My mother's love song

Awesome...I am indeed the head of the family here, Rhodes suddenly had such an unrealistic feeling.

He sat down at the head of the dining table and looked over the sumptuous breakfast placed in front of him.

A fried egg, instant kelp, pickled salmon, pickles, tofu, miso soup, and a bowl of white rice is a standard Japanese breakfast for middle-aged and elderly people.

After living in Japan, Rod discovered that breakfast set meals such as natto and miso soup that often appear in anime are not common at all. Most young people have sandwiches, rice balls or bread for breakfast.

It seemed that Morgan and Altria were arguing over the breakfast dishes just now.

Morgan was in a bad mood: "Lacner, why didn't you buy bread when you ordered takeout?"

"Caster, of course you have to eat white rice in the morning!"

The Eternal King of Britain, who had been "poisoned" by oriental food these days, answered righteously.

Rhodes cracked a raw egg into the white rice, then poured in soy sauce and stirred.

"Regarding today's work arrangements, Caster and I will patrol the streets during the day, and Lancer will be in a group with me at night. Is that okay?"

"……Well."

"……Um."

The girls nodded as they picked up their chopsticks.

Rhode took a bite of rice and said while chewing, "Today's focus is on the Tosaka family and the church. We must find clues about Kyouko. As time goes by, I have a bad feeling."

"..."

Altria, Morgan, and Irisviel raised their heads at the same time. They first glanced at Rhodes, and then looked at each other.

"Also, I thought that Einzbern City should take advantage of the peace these few days to add some defensive fortifications."

"What is the purpose of increasing fortifications?" Irisviel asked.

"We will most likely be targeted by the remaining magicians. After all, on paper, we have overwhelming strength."

Morgan answered on behalf of Rod.

"If it were me, I would definitely form an alliance with other magicians and prioritize destroying this place."

“Yes, that’s what it is.

Just the two glorious names of King Arthur and Fairy Queen are enough to scare the magicians to death, not to mention that we also have the strategic weapon of Zealot."

"..."

The three girls put down their chopsticks again and looked at each other.

Altria and Morgan were not happy with Rhodes' flattery, and a trace of confusion appeared on the sisters' faces.

"So I was thinking, instead of waiting for others to launch a surprise attack, why don't we just wait for them to attack Einzbern City.

After we find Zealot, we will declare war on the remaining four teams."

Rhodes expressed the opinion he had thought of last night.

It’s too troublesome to destroy the remaining teams one by one, so just take them down in a team battle.

At this moment, Irisviel timidly spoke as if she had mustered up her courage.

"Um... Lord Rhodes."

"Ally, what's wrong?"

"Who is this [Kuang Xinzi] you've been talking about?"

"what?"

Ai Li, have all the nutrients from your brain grown in your breasts?

Rhode gave her this look, and received a surprised look in return.

She tilted her head and asked, "So, who is this person called [Kuang Xinzi]? Is she the foreign aid you found for the Holy Grail War?"

"This joke is not funny at all. Didn't I introduce you to... um, is this true?"

Rhodes looked at Altria and Morgan beside him. The two sisters had the same reaction as Irisviel.

The two of them frowned slightly, with questions in their eyes.

They were all seriously troubled by the question "Who is Kyouko?"

"…What's wrong, Master?"

Morgan showed a worried look. It was the first time she saw Rhodes with such an expression.

"..."

He wordlessly put the bowl on the table, took a deep breath and shook his head.

"No, it's nothing, don't worry about it. Ellie was really too much last night... I was still groggy this morning."

"...Huh!? What do you want? Lord Rhodes, please stop talking nonsense!"

Instantly, Irisviel's face turned red.

Morgan gave her an absolute zero look filled with murderous intent.

"Wow... I never knew you have such a pure face but such a slutty heart, the eldest lady of Einzbern."

Chapter 065: The King is feasting, the sister is having a tryst [5K]

Darkness fell once again in the forest of Einzbern.

As soon as breakfast was over, Rod locked himself in the room, claiming he was not feeling well, and did not leave the room for the entire day.

After delivering dinner to Rhodes' room, Irisviel stood in the corridor, looking out the window at the deep sea of ​​trees and sighed deeply.

What will happen in the next Holy Grail War?

I'm afraid it will be a complete victory for Rhodes.

No matter how powerful the remaining servants are, they will not be able to gain much advantage in front of the strongest King Arthur and Morgan.

