Chapter 160: Chapter 67: Summon Frenzy (3)
"I am Saber, name's Mordred. Is my father here?"
The tomboyish woman introduced as soon as she came out of the magic circle before her eyes stopped to look at the numerous Artorias who were looking at her with an disinterested expression on their faces.
"... What the... Am I hallucinating?"
She muttered in bewilderment seeing several versions of her own father in front of her eyes causing her face to distort.
"You've finally shown yourself, my delinquent son!"
X shouted from the back while pointing her sword at Mordred who was looking at her with a confused expression on her face.
"Huh? Who the hell are you, brat?"
She asked as her helmet started to reattach back to her head, hiding her identity from Heroine X before raising her own sword to prepare herself for combat.
"You don't remember the face of your own father!! Never mind that... Now, here's the punishment for destroying the castle walls!"
X shouted as she kicked the ground at full force, propelling herself towards Mordred with her sword in hand while Mordred took a stance to defend herself from her attack.
"Take this!! [Excalibur]!!"
She shouted as her sword started releasing poweful bluish light causing Mordred to grin as her sword deformed before it released a pillar of blood red light towards the sky.
"So it's time for some overkill!!!"
She shouted in excitement with a hint of savagery visible in her eyes as she positioned her sword pointing towards the sky.
"[Clarent Blood Arthur]!!"
She shouted as both of them slashed their swords towards each other, sending several ripples in the soace around them due to the incredible amount of mana contained in their attack.
But before their attacks could connect to each other a single figure immediately ran between their attacks, taking it by full force with his barehands causing a massive crater to form below him due to the force and power contained in their attacks.
"Huh!?"
Mordred shouted in shock while watching the figure easily resist both her and her father's attack head on with his bare hands before both of their attacks were shattered to pieces by the figure between them.
"... You two..."
Lucias called in a slightly angry voice as he brushed their attacks with his barehands causing X to shiver in fear while Mordred observed him with a large grin on her face.
"Hoh... It looks like my new master, isn't half bad"
She muttered without any regret visible in her voice causing Lucias to sigh before he dissapeared from his spot at incredible speed.
"Huh?"
Mordred muttered in surprise as her master suddenly disappeared from his spot until a powerful smack hit her head from behind causing her face to crash to the ground at full force, destroying a large percentage of the land around her in the process.
"*Sigh*... Just go to sleep for the mean time... I'm kind of tired right now to deal with you"
Lucias muttered in a tired voice before carrying her unconscious body in his arms as she walked back to her previous spot.
"X... come meet me at my room later"
"... Yes"
She meekly answered before sheating her sword with a nervous expression on her face as she never experienced Lucias being angry with her.
"... Sorry about the mess, go ahead and return to your party or whatever"
Lucias said to his servants who were mostly looking at him, astonished by their new master's strength easily shrug off two powerful attacks with his raw strength.
"I thought you'd be more rational and talk to her"
Artoria (Lancer) muttered with a stoic expression on her face causing Lucias to wryly smile as he walked towards her direction.
"I don't think she is the type to listen, Ria"
He gently placed Mordred's sleeping figure behind them on the soft grass of his garden before manipulating the time around his garden to repair of the damages that he created.
"Hmm..."
Artoria (Lancer) hummed while staring at Lucias who casually pressed the summon button in his status board.
"... You should try and smile more, Ria... You're more beautiful when you smile"
Lucias commented as the magic circle brightly illuminated in front them, preventing him from seeing Artoria's (Lancer) blushing cheeks.
Slowly the light slowly dissipates while Artoria (Lancer) immediately hid her blush from Lucias who was looking at the magic circle with expectant eyes.
"I came from the Land of Shadow. My name is Scáthach. I guess I should call you, Master?"
An extremely beautiful woman asked as she stood in front of Lucias with a neutral expression on her face. She has long purple hair and red eyes, and wears a full-body outfit that highlights her curvaceous body, with metallic shoulder pads. In her hands is a blood red spear, giving off a dangerous and murderous aura.
"Just call me whatever you want, Scáthach"
Lucias answered as he gazed at her status in surprise, seeing that she's more powerful than most of the servants that he currently have.
"Hmm... Cù Chulainn is here as well?"
She muttered noticing her past disciple who was grumbling at the corner of the crowd with an irritated expression on his face.
"Wearing the red spear as a curse, how interesting..."
She muttered under her breath while observing her disciple with curiosity written in her eyes.
"Yeah, I just summoned him. You can go and join the rest for the meantime, I'll explain everything after"
Lucias said causing her to nod her head before mumbling a few words under her breath with a displeased expression on her face as she made her way to her disciple.
"Geez, your an unworthy disciple. We'll redo your training, Cù Chulainn"
She said as she walked out of Lucias' sight.
