Before others could react to what was happening, Ian understood it first.

The only people who can be called knights in this era are his two daughters, right?

"Take me to them."

Ian said this almost immediately.

"..."

The guard did not speak, but looked at Nightingale on the other side. After the latter nodded, he responded.

"okay, I get it."

Things turned out exactly as Ian had expected.

The people who appeared before him were none other than his two daughters, Modred and Gareth.

"Father!"

The moment he saw the man appear, Mordred almost jumped up.

"I finally found you!"

“…I should be the one saying this.”

Ian breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at Mordred in front of him.

"I thought I wouldn't be able to see you guys anymore."

"This……"

Mordred felt that things were not as simple as he had imagined.

"Father, what happened?"

"Let's talk after we come in."

Ian looked at Mordred and Gareth in front of him.

"Let's exchange information."

"Yes. / Got it, Father."

A few minutes later.

In a room somewhere in an abandoned hospital.

This is the "operations meeting room" that Ian temporarily set up.

After all, some things are not suitable to be told to other people in the hospital.

"what?"

After listening to his father's story, Mordred's grip on the sword loosened a little.

"Father...are you saying that we've lost contact with Chaldea?"

"Yes." Ian nodded.

"For now—"

"We haven't been able to contact them yet."

"Why is this happening?" Gareth couldn't believe what he heard. "Could it be that he's been affected by something again, just like when Ritsuka was there?"

"That's most likely the case."

Ian confirmed Gareth's statement.

"but--"

"I'm more inclined to believe that something unexpected happened."

"Mordred, Gareth, did you hear any sound when you were teleported here?"

"..."

"..."

The two knight girls looked at each other and then shook their heads.

"No, father." Mordred spoke first.

"It's pretty much the same as before."

"Me too," Gareth followed.

"..."

Is it a sound that only you can hear?

Ian confirmed this fact from his daughters' stories.

Could it be... that voice is doing something again?

Just as the man was thinking about this question, the door of the room was pushed open.

Shuten-doji ran in happily, holding the wine he made with his magic power.

“Uncle——!”

"Look at the wine we made!"

"Eh?"

Shuten-douji's gaze fell on Gareth and Mordred beside the man.

"..."

"Shouldn't we come in?" said the Ghost King of Dajiang Mountain.

"Nothing."

Ian responded to Shuten-doji with a smile.

"You've arrived just in time—where's Ibaraki?"

"Outside the door..." Shuten-doji pointed to the door behind him, "She said she wouldn't disturb our time alone together, so she won't come in."

"I see."

Ian nodded and touched Shuten-doji's head.

"Can you please call her in?"

"Good~"

Shuten-doji became docile after being touched.

If she had a tail, it would probably be wagging by now.

"We get it!"

"Let's go now!"

Soon, at Ian's signal, Ibaraki Douji also came into the room.

"Is it over so soon?"

“I thought it would take a long time.”

"after all--"

Ibaraki Douji looked at the wine in Shuten Douji's hand.

"Shuten added something special to the wine, didn't he?"

"Hey! Ibaraki, why did you say that again?! Didn't you agree not to betray us?!"

"But this is what I did to Abe-sama—I will not lie to him."

"you!"

"Let's talk about that later." Ian stroked the heads of Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji on the left and right.

"Let me introduce them to you."

"The one on the left is Mordred, and the one on the right is Gareth."

"..."

"..."

After hearing Ian's formal introduction, Shuten-doji became a little nervous.

but--

Thinking of what Ian had said before, the female ghost also mustered up the courage.

"Hello, you guys!"

"I am uncle's awesome pet!"

The moment the words fell, the scene fell into deathly silence.

Shuten-doji stood there in a daze.

Only then did she realize that she seemed to have expressed the lustful thoughts deep in her heart.

"this and that……"

"..."

"..."

It seems there is absolutely no way to remedy the situation.

Shuten-doji stood there in a daze.

Ibaraki Douji, who noticed this, completely ignited the silence.

She grabbed Shuten-doji's hand and followed up on his explosive remarks:

"Shuten isn't the only one who is Abe-sama's pet."

"Me too."

"..."

"..."

"No!" Modred was stunned, waving her hands up and down in front of Ian.

"Father!"

"What do they mean?"

"What do you mean..."

Mordred hesitated to speak.

She couldn't say that lustful word like the two little loli ghosts in front of her.

"Don't rush yet."

Ian comforted his daughter.

"Xiao Mo, they are servants—they are here for some reason."

"What's wrong with that?"

"It's totally fine to tell them that you're the one!" Mordred grasped what she thought was the crux of the matter and didn't want to let go at all.

"This kind of thing is complicated to explain."

Ian looked at his anxious daughter.

"but--"

"At least for now, I hope you won't treat them as enemies, okay?"

"..."

Although Mordred was very anxious now, he still suppressed his inner feelings after hearing his father's words.

"That--"

"What are we going to do now?"
