Although the system's voice ended, it continued to echo in Wu Yue's ears.

I really don't know why, but Wu Yue is no longer averse to women's bodies...

Or... why not just make it a permanent conversion?

"Hey Artoria, do you know I only have a few months left before I become a man?"

Wu Yue suddenly asked, his tone in a way that was hard to describe.

Artoria was somewhat puzzled, but still replied.

"I know, what's wrong?"

"I have a physical ability that triggers every so often, giving me several options to choose from: whether to be a woman for life or for a short period of time."

Wu Yue looked down at Artoria in the quilt and continued speaking.

"I used to be quite resistant to the consequences of having a woman's body, but some things have happened recently that have changed my mind. I've started to think that being a woman for life isn't so bad; in some ways, it's really much more convenient than being a man. But deep down... there's still a voice telling me not to change... What do you think, Artoria?"

Artoria sensed the confusion in Wu Yue's tone and realized it was a serious matter, so she stopped overthinking and began to consider it carefully.

After a long while, Artoria also poked her head out of the covers, and the two looked at each other face to face.

"Whether you become a woman or not, I will treat you with the same attitude I have now. I will not betray you, nor will I neglect you, because I love you as much as you love me, Wu Yue. This is my true feeling deep down."

Artoria said gently, her beautiful eyes looking directly at the woman she loved, and who loved her in return.

Wu Yue froze, staring at Artoria for a long time... his eyes stung, and he suddenly felt like crying...

I have this inexplicable feeling of resentment...

"Damn it... I never thought that you, Artoria, who usually looks so serious, earnest, and like a typical straight woman, could say such sweet nothings... You idiot, I'm about to cry... I'm so unwilling... I should be the one saying these things... You bastard, you bastard, you bastard, you bastard..."

Artoria felt a warm feeling in her heart at Wu Yue's words, a warmth so profound that she would not hesitate to give her life for him at this moment.

Artoria was also convinced that the other person felt the same way.

There was no answer; instead, she reached out her soft, white hand and gently stroked Wu Yue's beautiful cheek under the bright moonlight.

Wu Yue made up his mind and said this to the system in his mind.

[I choose option two: gender swap, to play as Artoria (Lancer) in Fate/Grand Order].

Chapter 212 The War of Five Dynasties Officially Begins! Who Must Be Conquered?!

Two days passed quickly. On the morning of the third day, Vermouth rubbed her dizzy head and smoothed her messy, wavy, silver-white hair.

I opened the door with a yawn, intending to go to the bathroom to wash my face, but as soon as I entered the living room, I saw a person standing in the middle of the living room.

The Lion King

This is a person dressed in a full set of silver-white knight armor, with a large white cloak on his back and a lion helmet, which adds a touch of kingly demeanor compared to the blue and white battle dress style.

Their physical condition is at its best, and their spirit, physical strength, and energy are all at their peak.

She has thus grown into a tall, mature woman. It can be said that she has completely shed her girlish innocence and has the demeanor of a domineering British female CEO.

This person is Wu Yue.

"This is the third time already... Is it really necessary to do this every day...?"

Vermouth looked at Wu Yue standing in the living room, sighed, ignored him, turned and went into the bathroom, closing the door behind her.

Wu Yue took a deep breath and removed the lion helmet from her head, revealing a stunningly beautiful and mature woman's face. Her cheeks were flushed, and she looked refreshed.

She wore a crown on her long golden hair, and a small golden cross hung on her bangs.

After patting his face, Wu Yue walked to the full-length mirror in the living room, took out his phone, and started taking selfies.

He struck a cool pose, displaying a sharp and imposing figure with a strikingly beautiful face.

The phone flashed continuously. After taking the picture, Wu Yue posted it on Tieba.

The reply came very quickly.

"Wife, wife! Please whip me!"

"Here you are! Wu Yue, did you re-dye your hair and wear colored contacts after cosplaying Esdeath, and then cosplay Artoria the Lion King? You look so cool!"

