Or, why don’t you find another savior?

"Although it is located outside the world, in the final analysis, it also belongs to the underworld that was born from human history." Scathach shook her head, "It is also burning there. The Magic King's methods are really thorough."

Xi Jian was stunned for a moment: "Then Master...could he have been burned to death?"

"How is it? When I came to my senses, I was already here. Most likely, my real body is still in the Kingdom of Shadows. Because of this crisis called the Burning of Humanity, I had the opportunity to come out as a Servant." Scathach said, "It has been about half a month since I came to this singularity. While collecting intelligence, I have been recruiting Servants who are willing to fight together to repair the singularity..."

Then, she saw her beloved disciple arrive at the North American singularity.

"It turns out that it's not because of my presence here that Master was summoned by the restraining force of this singularity." Xi Jian couldn't help laughing, "I knew it, it's not such a coincidence."

"You're having a quarrel." Kallen kept shaking her head, "You're an adult now, but you're still acting like a child."

"Because I discovered that I am not the only special one in the eyes of my master." Morgan shook his head, with a hint of sympathy in his joking tone.

Xi Jian covered his forehead and said, "You should continue to cause trouble for me instead of analyzing me randomly here..."

"Well, how should I put it? Before this, I just regarded myself as a device summoned by the restraining force to perform the function of the guardian of human history." Scathach thought for a while, thinking about how to comfort Shiomi, "If my disciple is not a special existence, how could I catch up with you all the way here after discovering that you came here?"

"I know that without you telling me." Xi Jian was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

He felt that his quarrel would now be confirmed by his master, wife, and daughter - although his master had said this on purpose and Xi Jian was very happy - he still had to explain:

"I was just thinking, among the seven singularities set up by the Magic King, why was Master placed in this mediocre fifth singularity instead of a more troublesome place?"

Morgan nodded silently to this reasonable question, and Karin also began to think about it.

"Of course it's because I'm considered capable of doing something." Scathach obviously knew the answer, "But the singularity had already formed the current situation before I arrived. You may be the key factor in breaking the deadlock."

"Something...what do you mean?" Shiomi was about to continue asking.

"Let's talk about this later. It seems that when you set out with this nurse, the nurse also knew this and came out to wait for you."

After the carriage climbed a high slope, looking out, there was a vast field.

At the end of the wasteland, there were neatly arranged mechanical soldiers and several figures parading on the high ground.

Chapter 49: Anyway, let’s sign the contract first

The Servant called "President King" by Nightingale, whose real name is Thomas Edison.

While overlooking the American mechanical soldier formation on the top of the mountain, she introduced them to the Chaldea group. During this time, Shiomi and Scathach signed a formal contract.

"Hmm... As expected of my beloved disciple's magic, it really makes me feel at ease." Scathach put her hand on her heart and praised with a smile.

Shiomi could only purse her lips helplessly, restraining the smile that could make people complain about her shamelessness at any time, and asked Nightingale:

"Edison? Is that the inventor Edison? But I only see a man with a lion's head..."

He used magic to strengthen his eyes, and then he could clearly see several figures on the hill where the parade was taking place.

In addition to the lion-headed Edison who was sitting on a luxurious chair at the head of the group, there was also a girl with short purple hair who looked to be no more than a teenager sitting next to him.

The girl is also a Servant.

Apart from that, the most concerning thing is the golden male servant standing beside him.

The long, messy hair is a transparent white, the eyes are as sharp as a newly sharpened sword, and the ruby ​​embedded in the exposed chest echoes with it, brewing a seductive aura. But what is more conspicuous is the golden armor that covers the whole body of this Servant, which can be said to be "fused" with the flesh and exudes a sacred glow.

Although every part is full of beauty, the young man who integrates all of them gives people a strong impression that transcends beauty. He is an indescribably wonderful young man.

That man is very strong. Conservatively speaking, he is on the same level as Gilgamesh.

Shiomi evaluated secretly in her heart.

"Oh? Comparable to the original Hero King? That's a very high evaluation." Scathach suddenly chuckled and continued.

“…Don’t interfere with other people’s thoughts and eavesdrop on them!” Xi Jian almost lost his balance and fell off the cliff.

There is a convenient way of communication between the Servant and the Master, which relies on the magical channel and allows for a conversation through thoughts.

But Scathach seems to be even more powerful. After making a contract with him, she can even use the magic channel to listen to Shiomi's thoughts.

"Please wait until you are free to flirt with me. It's really worrying that you are so lax when facing a powerful enemy, Dad." Karen complained coldly.

