Anchor, Stop Pretending, You're in Chaldea - Chapter 33

“Senpai, Miss Johanna successfully expelled the invading Servant!”

Mashu happily said to Bai Qiu.

“Hmph, if it were me, I would have finished it off in just a few moves,” Mordred complained when she realized she didn’t have a chance to go on stage.

Emiya Kiritsugu, lurking in a dead corner not far away, also put down his gun.

“That radiance, that figure, that is the glory of the Lord!”

“The Lord has responded to the Pope’s prayers!”

“This country has long been plunged into darkness, and only this radiance can dispel all darkness.”

The soldiers dropped their weapons and devoutly knelt near the city gate, bowing towards Johanna not far away.

“Sorry, the responsibility to defeat the ‘Dragon Witch’ is now in your hands…”

Outside the city gate, both Martha and the Evil Dragon Tarasque had completely disappeared.

The only words left by Martha lingered in Johanna’s ears.

“Martha-sama…”

Johanna clasped her hands tightly against her chest and bowed her head in devout prayer.

“Fear not, Martha-sama, the radiance of the Lord is with us, and I will defeat the ‘Dragon Witch’ who has brought this country into a war!”

“*Chirp…*”

Tonbi, by Johanna’s side, also lowered its head, seemingly praying alongside its master.

“You’ve done well, Johanna,” someone approached from behind her.

It was Bai Qiu.

“Driving away the enemy’s Servant on your own, good job.”

Even though she heard praise from her Master, Johanna couldn’t feel happy at the moment.

“Master, I received some bad news from Saint Martha.”

She had to inform her Master about the identity of the evil dragon and the fact that the dragon slayer had been eliminated by the witch.

“We can discuss that later.”

Bai Qiu, contrary to his usual self, didn’t continue listening and instead stood where Martha had just disappeared.

This should be the right place.

[Please be aware, using special summoning will summon the Heroic Spirit before they return to the Heroic Spirit Throne.]

[This Heroic Spirit will retain all memories from this Singularity, but there may be some risks, so please be cautious, Host.]

After hearing the system prompt, Bai Qiu pondered for a moment.

No wonder it only cost 10,000 points to summon her, she was waiting for me here.

If the other person is an Anti-Hero, forcibly summoning her in this way would probably result in being hit by a Noble Phantasm from behind and be deemed as suicide.

Bai Qiu sighed.

I thought I could turn the journey to repair the Singularity into a Pokémon Master challenge using this method.

It seems like I’ll have to temporarily give up on this idea.

Martha will become an enemy this time because she was summoned by Jeanne Alter and has Madness Enhancement attached.

As long as I summon her again, she should most likely assist me, so I don’t have to worry about that.

It’s just her class when she materializes… most likely that one.

“System, consume points, perform a special summon!”

Bai Qiu no longer hesitated, after all, there is a time limit for special summoning.

[Beep beep – Command from the host confirmed.]

[Currently available for special summon – Martha.]

[Confirmed consumption of 10,000 points, special summon in progress!]

Bai Qiu reached out his hand and a silver magic circle slowly unfolded in front of him.

“Does Master plan to summon here?”

Johanna, upon seeing the summoning circle taking shape in front of Bai Qiu, immediately stood up and struck the ground with her Cross Staff.

The Magical Energy gathered in this Magecraft site began to flow into the summoning circle.

After absorbing this immense Magical Energy, without even chanting a spell, the figure of the Servant gradually appeared in the summoning circle.

The audience in the livestream room also watched this process with great interest.

“It seems like the streamer has mastered the trick and is summoning a Heroic Spirit again.”

“I hope it’s not a corrupted Heroic Spirit. Seriously, ever since I watched the streamer’s livestream, I’ve already ordered sunglasses.”

“You don’t understand. The romance of men is lightsabers and cannons!”

“With these special effects, if they summon a shiny gold one, won’t the screen explode?”

“Surely the production team has considered this issue. Just the cost of those flashy special effects would be astronomical.”

—————-

As they watched the figure of the Servant gradually become clear in the summoning circle, everyone turned their gaze towards it. Johanna, who was standing beside Bai Qiu, suddenly widened her eyes and exclaimed, “Martha… sama?”

The smoke in the summoning circle dispersed, revealing the Saint who had just left with regret. “Martha, reporting once again. Regardless of my appearance, I am still myself—I won’t be lost and will definitely save the world with you.”

At this moment, Martha had changed into a concise outfit that highlighted her figure. Her perfect body, coupled with her beautiful face, even momentarily stunned the viewers in the livestream room.

“Oh my, she actually came back!”
“Could it be that the streamer heard our request?”
“Impossible, this script was already written, it can’t be easily changed.”
“I understand, this must be a miracle! As long as we have hope, miracles can happen!!!”
“Tsk tsk tsk, look at that figure. Just by looking at Lady Saint, I can eat three bowls of rice tonight!”
“I now understand the joy of medieval Christians. If there was a church with a Popess and a Saint like this, I would work as a janitor in the church for a lifetime!”
“System message: ‘Incompetent Priest’ sends a golden cruise ship!”
“Comment: I want to confess. Streamer, may I ask how to come to your place?”
“System message: ‘Starting to worship today’ sends a rocket!”
“Comment: Long live Martha, the return of the moon’s history!”

————————

Bai Qiu, at this moment, was too preoccupied to pay attention to the gifts and barrage in the livestream room. His gaze involuntarily moved towards Martha.

The current Martha, who had removed most of her armor and only retained some defensive capabilities, was perfect in every way, with an impeccable figure that couldn’t be faulted.

“Master, thank you for summoning me here,” Martha looked at Bai Qiu and showed a grateful expression. “Let me use these hands to open the path for you, to atone for the mistakes I made here!”

As she said this, Martha involuntarily made a fist with her hands.

Seeing these fists that had subdued the Evil Dragon Tarasque, Bai Qiu suddenly snapped back to reality.

Oh no, I almost got influenced by Martha’s “divine physique”! I haven’t even provided her with Magical Energy, so I should be more cautious.

Saying that, Bai Qiu still sneakily glanced at Martha, letting out a sigh.

Such slender and well-proportioned legs, it’s a shame not to ride a tricycle with them…
