Davidian's Holy Grail War

Chapter 258 He is simply superman

It takes four days to travel from here to Eri, and this time Davidian has also been added to the fighting force.

After all, the combat mission on the North Wall is not as urgent as before, and Tomoe Gozen is enough.

This mission is extremely important and cannot afford any mistakes, so Davidian must also set off.

However, on the way, David secretly quickened his pace and left the others behind with Ritsuka. Only then did Ritsuka ask David:

"Mr. Davidian, do you really think Quetzal is someone who must be defeated? Is she really the evil goddess she claims to be?"

David glanced at him, then looked ahead again, but he still gave his answer—yes and no.

At least her goal wasn't to destroy this land; spoiled children never really grow up. Someone always has to play the bad guy, pushing others towards difficulties.

After all, he possessed the memories of the Sixth Singularity and knew his mindset and choices at the time.

So after thinking about it for a while, Davidian finally understood what Quetzal meant.

However, the person who needs to demonstrate that courage to overcome difficulties cannot be one of the Servants, but must be Ritsuka, a living, breathing person in the present moment.

After all, Servants are merely a side of Heroic Spirits, a familiar, a shadow of yesterday. What they showed is now obsolete and useless; we still have to rely on Ritsuka.

Before they set off, they also heard the soldiers stationed at the south gate talking about Quetzal.

She noticed that the soldiers at the South Gate were too weak, so she even gave them mangoes that didn't belong to this era. After eating them, the soldiers regained a lot of energy.

Therefore, some people don't really think that goddess is a bad person and hope to reach a reconciliation with her.

Does this mean that Quetzalcoatl's popularity has surpassed Ishtar's? After all, the first reaction of all the people of Uruk when they see Ishtar is to run away.

Ritsuka understood David's meaning after hearing his words, which confirmed her own inner thoughts.

However, it's not easy to demonstrate these things in this situation now. If only I could be a little taller...

Mash caught up from behind and asked Ritsuka what she thought of Quetzalcoatl. To be honest, Mash also felt conflicted this time.

Even though you can genuinely feel that Quetzalcoatl likes humans, she can still kill them with that smile.

Mashu has never encountered such an opponent before, so it's normal for her to be troubled by it.

"Miss Mashu, don't worry too much. I believe Ritsuka will be able to solve this problem."

After all, he was the last Master of Humanity; the fact that he had overcome so many difficulties to get to where he is now is remarkable in itself.

Gareth comforted everyone, and Davidian wore the same expression. At the same time, he felt a sense of satisfaction with Gareth; she was indeed his daughter, her compliments flowed so smoothly.

Mashu thought for a moment and then laughed. That's true; although her senior often acted recklessly, his recklessness often yielded excellent results.

I still vividly remember the scene in the Third Singularity where Euryale was being raced against Hercules. Although it was certainly crazy, the final result was also good.

As night fell, the dense forest finally cooled down, and the group decided to rest there for the night before heading to Eridu the next day.

David told everyone to get some sleep, and that he would take over the night watch.

That goddess is difficult to deal with; if I were there, I could handle her for a long time. You bunch of kind-hearted people going against the pinnacle of goodness are really going to suffer a lot.

Morgan's words rang in her ears, though they were sharp and sarcastic. However, Davidian didn't pay them any mind, as the concern in her tone was still evident.

Morgan was just like that: a cruel vixen, a magnificent goddess, and a pure enchantress—all three traits combined in one person.

However, Davidian could actually understand this change in her.

She is a pure and beautiful fairy when traveling alongside herself, a magnificent goddess when teaching her children, and a cruel and wicked woman when plotting against the Round Table and Camelot.

Each one of them is her; the only difference is who she faces.

Even Gawain treated Morgan as a respected mother before they completely fell out, which shows just how capable Morgan was.

The situation in Britain was just too bad, so bad that everyone ended up in the worst possible state.

"I know, I know. Anyway, if you, the great magician, were here, I wouldn't have to work so hard."

David Ann sat on a thick tree branch, gazing into the distance, chatting idly with Morgan. It was a pleasant time for the two of them.

【However, I must also commend you; your performance against the Gorgons was exceptionally brilliant. You truly are worthy of my beloved, the unparalleled Lord Camelot.】

At this moment, Morgan surprisingly uttered words of praise, which startled David. However, he readily accepted the compliment, as it was rare yet pleased him.

It was the same when they traveled together before; the two of them would bicker and say pleasant things to each other.

Davidian wasn't very mature at the time, and Morgan would stop his nonsense like a mature older sister.

Even now, when he occasionally recalls that memory, he still feels a deep sense of joy.

Just then, David heard a sound and looked in the direction of it. Ritsuka was still sitting by the campfire, and the person next to him was... Ishtar?

David watched the conversation between the two people quietly, and then he witnessed a shocking scene.

With just a simple sneeze, Ishtar's appearance changed instantly.

Holy crap... Is that the true face of the Third Pillar Goddess? Although the hair color and attire are different, there's no doubt that her face and body still resemble Ishtar.

