Type-Moon: I! The Magic King! Am going to marry Tiamat!

Page 45

The Lion King's lips twitched slightly as he looked at Nero's displeased expression.

Actually, she was also very unhappy. She and Nero were incompatible, and she was forced to use all sorts of abilities, which made her feel frustrated.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, the Lion King was startled, realizing that the contract between himself and his Master had been severed.

"Is there a problem with Kiritsugu?"

The Lion King also tried to contact Kiritsugu Emiya, but it was to no avail.

At the same time, he also felt that his magic power could no longer be replenished.

“This can’t go on, we have to retreat.” The prince made a decision instantly.

"Trying to run away? You think you can come and go as you please? There's no such thing as a free lunch. You'd better ask me if I agree first!"

Nero also noticed that the Lion King's fighting spirit was waning, and instantly guessed that the Lion King wanted to run away, so he immediately rushed forward.

She gathered a whirlwind and attached it to the Holy Lance, then suddenly thrust it at Nero from a distance.

"Wind King's Hammer!"

Nero retreated instantly; lacking strong defensive capabilities, she dared not take the enemy's attack head-on.

BOMMMM!!

A real gale slammed into the ground, shattering it and kicking up a cloud of smoke.

When Nero burst out of the smoke, he only saw the Lion King's back as he ran into the distance, and then vanished into spirit form in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it! She got away."

Nero glared through gritted teeth in the direction where the Lion King had disappeared, silently making a mental note of this debt, determined to get revenge someday.

She was enjoying a peaceful time with Marne at home, the atmosphere was just getting nice, when the Lion King's sudden attack interrupted her, which made Miss Nero very angry.

A short while later, Mar and Eng also returned.

Seeing that Nero was alone, he asked, "Where is she?"

"Let her get away."

"That's a real shame, I had prepared a surprise for her."

Marne touched a Command Seal on his left hand, feeling a pang of regret.

Nero then noticed the new Command Seal in Marne's hand: "Oh, is that her Command Seal? Player, you've taken care of her Master? But why is there only one?"

"Yes, her Master is dead, but he was cunning. Before coming here, he stripped himself of the other two, and if nothing unexpected happens, they should be in the hands of the Irisviel we met before."

"No wonder she ran so fast, she was in a hurry to go back and contract a new Master."

Nero then understood why the Lion King had run away in such a hurry.

So it turns out her Master is gone, and without a supply of magic, her time in this world is counting down. She needs to contract a new Master as soon as possible, otherwise she will have to return to the Throne of Heroes when her time is up.

"However, it's a real pity. If Yu had stalled her a little longer, he could have eliminated her."

"Well, this is pretty good as it is. With this Command Seal, I'll definitely be able to take care of her next time I encounter her."

"Ah."

Just as Marne and Nero had expected, the Lion King ran back to Einzbern Castle in the suburbs, found Irisviel who possessed the remaining two Command Seals, signed a contract, and made her her new Master.

"I see. Is that person dead?"

After listening to the Lion King's account, Irisviel understood what had happened.

However, there was no reaction to Kiritsugu Emiya's death.

If Marx and Engels knew, they would be very surprised.

The relationship between Irisviel and Kiritsugu Emiya doesn't seem to be what he knows.

Yes, in this world, Kiritsugu Emiya did not marry into the Einzbern family, but rather cooperated with them in a form of employment.

Therefore, Irisviel has no relation to Kiritsugu Emiya; they are merely collaborators in this Holy Grail War.

Of course, Ilya still exists, but she was born to Irisviel alone.

What is this operation?

It's actually very simple, similar to in vitro fertilization.

Irisviel, who was still learning about common sense at the time, developed a longing for a child after learning about a different way of life than the Einzbern homunculi.

Then, she secretly took an embryo from the artificial insemination chamber in Einzbern, implanted it into her body, and carried the pregnancy for ten months in a normal manner, eventually giving birth to Ilya.

Therefore, Illya has no relation to Kiritsugu Emiya.

If Marx and Engels knew this, they would probably be very happy.

After all, Irisviel is a popular character, and he likes her quite a bit.

