I really didn't want to burn it.

"Slow down, Your Majesty! I'm old and get dizzy!"

Chaldea.

Leon, who had finally been teleported from Qin to Chaldea, opened his eyes to find the entire Chaldea team fully armed.

Everyone looked at him warily, and Leonardo da Vinci even lit up her staff.

"Hey, is this some kind of overreaction? Aren't we close comrades-in-arms?"

Leon stood up from the ground with a grin, his hands still in the French military salute.

"Um... how about we sit down, have some tea, eat some cake, and chat?"

They've already used everyone, and now they're still pretending to be harmless?

Unfortunately, apart from Li Ang, no one else could hear the complaints from the mourning system.

P.S.: The Maaya Sakamoto reading of "The Moon Coral" originally scheduled for tonight has been postponed. _(:з」∠)_

The official announcement stated that Maaya Sakamoto had been experiencing coughing symptoms for the past few days and underwent a COVID-19 test, which came back negative.

However, for health and safety reasons, it was postponed...

Fortunately, no one was hurt.

I was planning to listen to audiobooks while writing tonight, but now I'll have to listen to Zeta's ending theme. ???

Chapter 34 Those who work in technology are all ruthless.

Temple of Time.

Solomon, or rather Goetia, sat on his throne, listening to Barbatos and Raum, who had returned from the Qin Dynasty, report on the singularity.

It's called a report, but it's basically all empty talk.

Because Goetia could observe the situation of the singularities on its own.

Listening to the reports from the two Demon Pillars was primarily to understand what unique perspectives and suggestions these two subordinates, who had personally experienced singularities, had.

Then, Goetia realized he was wrong.

Apart from Raum saying something slightly constructive at the beginning, the next half hour was all Barbatos's nonsense!

A whole half hour!

For the next half hour, Getia listened to Barbatos's frantic linguistic output, using Ying Zheng's mother as the center and his ancestors for eighteen generations as the radius, employing sensitive organs as the main weapon, biological reproduction as the offensive skill, and incorporating unique verbs and nouns from various fields and industries such as ethics, sex, funerals, animal husbandry, and aerospace!

Commonly known as cursing one's mother.

"My king, let me tell you, that heroic spirit is simply inhuman. A villain like him deserves forgiveness and consent from the king!"

Fornication und consent of the king; adultery with the king's consent; abbreviated as Fuck.

This was just the mildest statement Barbatos had made in the past half hour.

It can be said that Barbatos used his life's work in those half hour, taking the act of swearing to its extreme.

Anyway, Ying Zheng wasn't in the Temple of Time, so he didn't know he was being insulted, nor would he hear what was being insulted.

So Barbatos sauce, don't stop!

"enough!"

Finally unable to bear the incessant chatter of his subordinates, Goetia slammed his fist on the armrest of the throne.

"Yes."

Barbatos quickly shut his mouth.

"Pah, you two useless pieces of trash!"

Goetia spat at the two Demon Pillars.

"You have really lost all face."

"I'm sorry, King."

"Your Majesty, you have no idea, that servant is truly..."

"Hmph, no matter how strong they are, they are just a mere Servant. To be killed like a chicken is a disgrace to this king!"

"That's no ordinary Servant..."

"Still making excuses!"

Barbatos fell silent.

Raum, on the other hand, behaved very obediently. Since Barbatos was jumping around like this, he just kept his eyes open and mouth shut, like a clay sculpture.

"You may all leave now. I will contact you if I need anything."

Goetia waved his hand dismissively, showing little interest.

"Yes……"

Barbatos breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that he had not been punished.

After the two demon gods left, a fox that had been hiding in the shadows finally revealed itself.

"Oh dear, I never expected our King Solomon to have such a fiery temper."

Koyanskaya leaned against the throne and sneered at Goetia.

Goetia retorted directly: "How can you still laugh so happily? Is it really that funny that all your plans for that singularity have failed?"

Koyanskaya regretfully twirled her pink hair with her fingers.

"There's nothing I can do. It's Xu Fu's fault for not following the plan. It was someone else who gave her the idea, which allowed her to successfully complete the contract, but she can't even do this small thing right."

Goetia complained, "Hmph, if it weren't for your meddling, Barbatos's army wouldn't have collapsed so completely! They might have already invaded Qin territory."

"Oh dear, you don't actually think those rabble can shake the rule of Qin, do you?"

"Besides, he's just a businessman," Koyanskaya replied with a sly smile. "That Grand Preceptor already gave me a deposit, of course I have to reciprocate!"

