In Type-Moon, it all starts with adopting Sakura.

Although she had made up her mind, Black Gun Dai's face was still slightly flushed. Mustering her courage, she lifted the tent flap and went inside. Once inside, Black Gun Dai looked around. She found the interior very clean; if it weren't for the outside, probably no one would imagine that someone would have kept the interior of a travel tent as neat as a regular room.

(Floros, Barbatos: We will.)

But none of that matters. The most important thing is that there's no one else in the room except for Black Gunner. Seeing this, Black Gunner really wanted to say, "This is truly a stroke of luck!"

Finally, Black Gun Daina's gaze settled on the makeshift wooden bed in the room. Hmm, it looked perfectly ordinary, but the thought of what might happen on it made her face turn even redder.

After all, I'll be all alone this time, and the thought of it is quite exciting.

Taking a deep breath, Black Gunner removed her armor, revealing her beautiful body hidden beneath her clothes. But just as she lifted the blanket to hide inside, an unexpected incident occurred.

"I'm sorry, Artoria, this place is full."

As soon as she lifted the covers, Meryl's face, radiating an infuriating smile, stared directly at Black Gunner, who had just taken off his armor and was about to get into bed. And this pervert was even more naked than Black Gunner at this moment, truly embodying the meaning of being completely naked.

This guy had been planning this ever since he and Rovi spent the night on the roof. The travel tent Gilgamesh had prepared for them was the perfect opportunity to sneak in, but she had accidentally forgotten about Black Lancer. She hadn't expected that someone as arrogant as Black Lancer would sneak in under the cover of darkness.

"Merlin from another world, what are you doing here, you bastard?!"

"Oh dear, I'd much rather hear you call me by my name, Merlin, than the disgraceful title of Merlin from another timeline. And what do I want to do? Isn't it obvious? Of course, it's a night raid~ I just didn't expect you to be thinking the same thing, Lily. But I thought that with your personality, you wouldn't do something like that in this situation."

"You...we're husband and wife, is it so hard to understand why you're here?" Seeing this guy actually appear here, Black Gun's initial shyness completely vanished. She didn't hold back and brought up their relationship, then pointed at Meryl lying on the bed and scolded, "Meryl, don't you know what shame is?"

"Shame? I've long since thrown that away," Melly said nonchalantly, looking at Black Gunner. "Fine, we can just do it together. After all, having concubines is pretty exciting..."

"You pervert, you've completely lost all shame!!"

"Don't pinch me there, it's so itchy, Artoria!"

The once quiet tent suddenly became lively.

……

"Meow?"

The sand sphinx lying beside the tent suddenly raised its head, looking curiously in the direction of its master's tent, sensing some commotion. Then, driven by the inherent curiosity of felines, it decided to go over and see what was happening.

As soon as it got up, Anna reached out and stroked its head, telling it to go back to sleep and not to worry about what was happening over there.

Back in Greece, she had heard far too many stories like this, stories of heroes' romantic escapades, and scenes that were definitely not suitable for underage cats to witness. If it went in like that, it would probably get a beating tonight, so Anna gave it a special reminder.

"Ha, still a man..."

She rested her head on a stone, looked up at the night sky, and closed her eyes.

Although the Sand Sphinx didn't quite understand what Anna was trying to say, it lost interest in going over once it sensed its master wasn't in the tent, so it continued to lie on the ground and sleep.

On the other hand, the reason why Lovi was not there was that he was busy comforting Ishtar, who had lost all her property and was in a half-dead state.

"It's all gone, everything's gone... My home is completely gone!!"

At this moment, she was like a mentally challenged goddess, stretching out her arms to hug Luo Wei's legs and crying bitterly. It could be said that she had completely abandoned any semblance of her image, just to play the victim and get more treasure from Luo Wei.

"Please stop crying, okay? Crying won't help in this situation, will it?"

"Yeah...crying won't help, but I still can't help wanting to cry...waaaaaah!!"

Upon thinking of this situation, Ishtar cried even more bitterly.

Don't wipe your nose on my pant leg!

Looking at this pathetic fellow, Luo Wei was speechless, and for the first time felt that he had met his match.

After all, you can't hit someone who's mentally challenged, and scolding them is useless. You can only pray that she has some self-respect.

