The Troubles of the Holy Maiden [Comprehensive]

Chapter 242 The Black Swordsman

Seeing that Roman was pitifully beaten again, Fran could only interject: "Okay, let's get down to business."

"Caster, as you can see, I am the master who belongs to an organization called Chaldea. I have returned from the future to investigate the abnormality of this city in order to save the precarious future of mankind. Caster, I know you are not unreasonable." Heroic Spirit, we need your help."

Seeing Fran's serious expression, the blue-haired caster spread his hands helplessly and said, "Oh, I just can't refuse the beauty's request."

He put away his foolish expression and said, "What do you want to know? Ask, but I don't know much."

Fran asked: "What happened in this Holy Grail War? Why did the city become like this? Why were those servants polluted? How many servants are still alive now?"

"Wait, wait, you have too many questions, let me answer them one by one." The blue-haired caster recalled a bit, and then began to say:

"At the beginning of the Holy Grail War, everything was normal..."

"...But I don't know what happened. The city was engulfed by fire overnight, and it became the purgatory it is now. Then, all humans disappeared, leaving only heroic spirits, and monsters that continued to emerge .”

"Just when this mutation happened and everyone was puzzled, Saber suddenly lost her nerve and started the Holy Grail War again, and successively defeated Archer, Lancer, Rider, Berserker and Assassin."

"All the servants defeated by Saber will be polluted by strange forces like those two guys just now. Together with those monsters emerging from the ground, they will wander around the city like ghosts, as if they are looking for something."

"Of course, they are also looking for me. After all, I am the only surviving follower. If you don't defeat me, the Holy Grail War will not end."

After hearing this, Fran thought about it: "So, the key point is that Saber, do you know who he is?"

"This..." The blue-haired caster's expression was a little weird: "I really guessed her real name, after all, I have fought her before, and her treasure is too obvious, anyone who has been hit by that treasure will be shocked." I can guess her real body through the Noble Phantasm."

"The powerful Noble Phantasm that defeated the other servants is the famous holy sword—the sword of the vowed victory."

Fran was surprised when she heard this: "What? You said Saber is Artoria?!"

"Do you call her Artoria?" The blue-haired caster touched his chin: "It is indeed more suitable for a beautiful lady than the name Arthur."

"Ma'am?" Everyone except Fran asked back in surprise.

The blue-haired caster spread his hands and said, "Well, I was also quite surprised at the time. Who would have thought that the red dragon of Britain, King Arthur, the king of knights, would be a petite girl? Although she is too strong, there is something hidden in such a petite body. Huge power, if you deal with it a little carelessly, it may be cut into two pieces."

Matthew said with emotion: "Is King Arthur actually a girl? It's too unexpected."

Doctor Roman in the light curtain answered, "Maybe it's a woman disguised as a man, that's why it was rumored to be a man. I think it must be a bad idea of ​​a court magician."

Merlin's voice came from the screen: "Hey, that matter is Artoria's own wish, and has nothing to do with me. Do you think I really want to create a rival for myself?"

Then Sebastian's voice came from the screen again: "Then who knows? Anyway, your hobbies have always been bad, maybe you want to watch lilies bloom or something, and shoot yourself in the foot with a stone."

Merlin's voice sounded again: "It's not as good as your bad taste. Solomon was very cute when he was a child, right? Isn't he white-haired and brown-skinned very exotic? Is stealing someone from God just to make you happy? It's a pity that my subordinates I paid for it all, hahahaha, is the 72 Demon God your dowry?"

There was a sound of ping-ping-pong-pong from the other end of the communication.

"Wait...wait a minute." Roman's expression became a little ugly: "That... Lixiang, cut off the communication first, I will contact you later."

After speaking, the light curtain disappeared with a whirl.

Blue-haired caster: "Uh...what's the situation over there? Internal strife?"

Matthew kept showing a surprised face: "What I'm more concerned about is that King Solomon turned out to be white-haired and brown-skinned? What a surprise, I thought it would be grandpa with a black beard."

Fran covered her face speechlessly, and asked after a while, "Well, caster, do you know where Saber is?"

"Oh, the Great Holy Grail should be there, and the other servants who were polluted should be there too." Caster replied.

Fran sighed: "Let's go, let's go find the Great Holy Grail, the singularity is probably there."

Seeing Fran who turned to leave, Caster asked quickly: "Wait, do you know which direction to go?"

Flan paused for a moment before saying, "Yes, I'm quite familiar with it. Caster, do you want to go together?"

"Of course, this matter is also related to me. I also want to end this holy grail war as soon as possible. Well, then I will help you with difficulty. Please give me more advice, my temporary master." Blue-haired caster Diao Erlang said bluntly.

"Well, thank you very much, then let's go and try to solve it as soon as possible."

------------

A group of people walked to a huge underground cave, and Mash looked at the seemingly natural cave in surprise, and asked, "Is the Great Holy Grail here? Really, this looks like a natural cave."

Fran's expression became a little more serious, and she explained: "This is a huge underground workshop built by a magician, and it is also the center of Fuyuki City's spiritual veins. The core of the Great Holy Grail is inside. After entering the cave, everyone must be careful. It is very likely that we will have an encounter with other followers."

