Zongman, the journey begins from the wrong place

However, with a powerful enemy at hand, Artoria couldn't dwell too much on whether the backup Master was just a nymphomaniac or was really going to be unfaithful.

For Artoria, who currently has someone to protect, Berserker is the opponent she least wants to face.

If Sora was injured, even if he defeated his opponent, he would probably be severely reprimanded by Kayneth.

What a headache.

But Artoria knew that the more she was worried about something, the more she must not let the enemy find out.

So she did not retreat but advanced, mobilizing the magic power in her body and approaching Noah with a rising fighting spirit.

"So, what do you want? If you want to fight, I'm here for you!"

Noah ignored Altria's advance and walked silently to the claw machine, put in the coins and started operating it.

"Miss, you don't want your Master to be affected in the battle, do you?"

Being hit on the point, Artoria couldn't help but grit her teeth and feel aggrieved.

But looking at Noah showing his back to him, he didn't feel any danger.

"Sora, can you tell me your ability value?"

Although he failed to inherit the seal, Sora was born into a famous magic family in the Clock Tower, so this level of magical ability was naturally no problem for him.

"Strength C, Endurance C, Agility B, Magic B-, Luck A+... No, this guy gives me a very dangerous feeling, definitely more than this!"

Especially this Lucky A+ is very troublesome.

Luck is a very vague and ambiguous statistic, and most of the time it is used to avoid attacks from long-range Noble Phantasms.

The so-called + is a rare parameter that can double the value at a certain moment.

If A+ luck comes into play at a critical moment, it might even render ineffective some Noble Phantasms that are known for their guaranteed success.

But the battle-hardened Artoria felt that this vague category was probably far more difficult to understand than the literal meaning suggested.

"Master, can you hear me? I have a problem here!"

While her opponent's attention seemed to be focused on the claw machine, Altria quickly used the special induction between the Master and the Slave to contact Kenneth who was still setting up in the Hyatt Hotel.

After learning about Noah's number, Kenneth first breathed a sigh of relief, and then the thought that came to his mind was -

"Oh, is this a provocation from a country magician?"

In Kenneth's opinion, the so-called servants are just a group of tool-like familiars, and they don't have their own will.

Altria could also sense this from Kenneth's tone, but silently chose to ignore it.

"Master, what should we do now? Should we cover Miss Sora's retreat?"

While Kenneth was still hesitating, Sora interrupted the conversation.

Although she couldn't hear the conversation between Altria and Kenneth, she could guess a little bit.

"Wait a minute, the other party didn't attack directly. Maybe they have something to tell us? It would be too embarrassing to just run away like this."

Although Sora's words were righteous, Altria could see something very dangerous and passionate in the way she stared at Noah.

Are you trying to uphold the family spirit?

You are clearly lusting after her beauty and coveting her body, how despicable!

For a moment, Altria couldn't help but recall the fear of being plagued by love brain.

But when she wanted to persuade him, Kenneth had already issued the order.

"That's right. If you run away like this, others will think that the Archipelago family are all cowards. Saber, protect Sora. Since he dares to come to us, let's see what he is up to."

If you really want to protect Sora, then don't ask me to deal with it! The real thing is to run!

Knowing that the other party has bad intentions, you still take the initiative to go to their door?

My head hurts so much, what kind of teammates are these!

Knowing Kayneth's temperament, Artoria gritted her teeth and thought about her options for rebuttal.

"But, but Master, this Servant gives me a very dangerous feeling, even for a weak Servant. For Miss Sora's safety, can you let me go alone?"

This time, before Kayneth could say anything, Sora's gaze shifted from Noa to Altria.

"Huh? What do you mean?! Doesn't the Sophiali family's reputation mean it's not theirs?"

——Don’t talk too much!

Feeling the warning in Sora's eyes, Artoria could only sigh and shut her mouth silently.

This engaged couple is indeed equally arrogant and domineering in nature, no wonder they can get together.

Altria suddenly became worried about the prospects of this Holy Grail War.

"In that case, Sora, you just deal with it first. I'll be with you guys shortly."

When Kenneth ended the call and Sora smiled, Noah, who had been operating the claw machine, turned around at the same time, holding several dolls in his arms.

"After talking to your Master, you're not going to just run away, are you?"

Sure enough, this guy's posture of turning his back to me was intentional!

Although she was very troubled by Sora's love-brained personality, Altria still fulfilled her duty and stood in front of Noah.

"So, what exactly is your purpose? If you have any means, you can use them now!"

Artoria really hoped that the other party would attack directly so that she could draw her sword and fight back instead of racking her brains to be on guard.

However, Noah's eyes seemed to see through her thoughts, and he just approached her without any precautions.

"Then what's the purpose? If I have to say what the purpose is, it's just to chat with you guys."

"what?"

"We all come from different times, even different worlds. Wouldn't it be too boring if every time we meet, we just fight and kill each other? Why don't we sit down and talk about our past experiences and feel the beauty of this era? Here, these dolls will be my greeting gifts to the two young ladies."

Does this guy know what he is talking about?

