The doctors who heard his instructions broke out in cold sweats and kept saying “I know, I know” because what Nightingale said was right.
And she had been warned many times before.
"Also, this is the diagnosis and treatment procedure book. You must follow this procedure in the future." Nightingale handed a stack of handwritten notes to the doctor. "I'll leave this to you, Dr. Benjamin Rush."
"We must all do our best for each other, Nurse Nightingale." Dr. Benjamin solemnly sorted out the stack of notes and said goodbye to Nightingale.
After packing up, the three of them got on the carriage and set off along the route indicated by Nightingale.
"Where are we going this time?" Xijian turned around and asked.
He and Karen sat in the carriage, their legs resting on the edge of the back carriage, while Nightingale drove the carriage.
"Go and meet a man. It was he who provided us with those robots. Otherwise, the soldiers would not be able to withstand the attacks of those weird warriors and would have been wiped out long ago," said Nightingale.
Karen felt the carriage bumping on the road and adjusted her sitting position to be more comfortable: "That man, could he be called Charles Babbage?"
"I don't know about that, Master. I only know that the other party calls himself the President King." Nightingale said.
"Huh? The President is the President, the King is the King, and the President King is some kind of patchwork freak." Shiomi found it hard to accept. It had a shocking impact on his existing knowledge system. He almost subconsciously thought that the President King was also some kind of crazy Servant.
"You'll know when you meet him," Nightingale said. "I've only met him a few times before, and we didn't have much communication."
She only cares about the injured and has no interest in the president or the king.
But if they want to stop the war, then the first stop must be to go to the President King. That man is the reason why the US military can continue to fight the Celtic warriors.
"But even if there are servants here who can create mechanical soldiers, there is no way to advance the progress of the war." Kallen thought, "Who will be the servant who leads those Celtic warriors?"
Shiomi pinched his brows and said, "After all, this is the manpower that the Magic King has set up in this singularity. The number of Celtic Servants who are capable of becoming the core of this singularity is too many to count with two hands."
"That's true." Kallen frowned.
She also rode in a carriage in London.
But that is a 21st century thing, and the road is also a 21st century thing.
The carriages and roads of the 18th century were simply terrible. Her butt was sore from the bumpy ride that she even started to feel hungry.
Thinking that she was hungry, Kallen opened the bag in the car and looked for something to eat.
But they were all supplies that couldn't be eaten directly without setting up camp and making a fire, and they also looked like antiques at first glance, so Karin was a little hesitant.
"Would you like to eat it?" Shiomi handed over a fresh, red apple.
"Where did it come from? Is there any fruit in the car?"
"No, I just picked it." Xi Jian was too embarrassed to say that he just picked it casually.
He guessed that Kallen might not be able to eat the food of this era, and Chaldea's supplies would also be needed to make a fire and set up camp, so he had to pinch an apple first.
"not bad."
Kallen smelled the sweet scent of apples, she moved next to Shiomi and sat with him at the back of the car with her legs hanging outside.
"It may be a bit shameless to say this, but for the time being, can you give me half of that apple?"
A fourth voice sounded.
The female voice was full of noble temperament yet approachable. Shiomi's pupils suddenly contracted. Even if he was dying, he would definitely recognize this voice.
Nightingale's carriage suddenly stopped. He looked up and saw a purple figure standing on a branch, holding onto the tree trunk.
Just as he had seen in desperate situation many years ago.
"It's been a long time since we last met, my beloved disciple."
Scathach, with half of her face covered by a mask, squinted and smiled.
Chapter 47: The Tragic Shura Field Between the Master and His Wife (Questionable)
Xi Jian opened his eyes wide, he almost thought he had seen it wrong, and couldn't help but want to confirm it carefully.
Kallen, who was standing by, was also stunned when she heard Scathach's words.
"This person... belongs to my father..." She was also a little surprised and wanted to ask Xijian.
However, at this moment, Scathach had already fallen from the branch, like a petal falling on a mat, and came lightly in front of Xijian. She bent down to remove the mask, and looked at Xijian's face with a smile.
So fast——!
Kallen was shocked, she didn't see Scathach's actions clearly at all.
"Oh... you're still the same as when you left, except that your eyes and expression are much heavier and more resolute than when you first left." Scathach nodded slightly, her tone sounding both relieved and happy.
“……” Xijian just looked at Scathach without saying a word.
