Or, why don’t you find another savior?

Scathach stroked his back, feeling a little intoxicated by the body temperature and scent of her beloved disciple.

For example...

No, Scathach can't even use metaphors anymore.

Shiomi easily picked up Scathach and let her hang on him like a koala, then quickly stepped into a narrow natural space on the mountain path that could be used to shelter from the rain.

Be it the collapse of the fortress or the conflict of the holy spears, none of them were within the scope of their consideration at the moment.

I should have reunited with the retreating people as soon as possible, but I wasted precious time here.

...Or maybe it's not really a waste of time.

"Surrender... It was my mistake..." Scathach escaped in a somewhat embarrassed manner, "I have to reunite with everyone quickly..."

"The battlefield is chaotic. It doesn't matter if it's earlier or later." Xijian pressed her against the rock with some force, but it didn't hurt her.

He constructed physical walls through magic.

Using powerful defensive magic in a place like this, Scathach suddenly realized that she had no choice but to accept the situation.

Of course, if you really want to refuse, just push his shoulders away and say that's enough.

In the end, I was the same.

"The smell of Master is so nostalgic."

In the end, I didn’t really want to stop there.

"The smell of Master is so nostalgic..."

"……Well……"

Scathach hugged Shiomi tightly, she thought she had gotten used to the separation.

But she had not been able to see her beloved disciple for several days, and she still felt as if a piece of her heart was missing for the first time in a long time.

Now, the gap in my heart has been filled again.

After that, all hell broke loose.

Chapter 46 Once Again

In terms of results, the conflict between the holy spears was even more tragic than Shiomi had expected in the desert.

It was definitely not to the extent that anyone nearby would be swallowed up by the torrent of light and then destroyed.

With the Round Table Fortress as the center, a large hole was dug in the solid mountain with a diameter of several kilometers, and there was no trace of the fortress left.

"The city of Camelot still exists. It seems that when the Lion King launched the Holy Lance, the Knights of the Round Table all fled."

Jumping over the damaged road covered by the landslide, Shiomi landed in front of the wall of the East Village and said while looking at the Round Table Fortress.

He just used his familiar to fly up into the sky to observe.

The Chalk City still stands.

At least it is enough to show that the Lion King has not disappeared, and Gawain stationed in the holy city is still alive.

"It was a little off plan, but I used the Holy Lance to teach the Lion King a lesson. I'm sure Morgan will be happier than if I had simply destroyed the Circumference Fortress, right?"

Scathach stepped on one foot and gently held the hand that Shiomi extended when she landed, responding to his words.

"That's true." Xijian smiled in agreement.

At this time, a cheerful male servant holding a bow stood on the city gate behind them and greeted them:

"Oh! Lady Scathach has also returned safely. This means that this operation went extremely smoothly and no one was left behind."

"Not only that, there is one more prisoner rescued." Scathach held Shiomi's hand and introduced her naturally.

"Is he the Master you all mentioned? He looks like a veteran who has experienced many battles." The Bow Servant waved his hand, "I will ask them to open the door right away. The Great Witch is waiting for you."

Then the city gate several meters high slowly opened.

"Who is he?" Xi Jian asked.

"Arash Kamanga, his class is Archer, assisting Hassan Sabbah in protecting the masterless servants in the East Village."

Scathach walked with him towards the city gate while explaining the situation to him.

This singularity also has many Servants summoned by the Suppression Force, but most of them died in the battle between the Sun King, the Lion King, and the Mountain People before they arrived here.

The ones who survived here included Hassan Quiet, who was the one being rescued in this operation, and Arash, who was stationed in the East Village.

In the late night raid on the fortress just now, Arash, as Archer, was responsible for leading a group of villagers to defend the base camp.

After entering the city gate, Shiomi could see that a medieval-style stone city had been built in this area which was not wide and steep.

The rugged mountain roads were covered with stone steps, and the ruined villages were transformed into sturdy towns.

Without magic that rivals that of the gods, it would be impossible to accomplish such a thing in just a few days.

"Is this all Morgan's achievement?" Shiomi couldn't help but marvel at the high level of her position construction.

Scathach couldn't help but smile, "But it's also very mana-consuming. Even with Kallen and Sakura's temporary contract, most of the burden will probably come from her."

"...The Lion King's move of occupying the contract was really beyond my expectation." Xijian was also helpless.

At this moment, he realized that the master had withdrawn his hand and patted him on the back.

"Go see her quickly. The only thing that would make her happier than the battle tonight would probably be your return," said Scathach.

"Master..."

"I have already made a contract with you again. There is no problem here." Scathach showed a calm smile, "I will take care of the others."

The previous magic power replenishment was too sufficient, making her skin look a little oily and smooth.

Of course, the reason why she was in such a good mood at the moment was a little more complicated.

Urged by his master, Shiomi could only walk quickly through the stone city streets that were not in the style of a singularity and arrived at the castle in front of the mountain temple.

I walked through the empty atrium that was unattended, ran through the deserted hall, and turned around the not-too-winding stairs and steps.

Finally, on the wide terrace of the castle, Morgan was found standing by the wall, looking into the distance.

"I have already heard the general situation from Chaldea's communication. I didn't expect that you would escape without waiting for me to pick you up." Morgan put his hand on the wall, turned sideways with a faint smile, and spoke to Shiomi first.

"I thought I had to fight the Lion King to the death, but I didn't expect the first generation Hassan Sabbah to take action." Xijian lowered his eyebrows, looked at her apologetically, and walked to her side. "All the contracts on me were killed. That old man is really not simple."

"I see. No wonder the contract between you and me suddenly disappeared." Morgan understood. "Since you are helping me, I won't mind the disappearance of the contract that has lasted for more than 20 years."

