"Sir Lancelot, although I do not wish to think so, please allow to confirm... is your position the sa as the others, on the side of the Holy City?"
"Naturally. We have long since chosen the object of our allegiance. It is aningless to ask these questions again, Bedivere."
"Is that so..." Bedivere sighed lightly, a flash of disappointnt in his eyes. He silently drew the longsword from his waist and said firmly, "If that is the case, then you can only be our enemy. Lord An, please be careful later. Although Lancelot is of the valiant and unrivaled type on the battlefield, he is actually also very good at concealing his presence. Please pay attention to his attacks."
"I know, Bedivere." Rin Aosaki nodded, the long spear in his hand slightly raised. After all, everything Bedivere said, he was very familiar with. Just from sparring, he had done it countless tis with the "Lancelot" from another world.
"An... so the 'King's' foster brother Sir Gawain spoke of is you? Although you are the brother of the 'King' from another world, you are indeed very familiar with all our moves." Understanding that the owner of the voice of reminder just now was the youth before him, Lancelot corrected his expression, but his emotions were still a bit strange. Because facing soone who was very familiar with you, but whom you did not know, this subtle feeling made the Knight of the Lake unable to describe it for a mont.
But one thing he was very clear about was that the youth before him could single-handedly stop Gawain and Agravain. If he didn't use his full strength, it would probably be difficult to win. The air on the scene instantly beca tense.
And on the other side, not quite understanding why the suddenly appearing youth and young knight were helping her, Serenity's eyes held a bit of confusion. But at this mont, Ritsuka and the others, who had already driven the all-terrain vehicle over, also parked the vehicle on the side and joined the battle.
"Are you alright? You seem to be seriously injured... Um, Manaka-chan, could I trouble you to co over and treat this Servant lady a little?" As soon as she got out of the car, Ritsuka imdiately noticed Serenity, who seed to still be confused and covered in wounds. She subconsciously asked a certain girl for help.
But for so reason, Manaka, who had previously maintained the appearance of a worried girl in love, at this mont had a face so cold it was a bit scary.
"'King's' foster brother? Another world's 'King's' brother? What's that? I've never heard of this stray cat. Who on earth is making moves on that child..."
The words muttered under her breath ca out like a curse. Having heard the words of a certain Knight of the Lake through enhanced hearing magic while they were rushing over, the anxiety in Manaka's heart surged up again, her eyes faintly taking on an empty look.
It was only when Ritsuka's words sounded in her ear, interrupting her thoughts, that Manaka, as if she hadn't heard, continued to think back on what Rin Aosaki and Bedivere had said about the Holy City when they were leading the wanderers in search of the People of the Mountain. But there was no ntion of any "King's foster brother" in it, which made her purse her lips in frustration.
Seeing her voice completely ignored, Ritsuka could only cough lightly and mutter to herself with disappointnt, "Strange, I just seed to rember how to successfully 'seduce' the opposite sex, but now I've suddenly forgotten again..."
A certain thought in her heart was triggered by these words. Manaka ca to her senses, glared at Ritsuka who was scratching her head and looking elsewhere, and could only first put aside the question of the "King's foster brother" and walk unhappily to Serenity.
"I'm sorry, although I understand your good intentions, please don't casually tou—" Worried that her constitution would bring danger to the blonde girl who was reaching out her hand, Serenity quickly shrank back and tried to stop her.
But before she could finish, Manaka rudely interrupted, "Shut up. Sit still and don't move." As if afraid that a certain youth would hear this command that did not match her character, Manaka deliberately lowered her voice. At the sa ti, several healing spells were imdiately cast. With a point of her finger on Serenity's injured shoulder, the wounds on the assassin girl's body slowly healed up completely.
"It... it's fine..." As if shocked by a fact that should not have occurred, Serenity blinked blankly and looked up at Manaka, whose pretty face held a bit of impatience.
And after finishing the treatnt, Manaka didn't stay any longer, but walked towards where the others were confronting each other, her gaze once again on Rin Aosaki's back.
"Please wait..."
Serenity, having co to her senses, couldn't help but want to call out to the departing Manaka. But the girl completely ignored her voice, which made her instinctively stand up and want to chase after her. But even though her body had healed, the stamina consud in the previous battle with Lancelot had not yet recovered. Her footsteps couldn't help but stumble, and she almost fell. Fortunately, Ritsuka at her side promptly supported her and said with a sigh of relief, "That was close. You've just recovered, it's best not to move around for now. That person, although she seems a bit self-centered, is actually a good person at heart. If you want to thank her, you can go later. Also, if possible, could you explain why you were fighting with that knight?"
Serenity stood there as if doubting reality, turned her head to look at Ritsuka who was supporting her, and subconsciously asked, "Why... are you also fine? Don't you feel... uncomfortable anywhere?"
"Hm?" Ritsuka was stunned for a mont, then scratched her face and said with so confusion, "Speaking of which, my body does feel a little numb, but it's probably because the car was going too fast just now..."
Serenity was speechless for a mont, looking down at her own hands, blinking blankly. You see, due to her constitution, anyone who ca into contact with her would be infected with a deadly poison, and even die because of it. But now, suddenly, two people had appeared who had no reaction at all after touching her.
Could it be that this kind of person is very common now...
The assassin girl, who had always been looking forward to this in the past, because of the successive "surprises," couldn't help but doubt her own value.
At the sa ti, on the other side.
"Mash, what's wrong?"
Seeing that Mash's mood seed a bit off, Da Vinci, who had been preparing to cover Rin Aosaki, couldn't help but ask after unfolding her Mystic Code.
However, Mash just shook her head blankly. But soon, an angry expression appeared on her face, and she frowned. "I don't know, Miss Da Vinci. But as soon as I see that person, I feel... very angry."
Summoning the cross-shaped giant shield into her hands, Mash, uncontrollably, before Rin Aosaki could begin his attack, was the first to charge in front of Lancelot, the giant shield smashing directly towards the Knight of the Lake's body as she shouted angrily, "You parasite, you still have the face to stand here!"
