One hundred and sixteenth chapter single draw miracle
There is a reason why Bazett trusts Kotomine Kirei.
As an executor, in addition to sealing the designation, she will also perform other tasks.
About six years ago, she and Kotomine Kirei met, and the two collaborated to complete the mission.
Later, they had many intersections in work, became familiar with each other, and collaborated with each other in private.
During the Fourth Holy Grail War, Kotomine Kirei was transferred to the Magic Association as a dispatcher and recommended Bazett to participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War.
Due to various factors, Bazett did not think of any precautions at all.
After all, it is really hard to believe that a friend who has known him for more than six years suddenly stabbed him in the back.
Ten hours later, they got off the plane and took a boat to Fuyuki City.
"Let's go to the Ghost Mansion."
Bazett revealed the residence that Kotomine Kirei had prepared for him.
The taxi driver nodded.
Fuyuki City can be divided into two areas, Xindu and Shenshan Town.
One side faces the sea and the other side is surrounded by mountains.
The Ghost Mansion is located at the foot of the mountain deep in Shenshan Town.
It's an extremely quiet place.
You can tell from the name.
"Is this Miss Bazett?"
The front desk of the Ghost Mansion said with a smile, "Your room has been cleaned and you can check in at any time."
Li Xiang and Astarte joined temporarily, so Bazett hadn't had time to notify Kotomine Kirei.
But it doesn't matter.
Accommodation doesn't cost much.
"Bazett, have your servants been summoned?"
Astati poured three cups of black tea and handed them to Li Xiang and Bazett.
"No, I plan to summon tonight."
Bazett answered truthfully.
"Night is a good time. If you need any help, you can call me."
"Has your junior brother been summoned?"
Bazett glanced at Li Xiang and asked.
"Well, it's a bow level."
Astarte smiled and said, "Many servants have the ability to detect, so the specific ones will be hidden for the time being."
"Why do I think it's you and not your junior brother who participated in the Holy Grail War?"
Bazett asked a little strangely.
"As a senior sister, I naturally have to take care of my junior brother. Otherwise, the teacher will be angry."
Astarte explained casually.
"You have no followers, so it's best to seek shelter from the Holy Church. You must know that in the last Holy Grail War, Lord El-Melloi unfortunately lost his life."
"I see."
Astati put down the teacup and said, "The Holy Grail War hasn't started yet, so there's no need to rush. We'll just get the news in the next few days. It's the saying goes: "Knowing the enemy knows the enemy."
Bazett nodded in agreement.
Astarte and Li Xiang left after drinking tea.
Their room is not far next door.
Astarte followed Li Xiang into his room.
"Master."
Her tone was a little coy.
"What's wrong?"
Li Xiang looked back at her.
"The Holy Grail War is dangerous."
Astarte didn't know why she spoke.
"...?"
Li Xiang naturally knew that the Holy Grail War was dangerous, but hearing it from the mouth of the original goddess felt a sense of disobedience.
You can blow up a planet with one punch, are you sure it's dangerous?
"So I have to protect the Master personally."
Astarte stared at him and said.
"ah?"
Li Xiang didn't expect such a sentence at all.
"Although the Master is very strong, he is still not as good as some of the servants."
Astati said her reasonable explanation, "So in order to prevent you from having an accident, I need to keep an eye on you at all times."
Li Xiang was stuck for a few seconds.
The truth is this.
Other servants will also protect the Master at all times.
But he always felt weird.
"If the master doesn't speak, it will be regarded as acquiescence."
Astarte didn't give him any extra time to think, so he went to the next room and brought a sheet over.
She put down the sheets and spread the bed down the middle.
"I'll sleep inside and you sleep outside."
After Astadi finished speaking, he got into her bed.
Where she couldn't see, her face turned red.
"???"
Li Xiang froze on the spot.
What's going on?
He didn't react at all.
What to do now?
The bed in the Ghost Mansion is a double bed, so it won't feel crowded when sleeping two people.
But that's not the problem.
Li Xiang's head felt like two villains fighting.
The villain on the left said, this woman is provoking you, you have to teach her an unforgettable lesson and let her understand that you are a strong man.
The villain on the right said that it is normal for a servant to protect his master, and your Li family has been gentlemen for generations, how could you do such a beastly thing?
"Master, turn off the lights."
Astarte turned sideways and said with her back to him.
"oh."
