But he knew the inside story best. The Lion King... or rather, Altria's behavior, which was half an apology and half a gesture of goodwill, had caused him a lot of trouble.
And the final result is every night during this period.
"It doesn't matter. Since you're awake, we'll be awake too." Morgan lazily pulled the corner of the quilt over his fair chest. "But you look like you're in trouble?"
There was a sound of hot water running in the bathroom. When Xi Jian heard her say this, he leaned out of the bathroom and explained:
"After all, it's a matter of eating and staying alive, so we have to pay attention to it."
Scathach tilted her head slightly and smiled deeply: "Someone came while we were asleep, Merlin or his sister?"
"If it's true, I would like to ask you if it's true." Shiomi came out to tidy up the clothes that were thrown around the room, "The Magic King interfered with my dream..."
Then he told them roughly what happened in his dream.
It was simply that the Magic King wanted to persuade him to surrender for some reason.
"It seems that the solution to the six singularities has made the Magic King feel the crisis." Scathach got out of bed and stood in front of the mirror to fix her hair. "He is even unwilling to wait until the seventh singularity is repaired before taking action."
"The key lies in the problem with my husband." Morgan was not surprised by this. "You are the only variable that the Magic King can see. He is too afraid of you."
"It's a bit unnatural indeed." Shiomi stopped folding clothes. "Even though he can't see through my origins, he still sees me as a threat... It's like he got a revelation..."
Scathach couldn't help but smile when she heard this: "The Magic King originally listened to the revelation of heaven and was granted the Ten Commandments. "
"If that's true, his master is quite biased, actually giving guidance to believers who want to destroy human history." Xijian found the situation incomprehensible.
"How about my husband be a less partial god?" Morgan teased lazily.
Xi Jian almost choked: "What are you talking about..."
"Having said that, the idea that the Magic King doesn't want you to reach the Seventh Singularity has failed." Scathach put her hand on Shiomi's shoulder, "Perhaps there will be a huge trouble waiting for you in the Seventh Singularity."
"They were waiting for us." Shiomi added, "It is because of everyone's concerted efforts that we have come this far. Just because the Magic King values me as his enemy, it doesn't mean that everything is my credit. Master is too partial."
Scathach's hand slid along her shoulder to Shiomi's back, caressing her wantonly: "There's no way I can't be partial to you."
"Hmm..." Xi Jian expressed her understanding, "But Master, can you please stop touching me? We really can't waste time today. If you continue to touch me, something bad will happen."
"No one is rushing you over there, and you said you have plenty of time."
Scathach's left hand went around Shiomi's waist and moved down little by little, and her right hand went around his neck, pinching Shiomi's face, making him lower his body and turn his head to meet her kiss.
Behind her, Morgan got out of bed and walked into the bathroom.
"Aren't you coming?" Scathach asked teasingly.
"In that case my husband won't have to go out today." Morgan turned on the shower.
"Really? Then I will have this beloved disciple all to myself—"
"Don't make me sound like a dish, Master..."
Having said that, Shiomi still couldn't refuse, and it was impossible for her to refuse.
Ending
The fifth volume officially ends here.
There isn't really much to say, so I'll just briefly explain my thoughts on the last part of the story.
What I wrote was that when the singularity and the Tower of the End were destroyed, the Lion King went to Avalon and met another self there.
That is the Blue Dai who appeared in the first volume, and that is the Lion King himself who has experienced different possibilities.
As for the look of Lan Dai who is waiting in Avalon, you can refer to the classic cover of "Garden of Avalon". I did not choose the classic country girl look (laughs).
Anyway, thank you to all the friends who have read this far, and we will see you in the sixth volume tomorrow.
Prologue 1 Romani's Day Off
"Are you here? No wonder they're the only ones using the gym."
When Romani said this, Shiomi was sitting by the window in the Chaldea corridor, with the Antarctic sky as dark as the polar night outside the glass window behind him.
The wind and snow have not stopped for a moment since the fire broke out.
