This pitiful appearance really made Wang Xiaoming feel sorry for her. So, Wang Xiaoming would proactively ask her from time to time if she was hungry, thirsty, needed to use the restroom, sleepy, or wanted to go to bed.
Then, Wang Xiaoming accompanied Xiaoying to the restroom, took Xiaoying to bathe, ate with her, and slept with her. After a week, Xiaoying finally believed that Wang Xiaoming would not abandon her.
As for accompanying Xiaoying to the restroom and bathing, Wang Xiaoming didn't feel anything. Qianshou Xiashi and Tina at home were both ten years old. Xiaoying was only six years old this year, even younger than them. He was just taking care of a child, what could he feel?
It's just that this was the first time taking care of such a young child, a well-behaved child completely different from the mature and clever Xiashi and Tina. It gave Wang Xiaoming a completely different experience, a feeling of truly taking care of a daughter.
After comforting Xiaoying, Wang Xiaoming investigated alone in Fuyuki City. Wang Xiaoming's low presence allowed him to collect a lot of information. Then he confirmed the start time of the Holy Grail War and found Uryuu Ryunosuke today.
Unfortunately, he was too late when he arrived. The adults in this family had already been killed by Uryuu Ryunosuke.
And now, Uryuu Ryunosuke is summoning a Heroic Spirit.
Uryuu Ryunosuke, the Master of Caster in the Fourth Holy Grail War. He is not a magician, but a perverted murderer. After coming to Fuyuki City, he accidentally triggered the Holy Grail's mechanism and became a Master, summoning an even more perverted Caster.
Last time in the Holy Grail War, Wang Xiaoming pretended to be Saber and joined the Holy Grail War as a Servant. Then he obtained the final Holy Grail. This time, Wang Xiaoming plans to summon a Servant to try. As for a catalyst, he doesn't have one! As for who he summons, Wang Xiaoming doesn't care. He just wants to play around. Anyway, the final battle will definitely be his!
Wang Xiaoming watched from the side, watching Uryuu Ryunosuke completely draw the Heroic Spirit summoning circle with blood, and then he directly clawed over, sending Uryuu Ryunosuke to see the most beautiful art in his heart.
The little boy next to him was immediately frightened because, in his vision, the murderer Uryuu Ryunosuke had just drawn a strange pattern, and then his chest suddenly exploded. A heart jumped out and then shattered into powder in mid-air.
Throwing Uryuu Ryunosuke, whose expression was frozen in the moment of surprise, aside, Wang Xiaoming took out a pair of sunglasses and a small black thing from his space pocket and came to the little boy on the ground.
Putting on the sunglasses, he pressed the black thing in his hand at the little boy. A burst of light flashed, and the little boy's frightened expression eased.
Wang Xiaoming took off his sunglasses and began to speak.
"Your home was broken into and the murderer committed suicide after killing. You are the only survivor. You are now planning to call the police, and you have never seen me."
While speaking, he untied the rope binding the boy's hands and feet. The boy nodded blankly, then got up and walked out of the room, muttering about calling the police, slowly walking towards the police station.
Watching the little boy walk out of the room, Wang Xiaoming closed the door, threw the sunglasses back into his space pocket, and then came to the Heroic Spirit summoning circle to begin the summoning.
"Although I don't know if I'm qualified to summon without being selected by the Holy Grail, I'll try it. What if it succeeds in one go?"
Wang Xiaoming's right hand stretched forward and began to chant.
"Let silver and iron be the essence."
"Let stone and the Archduke of Contracts be the foundation."
"Let the descending wind be the barrier."
"Close the gates of the four directions."
"Emerge from the Crown."
"Heed my words, my will creates your body, and your sword creates my destiny."
"If you heed the Grail’s call and obey my will and reason, then answer me!"
"I hereby swear--"
"I am he who achieves all good in the world, and I am he who purges all evil in the world."
"Let the seven heavens, clad in three great words, rise from the circle of suppression, the guardian of the scales!"
Light soared into the sky. Wang Xiaoming took out his sunglasses again and put them on. After the light dissipated, he took them off again.
In the magic circle where the light had dissipated, a white figure stood quietly.
After seeing Wang Xiaoming, the other party raised his right hand to greet Wang Xiaoming.
"Yo! I am Caster, summoned in response!"
"May I ask, are you my Master?"
385. Although I like to cut people with holy swords, I am Caster.
"Yo! I am Caster, summoned in response!"
"May I ask, are you my Master?"
"Yes, I am your Master."
Facing the white-haired man's question, Wang Xiaoming smiled and nodded in response.
"Then, the contract is established!"
The white-haired man nodded with a grin, and then began his self-introduction.
"I am Merlin, Caster! Known as the Magician of Flowers, the magician among magicians! No need to be polite, just call me Merlin, please take care of me, Master."
Merlin, a mixed-blood of humans and nightmares, is not human in essence. He is the great magician in the legend of King Arthur, the guide of the king, and also Arthur's right-hand man and confidant.
From the first moment he saw him, Wang Xiaoming recognized his identity. There was no way, it was really difficult for Moon Cell people not to recognize Merlin. The red burst crutch, one of the do-whatever-you-want combinations back then. Although the red crutch and charging have now been completely suppressed by the Vitch, Merlin's popularity was really high back then.
