Anchor, Stop Pretending, You're in Chaldea - Chapter 101

“Doctor, have you found anything?”

“Even if you say that…”

Dr. Romani, projected within, sighed wearily.

“We’ve been working overtime here.”

“Yeah, Romani is almost drowned out by the complaints from the staff. Even I was pulled in to help.”

Da Vinci’s voice of complaint came through the communicator.

“But everyone’s efforts have paid off. We’ve detected several high-density Magical Energy reactions near your location, presumably Servants.”

“It seems that the Roman coalition forces are still searching for our whereabouts, but we should be safe here for the time being.”

Waver said calmly.

“After all, we have the Bounded Field set up by me and Onii-sama. Any ordinary person who steps into it will be immediately disoriented.”

Reines stood at the entrance, touching the surrounding stone wall with her hand.

The stone wall emitted a faint glow, showing a reaction of Magical Energy.

“If forceful attacks are used, it might even cause spatial distortion and the possibility of being thrown into another space.”

“But hiding here will only allow the situation to continue to deteriorate.”

Waver looked at the projected image of Dr. Romani on the communicator.

“Has Chaldea found any other developments?”

“We’ve also observed a Servant reaction, which started retreating towards the northwest direction after you left the battlefield yesterday.”

“That’s it!”

Waver immediately stood up.

“The only one who would go against that Magus’s command is probably that king.”

“That reaction is heading towards Gaul, but it seems to have stopped near Massilia.”

“Massilia?”

After hearing the name of the city, Waver’s brow furrowed again.

“That place used to be the base of the rebel army, and there were even two Servants who spontaneously fought against the united forces. But they were recently eliminated by the united forces, who have now taken over the defense.”

After hearing Waver’s words, Bai Qiu also furrowed his brow.

He vaguely remembered that Boudica and Spartacus, who were helping Nero, were there before, but they were also defeated by the enemy.

“Although we don’t know what stopped the king there, it’s best for us to quickly go and join him. To win this impossible war, we need to expand our forces as much as possible.”

In response to Waver’s gaze, Bai Qiu immediately nodded.

“Everyone, get ready to leave from here and head to Massilia!”

“But Senpai, the area outside this region is already surrounded by the united forces, and if we want to leave, we’ll inevitably face a fierce battle.”

Mashu quickly reminded Bai Qiu.

There is still a large group of Roman united forces guarding the area.

“Well, at a time like this, we just need to create a diversion.”

Reines spoke up.

“Send a Servant out to distract the enemy, while the rest of us quietly escape from the other side, right?”

“What a clever plan, Ojou-sama!”

Trimmau chimed in.

“But I’m sure Onii-sama has already thought of this ordinary strategy, right?”

In response to Reines’ gaze, Waver directly denied it.

“No need. The enemy’s encirclement isn’t impenetrable. We just need to focus on a small-scale assault.”

“Assault?!”

Mordred, triggered by the keyword, suddenly appeared.

“Master! Are we getting ready for an assault?! (Chewing)”

Mordred still had a skewer of cooked meat in hand, constantly stuffing it into his mouth.

“Mordred, hold on a moment. We’re still discussing.”

“Hey, that guy over there always has a bitter grudge on his face.”

Mordred looked at Waver.

“Who’s the old man! I’m not even thirty yet!!!”

Waver responded irritably.

“If there’s a need for a surprise attack, leave it to me. It’s something I’m very good at. (Chewing)”

“I will consider it…”

Facing Mordred, Waver could only nod for now.

“Well then, I’ll go over and eat the rest of the barbecue. It’s a shame to waste, it’s common sense in Britain.”

Then Mordred sat back by the bonfire and started eating the barbecue with gusto.

Wait… Is this really common sense in Britain?

“With such a reliable general, Kongming-san should be relieved, right?”

Looking at Mordred like this, Reines jokingly said.

“Powerful generals are usually difficult to control, just like my disciples, always causing me to worry.”

But Waver shook his head.

“Too bad Gray isn’t here, otherwise, let Master find a way to summon Gray? After all, both of us siblings have appeared.”

A mischievous smile appeared on Reines’ face.

“Do you want to involve Gray too!!!”

Waver’s face showed an unusual expression of anger.

“Of course not, I was just joking. After all, Gray and that king have a close connection, and her existence in this era is particularly weak.”

Seeing that his adopted brother was really angry, Reines finally stopped joking.

“Speaking of which, compared to Onii-sama’s plan, my plan must be better.”

“But this plan requires a Servant to take risks and may be trapped, and in the worst case, may be killed.”

Waver calmly analyzed.

Then he looked around.

Mordred does meet the criteria, but this rebellious knight is too emotional and not suitable.

The black Avenger standing guard at the door is definitely powerful enough, but even harder to control than the rebellious knight, also not suitable.

The remaining candidate is Mashu with a shield, although she is a suitable choice, the young boy also needs someone to protect him.

The last remaining candidate is himself, could it be that Reines wants him, a pseudo-Servant, to be the bait?

“So, we need a Servant who can adapt quickly, preferably a Rider with high mobility.”

“——————?!”

Everyone looked at Reines in disbelief, especially Waver, who widened his eyes in an instant and showed a rare expression of panic.

The one thing he didn’t consider was his own younger sister in front of him.

“Could it be, Reines, you want…”

“That’s right, that’s what I mean.”

Reines smiled and nodded.

“Whether it’s Onii-sama or Kongming-san, they should both understand that I am the most suitable one to carry out this plan.”

“Even so, I absolutely can’t let you do it alone…”

Waver hurriedly tried to stop Reines, but his sister blocked his words with a finger.

“It seems that in Onii-sama’s eyes, I’m still just a child. This is the perfect opportunity for me to show Onii-sama what mature ladylike manners are.”
