It's fine when they're working, but if the two of them are trying to conceive and he pulls him over, things could become quite complicated.

So Mikaela wanted to create something like a chat group, to pull in 'herself's', and then chat with them whenever they wanted.

Of course... living alone is really too lonely. In my previous life, although I didn't have any friends, at least I had some silly online friends to keep me company.

Thinking of this, Mikaela looked at the Shopkeeper's Daughter calmly and said, "What do you think? What do you think of my idea?"

"Huh? Aila-chan, what did you say?" The Shopkeeper's Daughter was slightly confused, clearly she hadn't been listening carefully to what Mikaela had said.

"I mean, I want to create something like a chat group so I can talk to other 'me's'," Mikaela said helplessly, repeating her words.

"This... can't be done, right?" The Shopkeeper's Daughter's lips twitched slightly. To be honest, she thought that summoning across world lines and time lines was already quite outrageous.

Summoning oneself from other world lines and timelines is absurd, but the Shopkeeper's Daughter thinks that, in reality, this situation can be explained.

What's with this chat group?! It's incredibly unreliable from any angle!

Hey!! You guys exist on different world lines and timelines!!

Although she was internally complaining like this, the Shopkeeper's Daughter still explained quite seriously on the surface, "After all, you are not from the same world. You often engage in cross-world activities. Even if you establish a so-called chat group in a short period of time, once you start cross-world activities, the so-called chat group will probably disappear immediately."

Judging from the conversation between 'Mikaela' and the others, they are about to do something big. In order to find their way home... they are going to slaughter the gods. Although gods are somewhat troublesome in their eyes, they are not the kind of beings that cannot be killed.

But here's the problem: while killing gods is easy, do they even have gods on their side?

Take Mikaela as an example. On the surface, she probably only has the Lion King as a god. If she wants to create a so-called divine body, she must find more gods, kill them, and then obtain their divinity and Divine Authority.

How do you find more gods? Of course, you can go to another world or travel to the mythical era of the past.

Regardless of the method, one must travel to the next world.

So how do you set up a chat group? After all, for a cross-world chat group, the first thing to do is to identify the world she's in.

After locking onto her world, then contacting her, and then binding her existence, right?

If he runs around everywhere, will this chat group still be able to track him down?

The Shopkeeper's Daughter thought this way, after all, the internet society of her time was like this: if you suddenly went to an area with no signal, see if others could contact you.

"That's true." After considering the difficulty for a moment, Mikaela also chose to give up, because it was indeed very troublesome.

However, the previous interaction with "themselves" was so pleasant that Mikaela couldn't help but have such a thought.

Perhaps there will be a way to solve these problems in the future.

Mikaela planted a seed in her heart: perhaps nothing is more interesting than talking to herself.

After all, only you truly know yourself.

"Let's go back quickly. There's a village not far from here. You can definitely rest there for a while." After suppressing her thoughts, Mikaela also planned to take the Shopkeeper's Daughter to the mountain village to rest.

"Aren't you going to slaughter the gods?" the Shopkeeper's Daughter suddenly asked. With the hope of returning home so close, why not hurry up and leave this world to find a place with a large number of gods?

If it were the Shopkeeper's Daughter who discovered she had a way to go back, she would definitely do everything in her power and not waste a single second to return to her own world as quickly as possible.

As a homeless person, the Shopkeeper's Daughter wanted to go back home more than anyone else; she missed her hometown.

Similarly... I also miss the lover who protected me back then.

"I owe someone a huge favor, and I have to resolve this matter before I can investigate the world with the most gods," Mikaela said calmly.

Although she knew how to get back, Mikaela was not an ungrateful person.

King Hassan helped him obtain the Holy Grail, and incidentally also beheaded Ramesses II.

Although he says on the surface that he doesn't need any reward, Mikaela will help the Old Man of the Mountain defeat the Lion King no matter what.

Of course, if Ramesses II did not want to form an alliance with her and instead planned to stay in the Grand Temple, Mikaela would also take care of him.

"Nothing has changed at all." The Shopkeeper's Daughter smiled. In her memory, Aila-chan was always such a reassuring presence.

What you promise to others, you will surely fulfill.

There is no promise to keep; repay kindness with kindness and revenge with revenge.

"You're back? You've got some nerve."

In the Holy City, Agravain looked at Mordred, who had just returned, with a grim expression. He said coldly, "Although I don't want to disobey the King's orders, if you die like this, it will bring us enormous trouble. Mordred, do you know that?!"

