"..."

Mordred's expression looked a little complicated.

She felt that Matthew, who explained to her so seriously what it meant to be particularly relaxed, did not look like a liar;

But on the other hand, she always felt that something was wrong.

After thinking again and again, Mordred said:

"Then are you really willing to do such a thing?"

"Yeah." Matthew nodded.

"Because seniors are very important to me."

The pink-haired girl raised her head and looked at the snow-white wall, and images flashed back in front of her eyes.

"Senior was the first person to take the initiative to hold my hand."

"Obviously everyone would avoid me when they saw me at that time, but he still held my hand."

"Senior is also the first person who is willing to drink the same drink and sit at the same table with me."

"He would also tell me that there is no need to care about other people's eyes, just enjoy it like this."

"I……"

Matthew's voice became a little lower.

"Actually, I also know that sleeping with seniors is a very bad thing."

"But...every time I feel the hand of my senior and feel the warmth from his palm, I feel that I am needed."

"That kind of recognition can't be given by anyone except seniors."

At this point, Matthew realized that he seemed to have gone too far.

She quickly apologized to Mordred beside her.

"I'm sorry for saying so many strange things by accident!"

"..."

Mordred shook his head.

"No, that's not weird."

"If it's a sense of recognition... I can understand this emotion very well."

Because she has had a similar experience.

The time spent at the lakeside where Arturia treated her as her own flesh and blood;

The moment when Queen Morgan awarded the splendid King Sword (Clarent);

And the moment he was summoned by his father.

Mordred simply couldn't imagine what he would look like if he lost the recognition from them.

It must be miserable, right?

After hearing Mordred's words, Mashu lowered his head.

"Thank you, thank you for your understanding!"

"..."

Seeing the other party's appearance, Mordred became a little confused for a moment.

She originally thought the situation would be a bad drama in which her father betrayed her mother for his own selfish desires.

But in fact, he agreed to all this in order to give Matthew the "sense of need" and "sense of recognition" that he needed to survive.

She couldn't blame her too much.

Because she knows their importance.

He is still the great and upright father in his heart.

Everything he did was indeed cheating, but it was excusable.

What should I do?

Just when Mordred was at a loss what to do, Matthew suddenly spoke again:

"correct!"

"Senior also taught me this!"

"Learned this?"

"Ok!"

Matthew stretched out his hand forward, and then said as if praying:

"Please, please come to me again!"

As the pink-haired girl said these words, which were like a magical girl transforming, she also gained a thick layer of armor.

A huge buckler appeared in her hand, looking strong and heavy.

"Mordred, look!" Matthew said with a smile.

"..."

Mordred was stunned for a moment before reacting.

"Ma Xiu, is this your Noble Phantasm?!"

It's not like the naughty kid has never seen Mash holding it before, but he simply thought it was some kind of Chaldean special defense equipment.

"Yes." Matthew nodded.

"When I was at Singularity Point F... I worked hard with Ritsuka and successfully deployed this Noble Phantasm."

"Looking back now, I think it was probably because I had the desire to protect my senior that I succeeded!"

"..."

Mordred frowned slightly.

"That's a good thing."

"But what do you want to do by taking it out now? Want to beat me down?"

"No, no, no!" Ma Xiu quickly denied this statement.

"I just want to prove something to you."

"Prove something?"

"Yeah!" Matthew nodded firmly.

"I want to prove to you... that I can grow by staying with my senior. He is very important to me."

"so--"

The pink-haired girl looked at Mordred, her eyes filled with sincerity.

"Can you give me a chance to date your master?"

"..."

Mordred knew that Matthew was very timid.

Otherwise, the slightly louder movement wouldn't have scared her to the ground.

but--

She is so brave when it comes to facing her feelings for her father.

A deathly silence fell in the room.

After a long time, Mordred gave his answer:

"I don't want to give it."

Matthew's heart suddenly fell to the bottom.

"but--"

"I'll let you try it after all."

"Eh?!" Ma Xiu raised his head.

"Don't look at me with that grateful look." Mordred turned his face sideways, "I just don't want my master to be sad."

"And don't blame me for not warning you."

"If you plan to date my Master—"

"One day in the future, a very powerful person will come to deal with you!"

"This……"

Mashu hesitated for a moment, then clenched his shield again and said extremely seriously.

"As long as I can stay with senior, I'm not afraid of anything!"

Mordred sighed - she gave in.

After all, if you think about it carefully, it is indeed quite lonely for your father to be so alone.

What's more... this is no longer an underground affair, right?

"I hope Matthew will do what you say when the time comes."

"correct--"

The naughty boy's eyes fell on Mashu's shield.

"By the way, why does your shield look familiar? I seem to have seen it somewhere."

"Well... I actually don't know its name yet."

"Eh?! You don't know?"

A storm ended just like that because of Mashu's honesty.

Mordred acquiesced in her relationship with her father - although she often wondered whether this was finding a stepmother for herself.

never mind!

I don't want so much anymore!

Time passed quickly, and soon the day of departure came.

According to the plan, Chaldea will send a team of four to one of the seven singular points discovered after re-scanning the earth.

They are:

Fujimaru Ritsuka and his servant Mash Kirilet;

Ian Pendragon and his servant Mordred.

There was no lively farewell, just silent gazes.

This is a life-or-death journey, and no one is sure whether they will come back.

In silence, the four of them entered the repaired spirit transfer box.

This is a tragic action to retrieve the Holy Grail, correct the singularity, and thereby repair the history of pan-humanity.

but--

The moment he completely entered the box, Ian heard a familiar voice that had not appeared in a long time.
