After clearing Type Moon, start fighting for a better world

At that time, because he caused a bit of a stir when dealing with matters related to Roya and Elquet in Misaki City, he was sent to a parallel world by Jewel-O in the name of hiding from the limelight. That parallel world happened to be the parallel world where the Holy Grail War took place.

In order to support his family, and with the requests for help from the Suppression Force, Xia Chuanhu had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the Holy Grail War with Gray who was possessed by Jeanne d'Arc.

The Servant he summoned at that time was Mordred.

After all, he was considered a half-Servant at the time, with the power of Arthur Pendragon in his body. It could be said that he was a holy relic himself. If he summoned it, no matter how you look at it, it would only be a Servant of the Round Table.

Although there were some minor incidents when Mordred was summoned just now, after that, Natsukawa Tora and she easily defeated the Holy Grail War and snatched back the Greater Holy Grail that Amakusa Shiro had longed for and used it as the power source for the magic suit he developed himself.

However, after coming into contact with the Holy Grail and knowing the past through its power and letting go of his inner desires, Mordred regained his body and lived a long life in the world. Later, in the Fifth Holy Grail War, he and Artoria, who was also summoned by Natsukawa Tiger, performed a story of loving father and filial son.

Of course, the relationship between Natsukawa Tiger and Mordred cannot be simply summarized as the relationship between [Master] and [Servant].

Just like how Mordred addressed Natsukawa Tora, since he was once a half-servant of King Arthur, in addition to his master, Mordred also regarded Natsukawa Tora as his father.

When conquering the seventh singularity that year, because Natsukawa Tora single-handedly burned and suppressed the tide of chaos brought by Tiamat for two whole days, in order to replenish his depleted magic power, Mordred acted like a rebellious daughter and even dragged in Altria, who had been incarnated for various reasons during the Fifth Holy Grail War.

The result is that the relationship between Natsukawa Tora and the Round Table servants, including Mordred, is completely messed up.

He is both King Arthur and King Arthur's partner, plus what's going on between him and Morgan... Honestly speaking, this is a relationship that can only be described as "your social circle is so messy."

And the reason for all this was simply because he accidentally summoned Arthur Pendragon during the Fourth Holy Grail War. That was the root and starting point of why he became what he is today.

【Hu~~~Ha~~~~! 】

After absorbing sufficient energy from his father in his father's arms, Mordred let go with a satisfied look on his face.

[It feels much better. Thank you, Father.]

[It's okay. This isn't the first or second time you've done this. There are many people like you at home.]

Although Xiachuan Hu is the head of the family, he is basically treated as a public stress-relieving object at home. For example, Atalanta, who has been a teacher since she took on the body, always treats him as a cat climbing frame or a pillow and rubs him hard for a long time after grading test papers or coming back from overtime.

For example, every time after Olga Marie finished her bullshit with the old guys in the Clock Tower, she would nestle in his arms and vent her anger and curse the undead people in the Clock Tower.

For example, there is a gangster daughter with the Mystic Eyes who always uses him as a sandbag to test her knife skills. It's a pity that she hasn't gotten tired of this trick since high school and now after getting married.

[By the way, Father, you want to be alone with me, so you must have something to tell me, right? ]

[Well - actually I have already met Orange, Jeanne, and Mellie, and learned a lot from them...]

Xia Chuanhu briefly told Mordred about his experiences in the past few years and also explained his current situation.

As he listened to Xia Chuanhu's story, Mordred's expression gradually became serious.

[Hmm, eh? That's how it is. Honkai and Herrscher... I haven't heard about these things from Mei and her father, but I have seen things called Honkai beasts. I didn't expect that there are such enemies in this world - but what surprised me even more is that you, father, are actually so seriously injured now.]

[Injury is secondary]

Xia Chuanhu touched his chest.

[As long as I pull out the object that penetrates my chest, I can heal this level of injury in a few minutes. The biggest problem is that I am too far away from the Earth now, so it is difficult for me to interfere with the Earth. This is the limit now.]

[If a Herrscher really appears, I basically can’t help now. ]

How long had it been since Mordred last heard such words? His father had said so bluntly that he was currently powerless, which meant that Xia Chuanhu's current situation was so difficult and thorny to solve.

Mordred calmed down and said, "So, father, do you want me to fight with you? Of course I will—"

[I know you will say that, Xiao Mo]

Xiachuanhu interrupted Mordred.

