My fiancée Yukino
Page 287
There's no need to worry about meeting up; Artoria can find herself easily.
Meat, vegetables, fish, shrimp and seafood—Luo Bai went on a shopping spree, grabbing whatever looked good and putting it into his shopping cart.
Upon arriving at the seafood section, Luo Bai saw rows of neatly arranged...
After thinking for a moment, the octopus said, "Artoria doesn't seem to like octopuses, so let's forget about this one."
After buying some fresh shrimp, Luo Bai was about to check if there were any leftovers when he saw Artoria pushing a shopping cart piled high with snacks, accompanied by Xia Shi and Tina, walking towards him.
Not bad, they listened to their own opinions and didn't fill the car with snacks.
Volume 1: Chapter 598 Dinner Invitation (2/2)
The four of them met up, and Luo Bai asked Artoria and the two little girls what else they wanted to eat for dinner.
Artoria glanced at Lobe's overflowing cart and said happily, "It's enough. I'm not too picky about the variety of food."
Well, what they mean is that as long as it tastes good and comes in large quantities, that's fine.
Xia Shi and Tina felt the same way; the food at home was delicious every day, and they weren't picky eaters.
"Okay, in that case, let's go pay the bill and go home."
After paying and settling in, the four of them left the supermarket carrying large and small bags.
After getting into the car, Luo Bai put all his belongings into his bracelet, started the car, and took out his phone to call Hoshino Ai, turning on the speakerphone.
The call was quickly connected, and Hoshino Ai's energetic voice came through.
"Brother Luo Bai, have you picked up Xia Shi and Tina yet?"
"Oh, I've picked them up. I've also bought the ingredients for dinner. How are things on your end? What time are you planning to be back?"
In STARRY, Hoshino Ai, who was sitting with Nijika and the others discussing the song, said with a smile, "Hehe, we saw the lyrics to the new song written by Kotori-chan, it's really good! We were just discussing the arrangement. Ryo is in charge of the music, and I'm also planning to offer some suggestions. It'll be a test of what I've been learning lately! I'll probably be home a little later. Nijika and the others originally suggested having dinner together outside, but we have guests at home today, so I'll definitely be back. Around 5:30, I think."
"5:30, I know. But since something good is happening today, why don't you ask Hongxia and the others if they want to come over for a meal or something? There are already a lot of people, so let's all have some fun together."
"Hmm, I think that's a good idea! I'll ask them and message you later. Bye!"
After hanging up the phone, Hoshino Ai looked at the four members of Nijika and her friends: "Everyone, do you want to come to my house for dinner? Luo Bai is back today, and a new member is coming too, so there's going to be a big meal!"
"Feast!"
"Is the senior back?"
Yamada Ryo's mind is currently filled with the word "feast". It's already past mid-April, and for someone like her who can't control her spending, she's long out of money and has to rely on Nijika for help from time to time.
So the moment I hear about a big meal, my brain starts to go out of control.
The others were very curious, as Luo Bai, who had been away for several days, had finally returned.
Hongxia looked at Xingye Ai and asked, "Ai, where did senior go? He's been gone for several days without telling us."
Kita Ikuyo asked excitedly, "They must have gone to save the world!"
Although Goto Ichiri didn't say anything, the curiosity in her eyes was unmistakable.
After thinking for a moment, Hoshino Ai said, "It might be true that they went to save the world, but things turned out a bit unexpectedly. Someone else took over the task. Brother Luo and the others need to come back quickly, otherwise it might affect our world."
The people here have basically forgotten about the Type-Moon world, including Nijika and the others.
Wow! That's impressive!
After sighing, Hongxia looked at everyone and asked, "What do you think? Do you want to go?"
Yamada Ryo was the first to raise his hand and said without hesitation, "I don't care about the big meal, I mainly want to know how the world was saved."
"...Do you think I'd believe you saying that?"
Rolling her eyes at her friend, Nijika looked at Kita Ikuyo and Goto Ichiri, as well as her older sister Hoshika who had come over after hearing the news.
Kita Ikuyo happily took out her phone: "Great! I'm very interested, and the gathering will definitely be lively, but I need to call home first!"
Ichika Hoshika said, "Go if you want. I'd feel more at ease if it's Luo Bai's side."
"Hehe, sis, you're coming too! If you're alone, you'll definitely be eating instant noodles again!"
Hoshino Ai also said, "That's right, that's right, Hoshino-nee, you should come too! I'll show you my karaoke room at home tonight! As for getting home tonight, it's easy, just have Luo Bai take you!"
Ichika felt that she was too old to get involved, but she couldn't resist her younger sister's insistence and had no choice but to agree.
