Chereads / Fate/ Dark Moon / Chapter 9 - alliance

Chapter 9 - alliance

It had been a week since we were attacked by Berserker, Lancer recovered in two days and was muttering about revenge. I honestly believe the philosopher's stone did something to her already bad mood

"Didn't expect to get an invitation to go out from someone so beautiful" I sat on a bench in the square where I let Lancer rest for the last time.

Next to me was a blonde woman. She was Asian, but she had some European features.

The woman hummed softly not bothering to look at me and her vision was focused on the park where children were playing. Among the children was a young woman with white hair caring for a little boy with brown hair.

"Cut the act, I'm not interested in flirting" The woman spoke without looking at me "I have a proposal for you!"

"Ummm? a proposal? Is it marriage?" I joked winking at her, "Because if it is I'm sure I wouldn't hesitate to refuse--"

Suddenly a wave of shivers gathered in my spine making me cringe. it was like a bucket of extremely cold water had been thrown over my head on a cold day.

I looked everywhere and found nothing. Maybe it was her servant sending me a warning not to mess with her master. I looked at the servant a few feet away from me. yes, the white-haired girl, she is a servant! I don't know which class

She must be pretty good at disguise because she didn't show any trace of paying attention to me. She seemed focused on taking care of the child in the square.

Better be careful with her.

"No, my goal is to ally with you homunculus" She replied this time looking at me "As you can see, The servants of this war are very powerful, especially Assassin and Berserker"

"So you want an alliance between us, so we can survive the war," I asked already knowing the answer"Of course, even why I'm sure you won't betray me in the middle of the war and eliminate me"

"I'm glad you know my loyalty to my agreements" She smiled getting up and holding out her hand to me "Let's get along"

What? Why did she raise her hand to me? Did she not understand the irony?

"Is this serious?"

"Seriously, what?"

"Nothing" I replied with a sigh and stood up squeezing her hand "let's get along fine, I'm Alecsviel Von Einzbern"

I honestly gave up when I realized that nothing I wear of any kind

"Yuki Tohsaka" She smiled squeezing introducing herself

Her response makes my eyes light up. she was a Tohsaka, a Tohsaka without Tohsaka's attitude, that's wrong

===

"Master, why did you ally with that woman?" Lancer asked sullenly.

"I was taken by surprise," I said putting a hand to my head in lamentation "She is the exact opposite of Tohsaka Rin and doesn't understand Irony"

"Tohsaka Rin?" Lancer asked confused

"No one special" I replied with a sigh

We continued walking along the street until we reached the castle. When I noticed something. There was a presence following him, it wasn't the killer as he wouldn't show his presence

"Lancer did you notice? I asked suspiciously

"Yes master, I've already taken care of it" Lancer replied "I asked all the snakes in town to chase our Stalker"

"That's good, What would I be without you, Lancer?" I whimpered hugging Lancer from behind

"probably a master corpse" Lancer replied with an amused smile

Our relationship is getting closer. We became friends. I couldn't help it, as much as I know it wouldn't last and one of us or if we didn't both would die at the end or in the middle of the war.

The strength of friendship brought us together completely causing the barriers between us to format a level that we abandoned the awkwardness of physical touch for hugs

===

"Lancer tells me, her servant, did you keep an eye on her all along?"

"What do you mean?"

"You know? When I was talking to Tohsaka, I felt a strong murderous intention turned towards me! I think her servant threatened me, you should be keeping an eye on her."

"You mean when you were flirting with that bitch?" Lancer asked with a growl.

A growl? Why is she growling? I looked at her to question her and found a very cold and intense gaze in my direction.

"Miss Lancer? Are you by any chance mad at me? Did I do something wrong?"

"No, you didn't do anything wrong, surely flirting with that bitch was the most wonderful thing you've done in your life!"

Lancer turned his face with a snort and his pace quickened. What got into her, Is she pissed that I made a contract with another master without talking to her?

"Lancer? What happened? Talk to me!"

"I already said its nothing, master idiot"

"This doesn't seem like anything, let's talk"

"I am talking!"

"No, you aren't!"

Well, in addition to getting rid of the embarrassment of physical touch, we also started sheltering constantly.