The night wind blew their clothes, the eastern sky turned pale, Morgan's long silver hair fluttered in the wind, the azure blue at the end of her hair blended into the night, looking poetic.

“The contract… is gone…” Xijian felt more and more sorry.

"At most, I will have to retreat in half a day because I will run out of magic power. After all, I only established a temporary contract with those two children to borrow magic power, and there is a limit after all." Morgan said calmly, but his eyes were always looking into his. "Too much magic power is needed to build a city and activate the Holy Lance. It will hinder their actions."

Her inorganic, ethereal voice drifted into the night, just like the refreshing mountain breeze at this moment.

Maybe Morgan was waiting for something, but it didn't really matter.

Shiomi knew exactly what she should do at this moment.

Then, Morgan opened her eyes wide in surprise and watched Xijian kneel down on one knee in front of her, reach out and hold Morgan's left hand.

He raised his head seriously and looked into her face:

"The contract is over, so let's make another one. Morgan Le Fay, are you still willing to establish the same contract as the past 20 years with this man who has no other skills except fighting?"

As he spoke, Morgan slowly closed his held hand, placing his thumb against the back of his hand.

"My husband is really cunning. Isn't this exactly the same as when he proposed to me?" Morgan looked away slightly, her fair skin turning a pink shade.

The witch, who is always calm, elegant and well-mannered, now looks like a worried girl.

"It's not cunning, but what I should do. I dragged you into this unprecedented incident, made you follow me everywhere, and made you lead everyone to continue exploring the singularity when I lost my personal freedom. What I have done now is not even half of what you have done for me."

"Some things can't be so simple."

Morgan did not let go of the hand and accepted his contract request again.

In other words, no matter how many times he has to do it again, Morgan Le Fay will accept the contract with Shiomi Tianxi.

As he said, for her.

A mere twenty years, in that long journey, is just a blink of an eye.

How can they be compared? How can they be compared?

Chapter 47 You have her scent.JPG

Shiomi stood up from the ground, and in the dim morning light and the pleasant mountain breeze, he carefully hugged Morgan in his arms.

"Chaldea's magic costume and communicator are missing."

She leaned on his chest and teased Xi Jian lightly.

"After all, he has just been freed from captivity."

"You should have the answer to why Altria wanted to capture you and why she wanted to seize the contract, right?" Morgan asked.

"About this—"

Shiomi let Morgan stand up slightly from her arms, supported her shoulders, and was about to explain the situation, but her words were interrupted by a sound coming from the other side of the door.

When Sakura and Kallen learned that he had also returned safely, they hurried over from the village to see him.

At this time, Morgan also skillfully left Shiomi's arms, took a step back, and watched Shiomi being bumped into by his two adult daughters.

"Really... I was so worried..." Ying was about to cry, "You suddenly appeared and wanted to cover us... I thought you were going to be captured again."

"If that's the case, I suggest that we move to the next singularity, and it would be better for Dad to stay in Chaldea." Kallen said dimly, "Anyway, the director will definitely be happy to let Dad sit in the control room."

Shiomi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No matter what, there is no need to go to that extent. Besides, the special situation we encountered this time can also serve as a reference for the investigation of the last singularity."

"Forgive him, after all, he was trying to stop Altria's Holy Spear for you." Morgan held his arm up and advised gracefully, "But while we were running around in the desert and wilderness, my husband was sitting in that chalk city enjoying himself. What a leisurely life."

Scathach, who followed, added: "At times like this, I should let my beloved disciple suffer a little."

"...Uh..." Xijian looked into his master's eyes, carefully guessing what this sentence was referring to.

"Director Olga Marie is still in the Sun King's territory, stationed there as Chaldea's special envoy." Morgan looked at Shiomi, "It's time to pick her up."

Shiomi was a little surprised: "Why would Mary stay in the Sun King's territory?"

He had not been there yet and knew very little about the situation there. He only knew that the Sun King's real name was Ozymandias and that he was the main force currently hostile to Camelot.

"That place has the environment of the Age of Gods." Scathach said, "When the Sun King was summoned to this singularity, the territory under his rule was also transferred here."

Shiomi suddenly understood: "I see, no wonder Mary did this."

What to do next is very clear. The master just said that he should do some hard work next. Apart from that matter, Shiomi should be sent to the territory of the Sun King as the representative of Chaldea.

The others will stay in this mountain village to integrate the forces here, and then meet in the desert to launch a general attack on the holy city of Camelot.

Thinking of this, Shiomi had a rough idea in his mind. He patted Sakura and Kallen who were clinging to his arms.

"Okay, okay, you're already such a grown-up, but you still keep acting like a spoiled child. Do you want mom and master to laugh at you?" Xijian said.

Scathach didn't care: "It's okay, this is not bad."

"Didn't you say that children have the right to act like spoiled brats no matter how old they are?" Morgan had no objection to this.

“…You guys…” Shiomi ruffled her two daughters’ hair.

At this moment, Karen suddenly stepped back and ran to Morgan to tell him something, but everyone present could hear her voice:

"Mother, besides the scent of you and Master, Dad also smells like an unknown woman."

As soon as she said this, Ying was stunned and sniffed hard: "...It seems to really...give people a pure and sacred feeling..."

The situation deteriorated in the blink of an eye to the point where Shiomi wanted to jump off the terrace.

But since he wouldn't die even if he jumped, and would be "hunted down" by his wife and master, he decided to honestly admit what happened.

The strange feminine scent that stained his body was undoubtedly from the Lion King.

During the time they rode together on war horses, he and the Lion King maintained a distance that would have caused the Knights of the Round Table to collectively die, so it was no surprise that there was some tension.

I just didn't expect Kallen to be so perceptive.

At this time, Sakura silently retreated to a safe distance, with an angry expression that said "I don't care about my dad".