And judging from how familiar these two people seem, this is definitely not the first time they've chatted like this.

Davidian really wanted to hold Fujimaru Ritsuka's face and look at it carefully a dozen times, making sure to see every corner and not miss a single detail.

This guy must be having some kind of trouble with a woman somewhere, right? Absolutely!

That haughty tone, that friendly demeanor... Davidian was certain he hadn't misjudged her; the third pillar goddess had unknowingly gained Ritsuka's favor!

Good job, Fujimaru Ritsuka! As expected of the last Master of humanity, not only can you tame a beast like Ishtar, but now you can even pamper this unknown Third Pillar Goddess like a little girlfriend!

You're something else, Fujimaru Ritsuka! If I had had this kind of skill back then, Britain would never have turned into a battlefield.

Suddenly something jumped onto David's shoulder. He turned around and saw it was Fufu.

"Foufoufoufoufoufou! Fouf ...

"Go ahead, but I don't care. I'm on the side of taking all the credit, this kid deserves it."

After saying that, David threw Fou toward Ishtar, leaving the rest to Fou to handle.

Chapter 259 The Great Battle of the Shattered Sunstone

The next day, the group set off again for Eridu, and David bury the events of the previous night deep in his heart.

Ritsuka probably already has a general idea in mind, but he doesn't need to think about it too much now.

Fujimaru Ritsuka is just too amazing; someone like her would thrive anywhere. Maybe I should seriously consider marrying Ritsuka to Quetzalcoatl later? It might even spark an internal war within the Three Goddesses Alliance.

"As expected, I still care about what happened before." In this group where everyone was preoccupied with their own thoughts, Mashu was the first to speak.

There are some things she still cares about, and if she doesn't say them now, she's afraid she'll forget them later.

"Hmm, are you referring to the mother Quetzalcoatl mentioned?" Merlin probably guessed what she wanted to say, so he spoke for her.

Mashu nodded; that was the question.

Everyone began to wonder who this "mother" referred to. Currently, among the Three Goddess Alliance, only Gorgon is referred to as "mother" by Kingu.

But to expect Quetzalcoatl, a goddess of South America, to call the Gorgon of Greek mythology her mother...

They generally refer to this kind of dream as daydreaming.

"Does Miss Ishtar know anything about this?" Mash asked Ishtar again, but Ishtar only gave her a puzzled look and replied that she knew nothing about the inner workings of the Three Goddesses Alliance.

Mashu was taken aback, but Ishtar answered her. Ritsuka was even more certain of her guess; the goddess of the third pillar was indeed someone else.

He had seen that person before; it wasn't the rather spoiled and willful Ishtar in front of him, but the gentle and lovely one who was like a young lady from a wealthy family.

Just as Mashu was about to ask something, the leopard-man, the guardian of this dense forest, descended from the sky and landed in front of them.

She started by giving a self-introduction that no one could understand. David got a little annoyed and poked Ishtar next to him with the hilt of his sword.

Ishtar understood his meaning and fired a light blast. The blast actually hit the leopard man squarely on the forehead, and judging from the charred appearance, it looked like it was in a lot of pain.

"It doesn't hurt at all~ Hahahaha~" Even though tears were welling up in his eyes from the pain, the leopard man was still spouting nonsense about not feeling any pain at all.

Then she started rambling again, but her words revealed important information. This girl wasn't one of Quetzalcoatl's summoned minions at all; she was just a lone Servant.

Chun Chun only stayed with Quetzalcoatl to get some magic power to avoid disappearing because he didn't have a Master. Now Merlin and Devian both know what to do with him.

At the same time, David wanted to see just how high Ritsuka's charm level was, so he turned to look at Ritsuka's eyes and expression, signaling him to go for it now.

Don't worry, you won't die. It's just a little bit of seduction.

Ritsuka swallowed hard to compose himself, then stepped forward with steady steps and a majestic bearing.

Davidian clearly saw that the leopard man actually took a step back, obviously somewhat overwhelmed by Ritsuka's imposing presence.

She even blushed!

"Leopard Man! Your fur is as glossy and lustrous as a Demon Boar! Your eyes are as round and bright as the Gazing One's! You are simply—too beautiful!"

His calm words, coupled with his body language, caused the leopard man to slide to his knees at lightning speed.

She gave in immediately, completely forgetting about Quetzalcoatl. Now she's Fujimaru Ritsuka's Servant, meow!

Davidian is now certain that there's something seriously wrong with Fujimaru Ritsuka; his charm seems to be off the charts.

Is it an innate allure of the Holy Body? It seems like it would be hard for any Servant to resist him.

Aside from Anna, who harbored resentment towards the recruitment effort, the others were quite supportive of the leopard-man's addition. And with the leopard-man's defection, they now truly had unimpeded movement through the jungle.

Led by the leopard-man, they finally made it safely through the dense forest, and before reaching Eridu, they even saw the hundred Uruk soldiers who had been taken away earlier.