"What's wrong? You haven't seen your master for a long time, and you don't even want to say hello?" Scathach was a little surprised by Shiomi's reaction. She looked into Shiomi's eyes, and there was a gleam of light in the depths of those eyes. It was not that there was no reaction at all.
Scathach reached out and habitually wanted to touch Shiomi's face, but her hand was caught by him.
He suddenly stood up, silently grabbed Scathach's hands and checked them, then let go, checked her body and legs, and finally showed a thoughtful expression, as if to say that there was nothing unusual.
"What a strange reaction..."
Even Scathach couldn't help but feel strange. Just as she was about to sigh, Shiomi hugged her tightly and held her in her arms carefully.
"It's been a long time since we last met. Master, you still look the same as before." Xijian greeted softly.
Scathach gently raised her hand and placed it on his back, feeling the familiar and nostalgic body temperature: "It turns out to be the same as before, so what did you do just now?"
"I'm worried about who's impersonating Master, so I came to confirm her measurements and stuff." Shiomi answered in her ear with a smile.
Scathach was quite surprised by the undisguised lie.
Whether it was an imposter or not, Shiomi should have known the answer clearly the moment the conversation started, so this was not the reason to waste time.
It seems like he is confirming something.
"If you can impersonate me, how could these things be wrong?" Scathach put aside her doubts for the time being and waited to confirm it later.
"Maybe."
Shiomi deepened his hug, as if he wanted to put his master into his pocket and take him away.
"...That's how it is, mother." Karen said quietly.
Shiomi was a little self-absorbed, then he remembered that he was not alone in the singularity repair work this time, Kallen was right next to him.
Not only that, she was still communicating with Morgan in Chaldea. On the screen projected by the communicator, Morgan stared at Shiomi with a half-smile. Many people from the control room came over behind her chair.
There were both men and women, Romani was almost squeezed out of the picture, and he was also participating with all his strength.
Everyone had an almost identical gossipy expression on their face.
Shiomi suddenly felt embarrassed, so he let go of Scathach and looked at the scene of Kallen and Chaldea: "Well, let me introduce you formally. This is my teacher, the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows, Scathach——"
"And she's my husband's first love." Morgan supported her chin with one hand, leaned on the table in front of her, and smiled at Xi Jian, "No wonder she asked to come to the fifth singularity alone before. It turns out that she wanted to have a secret tryst with an old friend."
"No, I don't have the ability to predict the future, how would I know--"
Hearing a teasing "Wow" sound coming from the communicator, Shiomi hurriedly explained the matter.
"Oh? You are the wife of my beloved disciple?"
Although Shiomi let go of his hand, Scathach held his hand very naturally, and looked at Morgan with interest, revealing a playful smile:
"He is not just an ordinary person."
"In short, he is a very powerful magician, who is not inferior to the Magic King!" Shiomi raised her finger and introduced him to her master seriously, trying her best not to mention Morgan's real name.
Although she said so when she took over the communications at Singularity F, in fact, she has not yet fully revealed her identity in the surviving Chaldea. Only Romani and Da Vinci know Morgan's true situation.
Besides, Morgan entered Chaldea as an accompanying family member at the beginning, and with the help of Shiomi, he completely avoided all relevant inspections.
Now, just the fact that Shiomi showed that she was a disciple of Scathach, coupled with the sudden emergence of the Shura Field, everyone in Chaldea has been overloaded with the amount of complicated information. The statement "not much worse than the Magic King" has temporarily been regarded as a coaxing rhetoric.
Everyone returned to their workstations one after another, continuing to handle support work for the two singularities, and continuing to eavesdrop at the same time.
"That's really interesting. If there's a chance, I'd like to have a good chat with you." Scathach said. Her wording sounded a little unfriendly, but her tone was surprisingly not oppressive.
Morgan raised his eyebrows nonchalantly, "There will always be a chance, don't worry. This may be a little infuriating, but if you are a Servant willing to support my husband in this fifth singularity, then please put your life on the line, Lancer."
"This is truly an extraordinary request, but you don't have to point it out specifically. I naturally have my own considerations for showing up in front of my disciples like this."
Scathach casually flicked her beautiful long dark purple hair, and it fluttered like a curtain in the forest wind.
"Don't think it's over. Chaldea's soul particle transfer does not support going to the singularity in batches, so when my husband comes back, let's have a good talk about what happened in this singularity." Morgan showed that kind of smile again, which is rare at ordinary times, so it will make people creepy when it is shown specially.
