The blankets outlined her beautiful body curves. Atalanta hid under the covers, her face hidden from view. Only her pair of emerald-green beast eyes shone faintly as she looked at the three uninvited guests, her tone filled with shame and indignation.

"What...are you doing?"

After Sieg explained his origins, Atalanta immediately said, "Whatever happens, happens!" and then quickly sent the man out.

Just after being kicked out, the three of them bumped into Little Sun.

"I heard about your actions from Achilles and Chiron, so please forgive my uninvited visit."

Karna looked at Sieg and said seriously, "There is only one question. If you give a suitable answer, I will draw my gun for you in this matter."

Without mincing words, Karna stated frankly: "This is destined to be a bitter journey, for the lifespan of homunculus dictates that they can only depend on some kind of existence."

"Are you ready, the original hero of the androids?"

"That's too straightforward..." Joan of Arc complained softly.

“That’s Karna’s gentleness,” said Shuoyue. “Once Sieg starts taking action, no one will say these things to him.”

After thinking seriously for a moment, Zieg gave an equally serious answer.

“I understand, so I hope... that the things that androids need can be in our own hands and become our own power.”

Karna raised the corners of his mouth and pointed to the depths of the corridor: "Then let's search for the source."

Where exactly is the origin, the starting point of the Yggdrasil androids?

The thought of finally facing their creator, their 'father,' and the noble dragon slayer made Sieg swallow hard, but encouraged by Joan of Arc and Karna, he took a step forward and knocked on the door—

The door wasn't locked and was opened very easily.

A thick, silvery-gray fog surged forth!

"This is... the assassin who tried to kill the Master!" Jeanne immediately realized what was happening and reached out to Sieg, "Danger! Come back quickly!"

However, the android girl was faster. After confirming the connection between the Command Seals and the Servant, Sieg rushed into the thick fog without hesitation.

In any case, Gold possessed the key technology for creating androids.

He must not die before Sieg obtains this 'power'!

Inside the room, Gold stared in horror at the silver-haired girl, feeling the blade slicing blood across his neck. His already fragile mental defenses crumbled instantly.

"I...I agree!"

The thick fog dissipated in an instant, and Gold's screams echoed through the sky. Even the pigs would weep upon hearing it—another of his kind had been killed. Was the New Year coming early this year?

If you listen carefully, you can hear what Gold is shouting:

"I agree to be handed over to you! So please let me go, please let me go, I don't want to die!"

"Then the contract is established."

Speaking the words he had learned from Shuoyue, Little Jack chuckled and jumped out of the window.

At the same time, Siegfried, who was running wildly, looked up in astonishment, his body uncontrollably transforming into spirit particles and disappearing into the Black Faction's fortress.

Shuoyue touched her chest with a flickering gaze, while Gold knelt on the ground, his eyes glazed over.

As night approached, the Black side stirred up trouble once again.

Chapter 499 Reasons and Command Seals

Gold, who had handed over Black Siegfried, was surrounded by the enraged members of the Black Faction.

"What are you doing, Uncle Gold!"

"They're actually willing to give even that up to someone else!"

"The Command Seals have disappeared, which means they have completely broken away from the Black side?"

"King Arthur and Siegfried... you should know that your foolishness could very well harm the World Tree!"

They all talked at once, their faces full of anger.

Condemnation, condemnation, condemnation... There is not a single element of comfort to be found except for condemnation.

Are you kidding me? I'm the victim! It wasn't you who had a knife to your throat, it was me!

I barely survived, so why should I be the one being criticized by you guys!

Surrounded by countless figures, Gold opened his mouth, words of explanation welling up on his lips, but then retreated in dejection.

No... he knew it in his heart too.

Siegfried of the Black Faction, the dragon slayer of the Netherlands, a great hero on par with Karna the Red.

That is undoubtedly the pinnacle in any Holy Grail War, a trump card that any power must hold tightly in its hands.

Although Servants belong to their Masters, if you put Gordes and Siegfried together, anyone would choose Siegfried without hesitation.

That's true. How could a cowardly and arrogant fat man compare to that famous hero?

Perhaps having lost hope in the ever-silent Gold, the crowd dispersed, as if a farce had finally come to an end. The empty room was left with only Gold and a slender figure pacing back and forth, tidying up the mess.

Noticing the strange noise around him, Gold raised his dejected eyes and saw who the 'person' who had stayed behind was.

“Sieg… I recognize you, the android who ran away with the favor of heroes, and then returned on your own initiative.”

Ah, unlike me, I've never received a single moment of favor from heroes, and even the treasure I finally managed to grasp was given up by him for something far more base—

"Why are you helping me? You should understand that without my servant, I am worthless."