"Are you kidding me?! The person upstairs can't even tell the difference?! This is definitely not how she played Esdeath! The facial features have subtle changes after comparison! Wu Yue must have gained a new power!"

"Damn... Wu Yue himself plays Artoria, which is one thing, but there's already an Artoria in the family. Now there's another one, this one with the Holy Lance in the Lion King form. Why not just change his name to Artoria Yue Pendra Wu?"

"My wife needs my help! Please pick her!"

"Posting selfies for three consecutive days, what's wrong with Wu Yue today? It's so fucking weird."

"Holy crap... As expected, besides Space Policewoman Artoria, the coolest outfit has to be this Lion King. This outfit is truly divine, the lion helmet, the fur around the helmet... I'm so envious..."

"I just want to know, how many Artorias are there?"

"Wife, wife! Can you go fight Artoria again?!"

Wu Yue liked each of the comments, then turned off her phone, satisfied.

Their inner vanity was greatly satisfied.

"Whoo~"

Meanwhile, Artoria slowly woke up, groggily reaching out to touch the spot next to her, but didn't sense anyone familiar.

"Wu Yue?"

After calling out a few times without receiving a response, Artoria rubbed her eyes, sat up, and looked around.

"Wu Yue?"

"I'm here, I'm here."

Wu Yue responded, and then the sound of armor clashing rang out. Wu Yue jogged into Artoria's room.

Wearing a lion helmet and a large white cloak.

Artoria smiled helplessly and stretched.

"Why is it this outfit again? How much do you like it? Haha... Hmm... I'm a little hungry..."

"Then get up and wash your face first. Vermouth and I will make breakfast now."

As Wu Yue spoke, with a thought, the silver-white battle armor materialized and disappeared, leaving only the classic blue bodysuit with gold-trimmed floral embellishments and some small silver-white armor pieces on his body.

Then he left Artoria's room and headed towards the kitchen.

Soon, Wu Yue finished cooking with Vermouth and then went to wake up the others one by one.

Illya, Konan, and Muzan all looked dazed, constantly rubbing their eyes and yawning.

During the dinner, Muzan asked a question.

"Master, you will maintain this from now on..."

"—cough—cough—"

Wu Yue cleared his throat, interrupting Muzan's question, and glanced slightly at Artoria, who was eating meat with gusto beside him.

Muzan's expression turned somewhat downcast, but he still continued to ask.

"Will you maintain this form from now on? Although... I don't really mind... but... I feel it's too sexy... and doesn't quite match the original petite and cute image of the master..."

Wu Yue then looked at the others, whose expressions were not much different from Muzan's.

Wu Yue closed his eyes and thought about it carefully. It seemed that he had been maintaining the Lion King form for two days, and it was time to change back to his original form, the one that everyone was most familiar with.

With a thought, his body gradually shrank, from 1.71 meters to 1.54 meters.

She transforms back into her original form as Artoria Sader.

Wearing a black fitted suit.

After finishing their meal, Vermouth and Minami went to work together.

Feeling bored at home, they went out together and found jobs as waitresses.

Muzan and Illya were watching TV at home, Wu Yue was taking a shower, and Artoria was honing her swordsmanship on the balcony as usual.

Something's been strange lately. Even though the national war is supposed to start at 11 p.m. tonight, no one seems to feel the slightest bit nervous.

It's like something perfectly normal; that's what everyone says online. To sum it up in one sentence...

"What's so interesting about it? No matter what kind of war it is, the Celestial Empire always wins. It's like slaughtering melons and bullying weaklings."

The people of the Celestial Empire are most proud, while the people of the Cherry Blossom Country seem rather sarcastic.

In the evening, Vermouth and Konan returned. Around 11 p.m., everyone sat down together for dinner, waiting for the arrival of the national war.

However, during the dinner, Vermouth suddenly looked at Wu Yue, stared at him for a while, and then looked at Artoria, asking a crucial question.

"How far has your relationship progressed? Has anything been...?"
