To be king and magician

"But that's too dangerous, please understand, Master. Besides, why do you have to go there? What exactly are you trying to confirm?"

Just to confirm one thing, she wanted to use a command spell to take her back. Artoria didn't understand what made Xia Chuanhu so persistent.

"That's...uh——!"

The sudden convulsions and severe pain in his heart made Xia Chuanhu cry out, and then the severe pain that hit him one after another continued to impact his spirit, shattering him little by little. waking consciousness.

"Master? Please cheer up! Master!"

"Master—!"

Arturia called herself anxiously and nervously—this was the last scene Xia Chuanhu saw before losing consciousness.

35. The Almighty Jill A Dream!

within the realm of consciousness.

Looking at Xia Chuanhu outside through Mei Li's prison, Shatiao Aige sighed helplessly, stretched out his hand from the railing, grabbed Xia Chuanhu's hand and dragged him in front of her.

"It's really hard, vixen."

Perhaps it was because of the continuous loss of magic power, and the severe pain in his heart because of it, even when he was unconscious, Xia Chuanhu's brows were still tightly frowned.During the ten years in his body, Sha Tiao Aige has never seen him show such an expression.

This means that he is indeed suffering extremely great pain now.

Gently stroking Xia Chuanhu's brow, Sha Tiao Aige tried to soothe the pain between his brows, this is the only thing she can do now that all her power has been sealed.

Unfortunately, Xia Chuanhu's situation did not improve much.

"Merry...Morgan..."

Holding the railing made of light, Sha Tiao Aige kept exerting force, as if trying to crush the beam of light, and he could feel a little tingling from his nails in his palm.

Whispering the names of those two people, if not for the current situation, Shatiao Aige would definitely have taken over Xia Chuanhu's body and sent the two women to hell.

Just as Xia Chuanhu once said that only he can kill Sha Tiao Ai Ge, it is the same for her.

"Cheer up, vixen, you said it yourself, you will never die before me... I will not allow you to fall into the hands of someone other than me."

"You who were tortured by me ten years ago and didn't completely collapse, you will not lose to this level of torture now, don't say that your iron will has been smoothed out in these ten years, then I Will be very disappointed."

Xia Chuanhu's response to Shatiao Aige's soliloquy was not heard, but she didn't know if her voice had any effect, and the tightly knit eyebrows were obviously loosened a little.

Seeing this change, Shatiao Aige sighed slightly, feeling relieved.

"Wake up quickly, vixen, if you don't wake up, you really won't get anything back after that."

"You will become the same you ten years ago. The one who had nothing, was extremely weak, the original you."

real world.

Looking at Scathach who was checking Xia Chuanhu's body, and Aoko Aozaki who was sitting opposite her, Artoria first bowed her head and said, "Thank you very much for your help, Lancer, and Ms. Aozaki."

"You can just call me Qingzi, Saber, I have a very good relationship with Hu, and you don't have to treat me badly."

Aoko Aozaki laughed.

Not long ago, she was shopping with Skaha on the street to spy on the enemy, and she happened to meet Artoria who came out of the alley with Xia Chuanhu on her back, and after seeing Xia Chuanhu unconscious, Aozaki Aoko Immediately took the two of them to the place where he and Scathach lived.

"Lancer, how is Tiger's condition?"

"I can't say it's good, but I can't say it's bad either. His situation is a bit strange." Scathach frowned and replied, "Master, I remember you told me before that this person is a half-servant, right? Infused with the spirit foundation of that Knight King."

"Well, what's wrong with this?"

"The part of his power that belongs to the servant... is gradually disappearing."

Aoko Aozaki and Artoria were surprised by what Scathach said.

The half-servant part of Xia Chuanhu's body is disappearing?

"What does this mean? Tiger is no longer a half-servant?"

"It's more serious than this." Scathach's face was a little stern, "I found out after the actual inspection that he has actually been in a very strange state, and the whole person has been maintained in a state where life and death are intertwined. Simply put, he was on the brink of death the whole time."

Dying?

Aoko Cangzaki looked at Xia Chuanhu on the bed in disbelief: "Dying...how is this possible? He didn't look like a dying person at all before. He was very energetic every day. Every time I felt It takes several for me to satisfy him."

"Because the part of his half-servant has been maintaining his life." Scathach explained, "King Arthur is the Lord of the British Isles, the incarnation of the red dragon, which has extremely strong vitality, plus the scabbard Wallon, the two together kept him alive and pushed him to the point you speak of."

"But now, the abilities of these two have been weakened to the extreme. They can only barely maintain his life and prevent him from dying completely. And because he is no longer a half-servant and his body has returned to an ordinary person, he also lost The amount of magical power generated outside the specification, the power is already inferior to you, Master, right?"

Words like a bolt from the blue reached the ears of Aoko Aozaki and Artoria.

Has the situation developed to such a serious point?That Xia Chuanhu who was once strong enough to save the world, is now so weak?

Although that is already a strong level for a magus, but...

"It's impossible to fight the King of Uruk with all our strength like in the first night, and even he may die at any time now - it's really a pity, I thought he was a man who could bring me death .”

"Lancer, do you have a way to save the tiger?"

Aozaki Aoko asked.

And Scathach simply shook his head: "No, his situation is too special. It is a miracle that he can continue to live in the realm of life now. If we want to change the status quo, we can only integrate it into his body, which is equal to King Arthur's spirit foundation. , and even things above that."

"In short, let him become a sub-servant again. Of course, there may be a Noble Phantasm in the treasure house of the king of Uruk that can solve the current situation."

