Moon World Girlfriend Comes Knocking Chapter 209

Berserker's Master nodded slowly. "His Spirit Origin has shrunk, and his current combat power is unprecedentedly weak. He can be killed with just one blow."

"Spirit Origin Shrinkage?" Minamoto no Raikō was slightly taken aback. "Among the Heroic Spirit in our camp, is there anyone who can shrink the Spirit Origin of other Servant?"

Berserker's Master remained silent for a moment, then said calmly, "This matter has nothing to do with you. Just do as I say! This is a rare opportunity. If we eliminate Caster, our chances of winning will increase by at least 30%!"

Based on their assessment, the core of the Red Faction is most likely the Red Caster. If they eliminate him, then with their several Servant and the help of that Heroic Spirit, obtaining the Holy Grail will not be difficult.

According to intelligence, the enemy is Merlin, the Court Mage of Britain, and the assassin Mordred is also from Britain, so there may be some connection between the two.

While some Heroic Spirit lose certain memories of their past lives when Heroic Spirit Summoning, this is not the case for every Heroic Spirit.

Mordred, for example, is a case in point.

She has some memories of the last Holy Grail War, but not all of them. It's like how a person won't fully remember what happened in kindergarten, but if it was something very memorable, they will still have related memories decades later.

"Did you hear me, Berserker?"

Upon hearing his Master's voice, Minamoto no Raikō merely frowned slightly and politely declined, saying, "I'm sorry, Master, I cannot bring myself to harm a child."

"He is a Caster, not a child! Having accepted the Holy Grail's call, he should be prepared to be killed, regardless of whether he is a Heroic Spirit or not!"

The man in the darkness gazed at the alluring female Servant, awaiting her answer.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Berserker's expression remained hesitant, the man's tone became colder:

"Berserker, you should know that you are my familiar. Now you're not even listening to your Master anymore?!"

Minamoto no Raikō hesitated for a moment, but still made no move.

"Berserker!" The man's voice rose a few decibels as he stared at her aggressively.

After a long silence, Minamoto no Raikō replied softly, "Yes... Master."

However, after answering, Minamoto no Raikō sighed softly.

"I see."

In an apartment in Tokyo.

Sajyou Manaka held the Magic Potion in her hand, glanced at the scene on the screen again, and fell into deep thought about life.

She had originally planned to feed Lan Ze some Magic Potion, but before she could even make a move, someone else had already done it.

The scene depicts a small room with only a bed, where the Saintess is embracing the young man, seemingly preparing for a good night's sleep.

"Isn't she the referee?" After a long silence, Sajyou Manaka finally couldn't help but ask softly.

Shouldn't the adjudicator be prohibited from having too close contact with the Servant?

Why are they not only in close contact now, but even sleeping in the same room?

Also, what's with that kind and compassionate expression on Miss Saintess's face right now?

"Because the person who attacked him was Heroic Spirit outside of the Holy Grail Grand War, it's considered a special case... That's probably how Jeanne d'Arc' Arc judged it," Irisviel said gently.

She always believed in Jeanne d'Arc of Arc, because the other party was the judge, and those who could be adjudicated by the Holy Grail should all be able to uphold a fair and impartial attitude, right?

Irisviel looked at the Miss Referee in the picture, who was embracing the boy, and thought with some uncertainty.

She never imagined that King Arthur would look like this in his childhood. She didn't consider herself to have any particular hobbies, but when she saw Lan Ze like this, she still wanted to hug him... Yes, just a simple hug, like Jeanne d'Arc does now.

Unfortunately, she couldn't accept the Heroic Spirit Summoning as a spirit like Scathach; she could only watch from here, unable to touch them.

Irisviel turned her head slightly to look at her side. Tiamat was holding a buttered paper bag, and steam was rising from the meat buns, making people's mouths water. Her bright eyes, like stars, were staring at the image on the screen, her pupils slightly unfocused, as if she was in a daze.

"Mother...?" Irisviel called softly.

"Aaaa!!!"

Suddenly, Tiamat lunged at the wall. Sajyou Manaka reacted swiftly, flashing in front of her to stop her. Their cheeks collided with the large breasts. Although there was no physical injury, it caused great emotional damage.

