There's Nothing Left to Be Afraid Of! / That Blonde Girl! ...
However, their performance was so poor that it makes one wonder what materials King Solomon used to create them.
For her own safety, Mikaela decided to wait and cook for herself instead.
After hearing what Mikaela said, Amon and Reif exchanged glances and then decisively replied, "Yes!" x2.
"So, what should we do with those two?" Ryougi Shiki walked over at this moment. She pointed to Tang Sanzang, who was still pleading for justice, and said calmly, "Although we can be sure that they are not Servant of the Lion King, we can't be sure that they really won't be our enemies."
Ryougi Shiki had been to the First Singularity, so she naturally knew that these lone Servant were not entirely allies of her group.
If left unchecked, they might suddenly become 'enemies,' after all, Servant! Their personalities are changeable, and they will give their lives for what they believe is right.
"Lady Aila." Hassan of the Arm, also came to Mikaela's side. He said calmly, "Ryougi Shiki is right. Although the Lion King has been dealt with, to avoid unnecessary trouble, we should still..."
Hassan of the Arm, made a gesture of touching his neck.
This made Taro Urashima was not far away, narrow his eyes slightly, while Tang Sanzang wailed, "I'm innocent!!! I really am just a traveling monk!!"
"...Stop shouting. I know you two are innocent. Let them go." Mikaela sighed, looking utterly helpless. These two troublemakers only showed up now; they were really something else.
Chapter 456 There's nothing to be afraid of anymore!
Mikaela had initially wondered if Tang Sanzang and Taro Urashima were Servant appeared later in the story.
Because he had thoroughly searched the desert region earlier and found no trace of any other Servant besides Arash beside him, he then went to the mountainous region where the Mountain People lived.
Later, thanks to King Hassan's 'guidance', he returned to the desert region once again, still not giving up. He checked the desert region briefly and, still finding no trace of other Servant, he...
At that time, Mikaela felt that Tang Sanzang and Taro Urashima were probably not Servant from the same period as Arash.
He then ignored the two of them and focused on winning over Ramesses II, while also looking for the Chaldea.
Of course, as everyone knows, Lancelot was nearly hit in the face with a shield by his beloved daughter and was warned by the city wall, so he had no choice but to obey Mikaela and the others.
Then the Shopkeeper's Daughter was kidnapped, Mikaela immediately launched a fight to the death against the Lion King.
Now that everything was over, Mikaela felt it was time to leave the Singularity, but she never expected that when she went to meet up with the others...
They actually discovered that Tang Sanzang and Taro Urashima had been captured.
Life is full of surprises! The two people who were thought not to appear made an appearance just as they were about to leave.
"Thank you, thank you. You are such a kind and understanding person. Buddha will bless you." After untying Tang Sanzang, the other person ran to Mikaela and said very earnestly, "Good people are rewarded. A kind person like you, female benefactor, will surely be blessed in the future."
"Female benefactor? Good fortune?" Mikaela sighed helplessly. He was too lazy to explain that he was a man at this point. Sometimes, people subconsciously judge others by their appearance.
He is clearly a boy, but the other person keeps saying he is a woman, even though he does look very feminine and has a rather aloof personality, so he doesn't explain much.
But you're a high-ranking monk, can't you be like Arash, who initially thought I was a woman but later realized I was a man?
Although Mikaela really wanted to complain, Tang Sanzang clearly wasn't going to listen. After his 'narrow escape,' he showered Mikaela with praise.
"Hahaha." Taro Urashima walked over and gave Mikaela a gentle smile, saying, "Thank you for your help. I am just a Servant without any power and was accidentally dragged into this battle. I am truly sorry."
Taro Urashima was very self-aware; once he realized the battle was over, he instinctively wanted to leave.
As a Servant, he knew that a lone Servant 'unwittingly' stumbled into this battle, even if out of curiosity, was easily mistaken for Servant from the opposing faction.
Sure enough! He was discovered.
Taro Urashima didn't consider himself to be unparalleled in strength, and after being discovered by others, he was able to break through the encirclement under the gaze of several Servant.
So he decisively chose to surrender, and then waited for the 'person in charge' to come over before declaring his innocence.
"No need to apologize, we're preparing to leave. You'll probably disappear from this world soon too." Mikaela glanced briefly at Hassan and the others, whose bodies were beginning to 'fade'.
Mikaela paused for a moment before continuing, "If you want to stay in this world, you can temporarily sign a contract with Ritsuka. She has other matters to attend to and will remain in this world for the time being."
"The Lion King is dead, the Sun King is dead, and the Purification Knight have been wiped out. I have no regrets." Kyoko appeared like a ghost. She had just returned from the battlefield and her body was beginning to show signs of hallucination.
