The terrible situation that Saber had expected did not happen. The man opposite him pushed the little girl behind him forward and spoke gently.
"Sakura, say hello to this big sister.”
"Hello, sister." Sakura was still a little shy. After greeting him, she retreated behind Navenmoor.
"Hehe, what a cute little girl.”Alice smiled. Looking at Sakura reminded her of her daughter Eliya.
"This is my first time seeing the sea.”Looking at the pitch-black sea, Alisfell's face was filled with excitement, like an innocent little daughter.
"We should come here at dawn. That's when we can see the most beautiful sea view.”Navenmoor turned to face the sea, speaking as he gently stroked Sakura's little head.
Sakura squinted her eyes, enjoying the warm touch like a kitten.
"The relationship between you siblings is really good.”Seeing this scene, Alisfell could not help but laugh out loud.
"Because I'm the only family member of this child.”Navenmore sighed softly.
" I'm sorry to bring up your sad story…" Seeing the sadness on Ying Xiaoxiao's face, Alisfall said apologetically.
"It's fine. I won't disturb Madam from admiring the night view. I'll take my sister back first.”With a perfect bow, Niven Moore left with Sakura. Saber finally heaved a sigh of relief.
"Saber, what's wrong? You look like you have a lot on your mind.”Hearing the panting of the knight behind her, Alisfell asked curiously.
Saber shook his head with a bitter smile. Perhaps he was too nervous.
"The sea at night is so beautiful. Like a mirror of the night sky."
Hearing the sound of the waves, a smile gradually appeared on Alisfell's face.
Perhaps it was because she had a good time today, but a faint blush appeared on her snow-white cheeks. Looking at her like this, no one would think that she was already married and had a child. Her smile was so pure and innocent, as if she was still a teenage girl.
"So it's such a pleasure to walk in an unfamiliar city with you, Knight.”
"I wonder if my performance as a fake knight is qualified?”Saber, a heroic spirit who never smiled, actually said something like this to make fun of Alisfel.
"Passed, and impeccable. Saber, you are the most perfect knight in the world today.”
"It's my honor. Your Highness." Faced with the sincere girl in black, Alisfell turned her face to the sea shyly.
"Saber, do you like the sea?”
" This…" Saber smiled bitterly. His thoughts flew back to his distant hometown.
"In my time. My country…the other side of the sea is where the invaders gather. So all I can think of are unpleasant memories.”
" I see…" Alisfel's expression turned serious after hearing Saber's answer.
All of a sudden, Saber grabbed both of Alisfel's arms and pulled her closer to him. Because of this action, Alisfel's calm gaze instantly met Saber's.
"…Enemy Servant?”
"Yes." That's right, in the shadows about a hundred meters away, the enemy deliberately exposed his aura as if he was provoking them. He knew that Saber had already sensed his presence, but he didn't get close to him. Instead, he kept moving away from him.
"Looks like he wants to lure us over.”
"Hmm, you're really gentlemanly. Do you want us to choose the battlefield?" Alice's voice was still as calm as ever. This calmness was proof that she trusted Saber completely. Saber, on the other hand, was once again silently glad that he had met a good master.
……
"Hey, brother, are we going home now?”Like a fairy in the dark night, Navenmore leaped between the tall city walls. Sakura was held in his arms in a comfortable position, and the wide black windbreaker covered her well, preventing her from getting a whiff of the cold wind.
"It's too early to go home now. My little Master, are you interested in watching a wonderful performance? A battle between magicians." Holding Sakura in his arms, the smile on Navenmoor's face was still flawless.
"That was Master and her Servant, right? I felt the same aura as my brother from that sister in black.”After a while, Sakura's timid voice rang out.
"Sakura, the Holy Grail War has begun. Are you willing to participate?”
"I'm willing!" The small one answered with unusual determination.
"Even if you have to hurt or even kill others because of this?”The corners of Navenmore's mouth curled up slightly. It was a smile that belonged to a demon. It bewitched pure girls into depravity and tainted them with bloody sins. This had always been a demon's favorite thing to do.
"I'm willing, brother. As long as it's for you, Sakura is willing to do anything.”Sakura had a pure smile on her face as she hugged Navenmoor's warm embrace tightly.
