Chapter 131: Red Archer is Dead!

"C Chulainn is dead again!!!"The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

Gudako, with tears streaming down her face, cried out these words while looking at C Chulainn's motionless right leg, which had only twitched a few times before. She did everything she could to utter this sentence.

If an uninformed person witnessed this scene, they might have mistaken Gudako and C Chulainn's relationship for something special. But as the only one fully aware of the situation, Mashu was not misled by Gudako's theatrical display. In her eyes, Gudako was always a drama queen, capable of pulling off any outrageous stunt.

However, what Gudako did today was undoubtedly beyond theatrics. Despite her two Servants being attacked and gravely injured, Gudako's first concern was the enemy who launched the assault?!

Especially Archer-san, who lay motionless since being struck. Gudako seemed utterly indifferent to his condition.

Did such a contemptible predecessor truly deserve to exist?

"No, Senpai!" Mashu, lying on the ground, shouted at Gudako with a helpless expression.

Upon hearing Mashu's words, Gudako, who had been pretending to cry, suddenly froze.

After scratching her head, she seemed to realize the meaning behind Mashu's statement. She clenched her right fist and struck it against her left palm, as if a light bulb had switched on. "You're right! This is the first time C Chulainn died in front of me. The 'again' doesn't belong here!"

"Instead, I should say C Chulainn is dead. I'm sorry, let me try again." Gudako's face turned red, and she scratched her head before making the suggestion.

"Cough, cough." Gudako covered her mouth with her right hand and coughed twice to regain composure.

After the coughing fit, Gudako immediately rubbed the corners of her eyes with both hands, making them appear reddened from crying naturally. She took out a mirror to confirm that it indeed looked like she had shed tears. Satisfied, she nodded.

Gudako then crossed her fingers in front of her chest, assuming a prayer-like posture. With a sorrowful expression on her face, she shouted, "C Chulainn is dead!!!"

In his final moments, combining his actual injuries with his contemplation, Red Archer seemed to have realized something, and his pupils slightly contracted.

"Could it be... a Noble Phantasm specifically targeting Archers?!" He couldn't believe it. It was his first mission, and he was so excited. But within half a minute of starting, he was struck by a powerful Noble Phantasm. If nothing unexpected happened, he was surely done for.

"To rest assured." Gudako confidently patted her chest, creating ripples like waves. "I'm here, nothing unexpected will happen!"

She had to save her only Servant. If she didn't, how could she capture the Servants in this Singularity?

With those words, Gudako headed towards Red Archer's location. She was prepared to administer emergency treatment to this Servant she had just brought along but had lost so quickly. She herself couldn't use Magecraft. The emergency treatment was a function of her clothing.

Arriving in front of Red Archer, Gudako extended her right hand confidently and muttered, "Emergency Hand..."

However, before Gudako could finish uttering the name of the skill, Red Archer turned into a mass of blue particles and disappeared completely before her eyes.

"...Huh? What the...?"

Just as Gudako completed the last syllable of the skill name, she witnessed Red Archer turning into a cluster of particles and dissipating within the ruins. "Oh well, it's over."

"I thought you said nothing unexpected would happen, Senpai." Seeing Red Archer completely fade away, Mashu couldn't help but cover her face with both hands, unwilling to accept this tragic reality. "He's dead, and it's all your fault, Senpai!"

"N-no problem. Don't panic. Even if you panic, it won't change anything."

With trembling hands, Gudako turned her gaze towards Mashu, looking flustered, and gave her a thumbs-up.

"It's okay. I still have Saint Quartz. As long as I break the stone, everything will be fine!"