With a biscuit in her mouth, Shiomi seemed to be trying to eat a biscuit that she couldn't fit in one bite without using her hands.
Now, this project was interrupted by the appearance of Romani. Shiomi bit off the biscuit, swallowed the part in his mouth, picked up the biscuit basket beside him and handed it to Romani.
"Thank you." Romani took a piece and sat down next to Shiomi.
The preparations for the exploration of the seventh singularity have been basically completed. The director is directing in the control room. Romani was sent out to rest because "staying on the scene will make the atmosphere lazy."
"Can I help you?"
"It's nothing serious. I was ordered by the director to take a rest. I'm not very tired, so I came out to chat with someone--" Romani said with a smile.
Xi Jian nodded: "Then take a good rest. You are not a superman now. If you only rely on drugs and coffee and don't sleep, you will die of overwork sooner or later."
"...Yeah, I'm going to sleep soon." Romani ate the biscuits, "Hmm? Did you make this texture?"
"I was free anyway, so I just baked some cookies." Shiomi shrugged.
“Is this also a skill you develop from raising children?”
"I guess so. Even if I hadn't adopted them, I would still know how to cook." Xijian shrugged.
"That's amazing. I can only cook some basic nutritious meals, and I can't guarantee the taste."
Shiomi expressed her understanding of Romani's modesty: "You have a lot to learn."
"...Yeah." Romani nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. "We are finally almost there, the last singularity. The Lion King said that the Holy Grail at the seventh singularity can indicate the coordinates of Solomon's Temple."
"If it doesn't exist at the correct time, then only the imaginary space can explain it." Shiomi nodded, "But even if it's Sakura, there's no way to directly determine the location of the temple from the imaginary space."
After all, the opponent is also the Magic King, and his strength is unquestionable.
Naturally, it is impossible for other people who can intervene in the imaginary space to discover one's existence.
At this point, Shiomi suddenly recalled that when BB appeared in front of him when he returned from singularity F, he said that there were other competitors in the imaginary space.
Did she mean the Magic King?
"What did you think of?"
"Nothing..." Xi Jian shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "I have a question that is quite private, please keep it a secret for me for now."
"Hey?"
"Does the Magic King know what Mooncell is?" asked Shiomi.
Romani's expression changed slightly. "I don't know the details, but it seems to be a mysterious relic that exists in the core of the moon. Even the Magic King Solomon knows nothing about its origin, let alone its contact."
"Isn't it an existence that belongs to humans or even gods?" Xi Jian sighed.
"How did you know this?" Romani asked.
"It's hard to explain for now. Can you allow me to keep my answer to myself?" Xijian smiled apologetically.
Romani was used to Shiomi's certain level of mysticism. "Then keep it. That thing is too far away for humans, and even fewer magicians know of its existence."
"Thank you for your understanding." Shiomi nodded and handed the cookie basket to Romani. "This is a thank you."
"Oh? I'm welcome then." Romani said with emotion, "It would be nice if we had coffee or tea."
"It's my treat." Xijian curled his lips and said helplessly.
The two stood up and walked towards the cafeteria. On the way, Romani continued to chat: "But the seventh singularity, 2600 BC, is exactly the period when Gilgamesh was in power."
"Gilgamesh...where is he?" Shiomi showed a very complicated expression.
"Oh, that's right." Romani expressed deep sympathy. "So, you have been Gilgamesh's enemy twice, right?"
"So I am deeply worried about the future of the seventh singularity." Shiomi expressed pessimism, "You know, that man also decided to help the Master activate the contaminated Holy Grail because he thought it was interesting."
Romani couldn't help but mutter, "I know Gilgamesh is a person who does his own thing, but he has such a resume..."
"Please help Gilgamesh. What did the guy who intercepted us before the final battle say?" Shiomi looked vindictive.
"Hey...are we really going to settle the score?" Romani felt a chill on the back of his neck.
If he takes action now, Shiomi can make him disappear from the face of the earth.
