"…"
For a time, Vera fell silent.
Because she had seen Richard do too many outrageous things before, she had a preconceived notion that he was absurd and ridiculous.
But in fact, he was the former King of Britain.
An existence in the same position as Moran.
His vision and experience are by no means what they seem on the surface, and his essence is also a monster that ordinary people cannot understand.
She underestimated this King of Britain.
However, Richard did not maintain this majestic appearance for long, and then showed a bright smile again.
There was no trace of danger on him.
If it weren't for Richard's keen insight just now, they would probably continue to think that the other party was a carefree servant.
"To be honest, I can't see any appearance of a heroic spirit in you at all. I always feel that you are too lax…"
The young policeman who spoke was John.
Because he had been focused on the battle with Alcides before being swallowed by the black mist, he did not pay attention to the battle between Richard and Gilgamesh.
Therefore, he was fighting against the enemy he had fought against.
After comparing Moran, Alcides, the female assassin, and others, his mentality was very frivolous and lacked a sense of tension.
"Hey! John, come back!"
"Too rash! The other party is the King of Britain!"
"What if you are seen as provoking him! He is the same type of monster who broke into our police station! If he gets upset, and fights us here…"
The surrounding police officers showed horrified expressions.
They were not as carefree as John.
Every time they survived, they were filled with lingering fear, afraid of falling into the abyss if they were not careful.
Brave men like John are ultimately a minority.
However, instead of John's words being seen as a provocation, Richard fell into a daze.
"Brother is always like this."
"He rampages on the battlefield like a demon, but he's always so lax and careless usually!"
"Brother, do you have any awareness of being a king!"
Extremely familiar words emerged from his mind.
Those were memories from Richard's lifetime.
In his lifetime, his relatives had said such things to him.
Thinking of this, the corners of Richard's mouth turned up slightly.
"…What's your name?"
"Uh… John Wingard, just call me John."
Hearing this, Richard's eyes widened.
His smile also became brighter.
He had noticed Moran's involvement during the jailbreak at the police station and the battle with Gilgamesh at the church.
Combined with the information from Britain.
He had long speculated that Moran valued the police force.
Now, seeing the policeman John.
He understood why Moran did this.
This is indeed a promising talent.
"I see… so you're John!"
"…Huh?"
"It's fate, John, let's get along! Just consider it me making friends with you while I'm relaxing!
Don't worry, we in Britain don't intend to be enemies with you, but if you want to be enemies with us, then it's hard to say… I hope we don't get to that point."
Richard walked over to the police team in a very familiar manner.
Moreover, he patted John on the back very affectionately, as if the two were good brothers who had gone through life and death together.
The police team looked dumbfounded.
–Bro, we are still competitors in the Holy Grail War, at least give everyone some face, okay?
Although the police thought so.
However, they really didn't want to fight Britain.
The scene where the Chelon Canticle Brigade summoned a barrier and blocked Alcides' arrow unscathed was seen by the police team.
If they had blocked that arrow.
I am afraid that it would be impossible without paying the price of casualties.
If a battle were to break out here with Richard and the Chelon Canticle Brigade.
Then the police team would almost certainly be defeated.
All they could do was groan without pain, which was the last bit of comfort they could get.
In this super-standard Holy Grail War.
They are ultimately too weak.
When Britain announced that it had no hostility, the hostility in the eyes of the police team decreased a lot after hearing it.
However, basic vigilance remained.
They could not forget Moran's rampage in the police station, and everyone had a psychological shadow of this King of Britain.
Afterwards, the two sides temporarily established a truce agreement.
The most important issue at the moment is still this false world. They must get out of it before they can continue to participate in the Holy Grail War.
This is a temporary alliance.
Richard, as the person in charge of promoting the alliance.
He asked the police team a crucial question.
"The little girl you have been trying to take in and protect… is called Tsubaki, right?"
"It seems that even in this Snowfield City, your British intelligence network is everywhere…"
"Hehe, thank you for the compliment. I only heard about it recently. Although I heard about it… but according to the current situation, the culprit who trapped us in this world… may also be that little girl Tsubaki's servant, right?"
Several police officers narrowed their eyes.
Some of them had already guessed what Richard was going to say, and the police officers who were prepared closed their eyes slightly.
People like John, who only realized it now.
They all showed various expressions in an instant.
"Of course, I'm just saying one possibility, and there may be other people who created this false world. However, in war, no matter how small the possibility is, it cannot be ignored… If that little girl is the culprit, can you kill her?"
Richard launched a sharp question.
He had also noticed the performance of the police team during the battle with Gilgamesh.
If these people are the ones watched by the late king.
Then he must not treat it lightly.
This is a manifestation of respect.
Sure enough, the police team fell silent.
They, who had decided to protect Tsubaki Kuruoka from the beginning, the police who fought fiercely with the demons to save the child.
They cannot point their guns at the child.
However, the reaction of the police made Richard smile with satisfaction, he saw a good answer.
