My mother's love song

Especially, when you believe your assistant is not trustworthy.

Rhodes gave a malicious smile.

Kuang Xinzi's eyes were blurry and dazed, and she subconsciously changed her position in her master's arms, so that her sideways body was closer to his chest.

After listening to the dynamics of other families, Rhodes restrained his smile.

"The last surveillance target... How is Caster?"

Yes, Morgan was also one of Fanatic's targets, and she had been instructed to monitor his every move long ago.

When she first received the order from her master to monitor Caster, even Kyouko was surprised. She thought that her master and that woman had already been in a relationship of one mind and one soul.

Huh... turns out that’s not the case.

So, I am the master's most loyal servant...!

Thinking of this, Kuang Xinzi was full of energy when monitoring Morgan these days.

The assassin closed his eyes and thought for a moment before speaking.

"Caster is still in the room carrying out her 'plan'."

"Hmph..." Rhodes nodded noncommittally. "What about yesterday morning? Did she say anything when I landed in Tokyo?"

"Yesterday morning, she said that she couldn't use the Command Spell to stop your actions, Master." Kei Shinko answered truthfully.

"……Oh."

Hearing this, Rhodes showed the happiest expression so far today and seemed to be very satisfied with the answer.

Looking at the boy who was obviously getting excited, Kuang Xinzi's cheeks also felt slightly hot.

She said with an intoxicated look on her face.

"Master...are you going to punish Caster for betraying you? If so, please leave it to me..."

""

Rhode's eyebrows twitched slightly, and the assassin shut his mouth and his rosy face turned pale.

“…S-Sorry. Sorry, Master.”

The girl's back muscles in Rhodes' hands became extremely stiff. It was because she was the best assassin that she could sense her master's displeasure in an instant.

"…Ah, don't be so nervous, Assassin."

Realizing that he had accidentally revealed his feelings, Rhodes smiled and patted her back gently.

"Relax, I just hate it when someone takes my toys away."

"Yes, I'm sorry, my Lord."

Don't call me a fanatic, but Assassin.

Master, he was real just now

The assassin shrank his body, constantly regretting his previous gaffe in his heart.

"Well...but."

Rhodes frowned slightly and sighed.

"We can't keep turning a blind eye to her reckless behavior. If we have the chance, we should give her a warning.

However, that will be after I conquer Einzbern City..." The young man raised the corner of his mouth.

……

……

Chapter 054: Invasion! Einzbern City!

"Let's go, Caster. Let's take this part of Einzbern City."

After enjoying the potato feast made by Princess Morgan, Rhodes dragged the confused Caster out of the hotel.

Winter nights always come early.

As soon as they walked out of the hotel, the sky darkened, making people even wonder if dusk had never come at all.

"Tonight's job is to capture Einzbern City."

Rod explained to Morgan as they walked.

"Look, so many days have passed. There is still no progress in the Holy Grail War. This cannot go on.

Let's let the Einzbern Master of the Three Great Families leave tonight."

"Where's Assassin?"

"Fanatical? I've assigned her another mission." Rhode whistled frivolously. "You and I are enough to handle the small city of Einzbern."

“… Yeah, I see.”

Although Rhodes's frivolous attitude made the serious Morgan a little uneasy, she still refrained from lecturing her Master.

Because in her opinion, Rhode's words implied "Caster is too strong, you are all I need."

But in fact, what Rhodes thought was the opposite.

"Assassin is too damn strong. If we bring her along, the opponent will have no chance to play!"

A fanatic who is proficient in 18 divine skills including searching for enemies, stealth, assassination, hypnosis, poisoning, cursing, and summoning demons, etc., together with a traverser with the third eye, is invincible.

If he gets serious, he can kill the other six masters in one night, no exaggeration.

If Caster knew what Rhode was thinking now, the petty and jealous fairy queen would probably ignore him for a week.

Thinking of this, Rhodes began to flatter her again.

"As expected, you're the only one I can trust with my back, Caster, hehe."

Staring at that cold and beautiful face, Rhodes said seriously.

"What do you think, Caster? After the Holy Grail War is over, just stay by my side and be my woman.

Isn't the real world much more interesting than locking yourself up in a garden?

And I will not treat you unfairly, either materially or physically..."

"Let's not discuss this matter until at least half of the enemy has been eliminated."

Morgan interrupted him calmly.

"If you want me to be your woman, please act in a way that makes me fall in love with you.

For example, correct your frivolous attitude towards confessing your love to a woman before the final battle."

With an arrogant look and a hint of subtle joy on her face, she criticized coldly and mercilessly.

"Also, don't be so blatantly disgusted when someone serves you casserole with potatoes."

"...Ah this."

This woman was indeed difficult to deal with. Rhodes stuck out his tongue.

Let's change the subject.

"By the way, Caster."

"Yes."

"Speaking of which, your sister with whom you have a bad relationship..."

Light and calm.

It was casual, as if they were discussing what to eat for supper.

Rod asked, looking into Morgan's eyes.

"What was King Arthur's real name?"

There was a brief silence.

Arthur is just a title, or a pseudonym.

The Knight King's real name, hidden in history, is Altria.

Altria Pendragon.

Only a handful of people know this name, but there is no doubt that the time traveler Rhodes and the king's sister Morgan are very clear about it.

Caster rolled his eyes. "Isn't Arthur's real name Arthur? The Knight King of the Round Table, Arthur Pendragon."

A long silence.

After hearing this answer, Rhodes' breathing paused for a moment, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

"Ah, yes, that's true. Arthur's real name is, of course, Arthur."

Rhodes nodded, hiding the smile on his face.

This is really...

I discovered some interesting inside information.

……

……

……

After two hours of traveling, the two entered the forest on the outskirts of Fuyuki City.

The forest under the winter night is a veritable sea of ​​trees.

The Einzbern castle was built in the primeval forest, which is in sharp contrast to the prosperous city next to it.

It is said that the Einzberns are the family that obtained the Rhinegold in the legend "The Song of the Nibelungs".

The so-called Rhine gold does not literally mean ten tons of gold, but a kind of magic gift/treasure.

It can be simply understood as a Western version of the cornucopia.

"Inexhaustible supply of gold..."

Walking side by side in the forest late at night, Rhodes became excited after listening to Caster's introduction.

What red dragon doesn't love gold?

What’s more, Lot is the great red dragon in the Bible who shed tears and killed his own mother for treasure.

Perhaps, the image of dragons in later generations as greedy and loving gold was harmed by his reputation.

"Okay, I'll accept Einzbern's gold."

Rod made the decision happily.

"But before I get the gold, let Her Highness the Princess become my property tonight... hehehe."

The witch looked at the happy dragon boy beside her and spoke in a displeased voice.

"You don't intend to kill the other Master? Master, you are so confident that you must have a proper strategy."

The forest is filled with impenetrable magic traps, hiding countless familiars.

The city lord had already noticed the two people's approach when they were 1 kilometer away from the forest entrance.

Therefore, Morgan's concerns are not unreasonable.

"Strategy? Of course I don't have that kind of thing at all."

Rhodes grinned and turned to look forward.

coming.

In front of my sight, two women appeared, as beautiful as pearls in the night.

The silver-colored Knight of the Holy Lancer and the pure-white Princess of Winter.

"Heh..." Morgan raised the corner of his mouth.

"You actually barged into the forbidden area of ​​Einzbern with such brazenness. Lancer and I were looked down upon."
