Complaints and grumbles are fine, but since she has accepted the task, Arteluqi will complete it well, otherwise she will not become the leader of the team.
Adjusting her mood as quickly as possible, the black princess put her pet on the ground and clapped her hands.
"Let's stop the quarrel between old friends for now and solve the problems that need to be solved first. Mr. Merlin, how do you prove that Lian helped you voluntarily?"
"This is easy, just ask her yourself. I used the special ability of nightmares to connect with her through dreams - I am now equivalent to a dream she had. I will disappear and wake her up."
As he spoke, the white mist with the fragrance of flowers surrounding Lian gradually faded away, and the image projected in Lian's eyes also disappeared at the same time. After a few seconds, Lian's eyes became clear again.
The White Beast, still in its demon cat form, trotted over, stretched out its little paws and waved them in front of Lian's eyes, then made two "Fufu" sounds, obviously asking questions - as the beast that hated Merlin the most in the world (as it claimed), it would not miss any opportunity to strike Merlin down.
Lian nodded slightly, and Cathy Palug's ears drooped immediately. She didn't need a translator to guess that Merlin was not lying this time, and Lian really volunteered.
However, the powerful and tenacious White Beast did not give up so quickly. Its "Fufufu" calls became more and more urgent, telling Merlin that he was a big liar and a bastard, and that he should be kept as far away from him as possible to avoid being cheated.
In response, Lian simply opened her mouth and spit out a white mist that was somewhat similar to the one when Merlin appeared.
The white mist swirled and condensed, outlining a faint human figure.
This is a girl, about the same height and build as Arteluci, and the same clothes, both of them are wearing a black dress, but the style is a little simple. She has long blue hair that falls to her waist, and a big black bow on top of her head, which makes her look very cute.
Seeing this girl, Elquet exclaimed, and said in surprise: "Lian, can you appear in the world in this state?"
The white mist continued to roll, and condensed into a question board in the girl's hand, with a big "yes" written on it.
This girl is Lian's true self. Before, she could only appear in this image in dreams, and in the real world she could only be a black cat, but now this restriction seems to have been broken, and the reason is obvious.
"Is it Merlin?" asked Altruci.
"Yes." Lian flipped the board in her hand and said, "Remuneration."
Combined with Merlin's previous words, it is not difficult to conclude that Merlin asked Lian to lend him her body temporarily in exchange for teaching her. Merlin is the most famous nightmare in the world, and he has lived long enough to teach Lian, a younger generation who was born not long ago.
"Well, you still can't make any sound in this state?" Artluci continued to ask.
"Practice, entity, possibility." Another page was turned on the question board, which meant to continue practicing. When you can truly condense an entity like Merlin, you can speak - it seems that Merlin really takes good care of this junior.
"If that's the case, it's not unacceptable. At least it's good for Lian's growth. And this... looks more like my sister than that idiot over there. Why don't you just ignore that idiot and follow me."
"Alteluqi! Do you still want to be beaten?" Alquette exploded.
"Do you think I'm afraid of you?" With the white beast by her side, Altluchi regained her courage.
"Your Highnesses, please stop for a moment. Merlin's problem has not been solved yet." Brad reminded quickly.
"That's right." Elquet slapped his forehead, "Lian, change people."
The white mist lingers and flows, once again creating the image of a man in white clothes and the fragrance of flowers.
Lian can only create images, but Merlin can make the vision, smell and hearing be affected by images, which shows the latter's attainments in this area.
"Ah~ Two beautiful ladies, I really didn't lie to you, could you please let me go? I have something important to do."
"Oh, do you have something important to do?" Artluqi smiled slightly and stood in front of Merlin.
"Well... it's a matter of personal privacy..." Merlin hesitated, his eyes wandering.
"I heard that Mr. Merlin's clairvoyance can see any corner of the world. I believe he knows why we are here. If you can't give me a satisfactory reason, I'm afraid I can't let you leave. If you don't feel comfortable telling me, you can tell Dabai - Cathy Parug."
"I prefer to communicate with a beautiful lady rather than that magic cat."
Looking at the white beast that was ready to make a move, Merlin lowered his head and admitted defeat.
"Well, I came here for Artoria. She finally has a chance to fall in love like a girl, and I want to see her up close."
"Fufu-Fufu--(I don't believe it, just look at it and you don't need to come out at all)!" Cathy Paluge continued to play the role of a troublemaker.
"Besides watching, I also want to support her secretly. Artoria is clumsy in this regard, and the person she likes is popular with women like me. Without my help, she will fail quickly - probably."
"Is that so? The competitor you mentioned has one here as well." Artluchi glanced at Elquet with a half-smile, "Hey, someone has taken a fancy to your man."
"Oh." Arquette said expressionlessly.
"I mean someone wants to steal your man!"
"I heard you."
"You're not angry?"
"Don't be angry, Shinji just needs to like me. It's his freedom to like someone else."
"W-why did you hit me before?"
"Except you."
"You!" Artluqi was so angry.
"Um, can I go now?" Merlin asked weakly.
"Still not working!"
"Why?"
"You know it very well. Both the two restraining forces are involved in this Holy Grail War. If we leave Mr. Merlin alone, there will be too many variables. I have no objection to your support for King Arthur's love, but please stay within our sight, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude—"
As Artelucci spoke, she moved her fingers slightly. The night wind by the river stopped flowing in an instant, and the white mist that kept changing around Merlin also stopped flowing.
"This is!!!"
"Although I don't have 'fantasy materialization', I have a lot of experience in the application of mental power, and I know how to deal with dreams. I dare not say your true form, but if it's just a dream, it won't be difficult for me!"
This could be considered Merlin's only weakness. The nightmare's true form was in the dream, so no matter how much damage the real body suffered, it didn't matter. However, if there was an ability or treasure that directly targeted the dream, it could cause great damage to them.
"Baymax, it's ok now, he has a physical body."
"Fufu—"
The white beast immediately became alert and pounced towards the big tree by the river.
"Stop, you demon cat, I've taken care of you for so long, even if I don't have any credit for it, I've worked hard!"
"Hey, I told you to stop, did you hear me?"
When the White Beast ignored him, Merlin changed his tone.
"Can we discuss this, for the sake of me making your friend so adorable?"
"Fu Fu—" It would have been fine if you hadn't mentioned this, but once you mentioned it, the white beast crawled even faster.
"I know what you're thinking, but she's still young and needs room to grow. When she grows up, she will definitely be no worse than your current owner, both in appearance and figure."
"Fu!" The white beast's ears stood up, seeming to be quite interested.
Merlin knew there was a chance, and was about to make further efforts, but he heard Artluchi snort coldly: "Oh, so you like this type."
The chill in the voice made the two veteran drivers' hair stand on end. The White Beast did not dare to hesitate and climbed to the top of the tree as quickly as possible.
then-
"Fuwu-Fuwu-Merlin Special Fu!"
Spinning armor-piercing suicide dog, super Fu Fu movie bomb!
"Gua ...
Merlin screamed and fell backwards.
PS: Fu Fu is also an old driver - she was taught by Merlin, and except for Aho-Mao, none of them are good people.
PS2: Super FuFu movie series is a super overlord movie series, from an old Gundam series, Gundam G, it is the most passionate Gundam series, those who are interested can watch it.