"Calm down! No matter how excited you are, you can't possibly descend into Fuyuki!" Sajyou Manaka placed her hands on Tiamat's shoulders to prevent her from crashing into the wall.

"Yes, Mother, and the other party is a referee, not the kind of person who would harm him. We just need to wait for him to come back, okay?" Irisviel chimed in, trying to persuade him.

"And with Master and Ishtar there, they'll protect Lan Ze."

After being persuaded by the two men, Tiamat gradually calmed down. She gazed longingly at the image on the screen and finally let out a disappointed "Aaa".

She wasn't actually doing anything special to her child; she just wanted to hug him... When she looked at Joan of Jeanne d'Arc, she would subconsciously put herself in Jeanne d'Arc and think about what she would do if she were Jeanne d'Arc.

Just thinking about it made Tiamat feel itchy and eager to fly straight to Fuyuki.

It's a pity that Fuyuki's current Singularity Human Order Foundation Value is not high. If she were to descend, the Human Order Foundation Value would skyrocket, which would cause trouble for Humanity's Order.

Just watching it from here, that itch-like feeling of wanting something but being completely unable to touch it is so agonizing.

Tiamat took a meat bun from the buttered paper bag, took a small bite, glanced at the image, and sighed softly.

Life is tough, Mother of All sighs. jpg

Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Ryougi Shiki stood at the doorway, dressed in a plain-colored kimono, looking at the three people inside. She then glanced at Tiamat's sorrowful and dejected expression with concern, tilting her head slightly. "What's wrong, Mother?"

She could hear Tiamat's "Aaa" sounds from outside, and thought something had happened, so she put down what she was doing and came to check on it.

Now it seems like nothing really happened?

"She wants to go to Fuyuki to find her child," Irisviel explained softly.

Ryougi Shiki raised an eyebrow and glanced again at Tiamat, with her long, wavy black hair cascading down her back, was holding a meat bun in her hands and starry eyes gazing longingly at the image in front of her.

Ryougi Shiki secretly shook her head and said calmly, "Waiting for him to come back here is the same, isn't it?"

She was just researching whether there were other ways to accept the Holy Grail's summons when this thought suddenly came to mind. The Holy Grail War wouldn't last long; she could simply wait in Tokyo, there was no need to necessarily accept the Holy Grail's summons, right?

Scathach wanted to go to the Holy Grail War simply to find someone to spar with, while Ishtar was just bored...

She had no interest in the Holy Grail or sparring, so why would she go to Fuyuki?

The Creation Mother Goddess really does rely on her child; she couldn't bear to be apart for so long... Ryougi Shiki secretly shook her head, thinking that Tiamat was too dependent on Lan Ze.

As she thought about it, she looked up at the relaxed image on the wall.

The image shows a slightly immature face, almost entirely embraced by Jeanne d'Arc, seemingly asleep, but appearing to be breathing with some difficulty.

Ryougi Shiki's gaze slowly fixed on the scene in the video. After a long silence, she spoke in a low voice, tinged with something unusual:

"Who is he...?"

She had a vague idea of what was going on, but she still couldn't quite believe it.

"The images playing here are what Lan Ze saw. Who do you think he is?" Sajyou Manaka retorted.

A long silence fell over the room.

Ryougi Shiki's gaze was fixed on the child in the picture. Her composure, which she had maintained for so long, was finally broken, and for the first time, a hint of excitement shone in her clear and bright eyes.

The Tohsaka Family!

In the hall, Matou Sakura sat anxiously on the sofa, occasionally looking up at the window.

The black tea on the table had long since gone cold.

She waited at home for almost an hour, but still didn't receive a single word from her senior.

Logically speaking, if he were to travel by Heavenly Ark, the round trip shouldn't have taken much time.

But so much time has passed, and I still haven't seen him.

Sitting opposite Matou Sakura was her Tohsaka Rin. She had just returned and learned that Caster was gone forever.

Tohsaka Rin picked up her teacup and took a sip of black tea, only to realize that she had unknowingly finished it while absentmindedly chatting.

