Chapter 4 - New Faces but New Enemies

(After Gabriela have managed to make the contract with Rogue Archer)

Now I feel my mana being shared between Saber and Archer. It gives me a slight "discomfort" but it doesn't bother me at all, it's allpsychological.

Gabriela

— "Now... What should we do?"

Saber

— "Well, we should find more Rogue Servants."

Gabriela

— "More?? Uuugghhhh..."

Rouge Archer

— "Honestly, I agree the more allies the better, but we also can't overload the Master's mana. She's not made of iron."

Saber 

— "Yeah, you are right... But since we're already here, let's continue exploring the city and find other informations."

Gabriela 

— (mumbling)... Good gried..."

And in the blink of an eye, Saber and Archer hide their spirit forms, and we continue walking around and maybe with luck we can find other Rogue Servants out there. The city continue calm in the morning, nothing special. Some cars are passing by me, people going to their works - nothing out of usual. The morning wind begins to die down as the summer heat begins to hit my skin, even on this big ass fog. I honestly think I should get a tan this summer once this war reach the end. The only thing I have to do is to survive until there.

But now that I think about it, I still don't know Saber well, I don't know who he is, or rather, who he was in the past. Diana said it wasn't a good idea to do that, but having a little information here and there doesn't hurt; besides, I need to know who I'm dealing with. Same thing with Archer. Maybe once we finish this walking I will do that and talk with both. .And now I understand why history lessons are important... So I could have an idea who is Saber and Archer, but a little adventure and curiosity never hurts...

...

(Two hours later)

We've been walking for a while and nothing... Zero. No servants or anything. Maybe is better going baclk home. Maybe I should go out again at night. It's risky, yes, but I have to. I just can't expose myself so much.

Gabriela (bored)

— "Guys, look... I think is better we going home. We've been here for ages and nothing. Maybe we'll come back tonight. What do you think?"

Rogue Archer

— "It's too risky, you know that? I think it would be better if you didn't do that. Especially for someone who is a newbie, I don't really trust that, no offense."

Saber (noble, calm and determined)

— "Master is right. We should go out tonight. It's the perfect time to investigate. I am a knight of God and of Master."

Rogue Archer (confused)

— "Aren't you being a bit... naive? And a Knight of God? Thats a bold declaration."

Gabriela

— "I mean... Obviously we're going to go out carefully, we're not going to go out like crazy."

Rogue Archer

— "I am against the idea but if Master wants it, I will not insist."

With everyone in agreement, we returned home. I walked on the streets I already passed before. It didn't take long to get home either since Im a quick paced person. 

Once I spoted my house between fog, I take out my home keys doing the usual jiggle metal it does, but I felt a massive huge tingling all over my body when barely I step in. I immediately become tense and scared.

Gabriela

— "What the- What is this?"

Saber (Becoming visible again)

— "Looks like someone put a Bounded Field here"

Gabriela

— "Bounded Field?" 

Rogue Archer (Becoming visible again)

— "It's basically a magical barrier but who put this here?"

Saber

— "I might know who put this Bounded Field..."

Then my house door opens... And Diana appears at the door.

Diana (with a silly smug)

— "Hoh~ The housewife arrived... And with new company."

Gabriela

— "WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE, YOU MIDGET?!"

Saber (suprised)

— "Oh? Is Rider's Master."

Rogue Archer

— "I wasn't expecting a new ally like other Master."

Diana

— "Hehe~ Let's say your grandpa was kind to me, Gabi. Now get inside,I have new informations."

Gabriela

— "This is the last and only time you will enter in my house!!"

I get inside
