Irisviel supported her waist with both hands, showing a confident look.

"Let me be the acting Master!"

"Well, that's fine if you want."

After reaching a superficial agreement with Irisviel.

Although he still had countless grudges in his heart, Kiritsugu Emiya still started this servant summoning.

Inside another basement in the German castle.

An extremely complex summoning array was faintly flashing blue light.

Emiya Kiritsugu placed the knight armor he was holding into it, then looked at Irisviel beside him and spoke softly.

"Ellie, I'm going to start."

“Yeah~” Irisviel nodded, “Then let’s get started.”

"..."

Emiya Kiritsugu looked at the summoning circle in front of him, his emotions were extremely complicated - if possible, he absolutely did not want to summon King Arthur.

But the current situation forces him to do so.

I just hope I'm not as resistant to her as I think.

Emiya Kiritsugu thought so, then stretched out his hand and began to summon his own servants.

however--

The man underestimated the incompatibility between himself and Altria.

When the summoning circle began to flicker, Emiya Kiritsugu felt a strong sense of rejection coming from his body.

That was a resistance that came from the heart and could not be ignored.

This made Emiya Kiritsugu feel extremely uncomfortable and nauseous.

So after the Servant had been basically finalized and confirmed to appear by his side, Emiya Kiritsugu simply picked up his clothes and left the basement without saying a word.

"I came here to follow the call."

"Let me ask you, are you my Master?"

Hearing this voice, Irisviel became a little nervous.

Although she had agreed to Emiya Kiritsugu to be the acting Master, she didn't know whether the other party would recognize her.

The sound faded away, and the servant's figure appeared in the basement.

But the first one to exclaim was Irisviel.

"Wow--!"

"So young!"

The one who appeared before Irisviel was not the legendary heroic female knight in thick armor, but a young girl in her prime.

The beautiful white dress she wore was elegant and practical, perfectly reflecting the beauty of her age.

This is Altria, the owner of the knight's armor, the old king of Britain.

Facing Irisviel's exclamation, she subconsciously took a few steps back, then realized that this seemed a little rude, so she added.

"Please do not do this."

"We're just meeting for the first time."

"Oh, that's it~"

After hearing Altria's "warning", Irisviel immediately began to tidy up her clothes.

"Cough cough."

"Hello, my name is Irisviel von Einzbern."

"For the sake of convenience, you can also call me Airi like Kiritsugu."

"..."

Although she still seemed a little confused, in response to this polite greeting, Altria still nodded politely and responded to Irisviel.

"Hello, I am Altria Pendragon."

"Although it may be a bit presumptuous to say this now, but Miss Airi, you are not my Master, right?"

"You can see it~"

Irisviel clasped her hands together, looking very happy.

"Indeed, I am not your Master."

"but--"

"The person who summoned you, my husband, Emiya Kiritsugu, has given me absolute authority to act as your agent."

"How about it? Do you want me to call him back to prove this to you?"

"..."

Altria shook her head.

"Since you said so, and you appeared at the summoning site at the same time... I believe you did not deceive me."

"And since the Master doesn't want to see me, there's no need to force him to do so."

“I see.” Irisviel smiled calmly.

She seemed to quite like the feeling of being trusted by someone other than her husband.

“Then—” Irisviel stretched out her hand, “Let’s cooperate well from now on, right?”

"Ah."

Altria took the hand that Irisviel extended and completed the formal confirmation of the proxy.

The relationship between the two of them improved a little because of this.

Irisviel really treasured this opportunity to communicate with other people, especially when the other party was polite.

She quickly took the initiative to find a new topic.

"You are really young~"

"I thought it would summon a middle-aged woman."

"Really?" Artoria felt a little embarrassed after being praised like that.

"That may be why I want to be summoned by someone the most at this moment."

"Summoned by someone?"

Irisviel seemed to sense the flavor of the story.

She held Altria's hand and said with a smile:

"You seem to have a lot of stories~"

"Come on, let's go upstairs!"

"You must confess everything to me, the acting Master~"

280. The Love Story of a Girl with Dai Mao/Morgan's Obsession/The Mortal Sword (4k)

The walls of a German castle.

Artoria came here with Irisviel, under her guidance.

The cold wind blew past the two of them, revealing the chill of the north without any concealment.

"Are you cold?" Irisviel turned to look at Altria behind her, "Do you want me to go back and get you some clothes?"

"No." Altria shook her head.

"I don't feel cold, don't worry."

“Is that so~” Irisviel smiled sweetly, “Then I feel relieved.”

"Come on, tell me—who is the person you are expecting?"

"I'm so bored here that I'm going to molder."

"..."

Altria's lips trembled.

It can be seen that Aliceviel's easy-going personality is more to her liking.

but--

Artoria seemed to be thinking about something, so she didn't respond to Irisviel immediately.

Seeing this, the acting Master spoke again.

"what happened?"

"Before you came here, didn't you promise to tell me everything? Why are you silent now?"

"Could it be..."

Irisviel moved forward a little and came in front of Altria.

"You actually hate me as your acting Master... so that's why you're like this?"

"That's not the case."

Altria quickly rejected the possibility raised by Irisviel.

"Since the real Master has appointed you as the deputy, then I will certainly recognize you."

“Then why didn’t you say anything?” Irisviel held her hands on her waist, looking very unhappy. “It’s not easy for me to come across something that interests me!”

"because--"

Altria looked at Irisviel in front of her, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

"I'm afraid that after I tell you, you'll be angry."

"Eh?!"

Irisviel exhaled a breath of hot air.

"Why do you think so? Am I an easily angered deputy master in your mind?"

"No, that's not the case." Altria answered calmly, "I just know it's not the right time to speak my mind now."

"..."

Hearing this, Irisviel narrowed her eyes slightly, as if examining Altria in front of her.

Suddenly, she stretched out her hand and pointed at the Servant in front of her.

"I made a decision!"

"No matter what you say, I won't be angry!"

"Under these conditions, you can always speak out what's on your mind, right?"

"..."

Her acting Master had said so much, and Artoria knew that if she continued to be stubborn, it would be a bit disrespectful to the other party.

She took a deep breath of the northern air, and then gave a formal response to Irisviel's question.

"Ellie."

"I... don't actually want to be summoned by your husband, Emiya Kiritsugu, that's all."

After saying this, Altria secretly observed Irisviel in front of her.

She knew that what she had just said should not have been said.

After all, the Holy Grail War requires close cooperation between Masters and Servants.
