Gilgamesh is silent with his triumphant grin while Lanling glares at him, seemingly cursing him at the back of his mind. The tension suffocates me in the chilly confines of the car. I must be glad we secured a place to stay, but I can't sit through the ride in relief. Lanling has been a polite and nice person toward us. Now, he must be thinking Gilgamesh is an opportunist for taking all Shikoutei and more. I want to clear that bad impression of my Servant - or as what Gilgamesh introduced me - of my king as his attendant.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3465BTNKd5
Ah! Right, the application Shikoutei mentioned. That could be a good way to break the ice.328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCfHtzFaxH
"Um... Lanling? Could you help me with the app your President talked about?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eKyMdSZWN
His irises flick to my direction and he replies in a monotonous voice. "Ah yes. I nearly forgot about that." He slips a hand into his coat's breast pocket and pulls out a card, showing it to me. Written on the face looks like a network name and its password.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhytwkasw2o
His voice is as cold as his eyes. But I think the warm demeanor he has when we first met suits his delicate features better. Maybe this could be a subtle display of his other side, that even someone comforting like the spring breeze can turn into a winter's blizzard. I feel both nervous... and amazed.328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBjQzXHBs4
"You care about the President so much. If not, you wouldn't mind his agreement to an outrageous deal."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTErhct24g
"Of course! Most Gracio-- The president chose me for the role of executive secretary. I am honored to serve by his side, and in return, I must fulfill the task to the best of my capabilities and aim to exceed his expectations," he replies passionately.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBNYbMSLVC
I beam at him. "I think Shikoutei is blessed to have you as his secretary."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkLQCpev4v
His eyes widen and trail away from me. I could see his cheeks blushing lightly though his face is colored by the sunset rays from the tinted car window. "T-Thank you for the compliment."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJl3xRASJ6D
My terminal, which I will call a smartphone from now on, chimes. Various notifications pop up on the screen which become the key to lessen the tension between us for the whole trip as Lanling and I tinker with my phone. I only came to realize the time when the car stopped in front of a skyscraper.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKg84EThj7
Stepping out of the car and into the building, the place screams the word 'luxurious' and I feel like an outsider. The decor, the chandelier, even the tiled walls and floor are all sparking clean and sophisticated. However, the simple outfits -- nearly plain-looking -- of the people inside comforts me that even a nobody can stand inside this tower. I could hear Gilgamesh's voice, probably praising the place, but I am captured by the beauty of it all. Bursting my bubble is Lanling's call to follow him to the elevator.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4IzvFBrFA
Riding the elevator brought back memories of the Holy Grail War matches. Without a battle to expect, now I can grieve for their defeat.
If only the effect of losing was a lie, I would find a way to save everyone.
...Please be a lie.
I want to believe they are alive on Earth.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyohojEIGaQ
"Despite how ludicrous the deal is to me, you have immensely aided us with the company's pressing matter. The president is in a great mood today," Lanling's voice wakes me up from my wishful daydreaming.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJROpwU2lgH
Gilgamesh replies though Lanling's words aren't directed to him. "As he should be! My treasures are exceptional. He may as well sing more praises of me for bestowing him part of my treasury!"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDt51wjAvDK
Oh King of Heroes, you might as well be called King of Pride.
"Please excuse my king. That's how he is when his negotiations become favorable."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBKlzrKzqj
Lanling nervously laughs. "Haha... I guess emperors and kings are not so different after all."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0nzQrM0gX
Before Gilgamesh could retaliate, the elevator chimes and its doors slide open. Lanling walks down the carpeted hallway leading to another set of steel double doors. Potted ornamental plants give the futuristic urban interior a breath of fresh air (pun not intended). He taps a keycard onto a panel resting beside the right door jamb, and we step in as soon as the doors are hidden within the walls.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnAM25HVJa
The scent of lotus wafting in the room and a gray-haired man in red Chinese robes and round shades welcome us. With only a meter apart, I can tell he is of old age but his stance contradicts my impression of elderly men. His posture reminds me of military men awaiting orders from their leader.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRSSljsH3H
Lanling turns on his heels and presents the man to us. "Allow me to introduce the current caretaker of this penthouse. This is Mr. Li Shuwen, head security administrator of the company, and he will serve as your guide within the premises of this hotel throughout your temporary stay."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHlMd5BGJE
Li Shuwen? Why does he share the same name as Julius's Servant? But the Li Shuwen I know is young with red hair and driven by the thrill of competition and bloodlust, characteristics that I don't see and sense from this man. Could it be coincidence?