Faced with Gold's self-abandonment, Sieg pondered for a moment and then answered seriously:

"If I were in that situation, I probably wouldn't fare much better, would I?"

"is it?"

"Yeah, death is scary after all."

With a sneer, Gold let out a disdainful sound from his chest. He wanted to introduce the magician's pride to the ignorant android, to tell her that a magician would risk his life for his pursuit, but in the end, he remained silent.

He had no right to say such things, having abandoned his strongest Servant in order to save his own life. Rather, at that time, he was exactly the kind of person that magicians despised and scorned.

That's probably why the members of Yggdrasil are so angry, right? Not just because of Siegfried, but also because his actions insulted the magician's long-held principles.

"As expected, I am a complete idiot..." Gold groaned, clutching his head. He hunched over dejectedly, his arrogance completely gone, replaced by an aura of disappointment.

Instead of comforting him, Zieg nodded in deep agreement: "Indeed, even I can't stand your stupidity."

"Hey!"

“Although this is your fault, it’s not solely your fault. Besides, you are the one who created us, and the joy of our birth is the reason I repay you,” Sieg said. “But that’s all. I still have to participate in the Holy Grail War with you. If you have lost your will, you should leave as soon as possible.”

Despite the cold words, a surge of emotion welled up in Gord's heart. He stared intently at the silver-haired, red-eyed android, at the most triumphant achievement of his life... even though she had rebelled against her creator and even gained the support of the heroes.

"Do you really want freedom that much? You're just a battery, a tool to be discarded once it's used up."

"Watch your words, or I might cut off your belly fat!"

Gordes gritted his teeth and groaned – but the other party was a Master with a Servant, completely different from him, a down-and-out loser. Thinking of this, he could only raise his voice and say what he thought directly.

"In short! Whether you want to stay or leave, or whether you want freedom or whatever, it's up to you. It's none of my business anymore!"

Putting aside his irritating and dishonest attitude, in terms of results, Zieg achieved his goal without even realizing it.

Eh? "

"What?! You can't even understand such simple words? You really are—ugh!"

Accompanied by the android's merciless ultimate move, Pig-Slaughtering Fist, Gorde clutched his stomach, slowly slid to the ground, and remained motionless.

"The teacher is right. For someone like you, this method is indeed simpler."

The android girl swung her arms with a refreshed expression and gave Gord a bright smile.

"But thank you anyway."

Red team, Sky Garden

A calm, yet chillingly sharp, killing intent permeated the entire room.

"While you are aware of the reason for summoning me, can you explain why you chose the worst possible method?"

With Amakusa and the Empress shielded, when Siegfried became truly angry, the oppressive aura of a dragon slayer descended upon Lingxia and the others.

“I have the same doubts about this matter,” Artoria echoed. “Why put our former Master, Gorde, in the spotlight? I think it’s biased and will cause him significant psychological harm.”

Faced with the two Servants' questions, Lingxia smiled somewhat helplessly: "You should understand that I was not the one who devised the plan."

"Then call out Shuoyue."

All right. "

At the insistence of the two Servants, Lingxia activated the communication spell, and the young man's calm voice rang out in the room, clearly indicating that he had been there all along.

"I see. So you have doubts about what I and Jack did? Well then, let me tell you, Siegfried, the three reasons for doing this."

"Firstly, we can take you away without arousing suspicion on our side."

"Not being suspected? Does that mean taking away Command Seals and Servant ownership?" Artoria asked.

"exactly."

The moon was bright and the stars were few. In his private room, the new moon shed its robes, revealing its strong back, and then five crimson wings spread out and took flight in the mirror.

His own Command Seals, Artoria's Command Seals.

Shakespeare's Command Spell, Avisbro's Command Spell.

And, of course, Siegfried's newly acquired Command Seals.

"Due to the urgency of the situation, I directly stripped Avisbro of his Command Seals, allowing him to summon the Primal Titan ahead of time, thus preventing the Black faction from becoming too powerful. However, the act of causing a Servant to rebel without the Master's consent would obviously raise suspicions."

"And now, the Black side has heard Gold's words of surrender, and Siegfried disappeared right after Gold spoke—even if it's not enough to make them misjudge, it's enough to arouse their suspicion."

"Secondly, it is to use Little Jack's existence to further deepen suspicion."

"Little Jack?" Lingxia couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's going on now?"

“It’s a very simple logic, but you’re too close to the situation to see it clearly, Lingxia.”

Shuoyue laughed, his confident voice echoing in the room.

"Does anyone on the Black or Red side realize our existence, that is, the Blue side's?"
