Walking in the Question and Answer System of Heroic Spirits

Siegfried: "...I'm sorry, Master, my willfulness has caused you trouble."

Gold: "I need some peace and quiet. Don't bother me for now."

"The relationship between Master and Servant is not simply that of master and familiar; they also possess heroic pride, principles, or a sense of justice."

[Coules looked at Kenneth beside him and asked, "Is there something you're unhappy about with me?"]

[Kenniang, who was arranging the decorative flowers on the table, paused for a moment upon hearing this, then shook her head.]

"Really? If you have any complaints, you should tell me before they explode."

"Don't leave me completely confused later," Koles laughed.

【"Uh-huh."】

Ken nodded obediently.

"Koles."

Fiore also came out of the room at this moment.

[Koles: "Sister, what happened?"]

[Fiore: "Pack your things, we're going to Sighisoara tomorrow."]

[Kaules: "Sigishwara, why?"]

[Fiore: "Assassin, Jack the Ripper, has appeared."]

Jack: "Oh dear, is it finally my turn? Too bad he's an Assassin, it's troublesome to expose myself so easily."

Liu Daolingxia: "It's okay, Jack, let's go somewhere else now."

Jack: "Okay, Mom."

Rin Tohsaka: "Mom?"

Kenneth: "I see. Rokudou Reika, you are Jack the Ripper's Master."

Danic: "Rokudou Reika, what's your relationship with Sagara Hyoma?"

Liu Daolingxia: "I don't want to have anything to do with that man anymore."

Kiritsugu Emiya: "As expected of the legendary serial killer, he has committed a series of murders in just a few days since he arrived."

Webber: "Jack the Ripper, you really can't be fooled by her appearance, this guy is too dangerous."

Meanwhile, Lion's Roar was at its temporary base in Tulipas.

[This is an abandoned basement, which, after being slightly renovated by Lion Robber, has become even more like a haunted house.]

[With a soft scratching sound, a skull-shaped printer started moving on its own.]

[I must say, this thing is quite unique.]

The message was simple: "Go to Sighisoara, and we'll tell you more details later."

The signature reads: Monarch El-Melloi II.

Rin Tohsaka: "Wave, you really have a lot of screen time."

Ilya: "You feel like the protagonist in a novel."

Weber: "Come on, this isn't something I can control."

Upon receiving the news, Lion's Roar immediately set off, taking Mordred to Sighisoara, where they checked into a hotel.

During his break, Lion Robber had a bizarre dream about Mordred.

Or perhaps, he witnessed Xiao Mo's entire life in a dream.

From the first time Morgan brought him to meet King Arthur, he developed an admiration for him. Through hard work, he became a Knight of the Round Table, but his inability to gain the King's approval filled him with resentment. Later, his long-simmering resentment led him to betray his king, and he was killed by the Holy Lance by the King in the Battle of Camlann.

Lion's Roar doesn't understand why he would dream about these things.

However, being considerate, he didn't mention his dream after waking up.

As for Xiao Mo, she sat on the bed happily playing with the cat.

Waver: "Master can see the Servant's memories, what's going on?"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "This is another development that has never happened before."

The wife said, "So, this is Saber's past."

Lion's Dream is not just Mordred's story, but also a part of the King's experience.

Especially the Knights of the Round Table who appear frequently in it.

Agrave, Gawain, Tristan, Lancelot, Gahoris, Gareth...

Artoria: "Everyone..."

Looking at that incredibly familiar round table in the video, the King felt a pang of sorrow.

Lancelot: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, it's all because of me..."

Artoria: "No, Lord Lancelot, it is my fault for failing to lead you well."

Lancelot: "Your Majesty..."

"Damn it, why would you dream about these things?"

Upon seeing the video, Xiao Mo became furious and grabbed Lion Robber by the collar, demanding an explanation.

Lion's Robbery: "Even if you ask me that, I'm completely baffled myself."

He couldn't understand why he would dream about those things.

[“The serial killings that began the day before yesterday are, according to police, spreading further across the country. It started in the capital, Bucharest…”]

After resting, Lion Robber took Xiao Mo out to eat, drinking coffee while watching the news on a small TV.

"A serial killer case...?"

Just then, my phone rang.

[Lion's Robbery: "Hey, Lord El-Melloi II, excuse me."]

Meanwhile, the familiar figure of the Second Prince appeared, in his office, making a phone call to Shishikage while looking seriously at the documents on his desk.

Ilya: "Has it not changed much?"

Feng Xi: "Weber, it seems that no matter which world you're in, you can't escape the fate of becoming an overworked old man."

Weber: "..."

No, he refused to accept such a future.

Starting today, he will begin to regulate his daily routine and enter a health-preserving mode.

[Second Generation: "You've seen the news about the serial murders on TV, haven't you?"]

[Lion's Robbery: "Ah, I just watched it."]

[Second Generation: "That makes things easier. This matter was quite troublesome because those who were killed were all members of the Mage's Association."]

[Lion's Roar: "I see. So that's why you sent me to Sighishwara. Could it be...?"]

[King II: "That's right, all the magicians planted in Sighishwara have been killed; it was probably done by the followers."]

"It's a bit strange that the crime wasn't committed in Tulipas."

After a moment's thought, Lion's Robbery said solemnly, "Could the murderer be devouring souls?"

[Second Generation: "It seems you've thought of that too. I had the same idea. After all, Servants are familiars, requiring a huge supply of magical energy."]

[Lion's Robbery: "So, what does that priest think?"]

[Second Generation: "He said the other six Servants of the Red Team are with him now and have not engaged in any soul-devouring behavior."]

[Lion's Robbery: "So you're saying it's the Black Party? No, it's too conspicuous for Thousand World Tree to do this on its own territory. So you're saying it's a third party?"]

[Second Generation: "Regardless of the circumstances, this murderer's actions have severely violated the rules of seclusion."]

[Lion's Roar: "I see. So, it's time for me to step in."]

He glanced across the street; Xiao Mo was playing with a cat, just like a big cat.

Rebellious Knight: "Ah!!!"

Seeing her own reflection in the video, Xiao Mo felt like she had evaporated completely.

Oh no, my image is completely ruined, especially since my father and that bastard Lancelot saw it.

Lancelot: "...Mordred, so you like small animals that much?"

Artoria: "Lord Mordred..."

Looking at Xiao Mo's carefree demeanor while following Lion's Robber, it was a completely different story from when she was with me.

Sure enough, it was his own fault; he failed to lead Mordred properly, which led to the situation that turned out that way.

Waver: "Why is it devouring the souls of magicians?"

Kenneth: "It's for magic power. That girl named Rokudou Reika is probably just an ordinary person with very little magic power, so Jack the Ripper needs to use this kind of unorthodox method to replenish his magic power."