The Holy Grail War is a bloody fight to the death. Do you think you are here for a picnic?

Besides, what’s the difference between talking about his deeds during his lifetime and revealing his real name?

In the Holy Grail War, intelligence has a huge impact on the battle. The servant's true name, attributes, and treasure may affect the victory of the war.

King Arthur is very famous, and giving his name is basically the same as revealing his job description and Noble Phantasm.

Artoria naturally didn't want to accept those dolls. Who knew if they had any special spells or the effects of some kind of treasure?

But looking at Sora's expression next to her, Artoria knew that if she didn't take it, she would probably take it.

It’s better for her to do it herself, since she is good at magic A.

In desperation, Altria had to carefully take the doll from Noah and handed it to Sora after checking it.

Although Sora was the first to become interested in the claw machine, she was only interested in the machine itself and didn't care that there were dolls inside.

Kenneth had given her many things, such as precious gems, luxurious jewelry, gorgeous dresses, and huge rose wreaths weighing several kilograms, but he had never given her anything very girly.

However, even though Sora disliked Kenneth a little, he never blamed her for this. After all, even he himself had never thought that she would do such a childish thing.

How could the room of a girl from a demonic family be filled with pink dolls like ordinary girls?

But at this moment, holding this big ball of stuffed dolls in his arms, Sora felt a strange warmth rippling in his heart.

Burying half of his face in the doll, Sora stole a glance at Noah.

"Thank you, thank you."

As soon as the words left his mouth, even Sora was surprised by the softness of his tone.

However, Noah didn't care too much because he didn't know what kind of woman Sora was.

Of course, it doesn't matter even if he knew. Noah is more interested in this blonde girl who can bring a sense of threat to him.

"Let's go, this guy?"

"Just call me Leah."

Leah, Livilia... I don't think it's good.

"Okay, Miss Liya, it's time for lunch now. How about we go have a meal together and chat while we eat?"

Noah was just talking casually at first, but when he saw the more than ten plates piled up in front of him, he couldn't help but look solemn.

"This child, was he never full when he was alive, or what?"

After finishing another large piece of steak with quick yet elegant movements, Altria wiped her mouth with satisfaction and met Noah's gaze.

"What's wrong? Mr. Sifer, is there anything you want to say?"

Artoria was somewhat aware that her appetite was different from that of ordinary people.

But she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. As a king, she should have enough appetite and tolerance.

But to Altria's surprise, Noah neither gave her a strange look nor passed by silently, but suddenly smiled.

A smile full of fighting spirit.

"Not bad, Miss Liya. This is the first time I've met an opponent who can rival me at the dinner table."

"Oh? You too?"

Artoria seemed to notice something from Noah's eyes and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

Soon, plates of the same height were stacked in front of Noah.

"How can we fight without enough food? To become strong, we must first learn to eat. Eat hard and eat boldly. What do you think, Miss Leah?"

So Artoria also smiled silently, a smile that came from meeting a close friend and a rival.

"From the way you sound, someone who doesn't know would think you've already won. But don't be too happy. Whether on the battlefield or at the dinner table, I've never lost! Boss! Take your order!"

"Hmm! Liya, this Mapo Tofu is a specialty here. I just don't know if you have the courage to try it!"

"Humph! What a joke! I'm not even afraid of tall...even mashed potatoes! How could I be afraid of a mere tofu? Shaha, Shaha!"

Sora chewed his cheeks hard, chewed and swallowed the noodles in his mouth, then gave up eating. He looked resentfully at the two people in front of him who were still eating frantically, and he didn't even have time to pay attention to the increasing number of diners nearby.

How did that happen?

One of them is my servant, and the other is the one who gave me a pillow for the first time, so how come our relationship suddenly became better?

92 Artoria: Let's go! If you lose, follow me back to Camelot!

Fuyuki City is roughly divided into the modern and commercial eastern new capital, and the western mountain town built on the mountainside and mainly composed of traditional residential areas.

What separates the two is the Mion River, which runs through the center of Fuyuki City.

There is a coastal park under the Weiyuan River Bridge connecting Shenshan Town and Xindu.

In summer and autumn, as soon as night falls, a large number of residents gather in the coastal park where the sea breeze blows, to play and enjoy the cool air.

But in the dead of winter, the never-ending humid sea breeze will only make people feel cold from head to toe.

Especially after sunset, the night wind becomes stronger and stronger, blowing on the face like a knife and causing pain.

Therefore, when Noah, Altria and the other two came to the seaside park, there were basically no passers-by.

"Ah! It's finally quiet!"

Although the scenery of the seaside park was not particularly beautiful, Sora had been under the gazes of passers-by along the way, and now that he was finally free, he couldn't help but feel refreshed.

But Altria did not have the leisurely and carefree attitude of Sora, and her clear and beautiful face was covered with a layer of dust.

During the conversation along the way, although Altria did not reveal any information about herself, Noah did not hide anything about his past.

A brave warrior from another world, a world on the brink of destruction, betrayed by his comrades...

For Altria Pendragon, it was all too familiar.

Is this Noah Seifer really not cueing me on purpose?