[But if it's just that, Orange, Jeanne, and Melie will all say so. However, in the current situation, I don't think I can rely on any of the three of them.]

[Joan of Arc probably can't exert enough combat power at present because of the battles in the pre-civilization period. You know Orange's level. She is better at research and making things happen than on the actual battlefield. As for Merry...she can be trusted, but the probability of her doing something secretly is as high as 1000%. I can't guarantee what surprises she will prepare for me.]

[So as it stands now, the only one who can fight with me like before is you, Xiao Mo - can you exert your full strength now? ]

All out.

Mordred thought for a moment: [When Mei encountered Honkai Beast before, I did possess her and attacked her, but that was far from my full strength, and I was just moving my hands around casually, so I can’t really say whether I could really exert my full strength. After all, there are more or less some limitations when possessing her.]

[But, as long as you need me, my father, I will do my best to help you no matter what! I swear in the name of Knight Mordred! ]

[That would be great]

Xia Chuanhu breathed a sigh of relief.

In terms of importance, he definitely wanted to get in touch with Mellie first, but compared to Mellie, who might trip him up or make trouble for him at any time, Mordred, whom he met suddenly, was a more trustworthy person - his own child, how could he not trust him?

[Then without further ado, Xiao Mo, I have a few more things to ask you]

【About this Yae Shrine——】

19. Yae Miyaji is not a human

Yae Shrine, in Natsukawa Tiger's memory, this is a shrine that disappeared more than 500 years ago.

Because of some events that happened more than 500 years ago in Nagaspang City, which was still called Yae Village, Yae Village disappeared forever in history.

However, this shrine has not only been well preserved to the present day, but has even become the only shrine in Changkong City, and can almost be said to be one of the symbols of Changkong City. Although he could probably guess that this was the result of the intervention of Meili or the World Serpent, Xiachuanhu still wanted to find out what the current situation of the Yae Shrine was.

[This shrine itself is nothing special]

After understanding his father's thoughts, Mordred also explained.

[Mei became a shrine maiden at Yae Shrine shortly after the operation, which was about half a month after I met her. In the following years, she and I spent almost half of our time at this shrine. After all, Mei was a formal shrine maiden, so she was supposed to stay here forever, but her father refused, so she only had to stay here from Friday to weekend.]

[There is really nothing special about this shrine itself. If I have to say anything, it’s just that the Scarlet Fox God enshrined here is a real little fox.]

Xia Chuanhu raised his eyebrows: [Have you seen the true body of the Scarlet Fox God? ]

[Yes, it is in the innermost shrine of Yae Shrine. It is a tiny creature with only two heads and a body. However, this appearance is just its incarnation. I can see that its real body should be the sword in the shrine.]

Knife?

(That's probably Jizo's Soul. Has it been completed? That's right, since Meili and the World Snake intervened in Yaezakura's story, it's only natural that this Key of God has been completed - wait, that's not right.)

Halfway through his thought, Xia Chuanhu suddenly realized a conflict.

(When they were at the Sky Wall before, Kallen was with a little girl named Ling, and in the live broadcast just now, we can see Kallen and Sakura taking Ling to visit the temple fair together. Judging from Sakura's situation, Ling should be her biological sister?)

(But since the Jizo Soul has been completed, it means that Ling has indeed become the Herrscher of the previous civilization and has been made into the Key of God...)

If we follow this line of thought, doesn't that mean that there are two Sakura sisters at the same time?

Of course, the reason why Xia Chuanhu came to this conclusion was that he deduced it according to the situation in his memory. Since Meili and the World Snake interfered, the actual situation must be different from what Xia Chuanhu knew, and there may be an explanation for the above contradiction.

[Oh yeah, if I really have to mention one thing that seems unusual to me, it would be the chief priest of this shrine.]

[That Yae Miyaji? What happened to her? ]

She is not a human

【......Um?】

Mordred's comment made Xia Chuanhu stunned for a moment before he tilted his head.

Yae Miyaji is not a human?

What do you mean?

Mordred and he had met many non-human beings before, hadn't they? What was wrong with this?

[Father, what I mean is that Yae-miya-ji cannot be said to be a human. Although she behaves very much like a human, I would be fooled if I didn't observe carefully. But she should actually be something similar to a Servant, right? Or a ground-bound spirit? A land god? Hmm... It's probably something like this.]

Is Yae Miyashi a land god similar to a Servant?

After hearing this explanation, Xia Chuanhu couldn't help but fall into thought again. After a while, he said: "Xiao Mo, lead the way and take me to see that Yae Gongsi."

