Fiore's cheeks had never been so red as they were now, as if there was a fire burning inside, and no matter how hard she tried to put it out, it would not go out. Of course, this was because Shinji saw her in such a state, but more importantly, it was because of Serenika's words.
After the Astolfo Trial and the Black Lancer Countermeasures Discussion Meeting ended, Shinji sent Fiore back to her room and went to find Astolfo to check on Sieg's situation - since he had chosen to help, he couldn't give up halfway.
Fiore didn't think much about it. Chiron, Shinji, and Astol have always had a good relationship. Astolfo is facing the death penalty, Chiron and Shinji are willing to protect him. It's not a big deal to visit him in prison now. It's estimated that Chiron will be there soon.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, Corles ran into her room and said that Chiron had gone to visit Astolfo. Hearing that Assassin had also gone, he suggested that we go and see him, since we had nothing to do anyway.
Looking at her brother's expression, Fiore knew that Colles was probably not going to visit him in prison, but was plotting something. If she tried to dissuade him directly, Colles might not listen. Even if he listened on the surface, he might sneak over later. Instead of doing that, it would be better to just go with him, so that it would be easier to deal with any situation.
With this in mind, Fiore agreed to go watch it with her brother.
What to watch? What will you say when you watch Archer, Assassin, and Rider
How to watch? Peep, or more precisely, eavesdrop.
The essence of the Fulvig family's magic is the attachment and manipulation of spirits. Although the combat effectiveness of this magic is not high, it is excellent in many aspects, such as peeping and eavesdropping.
In this way, Fiore and Colles hid in the corridor leading to the dungeon, using the beast spirits they had prepared in advance to spy and eavesdrop.
Originally, Fiore disagreed with this, but seeing the artificial guards being driven out of the dungeon, Fiore couldn't help but be curious. In addition, the dungeon had been pre-set up with a barrier to suppress the perception of the servants, so Fiore didn't stop her brother.
Then, the siblings heard Serenikai's explosive speech.
The Fulvig siblings are not very old. Although the Western education system in this area is relatively complete and they know all the knowledge they need to know, knowledge is different from practice. The two of them have no experience in this area and have never even driven a car. How can they compare with the experienced driver Serenike
Serenike said a few words casually, and the two amateurs became red-faced and confused.
When the veteran driver started to show off his driving skills, the two amateurs collapsed. Colles' head hit the wall directly, and Fiore's wheelchair accidentally hit the floor tiles.
Although there were complex barriers in the dungeon, none of them were soundproof. Now, Serenike who was flirting, Shinji who was being flirted with, and Astolfo who was watching the show all discovered the presence of the peeping tom.
The two people who were peeping also realized that something was wrong and fled in a panic, going straight back to their respective rooms without saying a word on the way.
Coles, who had excellent psychological qualities and was not the target of direct ridicule, went back to get some cool air and quickly calmed down.
Fiore was not so calm. The "unclean" words she had just heard kept echoing in her mind, and her pretty face turned red and white.
She wanted to suppress those thoughts, but she couldn't do it. In the end, she could only use water to calm herself down.
With the help of the bathtub and the foam, Fiore finally washed away the confusion in her heart and prepared to lie down on the bed to rest for a while. At this time, she had completely forgotten about taking medicine, and the magic circuit that was always aching did not cause her any more trouble. Maybe it was still aching, but she could not feel it because her heart was in a mess.
Coming out of the bathroom, Fiore felt extremely tired, even more tired than doing magic experiments in the studio all day. Just as she was about to take a break, she heard Shinji's voice.
Now, all the previous efforts were wasted. The distracting thoughts that were suppressed with great difficulty were like weeds that grew back in the spring breeze.
The innocent girl was so confused that she answered in a panic while instinctively tossing and turning on the bed. She moved too much and accidentally fell off the bed, causing a headache.
I finally raised my head, only to see Shinji pushing the door open again.
For a moment, emotions such as shame, embarrassment, grievance, panic, etc. surged into her heart. She didn't even know how she drove Shinji out. It was not until the door was closed and she could no longer see the man who made her uneasy that she gradually took control of her thoughts, but only a little bit.
Of course, the guy outside was not much better. Two people who usually got along well with each other were having an awkward conversation like two idiots, which is the legendary awkward chat.
When the awkward conversation ended and Fiore heard the clear sound of the door closing on the other side, she woke up from her dream.
"What have I done—"
After carefully recalling everything that had happened before, the girl almost fainted.
"He... doesn't hate me, does he?"
The girl seemed to have lost all her strength and collapsed on the bed like a deflated ball.
"Wow, wow, wow, what should I do?"
Fiore was drowsy for the whole night after that. She tossed and turned, thinking wildly, and all she saw in her half-asleep and half-awake state was Shinji's face.
◇◇◇
In addition to Fiore, there was another person tossing and turning in bed, unable to fall asleep.
His name is Gold.
What happened tonight had a huge impact on him.
Siegfried was helpless against Achilles and had his own ambitions.
The power of Black Assassin and Fiore's trust.
The contrast is so striking.
The subsequent meeting between kings made Gold feel the unreserved trust.
In order to save Astolfo, Chiron and the Black Assassin did not hesitate to fight with Vlad III, which was unimaginable to Gold. You know, Astolfo's master stood by and watched without raising any objections, so why did you two "outsiders" meddle in other people's business? Why didn't the Fulveji siblings stop him
Gold still remembers the expressions of Fiore and Colles. Although they were a little surprised and nervous, they did not waver at all.
At that time, he was thinking that although Assassin was not as strong as Siegfried, he could still show his might against top servants like Karna and Achilles. On the other hand, he only had the great hero Siegfried, but he had no outstanding results so far.
If this continues, it will no longer be Siegfried's incompetence, but my own incompetence.
Maybe it's really like what that annoying assassin said, the master-servant relationship is very important. But I have never understood, no, I have never thought about understanding my servant.
In any case, let's have a good talk with Siegfried first, at least to understand what his wish is.
Thinking of this, Gold got up from the bed and took out a bottle of red wine and two wine glasses.
"Saber, materialize."
The knight from the Netherlands showed up, his tall figure was still as oppressive as ever, he had always been there.
Gold pointed to the adjacent sofa and handed over a glass of red wine.
"How about we have a drink together? I want to have a good chat with you."
...
There are many people who can't sleep tonight.
PS: Serenike gave a beautiful assist, she is worthy of being the only Master who knows how to use Servants and Command Spells.
PS2: The fat guy is about to become stronger. In this novel by Dongchu, Jian Shao always thinks that the fat guy is the best. The transformation from disgust in the early stage to the later stage perfectly explains what growth is.
