Dragon of the Root

Chapter 68: Two Servant



Mordred protected Shishigō Kairi, holding the sword towards Wu Ming with both hands.

Wu Ming smiled and looked at the two.

The two sides were on the verge of confrontation.

Then Wu Ming spoke.

"Okay, okay, kidding. After all, the Magus behind you is not only your Master, but also mine."

Speaking of this, Shishigō Kairi realized that the other party had also called him Master.

Looking at his hands, Shishigō Kairi said in surprise.

"Is that true!? I actually have six Command Spells?!"

Wu Ming and Mordred both stared at Shishigō Kairi hand.

On Shishigō Kairi left and right hands were red patterns resembling congestion, each pattern consisting of three lines, and the thickness and shape of each line was different, namely Command Spells.

Usually there are only three Command Spells, and having Command Spells means Shishigō Kairi has two Servants.

"Well~ think of me as the reincarnated knight Vero, that's all, please give me your advice, Master."

"And, you can feel the connection between us, right, Mordred."

"Hmph." Mordred didn't say anything, but she snorted uncomfortably.

After removing the sword and armor which was extremely uncomfortable, she turned around and said to Shishigō Kairi.

"My real name is Mordred, please advise, Master."

Then Wu Ming also officially reported his name.

"My real name is Soderlake, so please give me more advice, Master."

"Ah…ah, please advise, my name is Shishigō Kairi." Shishigō Kairi said helplessly.

"Don't talk about the question of you summoning two Servant. You actually summoned the Knights of the Round Table in a place like this. Are you a Necromancer?" said Mordred with a look of disdain with folded arms.

"Ah, yes, my childhood was accompanied by corpses. By the way, King Arthur son, Mordred, turned out to be a girl..."

"Master, you better not say that word, or else Mordred won't know what to do." Wu Ming interrupted Shishigō Kairi.

Seeing Mordred who was staring at him coldly, Shishigō Kairi gulped.

"I… I understand."

"So, what is your wish?" Shishigō Kairi first looked at Mordred.

"Of course it's difficult to revoke Caliburn, but I think with my qualifications, I will definitely revoke it." Mordred said with a satisfied look.

"How is that possible~" Wu Ming inadvertently laughed to the side.

"What are you talking about! Vero! Believe it or not, I killed you!" After that, Mordred was about to condense his sword towards Wu Ming.

"King business is set by default, Mordred, not that you can wield Caliburn with the qualifications of a king."

But Shishigō Kairi on the side heard quite an interesting topic.

"Why did you say that?"

"You also know that I was a knight in the time of King Uther Pendragon. As the strongest knight back then, King Uther Pendragon naturally told me about the next generation of kings."

Wu Ming glanced at Shishigō Kairi, then Mordred, and continued.

"To be precise, even if I go to unsheath Caliburn, I can pull it out. The reason why I couldn't pull it out was because Merlin installed Magecraft, so anyone wielding Caliburn at the time couldn't pull it out. Only Arthur can get it out."

Hearing this, Shishigō Kairi looked confused.

"What why!?" Mordred said she was very angry.

"Because the people need Arthur, and only Arthur can lead the people. Even me, I can't be like Arthur."

"But to wield Caliburn, the qualification of a king is the most important point. At that time, apart from me and Arthur in Camelot, no one really had the qualifications of a king anymore."

"However, if you win the Holy Grail, you can give it a try, Mordred, I must tell you that you are no worse than Arthur, and that you were not accepted by Arthur simply because she knows you cannot bear the fate of Britain."

These words silenced Mordred.

"So you Vero who is King Arthur first knight, and you who are Heaven General Soderlake of France Hundred Years War, Soderlake, what do you want?" Shishigō Kairi asked.

Wu Ming smiled.

"I saw the Holy Grail War this time because it was to find a Servant, so actually, I have no desire."

"Hah?" Shishigō Kairi shouted in surprise.

After all, in Shishigō Kairi eyes, whether it was Knight Vero or Heaven General Soderlake, both were tragic figures.

The former turned into a evil dragon due to the black Magus curse and was tragically sealed.

The latter was rumored to be a evil dragon due to the slander of the British royal family, and was burned to death with Jeanne d'Arc.

Therefore, from Shishigō Kairi point of view, Wu Ming saying that there was no wish was a bit unrealistic.

"Well~ after all, I'm not dead yet, so I have no desire to use the Holy Grail to make it happen."

"What?!" Shishigō Kairi looked at Wu Ming in surprise.

This time even Mordred looked at Wu Ming with a surprised expression.

After all, he became a Heroic Spirit without dying, which was very strange.

"Well, after all, I'm not human, so I didn't die."

"I will give you a chance to tell this story in the future. Shouldn't we go and meet the other Crimson Faction Masters first?"

"Yes, the superintendent of the temple church and the Master of the red faction sent me a message asking me to go to the church somewhere to find him."

"Then let's go, Master."

With this, in Mordred groan, under the helpless expression of Shishigō Kairi, the three of them started moving towards the designated place.

....

A small church on a mountain in Sighişoara, Romania.

Shishigō Kairi walked alone.

Wu Ming and Mordred transformed into spirit forms and followed behind Shishigō Kairi.

After entering the church, a white-haired young priest caught the eye.

"This is the agreed place, right? Did you call me here. "Even though it's a question, it's a statement.

The priest heard someone enter and turned his head.

"Nice to meet you, I am Shirou Kotomine."

White hair, dark skin, black priest costume, and a cross ornament hung from his chest.

This is a person who can give people a reassuring feeling no matter if it is voice or personality.

"I am Shishigō Kairi. I will eliminate my self-identification."

"Well, then the Servants around you… are a bit unusual."

(Did he find Soderlake?)

Shishigō Kairi thought.

Wu Ming tells Shishigō Kairi that he only follows Mordred in the world, and because of his own skills, he doesn't need much magic power from Shishigō Kairi, but only maintains the contract. After all, without a contract, a Servant cannot live.

"The servant I summoned here is a bit special. For some reason I can't point it out, sorry for being rude."

"Of course it doesn't matter, this is also your privacy."

Mordred who sensed something was wrong, raised the spirit body, revealing his body in full armor.

Mordred relayed a message to Shishigō Kairi through the contract.

(There is an unpleasant smell, let me do this for now.)

Shishigō Kairi glanced at Mordred and said nothing.

Wu Ming also appeared. White full body armor, a helmet similar to a dragon head, and a decorative robe, gave people a very reliable feeling.

Wu Ming and Mordred stood beside Shishigō Kairi.

"Then I'll show you too," said Shirou Kotomine.

An unbelievably sinister looking woman in black now appeared behind Shirou Kotomine.

This sinister-looking woman was also a Servant.

"My class is Assassin, and my real name is Semiramis."

Wu Ming felt like he saw Morgan le Fay.

Immediately, Shirou Kotomine and Shirou Kotomine sat on the church chairs and started a short conversation.

After that, Shishigō Kairi said that he would act alone.

"So are you not going to act with other masters? Aren't you used to group fights?" Shirou Kotomine asked.

"Ah, that's right, and I also have sufficient combat power on my side, so I'm not ready to act with you yet." Shishigō Kairi said calmly.

With that said, Shishigō Kairi got up and walked towards the door.

"I wish you success in holding on, Shishigō Kairi."

Shishigō Kairi went outside.

"Also good luck."

*Boom!*

The door is closed.