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PzJlfmzoB
The man called Li Shuwen has his mouth ajar. Even with shades on, I could feel his eyes fixated on me. I wonder why, but I must play the part of an attendant named Francis Xavier for now. I lower my head and bend forward to show respect.
"A pleasure to meet you, Mr. Li Shuwen. We--"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggXOmFGBnO
Li Shuwen bursts into a loud laughter. "What are the odds of us meeting again, here of all places and as a guest of honor of Most Gracious and Majestic Emperor to boot? Hakuno Kishinami, is this what you have wished for -- a new life?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTppxhSDoVj
By his words, he must be THAT Li Shuwen! For him to manifest in a different form, his class might have changed as well. Who knows, maybe he is a Berserker now and charge at me at any moment!
But no, I should pretend I am not Hakuno Kishinami. Gilgamesh gave me a faux persona in a spur of the moment back there, maybe to hide the fact that I am his Master. I am Francis Xavier until we are sure we didn't enter another Holy Grail War. I shouldn't let my cover be blown and waste his effort!
"You must be mistaken. I am no--"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2UqCpOMpq
"Where is that swordsman in red? Have you severed your contract with that blade-wielding Archer?" He continues to ask.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yfaS1EpBv
A blade-wielding Archer? Well, Gilgamesh is an Archer upon entering the Near Side of the Moon and has swords in his arsenal, but I never made him wear red.
"Again, sir, you must be mistaken. The glorious ruler before you is King Gilgamesh, and I am his attendant, Francis Xavier. It is a pleasure to be acquainted with you."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFhrgGpFOQ
Li Shuwen closes the distance between us with a lean forward and pulls his glasses down. I blink quickly as he scan me from head to toe. Beads of cold sweat start to form on my forehead as I feel his irises bore holes through me. Did he see through my facade?
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BToArKd3u
A firm hand holds me by the shoulder and pulls me backwards until my back hits metal. Gilgamesh speaks up, his face and voice filled with contempt. "Cease this foolishness at once! Not only do you mistake my attendant for some mongrel and invade her spatial boundaries, but you also fail to recognize the presence of a king first and conduct yourself in the manner rightful to the throne."
He shifts his gaze to Lanling. "Secretary, this insolence before me shall not be excused. Replace this guard at once, and the new one be stationed in that hallway, never to set foot within this quarters unless beckoned! It won't be long until this becomes my new throne room. Boundaries must be established and respected."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi436VVvl9j
Gilgamesh, you have taken so much already. Now you order Lanling around?!
"My king--"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngzcTXsU77
Lanling lets out a quiet and short sigh. "It is as you say. We deeply apologize for our misconduct. I shall let the President know of your woes immediately."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5ieGT6I7q
Li Shuwen bends forward until he is folded in a right angle. "I apologize for my behavior, Your Highness, Miss Attendant. I have left the keys of the rooms and the keycards to the penthouse on the center table. Please make yourselves at home."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09ySxuerQM
As soon as Li Shuwen raises his upper body, he follows Lanling in exiting the room. They bow once more as the metal doors slide shut. I take a step forward to see them off and apologize for the abrupt request, but Gilgamesh holds me firmly in place and glares at the distant door. I hear faint footsteps soften beyond the door, the elevator chime, and the two men likely stepping into the elevator. A few seconds later, Gilgamesh releases me.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsympTsvw5
With only us in the room, my legs suddenly surrender maybe out of nervousness, but Gilgamesh catches me before I drop to the hardwood floor.