In essence, he should not be a Servant, because the so-called Servants are all those heroes who have died, signed a contract with Gaia or Alaya, and entered the Hall of Heroes to work for them.
But Merlin hadn't died. Just like that 17-year-old beauty in the purple tights, he was an immortal being who had been in Avalon all along, never encountering any danger.
I really didn't expect to summon this guy. He shouldn't have appeared in response to a summoning in the first place. But since he's here, that's perfectly fine. I was just summoning for fun anyway, and it's even better to summon a Red Caster.
"Let me introduce myself. I'm Merlin, and my name is Wang Xiaoming. Of course, you can also call me by my other name, Arthur Pendragon. I am your Master, so you can call me Brother Xiaoming."
Wang Xiaoming introduced himself to Merlin, while extending his right hand and displaying the back of his left hand.
Although Wang Xiaoming used his right hand to summon, the Command Spells were on his left hand. As for why, it's because the back of Wang Xiaoming's right hand bore Esther's contract seal. Esther wouldn't allow any other contracts to appear on Wang Xiaoming's right hand; it was exclusively hers.
"Oh my, Master, that name..."
Merlin didn't look at the Command Spells in Wang Xiaoming's hand. The contract didn't need to be seen to be known. However, he was surprised by Wang Xiaoming's self-introduction.
"That's right, it's the name of the legendary King Arthur, isn't it? As King Arthur's guide, you, Merlin, are very familiar with this name."
Wang Xiaoming smiled and retracted his left hand.
Merlin pinched his chin, looking at Wang Xiaoming with a smile.
"Indeed, Master, the way you look, along with that armor and clothing, makes you look like a male version of King Arthur in my eyes."
"You think so too, right?"
Wang Xiaoming nodded in agreement.
"Hmm? Master, don't you have any objections to what I said?"
Merlin looked at Wang Xiaoming in surprise.
"I don't have any objections at all, because I am indeed King Arthur, except I'm a King Arthur from a parallel world. The Merlin in my world is a beautiful girl."
Wang Xiaoming spouted lies without hesitation.
"Er.... Alright, I think I understand."
Merlin sighed with some regret. He had wanted to surprise Wang Xiaoming, but it was obvious that the other party had known all along that King Arthur in this world was female.
A King Arthur from a parallel world, a male King Arthur.
Merlin pinched his chin and carefully sized up Wang Xiaoming. He had to admit, this male Arthur was really good-looking, and...
"Let me just say, Master, your voice sounds quite similar to mine."
"Yeah, it does. I feel like the aura is a bit different, but the core is very similar."
Of course, they were similar. After all, Wang Xiaoming's voice was the voice of the Old Saber, and the voice actor for the Old Saber and Merlin was the same person: Takahiro Sakurai!
"Merlin, you must be bored in Avalon."
"Indeed, I'm so bored in Avalon. I happened to hear a summoning, so I created this clone to come and play. I didn't expect to encounter something so interesting as soon as I arrived."
The simple conversation made Merlin understand the current situation. This King Arthur from a parallel world clearly knew a lot about this world and had come specifically to participate in this Holy Grail War.
In other words, being summoned this time would be very interesting!
As a half-incubus, Merlin's favorite thing was an interesting world. This wasn't the world of FGO, so there was no need to consider the incineration of human history. Merlin only needed to consider interesting things.
Clearly, the appearance of a King Arthur from a parallel world in this Holy Grail War was an interesting thing.
While Merlin was happy, Wang Xiaoming was also looking at Merlin's stats.
Class: Caster
True Name: Merlin
Strength: B++
Endurance: E++
Agility: D++
Mana: A++
Luck: C++
Noble Phantasm: C
The attributes were different from the values Wang Xiaoming knew, much higher than the attributes in the game, probably because his own mana was very abundant.
Class Skills
Territory Creation: C
As a magus, the ability to create a territory advantageous to oneself, a 'Workshop'.
However, due to his impatience and carelessness, he basically gives up halfway.
High-Speed Incantation: C
The ability to accelerate the chanting of spells.
Although the beauty of his pronunciation is among the best even among all Casters, he occasionally stutters if he speaks too fast, hence the lower rank.
Item Construction: C
The ability to create magical tools.
Although he is full of confidence in this, it cannot really be said that he has outstanding talent.
Mixed Blood: EX
Mixed with the bloodline of beings other than humans.
Merlin is considered a hybrid of incubus, fully inheriting the characteristics of incubus.
Independent Manifestation: A
The skill to appear independently in the present world.
Merlin would not normally be summoned as a Heroic Spirit. Because no matter what the future holds, he will not die.
The reason he obeys the Master as a Servant is to release personal desires, or in other words, personal interests.
In order to realize his interests, he acquired this skill, which only a certain special class can possess, on his own, and pretended to be summoned as a Servant.
Personal Skills
Charisma: B
The ability to lead others. Although it can be said to be a skill necessary for a king or leader, Merlin seems to possess this skill innately for some reason.
Dreamlike Charisma: A
Illusion: A
Magic that can bewilder people.
Refers to intervening in the spirit and projecting illusory images in the real world.
An existence of rank A can not only turn the spiritual world into a nightmare but also easily create an illusory image on the scale of a village in the real world, deceiving people.
Hero Creation: EX
The technique of artificially creating kings and cultivating kings.
Merlin, who can even be said to be the true father of King Arthur, is one of the world's most well-known king educators.