Big brother…Sakura will definitely help you, help you obtain victory in the Holy Grail War, because big brother has bestowed Sakura with a new life…whether you are a demon or an angel…
"Ah, war…that sounds scary.”Luo Tianyi's voice rang out beside her. The little girl who had been forced to maintain her spirit form was very dissatisfied. However, thanks to Navenmoor's powerful shielding, she was not discovered at all.
"Don't worry, you don't have to fight. Just lead the way. If you're afraid, you can go back first.”Navenmore rolled his eyes.
"Of course not. Master looks down on people. Tianyi is very strong.”With a flash of light, a cute gray-haired girl appeared out of thin air. She clenched her small fists and said angrily.
Navenmoor did not say much. He just smiled and rubbed the girl's head. The girl seemed to be very dissatisfied with this action, which was similar to comforting a pet. She struggled, but of course, she could not escape in the end.
Winter Wood City, Night, Harbor.
"Finally. I waited for a long time, but no one dared to come here…The only one who responded to me was you.”
From the hilt to the blade, the two spears were wrapped in a kind of cloth that looked like a spell, making it impossible to see their true appearance. It was probably a countermeasure to hide the true name of the Treasured Artifact.
There was no doubt that the man who had boldly appeared in front of Saber and Alisfel was the Servant, Lancer, who had released his aura to attract them.
Lancer's heroic spirit praised in a low but clear voice. He did not put on a fighting stance. Instead, he asked Saber calmly.
"Quite a cold fighting spirit…I think you're Saber, am I right?”
"That's right. You must be Lancer."
"Exactly…Ha, I didn't expect to be able to introduce myself to my opponent so casually before a life-and-death battle. However, it's not up to us." Saber agreed, and her cold expression softened a little.
"There's no other way. This isn't a battle for our honor. You should be offering the gun in your hand to your master, right?"
"Ha…that's right." He didn't look like someone who was about to risk his life in battle. Instead, he smiled bitterly.
Behind Saber, Alisfel raised her eyebrows slightly.
"…Charm magic? It was too rude to a married woman, Spearman.”
Lancer could only shrug his shoulders with a bitter smile.
"I'm sorry, I've been cursed since I was born. However, there was nothing he could do about it. If you want to hate me, hate my birth, or hate you for being women.”
Saber snorted, looking down on Lancer. "Don't tell me you're expecting me to show mercy because of your face, Lancer.”
"If that's the case, then it's too boring. I see. Saber's anti-magic ability is really extraordinary…Alright, if I have to kill a weak woman because of this, then I'll lose face. It seemed that I had made the right decision to wait here for someone with the guts to come knocking on my door.”
"Then…let's begin."
Lancer lifted the long gun on his shoulder and got into a fighting stance. His left hand also slowly lifted the short spear. The two guns were spread out and waved like wings. This was a battle stance that he had never seen before.
Saber released his surging battle energy. The burst of mana stirred up a whirlwind in the air, which wrapped around the girl's petite body. In an instant, her entire body was wrapped in silver armor, and the mana turned into armor and gauntlets. And this was the true face of the Knight King's heroic spirit.
" Saber..." Alisfell swallowed nervously and called out her name. She was attracted by the strong fighting energy emitted by the two of them and had already sensed it. There was no room for her to interfere in this battle. However, she didn't want to just be a bystander. At the very least, she was Saber's Master's agent.
"…Be careful. "Although I can use some healing spells, the rest…" Saber nodded before she could finish.
"Please leave Lancer to me. However, I was a little worried about why the other party's Master didn't appear.”
On a container by the port, Navenmore was holding Sakura in one hand and Luo Tianyi in the other. He was coldly observing the battle below, but the two people fighting below did not notice him at such a close distance.
" Brother, is this the battle between heroic spirits…" Sakura said fearfully as she watched the two people fighting below. It was hard to imagine that they could destroy an entire street with just cold weapons.
"Yes, Master, don't be afraid. Your brother is stronger than them.”Navenmore chuckled, seemingly sensing the worry in the little girl in his arms, and could not help but comfort her.
"Yes, big brother is the strongest." The little girl said coquettishly as she snuggled in her brother's embrace and enjoyed her own happiness.
Saber and Lancer, two of the Three Knights? Let me have a good look at your strength. If it's only this little, I'll be disappointed...