"Are you alright?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkvsyunyuu
"Yeah. I must be tired. But that man..."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCJW6OAX33
Gilgamesh brings me to the sofa to let me sit. He takes the spot across me and crosses his arms. "He knows you're a Master. Are you two acquainted?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtxwLtql47
I nod my head. "When Lanling introduced him, I wasn't sure because the Li Shuwen we know is a young Assassin. You know him as the Berserker of Julius's ghost. If he knows my name, then he could be the same Heroic Spirit."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJzkINVXAJ
"Ah, that darkened crimson maniac," he comments after crossing his arms. "We have given the corrupted hero his peaceful slumber, and the dead will remain in the underworld. I surmise he was summoned again but manifested in his older days."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDfrEqff6P
"Summoned? Then that would mean..."
The possibility of placing ourselves in another war of any form causes my chest to tighten. I don't want it. I don't want to be the reason for more people's eternal rest.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQHxUTuqCl
"That conclusion in your mind is still uncertain until we learn more about this civilisation we landed on. Ease your worries, Hakuno."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr58oKYeUL
That is the first time I heard Gilgamesh's voice low and soothing. I can tell he is trying to comfort me, and I don't want to fail him as his Master. I have to cheer up!
I take a deep breath once, then another, then I give him an assuring nod.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmueERaTYG
He replies with a grin. "I commend you for being quick to pick yourself up from the rubbles of your mind." He tosses a set of keys to my direction which I catch in reflex. "Now explore our new abode and choose a room of your own."328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AKG8KpCDy
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZK5maJ894
"Any room? Even the one with the largest bed?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYcZi33w6q
"Should that be what your frail body longs for, then shall be it. Your body must be aching after a long time resting in that pitiful bed of the room." He then chuckles. "Know your greed, Hakuno, but I trust you are aware of that by now."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1LeN7lTY7
Oddly in a bright mood, my king. That rare opportunity must be grabbed and taken advantage of! Now filled with excitement to have my own room, I dash to the flight of stairs, run my way up, and check the rooms in the second floor.

Done with checking all the rooms the penthouse has to offer, I now sit to the right of Gilgamesh who currently owns the chair by the short side of the rectangular dining table. It seems Li Shuwen left us with sets of beverage, fresh produce and home cooked meals in the fridge along with complete condiments and powdered drinks in the cupboards. I made myself a glass of hot chocolate while Gilgamesh poured himself a glass of wine from the mini bar, which we are enjoying at the moment.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxCx5TDcK6
"Not the best, but palatable," Gilgamesh rates.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgxAVelYPk
Taking a sip of my first ever prepared food jolts me. I burnt my tongue, but I could tell it was sweet and truly chocolatey. How long has it been since I last had sweets? That doesn't matter. I am drinking cocoa without worries for my life, and that's all I care about for now.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjt3TZSp3A
"Why the big smile? Are my candies not enough to satiate your taste buds?" Gilgamesh inquires.
"That candy and this are different. Like how you discern every wine in the world. Besides, I earned those candies from hard work in labyrinths."
"Chocolate, huh. Then you have your fondness with cakes. If it weren't for your digital body, you would be a walking ball of sugar!"
"Now that's impossible! I would have burned those sugars for walking and running a lot. I'll throw that back to you. If you weren't a Servant, you would probably have a huge belly with all the wine you drink daily."
"Wine improves digestion, you fool! A large lump of fat around the stomach is the aftermath of neglect in one's physical health, not by drinking liquor every waking moment!"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEaWddthEd
I stay silent for a short while not because he is correct, but because I suddenly realize we are bickering over small things like normal friends. I start giggling at the abrupt inflection.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJSIRwVI9x
"Laughing now? Are a few screws loose in that mongrel mind of yours?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8g6KWZx0d
I shake my head with a smile. "I never thought a time like this would occur to me. Debating with drinks on hand, relaxing in a posh place like this. Something this normal feels alien to me. An unexceptional human that finds normal unnatural -- it's funny."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYtjrxlwGF
Gilgamesh swirls his wine as he stares at me. His lips stretch thinly into a smile. "Let this be the last time you make me repeat myself. Set aside your skill in worries and cares. This is a place where you can learn the joy of living. May it be the strange, the unknown, and your so-called normal, enjoy it all for it is the meaning of life, Hakuno!"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA2rnchM4z
"I wish this would last long, not a calm before a storm."