[Sure, but Father, don’t you have a limit on the distance you can move? ]

[It's okay, I'll just tell Bronya - Hey, hey, hey, can you hear me? Bronya]

.......

Bronya, who was queuing with Raiden Mei in front of a stall some distance away from Natsukawa Tora and Mordred, couldn't help but cover her ears when she heard a voice suddenly ringing in her mind.

(Bronya can hear it. What's wrong? Brother.)

[I plan to go to the shrine to meet with Yae-giya priest. See if you can get closer and include the shrine in my range of activities.]

(Got it, Bronya, give it a try.)

After replying, Bronya pulled the sleeve of Raiden Mei's kimono and said, "Sister Raiden Mei, Bronya wants to ask you a favor."

"Eh? What's going on?"

"Bronya wants to go to the shrine and take a look."

"Going to the shrine? Of course we can, but it would probably be very crowded there now, right?" Mei Raiden looked at the crowd around her.

She has been a shrine maiden for several years and knows very well how many people will be in the shrine today. Plus, the Kagura dance will start in a few dozen minutes. Many tourists and locals will go closer to the shrine to see the Kagura dance more clearly. Now, probably all the seats at the front are occupied, right?

"Isn't it okay?"

"Well......"

Seeing Bronya's expectant look in her eyes, Mei Raiden's heart suddenly tightened, and then she smiled and said, "I see, then come with me, I'll take you to a good place that I have hidden away."

"Really? Thank you, Raiden Mei."

"You're welcome. Besides, I feel like our ages shouldn't be that far apart, right? I'm 16, how about you?"

"Bronya is 13 years old."

Three years age difference.

Generally speaking, it is not a big difference. Basically, no one would care about this age difference. It is not more than one generation. However, for the two of them now, the three-year age difference does allow them to call each other sister.

"Which way are we going?"

"Come this way - excuse me, guys, please let me pass."

Holding Bronya's hand, Raiden Mei spoke as she pushed through the crowd and walked forward. Perhaps they recognized her identity, the people around them gradually made way for her, allowing the two of them to squeeze out of the crowd smoothly.

After leaving the crowd, instead of taking Bronya towards the shrine, Raiden Mei took her in another direction.

"Sister Raiden Mei? The shrine is over there."

"Yes, I know, but there are so many people over there. It's faster to go this way. It's a small path that only people who live in the shrine know about all year round. Although it's a little farther than the normal road, it's faster to go this way in this situation."

Having said that, Mei Raiden pulled Bronya and continued walking forward.

After hesitating for a moment, Bronya followed.

20. Bishop, you must be strong

Under the guidance of Mei Raiden, Bronya walked into a small path hidden in the bamboo forest around the Yae Shrine, and soon, after walking for a while, Bronya was brought by Mei Raiden to a place quite close to the main hall of the Yae Shrine.

Judging from the distance from the main hall, it is actually closer than the first row of seats for watching the Kagura dance!

"Look, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

Mei Raiden laughed.

"This is an area of ​​Yae Shrine that is not open to the public. If you walk a little further, you will enter the main shrine. Generally speaking, only people related to the shrine can come here. Bringing you here this time is a special case."

"......Thanks."

"You're welcome. I'll show you around, too—but you can't go inside the shrine."

Bronya shook her head: "It's okay, I'm already very satisfied to be able to bring Bronya here, thank you Mei-jie. Can Bronya take a few pictures?"

"Well, please feel free to take pictures."

After getting Mei Raiden's permission, Bronya turned on the camera mode on her phone and aimed the photo at the Yae Shrine that was right in front of her, while trying to contact Natsukawa Tora in her mind.

(Brother, Bronya has already reached this distance, is this okay?)

[Well, thank you for your hard work, Bronya. I have entered the shrine with Xiao Mo. You should stay here as long as possible. Remember to tell me if you want to leave.]

(Bronya knows.)

After temporarily cutting off contact with Natsukawa Tora, Bronya began to carefully take pictures to send to Seele.

.......

on the other hand.

As Bronya approached, Natsukawa Tora also successfully arrived at the interior of the Yae Shrine under the leadership of Mordred.

Unlike the bright and beautiful situation outside, the inside of the shrine seemed a bit dim, with basically only minimum lighting. If Xiachuanhu and Mordred had not been able to see clearly in the pitch-black darkness, it would have been difficult to move forward.
