To be king and magician

After quickly cleaning up the tenth bowl of rice, Arturia got up and trotted away. Xia Chuanhu and Grey were both a little confused.

Then, about a minute or two later——

"Excuse me, Your Excellency Xia Chuan."

"Is this really all right? My king, let's gather here for a meal like this."

"My king said it was invited by the other party, so it should be no problem."

Looking at Gao Wen, Lancelot and Tristan who walked in with Artoria, Xia Chuanhu froze for a moment.

Didn't tell you to come now? !

......

Because three Knights of the Round Table joined in the middle, in the end, the dinner lasted for nearly an hour and a half.

Xia Chuanhu has felt for a long time how painful it is to cook. It is really difficult to feed such a royal stomach as Artoria by himself, let alone himself and Gao who has the same appetite. arts......

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Xia Chuan, it seems that you have been troubled by our arrival."

Putting a cup of tea in front of Xia Chuanhu, Tristan apologized with a smile.

"However, it was a very delicious dinner. Your cooking skills are quite excellent, and you can handle a variety of styles of cooking so skillfully. Have you traveled all over the world to learn cooking skills?"

"Ah, it's not a big deal, it's just that there are many places to go, so I naturally learned a little bit secretly, and I have a lot of stomachs to feed at home, although I don't cook often, but there will be times When it comes to me, everyone's appetite must be satisfied."

Xia Chuanhu took the tea and took a sip.

Listening to his explanation, Gawain and Lancelot who were also sitting at the dining table came over.

"Speaking of this... Although I have heard about it from my king, I don't know much about the specific situation—are there many people in Your Excellency Xia Chuan's family?"

"Well, besides me, Grey, and Lia, there are also Mei Li, Zouji, Ling Yi, Tohsaka, Tsuru, Lidel who comes here to eat from time to time, and Aoko who comes back from time to time... probably That's all."

The three Knights of the Round Table looked at each other, and then their faces froze, and they suddenly showed an extremely solemn attitude.

With his hands on his chin, as if discussing some important issue, Lancelot asked in a deep voice, "Excuse me, are all the ones you mentioned are women?"

"Hmm. Any questions?"

(According to what my king said, she used to live in an apartment named Camelot... In an apartment, all women except His Excellency Xia Chuan...)

Tristan slightly opened his eyes: "Your Excellency Xia Chuan seems to have a pretty good relationship with women?"

Xia Chuanhu smiled bitterly: "It's not so good, it's better to say that it became like this unconsciously. Everywhere I go, I always have contact with some women. There was a period of time before when Lingyi and Mei Li said he was a [idiot who would bring a woman back once he went out], but he hasn’t been able to do so since the past few years.”

Unknowingly will have a good relationship with women?

Take women home once you go out?

The three Knights of the Round Table looked at each other again, then patted Xia Chuanhu's shoulder without saying a word, and looked at him with meaningful and inexplicable eyes.

As for the sudden actions of the three of them, Xia Chuanhu probably understood something: "Have you misunderstood me?"

"No, it's just a feeling." Lancelot laughed. "Speaking of which, Your Excellency Xia Chuan, my king said that you have something to discuss with us? May I ask what it is?"

"Oh, this one is actually about the Knights of the Round Table from the parallel world you met."

"I'm going to the White Dragon Kingdom tomorrow, and I'll probably meet them at that time, so I want to know as much as possible about them. You should have fought all of them, right? So I want to ask you .”

Those knights of the round table from parallel worlds?

Lancelot and others nodded.

"First of all, let me explain, about me in the parallel world... This sentence may be a bit inconsistent for me, but I think it is a very attractive woman."

Xia Chuanhu: "?"

15. The Knights of the Round Table

Although he knew what kind of person Lancelot was, Xia Chuanhu couldn't help saying hello when he heard the words.

An attractive female?

So what is the charm?

According to Lancelot's personality, Xia Chuanhu thinks it might be that way.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Seeing something wrong with the other three people looking at him, Lancelot quickly coughed twice, glanced at Artoria who was washing dishes not far away, and quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I There is no other meaning, just as a knight, I made the most appropriate evaluation."

"..."

It's okay not to explain, but his explanation made him feel more and more problematic.

After taking a sip of tea to calm himself down, Xia Chuanhu waved his hand: "Mr. Lancelot, you continue to talk, let's listen. If you are a very attractive woman from a parallel world... What are the specific manifestations?" What about?"

"Well... First of all, it's her strength."

Lancelot propped his chin and said.

"Although it is because of the Holy Grail, when she first fought with me, she didn't use the Holy Grail, she just fought me in a normal state, but even so, I was slightly suppressed. How should I put it... ...she has more reasons to fight than I do——it feels like that.”

"I can feel the weight of the blade is different."