Not only her, but most of the other Servant had not temporarily signed a contract with Fujimaru Ritsuka were experiencing hallucinations, as if they would soon disappear from this world.
Of course... there are exceptions.
Apart from the Servant around Fujimaru Ritsuka, Tang Sanzang's body surprisingly did not show these symptoms of impending disappearance; it seemed she could hold on for a little longer.
"Me too." X3.
The three Old Man of the Mountain, Bai Mao, Cursed Arm, Serenity, all expressed that they had no regrets. They did not belong to this world, so even if they left like this, they would not be filled with regret.
"Huh? You're all leaving?" Tang Sanzang seemed to be very familiar with them. She looked at Hassan and the others with some surprise and said, "I still need your guidance to take me to your village."
Although he had only been at the Lion King's place for about a day, Tang Sanzang had already planned out his schedule.
She needs to settle down in the Holy City first and rest for a while before continuing her 'westward journey' plan.
Besides the desert regions, Tang Sanzang also wanted to visit the places where the Old Man of the Mountain lived.
"..."
As expected, none of the Hassan paid any attention to Tang Sanzang. Apart from their cold personalities, they didn't know Tang Sanzang at all. Why should they bring him to their village to watch?
"So, Lady Ayla, is there anything we can help with next?" Hassan of the Arm looked at Mikaela and said in a very serious tone, "If there is anything else we can help with, then I am willing to temporarily sign a contract with Fujimaru Ritsuka, the Master from Chaldea."
"Me too." X3
Kyoko, Hyakume, Serenity nodded, indicating that they shared the same idea as Hassan of the Arm.
For Hassan and his people, Mikaela was not only a friend of the First Generation Master, but also a great benefactor who helped them defeat the Lion King and the Knights of the Round Table.
Before Mikaela intervened in the battle, the Old Man of the Mountain were severely suppressed by the Knights of the Round Table, and almost all of them lived like rats.
If it weren't for her help, who knows how long they would have had to wait for the chance to defeat the Lion King.
Of course, the Hassan believed that if they all failed, the First Generation Master would not stand idly by and would come out of the Temple of Azrael to personally kill the Lion King and the Knights of the Round Table.
So now, if Mikaela were to ask for their help, even at the cost of their lives, the four of them would do anything.
Because! There's nothing left to be afraid of!
The Lion King and the Sun King have both completely disappeared from this Singularity, and their wishes have been fulfilled.
"Let's sign a contract with her." Mikaela was naturally not coy. He said calmly, "Ritsuka will need your close protection from now on. I have other things to do."
Chapter 457 That blonde girl!
And just like that, Chaldea inexplicably signed several Servant.
Olga Marie couldn't help but sigh. What's the use of signing so many Servant?! They're not even as valuable as Mikaela!!!
These Servant only temporarily signed contracts with Chaldea because of Mikaela.
"I don't need to sign a contract," said Taro Urashima with a smile, as if he were a kind-hearted old man.
"...It's up to you. I won't force anyone to sign a contract." Mikaela glanced at Taro Urashima but didn't say anything more. Not only him, but Tang Sanzang also didn't sign a contract with Fujimaru Ritsuka.
The reason is simple: neither of them knows Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mikaela at all, and they would not agree to even a temporary contract.
Signing a contract with Servant is no small matter. Even if it's just a temporary contract, Fujimaru Ritsuka still has the power to Servant to a certain extent.
In order not to be taken advantage of, neither Taro Urashima nor Tang Sanzang Fujimaru Ritsuka easily sign a contract with her.
Simply put, the two sides didn't know each other well enough.
Not everyone is like a great hero, able to casually say to someone they've just met, "Be my Master!"
"Speaking of which, where are we going next? Wasn't this Singularity already resolved?" Olga Marie seemed quite helpless, somewhat puzzled and not quite understanding what Mikaela was talking about.
This Singularity, apart from 'Mikaela', has been resolved by all other factions.
Roman has also found out that the world's corrective forces have begun to act, with the only obstacle being Mikaela, who possesses the Magic King Grail.
However, judging from Mikaela's appearance, he seemed to leave quickly, so this Singularity can basically be left alone.
"It's resolved, but Ritsuka still needs to meet someone. Although her arrival time is earlier than usual, it's not a big deal." Mikaela said in a flat tone, her words somewhat incomprehensible.
"The timeline has been moved up?" Lancelot was a little confused. Shouldn't Chaldea be in this world by now?
"Meet someone???" Mash instantly became alert. Who was she meeting?! Male or female?!