Li Xiang turned off the light.
He hesitated, walked to the bed, lifted the quilt and lay down without even taking off his clothes.
Fortunately, the bed was quite big and there was no unexpected physical contact.
Li Xiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't fall asleep.
His body has been strengthened in various ways, and his five senses have become extremely sharp.
So much so that he could hear Astarte's breathing and the faint fragrance of her body.
Astarte turned over, her pale golden eyes looking beautiful even in the dark night.
She looked at Li Xiang with his eyes closed and couldn't help but smile.
He is pretending to sleep.
Li Xiang's five senses are strong, but hers is stronger.
She just lost her magic power.
As a god, his body is many times stronger than that of Li Xiang.
Astarte's face suddenly turned red.
The Master may not be able to bear it in the future.
It seems that he has to find a way to strengthen his body.
Astarte closed her eyes again.
After a long time, Li Xiangyou sighed.
He was highly active and even felt a little hot.
It's obviously February and the weather is so cool.
I'm in Fuyuki, not Tokyo.
Li Xiang admired himself very much for being able to complain at this time.
I don't know how long it took, but he got up to go to the toilet.
He glanced at Astarte.
At this time, her breathing was quite steady and she had fallen into a deep sleep.
A little starlight outside the window fell on her cheeks.
Indescribably beautiful.
Li Xiang heard the heartbeat again.
He quietly left the room and headed deeper into the corridor.
At this moment, he noticed that the magic in the next room was unusually active.
Is it Bazett summoning the servants?
In order to keep it secret, Astarte rented out the entire ghost mansion.
In this quiet environment, Li Xiang heard Bazett's voice.
"Your body is entrusted to me, and my destiny is attached to your sword... Cross the wheel of suppression and appear, the guardian of the scales."
The spell ends.
Li Xiang had no interest in eavesdropping.
But at this moment, the door was opened.
A lot of fog filled the air.
A purple figure appeared in front of him.
"Coming from the Kingdom of Shadows, your name is Scathach. Can I just call you Master?"
Li Xiang saw the servant in front of him.
Purple tights, red eyes, black mask, and scarlet spear.
Scathach?
Li Xiang froze on the spot.
What's going on?
"Feel sorry."
I don't know when Astarte arrived. She said coldly, "Your master is the one behind you."
Bazett hasn't reacted yet.
The one she wanted to summon was Cu Chulainn.
Why is it crooked?
"Not you?"
Scathach stared at Li Xiang and frowned.
"Since you were summoned as a Servant, you should be able to feel the connection with the Master."
Astarte took a few steps forward, stood in front of Li Xiang, and blocked Scathach's eyes.
She snorted softly and said: "It seems that you have been in the Kingdom of Shadows for too long and there is something wrong with your senses."
"..."
Scathach turned around silently, looked at Bazett, and said, "So, it's my unscrupulous disciple's earrings."
There was no emotion in his tone.
Bazett was a little confused about the current situation.
Her servant accidentally regarded Li Xiang as his master?
Is there still such an operation?
Wait, unworthy disciple.
"Are you Scathach?"
Bazett asked in surprise.
Scathach is Cu Chulainn’s teacher and the queen of the Kingdom of Shadows.
In terms of fame and strength, she is undoubtedly better than her apprentice.
As far as the Holy Grail War is concerned, it can be called a single-draw miracle.
Bazett is a relatively pragmatic magician, and summoning Scathach was actually a stroke of luck.
"Let's go."
Astarte pulled Li Xiang away.
Scathach glanced at them, looked away, and closed the door.
"Then let's find out whether you are qualified to be my master."
When Li Xiang returned to the room, he remembered that his purpose was to use the toilet.
Mainly because he was so shocked that he forgot about it.
He ran out again.
Come back when you're done.
Li Xiang looked thoughtful.
Bazett summoned Scathach, which is possible from the perspective of holy relics.
As we all know, it is very possible for many heroes to use the same item in the same era.
Even Artoria's holy sword has a certain chance of summoning Merlin and Morgan.
Not to mention the Round Table of the Knights of the Round Table.
Those dozen can be summoned.
Maybe Bazett's earrings were given to Cu Chulainn by Scathach.
But Scathach is not dead.
Unless she is bored, she cannot be summoned.
Li Xiang thought that she had mistaken him for the master.
Could it be because he was there when Bazett called?
Was he considered a holy relic?