In the eyes of Ellie, who knew the anecdotes of previous Holy Grail Wars, Rhodes was undoubtedly the strongest Master in the history of the Holy Grail Wars.

Existence itself has already surpassed the scope of a magician, and even Artoria agrees with this.

Irisviel thought that Rhodes had almost secured victory.

"After Rod obtains my [Greater Holy Grail], what will he do with me?"

Having already resigned herself to her fate, Irisviel now only has this one question to worry about: What exactly is the child's wish?

Suddenly a roar sounded in her ears.

Not only that, the roar that tore through the darkness also placed a huge strain on her magic circuits, and the dizziness almost caused Irisviel to fall down in the corridor.

The resulting surge of magical power meant that the barrier in the forest outside the city was under attack.

"What's going on... the enemy's frontal breakthrough?"

At this moment, a pair of strong arms supported Irisviel's waist.

“It’s Rider.”

Rhodes, who had come to her side at some point, said.

"Lord Rhodes, are you alright now?"

Irisviel glanced at his face. It seemed that the boy was in a bad mood rather than feeling physically unwell.

Rhode said noncommittally: "Ellie, take Lancer with you to meet them, Morgan and I will ambush in the rear."

Irisviel nodded upon hearing this.

Then, she and Lancer ran through the castle, heading straight for the terrace outside the entrance.

"Hey, Knight King! I came here specially to meet you, come out soon, ok?"

He was a giant man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, red hair and tangled muscles.

There was no doubt that the enemy who had entered the main gate was the King of Conquerors, Iskandar.

Artoria protected Irisviel behind her and questioned him with full energy.

“…Rider, what are you doing here?”

"Hey, Lancer. I heard about the castle here and wanted to come and see it. It's really a nice castle, huh?"

Rider smiled without any shame, showing his teeth, and then he moved his neck in a serious manner.

"But for a castle, there are too many trees in the backyard. I almost got lost before I reached the city gate, so I cut some for you. Thank me. The view is much better now."

"Rider, after doing something so reckless, you don't think you can leave safely, do you?"

Altria stared at the giant with a cold expression and spoke calmly.

Rider laughed heartily at the extremely beautiful face full of anger, raised the barrel in his hand and shook it in front of them.

"Well, well, don't be angry, Knight King. I came here to drink with you."

"..."

Lancer observed Iskandar with her beautiful yellow-green eyes. The giant in front of her indeed had no intention of fighting.

Faced with such a seemingly harmless opponent, she could do nothing even if she wanted to get angry and could only sigh helplessly.

"Master, what should I do?"

At this time, Rhodes was still sitting on Morgan's lap.

He had been depressed for the whole day because of the disappearance of Kyouko, so he decided to act coquettishly in Morgan's arms.

In the attic on the top floor of the castle, Morgan held the boy on his lap, and the two watched every move in the atrium.

Unlike the cold garden, Caster used magic to raise the temperature in the attic, making it as warm as a greenhouse.

"There's nothing wrong with that. Just drink with him. This is a challenge from the King of Conquerors to the King of Knights. Let him see your kingly style."

After Rhode answered the Knight King, the Knight's sister's long eyelashes trembled slightly.

"..."

Altria was secretly surprised.

Rod asked, "Did I say something wrong?"

"No, come to think of it, this is the first time you've given me a formal order."

Lancer's tense expression relaxed and she chuckled.

"It's a little late to say this now, but we might get along well, Master."

At least, they get along better than Altria's previous master.

"Are you talking about the physical attributes?"

"It would be better if you could correct your habit of speaking dirty words."

The conversation with Altria came to an end.

Rhodes looked up helplessly and looked at Morgan who pouted his cherry lips with a wry smile.

At some point, Morgan's white arms, as slender as scallions, tightly wrapped around his waist like a python.

"Um... Miss Caster, you're hugging me too tightly. I can't breathe."

The King of Conquerors said this after noticing that the King of Knights' expression was becoming more and more calm.

"It looks like you've already come up with the answer. If that's okay, let's settle the issue over a glass of wine."

"Interesting, I accept your challenge."

Lancer, who received his Master's order for the first time in this world, responded resolutely, exuding a majestic aura like that of a battlefield.

It was not until now that Irisviel realized that they were not joking, but were actually fighting a real battle.

……

The banquet was held next to the flower bed in the castle courtyard.
