Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

Achilles stepped back, pulled the arrow from his body, and laughed, "Hahaha, isn't this wonderful? Black Archer, it's fate that I'm fighting someone who can kill me."

"O Olympian gods, bestow glory and honor upon this battle. Let us have a chance to settle this once more; let me see your face next time."

Achilles then summoned his chariot and retreated.

Watching Achilles' departing figure, Chiron sighed, "How ironic, Achilles! Fate sometimes even bares its fangs at us, the dead."

[It's truly lamentable that this master and apprentice, after such a rare reunion, are now at odds with each other.]

[Fiore: "Are you alright, Chiron?"]

[Chiron: Hmm, it seems my opponent in this Holy Grail War has been decided.]

Heel: "Haha, a duel with Chiron-sensei? I'm really looking forward to it."

Teacher Ma: "Yes, I also want to see how you grow."

Heel: "No problem, I won't hold back then."

Teacher Ma: "Me too."

Not long after the Red Team retreated, Astolfo pulled the androids out of the castle.

[On the way, I encountered some magicians who were receiving treatment for injuries, but since I saw it was Afu, I didn't pay much attention to them.]

Before leaving the city, Alford gave his sword to the android for self-defense.

However, he was unaware that his actions had been discovered by Avisbro's golem bird.

[In the room, Gold was complaining to Siegfried when suddenly an announcement rang out from the castle.]

[Avisbro: "Masters of the Yggdrasil, take note! Rider has escaped with a homunculus. That homunculus is crucial material; you must capture it alive."]

[Gold quickly received orders and, quite disgruntled, could only take Siegfried and chase after Alfred.]

Sereneka: "What are you doing, Rider? You've made such a commotion!"

Afu: "What? Isn't this just Caster making a mountain out of a molehill? He just wants to let one android go."

Avisbro: "I'm sorry, this android is a special case, and it's beneficial to my research."

Weber: "You Black team certainly had a lively night."

Danic: "I'm sorry for making this a laughing stock of you all."

[Afu led the android into the forest, but the android was too weak and became breathless after running for a short distance.]

[Android: "Can I really escape?"]

[Afu: "Of course."]

"But even if I do nothing, I will still die in three years."

The android said in bewilderment, "I can neither contribute to the world nor leave a trace. What's the point of me living like this?"

[Afu: "Do you feel that your existence is something that is not allowed?"]

[Android: "...I don't know."]

"There is no obligation that you have to do."

[Afu shouted: "You only do things if you want to; the desire to live is the only true roar of humanity."]

[Android: "Survive..."]

Just then, a group of golems emerged from underground and surrounded them.

"Ah, you're quite popular."

[Afu drew his lance, preparing to meet the enemy.]

Weber: "I never imagined you could say something so philosophical while you're alive."

Afu: "Hmph, I'm very smart."

Meanwhile, Jeanne d'Arc also came here to investigate because of the previous battle between the Red and Black factions.

She also noticed something was wrong with the Red Team; not a single Master was present on the battlefield.

Just then, she sensed internal strife within the Black faction and, driven by curiosity, rushed over.

Meanwhile, Alfred had just finished dealing with all the golems when Siegfried's team caught up.

"Found it. They actually made me do this kind of menial task."

Gold was very dissatisfied with the task of capturing the androids, believing it was a waste of his talents.

"You'd better get out of here!"

[A-Fu immediately stepped in front, letting the artificial human run first.]

[Gold: "Saber, suppress Rider!"]

Siegfried immediately engaged Alfred in combat. Seeing this, the homunculus turned and fled, with Gordes quickly giving chase.

However, the android's physical condition was too poor; it collapsed after only a few steps and was overtaken by Gord.

"I really don't understand why Caster cares so much about this defective product that can't even walk properly."

Chapter 144 Siegfried's Awakening

[Gold reached out to grab the android, but the android instinctively waved his hand away.]

[Gold: "Hmm, so it has developed self-awareness."]

"I want to live."

[The android instinctively raises its hand, and the magic circuits manifest.]

"The counselor is activated!"

"Transform, Iron Fist!"

[Gold reacted quickly, swiftly crossing his arms to cast a spell, his hands covered in black magic, forcefully blocking the android's attack.]

Feng Xi: "Wow, Armament Haki, he's really good at hiding it."

The Great Emperor: "What is Armament Haki?"

Feng Xi: "A fictional skill in a comic book is very similar to this magic trick."

The Emperor: "Oh, what comic? I'll check it out another day."

Feng Xi: "It hasn't been updated yet."

The Emperor: "Is the update very slow? When will it be updated?"

Feng Xi: "The first chapter will be updated during the summer vacation two years from now."

The Emperor: "..."

He felt like this kid was playing a trick on him, but he had no proof.

The android's resistance failed, and it was sent flying by a single punch from Gord, collapsing weakly to the ground.

[It's no wonder Gold hit so hard; if he hadn't defended against that attack, he might have lost his life.]

[Video paused.]

[Question: What will happen to the android in the video next?]

Gold: "What else can happen? This guy's body is so weak, and he took a solid punch from my amplified version. He probably won't survive."

[Ding! Gord answered incorrectly, deducting 1 Saint Quartz.]

Gold: "!!!"

Sereneka: "Idiot, think it through before you answer."

Gold: "I didn't answer. I just made a casual analysis."

Danic: "Looks like we can't just talk during the quiz."

Kenneth: "Could it be..."

He thought of Joan of Arc, who had appeared in the video earlier. The fact that the video showed her meant that she couldn't have just been there for show, and she was indeed on her way here.

Kenneth: "It was Joan of Arc who saved this android."

[Ding! Congratulations Kenneth, you answered part of the question correctly and have received 1 Saint Quartz.]

Danic: "So, even answering part of it correctly counts?"

Kenneth: "You only got part of it right. It seems there are some gaps in your knowledge."

Kotomine Shiro: "Yes, it must have been Astolfo and Joan of Arc who worked together to save the homunculus."

[Ding! Congratulations to Kotomine Shirou for answering part of the question correctly. You have received 1 Saint Quartz.]

Kotomine Shiro: "So you only got part of it right?"

Empress: "Is something still missing?"

Feng Xi: "It was Siegfried, Astolfo, and Joan of Arc who worked together to save this homunculus."

[Ding! Congratulations to Feng Xi for answering this question correctly. You have received 3 Holy Crystals.]

Gold: "(?⊿?)?!!!"
