Is It Fun?

He knew it was pointless to ask; Scathach would tell him if she wanted to, and wouldn't if she didn't.

Scathach nodded slightly. "I suppose it's resolved."

Welcome back!

Yuxian felt instantly at ease. With Scathach here, everything would become simpler, and his confidence immediately surged.

This is due to the image that Scathach has always given Yuxian; in Yuxian's view, there are very few things that Scathach cannot solve.

Powerful, wise, and beautiful—these words have always been associated with Scathach.

Who is this?

Waver and the others were very curious when they saw Scathach appear. It was the first time they had ever seen Scathach. She had an extraordinary presence and was definitely not an ordinary person.

Yuxian introduced her with great seriousness and pride, "She is the Lord of the Magical Realm, the queen of the Shadow Land, Cú Chulainn and my mentor, Scathach!"

"This... this..."

"You actually know such an important person!"

Everyone stared in disbelief at Yuxian and Scathach; the impact of this was truly significant for them.

The legend of Scathach instantly came to mind; she was someone who had a legend of killing gods.

Scathach was simply standing there, yet she seemed to possess a powerful aura that intimidated everyone present. This is probably what is meant by a strong person.

At this moment, no one cared about Cú Chulainn anymore; with this man around, Cú Chulainn could only obediently accept the scolding.

They even started to feel a little sorry for Cú Chulainn. He finally managed to appear in the world, but he still ran into Scathach. He was really unlucky.

It's like a student who's out playing suddenly running into their homeroom teacher at an arcade; anyone who's experienced that feeling can definitely understand it.

Scathach ignored the stares of others and looked at Yuxian, continuing to ask, "Has the matter here not been resolved yet?"

"Hmm... it seems there was a slight mishap." Yuxian was a little embarrassed, as he was largely to blame for how things had turned out this way.

"But now that Master is here, everything is fine!"

Yuxian complimented him without hesitation.

Scathach nodded. "You can play for a few more days if you want."

"Play?"

Everyone was frustrated. Did Scathach think they were just playing around?

Scathach waved her hand. "I won't get involved. You guys continue."

As she spoke, she walked into the Matou Family mansion under Emiya's guidance, and went to rest, as if she had truly decided to give up on the Holy Grail War.

"Mr. Yuxian, this..."

Everyone looked at Yuxian and asked for his opinion.

Yuxian smiled wryly and said, "Since Master says so, she definitely won't get involved. We'll have to rely on ourselves."

He knew Scathach's personality very well; when she didn't want to speak or act, she would truly just be an observer.

Unless Yuxian others encounter real danger, don't expect Scathach to actually make a move.

"Let's continue with the planned approach and first investigate Arash's Master."

Yuxian shook his head and decided to continue tonight's operation. Scathach's appearance gave him peace of mind, but they still had to do things themselves.

"Then what about them?"

Olga Marie pointed to Cú Chulainn and Bazett.

Cú Chulainn was pinned to the spot by the two Gae Bolg, unable to move, and Scathach showed no intention of letting him go.

Bazett stood quietly beside Cú Chulainn, her head bowed, her expression hidden.

"Sigh... they'll probably have to stay here in the cold wind tonight."

Seeing Cú Chulainn in such an embarrassing state, Yuxian could only feel sorry for him, and he even felt a little bit of secret satisfaction.

However, he calmly reassured Cú Chulainn from afar, saying, "Don't worry, your master will definitely release you when it gets light."

Dawn breaks...

Cú Chulainn felt a pang of sorrow. It was only the beginning of night, and it would be a whole night before dawn!

Bazett quickly said, "I'll go and beg her to release you."

Don't go!

Cú Chulainn immediately stopped her; he knew Scathach's character—she wasn't someone who could begged to change her mind.

"I'd better wait until dawn; it won't be long anyway."

He couldn't even twist his neck now, and could only sigh, "What bad luck..."

Is Chapter 57, Section 278, fun?

Scathach didn't rest immediately after arriving at her room; instead, she turned around and went to another place.

Scathach was pacing anxiously in the room when she pushed the door open and came in.

"Master..."

Upon seeing the visitors, they immediately quieted down, sitting obediently in a row, their posture very serious, motionless like good children.

Scathach walked up to them and glanced at the small screen that was still playing Yuxian's image in real time.

She asked softly, "Is it fun?"

"It's fun..."

"It's not fun!"

Gretel glared at Jack fiercely. "You want to die if you say it's fun at a time like this?"