Finally, only Goto Ichiri was left.
Socially anxious people get a little flustered at the mere mention of gatherings or dinners.
Hongxia comforted her, "It's okay, little lonely one. We're at your senior's house, there are no strangers, just Yukino-senpai and the others! Besides, this way you can also work on your social anxiety, right? You have to be brave, little lonely one!"
"Ugh... I... I understand. I'll call home and tell them."
As he spoke, he took out his phone and ran to the side to call his family.
At the Goto family home, Michiyo Goto, who was preparing dinner, was also very surprised to receive a call from her daughter.
However, after learning that it was a dinner party at Luo Bai's house, and that everyone in the band was going, she didn't object and happily said, "I understand, then go have fun, but be polite, okay?"
"Okay, I understand, Mom! Then I'll be back after dinner."
After making the call, Kita Ikuyo and Yamada Ryo also finished contacting each other without any problems.
Hoshino Ai said happily, "Great! I'll send a message to Brother Luo Bai. Now let's continue discussing the new song. At 5:30, I'll arrange for someone from Brother Luo Bai's company to pick us up. Brother Luo Bai gave me his phone number before, so I can contact him if I need a car. If we're in Tokyo, I can have my manager arrange a company car for me. If we're in Chiba, I'll contact Brother Luo Bai."
"Wow! Private car service, that's impressive!"
Kita Ikuyo asked excitedly, "What kind of car will it be? Is it one of those super long cars that you see in movies?"
Hoshino Ai tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "If you want one, you can have one. I remember their company has this model in their cars for picking up guests, and it's just the right size for the six of us. Otherwise, we'd have to call two cars. Okay, let's settle on that then."
"Huh? Are you serious?"
Now it was Kita Ikuyo's turn to be dumbfounded; she had only asked casually.
Hoshino Ai waved her hand dismissively and said, "Hehe, don't worry about it, it's nothing. Brother Luo Bai already said that I can use his company's car when I'm working or going out in Chiba, as long as the driver is available. Hmm, I've asked, it's fine, the car will be here soon. Let's get down to business!"
We looked at each other, then decided to put those things aside for now and focus on the song.
Volume 1: Chapter 599 King Arthur is a girl?! (1/2)
As evening fell, the group of people, traveling in luxury cars, arrived at Luo Bai's villa area.
Looking out the car window at the rows of luxurious villas, Little Lonely couldn't help but tremble.
"Are all the people living here super rich? Is it really appropriate for me to come here?"
Sitting across from her, Hoshino Ai smiled and said, "They just have a little money, not some kind of superhuman feat. They're just ordinary people. As for status, it's nothing special. In this villa district, businessmen and politicians live about half and half. Of course, not all villas are occupied. As far as I know, less than half are occupied. Some others have been bought, but people don't live here permanently; they just use them as temporary residences after coming to Tokyo. Alright, we've arrived."
As soon as he finished speaking, the car stopped in front of a three-story villa.
After leading everyone out of the car, Hoshino Ai thanked the driver who brought them there, and after the car drove away, she happily said, "Come on, this is our home! Welcome everyone!"
Open the front gate, cross the front yard to the villa door, and before Hoshino Ai could even raise her hand, the villa door opened.
Artoria appeared at the door, smiling as she said, "Welcome back, Ai. We also have a few guests. Welcome to visit us."
"Sister Artoria, I'm back!"
Hoshino Ai greeted everyone cheerfully, then ushered them in, introducing, "This is Artoria Pendragon. She came back today with Luo Bai. As for her identity... well..."
For a moment, Hoshino Ai didn't know how to introduce Artoria's identity. She couldn't just say that the other party was King Arthur, could she?
Noticing Hoshino Ai's distress, Artoria said directly, "I am Lobai's knight, well, although he doesn't really need my protection."
"Wow! Knight, you look amazing!" Nijika looked at the other person in surprise, and then introduced, "Hello, I am Ijika Nijika, and this is my older sister, Ijika Seika!"
The others also introduced themselves one after another.
Yamada Ryo looked at Artoria thoughtfully and said, "Pendragon? Isn't that King Arthur's surname?"
"King Arthur?"
Kita Ikuyo looked at Yamada Ryo in surprise, "Ryo-senpai, is that the legendary King Arthur?"
Then, Kita Ikuyo looked at Artoria with shining eyes.
With a helpless smile, Artoria said, "It is indeed this surname. If you insist, you can consider me a member of the royal family who inherited this surname. Of course, the Pendragon lineage no longer exists."
Just then, Luo Bai's voice came over.
