Diarmuid's entire life was like that! It perfectly matched his own fantasies, but Kaineth's current attitude left her feeling a bit flustered.
What did she truly want?
"Stupid lemon head! Stupid..." As soon as Waver returned to his current temporary residence, he started cursing loudly.
He had kindly warned him about his wife's affair, and yet this person attacked him. How could someone like that exist!
Waver felt like he had encountered an ungrateful wretch! At the same time, he silently cursed that the lemon head would grow a beard!
King of Conquerors, standing beside him, found the clearly agitated Master quite amusing.
This little Master truly knew how to surprise him!
'Forget it, he's just a Lancer. Even if we form an alliance, so what!'
"Waver, what's wrong? Did something happen?"
As an aged voice echoed, Waver suddenly became flustered.
"It's nothing, Grandpa. I just had a nightmare."
Waver responded somewhat guiltily to this fake grandfather, whom he had conjured using suggestion Sorcery to solve his accommodation problem.
But they were genuinely kind to him, so Waver always felt a sense of guilt around them.
Meanwhile, the genderbent Gilgamesh hovered in the hospital sky, raising and then lowering the Gouging Sword in his hand before finally snorting and flashing back home.
After all, if he truly unleashed his Noble Phantasm, that useless subordinate would surely use a chant to summon him back again. So, there was no need for such a superfluous action.
She really didn't believe Saber would stay out all night, would he?
In his basement, Tokiomi Tohsaka nervously watched the images transmitted by his familiar, his hand trembling as he communicated with the Command Spells in his grasp.
He had already used one. To achieve his goal, he would definitely need to use another one at the very end.
This meant that if he used this one now, he would have no means to threaten Archer for the next four days!
Kallen was held by her grandfather, her face expressionless, feeling the prickle of his beard. From a distance, it seemed like he didn't have one.
Kirei Kotomine watched his father snatch Kallen away with a sense of helplessness. However, the good news was that his father seemed to have forgotten that he had stood him up today.
As the grandfather and granddaughter walked into the church, a dark shadow appeared behind Kirei Kotomine, seemingly reporting something.
After a while, the dark shadow merged into the shadows of the wall and disappeared.
Kirei Kotomine, on the other hand, fell into thought:
"Lancer and Rider, I can understand that."
"But the reason Saber appeared at the hospital was a family food poisoning incident!"
"However, Kariya Matou's presence there is worth pondering."
"An alliance? Then the incident at the Matou residence before can be understood."
"But this way, it means Saber has a very powerful fire-attribute Noble Phantasm or skill. Saber's Noble Phantasm is highly likely to be a greatsword of fire."
Kirei Kotomine rubbed his temples with a headache. How mysterious! Saber!
Then, he adjusted his expression, smiled, and pushed open the door. As for whether to tell his master, why should he tell him?
What did the Tohsaka family's affairs have to do with him!
Finally, Fu Yuan and his group stayed at the hospital for a night. Although Fu Yuan found it strange that he didn't sleep, instead staring at the ceiling.
Meanwhile, Gilgamesh, grumbling, exited the group chat.
Chapter 40: Divine Emissary!
"As expected, a change in gender affects personality."
Fu Yuan felt foolish for being on guard all night.
So, after genderbending, the personality really did become gentler. No, this was more like becoming stupid!
Who would stand on a rooftop all night, sometimes drawing their sword and sometimes sheathing it?
It couldn't be that he was still harboring the mindset of Uruk, right? A man goes out to duel! A simple and honest wind?
Fu Yuan suddenly tapped his head with some dissatisfaction. His brain was becoming less and less useful! It was all the fault of Ryougi Shiki.
"Mmm~ Let's go to the amusement park!" Illya, with great intelligence, grabbed Fu Yuan's arm and asked with her big, blinking eyes.
"..."
"..."
Fu Yuan opened his mouth, and the elegant Chinese words were stuck in his throat. He didn't understand!
Why are you asking me! Do I look like someone who would go to an amusement park!
I'm over five hundred years old! I'm not a child anymore! I've lived longer than your family history!
"……I think it's fine."
After a long silence, Fu Yuan suddenly felt the suggestion was quite good. Although the Master should be the one in charge here, Kiritsugu Emiya, who was a bit of a doting father, was too easy to deal with.
Fu Yuan ultimately managed to trick Kiritsugu, who looked helpless, into agreeing by using the excuse of indulging children's innocence and providing rehabilitation therapy for the child.
Kiritsugu probably knew these were just excuses, but he surprisingly didn't object. Perhaps it was guilt? …Who knew!
Irisviel, on the other hand, seemed very interested. Even though she was the mother of a six-year-old child! But she herself was only seven, so one could say… she still had a childlike heart.
Kariya Matou declared that as long as Sakura was happy, that was all that mattered!
As for Lancelot? Well… was he even here?
Did he forget something? Never mind, the amusement park was the most important thing!
He hadn't been to one in over five hundred years; there was no opportunity in the Honkai world! He hadn't expected to experience being a child again here and now.
Fu Yuan felt utterly defeated! He had completely ignored the impact of his own physical capabilities! Roller coasters that he used to find super thrilling were now… slower than he could run.
