Chapter 299 King Arthur
The white smoke slowly dissipated, revealing a beautiful golden figure clad in a skirt and armor.
"?"
Upon seeing the true form of the Heroic Spirit, Irisviel exclaimed in surprise; it was somewhat different from what she had expected.
The time had said that the summoning process, using the sword sheath as a catalyst, should have been a king, but what appeared was a young girl with a single ahoge (a cowlick-like hair sticking up).
Despite her cold gaze, her skin looked soft and snow-white. Her golden hair was piled up, and her eyes were emerald green. Her face was pretty even without makeup, and she had a petite figure... If it weren't for her armor-like dress, she would have doubted whether she had summoned a heroic spirit.
"Is the time wrong?" Irisviel asked, looking at the girl who had appeared.
"no."
Shi Chen shook his head, looking at the serious girl with a smile: "She is the Heroic Spirit I am going to summon."
Despite his expression, he was actually relieved; he was genuinely afraid that he would summon a man.
That would be hopeless.
"And who is she?"
"The legendary king of ancient Britain, also known as King Arthur, was called the knight among knights—King of Knights."
"What? How could this be?::::"
.
Irisviel was shocked. She knew of the legendary king, but she never expected that it would be this girl who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old.
Is history fake?
"Don't overthink it. History has its hidden aspects, but all you need to know is that she is indeed King Arthur."
"That's true...::::" Irisviel nodded slowly, "If it really is that King Arthur, our chances of winning are much higher."
"It's hard to say, assuming I'm not there."
"You don't even know how to be humble, Shichen... :.:" Irisviel laughed.
"I'm telling the truth."
The hour approached the still-contemplative Heroic Spirit, stood before her, and extended his hand: "King Arthur, hello, I am your Master."
Time of day.
"Time...I understand."
The girl snapped out of her daze, nodded, and reached out to grasp Tokichi's hand: "Master, I am Saber, summoned to fight alongside you."
From the moment she was summoned, Saber knew everything, even modern knowledge.
The Holy Grail's gift of riding ability also allows her to freely drive all modes of transportation, including motorcycles and airplanes.
It's quite convenient.
"Saber... well, I'll call you that for now." Feeling the solidity of Saber's handshake and her youthful face, Toki finally confirmed that she was indeed a young girl.
His affection for her was undeniable; it had blossomed the moment he first met her. And so, when she appeared before him like this, an inexplicable anger welled up within him.
It's truly shameful that group of people would place such a huge responsibility on a young girl and then say that she doesn't understand people's hearts.
Regardless of the legends, when Saber appeared before him, she was just a young girl, at most a somewhat powerful one.
A feeling of pity naturally arose.
"Master?" Saber looked at Shichen in confusion, his hand suddenly clenching.
"Feel sorry...:
Shi Chen shook his head, adjusted his mindset, let go of her, and turned to leave: "Saber, nice to meet you in the future."
Once outside, Shichen didn't look back and slowly disappeared from Saber's sight.
"Saber, nice to meet you~" Irisviel approached Saber and said with a smile.
"Who are you?" Saber looked at her in confusion.
"My name is Irisviel, Irisviel von Einzbern."
"Irisviel... what is your relationship with Master?" Saber asked directly.
"Hmm... it seems like she can only be his daughter's mother," Irisviel replied, resting her hand on her chin, somewhat uncertainly.
"Master has a daughter?" Saber was a little surprised. Shichen's appearance didn't look like that of someone who had a child.
"Then aren't you his wife?"
"No, that's not true."
"Huh?" Saber was stunned.
"I'll explain later, but for now, just settle in," Irisviel said gently.
"I see.:::
"Let's go out first." Irisviel suddenly took Saber's arm affectionately and pulled her away.
"Irisviel?"
"Don't worry about it~ Don't worry about it~"
"this::
Saber found herself unable to free her hand and could only be led by Irisviel, whose closeness made her a little uncomfortable.
Irisviel was no stranger to Saber; after all, from the outside, she looked like a cute girl of fifteen or sixteen. They were still so young. So she led her around the Einzbern family home.