Back then, I posted over a dozen comments saying "Wife! I love you!"

It's a bit of a shame that the other person was already married, so Ma En didn't show it when they first met.

Since he couldn't even handle Nero, he had even less confidence to poach other people's employees.

Of course, there's also the constraint of some moral observations, feeling that it's not quite right for NTLs to act like Lao Wang (a euphemism for a prostitute).

But if Irisviel is still single, then it's fine!

However, Marx and Engels are unaware of all this yet.

He was still thinking that Irisviel would hate him to death for killing Kiritsugu Emiya.

Well, Marx and Engels' melancholy at the time was actually due to this point. He was a pervert, but he just didn't want to admit it.

"By the way, where's Maimi? She should be with that person, right?"

Compared to Kiritsugu Emiya's death, Irisviel was more concerned about his assistant, Maiya Hisau.

Unlike her indifference towards Kiritsugu Emiya, Irisviel actually had some affection for Maiya Hisau.

The main reason is that when it was initially decided that she would be partnered with Kiritsugu Emiya, Maiya Hisau had served as a liaison for a period of time with Irisviel.

Therefore, Irisviel was actually more familiar with and closer to Hisau Maiya than to Emiya Kiritsugu.

At the same time, Hisau Maiya was Irisviel's only way of understanding the outside world at that time, and also the person outside the Einzbern family whom Irisviel had the longest contact with.

Therefore, for Irisviel, Hisau Maiya's existence is like that of Sera and Lyselle in Ilya's future life—a trustworthy and reliable close person.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know. I was in a precarious situation at the time and had to come back as soon as possible, so I didn't notice."

The Lion King knew that Irisviel and Hisa Maiya's relationship was unusual, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed.

"It's alright, it's not your fault, Lia. I'll try to contact her."

Chapter 63 Exclusive Title? Void Gold!

However, before she, who was terrible with machines, could figure out how to make a call, Hisayu Mami called back on her own.

After another flurry of panic, with the help of the Lion King, who possessed modern common sense, he finally got through on the phone.

"Moshi Moshi, is that Maimi?"

“It’s me, Irisviel. Listen to me first. Kiritsugu is missing. Our operation was exposed, and the enemy attacked us. Kiritsugu wanted to fight back, but after the enemy came to our ambush location, I fainted. It seems I was under some kind of magic spell. I just woke up now. There’s only a mess at the scene, and there’s no trace of Kiritsugu. I don’t know if he was captured by the enemy.”

"..."

"Hello? Are you listening? Irisviel?"

"Yes, I'm here. Um, Mami, calm down and listen to me."

"Hmm? Okay, go ahead."

"Emiya Kiritsugu is dead."

"..."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, which made Irisviel and the Lion King sense something was wrong. They quickly asked, "Hello? Maimi, are you alright? Hello?"

"..."

Seeing that Irisviel's inquiries went unanswered, the Lion King took the phone and said, "Hello? Maiya, where are you? We're coming to pick you up right now."

"..."

Hisayuu Maiya, on the other end of the phone, remained stunned for a long time.

For her, Kiritsugu Emiya was extremely important.

Having grown up deprived of her humanity, she initially lacked even a sense of self.

After being rescued by Kiritsugu Emiya, she was kept by his side as his assistant and gradually her condition improved.

For her, Kiritsugu Emiya was everything.

If we were to compare her to a tool, then Kiritsugu Emiya would be the user.

If we use the analogy of a Servant, then Kiritsugu Emiya is the Master.

Kiritsugu Emiya can be considered her master, her superior, her caretaker, and the reason for her existence.

And now, Kiritsugu Emiya has suddenly died?!

This was completely unacceptable to her, and she instantly felt that her life had become bleak.

“Maiya!”

The loud shouts from Irisviel over the phone brought Hisayu Maiya back to her senses.

"I'm here."

"Phew~ You scared me to death, I thought you were going to... Never mind, don't think too much about it, just come back, I'll wait for you."

"Ah."

Hearing this instruction brought Hisayu Maiya back to her senses for a moment.
