Chapter 53

"You seem to have many bugs swarming you, my dear." Minamoto let go of her embrace and then placed her hand on the sword's hilt.

"What an eyesore, looks like I need to get rid of everything."

"Hello?! Don't be like that, Minamoto." Vermillion hastily calmed Minamoto down.

"We are all friends, I hope you get along well with everyone."

"Sigh..." Minamoto took a deep breath, and before long, she withdrew her hand from the sword's hilt. "Since my dear said so, I have no other choice but to let you guys go." Said Minamoto while looking at them with an unsavory look.

'Berseker does have a tendency to go berserk...' Vermillion said to himself while heaving a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry my dear. While you are not looking, I will clean up the bugs." Minamoto took her Master's right hand and placed it on her heart.

Seeing Minamoto's frightening smile, Vermillion broke out in cold sweat again.

On the other hand, Emiya, who saw his Master being mobbed by many women, could only shake his head. Smiling wryly, Emiya recalled his old self.

"Haha, what a joy to be a young man." Sitting on a chair, Li Shuwen took a sip of tea while watching the drama unfold.

"Do you know Vermillion's true purpose?" Still clinging to Vermillion's back, Drake asked while looking at Minamoto.

"Huh? Insect, what are you trying to say? Also, let go of my dear!" Looking at Drake, who was still clinging to his lover's back, Minamoto looked at the woman fiercely.

"Vermillion has a desire to be king of the world, and he needs more friends!" Drake let go of her hug.

"Excluding us, do you really believe that you can fulfill Vermillion's wish and make him the king of the world?" Drake said in a serious tone.

"This, this..." Minamoto paused.

"To be honest, I also wanted to make Vermillion my one and only. But with his wish, I knew that I wouldn't be able to fulfill Master's wish with my own strength. That's why I accepted Tsunade, Musashi and Scheherazade, even you!"

"I think that Tsunade and Musashi also think the same."

Reaching out her hand, Drake said. "So can we get along?"

Hearing Drake's invitation, Minamoto started to think hard. Weigh the pros and cons of these choices.

After a while, Minamoto finally made a choice.

"For my lover, to fulfill his wish, I, Minamoto, willing to get along..." Minamoto shook hands with a jealous expression. Then her expression changed to a genuine smile towards Vermillion.

"As long as it's my dear's wish, I'll do anything." Minamoto drew closer to her Master and then hugged the man tightly.

"So, please... please don't leave me."

"Minamoto, please don't say those sad words, I will never leave you." Vermillion returned Minamoto's hug.

"Yes!" Once again, Minamoto shed tears, but this time tears of joy.

On the other hand, Vermillion did not expect Drake to have mastered Talk no Jutsu.

***

Minamoto released her hug after Vermillion said that he would summon a new Servant. If Vermillion didn't coax her, this woman would continue hugging him into the night!

"Enough!" Tsunade stepped forward with an unhappy face.

"Because your ability can help Vermillion, this time I will forgive you, Minamoto."

"That's right, hogging Vermillion is bad manners!" Musashi chimed in with a jealous expression.

Scheherazade: "..."

Seeing Minamoto ignoring them, Tsunade said, "Don't you want to say something?"

As Tsunade tried to approach the woman, she heard Minamoto muttering something in a low voice.

'My dear, call me 'my love'... my dear, call me by my name, hehe~.'

If it weren't for her sharp hearing, coupled with her proximity, Tsunade wouldn't be able to hear the woman's whispers.

Hearing this, the corners of Tsunade's mouth twitched. She hastily retreated backward, better not disturb the strange woman.

Seeing that the problem had been solved, Vermillion breathed a sigh of relief while looking at Drake with gratitude.

Drake just smiled while nodding her head.

Seeing Drake's smile, Vermillion's heart became warmer.

Refocusing his concentration, Vermillion received the gift of summoning Minamoto no Raikou.

That gift was none other than: [Ox-King Storm Call - The Inescapable Net of Heaven]

Vermillion was very satisfied with this new ability. With this Noble Phantasm, he can summon several clones that are as strong as himself to attack simultaneously. This ability is quite interesting to think about.
