"It seems this request is even more challenging than we anticipated."

Da Vinci stroked her chin and muttered to herself, then began to retreat frantically toward the door. She could already see the trouble ahead, and she wanted to get out of there.

We can leave this to Gudako and the others; they're strong enough to handle it.

"Oh, are you going out? Are you not feeling well?"

Oberon seemed to be shouting out of good intentions, and Gudako and the others immediately turned their heads and fixed their gazes on Leonardo da Vinci.

"Da Vinci-chan~"

Gudako vanished in an instant like a ghost, appearing behind Leonardo da Vinci with a backhand. Her eyes were obscured by the shadow of her bangs, and the hot breath she exhaled fell on Leonardo's earlobe, making him shiver.

"Wait, wait, wait, I know, I'll help!"

Da Vinci quickly begged for mercy, and rolled his eyes at the talkative Oberon, thinking, "How come I never noticed how much you talked before?"

"Um... everyone, let's decide on a time first so we can issue an announcement."

With a gentle reminder from the administrator, Gudako had to temporarily let Da Vinci off the hook. After a brief discussion, the group decided to start immediately, with Gudako settling on other members to assist her.

By the way, Leonardo da Vinci is in the starting lineup.

"Okay, I'll issue the announcement right away."

After the administrator left, Gudako and the others began tidying up the room, wanting to make a good impression on the people who would be coming later.

However, they clearly don't understand the true value of a 'fairy'. Fairies are inherently flawed, and Gudako's request further filtered out the flawed fairies. It's a wonder that even a fool like Gudako could come.

It's said that fools are easy to fool, but most fools aren't bad people.

"I am a trainee who has practiced for 250 years, rebelling against Morgan. My ultimate move is to create a sphere of magic and launch it with considerable power..."

"I am the world's greatest swordsman, my swordsmanship is unparalleled. You say a fairy? Fairies aren't human. My ultimate move is invincible..."

"Let me tell you, Morgan is no good. If I were in charge, I'd just give everyone 100,000 points, and then everyone could buy whatever they wanted..."

"Morgan is an idiot, a big idiot! You ask why I say this? Do you think I'll give you points if I don't say it? I just want points."

···

In just half a day, Gudako and her group encountered strange trainees, including one who fantasized about becoming a manager, one who mindlessly cursed in order to gain points, and a high fairy who could only fight humans, among other characters.

The fairies really opened everyone's eyes in the past half day, mainly because there were so many of these guys outside, it seemed like there were always a lot of people.

However! Gudako is no pushover either. Having traveled to so many places and with her unique way of searching, Gudako also taught the fairies a lesson.

"You can't do it, get out."

"Unqualified."

"No."

"You can't crawl."

"No."

····

With just a glance, Gudako would often refuse before the other person had even finished speaking, her speed leaving the fairy who wanted to speak feeling extremely uncomfortable.

They were all holding it in.

"Why can't I do it!"

"Sir Tristan, see the guest out!"

When questioned, Gudako chose not to cause trouble for herself and simply saw the guests off.

She could tell that these fairies were eccentric, so she absolutely couldn't say anything more.

This process continued until the afternoon, with fairies constantly coming in and quickly leaving, until Gudako saw that it was almost time and waved her hand.

"That's about enough. Let's wrap this up for today and talk about it again tomorrow."

"Phew~ It's finally over!"

Da Vinci, who had been sitting motionless next to him, immediately slumped down, stuffing fruit into his mouth to replenish his energy while complaining.

"Gudako, I'm not trying to be mean, but messing around with requests is one thing, but you haven't even looked at each person who comes in for more than three seconds. Is that really necessary?"

"Or are you planning to do something weird again? Let me tell you this first, weird and reckless things are not allowed. I will stop you."

Gudako smiled slightly without saying anything, but waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, I know what I can do here."

Gudako has a very good reason, or rather, a line of reasoning that we follow.

The current goal is to defeat Morgan, the Lostbelt King. This process requires dealing with his henchmen and finding a specific target. Posting a quest can attract many people, including Morgan's henchmen.

If Morgan's underlings come, it'll be a good opportunity to see their strength, and maybe even steal a piece of the pie.

If they don't come, they can find out Morgan's reputation this way, and maybe they can even find new teammates and gain new information.

There's a saying that goes, "You just need to initiate the team fight, and your teammates will be automatically matched."

To be honest, Gudako didn't really trust the two guys who suddenly took her away, but she couldn't completely distrust them either, so she simply gathered information on her own.

There is one more thing, but this is related to Gudako herself.

As the Chaldea Master, she has experienced many Singularities and Lostbelts, and naturally knows many Servants, and she also interacts with those Servants.

In addition, her unique background led her to know a lot of different information and a basic line of logic.

It's hard to say whether there's a problem with Heroic Spirits, but those who aren't Heroic Spirits definitely have a problem.

Coincidentally, Gudako's special identity grants her the intuition to sense whether someone is a Heroic Spirit. We won't discuss how she acquired it or how she possesses it for now, but she certainly does have it.

"It's okay~ It's okay~ We can do it this way here~"

Gudako's eyes darted around; she seemed to know something, but chose not to share it.

"Alright, let's go out to eat!"

Changing the subject, Gudako led the way out to find food. After learning from the administrator where the shopping street was, she ran off without giving the others a chance to ask.

This unusual scene made Leonardo da Vinci frown, but he didn't take the trust he had always placed in him to heart, and just hoped that nothing would go wrong later.

