Tiamat, I'm going to find a girlfriend!

"You think you can just draw your sword like that?!"

"Let's not even think about it!"

"That's right, quite a few big men have come these past few days. With your frail appearance, don't waste your time."

"Going back to farming is more practical than this!"

"..."

Artoria blushed.

She knew that the two soldiers were behaving this way because of her petite stature.

hateful……

You've been underestimated!

The girl was still angry, but Ian took action first.

He didn't say a word, just stared at the two soldiers.

Despite being unarmed and wearing ill-fitting clothes.

but--

The two soldiers, however, sensed a powerful killing intent.

It was as if the boy in front of them could tear them to shreds at any moment.

Almost as if it were a survival instinct, the slightly stronger soldier raised his spear and pointed it at Ian.

"what are you doing?!"

"No, don't think you'll be afraid of us just because you're glaring at us!"

"We are..."

The soldiers stopped talking halfway through their sentence.

Because they witnessed an incredibly terrifying scene.

Ian opened his mouth and bit the spear that was pointing at him.

The teeth scraped against the gun barrel, making an unsettling sound.

Click——

Click——

The sound was like chewing food.

To the soldiers' astonishment, Ian spat out the shattered metal piece and continued to glare at them with that fierce look.

If what happened just now was a survival instinct...

Now it feels like the word "death" has been carved on the top of my head.

Artoria, of course, could not fail to notice the soldiers' panic.

She quickly grabbed Ian and began to explain.

"that!"

"My son Ian has always had great teeth!"

"Don't be afraid!"

"..."

As soon as she said it, Artoria regretted it.

After all, it sounds absolutely ridiculous.

but--

They seemed afraid to refute it.

That makes sense.

Artoria glanced at Ian discreetly.

He was still panting heavily.

Who dares to say that's wrong?

"is it?"

"Have you had good teeth since you were little?" The soldier forced a rather strained smile.

Of course he knew that this explanation was utter nonsense.

However, there's no way to refute it.

To be precise, they dared not refute it.

"I see."

"..."

"..."

"Then let's go in!"

Realizing that she would have to stand there all day if things continued like this, Artoria quickly took Ian's hand.

See you again sometime!

But after taking only a few steps, she seemed to remember something and returned to the soldiers.

"that--"

"From now on, please don't underestimate anyone."

“Some people will be very angry.”

"Uh, okay... I see."

As the soldiers stared in disbelief, Artoria and Ian arrived in the city and stopped their carriage.

Although the method was a bit unusual, Gao Di managed to vent his anger.

Artoria's mood improved considerably.

"that--"

"Thank you, Ian."

"You were just standing up for me, weren't you?"

"..."

"Ah."

Ian nodded.

"Very angry."

Artoria's eyes began to show a hint of infatuation.

After all, it's hard not to feel warm when you know that someone cares about you.

However, Ian's next words brought her back to her senses.

"Alteria smells so good."

"Hey!"

Is this an evaluation of me based on my food?!

Artoria put her hands on her hips and looked at Ian with dissatisfaction.

"But your breasts taste really great—"

The boy had barely uttered the words when he felt his mouth being covered.

That was naturally done by the incredibly ashamed Artoria.

"You're not allowed to say things like that in public!"

"I'll be seen as a pervert!"

"Also, you can't get angry easily, as it can cause a lot of problems!"

Boom——

Just in time.

Thunder rumbled in the sky.

"Look!" Artoria seized the opportunity, "Even the heavens are getting angry!"

"is it?"

Ian looked up at the sky.

The lightning that instilled fear in ordinary people seemed to have no deterrent effect on him whatsoever.

On the contrary—

With lightning reflected in his eyes, he murmured to himself.

"My mother is pretty much like this when she's angry."

"Eh?"

Artoria suddenly felt that she didn't know Ian very well.

at the same time--

Sea of ​​life.

To be precise, it shouldn't be said that it was "at the same time".

After all, this boundless ocean created by Tiamat is completely devoid of time and space.

But that's why.

The sea of ​​life also has the potential to be "linked" to any era.

And now, its owner, Tiamat, is raging here.

“Ughhhhhhhhhh——!”

"Ian, there must be other girls around you right now!"

"Don't touch them..."

"You will fall into an endless abyss!"

"Mom...will find you!"

"Mom...but I remember your taste!"

Tiamat writhed forlornly in the Sea of ​​Life, appearing anxious and in pain.

A storm has struck the Sea of ​​Life.

Meanwhile, more thunder rumbled in the skies over Britain.

13. Morgan: So I haven't been abandoned after all... (3/3)

Boom——

Boom——

Thunder roared.

Rain began to fall in the British sky.

The rain poured down from the sky, washing over the streets as if trying to sweep all the dust away into the distance.

Beside the window.

Morgan watched all of this with a blank expression.

But her thoughts were no longer on the rain in front of her.
