"Come on, Saber."
With that, Fang Mo shouldered her spear and walked toward her. "Let me poke you a couple of times first and get comfortable..."
"..."
However, Artoria in the distance said nothing. Or rather, her mentality had already collapsed. She merely leaned heavily on her sword, panting, completely ignoring Fang Mo as she approached.
After all, she was actually quite similar to Lancer.
They were both Heroic Spirits from the Middle Ages.