"For some reason... I feel like something's bad is going to happen to him..."
Lucias muttered before hearing a loud crash from behind like someone just smashed a person's head to the ground.
"You unworthy disciple. It seems like you've forgotten all that I've taught you in the past"
"... As expected from someone having 0 status points in Luck... I'll just pray for you, Cù Chulainn"
Lucias muttered as he decided to ignore the loud screams of agony from the back before pressing the summon button causing the magic circle to illuminate while Scáthach walked closer to them, dragging the unconscious Cú Chulainn from behind.
"Haven't you got enough servants, Master?"
Scáthach asked before throwing Cú Chulainn to the side as she walked closer to Lucias with a curious expression on her face.
"... Our enemies is several times the number of my own soldiers, Scáthach... I know can't outnumber them, but I can to overpower them with my servants"
"Hmm..."
Scáthach hummed while gazing at her new master with an amused expression on her face, noticing the strange combination of chaos and serenity in his aura. His muscles were refined and not too buffed since he aimed to balance both his agility and strength.
"It's been long since I saw another being with as much as potential as you, Master"
"Thanks for the compliment"
Lucias said as the light slowly died down leaving a single man in the middle of the magic circle.
The man was tall and tanned with long white hair that reached his feet while some of his hair was tied into a braid on his shoulder.
He wore a very tired and disinterested expression on his face while observing the crowd of servants who were staring at his direction.
"... I'm not suppose to be here... but for some reason you were able to summon me... How?... Oh no wait... My name's Solomon, it's a pleasure to meet you"
[Solomon has been summoned, one servant from the quest of ??? has been deducted]
He said as he slightly bowed his head towards Lucias who was looking at him in interest due to his unique introduction.
"It's a pleasure to meet you as well, Solomon"
Lucias said as he stretched out his hand towards Solomon causing him to slowly nod his head before shaking Lucias' hand but froze when he felt a divine and pure aura that was similar to God's imbedded in his system.
"... You... please forgive my rudeness"
He said as he bowed down in front of Lucias who was caught by surprise from his sudden actions.
"Go-"
"I'm not the biblical god, let's get that one straight"
Lucias immediately cut him off as he predicted what he was about to say since he carried [The Bible] inside of his body.
"I am a God, but a bit different so don't get confused by that"
"... I see..."
He muttered while staring at Lucias who has a wry smile on his face.
'... Wait... How come there's another biblical God from the other dimensions...'
"How to explain this... The biblical God that he believed in is not the Biblical God that we know in this dimension but the True God that ruled the dimension that he was born in..."
'A True God?'
"Indeed... He constructed the entire dimension where your servants came from by himself and created a more superior version of heaven... He is also Void's husband so you'll eventually meet him in the future"
The 'creator' explained causing Lucias to widen his eyes in surprise as he never heard of Void's husband in the past. They always tried to avoid that topic in the main realms since most of the primordial beings were single, unable to marry, or couldn't be bothered to marry like Death and Order.
"Master-sama?"
Solomon called out, noticing the dazed expression of his new master as Lucias stared directly at him with his golden eyes.
"Hmm... You can go inside the mansion and rest... You look really haggard so go and have some rest, just ask the maids for a spare room. I still have a few things to do"
Lucias said causing him to obidiently nod his head before meekly following his orders.
"... Okay... Let's continue"
He said as he pressed the summon button once again before glancing at his servants who were recieving their set of delicacies that the maids of his mansion cooked for them for the night.
"Are you hungry, Lucias?"
Artoria Lily asked in concern as she walked towards Lucias, carrying two bowls of warm creamy soup that she recieved from the maids.
"A little, thanks Liria"
"You're welcome"
Artoria Lily responded before giving the other bowl to Lucias with a bright smile on her face.
"Should I feed you?"
The alter version of Artoria (Rider) said as she walked towards Lucias, wearing a very revealing maid outfit that barely hid her body.
"I'm fine, thanks for the offer"
Lucias said before his new servant greeted him as it stood in front of him with a gentle smile on her face.
"I've arrived! Shinsengumi's First Unit Captain, Okita Souji! Are you my Master?"
A girl in her mid-teens with the same features as Artoria, who wraps her body in fashionable Japanese clothing greeted while holding her katana with her hands causing Lucias to look at her in surprise.
"Another Artoria?"
"... No... I'm sure that she isn't one of us"
Artoria (Rider) said while observing the woman in front of her with narrowed eyes causing Lucias to immediately cast [Appraisal] on the woman in front of him.

"... You're right... but weakened?"
Lucias muttered while reading her status in bewilderment causing Okita to look at him with a confused expression on her face.
"... You had it rough, huh?"
Lucias said before taking out a piece of [Resurrection Pills] from his inventory and giving it to Okita who was looking at him in confusion.