"Saying it no longer exists isn't entirely accurate, Artoria."
"kindness?"
As soon as she turned around, Artoria saw Luo Bai carrying two plates of food walking out of the kitchen.
Smelling the rich aroma, Artoria was a little tempted, but she couldn't help asking, "What do you mean by that? Could it be that..."
After greeting Hongxia and the others, Luo Bai led everyone into the house and put the dishes down in the dining room. He said, "King Arthur's lineage may have no descendants, but have you forgotten Morgan le Fay?"
"Wait, you don't mean to say that there are descendants who have passed it down, do you?"
Artoria's expression was somewhat ominous, because this was her elder sister's bloodline, which had been passed down to this day but had not appeared. Who knew what she was plotting!
Luo Bai smiled and nodded: "That's right, there is indeed such a thing, and Morgan le Fay's lineage has indeed been planning something all along, which is to create a perfectly suitable body to resurrect King Arthur."
At this moment, the others also came over, and Yukino came to Luo Bai's side and asked, "Why did you only think of that now?"
“There’s no way around it, time is limited. We can’t exactly make a trip to England, can we?” Luo Bai shrugged helplessly and said to Artoria, “I don’t know how the ceremony preparations are going, but I do know one thing: after thousands of years of attempts, a child has finally been born, and her appearance is changing towards King Arthur as she grows up. Now, she has come to the Clock Tower to study and is Waver Velvet’s apprentice. Ah, it’s better to call him El-Melloi II now.”
“Weber... Oh, it was him. I know now.”
Artoria exhaled and looked at Luo Bai, saying, "After that, let's go there. I want to see that child."
“It’s necessary to go once. I did forget about that before. The child also carries something with him as a weapon, your Holy Lance.”
Upon hearing this, Artoria's eyes narrowed.
"The Holy Lance... I really have no choice but to go."
Luo Bai took the large casserole from Shinobu Kocho as she came out of the kitchen, placed it on the dining table, and said, "The specific time is undetermined. When we go there tomorrow, I'll ask Lucoa. If the singularity has been restored, then the timeline should return to normal. We can then go and completely destroy the Holy Grail system, and then set off for England."
That being said, the world line that Luo Bai went to was somewhat different from the prologue of FGO, and Luo Bai guessed that it was likely to be different from what he had imagined.
The most important thing is that Saber is on their side and hasn't turned evil, and Dog Brother isn't Caster either.
If we go then, besides Lucoa and Tohru, let's also invite Elma and Fafnir.
"Well, it's up to you."
Although she knew what her elder sister's lineage was doing, and even that they had actually created a child to serve as their vessel, Artoria was not angry.
After all, he no longer belonged to that world; strictly speaking, he had already transferred to this world.
Even if Morgan's resurrection ritual is initiated, nothing will change; there will be no resurrection of King Arthur.
Hoshino Ai watched the two of them talk for a long time and quickly stopped the conversation.
"Alright, you can talk about these things after dinner. It's time to eat now! By the way, where is Medea?"
Luo Bai ruffled the girl's hair and said with a smile, "She bought the house next door and is currently renovating the basement, opening up the two underground spaces to create her own magic workshop. If you want to learn anything during your break, you can go to her."
Yamada Ryo took out his phone and said, "Medea, another name that sounds familiar."
Luo Bai had no intention of hiding anything and said directly, "She is the fourth princess of Colchis in Greek mythology, a genius magician of the Age of Gods. She is quite easy to talk to, well, as long as you don't bring up the topic of Jason."
"God, a figure from mythology?"
Kita Ikuyo's eyes widened, and she said excitedly, "Did you come back with you, Senior Luo Bai?"
Luo Bai nodded and said, "That's right, there are a few others as well. By the way, Artoria isn't a descendant of King Arthur as Xiao Ai said; she is King Arthur himself. It's best you keep this to yourselves and don't tell anyone else. Of course, even if you did, most people probably wouldn't believe you."
"...King Arthur was a girl?!?"
Volume 1: Chapter 600 Dinner (2/2)
Five minutes later, Medea came out of the basement, and everyone sat down in the dining room to begin dinner.
Although the food was really delicious, Nijika and the others' attention was still entirely on Artoria. Even Medea and Medusa didn't receive as much attention as Artoria.
Medea and Medusa understood this, because if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have thought that King Arthur was actually a girl.
In just two minutes, Artoria had finished half a bowl of rice. After swallowing the braised pork in her mouth, she looked helplessly at Hongxia and the others and said, "Um, if you have anything you're curious about, you can just ask. I feel embarrassed to continue eating while you keep staring at me like that."
