The trees in the forest ahead had all evaporated, leaving only a charred, blackened ground covered with purple lightning bolts, forming a straight path leading deep into the Linglong Mansion.

"Let's go."

Lin Jiu'an led the way inside, with Miyamoto Musashi following closely behind.

Brunhilde took a deep look at Lin Jiu'an, who had unleashed an attack with power comparable to a Servant's Noble Phantasm but seemed completely unaffected, before following him inside.

But just a few dozen meters away, a sudden gust of wind blew through the intact trees beside them.

Accompanied by the rustling sound of the leaves being blown by the wind.

Countless leaves fluttered down, the dense foliage completely obscuring their view of each other and their surroundings.

A large portion of it also fell onto the scorched earth.

Then, merging into the ground, the scorched earth was visibly healed, and then lush green saplings sprouted from it, enveloping the three of them in the forest.

"Is this okay?"

Lin Jiu'an's lips twitched slightly, but he didn't seem too flustered.

If she can recover, then she can just destroy herself again.

Since he has the Black Grail of Yusatis supplying him with magic, Lin Jiu'an feels that even the magic power that the Ise-san clan, who can supply Ramses II with the high-powered operation of the Sky Temple, might not be as much as his own.

"Musashi, Brunhilde, stay close..."

As they were talking, Lin Jiu'an suddenly realized something, turned his head and his pupils contracted.

The two women who had been following him closely had disappeared without him noticing.

He was left all alone, standing alone in the forest, which was surrounded by trees and where there was no moonlight.

"When?"

······

The falling leaves, scattered everywhere, lost the support of the wind.

Brunhilde was only able to see her surroundings when she realized that Lin Jiu'an and Miyamoto Musashi, who had been right beside her, had disappeared.

"A maze?"

Brunhilde frowned slightly, then suddenly looked ahead with a focused gaze.

"Come out."

The sound of footsteps crunching on fallen leaves came from behind the tree ahead, and when Brunhilde saw the figure emerge from behind the tree, her pupils suddenly contracted.

"Long time no see," the man said with a nostalgic smile.

······

The open space next to the villa surrounded by trees.

Morgan stood quietly by the lake, her blue eyes beneath the veil showing neither joy nor sorrow.

Melyuchina stood behind her like a knight.

In the lake in front of them, three mirrors floated on the surface, reflecting the locations of Brunhilde, Miyamoto Musashi, and Lin Jiu'an.

Brunhilde was confronting Siegfried, her expression complex and pained.

Miyamoto Musashi kept walking forward in one direction, but in reality, she was just circling around in a range of no more than fifty meters.

Foolish warrior.

Meiliuqina shifted her gaze to the last water mirror.

The handsome young man, whose beauty even she couldn't help but want to keep staring at, had his eyes closed and remained motionless.

What is he doing?

Mei Liuqina frowned slightly.

She didn't understand what the other party was doing, just as she didn't understand why His Majesty hadn't sent her into the maze to deal with them.

However, Meliuchina did not ask or question anything. She knew she was being foolish and just needed to do as His Majesty instructed.

“They’re here,” Morgan suddenly said.

Mei Liuqina was taken aback.

Then they saw a change in the water mirror reflecting Lin Jiu'an's image.

The boy, who had been keeping his eyes closed, opened them, looked up at the sky, as if he were looking at them through layers of void, and a smile of excitement appeared on his lips.

"Got you."

Meiliuqina only heard the sound of lightning crackling.

Lin Jiu'an's figure had already disappeared from the spot.

The next second, the trees somewhere nearby were suddenly torn apart by lightning, and Mei Liuqina turned her head sharply.

They saw the lightning that had just disappeared flash across the grass and the lake in an instant, finally stopping in front of them.

At that very moment, Melyuchina finally saw the lightning clearly. It was the boy who had just disappeared in the water mirror, wearing a slightly manic smile, raising his long sword towards Morgan, and then...

Fall.

PS:

As expected, the initial order of around 500 is considered normal for a flop.

I originally planned to post this chapter early the day after tomorrow, but thinking about it, it seems like a long time, thirty-six hours. I feel like some people might suspect that I'm abandoning the project, so I'll post two chapters now, which will add up to about 30,000 words. Please read on and subscribe.

Then the next update will be more stable, around 8,000, depending on the situation.

Chapter Seven: Meiliuqina: Your Majesty, save me! (Please read and subscribe!)

Lightning flashed across the lake, splashing up waves on both sides.

The wind lifted Morgan's veil, revealing her stunningly beautiful face, which remained indifferent even under the lightning.

'Dang!'

Just as Lin Jiu'an's lightning-streaked longsword slashed down, Mei Liuqina stepped in front of Morgan to block it.