"A Servant?" Olga Marie calmed down and looked at Mikaela, asking, "If he's not Servant, then don't tell me that guy is on the same level as Bedivere."
Bedivere had previously given the Chaldea quite a fright.
Good heavens! After discovering that Bedivere was not Servant, but a human who had lived for 1,500 years, Olga Marie immediately ordered the monitoring system to be strengthened to prevent this from happening again.
After all, this is just like fighting the Holy Grail War. The Chaldea team, who are in charge of the behind-the-scenes work, have to provide enough information for Fujimaru Ritsuka, who is in the Singularity.
Intelligence! It's of utmost importance!
"He's even more mysterious than Bedivere," Mikaela said calmly. He wasn't lying, because Holmes was indeed very mysterious in the story. He had a similar ability to travel between worlds as Musashi, and he didn't like to talk about 'himself'.
When Mikaela met him, she tried to test whether he was the real 'Holmes', but he just laughed it off.
According to the deductions of netizens from the previous life, Holmes is a 'living' being, but whether he is a living being in the 'present world' or in the 'Lostbelt' is unknown.
However, it is certain that Holmes has no ill intentions toward Chaldea, or rather, Fujimaru Ritsuka. As a detective, he has already put in 120% effort to help Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"??????"
Olga Marie seemed to have a headache. Her body was currently somewhere between a loli and a young girl, and her mind seemed to have regressed to that time as well.
Upon hearing Mikaela mention that the meeting with Fujimaru Ritsuka was even more 'mysterious' than Bedivere's, Olga Marie said listlessly, "Can't we not meet him? Can't you handle such a troublesome guy yourself?"
Clearly, compared to Da Vinci's 'false' title of Uomo Universale, in Olga Marie's eyes, Mikaela was the real Uomo Universale, and it couldn't be more convenient to have him do things.
Mikaela looked at Olga Marie with a puzzled expression and asked, "I'm not from Chaldea, why should I help you?"
"I can pay you a salary!" Olga Marie was wide awake at the mention of this. She slammed her hand on the table and declared righteously, "I will give you an unimaginable salary! Making you the richest person in the world would not be a problem."
Chaldea now possesses several Holy Grail, Olga Marie has a unique method to convert these Holy Grail into money!
If Mikaela were truly willing to Chaldea, then making her the richest woman would be a fairly simple matter.
"Heh." Mikaela gave a disdainful smile. Money? Was he that short of it? He didn't care about such things at all.
He's not interested in money!
If he were truly interested in money, he might not become the so-called richest man, but he would at least be a nouveau riche who doesn't lack money.
"There will always be a need, right? Why don't you consider it?" Olga Marie said shamelessly, seemingly sensing Mikaela's disdain.
"It's so embarrassing."
Da Vinci covered his eyes, as if he had seen something extremely 'embarrassing'.
"Hahahaha..." Roman also revealed a rather subtle smile, not knowing what to say for a moment. The director really had some wild ideas.
Do you really think money is everything?
If money could sway Servant, there would be no need for any organization dedicated to saving Human Order. Wouldn't it be better to just pay Servant to fight against the King of Magic?
"So, Sister Ella, where are we going?" Fujimaru Ritsuka ignored Director Olga's words.
The reason her parents were able to make Mikaela their servant wasn't because of money, but because an ordinary woman passing by introduced Sister Ella to them. Only after both parties agreed did Sister Ella become their servant.
Come to think of it, if it weren't for that ordinary woman who passed by, my family might never have had any connection with Sister Ella.
Mikaela replied to Fujimaru Ritsuka, "There is a repository of knowledge hidden in the desert called the Atlas Institute. Once you find that place, you can find the person I was talking about. Lancelot met that guy once before, so there is no question of them not knowing each other."
"Oh! That blonde girl!" Lancelot seemed to suddenly remember something. He looked at everyone seriously and said, "Before you arrived, I saw a blonde girl who looked like a scholar. I suppose that girl is the one that Miss Ella was talking about."
"..."
Mikaela remained silent.
Chapter 458 That guy is coming.
Why a blonde girl? And not that owl-like guy?
Mikaela really wanted to complain. Shouldn't he be focusing on Holmes instead of 'Victorious,' whom he had only met once before?
After all, when you and Mordred went after Holmes, he must have used some tricks to escape from you, right?
Compared to the defenseless blonde girl, the incredibly fast detective is probably the main focus of attention.
"You'll find out when the time comes," Mikaela said somewhat irritably.
"~~~~"
Arash wore a rather subtle expression. A blonde girl!? Could she be the one the Master transformed into back then?
When Arash first met Mikaela, he clearly remembered that her appearance was different from how she looked now.
