The Ahoge King and Erica's Conflict / Please Take Care of Me, My Master

But after gaining Arthur's approval, Erica also witnessed another side of this new 'king'.

Just like his title of 'King of Knights', he's quite mild-mannered!

Of course, Erica didn't think that the other "God Slayer" would have a hidden personality like the "King of Knights".

According to her understanding, the 'Sword King' whom Italy had submitted to was an incorrigible person.

Thinking of this, Erica looked at the seventh 'King' in front of her, who was reading a book with a serious expression, and a thought involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

Almost without thinking, Erica suddenly knelt on one knee, bowed her head, and said, "Your Majesty, Erica Brantley pledges her allegiance to you."

The change in address signifies that Erica is serious, and no one dares to joke about it.

Arthur, who had been reading ancient documents, slowly raised his head and asked with a light laugh, "Is this your intention, or the intention of the Magecraft society behind you?"

"This is naturally my wish, and it has nothing to do with my family or the Magecraft society." Erica looked up at Arthur and said with a bright smile, "I sincerely want to become the King's knight, and I believe there is no knight who wouldn't want to serve the 'King of Knights'."

Upon hearing this, Arthur shook his head and politely declined, saying, "To be offered allegiance by a genius who attained the rank of Grand Knight at the age of sixteen, I believe no one would be unmoved! But unfortunately, I already have a knight to serve."

"May I ask who the knight who is loyal to the king is?" Erica's expression changed slightly as she looked at Arthur and asked in confusion.

'Bang--'

Just then, the guest room door was suddenly pushed open rudely. The heavy sound made Arthur smile helplessly, and Erica showed her displeasure.

Who is so rude?!

"Arthur, I'm back."

The voice was spirited and clear, melodious, and clearly belonged to a woman.

Erica slowly stood up and turned to look in the direction from which the sound came.

A young girl in a white dress, who looked like she had stepped out of a painting, possessed a sacred and inviolable aura, but her image was completely ruined by the fact that she was carrying a plastic bucket full of food.

The girl is Saber, of course.

The girl is Saber, of course.

After Arthur murdered 'Melqart' and 'Verethragna', the news quickly spread throughout the world.

Arthur was worried that someone would report the good news to Saber, and that the girl would find out he hadn't taken her with him to the battle.

That very night, he summoned Saber to Sardinia.

Having arrived in a new environment and free from battle, Saber naturally went to sample new delicacies.

Coming home so early today, I guess you had a change of heart.

Or, to put it another way, you've tried all the visually appealing foods.

Only then did they return, completely satisfied.

"Huh... Is it already evening?" Arthur said, feigning surprise as he looked at Saber approaching.

After saying that, he turned to look at the balcony behind him.

'Whoosh--'

A whooshing sound rang out, and an enraged Saber grabbed a vase and hurled it at Arthur.

However, it was as if Arthur had eyes in the back of his head; as the vase approached, he caught it in an arc.

That's so rude!

Before Arthur could continue his teasing with a smile, Erica's voice rang out.

This attracted the attention of Arthur and Saber, who was blushing from being 'humiliated' by Arthur.

"As a knight of the king, how dare you lay a hand on the master you serve! You are utterly disrespectful!" Erica reprimanded Saber, one hand on her hip and the other pointing at her with her slender fingers.

Saber, clutching a plastic bucket full of food, seemed to twitch her ahoge (a single strand of hair sticking up) slightly. She first stared blankly at Arthur, then suddenly snapped out of it, pointing at Erica with a wary expression and asking, "Who is she?"

"Here for a job interview!" Looking at her expression, Arthur felt a mischievous glint in his eye. He put down the vase, shrugged, and said helplessly, "I was abandoned by the 'knight' who was supposed to take care of me, so someone wants to take care of me. I just happened to be interviewing when you came back!"

"What--"

These words struck Saber like a bolt from the blue, leaving her stunned. The plastic bucket full of food nearly slipped from her hands, but thankfully she snapped out of her daze and caught it.

Seeing his fearful expression, Arthur covered his forehead with one hand and said with feigned sadness, "Look... in your heart, I'm not even as important as food."

"I can't afford to raise them, I simply can't afford it anymore--"

Normally, Saber would definitely have taken these words as an insult.

Now, Saber looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

However, a hint of envy flashed in Erica's beautiful eyes.

For the 'King' to treat her like this, this woman is no ordinary person!

Chapter 345 The Battle Between Saber and Erica

"Woman, state your name!"

In the luxurious VIP room, Erica spoke to Saber with a forceful attitude.

"Saber, no... Artoria Pendragon." Saber had already put down the plastic bucket in her hand, her eyes revealing undisguised hostility towards Erica. The aura she exuded after becoming serious made Erica's heart sink.

As expected, the knight who could become a 'king' was not entirely useless.

That fierce fighting spirit... this woman is very strong!

"Pendragon?" But one thing made Erica frown slightly, and she asked questioningly, "Are you the king's sister? Or a member of his clan?"

"She is one of my people!" Arthur blurted out before Saber could speak.