"[Dispel]"
Lucias casted on her body causing his mana to devour her entire body, catching her by surprise but slowly relaxed when she felt the soothing and warm feeling that his mana was giving her.
"With that the curse given to you when you became a heroic spirit should disappear... Go and take that pill to restore your body to its peak, I'll check on your condition later after this"
Lucias said as he stood up and patted her head with his right hand while his other hand carried the bowl of soup that Artoria Lily gave him from before.
"... Master..."
Okita muttered while staring at the warm gaze of her new master with widened eyes.
"You knew about my illness?"
She asked causing Lucias to smile.
"I have a skill that allows me to see the information of anyone close to me... Well... That Illness of yours isn't suppose to be curable but I have a few tricks to dispel your illness"
Lucias said causing Okita to look at him with a grateful expression on her face before swallowing the pill without hesitation.
"I'll forever remember this debt. I shall follow you even in the depths of hell, Master"
"..."
Lucias smiled wryly from her sudden declaration of loyalty since he planned to release all of them once the war is over so that they can live and enjoy their life.
"Master?"
She suddenly called seeing that he gave no response to her declaration.
"... Thank you, but... you don't have to follow me to that extent. I just need your aid"
Lucias said as he sat back down to the ground while noticing the slight dejection in her expression from being rejected of her loyalty.
"... but I guess if you do want to follow me then... do what you wish"
Lucias said in a helpless voice causing her expression to brighten as she tighten her grip on her sword while her ahoge wagged on top of her head.
"Hmm... You're from Shinsengumi right?"
Lucias suddenly asked causing her to nod her head in response.
"Then do you know him?"
Lucias asked while pointing at Saitō Hajime who didn't notice her presence as he kept on drinking without care in the world.
"If it isn't Saitō-san!"
She shouted as she waved her hand at Vergil with a bright smile on her face causing him to look at her direction in surprise.
"Oh damn, it's Okita-chan! Hanging in there? ...Aw wait, I don't mean it like that. I'm not trying to call you sickly-chan or something"
He greeted as he waved his hand at Okita who was running at his direction.
"Have you been fine? Well, you're talking carelessly as always, aren't you. …That aside, if the captains of the First and Third Unit are assembled, Nagakura-san won't stay quiet about it, will he? Ah, how about this? A duel against me after a long ti-"
She suddenly suggested but was immediately cut off by Vergil who looked at his non existent watch with a nervous expression on his face.
"Look at the time! Sorry about Okita-chan but I need to go and rest since we still have lot of things to do, tomorrow!"
He hurriedly said before running towards the mansion as cold sweat ran down his cheek.
"Ah..."
She muttered while staring at his dissapearing figure with a complicated expression on her face.
"... Is Saitō afraid of her?"
Lucias asked himself from seeing his reaction once Okita brought up the topic of duel in their conversation.
"... Aren't you going to press that?"
Anastasia asked while glancing at Lucias who was dazedly staring at the back, snapping him out of his thoughts as he flashed an apologetic look towards her.
"Sorry about that..."
He said before pressing the summon button once again causing the magic circle to illuminate as a single person appeared in front of him.
"Hello, my dear Mage. Servant, Saber... Oh? Huh? I am not a Saber... Oh dear. Erm... I am Minamoto-no-Raikou. Although I still have a long way to go, I will be counting on you from now on, okay?"
An elegant, virtuous and glamorous woman with long violet hair tied at the end. She wore a tight fitting latex bodysuit that emphasized her figure.
"... Yeah... Go ahead and join the others for the meantime... I'll explain everything later"
Lucias said while feeling a weird sense of dread and danger as she gazed at him with some kind of maternal love causing him to shiver in fear.
"... For some reason... I feel exposed in her gaze..."
-with Iris-
"Hmm?"
"What's wrong?"
Shuri asked, noticing that her friend suddenly frowned out of nowhere while holding her cup of tea in her hand.
"... I feel like... my position as Lucias' mother is in danger..."
"... What are you talking about?"
-with Lucias-
"She's... kind of scary"
Castoria muttered while glancing at Raikou who was staring at them with a soft gaze on her face as she held her own cheek with her right hand.
"Yeah... I feel like I'm in danger for some reason... or maybe it's I'm just being too sensitive?"
Lucias muttered as he couldn't figure out why he feels a slight sense of fear from her when she looks like a virtuous and elegant woman overflowing with maternal love.
"Let's just ignore her"
Lucias advised causing Castoria and Artoria (Lily) to nod both of their heads in response before he pressed the summon button once again.
"Oh yeah... What's this about forcefully extracting my mana out of my body?"
Lucias asked while watching the magic circle illuminate in front of him.