When she saw her home being demolished, especially the gold being mixed with mud to build houses, and the jewels being used by Black Lancer Alter as a source of magic, Ishtar finally understood that the magic used by that dark tower was entirely provided by burning her own wealth.

Moreover, during the previous battle, Ishtar had cleverly planned to use her high mobility to deplete the tower's magic power before defeating her. Now, recalling that, she just wanted to slap herself a few times—it was all her own money that was being wasted!

Because he sensed that something was wrong with Ishtar, Lovi deliberately dug her out of the petrified state and tried to persuade this seemingly useless goddess. After all, she was also a fighting force, and it wouldn't do for her to just sink into despair like this. That's how this situation came about.

Initially, Ishtar wanted to demand compensation from Lancer Artoria, but after being repeatedly pierced by her holy lance, she realized she couldn't win and could only retreat into seclusion. She even had a sudden, outlandish idea of ​​making the refugees pay, but after careful consideration, she realized this was utterly impossible. Thus, Ishtar became a homeless, destitute goddess, forced to leave.

It wasn't until Rowe reminded her that even though her home was gone, she still had a tenth of the treasure in the Royal Treasury.

Once the matter is settled, it will be easy to make up for the loss with this ten percent of the treasure, and we can even rebuild it.

However, the thought of having to make up for her losses and work for nothing with all the treasure she had earned made Ishtar cry even harder. She then started clinging to Rowe's leg, demanding more money from him in all sorts of shameless ways.

After all, he previously said he had 20% of the wealth, so he can definitely add a little more.

"Alright, alright, stop crying. If you behave well enough later, how about I give you an extra 10%?"

He took a step forward, leaving a long drag mark on the ground as he dragged Ishtar. In the end, because he had no other choice, Rowe pretended to be in a difficult position and increased the price for her as compensation for Black Lancer.

Although this money was originally intended by King Gigi to bribe Ishtar.

"Really?!"

Upon hearing this, Ishtar's eyes suddenly lit up, and she immediately stopped crying and making a fuss. She then performed a Sichuan opera face-changing act, which gave Lovi a new understanding of this embarrassing goddess's ability to control her expressions.

"Really, you should get up first."

"Yay!!"

Upon hearing this, Ishtar immediately sprang to her feet, wiped away her tears, and showed no signs that she had just been crying.

"You're not allowed to lie to me!"

Ishtar looked at Lovi with slightly reddened eyes and said, "The punishment for deceiving the goddess is very severe."

"I know... but the premise is that you have to cooperate obediently, follow orders, and not be willful. Can you do all of that?"

Luo Wei said with some difficulty.

"Yes! As long as you give me the treasure, I can!"

Tempted by the treasure, Ishtar shamelessly made the promise.

"Alright, then we'll see how you perform."

Seeing her silly look, Luo Wei couldn't help but laugh, and then reached out to rub her head.

Although Ishtar felt that being patted on the head was somewhat beneath her dignity, she did not get angry when she thought of the 20% treasure, but instead gave a special reminder.

"If you go back on your word, I won't let you off the hook!"

Luo Wei smiled helplessly: "Okay, okay, how could a goddess as smart as you be fooled by humans?"

"You're right, how could I possibly be fooled by humans?"

Seeing that this fool not only didn't notice anything, but also seemed to have made a great profit and even forgot that his house had just been demolished, Luo Wei felt even more uneasy.

However, he didn't say it out loud. Seeing that she was alright, he prepared to go back first, since Ishtar's problem was now completely resolved.

Although he distrusted Ishtar's character, he believed that wealth held an attraction for her.

However, just as he took his first step...

"Ah!"

"Do you have a cold? Why don't you..."

Behind him, Ishtar seemed to sneeze suddenly because of the cold night. Just as Lovi was about to turn around and invite her to rest in the temporary tent for the night, he saw Ishtar sitting on a rock, looking at him with a gentle smile.

"I'm alright, Master. Can we talk some more?"

She asked with a smile and a gentle tone.

"What are you doing...?"

Seeing Ishtar's sudden and drastic change, Rowe was taken aback. He had thought that this guy was trying to take the opportunity to bargain with him and increase the reward.

However, he seemed to think of something the next moment, but he didn't say it. Instead, he sat down opposite her and nodded slightly.

"can."

"Thanks……"

Upon seeing that Lovi had agreed, Ishtar said with a smile.

