FATE: Target of Grand Master

Chapter 221 Persuading Chester

Seeing Cú Chulainn pulled back from the brink of death and even transformed into the Berserker King's Spirit Origin, Lan Muyan's eyes widened in disbelief.

Is there really a way to directly change the class of a Servant?

Is this the power of Morgan, the King of Lostbelts?

Lan Muyan looked at his Okita Souji, who had coughed up some blood again, and wondered whether he should ask Xia Yan to help transform Okita Souji into Okita Souji ALTER.

"Master, here, this rice ball is super delicious!"

Taking the rice ball handed to him by the smiling Souji, Lan Muyan asked, "Souji, if possible, would you like to change your spirit origin as well?"

Souji's ahoge (cowlick) wobbled a little, then drooped down.

"Master, do you think Okita is useless?"

Lan Muyan hurriedly waved his hand and explained, "No, no. I just saw that you were always coughing up blood, and I thought that if I could help you solve this problem, you would feel better. As for the issue of combat strength, I never considered it."

"Oh, I see. Haha."

Okita Souji chuckled twice, but his ahoge (cowlick) stood up straight again.

"Thank you for your kindness, Master, but Miss Okita thinks things are fine as they are."

"All right."

Lan Muyan also realized that such matters require the consent of the parties involved. His own wishful thinking might just be a burden to the other party. As for the issue of combat strength, there would always be a way to solve it.

Robin Hood walked up to Souji and whispered, "Are you really unwilling, or do you just not want your Master to owe someone a huge favor?"

Souji swallowed the rice ball in his mouth and replied, "You really can't hide anything from Mr. Robin Hood. To be honest, I have. As you've seen, converting a Spirit Origin isn't a simple matter. I believe my Master will ask Xia Yan for help, but I don't want my Master to incur a debt of gratitude. Ultimately, we are just Servants, beings who assist our Masters in passing the trials. If we put the workers into debt just to repair tools, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?"

"That's true, but you don't need to deliberately avoid your Master's kindness."

"I return this to you, Mr. Robin Hood, verbatim. You clearly care about us, yet you deliberately keep your distance."

Robin Hood scratched his head and didn't argue.

"What are you whispering about over there?"

Lan Muyan turned around and saw his two servants whispering to each other. He didn't know what they were saying, but he had a feeling that it was related to him.

"It's nothing," Okita Souji and Robin Hood replied in unison.

After successfully reshaping Cú Chulainn's spirit origin, Xia Yan finally felt like going to find Chester.

By this time, Chester was completely disheartened in Morgan's black-gun cage. He had lost not only his will to fight, but also his will to live.

Seeing Xia Yan and Lan Muyan approaching with their followers, Beowulf stood up warily, but Chester called him back.

"Beo, you can't beat them all by yourself, don't waste your energy."

"But we have no choice but to fight."

"We had no other choice long ago."

Seeing that Beowulf still had no intention of giving up, Chester stopped talking.

Perhaps Beowulf just wanted a warrior-like ending, but that's no longer his concern. Whatever, his fate is sealed. He can just clear his mind and wait to die.

Seeing that Beowulf still had the will to fight, Cú Chulainn immediately suggested, "Xia Yan, let me fight him. It'll be a good opportunity for me to get familiar with my new Spirit Origin."

"You just underwent a spirit origin conversion, is your magic power still sufficient?" Xia Yan asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, I'm at 100% peak condition right now."

Seeing that Cú Chulainn looked eager to try, Xia Yan naturally agreed.

After the two Servants left, Morgan removed the cage of the black spear. Due to the magical interference from the twenty-eight demon god pillars, Morgan did not notice the magical fluctuations when Li Zhuang left, and only then did he realize that Li Zhuang had disappeared at some point.

"It's alright, Morgan."

Xia Yan patted Morgan on the shoulder gently and focused on questioning Chester.

"Chester, I have some questions I'd like to ask you. Would you be willing to help me answer them?"

Xia Yan had Morgan conjure up three extremely comfortable ergonomic chairs, and then pushed two of them next to Lan Muyan and Chester, indicating that Chester could also sit more comfortably.

Chester didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly, even leaning the chair back.

Why should I answer your question? Will you let me off the hook because of it?

Seeing Chester's "arrogant" attitude, Lan Muyan pulled out a pistol without saying a word and fired a shot at Chester's feet.

boom!

Looking at the bullet holes in his footsteps, Chester actually smiled.

"I'm not even afraid of death, so why would I be afraid of your threats?"

Lan Muyan was about to fire another shot at Chester's leg when Xia Yan stopped him.

"Mr. Chester, this is indeed a dead end for you, but you can't blame anyone else; you chose this path yourself. However, there should have been someone who accompanied you on this dead end, but he ran away on his own. Don't you feel resentful?"

Xia Yan's words did indeed touch Chester.

Yes, although betrayal was my own choice, in principle, even if I failed this trial, I should have been qualified to leave it. However, Li Zhuang betrayed me and abandoned me here.

"I assure you, if you tell me everything you know, Lan Muyan and I will avenge you."

Chester was silent for a moment, then spoke, "How can you guarantee that? Do you think I'll live that long?"

Lan Muyan coldly replied with two words: "Dream on."

Xia Yan glanced at Lan Muyan, who practically had "I'll kill you" written all over his face, and said to Chester, "That probably won't work. But besides the two of us, no one knows what really happened in this trial. If we don't take action, no one can avenge you."

Chester thought about it and realized that it made sense.

With the deaths of Zhang Jiao and Yuan Weichao, the conflict between Xia Yan, Lan Muyan, and Li Zhuang has been established. Chester's current choice is simply whether to hate Xia Yan and the others more or hate Li Zhuang more.

Without a doubt, it must be Li Zhuang!

Although Chester's Servants were all killed by Xia Yan's side, they did have a reason to act and the strength to win.

On the other hand, if Li Zhuang hadn't broken his promise and failed to follow the guild's rules, Chester would have already successfully returned to the safe house, and at least his Master Trial would still have a chance to continue.

"Ask away. As long as we can kill that bastard Li Zhuang, I'll tell you everything I know."