Little Jeanne looked at Scathach with her big, watery eyes and pleaded, "Master, please don't tell the Master, okay?"

Scathach didn't speak, and her expression didn't change at all.

She simply glanced at them, then at the few Servant in the room, and said nothing more, leaving as quietly as she had come.

No one knows why she came here.

After Scathach left, the children whispered among themselves, "Did Master agree or not?"

"She must have agreed, right? Otherwise, she would have already taken us back."

"That's hard to say. Maybe she'll come with her Master to capture us soon."

"Should we run away?"

"Where can we run to? Sigh... It's so hard being a child!"

The children all fell silent, and the room suddenly became very quiet.

Thinking of the tragic state of Cú Chulainn they had just witnessed, they felt a pang of sympathy, and Scathach's expressionless face only made them more uneasy.

After a while, they couldn't help but start discussing it again.

Should we turn ourselves in?

"Why should we turn ourselves in? We haven't done anything wrong."

"Aren't we doing something wrong?"

"I don't think so..."

"Then... shall we continue?"

This question stumped them again, and everyone hesitated.

Should we continue? Or should we just stop and pretend nothing happened?

This is a very difficult choice.

Little Jeanne stood up and said seriously, "Since we've already been discovered, we might as well continue. Even if we end up like Cú Chulainn, it won't be a loss."

Her remarks left Jeanne d'Arc speechless; this reckless and self-destructive behavior was truly eye-opening for her.

What surprised her even more was that the other children nodded in agreement with the decision.

They actually thought this made a lot of sense and all agreed with this statement.

Now that they've been caught, it's too late to stop. They might as well keep going; at least they'll be happy.

The children's thinking was very simple; it wasn't that complicated. Since they were going to be hung up anyway, they might as well take advantage of the opportunity to have some fun.

"Then let's go all out!"

Gretel quickly began to consider her next plan. Time was running out, and if she didn't take this opportunity to make a scene, she would feel like she was letting herself down after all the hard work she had put in these past few days.

"Then let's discuss it properly."

"That's all for today. Let's go back and prepare. We'll officially start implementing the plan tomorrow."

After making their decision, the children left together and returned home. They had no interest in continuing that night; they had bigger goals.

"Aren't you going to stop them?"

Jeanne d'Arc looked at her silent companion in the room with some resentment. She wanted to stop them, but it would be difficult for her to do so on her own.

Arash laughed and said, "Why should I stop you?"

"They're up to no good. What if things get out of control?"

Jeanne d'Arc was very worried that the children would cause too much trouble and become uncontrollable. She still couldn't accept their misbehavior; the usually dignified Saintess had never encountered anything like this before.

You're overthinking it.

Arash shook his head. "You saw the person who came earlier. She probably came to warn me, so you don't need to be afraid."

"Speaking of which, your personality is very different from when you were a child!"

Jeanne d'Arc was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer. In her heart, she cried out: I wasn't like this when I was a child.

But she couldn't say it, because the facts were right in front of her, and any words seemed pale and powerless in the face of them.

"Get some rest. I have a feeling we'll be very busy tomorrow."

Everyone understood what Arash meant: these kids were planning something big, and their involvement was definitely essential.

Who knows what might happen tomorrow? It's best to take advantage of this free time to rest and recharge.

The rest of the night was peaceful, except for Cú Chulainn, who spent the night in the cold wind.

Just as she said, Scathach then did not get involved in Yuxian's affairs at all.

Bazett and Cú Chulainn arrived at the Matou Family early in the morning to visit Scathach, but before they could even speak, they were swept away by a long spear.

The two could only leave dejectedly, and no one knows where they went.

The children were still nowhere to be seen during the day, and no one except Scathach knew what they were doing.

Yu Xian was troubled by his status as Arash's Master, so he thought for Yuxian and shamelessly asked Scathach for help.

"Master, could you share some information with me?"

Scathach watched him with interest until she saw Yuxian creep down Yu Xian's spine, then said calmly, "You know him."

"I know him?"

Yuxian immediately began to rack his brains. He knew quite a few people and couldn't determine who it was in a short time.

Scathach's statement suggests that things are not as bad as they seem, and that those people probably don't have much ill will towards them.

He stopped asking questions and started strategizing with everyone again, trying to finish this damned Holy Grail War as soon as possible.

The Holy Grail War has lasted for three nights, and tonight will be the fourth night.

There will be seven nights in total to determine the final winner, but so far they seem to have done nothing.

Not a single Servant has left the stage yet.