He huffs. "Then you should make haste with the investigation tomorrow. I expect tremendous results."
"What do you mean me? Aren't you tagging along?"
"A king cannot leave his fort except when the tides of battle calls for him," he explains. "Furthermore, I cannot take the emperor's word about your mark simply contradicting your demeanor. He must have known your left hand bears a Command Seal and not an ordinary tattoo."
"You mean to say he was humoring my excuse?"
"Exactly. To remain true to our fabricated story, I must remain here within the mechanical sight of the emperor." He shows his palm to casually point to one of the security cameras installed in the penthouse which is facing to him.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMgsTw7b73
While Lanling and Li Shuwen were leaving, he activated an audio recording jammer by sneaking his hand between my back and his torso, leaving the security with only visual feed from this penthouse.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrlatY5JRW
"Wouldn't they be troubleshooting the audio right away?"
"I believe not. As they watch over us, all they would hear is music. They might as well think we are holding a party with only us two."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBYglfy9W2
So that's why he can address me as normal and we can hold this conversation. I really hope his countermeasures work. "Then I should act like I know nothing."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXufnYIBwDh
"Hoh? Seems like you developed a good head on your shoulders. How amusing of my Master." He sips his wine shortly. "Though I will let you off alone, I shall not let you walk into death's door. Wear this."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXATl3xnv8Z
A small ripple of golden light appears beside my left hand on the table and immediately disappears to thin air. A gold ring remains rested on the table that I soon pick up. When I turn the ring between my fingers, the light reveals an engraving of some foreign script.
"Should your life be in danger, tap this ring against metal and a Bounded Field will surround you. If I remember correctly, it can withstand an explosion of one grenade."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVJcWgiX3j
I try the band ring onto my fingers on my right hand. It then fits my little finger. "That is weaker than a Servant's Noble Phantasm, but enough for me to make my escape or hide." I follow it with a sigh. "If only I had my Mystic Codes, my chances of survival might be higher."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYLHBuSqTg
Gilgamesh starts chuckling on his seat. Before I could ask, a door bell chimes throughout the living room. I leave the dining area to walk to the living room and check who our visitor is.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2zytjMUPm
The screen of the door security panel shows Lanling along with a female in suit and twin bun hairstyle behind him waiting at the hallway.328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiovVRakL3
"Ms. Xavier, may I speak with King Gilgamesh?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wbJFR4cDC
I turn to Gilgamesh to see his response.
He shakes his head. "Entertain them outside."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8ly75H2Iz
After pushing a button on the panel, I step to the doors and escort myself to the hallway when the metal panels slide open.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj40wLCv0WF
With the doors closed, Lanling, his companion, and I exchange bows.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oqnEVMIKe
"The President extends his apologies to your king," Lanling begins. "As such, he has sent me to bring a new guide." He steps aside and gestures toward the female behind him. "I'd like to introduce Ms. Qin Liangyu, one of the most trusted bodyguards of the President."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqHvJHPbHN
The lady guard covers her right fist with her left hand at chest level.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRQApM5Lv8
"Kin... Riyan..." I struggle to follow with Lanling's pronunciation of her name.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWHn6eVHSO
"You may call me Shin, Lady Xavier," the lady cheerfully greets.
"Nice to meet you, Ms. Shin." I shyly imitate her hands.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4HLtIAEku
"We have informed her of King Gilgamesh's request to have her stationed in this hallway," Lanling continues.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVbeJYDNvI
Gilgamesh's demand was sudden, but having no strangers while we rest is a good decision. Who knows what would happen in our most vulnerable state.
