I really didn't want to burn it.

This isn't a question of whether or not they can win; rather, it's wrong for the king to launch a war for such a rash reason.

Moreover, Artoria didn't want Leon to bear the same infamy as Helen in the future.

"Oh? So you're planning to have a one-on-one fight with Yu?"

Nero defiantly tossed her hair at her temple. "You mere British barbarian dares to challenge me? You think too highly of yourself!"

“I’ve heard that gladiatorial culture is very popular in Rome. Why don’t we settle this with a duel?” Artoria said.

"Shall we have a fight?" Nero raised an eyebrow.

"No, I will lead my Knights of the Round Table into battle," Artoria said with a cold laugh.

Nero is a very strong woman; Artoria felt that the two of them were roughly equal in strength.

Although Artoria was very confident in herself, she had to be completely certain of victory in this battle that she could not afford to lose.

Therefore, Artoria decided to involve her own gang in the attack.

The Knights of the Round Table of Britain have never been afraid of anyone!

To prevent Nero from having a chance to refute her, Artoria deliberately mimicked Leon's previous mocking tone, saying to Nero, "The mighty Rome, surely you can't even find a few outstanding gladiators? Really? Really?"

Nero couldn't stand being looked down upon, so she clenched her fists and shouted, "Bring it on! Who's afraid of who!"

Artoria smiled and said, "Me too."

"Father is right! We Britons are never afraid of people!"

Mordred, who had been hiding, suddenly jumped out and stood with Artoria, issuing a challenge to Nero.

Artoria glanced at Mordred, pursed her lips, but said nothing.

"Who are you?"

Nero felt like he was going crazy when he saw one or two people who looked just like him jump out.

When did my noble face become so cheap? How come everyone looks just like her!

Mordred, clinging proudly to Artoria, declared, "I am Father's child! How can you have a contest with Father without me!"

She cleverly concealed her identity as King Mordred of Britain, making herself appear as merely an important Knight of the Round Table.

In fact, Mordred could have simply given his name without any problem, since a noble Roman like Nero wouldn't bother remembering the name of a barbarian king.

"Hehe, looks like something interesting is about to happen."

Ritsuka stood up abruptly and said excitedly.

"What the hell are you getting so worked up about!"

Ritsuka shook her finger and explained, "There won't be a war between the two countries. Isn't it a good thing that the conflict is focused on a few individuals?"

"Then what about my position?!"

"Tsk tsk." Ritsuka said, pressing on Li Ang's shoulder, "For the sake of humanity, we can only ask you, Mr. Li Ang, Helen Diaochan, Falter, to make do. Don't worry, even if you are taken over by the female Tyrannosaurus, my Mashu will come to save you on a rainbow cloud."

"..."

It's decided. I will make Ying Zheng fill the pool with Darius, so you can collect all 108 treasures of Darius!

Li Ang unleashed the most vicious curse upon Li Xiang.

However, Li Ang also knew that the current situation was better than the two countries launching a direct war.

Of course, it would be even better if Li Ang himself wasn't involved.

“Then so be it. I will gather the Knights of the Round Table scattered throughout Rome.” Artoria formally issued her challenge to Nero. “The specific time and place of the match are up to you.”

"Hmph, that's what I think too."

Nero nodded and clenched his fist tightly.

"What should we do with this spoils of war before that?"

Both sides turned their attention to Li Ang, who had been watching the show from the sidelines.

"I'll just stay in the bathhouse by myself," Li Ang said with an innocent smile.

"That won't do!" *2

Artoria and Nero both rejected it.

Given someone's past record, neither of them felt comfortable leaving Li Ang alone. What if that bastard ran away again?!

Handing them over to the other party to guard is also not an option. What if you win, and the other party just kidnaps you and runs away?

Ultimately, Nero and Artoria reached an agreement through silent communication using only their eyes.

“I will provide a caretaker here.”

"I will send soldiers to assist."

"He stayed at the bathhouse during this time and couldn't go anywhere else."

"We'll take them to the arena on the day of the competition!"

Nero and Artoria each offered a comment, and quickly reached a conclusion.

"Then it's settled. Gawain, stop pretending to be dead."

Artoria nudged Gawain, who was still lying on the ground, with her toe.

"exist!"

The Sun Knight sprang to his feet and gave Artoria a solemn military salute.

“I’m leaving Leon in your care,” Artoria instructed. “If he gets away, I’ll lock you up with the estrus gorilla.”

"My lord, the climate in Britain is not suitable for the mother gorilla... I understand, I guarantee I will complete the mission!"

Gawain, who had been all smiles, immediately straightened up when he saw Artoria's serious expression.

Nero scoffed, "One person is enough?"

"I don't think Your Majesty the Roman Emperor would go back on your word."

"I thought you would follow British tradition and use spanking as a testimony."

At this point, Nero gave a disdainful snort.

Artoria retorted unhappily, "Those traditional customs disappeared long ago after Leon helped popularize education throughout Britain!"