"Ah... how sad." Tristan played his harp silently beside him, his voice calm and composed, like an elegant musician. "Lancelot has returned to the Pharaoh King's territory. He is going to start searching for that world traveler seriously."

"To be honest, although Lancelot is very annoying, now..." Tristan silently opened his eyes, staring at Mordred with eyes like a venomous snake, and said with a hint of murderous intent in his tone, "I would rather cut your head off."

"Want to give it a try?" Mordred wasn't afraid of Tristan at all; in a head-on fight, she really wasn't afraid of this guy Tristan.

Of all the Knights of the Round Table, apart from those few guys, she really wasn't afraid of anyone, not even the cold-blooded and ruthless Tristan.

If she really fights with them, Mordred isn't someone to be trifled with.

She snorted and continued speaking to Tristan, "Since we're going to fight sooner or later anyway, what's wrong with me giving her a heads-up? But that guy really is King Arthur."

At this point, Mordred pursed her lips. She had initially thought that Agravain, Gawain, and Tristan were talking nonsense. How could there be two King Arthur in one Singularity?

However, the other party has now proven with facts that there is indeed a King Arthur inside her.

Her familiar fighting style and arrogant tone were enough to prove that she was indeed King Arthur.

"You should know very well," Tristan said with a murderous glint in his eyes, "Now that war is about to begin, your target shouldn't be the 'King,' but those Old Man of the Mountain."

War is about to break out, and the Knights of the Round Table are ready to fight with all their might.

Agravain and the others silently waited for the Old Man of the Mountain to storm the Holy City, deciding not to actively wipe them out.

The reason is simple: they can't beat Mikaela, nor can they beat the first Old Man of the Mountain, who is Grand Assassin. Since he has taken the initiative to appear, it means that he will personally take action next.

To avoid the Old Man of the Mountain dying suddenly when they went out to sweep through the area.

Agravain decided to send Lancelot out to the desert region to see if there were any lone Servant; this was probably his last sweep mission.

Hmm... in a sense, the last sweep mission.

If he's unlucky and bumps into the first Old Man of the Mountain or encounters the King, then there's nothing he can do.

Either die, or surrender directly to that king.

Apart from Lancelot, the other Knights of the Round Table must maintain their peak condition and must not act without authorization.

To Agravain and Tristan's anger, Mordred somehow managed to get the king to agree to let her leave the city to fight Mikaela.

Isn't this just asking for trouble?!

Even Gawain couldn't beat you, Mordred! You may be strong, but are you stronger than Lancelot?! Are you stronger than Gawain?!

Obviously not, Mordred hasn't reached that level yet!

"I know, I know, Old Man of the Mountain, right? They're just small fry, what's there to worry about?" Mordred clearly didn't understand what Agravain and Tristan meant.

Or perhaps she already knew what her actions represented, but was just pretending not to know.

"However, compared to the so-called Old Man of the Mountain, you have seriously underestimated that guy's strength." Mordred looked at Agravain and Tristan very seriously and said, "She is much, much stronger than you think. Just one clone of her shattered my Noble Phantasm, which I used almost at full power."

Intelligence is the foundation of war, and intelligence on the enemy is even more important.

Mordred sacrificed the kindness the Lion King had shown to Mikaela in exchange for some of her intelligence.

"Tell me about it," Agravain, intrigued, though he disliked Mordred's unauthorized actions.

But as mentioned before, Agravain is the embodiment of reason; he doesn't act on emotion. So, after learning that Mordred had some information about Mikaela...

He immediately stopped scolding and began to ask the other party what they had found out.

"She wields the Holy Lance and the Holy Sword, well, those are King Arthur's two Noble Phantasm, you know that without me saying it."

Mordred's decisive surrender to Mikaela can be seen in part by the fact that he saw the Excalibur and the Gae Bolg in the hands of the other two Mikaela.

If those two Noble Phantasm were to come crashing down on me, even with the blessing of the Holy Grail, I would probably be reduced to ashes!

"What did you say?" Agravain's expression immediately changed.

"Ah... this is really..." Tristan was at a loss for words.

They knew that Mikaela possessed the Holy Sword, because she had previously used Excalibur to counter Gawain Noble Phantasm.

That glory is something they, as subjects, could never forget.

But! The opponent actually possesses the Holy Lance?! This is a huge problem! After all, if the opponent has the Holy Lance...

In a sense, wouldn't the other party be able to enter the Holy City with complete freedom, just like the master, and then openly fight the Lion King?