Shiomi raised his eyebrows slightly, sensing that Kallen had been very harsh towards him since Scathach appeared: "...it was obviously Master who acted without permission..."

"That being said, should we make contact or what?" Kallen put down the telescope and ignored Shiomi's defense. "We need to understand what happened on this land and why they deployed their troops like this."

"If they are hostile, it's easy to deal with. We can just charge in like this." Xi Jian stood up. "It's safer not to be hostile before we figure out the situation."

At this time, Nightingale stood up, picked up Karen and held her around her waist.

"Then there is only one way."

"Hey——" Shiomi wanted to stop him, but Nanding was ready to go.

This is a real berserker, he does whatever he thinks of.

"Let's go, Master," said Nightingale.

"Ah..." Karen realized what the head nurse wanted to do and made a flat sound of surprise.

Then, Nightingale jumped from the top of the mountain like a cannonball, holding Karen in her arms. Judging from the landing route, she was heading straight for the hill where Edison and his team were standing.

"Ugh……"

Letting out a sigh, Shiomi bent her knees slightly, and her hand was held by Scathach. Then the two of them jumped up and landed there following the figures of Nightingale and Kallen.

On the other hand, on Edison's side, only the white-haired young man noticed them and warned them:

"Edison, we have a guest."

As she finished her words, Nightingale landed heavily on the hill, and the hard ground cracked.

"You are..." Edison narrowed his eyes to confirm.

"You must be Edison, right? I'm here to talk to you about eradicating diseases." Nightingale pulled out a revolver and pointed it at Edison. "Excuse me, are you ready?"

"Wait a moment--!"

Shiomi, who landed next, rushed over and pressed down Nightingale's pistol, and ranted wildly:

"How can you just point a gun at someone right away? Do you really want to start a war right away?"

Edison laughed: "Hmph, welcome! Nice to meet you! Angels from Crimea, and everyone from Chaldea!"

Releasing Nightingale's pistol, Shiomi raised an eyebrow at Edison and the other three: "Know that we are Chaldea? Can the Servants of the singularity even get this kind of information?"

"Someone told us, but we have to keep it a secret as to who that person is." The purple-haired girl introduced herself, "I am the Servant Caster, my real name is Helena Blavatsky."

This name is known to everyone. She was a 19th-century mystic scholar. In modern times, it is generally believed that she is a person related to the spirit world.

In the world of magic, Helena is also an excellent magician who has left a name for herself.

"So you just gave your real name." Xi Jian put one hand on his waist and looked at the thin and fair-skinned young man, "Then can this guy over here also reveal his real name?"

Then, the young man responded to his question: "Lancer, my real name is Karna, and Edison invited me to come and provide assistance."

"Oh..." Xi saw it clearly, and he stood in front of Scathach. He was not afraid, but he was afraid that his master would be eager to compete with this top servant, which would mess up the original plan.

It turns out that he is the great hero recorded in the Mahabharata, the son of the sun god Surya. No wonder he has an aura that is no less than that of Gilgamesh.

"Caster, Thomas Alva Edison! Not only the inventor king, but now the president king!" Edison introduced himself with great vigor, making Shiomi and Kallen plug their ears. "Although I have become a lion's head, my wisdom has not been lost at all."

"Now that I have introduced everything, what about the radical cure——"

Nightingale was determined to get straight to the point, but was interrupted by Shiomi, who looked at Edison.

"Let's take it step by step. Since you are all here to deploy your troops and know that we will come, you are waiting for us halfway." Xi Jian showed a calm smile, "We have just arrived at this era of singularity. Can you please explain the situation?"

Scathach, who was behind him, pinched her chin, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and whispered to herself: "I haven't seen you for a while, and you can already stand on your own."

"Maybe he just wants to show off in front of the master. Dad is just a man after all." Karen also responded in a low voice.

Shiomi wanted to complain that he had heard everything, but she managed to keep her composure:

"The first question is, do you have any information related to the Holy Grail?"

Chapter 50 Negotiations Break Down

Combining the information from the first, second, and fourth singularities, the key to the formation of the singularity is the Holy Grail.

The only difference is that unlike the Holy Grails used in the Holy Grail War ritual, these Holy Grails themselves are more powerful because they were made by the Magic King himself.

According to Leif, who appeared in the Roman singularity and transformed into the Demon Pillar Flauros, when he was carried away by his pride, he said that this Holy Grail was created by their "King".

So the first thing Shiomi asked about was the Holy Grail.

But Edison shook his head: "Obviously, we don't have the Holy Grail, which means that the Holy Grail is in the hands of the enemy."

"That's in the East...what's going on with those Celtics?" Xijian asked.