"Master."
Astarte waved her hands in front of his eyes and asked, "What are you thinking about? If she is really Scathach, it is not a bad thing for us."
Li Xiang came back to his senses and nodded.
From an ally's perspective, it's not a bad thing.
But when it comes to fighting, it's hard to predict.
After all, Scathach can have a divine special attack.
As a goddess, Astarte is divine and is restrained by her.
And Scathach's wish is to be killed, so Astarti is an extremely good opponent.
The chance of a peaceful ending like Cu Chulainn becomes smaller.
"Then let's go back to sleep."
Astarte didn't seem worried at all.
Li Xiang opened his mouth and turned off the light.
Perhaps he had experienced too much and felt sleepy, so he fell into a deep sleep.
The night passed unconsciously.
Li Xiang woke up.
He felt like something was pressing on him.
When I looked up, I saw it was a leg.
Oh, it turns out to be legs.
Wait! Where did the legs come from?!
Li Xiang suddenly lost all sleepiness.
I saw Astarte clinging to him at some point, holding his right arm with both hands, and putting one leg on his body.
He lowered his head slightly and could touch her fair and delicate face.
Li Xiang's body stiffened and he didn't know what to do.
Are you trying to push her away?
But it felt inappropriate.
Li Xiang thought about it and decided to wake her up.
"Astarte."
He shouted several times.
"Well...well..."
Astarte made an indescribably charming and lazy voice in a daze.
Li Xiang immediately pushed him away, got up and ran into the toilet.
A series of actions are completed in one go.
He took a deep breath.
The gun almost went off.
A man in the morning is full of fire.
Li Xiang washed his face with cold water and immediately felt much better.
What a sin.
He looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't help but shake his head.
It's not easy to be a gentleman.
Of course, what he said is that a gentleman means a gentleman in his true sense of the word.
These days, every word has lost its original meaning and has become particularly unbearable to look at.
Li Xiang returned to the room after washing up.
Astarte is already up.
She sat on the edge of the bed, picked up pure black stockings, and slowly put them on.
Li Xiang took one look and didn't dare to look again.
"We're going to school today."
Astarte stood up and said, "Go and check the situation first."
"What should Bazett do here? If Kotomine Kirei comes, given her trust in him, even if it were Scathach, it would be difficult to rescue him."
Li Xiang nodded and asked, "If Scathach falls into the hands of Kotomine Kirei, it will really be a big trouble."
"I will leave a familiar."
Astarte took out a diamond and turned it into a transparent bird under her control.
Li Xiang trusted her strength and said nothing more.
After breakfast, they went to Bazette's room and told her where they were going.
And she had similar thoughts.
Scathach had already left earlier.
The school is located in Xindu.
On the other side of Fuyuki City, the distance is farther.
On the bus.
"There is one thing I didn't tell you."
Astati leaned against the car window, glanced at Li Xiang beside him, and said, "I only went through the admission procedures for you, so I'll just protect you in secret."
"Oh, it's okay."
Li Xiang shook his head indifferently.
They didn't really come to study, they just came to get close to a few Masters.
For example, Tohsaka Rin, Emiya Shirou and Matou Shinji.
Speaking of which, what will happen to the Matou family without Tohsaka Sakura?
Because in the original work, Kiri Shinji became the Master and used the Book of Pseudo Officials to usurp the right to use the servants.
But the actual master is still Tohsaka Sakura.
Unless Matou Zouken finds another magician as his master, otherwise, Matou Shinji will probably not become his master.
However, it remains to be seen what the situation will be.
According to Li Xiang's idea, kill the Matong family first.
When I got off the car, I saw a Japanese-style high school that is very common in anime.
It was just seven o'clock at this time, and there were not many students.
Astarte found a blind spot and disappeared in front of him.
Li Xiang saw the school map on the bulletin board.
Following the instructions, he came to the office of his head teacher Fujimura Taiga.
"Morning, Mr. Fujimura."
After getting permission, Li Xiang opened the door.
"You are...oh, classmate Li Xiang."
Fujimura Dahe showed a hearty smile and said, "Welcome to your arrival. I have already read your information. It is quite excellent."
"The teacher is so complimentary."
Li Xiang smiled and scratched his head.
"Let me check the time. There is still an hour before class officially begins."
Fujimura Taiga turned around and took out a stack of textbooks and said, "How about getting familiar with it first?"