After exploring the living area, Irisviel took Saber to the courtyard.
"lady."
When Sera and Liss saw Irisviel, they bowed their heads and greeted her respectfully.
"Sera, Lisse, this is the Servant of Time, Saber," Irisviel greeted the two warmly.
"Saber." The two of them kept their heads down, showing no reaction to her girlish appearance.
"Who are they?" Saber looked at the two of them, frowning. She immediately noticed that something was wrong with them.
"They are artificial life forms, just like me."
"I see.....
Aren't you surprised?
"Not surprised." Saber shook her head slightly with a calm expression.
"Oh, as expected of a Heroic Spirit. By the way, could you tell me about yourself?"
"There's not much to say about me... I'd like to talk to Master."
"I see."
Irisviel noticed that Saber's expression was a little strange, but thinking about it, she knew that, unlike the legends, she was such a young girl, so there must be a lot of bad things going on.
"Where is Master?"
"It should be... over there."
Irisviel led Saber to the city wall, where they looked down and saw Shichin playing in the snow with Illya and Shisei outside the castle.
The three were having a snowball fight, with Ilya and Shi Ying taking on Shi Chen two-on-one.
"Dad! Take this!"
"Brother, I'm sorry..."
Ilya and Shi Ying kept throwing snowballs at Shi Chen from a spot not far away.
Shichen easily dodged the attacks, occasionally getting hit, but didn't retaliate.
"No way, they can't hit me at all."
"Hmph~ Dad, don't be so smug! Watch me!"
"Is that Master's daughter? She looks just like you."
"After all, I am a mother." Irisviel nodded smugly.
"And who is the other little girl?"
"She was rescued by Shi Chen and taken in by him. Her name is Shi Ying."
"Master... is a good person." Saber was mesmerized by the sight.
"Indeed."
"However..." Saber hesitated, then stopped herself.
"Is there a problem?" Irisviel asked, looking at her.
"This is a little different from the Master I just met..." Saber gazed at Shichen, who was smiling indulgently.
"There's not much difference, is there?" Irisviel didn't seem to feel anything.
"But Master seemed really angry just now... Could it be because I'm a girl? Does she think I'm not capable?"
"It's not that serious," Irisviel laughed. "Shichen wouldn't care about such things."
"Then why was he so angry just now?" Saber asked Irisviel.
"Saber, are you King Arthur?" Irisviel asked solemnly.
"Yes." Saber nodded.
"That's right. Your legend is known to almost everyone in our generation, but since you're a girl, then... it must have been very tough for you, right?"
"It's not hard work, it's my duty." Saber said expressionlessly.
"But Shichen doesn't think so~" Irisviel turned to look at the baby, her smile sweet.
Having spent a year together, she knew exactly what kind of person Shichen was. Since Saber was a girl, how could he not be angry for her?
"Master? Why?" Saber asked, puzzled.
"It's very simple. Shichen is angry because of your experiences, and angry at those who imposed responsibility on you."
"Why?" Saber still didn't understand.
"Heh~ It seems you're still unaware, Saber."
"I?"
"Because you are cute."
"Me? Cute? Just because of that?" Saber frowned.
That's enough.
"Ilya, Toki, Toki, come back quickly, it's time for lunch!" Irisviel waved and called out to Toki and the others.
"it is good."
Shi Chen hoisted Ilya and Shi Ying onto his shoulders, one on each side, and jumped up from the spot.
"Dad is so amazing!"
"Mmm! Big brother is the best!"
Ilya and Shi Ying praised her in sweet voices.
"Really? Really?"
Shichen seemed very happy, and the two children's praise was heartfelt.
Master.
"There's no rush yet."
Shichen interrupted Saber: "You have something you want to talk to me about, right? But you should finish your meal first. My cooking should satisfy you."
"Master's... craftsmanship?"
"The food Shichen makes is delicious," Irisviel explained from the side.
"Mmm, Dad's cooking is the best."
"I also love my brother's cooking the most."