In the commercial street of Trading City No. 5, the Chaldea group, led by Gudako, wandered around and, at Oberon's suggestion, experienced various different kinds of food.

"Oh! This tastes really good!"

"Mmm, it's really delicious, senpai!"

"This is pretty good too. I didn't expect these fairies to be such good cooks. Not bad at all!"

Gudako exclaimed in admiration, her eyes darting around, as did Da Vinci and Mashu.

There was a special atmosphere among them, one that was hard to describe.

After finishing their meal, the group didn't wander around but quickly returned to their overnight rooms arranged by the agency, with the men and women separated into two separate rooms.

In the girls' bedroom, Da Vinci went to take a shower first, Mashu checked the room, and Gudako sat on the bed enjoying a steaming ice cream.

"Ah~woo~"

Gudako spooned the ice cream into her mouth, her eyes fixed on the dwindling amount of ice cream, until it was all gone.

Looking up, I saw Da Vinci had just come out, her hair wet and steaming. Mashu was gone; there was some noise in the bathroom, so she must have gone in to take a shower.

"Da Vinci-chan, come here~"

Gudako picked up the hairdryer and shook it, and Da Vinci was clearly taken aback.

"What's wrong with you today? Not only did you not shower with Mashu, but you even had to blow-dry my hair."

Da Vinci was complaining, but he still sat down in front of Gudako with a stool and quietly enjoyed the help he received.

"You've been really strange today. First, you inexplicably became stubborn and didn't fully trust either side, then you suddenly came up with this request. The whole process was full of oddities. You've been really strange today, Gudako~"

Da Vinci closed his eyes and spoke softly, seemingly not wanting Mashu and the others to hear.

Gudako paused for a few seconds before returning to normal, without affecting her work as a hairdryer.

"Da Vinci is different. I felt it was different from the moment I arrived here. I didn't feel it much in the forest, but it became more obvious after I came to this trading city."

"This place is different from anything I've experienced before. Neither singularities nor Lostbelts can compare to this place."

Gudako muttered softly, her tone filled with doubt and confusion.

She didn't understand why this place was different from the singularities and Lostbelts she had encountered before.

She didn't understand why she felt relaxed here.

She didn't understand why her heart had suddenly calmed down, instead of the anxiety and unease she used to feel.

She really doesn't understand.

"...As the last Master who has experienced the darkest period, I hope you will trust your intuition and wisdom, which are the keys to your many times saving the world."

"It's just that we know too little right now. Perhaps we can wait and see. Time should give us the answer we want."

Da Vinci turned around, gently stroked his orange hair, and shared his opinion.

"Really? By the way, Da Vinci-chan has really shrunk a lot."

"? That's not very polite of you to say that again."

"Hehe, I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to find Mashu!"

"Mash, let's take a bath together!"

"Ah! Senior, you suddenly rushed in again. I thought you didn't want to shower together today. You didn't respond when I called you just now."

"Oh~~~ Is Mashu lonely~"

"No way!!"

"Hehehe~ I won't let you get away with this! I'll give you a back scrub!"

"Ah! Senior!"

Da Vinci rested his chin on his hand, listened to the commotion around him, a slight smile appearing on his lips. His gaze drifted to the clothes he had taken off beside him, stared at them for a moment, and then looked away.

"Forget it~"

In the next room, Tristan and Oberon didn't have much to say to each other. They simply decided who would take a shower first and then went about their own business.

Oberon showered first, and then Tristan took off his clothes. After taking off his coat, he wore a very special shirt. How special? It was white with a chibi-style portrait of a certain character printed on it.

blonde hair, blue and white armor, long ahoge (a type of hair sticking up), holding a large bowl of rice in her hands.

"What's wrong?" Tristan asked, sensing the gaze.

"No, it's nothing, I just didn't expect you to be wearing this kind of clothes."

"is it?"

"Well, after all, you seem... very upright."

"It won't affect anything. By the way, would you be interested in learning more about this character?"

Tristan carefully took off his clothes and put them away. It was only then that Oberon realized that there was a cleaning magic on the shirt!

Good grief, they even have to deal with a piece of clothing!

"Perhaps... if you're not busy, you can tell me."

Oberon thought that getting closer to her wasn't a bad thing, but who would have thought that Tristan would turn around instantly upon hearing this, his eyes filled with passion, his breathing becoming heavy, and a different kind of flush appearing on his face.

"Hehe, you really want to know? Then I'll have to tell you all about what it means to be the King of Britain, the most upright knight in the world, King Arthur!"

"Come on, come on! I won't let you sleep tonight!"

Like a crazy fan, Tristan unleashed a completely different kind of knightly and ruthless energy, grabbing Oberon and starting to chatter on without even taking a bath.

The story begins with the knight's adventure and continues until dawn the next day, when Gudako comes to knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock, Lord Tristan, Oberon, wake up and have breakfast!"

"Sigh, it looks like we won't be able to finish talking today, but it's okay, I'll talk to you about it properly tonight."

Tristan, still wanting more, quickly took a shower and got dressed. Oberon's eyes revealed helplessness; what a mess this was.

But it doesn't seem like a bad thing. After all, it has improved the relationship. Besides, how long can a story about a knight king take? It can be finished in another night.

"Let's hurry up and have breakfast! I heard they have some really good, huge steamed buns there!"

"After we finish eating, let's get ready and start selecting teammates. Let's try to make some progress today!"
