Infinite Journey Starting from the Fox

"Then I can say yes first, I can let you go, but we have to have a truce first, and we can't shoot me anymore."

"En!" Arturia continued to nod vigorously.

In fact, after the whole night of scissors' foot locking, Lin Ling was almost at her limit, because Artoria was also struggling constantly.

Then Lin Ling looked at Irisviel who was held back by Marisa's magic cannon. She expected to have a hostage in hand. Even if she let go of Artoria, she should not be able to shoot herself again.

So Lin Ling let go of Artoria.

"Huh~" After being liberated, Arturia quickly rolled and hid aside, then supported herself with a sword, knelt on one knee and breathed in fresh air. After being locked up for a whole night, even with the blood of the red dragon, she It's also a little too much.

After recovering a little, she raised her head, staring at Lin Ling with mixed feelings in her heart.

Lin Ling was also rubbing her numb leg muscles at this time. Seeing Arturia staring at her, she thought she wanted to continue fighting again, so she said, "Look what I'm doing, we But we agreed to a temporary truce, otherwise your master in Marisa's hand would be..."

"Really, I promised to return your master today, but if you still don't believe it, you have to find it."

Then Marisa planned to let go of Irisviel immediately, but Lin Ling gave her a few eyes to stop her movement.

"Then, can you return Irisviel to me? I swear to you on the honor of a knight."

Lin Ling: "However, this is a matter related to the lives of Marisa and me. I can't pin all of this on your verbal promise."

"Sure enough, are you still hating me..." Arturia knew that Lin Ling was imitating what she had said to her once, and then Artoria's expression became lonely, but she immediately The smile resumed, "Don't worry! After I get the Holy Grail, I will rewrite the history of all this! Give you a life without pain..."

Lin Ling: "Rewrite history? Is this why you want to grab the Holy Grail..."

"Saber? Do you know Caster?" Irisviel seemed a little strange to hear the conversation between the two.

"To be honest, Irisviel, this caster was once my princess..."

"Oh, so that's the case. Wait, what did you just say!" Irisviel was taken aback. She didn't expect that this lovely Miss King Arthur actually had a princess, but it's right to think about it, after all, there is a princess in any version of the legend of King Arthur. existing.

"Hey! You two really have an affair!" Marisa smiled, and immediately thought of a good idea, "When I get back to Gensokyo, I must tell Reimu about it, no, I'd better tell Wenwen .”

"No, Artoria, you've said it completely! It's a pretend couple, it's not real!" After Lin Ling finished talking about Artoria, she turned to Marisa and said, "And Marisa You must not talk nonsense to me, especially not to Wenwen! That guy is eager to find out about my big news! He will definitely write a big story with embellishments!"

"Indeed, as Miss Lin Ling said, we are just a pretend couple..." Artoria then told the story between herself and Lin Lai.

"So that's the case?" Marisa said regretfully after Arturia roughly told the story between her and Lin Ling, "It turned out to be a fake marriage."

Then Marisa remembered something again, and her expression suddenly became funny: "Then, although you are pretending to be husband and wife, you must eat and sleep together every day, right? Didn't something special happen?"

"Something special?..." When Marisa said this, Arturia remembered the time when she was possessed by Lin Ling, and then she blushed and did not continue talking.

not good!Feeling that something was wrong, Lin Ling immediately interjected: "We are just lying together like good sisters and girlfriends, nothing happened! Besides, we are fighting now! The Holy Grail War? Have you forgotten Marisa?" ? Be serious with me, don't keep thinking about what you have and what you don't!"

Chapter 200 Nothing Happened Between Us, Probably~

"Is it really okay for us to let them go like this?" Lin Ling asked Marisa.

After a stalemate between the two parties and weighing the pros and cons, they finally unanimously decided to temporarily truce, so Marisa let Irisviel go, and Artoria left with the weak Irisviel up.