With exquisite skill, one sword blocked Lin Jiu'an's longsword and deflected some of its force the instant the other sword struck Lin Jiu'an's blade, thus neutralizing Lin Jiu'an's sudden attack.

Having failed in his attack, Lin Jiu'an quickly retreated and stood on the water's surface.

"really."

Looking at Mei Liuqina blocking Morgan's way, Lin Jiu'an felt a headache coming on.

The Servant also has the ability to summon other Servants, right?

“Yusatis”.

The pitch-black substance peeled away from his back, forming Yusatis in his Black Grail form.

"Master, why did you call me out?" As soon as she appeared, Yu Satis hugged Lin Jiu'an from behind with a bewitching smile, rested her snow-white chin on Lin Jiu'an's shoulder, and breathed hot air into his ear.

"You stall Morgan for now."

After Lin Jiu'an finished speaking, he transformed into lightning once again and charged towards Mei Liuqina. Their swords clashed, and Lin Jiu'an carried her to another battlefield.

Morgan's gaze followed Lin Jiu'an's figure.

Just now, she seemed to have sensed a familiar aura from this strange and complex "beast"?

"Your enemy is me."

Morgan turned to look at Yusatis, who was standing on the lake.

This once pure and noble saintess is now dressed in red and black, symbolizing depravity and desire, with a seductive smile on her lips.

"Although I have no interest in you, for the sake of my master's reward, I'll ask you..."

The lake at Yusatis's feet, centered on her, was polluted with blackness, and without warning, waves rose and swept towards Morgan on the shore.

"Let yourself fall."

······

One minute later.

"Owner!!!"

The mournful cry of Yusatis rang out.

Lin Jiu'an, who was exchanging blows with Mei Liuqina, glanced at the scene and saw that Yu Satis, who had been so arrogant just moments before, was now being beaten by Morgan and running away with his head in his hands.

"We must finish this quickly."

Lin Jiu'an wasn't too surprised.

Although Yusatis was born with the "Black Grail" in her form, she had a very high starting point, and with her almost inexhaustible mana, she could easily overpower many Servants.

But she was still just a 'child' less than a year old, and she had almost no ability to fight back against Morgan, the fairy queen who had lived for thousands of years in the Lostbelt.

'Dang!'

It was another clash of knives and swords.

Seeing Mei Liuqina swing her longsword again, Lin Jiu'an charged forward without hesitation.

'Puff!'

He watched helplessly as the longsword struck his opponent, leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound in his abdomen.

It was Melyuchina who was stunned.

In their brief exchange, she could sense that his swordsmanship was very strong, and she shouldn't be able to defeat him in a short time. So why is he suddenly charging at her sword like a madman?

While Meiliuqina was in a daze...

Ignoring the blood gushing from his chest, Lin Jiu'an lunged at Mei Liuqina head-on.

"court death."

Meiliuqina quickly realized what was happening.

Although he didn't understand why Lin Jiu'an was doing this suddenly, he still thrust his sword towards Lin Jiu'an's chest.

The long sword pierced through Lin Jiu'an's chest.

Blood splattered everywhere.

But what happened next left Meiliuqina bewildered: Lin Jiu'an's actions were completely unaffected by the injury, which would have been fatal to any human or servant. He only paused briefly before continuing to pounce on her.

"How can it be?!"

Meiliuqina was shocked and momentarily lost her composure, wondering whether to continue the attack or retreat.

Mei Liuqina didn't realize what was happening until Lin Jiu'an grabbed her arm.

"Got you."

"Go away!"

Although she didn't understand what kind of monster the other party was, Mei Liuqina immediately unleashed her magic to retreat and create distance, but Lin Jiu'an simply held her tightly.

His body was surrounded by flashes of lightning.

The two bodies, tightly embracing each other, were instantly enveloped in dazzling lightning, with countless bolts of lightning spreading from Lin Jiu'an's body to Mei Liuqina's.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?!?!"

Meliuchina let out a piercing scream.

However, despite the pain and intense numbness, Mei Liuqina unleashed her magic, trying to break free from Lin Jiu'an's embrace.

But the opponent was too strong, and with the lightning still acting on her, Meiliuqina was unable to break free. Instead, she moaned incessantly under the continuous electric current, her eyes rolling back.

Wait until the electrotherapy is over.

Mei Liuqina's delicate body twitched twice, and her head tilted to the side as she fell into Lin Jiu'an's arms.

Her once cold face was now covered in tears, her beautiful eyes, which were now open but lifeless, no longer had golden pupils, and her pink tongue was sticking out, constantly drooling.

He kept muttering, "No, no..."