"In the end, didn't that person still defect to Chaldea?"

"Not necessarily."

Recalling Ying Zheng and Li Ang's strange behavior, Koyanskaya always felt that Li Ang was not of one mind with Chaldea.

Goetia really wanted to ask Koyanskaya for more details, but she gave up on the idea.

Although they are both Beasts, their relationship is not so close that they can talk about anything.

Especially when it comes to human affairs, even though the ultimate goals of the Beasts are similar, the ways and processes by which each Beast pursues them are significantly different.

At most, we can say that Beast's plan is similar in general direction, so they can communicate with each other, but it's far from being able to have heart-to-heart talks.

Judging from the various ways Goetia and Koyanskaya sabotage each other in the Qin Singularity, it's clear that their relationship isn't good, and they can't even be considered as allies.

The reason Goetia didn't turn against Koyanskaya was because there was still something to do with the Qin Singularity.

Although Goetia's arrangements were driven out of the Qin Singularity, the Chaldea on the other side were in the same situation.

The Holy Grail has not been retrieved, the singularity still exists, and it will continue to develop.

As for Koyanskaya, the fact that Leon and Chaldea are getting together again is a bad thing for her.

However, since Xu Fu was taken back by Ying Zheng, she had achieved more than half of her goal.

Overall, the current situation of the Great Qin Singularity is neither a bad thing nor a good thing for them.

Koyanskaya, fanning herself, asked Goetia listlessly, "Where do you think the next singularity we'll be conquering in Chaldea will be?"

"Why do you think they won't re-attack the Qin singularity?"

"impossible."

Koyanskaya grinned, revealing her tiny canine teeth.

"That Grand Preceptor went to great lengths to kick Chaldea out of his territory, not to invite them back."

----------------

"Um... how about we sit down, have some tea, eat some cake, and chat?"

Seeing the Chaldea members fully armed and wary of him, Leon tried his best to give them a friendly smile.

Da Vinci narrowed his eyes slightly: "Our relationship isn't that good yet, is it? Besides, with your pet around, we can't really relax."

"Aww—Meow~"

Phil, in his golden dragon form, raised his head and roared.

The group, who had just returned from the Great Qin Singularity, realized that the dragon was still there. They quickly got up from the ground and moved towards the wall.

Because the previous battle was so shocking, Mash and the others felt tense and their bodies naturally tensed up when facing the golden dragon.

"Aww—Meow!"

Phil let out a threatening yet triumphant roar at Red A.

"What...what do you want to do?"

Red A can clearly see Phil's scarlet tongue and sharp fangs in his mouth.

"Woo~~~"

Phil lowered his head as close to Red A as possible and sneezed loudly at him.

Red A, his face sprayed with dragon spittle, forced back his urge to become a spirit and stiffly said, "I'm really sorry I accidentally hurt you earlier."

However, Phil ignored him and turned to lean closer to Mash, whimpering affectionately.

However, its terrifying and imposing appearance made this action keep everyone on edge.

"Is this... is it trying to charm Mash?" Ritsuka wondered.

It seemed to realize that its enormous size was making its actions counterproductive.

Phil's body emitted a soft, radiant light, and his enormous form began to slowly shrink...

"Meow~~~"

The black cat nimbly landed in Mashu's arms, letting out a joyful meow and snuggling tightly against her.

"Um... Phil-chan?"

Phil first rubbed his beard against Mashu's little face, then buried his body directly in Mashu's cotton candy.

"Meow (this is so comfortable)~"

Phil patted the soft marshmallow and let out a satisfied cry.

Incidentally, Phil gave Fou a disdainful look.

"Fufu!"

Fou showed Phil her sharp teeth.

But before Fou could pounce on the wretched black cat to reconsider their positions on Mashu, it was taken away.

"Ugh...you two, stop messing around and be quiet."

Da Vinci grabbed Fou by the scruff of her neck and tossed her to Romani, telling him to keep an eye on her.

Then, Leonardo da Vinci walked up to Leon and extended his hand.

"Grand Preceptor of the Great Qin, we have finally met."

Li Ang took the initiative to shake hands, saying, "Don't use that title. I strongly suspect that I've already been fired by A-Zheng."

"Then I'll call you Li Ang, okay? You can also call me Da Vinci-chan~" Da Vinci introduced himself with a smile.

"Soup..."

Li Ang's lips twitched twice.

"Any questions?"