"Umm, about that. I will be leaving tomorrow for a short walk. Could Ms. Shin stay here to guard the king?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvS1QSE3Li
Lanling glances at Liangyu, then reverts his attention to me. "We have particular orders to provide security for both of you."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iIsw1eh85
I wave my hand side to side and smile nervously. "But the king's safety is my top priority. That is why he agreed to send me alone tomorrow to survey the area for delicacies. His Highness should have Ms. Shin's aid."
If I am to gather information, I should be alone when going out.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0US5t6Bmw
Lanling places a hand on his chin contemplating my request. But after a while, he straightens his back and nods. "Very well." He turns to Liangyu and nods at her.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDA54rICpX
There is one more thing I should ask. "Ah, Mr. Lanling. How about that ALNavi app? We weren't able to install it back then."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3r3Gsn1y4
Lanling's face lits up. "Thank you for reminding me!" He slips his hand to his breast pocket and hands a small memo to me. "Here is the penthouse's wi-fi access. Then, search the name in the app shop."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnU2lpGlf6a
I study the memo held with both of my hands. Ten devices available to connect huh.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsidLFWiwp1
"With all matters sorted now, I must return to my station," Lanling bids as he beams a smile.
"Thank you very much for all of your help! Let's have some tea on your day-off."
"Ah, that would be nice. See you again, Ms. Xavier." Lanling bows before turning to the elevator.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOi6eaZ2f2
Now I'm left with Liangyu. I can't let her stand all night long. "I'll take out a chair from inside for you, Ms. Shin." Then I hurriedly open the door and dash inside without waiting for her reply.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoG7U88pUgj
With Gilgamesh's help, I brought the table and chair in my chosen room outside for Liangyu to use. I gave her drinks and snacks from the kitchen to keep her full and refreshed. Though we consumed a few drinks, we were uncertain if the food in the fridge were safe to eat. He was worried about poison while I thought Li Shuwen prepared them for someone else. We headed into our rooms without eating dinner.328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeOIxnTcmY
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOtb92dJDi
The two rooms upstairs both have a balcony, Gilgamesh's room facing the northern half of the city while my room facing the southern half as stated by my phone's compass. I enjoy the cool breeze and the nearly authentic sky of this new place. What kinds of people will I meet? What opportunities will I discover here? Would I be interested in schooling or working? Are there animals here? There's so much to find out, and I hope this peace would last.328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhKypSyHcO

Numerous screens in a five by five grid line up in front of a man in suit. This pairing repeats three more times in a well-lit room, an old gent and a youthful man standing behind one of the suited men.
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92bIDZ5Xx3
"That young girl... How should we put it..."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡon5UPyWL4W
"What about her?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrp0bMEFomm
The youthful man with hair close to touching the floor exhales. "We have seen all things odd in this land. But that pair is one of a kind. Not that we judge, but a king in full body armor to have such a young girl in school uniform as a secretary... Is this what the humans call worry?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzOpCtrHrx
"Please let me hear your thoughts, Your Majesty."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCJoiJagtc
"Could the girl be forced to work under him?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LyuaFI9ac
The old man's jaw hangs ajar. With a fist covering his mouth, he clears his throat. "Most Gracious Majesty, for you to bother yourself with a stranger, your kindness knows no bounds."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib0tK9BDdv
"We like her humility and manners. The air around her feels welcoming." The younger man turns to the old gentleman in red. "Are you certain she bears a different name? That she has lied to us?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyWbSx4LgP
"If she is who I believe to be, there must be a valid reason for her coverup. It is not in her nature to do evil or succumb to it."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03Qs9tFZqi
"Hmm... Then we shall send you on a mission. Identify her reason for working under an egoistic king. Ah, but do not spy on her or employ drastic measures. She shall not be harmed."
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNBYq9b1AJ
"Is there a particular manner on which I should commence this mission?"
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6DipKOZUM
"You seem friendly with her as we have observed from the footage." The long haired man hands the older one a leather wallet. "Find her and spend time with her!"328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYL0mcGMbA5
328Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZE6w5zLNY
The old man in red stares at the other, reluctantly accepting the wallet. Shortly, he begins to chuckle. "I understand, Your Majesty. I shall present myself to you with news tomorrow."
