I really didn't want to burn it.

Therefore, antique shops only sell them as broken modern art replicas, and the prices are naturally not very high.

Gilgamesh, however, felt as if he had been looked down upon and insisted on being ripped off by buying the Noble Phantasm back at its original price.

Then, something interesting happened.

In the same batch of goods sold at that shop, besides Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm, there was also Cú Chulainn's broken Gáe Bolg.

Although Cú Chulainn is not as domineering as Gilgamesh, he will definitely want his weapons back.

The unscrupulous antique shop owner wasn't stupid either. After Gilgamesh offered a high price, he realized the value of these "junk" items and immediately raised the price, soaring the price of the broken gun, which was originally only tens of thousands of yen, to a price that Cú Chulainn could only dream of.

If the price had remained the same as before, Cú Chulainn might have been able to grit his teeth and try to find a solution, but the new price with its string of zeros left him with absolutely no options.

"Damn profiteer, die!"

Cú Chulainn banged on the table and shouted defiantly.

Although with his Servant abilities, he would definitely have a way to get the broken spear back, it's still frustrating.

"Hmm... Pfft—"

Li Ang has once again proven one thing: suppressing laughter is really hard.

PS: Shiki's cooking skills are very high. In an interview, Mushroom even said that Shiki's cooking skills are ranked number one in the Type-Moon world.

Of course, given Mushroom's tendency to retconnive at books, it might have changed by now.

No matter how much she changes, Shi-jie's cooking skills will always be top-notch.

Looking at it this way, among the four main heroines of Type-Moon, Shiki is definitely the most wife-like. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Chapter 145 Kallen: Father, let me take care of you!

"Hmph, I'll definitely find a way to get my gun back."

Finally, amidst the mockery of Leon and Gilgamesh, Cú Chulainn crossed his arms and said unhappily.

"Do as you please, but don't make a big deal out of it," Li Ang cautioned.

“Don’t worry, I’ll leave the money behind,” Cú Chulainn nodded in reply. “Of course, it’ll be the original price that unscrupulous merchant originally set.”

Li Ang originally wanted to say that this would be tantamount to exposing that you stole the things.

But then he realized that this kind of thing could be easily fooled with magic tricks, so he kept quiet.

By the way, while Li Ang and the others were chatting, the waiter who was being driven crazy by Kirei Kotomine finally found a solution.

He personally bought a Mapo Tofu rice bowl from a Chinese restaurant at the other end of the commercial street and delivered it to Mapo.

There are no rules like restaurants not allowing outside dining. Sorry, Tan90°, those don't exist.

For this shop assistant, it would be a blessing if he could just get these troublesome customers to behave themselves.

"Um……"

Kirei Kotomine leisurely ate the Mapo Tofu on his plate. When he noticed that everyone else was looking at him, he asked, "Do you want some too? You can ask the shopkeeper to order some."

Gilgamesh, with his nostrils flared, said, "No thanks, I hate this kind of pig swill the most."

If there was anything that changed about Gilgamesh after all these years in Fuyuki City, it was that he truly hated a certain type of food from the bottom of his heart.

It's worth noting that this arrogant king never speaks properly, but for him to hate something so much, Kirei Kotomine is truly exceptional.

Looking at Mr. Jin, who was filled with hostility, Li Ang silently drank his coffee and kept reflecting on himself.

"So why should I enjoy afternoon tea with these guys?"

Chloris wasn't particularly concerned, but the combination of these three men piqued her interest. Gilgamesh, in particular, seemed to know something about her man's past that she herself was unaware of.

This allowed Lady Flower to ignore Gilgamesh's icy attitude and take the initiative to flip through the menu and introduce it to the King of Heroes.

"Your Majesty, would you like to try some of the desserts and cakes at this shop?"

Gilgamesh sneered, "How could I possibly eat such garbage? If it were that Sab as the waiter, I might reluctantly take a bite."

"Don't even think about it."

Li Ang said angrily.

Although he didn't know Artoria who participated in the Fourth Shinobi World War, what did it matter?

As long as it's Artoria, then Leon is protecting her.

You, Mr. Kim, want her to be your waitress? Dream on!

"Li Ang, do you know who I'm referring to?"

Gilgamesh put his feet off the table.

Li Ang raised his eyebrows at Mr. Jin. "I noticed it yesterday. The way you looked at her was a bit off."

“I have no interest in her words.” Gilgamesh shook his head slightly. “What interests me is that little girl’s stubbornness and pride. The one in black last night has matured completely and is not worth teasing.”

"You really are a pervert."

Li Ang made a definitive conclusion immediately.

Gilgamesh retorted without hesitation, "In return, Leon, you are indeed scum."

“I agree with that,” Chloris asked again. “So you really aren’t planning on ordering anything?”

"Hmph, the fact that I, the King, have graced this shop is already a blessing they've earned over several lifetimes."

Gilgamesh's arrogant words greatly displeased the shop staff, and everyone looked at the king with varying degrees of anger and resentment.

If they weren't afraid this seemingly wealthy guy would cause trouble, the shop assistants would probably have kicked him out immediately.

But Mr. Jin was unmoved by these attempts to curse him, and even seemed somewhat smug.

For him, the resentment of a bastard? What is that? Can you eat it?

"Hey, don't be so picky about food," Li Ang laughed. "I know why you're not as tall as Enkidu, it's all because you're a picky eater."

"That's right, that's right."

Perhaps because he rarely had the chance to criticize Gilgamesh, Cú Chulainn readily chimed in, "Being picky about food isn't a good habit for a king. Unlike me, I'm tall and strong!"

In fact, Cú Chulainn's height of 185cm is only slightly taller than Gilgamesh's 182cm.

