"So, if you want Excalibur, come and get it."
Vivian looked up at Asher with her legs crossed, a scornful expression on her face.
She had Excalibur completely pinned under her thigh. If Asher wanted to get the sword, he would have to pick her up.
Given this lazy fish's personality, even if he had twice the courage, he probably wouldn't dare.
Asher stared at the girl, who was clearly deliberately provoking him, looking left and right, seemingly searching for something.
"What are you looking at?" Vivian asked.
"I'm looking for where I put that feather." Asher said, his gaze falling on the feather placed on the table. He walked over and picked up the feather.
He turned and walked towards Vivian.
"Hey, wait, wait a minute!" Vivian subconsciously moved backward, "You're such a boring man! Do you only know how to force me into submission with such methods?"
"As long as it's effective, it's fine." Asher said, walking up to Vivian and squatting down. The girl, uncharacteristically, didn't struggle at all, just looked down at him.
Asher looked up in confusion, "Aren't you afraid."
Vivian kicked towards Asher's face.
Asher quickly dodged the kick. When he looked up again, he saw the inscrutable girl "tsk" in frustration, then hugged Excalibur and rolled over, pressing the sword beneath her. "I've decided. Now I won't even give you the fake Excalibur."
"If you're so capable, come and get it yourself," Vivian looked back at Asher with a sidelong glance, then averted her gaze.
Asher walked forward. Before his finger could even touch Vivian's shoulder, he heard her shout, "Help, everyone! King Arthur is assaulting me!"
Why is this woman such a rogue?!
Asher's eyelid twitched slightly. He quickly stepped forward and covered Vivian's mouth, while his other hand tried to snatch Excalibur, but she hugged it tightly to her chest, giving him no chance at all.
After repeatedly trying and failing several times, Asher finally became enraged.
Does she really think I'm a lazy fish? If so, I will definitely succeed in taking this fake Excalibur today!

"Turns out we didn't get any information from Merlin at all."
Morgan sighed, supporting her forehead. Although she really wanted to capture and interrogate that Merlin fellow, catching him was no easy feat.
"It wasn't entirely fruitless, right?" Scathach 's tone was calm as she glanced at the woman beside her. "How much of what that man said do you think was a lie?"
"A seventy-thirty split, no, maybe an eighty-twenty split?" Morgan rested her hand on her chin, "In any case, that liar, even if he knows something, would never tell the whole truth. He seemed serious just now, but it could very well have just been an act."
"Ultimately, a guy like Merlin, if you ever get the chance to catch him, you should properly interrogate him and make him realize the cruelty of this world." Morgan's expression became a bit more sinister.
Scathach remained silent, walking straight out of the garden exit.
Unlike Morgan, she wasn't one to enjoy interrogating others. Well... at least not usually too excessively in front of her beloved disciple.
As she reached a certain corner, Scathach slowed her pace and looked at Artoria, who was quietly waiting there.
Sunlight poured down, and Artoria's golden hair seemed to shimmer with dazzling luster in the breeze, looking exceptionally captivating.
"Let's go, Lily."
"What did you and Merlin talk about just now?" Artoria followed closely beside Scathach , asking with a slight hint of unease in her tone.
After all, Artoria now was still just a teenage girl.
Merlin was a mentor on her life's path. Although she never thought her Big Sister and Shishou were cruel and violent women, nor did she believe they would lay a hand on Merlin, she still felt a little uneasy deep down.
After all, when she had wanted to go with Morgan to find Merlin earlier, Morgan had flatly refused, telling her only to wait there and saying that her Big Sister wasn't the type to lay hands on people, so she could rest assured.
"Just a regular inquiry to Merlin about the whereabouts of Excalibur, then some regular small talk, and finally a regular departure from the scene, that's all." Morgan quickened her pace and walked beside Artoria, her face wearing a gentle smile.
Just regular, huh...?
Artoria's eyes flickered slightly, still seeming a bit uneasy.
When Merlin left just now, she thought she heard him complaining about Morgan being too violent or something.
"I know what you're worried about," Scathach glanced at Artoria, saying with a hint of teasing, "Don't worry, your Big Sister truly isn't the type to lay hands on people."
Morgan only moved her fingers.
"I see..." Artoria nodded softly, her eyes slightly lowered, wondering about something.
"Is there anything else you're worried about?" Scathach asked, out of a Shishou's concern for her disciple.
"Nothing." Artoria gently shook her head, looking straight ahead.
She couldn't possibly say that besides the Merlin matter, she was still a little uneasy about Asher and Vivian being in the same room when she left earlier, could she?
"Is it about Ash?" It really goes to show they're sisters.
Morgan easily discerned something from Artoria's poker face.
"If you're worried, you could have stayed there earlier instead of coming with us," Morgan patted Artoria's head. "And you can rest assured, Vivian is handcuffed with handcuffs I developed. She's just like any ordinary girl right now."
Artoria hesitated, saying nothing.
Scathach looked at the hint of worry on Artoria's delicate little face and suddenly smiled, "Do you think Vivian would lay a hand on Ash?"
Morgan was startled, then smiled and shook her head,
"That's impossible."
She could clearly feel Vivian's hostility towards Asher. Although she didn't know where this hostility came from, she truly didn't believe Vivian would lay a hand on Asher.
"I didn't think you two would lay a hand on Ash before either..." Artoria murmured almost imperceptibly.
Morgan cleared her throat, feigning not to have heard.
Scathach also remained unusually quiet.
She could defeat enemies without hesitation in battle, but faced with Lily's words, she couldn't find any rebuttal.
But then again, this was all because of Lily's help in the first place.
Thinking of this, Scathach 's gaze towards Artoria softened a bit.
If it weren't for her, she would probably still be playing the role of Shishou in front of her disciple.
Amidst a stream of thoughts, Scathach unknowingly reached the room door. She was about to push it open, but just then, a shout suddenly reached her ears.
"N-no! Don't touch there!"
"It's too late to regret now!" Asher's voice came from inside the room.
"Don't force it open! I can't believe you're such a rough person!"
The bed frame groaned under strain.
Scathach 's fingers paused slightly, and she looked at Artoria, who had walked up beside her, with a strange expression.
"What's wrong?" Artoria looked at Scathach in confusion.
"Did they set up a barrier so the door can't be opened?"
Morgan also walked forward, extending her hand in confusion.
A helpless voice came from inside.
"Keep your voice down, it wouldn't be good if someone heard."
"Who told you to force yourself on a defenseless girl like this? You deserve to be heard," Vivian said, heavily panting, "N-no, it would be so embarrassing if someone saw..."
"Just listen to me obediently and don't resist. It'll be over
soon, just a little more..."
Scathach abruptly pushed open the room door.
Inside the room, Asher was pressing down on the girl, trying to pry open Vivian's fingers that were tightly gripping Excalibur, while Vivian was struggling violently but helplessly. From their posture, it looked as if he was forcibly doing something bad to Vivian.
Scathach 's expression stiffened slightly.
Soon, she smiled nonchalantly, sizing up Asher.
"It seems Lily's earlier worries were somewhat necessary."