As for the haunted house, he walked through it with a completely blank expression.
And the Ferris wheel? Forget it. There were too many of them, and the main reason was that his suggestion to share a cabin with Illya and Sakura had been rejected!
How outrageous! Did they think he would actually do something untoward!
I'm a Heroic Spirit! By your understanding, I'm someone who leaves their legend in history. Would I be so low-brow!
Although he had a thousand words he wanted to say, Fu Yuan ultimately decided not to argue with them, not because he couldn't win the argument.
"A Yuan, are you not having fun?" Irisviel noticed that Fu Yuan wasn't laughing heartily at the various attractions and showed some concern.
She was also a bit confused. Given Fu Yuan's personality, shouldn't he be having the most fun right now?
"Not fun! Very not fun!"
Fu Yuan stared at Irisviel with vacant eyes, mechanically spitting out his thoughts. He felt no joy at all, having already been dragged through more than a dozen rides.
"Why is my physical fitness so strong! Why are all the facilities here so slow!"
Bloodshot veins began to appear in Fu Yuan's eyes. The entire morning! He had been doing these boring things!
His fantasy was shattered!
The amusement park was no longer the sacred land in his heart!
Fu Yuan felt like the past period had been terrible. First, the Honkai invasion, then being humiliated for his height, followed by discovering his rock-solid Spirit Core, and then not sleeping all night because of a certain genderbent shining Heroic Spirit.
Now, after his fantasy was shattered, Fu Yuan, for some reason, suddenly felt like crying.
Irisviel felt a bit like she was being shown off, even though she knew Fu Yuan probably didn't mean it that way.
But seeing Kiritsugu chuckling beside her, Irisviel suddenly didn't know what to do.
And… she felt like the relationship between Kiritsugu and A Yuan was a bit strange. Was it just her imagination?
"Messenger of God!"
Hearing this voice, Fu Yuan's expression suddenly froze.
Being called out by a cute loli in such an adoring tone, Shouldn't it be a happy thing?
But… why was it so embarrassing!
Kirei Kotomine felt helpless. No matter how much he explained, Kallen seemed convinced.
Besides the minor incident of encountering the Saber group at the amusement park, Kirei Kotomine found the fear he sensed from Assassin through the Command Spells to be the most puzzling.
This Saber had many secrets!
However, the immediate priority was to stop Kallen, who was preparing to worship Saber…
Feeling the strange gazes from the people around him, if he hadn't had some reputation before, people would probably be whispering even more loudly now.
And Fu Yuan felt social death for the first time in this world!
Fu Yuan twitched his small face, trying his best to make his expression less stiff. Then he squatted down, looking at the very devout Kallen.
He said, very seriously, word by word, through gritted teeth, "I am not God, nor am I God's messenger! And! I! Do! Not! Believe! In! Religion!"
After saying this, his expression suddenly relaxed, and he gently rubbed Kallen's small head with a very mild demeanor.
"Did you understand?"
Kallen inexplicably felt a chill, but looking at the gentle smile in front of her, she responded very earnestly.
"Mm! Kallen understands. I won't call you that outside anymore, Divine Emissary."
Fu Yuan froze upon hearing this, especially when he sensed the strange gazes from the side.
He then stroked her head even more gently, as if searching for…
"Cough! Cough! Sorry, I've caused you trouble." Kirei Kotomine felt the atmosphere suddenly become a little strange. He quickly pulled Kallen, who was still devoutly gazing, behind him and said with a lack of confidence.
He truly lacked confidence, especially when he sensed that Assassin actually wanted to commit suicide! Kirei Kotomine was completely dumbfounded. You're Heroic Spirits! Why are you so cowardly!
"...Hey, could you please properly discipline your children, Father?" Fu Yuan said, word by word, his expression clearly displeased.
Fu Yuan felt his current irrational self, or rather, his extremely childish self!
He began to blame his Spirit Core in his heart!
That's right, it was all the Spirit Core's fault! It wasn't his fault at all!
He was an opponent that even Green Saber had to acknowledge! (In terms of combat power) How could he be so childish!
Fu Yuan suddenly began to seriously examine his own stats:
Luck: A
You must be kidding me! Just like the C-rank Angel of Death, it's a lie, right! It's A rank?
Actually, if you think about it from another perspective, it seems pretty good?
Because of his A-rank Luck, several big shots quickly noticed the anomaly here.
Because of A-rank Luck, even when his flaw was exposed, he managed to avoid embarrassment precisely because he carried King Hassan's aura.
Because of A-rank Luck, a certain King calmed down for once, knowing that if he intervened, he would be stopped, thus avoiding a major battle.
Because of A-rank Luck, his long-held wish (to go to an amusement park) was fulfilled.
Because of A-rank Luck, he gained a little loli for free.
But Fu Yuan didn't want this kind of A-rank Luck!
Kiritsugu looked at the two people he seemed to recognize, and his expression gradually relaxed, even though the Sorcery in his hand was still being prepared.
Chapter 41: Honing Mutual Understanding
Fu Yuan walked out of the amusement park with a numb expression, a bunch of adults watching him leave from behind. To be precise, they were watching him and... Kallen, who was being dragged away by her father.