"Otherwise? Shall we continue to fight?" Marisa replied to Lin Ling while continuing to bury her head in tinkering with magic, magic and other things. There are traces of the command spell, so she is not the master of Saber at all, even if what happens to her, I still have to fight that Saber. Right now I have only completed one magic circuit, and the magic power I can use is limited. So if your system lacking demons really fights her, I'm afraid you won't be an opponent."

Lin Ling: "That's true."

Lin Ling: I just don’t know if Artoria will really think that the summoning contract between us has been completely lifted after defrauding Artoria this time... I hope she will completely give up the idea of ​​using the contract to control me in the future Bar.

"Well, what's more important is that I finally know the magic principle of this world now, so as long as I recover my strength, judging by the level of those people at present, it's nothing to worry about~" Marisa patted her chest, Said very confidently, "So you don't have to worry about your old friend threatening us."

"Don't talk nonsense to me! What an old friend! The relationship between us is at most the level of Patchouli and the little devil! But nothing happened... um... probably, cough cough, and in addition ~" Lin Ling changed the subject, "Servants also have the ultimate treasure that can only be used by liberating their real names. It should be very strong. For example, King Arthur, her sword of vowed victory is quite powerful. I have seen it before. I have been there before, and it can emit a powerful golden shock wave, which is probably no less powerful than your magic cannon by visual inspection."

Marisa: "Can it be comparable to our magic cannon? Is it so powerful? Well~ Let's talk about this when we encounter it. In short, let's not get involved in the affairs of other servants for the time being, and complete a few more magic circuits first. talk later."

Lin Ling: "Then you have to speed up, the Holy Grail War seems to last only about half a month."

Marisa: "Don't panic, we are a genius daze!"

……

On the other side, Artoria met another caster on the way when she was taking Irisviel back to the stronghold.

It was a lunatic with protruding eyes like a patient with hyperthyroidism, who was a little crazy, and kept talking nonsense.

And he seemed to recognize Saber as another acquaintance of his during his lifetime, that legendary figure in French history——Saint Joan of Arc.

Even after Artoria denied that she was Joan of Arc many times and told her true identity, he still stubbornly concluded that Artoria was Joan of Arc, but lost her memory due to unknown reasons.

"Since you have closed your mind so much, then I will prepare stimulation therapy and come back to you. I will definitely liberate your soul from the curse of God!"

In the end, the crazy male caster left after leaving this inexplicable sentence that seemed to be a declaration of war.

"It's really tiring to talk to people who can't communicate."

After the caster who claimed to be the notorious blue beard Gilles de Rais in French history left, Irisviel complained helplessly.

Artoria also said in a bad tone: "Next time I will attack him with a sword before he speaks, that guy makes me feel sick."

"Yeah, think about it this way, it's better to deal with the lovely female caster before." Irisviel suddenly smirked, "By the way, you were originally a couple, can we try to join forces?"

"I'm afraid not...Irisviel, I used to use her as an ordinary summoned beast most of the time, until I found that she seemed to be no different from ordinary humans and possessed real emotions. The relationship between us is irretrievable, and a deep estrangement has already formed, so she probably only has resentment towards me in her heart... It is impossible to form an alliance. This time they let you go so easily, which surprised me It's..."

Irisviel: "Is that so, so you want to obtain the Holy Grail to change history, is this also the reason?"

Arturia: "Yes... and no, to be precise, this is only one of the reasons. If I could start from the beginning, I, a person who doesn't understand people's hearts, shouldn't be a king at all... All tragedies like that won't happen. It happened..."

"Is this really good..." Irisviel really wanted to say this sentence, but she didn't say it in the end, because she didn't know what to do. Perhaps the tragedy of wanting to change all this is really true. I can only hope for the almighty Holy Grail.

"However, it's a fluke for me that the caster left like this. My left hand was sealed and I just fought another caster all night. It's too dangerous to fight other enemies." Artoria looked Looking at his left hand, he said to Irisviel beside him, "Go back, Irisviel."