Chapter 381 Evacuation?

Mikaela didn't know what was going on with the Knights of the Round Table, and even if she did, she wouldn't say much, since it wasn't a big deal.

He was well aware that most of the Holy City's defenses were made up of the Holy Lance— the Gae Bolg.

One of the reasons the Lion King didn't leave the Holy City to personally defeat Mikaela was that she wanted to maximize the power of the Holy Lance so that she could feel at ease.

After all Pharaoh King and King Hassan put considerable pressure on her; the former was a top-tier Heroic Spirit and held the Holy Grail.

The latter is Grand Servant, and the word "Grand" is enough to prove how terrifying he is.

In order to protect the Holy City, the Lion King sacrificed herself by 'sleeping,' spending most of her time asleep unless something major happened.

This is why the Lion King only appears at special times and then summons the Knights of the Round Table.

Only Agravain was qualified to speak with the Lion King, which shows that the Lion King did not want to be betrayed while he was resting.

This is not impossible, because Mordred and Lancelot are living examples.

The Lion King didn't have much trust in the two of them either, which is why he sent them out as guerrilla knights to kill the Old Man of the Mountain and some powerful magical beasts. If they saw any lone Servant, they could recruit them if they could, but if they couldn't, they would just leave them be.

Now... Mikaela and the Shopkeeper's Daughter have returned to the mountain village.

"They're back? They seem to be safe and sound."

Arash and Amon came out to greet them, but Hassan of the Hundred Faces and the Madman had disappeared somewhere.

"This..." Amon focused on the Shopkeeper's Daughter, narrowing his eyes slightly and saying in a rather solemn tone, "You are, 'Person from a Non-existent World'."

"Person from a Non-existent World" is not a good thing to say.

Amon roughly means is that the Shopkeeper's Daughter does not exist in this world, or rather, she is someone who should not exist in this world.

If it weren't for the Shopkeeper's Daughter staying obediently by Mikaela's side, Amon would probably have eliminated her by now.

Since this world does not exist, it can be understood as extraterrestrial beings, such as Alien God that will arrive in the future, or beings like Velber.

At this moment, the Shopkeeper's Daughter is also at this level; she is an intruder who has not obtained an 'identity card'.

"Well, I was found out." The Shopkeeper's Daughter wasn't too surprised, because she was an 'intruder' and couldn't stay in any world for long.

Strictly speaking, she should be called someone who has been exiled by the world.

No world welcomes her, and no one will accept her except Mikaela. No one can understand why she has been banished by the world.

"It's too obvious. You have an aura of rejection on you. The world is rejecting you." Amon expected of one of the Seventy-Two Demon God Pillars, although he looks a bit silly, he has a wealth of knowledge.

He immediately noticed something strange about the Shopkeeper's Daughter.

"I won't be staying long. In about six days, I'll disappear from this world." The Shopkeeper's Daughter shrugged, seemingly sensing Amon's hostility.

However, she had gotten used to it; whenever someone with ability realized that she didn't belong to this world, they would express hostility.

However, when they realize that they cannot stay in this world for long and are powerless, most of their hostility will disappear.

"I see, a wanderer?" Amon seemed to understand that the Shopkeeper's Daughter was a wanderer, not an intruder, which lessened his solemn expression.

"Lady Ella, please forgive me for not being able to arrive immediately."

At this moment, Hassan of the Hundred Faces also came over. She bowed her head to Mikaela and said in a very serious tone, "When Lady Aila went to see her friend, Kyonobuko and I attended a Hassan meeting and we discovered some very important information."

"What intelligence?"

Arash looked at Hassan of the Hundred Faces with some surprise. What important information had the other party obtained so soon after leaving?

"Speak," Mikaela, also quite curious about what important intelligence Hassan of the Hundred Faces had obtained from attending the Hassan Meeting.

The other party is clearly still in a meeting, but this clone was created temporarily and is obviously intended to come and pass on information to me.

Clearly, it must be very important intelligence for Hassan of the Hundred Faces to specially create a clone to deliver it.

"The Lion King's Purification Knight has begun to consolidate its forces," Hassan of the Hundred Faces said earnestly. "According to the intelligence we have now, for unknown reasons, the Purification Knight's area of operation has begun to shrink significantly."

Besides the Knights of the Round Table, the Purification Knight were also a formidable force. They were extremely difficult to deal with Purification Knight; a trained soldier would typically have to sacrifice at least a dozen lives to take down Purification Knight one of them.