Saber didn't argue, after all, they were both 'King Arthur', and outsiders who didn't belong to this world.

"I see! Is that why you became a knight following the 'King'?" Erica seemed to understand slightly, then said proudly, "Even so, I, Erica Brantri, will not lose to you."

"My lord, please accept my allegiance, Erica Brantley. I will serve you as your second knight." Erica knelt down on one knee before Arthur again, willing to become Arthur second knight.

Erica's attitude was undoubtedly serious.

Arthur paused for a moment, then looked at Erica as if to say something.

But then he noticed that the girl suddenly looked up at him and winked, a mischievous smile appearing on her beautiful and lovely face.

Upon seeing this, Arthur instantly understood.

He swallowed the words that were about to escape his throat, raised his hand to pinch his chin, and said, feigning deep thought, "Let me think about it."

I couldn't help but admire Erica's exceptionally high emotional intelligence.

Such a woman is simply a born leader.

Clearly, Erica, who had been rejected before, had not given up on her desire to serve Arthur, and seized another opportunity from Arthur's teasing remarks about Saber.

That wink conveyed the meaning of wanting to help Arthur tame the woman who disrespected 'the Lord'.

If Arthur understands this, Erica will accept whatever decision he makes.

If Erica doesn't understand and continues to refuse, she will simply give up.

Clearly, Arthur's choked words and subsequent thoughtful expression indicated that he had understood.

This brought a bright smile to Erica's face.

Her judgment was spot on!

This kind of king is the most suitable master in Erica Brantelli's heart.

"No, I won't accept it."

Sure enough, Saber's voice reached their ears the next moment.

"Hmph? A mere knight, what right do you have to make decisions on behalf of the 'King'?" Erica slowly stood up, her confident expression restored, and looked at the serious-faced Saber, saying with amusement.

Arthur, meanwhile, sat with his legs crossed elegantly, quietly preparing to watch the show.

Unlike others, he doesn't find these kinds of struggles bothersome; instead, he finds them quite interesting.

The power struggle between Nami and Hancock back then was just like that.

"I am already Arthur's 'knight,' he no longer needs any other 'knights,'" Saber said hostilely to Erica, as if declaring her sovereignty.

"But there's no rule that says only one knight can be by the king's side." Erica shrugged, looking at Saber with a hint of doubt, and said, "Besides, I'm starting to doubt whether you're really suitable to be the king's knight."

"What did you say?!"

"What did you say?!"

Erica's words were practically a denial of Saber's chivalry, causing the overly serious Erica to reveal a hint of anger.

Seeing this, Erica, who knew nothing about Saber's life, frowned slightly.

With her exceptionally high emotional intelligence, she instantly sensed a different flavor in Saber's emotions.

So she asked, "Do you know what the responsibilities are for a knight who serves the king?"

"Of course!" Saber said earnestly, "I am Arthur's sword, his protector and his partner in battle."

Is this woman serious?

Looking at Saber's seemingly genuine expression, Erica couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity.

Erica glanced instinctively at Arthur beside her, who was already engrossed in his book, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion.

· ······Requesting flowers· ·······

As if sensing Erica's gaze, Arthur subtly twitched his index finger while turning the page.

'I see--'

Erica Satori, and her gaze towards Saber once again showed envy. She was too lazy to bother with this simple-minded woman for taking away her position as the first knight.

"So besides these, will you do laundry and cook, negotiate with other forces on behalf of the king, offer advice when the king is troubled, and take care of the king's daily affairs?" Erica asked Saber with one hand on her hip and a smile.

"Eh--" Upon hearing this, Saber's eyes widened in disbelief.

Just like Erica, who found her words absurd.

Erica's words put Saber in check.

0

Saber's words just now Servant the relationship between a Servant and Master.

That's also a rule of the Holy Grail War!

But in this world, unless a miracle occurs, humans cannot defeat the "Heretic Gods." Ordinary people cannot fight alongside the "King," and the "King" does not need the protection of knights.

The knight only needs to take good care of his master, handle all his affairs and daily life, and offer advice when he is troubled.

Because the 'King' is the 'God Slayer,' Demon King roams the earth unchallenged.

Therefore, Erica found Saber's words absurd.

However, from Arthur's gestures, she could tell that this woman was being very well protected by the 'King'.

They might not even know about "God Slayer" and "Heretic Gods "!

Indeed, that is the case.

Arthur only killed three "Heretic Gods," and he summoned Saber afterward for all of them.

Saber is currently only in Servant form, so her power isn't much of a help to Arthur. If she were the real Saber, it would be a different story.

However, even in her clone form, Arthur doesn't know if she can become God Slayer.

Arthur was unwilling to take the risk, even though she possessed the power of 'Avalon'.

Since she wasn't affected by the time freeze, let her have some fun in this world.

Chapter 346 Please guide me, my master

"See? You're speechless now!"

Seeing Saber's stunned expression, Erica said with a sense of victory, "A qualified knight is not just someone who can fight and is strong. She not only needs to be the king's ally, but also his steward, assistant, and strategist."