"Yes, senior." Matthew held the shield and looked around cautiously.

"Sorry, please leave here." Suddenly, a young man with white hair and brown skin appeared in everyone's sight.

"Wow, this color scheme, could it be King Solomon?" Matthew asked in surprise.

The blue-haired caster snorted lightly: "What Solomon? He's Archer. Archer, are you starting to be Saber's watchdog?"

The white-haired young man didn't even frown, but said coldly: "It's just an order to evict boring visitors. Speaking of guard dogs, isn't it you? Kuran's bulldog."

"You bastard!"

Fran glanced at Caster and said, "It seems that your real name has been revealed, Son of Light in Ireland."

"Oh, so you are Cu Chulainn, no wonder you claim to be more suitable for the rank of lancer." Matthew also suddenly realized.

"Hmph, I don't know the so-called archers, let's settle it here!" Caster raised the staff in his hand, as if he wanted to use the staff as a gun.

Archer on the opposite side snorted coldly: "No need, you go in."

"Eh? What? Conspiracy?!" Matthew clenched her shield tightly, with a serious look on her face.

Archer said indifferently: "Since it's that guy's family member coming, there's no need for me to block it." After speaking, he turned into a spirit and disappeared.

"What... what family?"

"Let's go." Fran walked into the cave first.

In the deepest part of the cave, a black figure stood with his back facing everyone and held a sword. Powerful magic power emanated from her body, making that petite body as tall as a demon god.

"Is that King Arthur? What a powerful magic power!" Matthew gripped the shield tightly and became nervous.

"You're finally here..." A cold and solemn voice came from the direction of the figure.

"What?! You guy can talk? Then you were kidding me by not saying a word before?" Caster immediately became irritable.

King Arthur ignored the irritable caster, but turned around and said quietly:

"My beloved wife, you are finally here."

"Love... my wife?!"

Ignoring everyone's stunned reactions, Fran walked out from behind Mash's shield in the direction where King Arthur was staring deeply, and said softly:

"Al, long time no see."

"Senior...senior?" Matthew was so surprised that he almost didn't know how to react.

Fran looked deeply at the girl in front of her. She was no longer what she remembered. The silver-white armor and blue skirt had turned into pitch black like night, and the sun-like blond hair had faded into a faint moonlight. Even those bright blue eyes It also turned into a light golden color.

"Al, what's wrong with you?"

Arturia in black shook her head lightly: "My words and deeds are under surveillance, and I have worked so hard to see you." She looked at Matthew who was holding a huge shield, and asked softly : "Is that child your current protector? What an interesting treasure, shielder?"

"Wait, are you guys in the same group?!" Caster asked with a frown.

The black swordsman said indifferently: "Ireland's Son of Light, you will understand one day. Grandorder's war around the Holy Grail has just begun."

"Wait a minute, did I miss something? What grandorder?" In the light curtain that suddenly flashed, Roman asked a little out of state.

The black Arturia ignored Roman who suddenly appeared, and just sighed to Fran: "I want to protect you personally, but now I can only do one last thing for you..."

"...Let me test the strength of your protector!"

Artoria looked at Mash again, and said, "Shield, let me see if you have the qualifications to protect my beloved wife!"

Enkidu blinked: "Huh? Am I being ignored?"

"Senior! This..." Matthew couldn't figure out the situation, and couldn't help but look at Fran.

Fran pressed Matthew's shoulder and said softly, "Don't be afraid, spread out your shield and do your best."

Mash said firmly: "Yes! I will protect you! Senior! No, Master!"

The piercing sword light touched the shield, and under tremendous pressure, Mash finally unfolded the treasure.A phantom of a thick magic barrier and part of the city wall emerged above the shield.

Arturia stopped in time, watching the exhausted Matthew half kneeling on the ground panting.

"Okay, I recognize your aptitude." The girl's inorganic golden pupils looked at Fran again, and said, "Although I won't have the memory of this time when we meet next time, before leaving, I can Shall I hug you?"

"Al..." Fran couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, and the sour feeling seemed to pour into her throat in an instant.

"Be careful, don't go there!"

Fran turned a deaf ear, just stepped forward, and gently hugged the girl in the black dress.The girl rested her side face on Fran's shoulder, and it gradually turned into dots of light all over the sky.

"No, what's going on here? Wait, you're forced to return at such a time!" The blue-haired caster looked confused.

"Well, forget it, little girl, although I don't know what your identity is. But compared to a girl, a man|wife might be better..."

"Haha, if you want to summon me as the master, remember to use the lancer class!"

Fran nodded to him and said, "Thank you this time, Cu Chulainn."

After King Arthur, the blue-haired caster also turned into golden light.

When the servants disappeared one after another, only a few people and a crystal dropped from the black Artoria remained in the empty underground cavity.

Roman in the light curtain couldn't wait to ask: "Lixiang, what's going on? How did you know Saber? She also said you were her beloved wife... and what grandorder, what the hell is going on? What's wrong?!"

"Yes, senior, what is it..." Matthew hesitated to speak.

"It's better for me to tell you what's going on." A somewhat sinister male voice suddenly sounded.

"Professor Rafe?!"
