Anchor, Stop Pretending, You're in Chaldea - Chapter 107

“Is your company’s budget running out? Are you now riding on a horse-drawn cart?” a viewer commented.

“Shocking! A streamer travels around ancient Rome on a horse-drawn cart!” another viewer exclaimed.

“Hey, you upstairs, you really know how to come up with catchy titles,” someone replied.

“What about the big iron dragon? What happened to my huge iron dragon that consumes only 30 units of grass per hundred kilometers?” another viewer asked.

“Don’t worry, my friend. Right now it may look like a horse-drawn cart, but once the special effects come in, who knows what kind of fantastic creature it will transform into,” someone reassured.

“Oh, by the way, I’ve always wanted to ask if people in the highland regions all ride horses to go to school?” another viewer asked.

“Here we go again. Are people in Sichuan riding pandas to school?” someone sarcastically replied.

“It’s been three days already. Haven’t you reached the next shooting location yet?” a viewer impatiently asked.

Bai Qiu continued chatting with the audience in the livestream as usual.

With the help of Dr. Romani’s observations from Chaldea, they managed to avoid many battles along the way. Even small enemy forces that pursued them were easily defeated by Jeanne Alter and Mordred.

Mordred and Jeanne Alter, now equipped with their new mounts, were always the first to spot enemy movements. As a result, they never had to engage in direct combat with other Servants.

Waver and Reines showed great interest in Bai Qiu’s livestream performance, especially Reines, who was always curious and would often pester Bai Qiu. Even Mashu, who was driving the horse-drawn cart, would occasionally cast worried glances at them.

However, when they learned that Bai Qiu came from mainland China, both Waver and Reines immediately showed a sense of “Oh, so it’s that Magecraft from China” and “I just can’t understand it.” They stopped asking further questions.

Even Waver started to come up with unrealistic magical speculations about Bai Qiu’s summoning magic being a variation of “Xian Art.” It seemed that even Lord El-Melloi II, as a senior teacher at the Clock Tower, knew very little about Magecraft from mainland China. Thanks to that, Bai Qiu managed to get away with a vague explanation.

“Everyone, we’re almost at Masiglal!” Dr. Romani’s voice came through the communication device, alerting everyone.

After three days of continuous travel, they finally arrived at Masiglal.

In the midst of the hilly terrain, there was a narrow valley, and in that valley, a fortified base could be vaguely seen.

“According to the information I received, this place used to be occupied by a rebel army, but it has been cleared by the coalition forces. We don’t know what’s inside now,” Bai Qiu reported.

Waver immediately looked at Dr. Romani on Bai Qiu’s communication device.

“Can you find out where the previous reaction came from?”

“Just a moment… I’ve found it!!!” Dr. Romani typed on the keyboard, and data appeared on the screen.

“We’ve detected two strong Magical Energy reactions in the valley ahead, indicating a battle between Servants!”

Upon hearing Dr. Romani’s words, Waver’s eyes widened.

“We need to go support King. He may be in danger!”

…

“Clang—!!!”

In the dilapidated camp in the valley, a red-haired youth was already engaged in a fierce battle with a bulky man.

“I never expected Alexander the Great to be able to manifest as a different Saint Graph Heroic Spirit from his teenage years. He truly deserves the title of the Conqueror King,” Caesar praised.

In response to Caesar’s words, the red-haired youth turned his head slightly.

“This is our first encounter. If possible, I don’t want to become enemies with Julius Caesar either.”

“We were never enemies to begin with.”

Caesar inserted the golden sword in his hand into the ground and extended his hands, saying:

“We, as Servants summoned by the Holy Grail, are meant to serve Rome. Even though your strategist has betrayed us, I still don’t believe that you will betray us. As long as we return to Rome together and explain to ‘that person’, we will surely be forgiven.”

After seeing Caesar’s actions, the young emperor maintained his battle stance.

“Sorry, but I cannot trust someone who suddenly attacks me. My teacher said that among all the ’emperors’ in the coalition forces, your words are the least trustworthy.”

“I’m a bit hurt by that evaluation. I specially rushed here to explain to you first. If you insist on being an enemy of Rome, then there’s nothing I can do.”

Caesar shrugged his shoulders.

“For ‘that person’, for Rome, I must eliminate you!”

Not only Caesar, but the thousands of elite soldiers behind him were also ready for battle.

The young emperor tightened the reins as Bucephalus let out a roar, preparing to fight alongside his master!

“Roarrrrrr!!!”

Suddenly, a burst of flames descended from the sky, forcing Caesar to retreat.

“Finally, I found you.”

Jeanne Alter walked out from the swirling waves of air, looked around, and immediately spotted the agile plump figure.

“I finally found you again!!!”

Black flames shot out directly from Jeanne Alter’s sword, emitting a scorching light!

“Isn’t this the little girl I saw on the battlefield before?”

Caesar blocked the black flames with his golden sword and then calmly said:

“It’s been a few days, and you seem to have become even more beautiful.”

“I’ll burn that mouth of yours to ashes!!!”

Before Caesar could make a move, Jeanne Alter charged at him with her sword!

Watching all this unfold, the young emperor, who had no idea what was happening, remained in his observant posture.

But when he saw that familiar figure, he immediately understood.

“Teacher!!!”

The young emperor pulled the reins, leading Bucephalus away from the battlefield and coming to Waver’s side.

“Sorry, I left without notifying you.”

Seeing the young emperor’s arrival, Waver shook his head apologetically.

“Teacher, what are you saying? I’ve always trusted you from the beginning.”

The young emperor showed a smile of trust.

“But it seems like you’ve brought back quite a few friends, Teacher.”

“Oh? So you’re the ‘king’ of Onii-sama? You seem quite weak, but you have a handsome appearance.”

At some point, Reines, who had come along, looked up and down at the young emperor.

“Teacher, who is this…”

“Ah… sorry, King, this is my adopted sister.”

Waver desperately gestured to Reines.

“Teacher’s adopted sister? Then she’s my friend too.”

“Oh~~~ I see.”

Reines looked at the young emperor with an interesting gaze and then laughed.

“Anyway, let’s get along well.”

“So, who are these people?”

The young emperor looked at Bai Qiu and Mashu.

“King, please let me explain the situation. These people are…”

Before Waver could explain, he was interrupted.

“Sorry to interrupt your conversation!”

Suddenly, a warning from Dr. Romani popped up on the communication device.

“But there are suddenly several Servants detected in the enemy camp. Mordred and one of them are confirmed to be engaged in battle! And there are four riders charging in your direction!”

“Four riders?!”