"En." Irisviel nodded, and then left with Saber.

"I never thought there would be unexpected gains from following Saber."

And just after Artoria and Irisviel left, two black figures suspected to be assassins but very different from the original assassins appeared on a tree not far away.

"We actually discovered the whereabouts of the two casters."

"Then, of course we have to follow."

Then one of them chased after the caster.

……

another day has passed

"It can't be repaired." Contrary to what Marisa thought, she actually completed the manufacture of two more magic circuits in a whole day, "Why is it so slow, it won't work like this."

In fact, it’s just that Marisa’s expectations were too high. You must know that the magic circuits of other magicians are either innate or passed down by family members. It’s an unheard of miracle like hers to create two out of thin air. , but for the Holy Grail War, which only lasted more than ten days, this speed may not be enough.

"Huh? It seems that our great genius Marisa has also encountered difficulties." After hearing Marisa's complaint, Lin Ling also woke up from light meditation.

"Yeah, that person named Irisviel seems to have a different body structure from normal humans. The knowledge I have analyzed based on the magic circuits in her body has become more and more difficult to help me create magic circuits in my body. In this case..." Marisa took out a broom, put on a magic hat, and took out a large sack from somewhere and carried it on her shoulder, "Then I have to go to those magician families I went for a walk."

Seeing that Marisa seemed to be 'fully armed', Lin Ling complained: "Oh? Are you planning to copy your old business?"

Chapter 201 The Thief Marisa

"Goo~"

At this moment, Marisa's and Lin Ling's stomachs made gurgling sounds at the same time.

"Counting it all together, we've been so busy, it seems like we haven't eaten for a whole day and two nights." Marisa rubbed her stomach, feeling empty inside.

Although Lin Ling felt a little hungry at this time, she was still a little worried: "But I have another question, do you still have money?"

"It wasn't there, but I took some from that Irisviel before." Marisa took out a small women's purse and said.

Lin Ling: "As expected of you, the big thief Marisa, who even steals the enemy's money."

"It's just borrowing a little, and it's not that we don't want to pay it back. When we grab the Holy Grail, there will be endless money. What's more, their family is a magic family that has been passed down for a long time. Ordinary people may have too much money to spend. Let's spend some money for them, and maybe they'll have to thank us." Marisa continued with her cheeky theories.

Lin Ling thought for a while, and seemed to be saying the same thing: "So, let's go eat first?"

Marisa: "Okay, speaking of it, I saw a sukiyaki restaurant in this city before that seemed pretty good, but I could smell its strong aroma just passing by from a distance."

Lin Ling: "Sukiyaki pot? What is that? I haven't eaten it before."

Marisa: "It's a kind of hot pot unique to Neon. Roughly speaking, it's probably a Japanese-style beef hot pot with a sweet soy sauce base dipped in raw eggs."

"Raw eggs? Can that be eaten?" Lin Ling, who had hardly eaten raw food, was somewhat conflicted.

Marisa: "It's okay, just try it and you'll know."

"It's not good, it looks like the fishy smell is strong..."

"Hmph~ It's obviously a fox, but it's pickier than a human being like me! Do you want to eat or not? If you don't eat, you will be hungry. Anyway, you monsters are in good health and can withstand hunger."

Then Lin Ling, who was still struggling, was forcibly dragged away by the starving Marisa.

……

"Now the Holy Grail War is facing a major crisis!"

Kotomine Ri, the supervisor of the Holy Grail War, was talking loudly to himself in the empty church.

He knew that although the church was a neutral area in name, all forces must have their eyeliners here.

"It has been confirmed that the master of No. [-] caster is the culprit of the serial kidnapping and murder case that recently caused the riots in Fuyuki City. Therefore, I am now using the supervisory authority of the extraordinary period to temporarily modify the rules. All masters will immediately suspend their mutual relations. I will do my best to annihilate the No. [-] caster! And, for those who successfully annihilate the caster and its master, as a special reward, I will give them an additional Command Spell."