"If it was the Magic King, maybe I would. But forget about Romani Achiman. I have killed people before, but I don't kill people randomly." Shiomi pointed at him cunningly, "If you were a noble of the Magic Association, maybe I would do it too. Why don't you join the director's family now and become a branch of Animusphia."
"...The bad taste is about to overflow, 'Noble Killer'..." Romani had heard of this nickname from Marisbury.
"Is anyone still spreading this nickname?" Xi Jian said in a furious tone, "Once the human rights issue is resolved, I will find out who it is and kill his entire family."
"Hahaha! Then you might as well just kick the Magic King down and carry out the burning of the human body yourself." Romani knew that Shiomi was just talking nonsense, so he followed suit.
Shiomi shook her head exaggeratedly, like a broken fan. "Do we have to destroy humanity to stop this rumor? How sad... If I had known, I would have accepted the Magic King's offer to surrender."
"Hello..."
"In short, if we are backstabbed by Gilgamesh in the seventh singularity, the responsibility of burning humanity will fall on you." Shiomi patted Romani on the back.
"Since you are so worried about Gilgamesh, why not summon a few Servants from the singularity?" Romani made a reasonable suggestion. "After all, there might not be many masterless Servants in that era."
After all, in the sixth singularity, he can form an alliance with Nitocris, incite Mordred to rebel, and then win over the servants who will protect the people of the mountain.
The Seventh Singularity does not guarantee exactly the same opportunities.
"Let's talk about it later... Plans can never keep up with changes."
After arriving at the cafeteria, Xiomi found the tea set and made a pot of black tea.
Who knew that Romani would actually ask if he could have cake? Shiomi put a lethal amount of sugar into the teapot and asked Romani to use a teaspoon to stir the sugar wet by the tea in the teacup with great effort.
"It's your own fault."
After listening to Romani's complaints, Leonardo da Vinci made such comments with great joy.
Chapter 2: The Gym Game
As an institution built on the Antarctic Plateau, Chaldea has fairly complete facilities to ensure the physical and mental health of everyone working here.
According to the original idea, in addition to simulated battles, the Masters also need regular physical exercise to ensure that they are in good physical condition to cope with the complex environment and conditions of the singularity.
However, there are only a few masters who can use this place now.
Scathach threw a punch quickly, and Shiomi dodged with all her might. Listening to the sound of the fist passing by her ears, she knew that if she was hit, she would be in big trouble.
He was being trained by his master in hand-to-hand combat.
Neither Scathach nor Morgan actually need this kind of training, they are more like sparring partners.
However, only Shiomi's training intensity is unique, and his fighting is almost like a death fight in the octagon cage.
"Master...can you relax a little?"
So even Shiomi had to complain out loud while blocking Scathach's fist.
"Isn't this exactly the same as when we were in the Shadow Kingdom?" Scathach smiled. "Don't worry, even if you are injured, Master will heal you..."
Shiomi felt his hair stand on end. He still remembered that in the beginning, he was beaten up by Scathach every day and then she used runes to heal him.
Even so, I still fell in love with my master... Maybe this is a kind of Stockholm syndrome?
But it’s not that exaggerated. Although the training was hard, I am still happy when I think about it now.
After starting to get distracted and thinking about random things, a flaw appeared in Shiomi's movements. Scathach suddenly released her strength, bent down, and did a side kick.
If he had dodged a little slower, his jaw would have been dislocated.
"Ah...it's really..."
Shiomi was planning to leave the fighting range and end the increasingly intense sparring, but Scathach turned over and clamped her neck with a scissors kick.
"That won't do. Everyone is watching us." Scathach looked very excited.
She grabbed Shiomi's arm and locked Shiomi's movement with a cross armlock.
In a pure battle of strength, Shiomi would not actually lose to his master, but if he continued, it would very likely turn from a drill into a real fight, and he would inevitably get injured.
Even if it can be recovered quickly, it will always be troublesome.
"Can I admit defeat?" Xi Jian complained, "Besides, no one is watching. It's like a boxing match."
