"Hehehe, my apologies, I'm truly sorry I haven't disappeared yet."
Mordred gritted her teeth as she spoke to Mo Shuying, thinking there was something wrong with the man in front of her!
She'd been careless. She thought this man, who enjoyed playing with Astolfo, wouldn't be interested in women, but now it seemed she couldn't be so certain!
"..."
Mo Shuying looked bewildered. Had he offended this girl somehow?
"What I mean is, the Singularity is about to return to normal, so you should disappear soon, right?"
Speaking of which, the Servants of these Singularities are all summoned by the Holy Grail or anchored by the world's will. Now that the Holy Grail is gone and the Singularity's distortions are beginning to resolve, Servants still within this Singularity, if they don't have a skill for independent action, will soon vanish.
"Hmph, I can probably hold on for half a day."
Mordred replied. She could indeed last for half a day. Of course, there would be no problem if she chose to return now.
"Oh."
Mo Shuying simply replied.
Mordred's eye twitched.
"I'm going to disappear in half a day! And all you say is 'oh'? Hmph! Scumbag! Father, let's go! I'll take you around. I have a friend waiting for me at the base, and I need to go tell him."
Mordred said to Black Lancer Alter. Black Lancer Alter nodded and followed Mordred, leaving Mo Shuying looking dumbfounded.
"...How am I a scumbag? All I said was 'oh'! And that makes me a scumbag? Do you believe me if I say next time I summon Flame Head with a speaker and give you a whole set of 'oh oh ohs'! Sigh, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea..."
A speechless Mo Shuying followed them. His duty for these three days was to follow Black Lancer Alter, and he couldn't let her get too far.
Mordred led Black Lancer Alter and Mo Shuying to her former base, a large library.
At this moment, Mordred had changed into a short top and shorts. Without her armor, Little Mo had a youthful, girlish feel, though still with a hint of rebelliousness.
Black Lancer Alter was also in a black evening gown, wearing black high heels that attracted the attention of countless people around her.
This outfit was woven from Mana. Despite its thinness, its defensive power was not low.
Mo Shuying, dressed in casual clothes, thought this from behind.
Good heavens, the surrounding Londoners, seeing the light of day again, looked at Black Lancer Alter with admiration and awe. The formal evening gown looked so natural and casual on Black Lancer Alter.
Only Mo Shuying was thinking about how less clothing meant higher defense, which was just incredible.
"Father! This is the place."
Mordred led the two into the grand library as if no one else was around. She merely released a bit of Mana, and soon a handsome man with rose-gold hair quickly approached.
"Mordred! It's so good that you're okay! Uh..."
The newcomer had a smile on his face, but then he suddenly saw the two people behind Mordred and froze.
"Jekyll, let me introduce you. This is my father, the great King Arthur. And this... is a scumbag named Mo Shuying."
Mo Shuying: "..."
"Father, this is my friend, Henry Jekyll. He's a scholar."
Mordred introduced Henry to Black Lancer Alter. Mo Shuying muttered under his breath from behind.
"He's also a Servant, you know."
Mordred glared at Mo Shuying, who immediately turned his head to observe the magnificent library.
"So it's the legendary King Arthur! It's a great honor! I am Henry Jekyll, and I'm very happy to meet you."
The very gentlemanly Henry bowed as he spoke. Black Lancer Alter extended a hand, motioning for him to rise.
"Mordred, can you feel that this Singularity has been repaired? If you didn't come back, I'd have to go out and look for you, because I feel like I won't last much longer."
Henry's Mana reserves were very low. If Mordred hadn't returned, he might not have even gotten to see her one last time.
"Yes, we've solved all the problems. Everything is recovering now, Henry. I'm here to say goodbye too. It was really fun teaming up with you this time."
Mordred showed a canine tooth, smiling brightly.
Henry also smiled, bowing again.
"Me too. I'm relieved to see you're okay. It seems the time for farewell has come. I hope we'll have a chance to meet again."
With that, Henry transformed into specks of light and vanished.
Black Lancer Alter watched the spot where Henry disappeared, then suddenly turned to Mordred and said,
"This fellow isn't bad. If you like him, this King has no objections."
Black Lancer Alter's words immediately made Mordred blush crimson.
"What are you saying, Father! I don't like pretty-boy types, hmph. Jekyll and I are just very good friends. You shouldn't get the wrong idea."
Mordred vehemently denied it. Mo Shuying rubbed his chin and nodded from behind.
He thought that Mordred probably preferred older men, which was a characteristic of girls who lacked paternal affection from a young age.
"Alright, I don't have much time left either. Or perhaps I shouldn't bother you two and just quietly disappear here."
Mordred calmed her shyness and smiled at the two of them.
Black Lancer Alter opened her mouth, but before she could speak, Mo Shuying already said,
"Don't joke around. With your personality, if you somehow decided to come back and felt we abandoned you, wouldn't you blow up this whole library? Go on, go on~ Let's walk around some more together. Since when did you like quiet?"
"..."
Mordred glared at Mo Shuying, feeling quite annoyed. The key was how accurate Mo Shuying's words were.
"Hmm, let's walk around together. Usually, I don't ask you to accompany me, but this time, stay with me until the end."
Black Lancer Alter spoke, and Mordred was so excited she almost trembled.
"Yes! Father!"
Just today, Mordred seemed to suddenly understand what paternal love was. What? Artoria had been good to her before too? How to put it, that felt more like maternal love.
And so, the trio began to wander around London. It must be said that the people of London were still quite optimistic. Faced with damaged buildings everywhere, they didn't show much panic.
Actually, this was because the Singularity was recovering. Under mysterious power, once the Singularity safely recovered, they wouldn't even remember that a great war had once taken place here.
Finally.
Beside the sparkling River Thames, the three found a café that was surprisingly preparing to open.
Sitting by the river, drinking coffee, it was quite pleasant.
Black Lancer Alter looked at the people behind her, those who had survived the disaster with smiles on their faces. She took a small sip of coffee, then her eyes lit up—she liked the taste.
"Refill."
Seeing Black Lancer Alter finish her coffee, Mo Shuying called the waiter for a refill.
The waiter, walking over with coffee, suddenly paused. He remembered there had been three people sitting here before. How…
were there only two left?