The spring breeze is blowing, but the cold is biting.
"Ah..." Xijian let out a suppressed cry.
He hung his head, as if he were cursed, and sat back in the back of the carriage in frustration.
Guided by the hand that Scathach was holding, Scathach also took a few steps closer to the carriage.
"Now that we've said hello, let's go." Nightingale said at this time, "It's still a long way to the President's city. If we delay any further, we won't be there before dark."
Her attitude was like a sharp scalpel. If Xijian and the others continued to drag their feet here, she would abandon them and go alone.
"Ah... yes..." Xijian raised his head and glanced at Scathach. He moved to the side, intending to let Scathach sit down.
But Kallen squeezed in a seat, leaving the other side of the carriage for her, and it was hard not to guess that it was Morgan's request.
"It's okay, I'll sit inside."
Scathach let go of Shiomi's hand and quickly got into the carriage.
Chapter 48 Scathach joins the team.JPG
The carriage bumped along the undulating road. Shiomi and Kallen sat in the back of the carriage as before, while Scathach sat horizontally behind them, half lying against the railing of the carriage.
This carriage was originally used to transport goods. The back is empty and can barely accommodate people.
"So, Master came to the fifth singularity by himself to wait for me?" Xijian asked.
He knew that Scathach had an ability similar to clairvoyance and could see the experiences of a specific person. So it was understandable that after the Human Incineration, she saw Shiomi's movements and chose to come to the fifth singularity to wait.
"No, not really." Scathach denied Shiomi's guess, "Indeed, after you left the Shadow Kingdom, I have been watching your every move in the world-"
Morgan interrupted at this time: "Every move? In other words, even daily life is included? This is really a shameful act of surveillance, Scathach."
As she spoke, she asked a female staff member who was sitting in the back right and eavesdropping, "How should this behavior be described in general, Miss Sylvia?"
"Eh? Ah..." The control room worker named Sylvia was stunned for a moment and was a little embarrassed to answer.
At this time, another male voice answered: "I know, this kind of person is generally called a nympho!"
The male worker was then suppressed by the usually kind Romani.
The reason is simple. He was afraid that after Shiomi came back, Chaldea would suffer a tragic loss of personnel.
"Oh, you must be exhausted, Munir, go back to your room and get some sleep."
Romani smiled and grabbed Munir, who was two times fatter than him, and dragged him out of the control room, making people marvel at the doctor's strong physical strength.
"You saved your life, Munir." After muttering and complaining, Xi Jian raised his voice, "Forget it, Master can watch it if he wants, I don't mind--"
He originally thought that he and his master had such an integral relationship that it was no big deal if he was seen.
But then I thought, doesn't that mean that in addition to the time when he was with Morgan, he had also been seen by the master when he was with Orange in the past?
Then, Shiomi suddenly had the thought of committing suicide, but fortunately it was just an impulse that was quickly suppressed by reason.
"It's not to the extent of knowing everything, it's just that I know, like, 'Oh, my disciple is participating in the Holy Grail War right now and winning one victory after another.'" Scathach used Shiomi's back as a pillow and leaned on him. Because the fence of the carriage was very hard, it was not as comfortable as the disciple's body.
Although she acted like this, she did not stop explaining the situation, because Shiomi was very concerned and she had an obligation to explain it clearly: "But I won't be able to see this situation until the Human Burning begins."
"…It's probably due to the magnetic field of Chaldea." Shiomi said, "The man who calls himself the Magic King also said that even his clairvoyance can't see the coordinates of Chaldea."
"Magic King..." Scathach murmured, "So, you have already seen the guy who created this great feat?"
Xi Jian was stunned: "Wei Ye?"
"You should have noticed it, but Humanism is something that transcends the powers held by the gods, that is, a great cause." Scathach's leisurely tone revealed a hint of seriousness, "In order to destroy the world, it is a human cause that transcends the gods... Even I can't see clearly what it is."
"It's not wrong to say it's a great feat. The man who calls himself the Magic King has probably been planning this since before the beginning of the Christian era." Morgan agreed with Scathach's opinion. "The 72 Pillars of Demons are those he sent to different eras, incarnating into various magician families."
Shiomi was surprised: "It has been lurking in human history from the very beginning and has begun to prepare, right?"
He tilted his head slightly and looked at his master's profile: "So, how is the Shadow Kingdom?"