For fighters, there are many things that may not be explained in words, but can be more or less felt through the collision of weapons, or through the intersection of fists.

What the opponent is carrying, what the opponent has experienced, what kind of mood the opponent is fighting with——you can feel it more or less during the battle.

Lancelot felt this when he was fighting the female self in the parallel world.

Her blade was quite heavy, so heavy that he could feel that the other party was carrying an extremely important mission.

"Is there a gap in consciousness?" Gao Wen said with a solemn expression, "The other me I met is actually the same, where is Tristan Qing?"

"Almost. Our fighting methods are different. Compared with the collision of your blades, our fighting can't really feel the heart of each other."

Tristan plucked the strings in his hand.

"However, some sad voices can be vaguely heard from the other party's attack."

A powerful awakening, and a sad voice.

The knights of the round table from the parallel world, why do they have such a situation in the battle?

"Other than that?" Xia Chuanhu continued to ask, "Are there any other points worth noting?"

"Hmm... the other party's attire."

When he said this, Lancelot's face was a little embarrassed: "The armor the other party is wearing... I don't know if the dressing style of the parallel world is different from ours, or it is because of other reasons. ——As you can see, our armored lower body is also fully armed."

"Well, indeed."

Regardless of Lancelot and Gawain, even Tristan, who is an archer, has his lower body covered with armor, which is well protected.

"But the other party is a skirt."

"Eh?"

skirt?

Xia Chuanhu thought about it for a while, and then used his imagination to materialize some of the modern skirt styles he knew on the dining table: "Is it similar to these skirts?"

"There are indeed some similarities... By the way, Your Excellency Xia Chuan, are these skirts a product of today's era?"

"Well, for example, this kind of skirt is usually worn by JK, that is, girls in their teens. This kind of tulle texture is called a nightdress, which can somewhat enhance the relationship between couples."

"Oh oh oh~~~ Is the development of the times so multifaceted?"

Listening to Xia Chuanhu's explanation as a professional, Lancelot and others also sighed. In their era, there were no such colorful skirts. I really have to praise the talents of the designers who designed these skirts.

After appraising for a while, Xia Chuanhu revoked the realization of his fantasy, and vaguely pointed to Artoria and Gray who were about to wash the dishes.

The three of Lancelot also understood, and expressed their understanding with their eyes, and naturally brought the topic back to the business.

"Let's get down to business. As I said just now, I don't seem to care about protection in the parallel world. It should be said that I have confidence in my own martial arts, or I have some protection that I don't know about. Instead of Be more careful when facing the enemy."

"Well, I understand this too." Gao Wen nodded approvingly, "The other me is in a similar situation, and because the swing is a bit large, my vision is a bit blurred when we fight. It’s easy to get distracted knowing where to look.”

In fact, Xia Chuanhu was a little interested in this detail of [Swing].

After listening to the information provided by Lancelot and Gao Wen, Xia Chuanhu also had a general understanding of the situation of Lancelot and Gao Wen on Arthur's side. In important spiritual aspects, will there be a slight advantage over there?

"Where's Sir Tristan?" Gao Wen asked, "You on the other side, is there anything you need to pay attention to during the battle?"

"No."

Tristan answered decisively.

"It's very sad that the other me is not so different from me except that I have a different gender and hold the Holy Grail."

"That's right, this is also good news. In this way, if we meet at the gate of the White Dragon Kingdom tomorrow, the odds of winning should be somewhat increased."

——Preparing the magic to force calmness in advance will probably be fine.

Xia Chuanhu thought so.

And at this moment, Artoria also came over after washing the dishes: "Master, are you going to that castle tomorrow?"

"Well, there is no doubt that this singularity is the most abnormal place. If you don't go there, you can't solve anything—that's what I think."

"In this case, let me go with you." Artoria said, "Outside the walls of the White Dragon Kingdom are stationed outside the walls of the White Dragon Kingdom, Sir Gao Wen, Sir Lancelot, and Tristan, plus Maud Red...Master, it might be a little bit hard for you to go alone."

"It's okay, they can't fly, and if I can't beat them then, I'll just fly over."

Can't fly - this is indeed a point that many followers are extremely heartbroken. Although it is not impossible to use air-to-air means, there is still a certain gap compared to those servants who can move freely in the air.

Artoria was silent for a moment: "Even so, I still have to go. I think it is necessary for me to deal with Mordred's matter in person. Please understand, Master."

Why Mordred stood there with him, this must be clarified.

"I see. Let's go together then."

16. The other side of the wrong style

at the same time.

Outside the walls of the White Dragon City, in the camp at its feet.

Riding a horse, she stopped by a tent, got off her horse, and a heroic woman in silver armor and a battle skirt, with a long sword pinned to her waist, lifted the curtain of the tent and walked in.

While seeing her, a voice came over.