But in this kind of situation, no matter how much taller you are, you're still taller, and because I'm taller, I'm right to speak.

"You bastard, you're not a king, do you even know what a king needs?!"

As expected, Cú Chulainn's words aroused Gilgamesh's strong dissatisfaction. He snorted coldly, "The fact that I, the king, am shorter than Enkidu is purely because that guy cheated! Adjusting his height at will... this is not fair competition at all."

Although Li Ang didn't hear clearly what Gilgamesh said next, he could guess pretty much what it was.

“Speaking of which, Gilgamesh, you’re an Archer, right?” Leon asked, tilting his head. “I clearly saw other Archers besides those from my Red Team.”

These words changed the atmosphere at the dinner table.

Kirei Kotomine put down his spoon, calmly wiped his mouth, and explained, "Cheating is a traditional part of the Holy Grail War. I just used a little trick within the rules."

"Huh? What did you say?"

Cú Chulainn's expression immediately changed.

Kirei Kotomine said expressionlessly, "Gilgamesh was my partner Servant in the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City. After being chosen as the Master in this Holy Grail War, I used a little trick to make him my Servant in this war."

"Is that right?"

Cú Chulainn looked at the fake priest with suspicion. He didn't know much about the Servant summoning system, but he vaguely felt that there was something wrong with Kirei Kotomine's words, but he couldn't put his finger on why.

Li Ang understood exactly what Kirei Kotomine meant.

As the war GM, he naturally knew that Kirei Kotomine could summon a single servant, and that the fake priest's so-called "little tricks" were nothing more than deception with lies.

However, Li Ang did not expose Kirei Kotomine's lie. On the one hand, he did not want to reveal his identity as the GM, and on the other hand, he had no obligation to remind his enemy.

As the captain of the Red Team, all Li Ang needs to do is know that Kirei Kotomine has one more Servant and ensure that he is not ambushed.

As for the Black Team...

If Kirei Kotomine doesn't get a little stabbing, is he still the cheerful Father Kirei Kotomine?

However, Kirei Kotomine is Kirei Kotomine after all.

After offering a seemingly reasonable explanation, the priest looked at Li Ang provocatively.

"There is no impartial force like the Church in this Holy Grail War, nor are there specific rules of war. What I did shouldn't be considered cheating, right, Red Team Captain?"

It seems that this cunning fake priest also sensed that Li Ang, the captain of the red team, was suspicious, so he tried to test him with words.

In fact, Kirei Kotomine had wanted to talk to Li Ang for a long time, but he had never been able to find an opportunity.

This is why he remained calm and seated even when faced with such an unpalatable Mapo Tofu.

Indeed, in Kirei Kotomine's eyes, this dish, which is not spicy enough, cannot be called Mapo Tofu at all.

Kirei Kotomine's behavior may seem confusing, but his purpose is actually quite simple.

During the Fourth World War, facing the hell on earth created by the black mud, Kirei felt a strong sense of pleasure.

From that moment on, he was determined to bring forth the true "all the evil of this world".

This is the second reason, besides Kiritsugu Emiya, that he participated in this Holy Grail War.

It doesn't matter whether the Holy Grail is contaminated or not; it only needs to serve as a huge source of magical energy to activate the Greater Grail in Fuyuki City.

Kirei Kotomine is a cautious guy, and he plans very meticulously when he executes his goals.

Just look at FSN, no matter which route, this guy is the most deeply hidden among all the Masters.

It was also thanks to this personality trait that Kirei noticed Li Ang's problem.

Since this person appeared, the little-known city of Kanbuko has suddenly hosted a Holy Grail War, and the connection between them makes Kirei Kotobuki ponder deeply.

Kirei Kotomine believes that the Red Team captain in front of him must have a deeper connection with the Holy Grail War in Kanbuko City.

"Well, I'm just a participant, so of course I can't judge whether you cheated. But..."

Faced with Kirei Kotomine's provocation, Li Ang calmly pointed to a silver-haired girl standing at the shop entrance.

"You should say that to the referee."

Li Ang had been watching the girl who had been standing at the door for a long time.

With GM privileges, Li Ang confirmed that the other party was Rul, one of the 15 Servants summoned in this Holy Grail War—the referee of the Holy Grail War in Guanbuzi City.

To be honest, Li Ang did know that the Holy Grail had summoned a Servant to act as a referee according to the basic rules, but he really didn't expect the Holy Grail to choose Kallen Ordesia.

But Li Ang wasn't angry; on the contrary, he was quite looking forward to it.

Honestly, he really wanted to see the dramatic scene unfold between this seemingly innocent father and daughter.

According to the setting that Li Ang knew, although Father Mapo gave his daughter a name after she was born and then didn't care about her anymore, Karen was very clear about her father's situation and quite despised him.

After all, he was a father who only gave birth to his children but didn't raise them. His wife committed suicide, and he didn't care about his daughter. Instead, he went to Japan to enjoy himself alone, and ended up dying from it.

Karen felt utterly contemptuous that this heartless, scumbag man was actually her own father. Even from a colleague's perspective, she found it utterly repulsive.

So Li Ang was really looking forward to seeing what kind of sparks would fly when this father and daughter met.

If the staff hadn't already avoided their table, Li Ang would have liked to order another soda and a watermelon dessert, and then just enjoy the show.

The silver-haired girl standing at the shop entrance did not disappoint Li Ang. Her eyes lit up instantly when she saw the people at Li Ang's table.

Karen ran quickly to their table, and then...

"Father!"

With a joyful cry, Karen threw herself into Leon's arms.

"????!!!!!!"

Li Ang was completely dumbfounded.

Girl, just how bad are your eyesight?! Your dad's right across the street!

"Huh? Li Ang, can you explain this?"

Chloris's eyes suddenly turned dangerous.