"In the past when you summoned Artoria, Jeanne, and Mash, your throne of heroes used the surrounding mana to create the summoning circle since the dimension that you were in at that time was rich in mana that came from the gods... but now in this dimension, your body is the only source of that kind of mana so it is forcefully extracting your mana to create the summoning circle... but it is not extracting your mp but the pure essence in your magic circuit so it's taking a toll on your body since it is slowly draining it everytime you summon a servant"
The 'creator' explained in detail causing Lucias to scratch his chin before the light of the summon circle slowly dissipates leaving a single little girl in front of him.
"Assassin Jack the Ripper. Nice to meet you, Mother"
A little girl with short white hair and yellow green eyes with several stitches and scars on her face greeted causing Lucias to look at her with a strange expression on his face.
Her body was weird since her upper body is that of an adolescence but her lower body is that of a mature adult. She dons a black vest, black panties and black stockings with pink shoes. Both her arms are bandaged but only her left hand wears a glove.
"Mother?"
He muttered from the strange nickname that the little girl gave him as soon as she was summoned.
[Jack the ripper has been summoned, one servant from the quest of ??? has been deducted]
"... Jack the ripper is a little girl?"
Lucias muttered while observing the little girl in front of him who suddenly hugged his waist with a sweet smile on her face.
"I expected for him to be... a bit older and more sinister since his a serial killer but..."
Lucias muttered while patting the little girl on his waist with a weird expression on his face.
"She is made out of the resentment of 10,000 souls of aborted children, and killed hundreds of prostitute with her own hands... She lack common sense that's why mentally... she's still a child"
The 'creator' explained causing Lucias to widen his eyes while holding the little girl in his embrace.
"So... this childlike personality of hers is not a facade?"
"No... that's how she genuinely is Lucias"
The 'creator' said while Lucias gently tried to push her off his body.
"... Mother..."
"... Do I look like a woman to you?"
Lucias said with a wry smile on his face before giving the child to Raikou who was watching him with a gentle smile on her face.
"... Don't leave..."
"I'm not leaving, I'll remain in your sight so don't be sad, alright?"
Lucias comforted as he gently patted her head while Raikou burried her between her large mounds.
"Mn..."
Jack answered in a quite voice causing Lucias to smile before he went back to his spot.
"Huh!? Where am I!?"
Mordred suddenly screamed as she woke up from her sleep causing her to look around her with a large frown on her face.
"..."
Lucias who saw her frantic actions immediately moved and covered her eyes to prevent her from seeing the Artorias in the garden since it might develop into another fight.
"[Sleep]"
Lucias casted as she tried to struggle under his grip as she slowly losing her strength before fainting in his arms.
"This is going to be difficult..."
Lucias muttered as he let go of his grip on her head causing her to fall to the soft grass of his garden before pressing the summon button with a tired expression on his face.
"Can't I just spam the [summon] button? It takes too much time to summon them one at a time"
Lucias asked causing the 'creator' to pause before honestly answering his questions with a concerned tone.
"It is possible but... it will completely drain you after it has been executed-"
"That's all I need to know"
Lucias said with a large grin on his face as the magic circle slowly lit down leaving a single young girl standing in the middle hiding her features behind a large black hood.
"I've materialized as a Lancer-class. My True Name is Medusa. I look forward to working with you"
A lovely young girl with long purple hair and eyes greeted while holding her large scythe in her hand with several chains on the ground connected to the butt of her scythe.
[Medusa has been summoned, one servant from the quest of ??? has been deducted]
"Welcome to the team"
Lucias said as he stretch out his hand towards Medusa who was looking at her with an innocent expression on her face.
"Please take care of me"
She said before shaking his hand without hesitation causing Lucias to smile before pointing his thumb behind him where most of his servants were.
"I'll explain everything later so... go ahead and join the others for the meantime"
Lucias said causing her to nod her head before walking towards the crowd without any questions.
"Now then... Time for the experiment"
Lucias said with a large grin on his face causing the Artorias to frown from recognizing his grin when he is planning on doing something dangerous or reckless.
"Lucias what are you-"
Artoria tried to ask but froze when Lucias suddenly spammed the summon button multiple times causing several magic circle to appear inside the garden.
[Ushiwakamaru has been summoned, one servant from the quest of ??? has been deducted]
[Sasaki Koijiro has been summoned, one servant from the quest of ??? has been deducted]
"Good"
Lucias said not noticing that his arms started to tremble due to his fatigue while his body was suddenly drenched in his own sweat.
"Huh?"
Lucias muttered as he suddenly felt his muscles all-over his body to weaken causing him to fall onto the ground with an extremely uncomfortable expression on his face.
"... It's been so long since I felt this weak... how nostalgic"
He said with a carefree smile on his face, ignoring the panicked expression of his servants who rushed towards his location.