Speaking of this, Scathach glanced at Artoria, then smiled and said: "So, what are you two going to do? Do you want Saber to sacrifice yourself? Or do you want to defeat Archer and get a life-saving treasure? "

"Is it worth thinking about?"

Don't even think about it.

Aoko Aozaki stood up directly: "Lancer, let's go, beat that shiny golden Archer to the ground, and let him spit out the treasure that can save Tiger——Saber, can I trouble you to watch Tiger right now... ...."

"No, please let me go." Artoria said sternly, "I am very grateful to you two for helping me and the Master, but I can't let you take risks for us, so I will ask Archer for help." Come to treasures."

"I believe that the two of you will not harm the Master. So during this period, please take care of the Master instead of me."

36. Another Guardian

The time for nightfall came quickly.

Before he knew it, the sky had completely darkened.

It was also in a certain house on the side of Miyama Town in Shindu—after getting Lidel's location through Aozaki Aoko, Arturia came here.

"I didn't expect you to come here alone, Saber."

Sitting on the ornately decorated sofa, Gilgamesh looked at Artoria who appeared in front of him holding a sword: "Where is your Master? I didn't see anyone else this time. Maybe it's because I know I can't defeat him?" Wang, have you adjusted your tactics?"

Xia Chuanhu's absence is not good news for Gilgamesh. Last night's battle made him feel the thrill of fighting a strong enemy and the joy of victory after defeating a strong enemy.

So he was looking forward to tonight, Xia Chuanhu, who was an elf envoy, was defeated, and Xia Chuanhu, who was a holy sword envoy, would be next.

"I didn't come to fight you, Archer."

However, to Gilgamesh's surprise, Arturia showed no hostility: "Of course, if you have the intention to fight, I would be happy to fight, but before that, please let me ask you a question , Archer."

"Oh~~~ Do you want to ask me a question? Yes, I agree. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. There is nothing in the world that I don't know about."

"In your treasury, is there a treasure that can save a dying person?"

"Of course." Gilgamesh replied decisively, "Regardless of ancient and modern times, regardless of things, all treasures exist in this king's treasury. Needless to say, weapons and armor, you can hunt souls from the underworld and make the dead The elixir of resuscitation also exists."

Indeed there is!

Artoria's eyes suddenly lit up, and seeing the change in her face, Gilgamesh couldn't help laughing: "It seems that what you want to know is about the medicine of immortality, Saber. A servant actually Interested in the medicine of immortality... Let me guess, don't you want to get the medicine of immortality from me?"

"If I say what I want, will you give it to me, Archer."

"Hahahahaha! Of course it's impossible!" Gilgamesh laughed and refused, "It's really a naive idea, Saber, even if it is a first-class treasure in this king's treasure house, it is absolutely impossible give to others."

"But if you are willing to submit to this king, then it is not a bad idea to treat it as a reward for your subjects."

"Are you insulting me? Archer!" Arturia immediately glared at Gilgamesh with a sword in her eyes, "You must also know such crazy words, I will never agree!"

"Then you should also know that this king will not give you the elixir just because of your words—but it's really unexpected, Saber, this king thought you came to fight this king, but I didn't expect it to be for you. The elixir is coming. Why are you suddenly interested in the elixir?"

Gilgamesh's question silenced Artoria.

She was a little hesitant about telling Gilgamesh about Xia Chuanhu. After all, he was an enemy. If he revealed the matter here, he would undoubtedly be at a great disadvantage.

Seeing that Artoria didn't speak, Gilgamesh sneered: "It's okay not to say, I can figure it out too—the elf envoy is probably on the verge of death right now?"

"Varied--"

"Why do you need to show such a surprised expression, Saber? Judging from your situation, this is an easy conclusion, right?" Gilgamesh leaned on the sofa in a more comfortable position, "What happened? Who put the elf envoy to death before this king? No, there was no strong magical reaction during the day, so if you think about it, is it plotted?"

"..."

"Hahahahahahahahaha! Is this really the case! He was plotted against! Hahahahaha! How embarrassing and despondent, elf envoy!"

Gilgamesh, who confirmed the situation from Arturia's silence, couldn't help laughing wildly, but the next second he stared at Artoria with cold eyes: "Where is the bastard? How dare you snatch it?" The king's prey?"

"about this......"

Now that most of it has been seen through, Artoria thinks that there is no need to hide it, not to mention that she has come to ask for the elixir, and Gilgamesh will have to know about this situation sooner or later.

And after listening to what Arturia said and various speculations, before Gilgamesh could speak——

"Is what you said true? Saber!"

In the corner of the room, the hidden door was suddenly opened, and Lidal hurried out from inside: "Tiger is dying now... Is this true?"

"Are you... Archer's master?" Artoria glanced at the command spell on the back of Lydel's hand, "I don't need to deceive you, otherwise I wouldn't come here to ask Archer About the elixir."

"Merry, she actually did such a thing..."

Although she knew that Meili was not a good person, Lidal always thought that she would only play tricks on Xia Chuanhu at most, but she did not expect that this time Xia Chuanhu was reduced to the point of near death.

"Archer, can you take out your elixir?"

"Do you want me to save the elves? Reaching out to the enemy is an extremely stupid act, witch." Gilgamesh frowned dissatisfiedly, "That is the obstacle for you to get the Holy Grail, even if you fall in love As for him, if he interferes with you, you have to get rid of him——isn’t a magician just such an existence?”

True, magicians are basically an inhuman bunch -- with very few exceptions.

"What's more, why do you think that elf envoy needs my help?"

"Eh?"