"But if you insist..."

Artoria immediately turned her anger on her silly daughter.

"You stupid girl! How dare you abandon your post and lead people to Britain! You even caused a huge disturbance in Rome! You've completely disgraced Britain!"

Artoria was furious. She grabbed Mordred's ponytail and said angrily.

"I'm sorry! Father! I'm sorry! I won't do it again! I'm breaking off the relationship! I really am breaking off the relationship!"

Mordred covered her head with her hands, looking utterly dejected.

Just like taking her own mischievous child home, Artoria dragged Mordred out of the bathhouse.

Mashu hesitated for a moment, but after seeing Ritsuka's signaling look, she quickly followed Artoria's footsteps.

"Um... Li Ang, please."

Gao Wen gestured apologetically to Li Ang.

Li Ang slapped Gao Wen's hand away, showing him no respect whatsoever.

"Let me make this clear first, I want to stay in my own presidential suite."

"Although I don't know who this president is, Uncle Li, do whatever you want, just please don't run away."

Under the pressure of spending the night with the female gorilla, Gawain's attitude towards Li Ang was very gentle, even with a hint of flattery.

Judging from their attitudes alone, it's hard to tell who is the prisoner and who is the jailer.

Once everyone had left, Nero, standing in the hall, blinked and suddenly realized something.

"Damn it! It was you barbarians, the ones who disturbed my city of Rome, that's it! Morgan! You get back here first! Explain the situation, and then we can discuss compensation!"

Upon hearing this, Artoria, who hadn't gone far, immediately quickened her pace and disappeared into the night as fast as she could.

PS1: It is said that in medieval England, the literacy rate was relatively low.

Therefore, when a contract cannot be signed, a ceremony is held when people transfer property rights, during which the seller hands a tree branch to the buyer.

Then find a child who witnessed the handover and beat him with a tree branch until he remembers the beating for the rest of his life.

In this way, the child becomes a walking contract. (* /ω＼*)

PS2: As the saying goes, one becomes like the company one keeps.

Since Gudako has followed Leon's bad example, it's perfectly reasonable for her to be unlucky for life. 23333

Ahem, just kidding! Who Gudako summons will depend on the story's needs. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Chapter 92 Sanson, the perpetually persecuted servant

"Hahahahaha!"

The jade pendant in Li Ang's hand emitted a hearty (gloating) laugh, much like Lelouch's.

"Li Ang, are you planning to make me laugh to death, and then inherit my position as the retired emperor?"

Ying Zheng mocked Li Ang without any restraint.

“I don’t find it funny at all.”

"No, no, no, this is too funny!"

Ying Zheng explained, his voice trembling, because he had to suppress his laughter while speaking, which made his tone of voice very strange.

"You've been traveling with a beautiful woman for 14 years, and she's your type, but you didn't even realize she was a woman?!"

"Get lost! I like the firm thighs of a young girl, okay!" Li Ang declared his perverted stance with righteous indignation.

Unfortunately, Ying Zheng simply wouldn't listen.

"After learning about what you did in Greece, I thought I knew you well enough, but I never expected you to always come up with something new. Hahahaha!"

Li Ang's lips twitched violently. If he could do it, he would definitely have followed the jade pendant and broken Ying Zheng's nose again.

"There's nothing funny about this, is there?"

Athena, who was also on the phone, spoke up to stop Ying Zheng, which made him laugh a little less.

"Ahem, I forgot you were here too." Ying Zheng asked in a serious tone with a hint of gossip, "So, Goddess Athena, what are your thoughts on this battle for Li Ang?"

“I have absolutely no opinion. But if you feel there is any danger, Li Ang, you can always hide in Greece. In the name of the God-King, I can guarantee your safety.”

Athena's second half of her sentence revealed her true intentions.

Li Ang politely declined Athena's invitation: "Thank you, Athena. But... never mind."

Just kidding. If he leaves Chloris here and runs away alone, Li Ang will definitely face the pursuit of those 3000 of his sisters-in-law. Even if Athena is the God-King, she still won't be able to protect him then.

How's your mission going?

Li Ang decided to shift the topic away from himself and asked about matters related to time-space separation.

"Nothing particularly noteworthy has been made," Athena replied helplessly. "The craftsman is attempting to forge a weapon capable of separating world nodes."

As if confirming Athena's words, Senkomura joined their conversation.

"Let me make this clear first," Senji Muramasa interjected, "I am merely a swordsmith. I can forge weapons according to your specifications, but I cannot use them to cut things. Do you understand?"

Li Ang nodded: "I understand, Grandpa. You just need to do your job well."

Unlike the Servants who returned to their heroic spirits, Muramasa remains in Greece.

During the previous war with Zeus, Leon sent DD to find Muramasa. In addition to confirming with him whether he had tampered with Zeus's weapons, he also made a request to the swordsmith—to have him forge a sword for him.