Speaking of this, Yan Fengli was rolling up the sleeve of his right hand, revealing a hand full of red stripes.

"This is the leftover command spell that the masters failed to use for various reasons in the past several Holy Grail Wars. For everyone, this should be of incomparable value. And, after the caster and its master were killed From that moment on, the Holy Grail War will also continue. Then those who have problems, please raise objections, of course, only those who can speak, not familiars."

As soon as the priest finished speaking, the sounds of several birds and beasts scattered outside the house immediately, presumably it was the familiars passing this information back to their masters.

Among them was Emiya Kiritsugu, who used modern technology such as magic and video cameras, and was almost the first to learn what the supervisor Kotomine Risei said.

However, before they took the initiative to find the caster who seemed to have mental problems and kept killing innocent people indiscriminately, they felt that someone had broken into their stronghold.

Moreover, judging from the feedback from the magic enchantment, there are far more than one or two people.

"Could it be a large-scale invasion?" Irisviel felt something was wrong, and immediately used a magic crystal ball to observe the situation, but surprisingly, what she saw in the crystal ball was a group of harmless children !

However, it was the wanted crazy caster who led the group of children away.

"Irisviel, the enemy is leading us there!" Artoria immediately guessed what the crazy caster meant.

Irisviel: "This is... a hostage, right?"

"Only I can personally rescue them." Artoria suggested.

At this time, Caster, who was leading the children towards this direction, suddenly smiled at the crystal ball.

"Impossible? He actually sees through clairvoyance." Irisviel was very surprised. She still underestimated the gap between magicians in ancient legends and modern magicians. Transforming people, but it's still not worth mentioning in front of that seemingly crazy caster.

"According to the agreement last night, I, Gilles de Rais, come to visit." The male caster also performed a noble etiquette towards the perspective of the crystal ball, "I hope to meet my beautiful Joan of Arc, You can pass it on slowly, but I have made very sufficient preparations, and I planned to wait patiently."

Then the male caster snapped his fingers, and the dull-eyed children around him immediately regained their sanity, and when they found themselves suddenly appearing in the woods at night, they immediately panicked.

"Come on, kids, the hide-and-seek has begun~ The rules are simple, just don't get caught by me." Gilles de Rais held a child's head, and then squeezed it hard...

"Irisviel!" After seeing this scene, Artoria urged anxiously.

At this moment, Irisviel glanced at Emiya Kiritsugu, and then got his acquiescence, then immediately turned back and said to Artoria: "Saber! Solve the caster!"

With the master's permission, Arturia immediately charged at the lunatic caster with a sword full of anger.

But it didn't take long for Arturia to fall into a hard fight.

I don't know what kind of ability that male caster has. The octopus-like monsters he summons seem to be endless. No matter how many octopus-like monsters Altria kills with one sword, they are still like a tide. coming.

"I've already said, I'll come back with proper preparations!" Seeing that Arturia seemed to be in trouble, Caster held a strange magic book with a happy expression on his face.

"Irisviel, are there any signs of other masters invading the forest?" Emiya Kiritsugu asked Irisviel who was watching the battle with a crystal ball in the combat conference room.

Irisviel: "It doesn't seem to be..."

While Kiritsugu was asking Alice Feiruo, he himself was checking the pictures of various cameras with the computer, and suddenly, he seemed to notice something was wrong.

"Maiya! Take Irisviel to escape from the castle, remember to run to the opposite side of Saber!" Kiritsugu, who sensed something was wrong, immediately ordered to his assistant.

……

"Little fox, so our first stop is to go to the Einzbern family!"

After eating and drinking, Marisa suggested.

Lin Ling: "Why?"

"Because, first of all, the Einzbern family specializes in alchemy and is not good at fighting. It should be easier to sneak in, and their servants were injured. Then I also learned some magic from their family. It’s going to be a little faster here.”

"Okay." After hearing Marisa's explanation, Lin Ling agreed.