She gently set down her teacup, looked up at Medea beside her, and said, "Miss Medea, are you also unable to contact him?"

Medea nodded silently. "I can't sense Master's location yet."

"It's just that we can't feel it, not that it's disappeared... This means that he must have encountered something that caused him to be delayed, perhaps in some special environment or something like that?" Scathach analyzed.

When she was in the Land of Shadows, no one else could sense her presence either.

Because the Land of Shadows is a realm of the dead and wandering souls, and she is the queen of the Land of Shadows, making her the only living being there.

No... even she can't be considered a living being.

In short, no one could detect her when she was in the Land of Shadows, so she guessed that Lan Ze might be in a similar environment.

"A place like Avalon...?" Artoria murmured to herself.

Scathach gave Artoria an approving look, paused, and then said, "Or perhaps he was simply attacked... but that's unlikely. My disciple, in terms of combat strength alone, wouldn't be easily defeated even if he encountered multiple Servant."

"At the very least, a battle would cause quite a commotion; it's impossible for them to disappear without a trace."

"So, the Caster really is located in some special environment?" Karen rested her chin on her hand, a hint of confusion in her pale golden eyes.

"But I've never heard of any place in Fuyuki that can isolate someone's presence, making it impossible for Servant to detect the Master's location."

"What else could it be? It couldn't be that he defected to the enemy, could it?" Ishtar said with her hands on her hips.

The entire hall fell silent instantly.

"Hey, you guys aren't really taking this seriously, are you?" She looked left and right, unable to resist making a comment.

"That's one line of thinking, although I don't think Caster would side with the Black Faction unless he's a spy or something..." Tohsaka Rin said, giving Ishtar a strange look again.

This goddess looks so much like me, but why doesn't she seem very intelligent?

"No, he's not the kind of person who would become a spy." Ishtar shook her head, glanced at Tohsaka Rin, and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.

This human looks so much like me, how come they're so slow-witted?

"Could it be that they were taken back by the Creation Mother Goddess?" Illya suddenly asked.

"Impossible." This time, Ishtar's answer was unusually decisive and firm.

"If Mother were to truly descend, there would be no way she wouldn't make a sound."

Scathach nodded slightly.

Given Tiamat's status, there's simply no possibility of her secretly descending upon Fuyuki, taking away her child, and then secretly leaving.

"Why do you all seem to know so much about that Mother Goddess...?" Artoria raised an eyebrow, feeling a strange unease she couldn't quite put her finger on.

Why do these people all seem to know Tiamat so well?

"I've been living with my mother for a while now, so it couldn't have been her."

Ishtar paused again, then continued, "If it were Mother, her song would probably have echoed throughout Fuyuki when she arrived."

"It's that kind of 'Aaa~' singing voice." Ishtar imitated Tiamat's singing voice.

"So, the possibility of an accident is indeed higher...?" Tohsaka Rin murmured to herself.

Was it the Black Faction that did this?

"But why is it only targeting Father King?" Mordred muttered.

While my Father King is indeed powerful, surely it doesn't warrant the Black Faction expending so much effort to deal with him?

"It's probably because he took two Servant the Black Faction in two consecutive days, and the Black Faction's Master is afraid that all of their Servant will run away in another two days?" Ishtar said casually.

The hall suddenly fell silent.

Ishtar looked at everyone in astonishment, and said incredulously, "Hey, you guys actually believe that? That's impossible!"

This is a proper Holy Grail Grand War. Mordred betrayed us because she is the child of Divine Messenger, and Medea was simply saved by Lan Ze. But how could the other Servant betray us so easily?

"If it were Father King, I think anything is possible," Mordred muttered.

Scathach said calmly, "We've gotten off-topic. The key task now is to find Caster's location and bring him back."

Karen nodded slightly, her expression solemn.

Illya's previously casual expression suddenly became much more serious.

Artoria glanced at the Master, a hint of doubt flashing across her eyes.

That's strange. Logically speaking, if Lan Ze disappeared, the Master would be worried, but not this much.

The anxious and worried reaction from this group of people made her feel uneasy.