Hearing him say this, Helena showed a surprised expression: "Do you already know their identities?"

"I can only roughly determine that they are Celtic." Xi Jian spread his hands, "After all, I have some connection with the Celtics."

He turned sideways and introduced Scathach to everyone: "This is Lancer who met up with us in Chaldea on the way here. She is also my master, Scathach, the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows."

"You said you were her disciple?" Helena was even more surprised.

"This man is not lying. He has indeed received the true teachings from the queen." Karna made a judgment.

At this time, Edison answered Shiomi's question: "They suddenly appeared in this era. Although they are not qualified to be heroic spirits, they are also warriors of the mythological era. The US military of this era will undoubtedly be defeated."

The inventor of the lion head looked solemn: "So in order to save America, I was summoned out--"

"So that's why you became the President?" Xijian frowned.

"To avoid this national crisis, we need to establish a system and authority far beyond the president! So call me the President King!" Edison was excited again.

Having said that, Xi Jian and the others finally figured out what the so-called President King was all about.

"Then under my leadership, the battle situation returned to a state where the enemy and ours were equal in strength! Because I will not lose in mass production!" Edison was very proud of this.

Shiomi turned around and looked at the formation of mechanical soldiers on the plain. Those mechanical soldiers painted with the Stars and Stripes were made by Edison.

"Those mechanical soldiers... aren't purely machines, right?" Xi Jian asked without turning his head.

"Yes, they are called mechanical soldiers, but in fact they are more like exoskeletons, with someone sitting inside to control them." Helena smiled bitterly and shook her head, acknowledging Shiomi's guess.

There were actually people sitting among those silent mechanical soldiers.

"What will happen to these people?" Nightingale asked.

"They have completed their ideological education." Edison replied slowly, "The country is united, the citizens are one army, regardless of gender, age or status, all come to serve the country!"

He opened his arms to the battle array on the plain: "Don't worry, angels! Everyone in Chaldea! The people will not sacrifice in vain! Because all the "citizens" have become "soldiers"! Put on mechanical armor and become an invincible army!"

Xi Jian couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: "Everyone is a soldier...this is crazy..."

He knew very well that war could not be won by relying on big principles, let alone a war against warriors from the mythological era.

"But judging from the current situation, even if all the people are armed, the gears of war are not turning in a direction that is favorable to you." Scathach stood with one hand on the waist in exactly the same position as Shiomi, and calmly criticized Edison, "Why not cooperate with Chaldea, get the Holy Grail, and correct this era——"

"No, we are not going to correct the times," said Edison.

"What?" Kallen frowned.

"I know that after using the Holy Grail, our country can avoid being burned. This is very attractive to me who has always been very patriotic. For me, as the president, only America can survive and prosper forever with the help of my invention. Is there anything better than this?!" Edison smiled hypocritically, as if he was doing the absolutely right thing, "However, other countries in other times will also be destroyed."

At this moment, a sneer sounded from the communicator, and Morgan's image appeared. She looked at Edison indifferently:

"You are a Caster-class Servant, but you don't even understand the most basic principles. Even if you obtain the Holy Grail and build your ideal country here, do you think the 'universe' will really allow such a thing?"

Scathach raised one of her eyebrows slightly.

"Who can say for sure?" But Edison did not intend to delve into the meaning of Morgan's words. He just asked everyone: "Chaldeans, what is your answer?"

"Need I ask? Of course I refuse." Shiomi raised his thumb and pointed it at the ground. "I... No, we in Chaldea are acting to solve the burning of humanity and save human history. We will never go along with you who intends to abandon human history! Edison!"

"Human history... is just a bunch of empty principles," Edison disagreed.

"Even so, he is better than you who are bound to lead everything to destruction! In the end, you will only shirk responsibility and say that 'things should be like this'!" Nightingale refuted.

"Are you going to impeach you too, Ms. Nightingale?" Edison was furious. "Karna!"

"Negotiations break down? Then there's nothing we can do."

Karna raised his golden spear and released magic power in the form of fire from his whole body.

"Just as I expected, all my efforts were in vain, disciple." Scathach stepped forward, crossed with the magic spear summoned by Shiomi, and pointed at Karna who came out. "The opponent is the son of the sun god. If you feel scared, it's okay for Master to cover your retreat."

"Master, you really don't have any confidence in your own disciples." Ximen was not afraid of Karna who was emitting pressure. "Nightingale, please take Kallen and retreat first. We, the master and disciple, will hold them here."

Kallen clenched her hands: "Dad, and Queen Scathach, be careful!"