Meanwhile, Barbatos and Floros, who had just been counting refugees and then squatting together counting stars, seemed extremely bored. Because they were Demon Pillars, they could only offer their services and pass the time by hiding to the side, ignoring the calls of Goetia and the other Demon Pillars.

"I don't think this can go on."

After glancing silently at the gem he had casually picked up, Rafe threw it off the cliff and nudged Barbatos, who was still playing nearby, with his elbow.

"What's wrong?"

Barbatos didn't really think it mattered. After all, he had always been Solomon's henchman and lackey, summoned to do errands when needed and sent back to slack off when not. Now, not only did he have the physical form of a Demon Pillar, but he could also stay by the King's side and actively find things for him to do. It was simply irresistible.

Rafe glanced at Barbatos, who was still playing Connect Four on the ground to the side. He looked at Barbatos like an old man looking at a good-for-nothing child, wishing he could hang the good-for-nothing up and give him a good beating.

"it's your turn."

At this point, Barbatos finished drawing his own pieces and gestured for Floros to place his.

However, at this moment, Rafe had already stood up, ignoring Barbatos's shouts, and stomped flat the simple chessboard.

"Fool, haven't you noticed? The king still seems to hold a grudge against us. Although the burning of human rights has been temporarily stopped, it doesn't mean the king will forgive us later."

I think it's alright.

Seeing his chessboard shattered by the sore loser Rafe, Barbatos was speechless. He looked at the rambling Floros and said, "Weren't we also rejected by the world and misunderstood by humanity? We were banished to the dark abyss, and only the King summoned us back. Now that we have new bodies and new lives, and the King no longer intends to bind us, isn't that good? I think the King's change is quite good. The King is still the King, and we are still his subjects. Isn't that enough?"

"Why can't you be a little more clever? Barbatos, are you heartless? Did you lose too much heart material and become stupid? Why can't you use your brain for a second? Stop thinking about those boring human games. Do you want to become a useless anime character like that good-for-nothing Romani?"

"Tch, why don't you say you've gone through several pairs of glasses playing StarCraft? Why can't I enjoy it too?" Barbatos retorted unhappily.

"Stubborn!" A slap landed on Barbatos's face. Then, after glancing back to make sure no one was around, Leif put his arm around Barbatos's neck, and the two whispered, "Look, we were the first to return to the King before the other Demon Pillars, and I even locked the other seventy doors from the outside. That proves our unwavering loyalty. Since that's the case, why don't we do more good deeds and continue to please the King to make up for our past mistakes?"

"Hmm, that makes a lot of sense. Please continue."

Barbatos pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"In the end, the Human Order Burning incident, though it looks like a fierce victory, actually has a KD of 0. After all, we intervened from the perspective of human history, and no one specifically died. Undoubtedly, we had a gap of one or two years, but can that be considered a big deal? Our biggest problems are still the destruction of Chaldea and the attack on the King by the Sixth Singularity. And as far as I know, that King Arthur of Chaldea seems to have that kind of relationship with the King... You should understand, right? If she says something bad about us to the King, we'll all be exiled to some unknown era today."

The thought of Artoria from Chaldea filled Lev with anguish. Who could have known her relationship with the King was like that? Ever since Fuyuki City, he'd been openly mocking her, even telling her to get out of this world that didn't belong to her. And now, the tables had turned. If she spoke ill of him to the King, all his efforts would have been in vain. Therefore, adhering to the principle that he couldn't just sit and wait for his doom, he had to save himself. Lev knew he had to achieve something remarkable.

Although Floros wanted to claim all the credit for himself, he knew that hogging one's own glory would invite trouble. So he decided to bring Barbatos into his camp. That way, even if other demons came looking for trouble, he'd have someone to take the fall.

"So, as far as I know, Your Majesty, all the concubines who came to this singularity have gone missing. If we can find them and bring them back to Your Majesty's side, wouldn't the matter of the Sixth Singularity be easily resolved? Don't forget, you were the one who fired the most lasers outside the Sixth Singularity. Be careful, Your Majesty might come after you later..."

"hiss……"

Upon hearing Floros's words, Barbatos, who hadn't initially thought anything was wrong, suddenly felt a chill of fear and then decisively agreed with Rafe's idea.

"You're right. It seems that the Sixth Singularity and the demonic pillars that attacked the pyramids with Goetia are actually us. This is a serious matter..."
