Shinji Matou At Your Service

Chapter 386: Selling Zig?

"I just know it was you who did it!"

After listening to Chiron's narration, Shinji couldn't help but raise his hand and give Astolfo a slap.

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Astolfo held his head, wailed, and apologized, all in one go. He was a hero among cute people.

"I forgive you."

Shinji shook his head and smiled bitterly, not bothering to argue with him.

Astolfo had this trait. No matter how naughty he was, it was hard for people to get angry with him. What he did this time was relatively minor. He had caused bigger troubles when he was alive and was even turned into a tree. But in the end, he was not punished and was still one of Charlemagne's twelve warriors.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that he never had the will to "do bad things" from the beginning to the end. Even if he lost his rationality, his instinct would still summarize and eliminate such behaviors as "doing bad things". So no matter how big the mess he caused, the result would never be too bad. Over time, Charlemagne, Roland and others also got used to it - first scold Astolfo like Shinji, and then help him clean up the mess.

"Well, let me see what kind of android can make Caster and you, a cross-dressing guy, fall in love with it."

Shinji teased as he walked over to the bed and looked closely at the boy on it.

Silver hair, red eyes, doll-like face. As expected of the Einzbern family's technology, even though it was made into a male, it still has a lot of Yustiza's shadow. However, because it is a mass-produced model for supply, it is not as finely made as Yustiza.

If Justisa scored a full score of 100, Sieg would score about 80 points. From this point of view, the production line created by Gold's fusion of the technologies of Einzbern and Mujik is still excellent.

The only pity is that because it is a mass-produced consumable, its lifespan is only three years. It is far inferior to the quality that Einzbern spent a huge amount of resources to carefully craft. Look at that old guy Yahad, he has lived for two hundred years and is still alive and kicking. He stepped onto the big stage of the magic world in this world, and he may also come out to cause trouble in another world, such as the expected fifth Holy Grail War.

"Then the question is, what should we do with this android? Leave it alone? Help Astolfo? Or give it to Caster?"

Shinji stood in front of the bed, quietly watching the sleeping android, calculating the gains and losses in his mind.

It was decided long ago that Siegfried would not be given the chance to dig out his heart and save people. Compared with the real Siegfried, the Ottoman who only had three minutes left was obviously more valuable.

As for Sieg's treatment, Shinji really didn't take it to heart. Life or death didn't matter to him. A powerless android was irrelevant to the overall situation.

But now that he has come to my door, I naturally can no longer ignore his existence.

Of the three options, leaving it alone was ruled out first. Without my intervention, it was highly likely that Siegfried would dig out his heart to save him.

All that's left is to choose between caster and Astolfo.

Caster, whose real name is Avisbron, also known as Solomon ibn Gabirol, was a poet and philosopher in the 11th century. Born in Malaga, Spain, he introduced the knowledge and wisdom of ancient Greece, Arabia, and Judaism to the European cultural circle. He did not make brilliant achievements like the swordsman and the king. He also did not create a work of art that could be passed down for thousands of years.

However, he was one of the people who started the Renaissance in medieval Europe. He derived the concept of "Kabbalah" from the Hebrew word "acceptance" - in other words, he was an absolute "hero" who created one of the foundations of magic and had a huge impact on world history and the history of magicians on the other side of the world.

Avisbron has a strange personality. Due to his illness and world-weariness, he hates to interact with others. Although he still has the rationality to talk to others, there is no room for emotion. As a magician, he has reached the pinnacle of a certain magic, so he does not have to worry about the trivial matters at home.

This magic is the creation of golems, and Avisbron is the foremost golem master in the history of magic. Roche, who has no feelings for humans, has an unusual respect for him, and it is because of this that Danic chose him as the same early summoning target as Vlad III.

After two months of accumulation, Avisbronn has accumulated four-digit golems, including large and small, long-range and melee, and reconnaissance. They are an indispensable part of the Thousand World Tree Clan's defense system.

Releasing so many golems at once would be difficult even for a top servant like Siegfried, and this is not even Avisbronn's trump card.

Avesbron's trump card, and also his only Noble Phantasm, is called "Golem Kether Malchut". This Noble Phantasm can be said to be the pinnacle of golems, no, it has surpassed the boundaries of golems and puppets, and reached a new level of artificial life. Unfortunately, Avesbron was unable to complete it during his lifetime, and his only wish after being summoned as a Heroic Spirit was to complete this Noble Phantasm.

Now, he only lacks one last ingredient for his wish - a first-class magician to serve as the "core".

Avesbron's Noble Phantasm can directly reflect the performance of the "core" as the power of the Noble Phantasm. Unfortunately, the Thousand World Tree Clan who meet the requirements are all masters, and it is impossible for them to be the "core", so Avesbron has to set his sights on the androids.

Both the supply androids and the combat androids have first-class magic circuits. The only shortcoming is that they have no self-awareness, so they cannot be called complete magicians. Avisbronn tested many androids but did not find a suitable one until Sieg appeared.

Using magic without any orders is undoubtedly a manifestation of awakening self-awareness. In other words, this android has become a magician and has the potential to be a "core".

Avisbronn believed that as long as he was found, his wish would be one step closer to realization.

"Crown of Wisdom" is a growth-type A+-level anti-army treasure that has the power to influence the outcome of a battle. In this light, handing Sieg over to Avisbron is the best choice.

If Sieg can be the "core", the black side will have a much higher chance of winning, and it will truly reach the 80% that Danic said. Taking this as an opportunity, Shinji will be able to gain command of the "Crown of Wisdom" and will be able to defeat the red side in one go.

If it can't be used, you can also try to gain favor from the caster group and the berserker group, and it can also eliminate the possibility of Fei Ge digging out his heart to save people.

As soon as I thought of this, I had an impulse to go directly to find Danik.

PS: In Afu’s new skill book, Afu exposes Charlemagne’s dark history. Adding on Roland’s experience of streaking, it suddenly feels like this is a group of people who are funnier than the Round Table.

PS2: This swimsuit event is so damn poisonous. I drew 525 stones and 26 summon talismans before I graduated. I got one Nero, two Nitos, one Nobunaga, one Ken, a tower cat, and a cake. It's really bad.
