt like I told the other person something, but it also felt like I didn't say anything at all. It was just something we both understood, and then it was over.

Thinking of this, Orion lay back down on the grass, gazing up at the unchanging starry sky and the Freedom Gundam streaking across the blue flame.

"Should we give him a hint? We're all watching." From the woods behind, Mandecardo gave Fujimaru Ritsuka a look, silently conveying his meaning.

“No need. Since Orion didn’t fight with Zhao Si, we don’t need to worry about it.” Fujimaru Ritsuka returned the look with her eyes. Although she didn’t know if her eyes could convey so much information, she believed the other party understood.

"Senior, I think... we can talk."

Mashu raised her hand in response.

"It's night now, senior, please go and rest. We will take care of the shift change."

Only Goldrov and Fujimaru Ritsuka were humans who came to Demos Island; the rest were Servants—Mash felt that she, wearing the pseudo-spirit armor, was also a Servant.

"Okay, Mashu, don't push yourself."

Fujimaru Ritsuka spoke up, patted Mash on the shoulder, and then looked up at the Freedom Gundam in the sky.

Fujimaru Ritsuka sincerely wishes Zhao Si all the best.

At the same time, Zhao Si shivered, feeling as if someone was talking about him.

"What's wrong."

Little Da Vinci, who was sitting next to Zhao Si, asked if he could clearly describe any subtle movements the other person made, but unfortunately there were none.

"What are you thinking about, you rascal... Well, I felt like someone was talking about me just now, and it wasn't my imagination."

"Hmm, what kind of longing can travel faster than Mach 9 in the atmosphere?"

"It's probably Fujimaru Ritsuka's concern."

"...I'm speechless about what you men are really like."

"If it were Fujimaru Ritsuka, I wouldn't mind. Thank goodness it wasn't Orion."

"Can you even pick and choose? No, this isn't about picking and choosing."

Zhao Si shook his head in resistance.

"Hmm, double standards, bad Zhao Si."

"I have never claimed to be a righteous person; it's just that my views are more in line with the general public's view of justice."

"They've already prepared an escape route for themselves? How cunning!"

"Every intelligent life form would have such cunning experiences, for example, the goddess of justice and scales on Astraea Island."

The journey took only two or three minutes before the Freedom Gundam flew back to Astraea Island.

Unlike the initial cover-up, the Freedom Gundam can now stand openly on the ground without needing to be thrown into the sea.

Zhao Si led Little Da Vinci out of the cockpit, and after landing on the ground, he immediately shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Astraea! I'm back!"

Chapter 76: Nighttime Storm (?)

A cry of "Astraea! I'm back!" nearly caused a blonde lady in the goddess's abode to twist her ankle.

Astraea had already gotten up and was ready to go out and see what was going on when she heard the roaring sound of the Freedom Gundam getting closer.

The moon goddess Artemis fell, and a great celestial magic altered the heavens, covering the entirety of Atlantis. Unless Astraea became deaf and mute, she would surely be able to see it.

Intuition told Astraea that the giant who pushed the moon goddess down must be Zhao Si himself.

However, the other party will have to return to this island sooner or later, so there's no need for me to rush to find them.

Then, when Zhao Sizhen returned, his loud shout completely silenced Astraea.

"You bastard! Why are you yelling so loudly? Don't you know it's nighttime?! Don't you want to sleep?!"

Astraea took off from her residence and headed towards Zhao Si's location, replying as she went.

"Goddess, you're speaking with a strong voice right now, that means you haven't slept."

"You woke me up!"

Astraea, the goddess of justice and scales, approached Zhao Si with a resentful expression.

Astraea realized she had to tilt her head back to make eye contact with the other person.

However, after his stroll around, the other party seemed to have lost his sense of propriety and offended the goddess's dignity, so Astraea decided to leave him there for the night:

"Go back to your room and sleep first!"

"Okay, we'll fight again after you wake up."

"If you lose, you will become my property forever."

"There's no way I can lose. On the contrary, I'm going to take you away."

"If you can do it, then give it a try! Heh, I'll try again tomorrow. Time to go back to sleep!"

Although Astraea still looked displeased, a slight smile appeared on her lips.

As she flew back, the previously silent Leonardo da Vinci finally came to his senses.

These two are really that familiar with each other? But it's not surprising that Zhao Si stayed on Astraea Island for half a year before Chaldea.

Little Leonardo da Vinci opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but then realized that he didn't seem to need to say anything, so he nodded with an approving look and left with Zhao Si.
