My Upgrades Are Invincible - Chapter 144
“Ground team come in! We saw a powerful servant approach, but the local wards prevented us from warning you all.” Romani said and for a moment I wondered why he didnt seem to care about our wellbeing, but I was remined that all the clothes these people were wearing were mystic codes that took their biometric data and sent it back to Chaldea somehow.
Well, everyone besides me as I never got a chance to snag some of their clothes or whatnot having been teleported right into the thick of it just after the bombs went off.
“Ohhh… Sorry Director, I didnt know you were busy Hehe.” Romani said awkwardly with how he saw Olga ‘forcefully’ giving me a lap pillow and I could feel Olga’s body convulse as her embarrassment rose to untold levels and she calmy moved my head aside and then daintily brushed some imaginary dust off her knees as she stood up with a cough.
“Ahem.” She coughed and then pointed at me as I stood up and spoke clearly through her blush. “Jake who has become basically our main front-line combatant was overworked and I was making sure he was fully resting and able to continue his duties when we approached the grail.” She said in a rush.
“I see… Well in any case, our sensors are reading a large mana build up at the site of the grail and our sources say within the next twenty-four hours it will reach a critical mass.” Romani paused to let us all take in his words, and I knew even more than them about how the god of all the worlds evils were stuffed within this native grail, so yeah… we definitely needed to kill Artoria Alter before Angra Mainyu blows up like a volcano and destroys this timeline and us within it.
I missed whatever nonsense Romani was spouting as he went onto ask his gatcha waifu about a forecast about what to do and Olga’s yelling at him to be more professional.
“Romani you do realize what with the apocalypse and the world literally disappearing that you shouldn’t be able to have a connection to the servers holding that gatcha waifu giving you those phony predictions right.” I said dryly shaking my head.
“So what! Magical Mari, transcends time and space with our connection and love for one another!” Romani said with all the as surety of a basement dwelling neckbeard would say he could hook up with a 2D woman if they became real.
“Romani could you project my voice to your phone and to Mari…” I said with a grin over taking my face.
The crowed looked at our byplay confused about why I was making such a big deal about this, but I had an absolutely stupid idea/plan that I needed to try.
“Fine… Not like she will answer you anyway Hmph.” He grouched but gamely did it and I heard a faint girly voice speaking somewhat muffled in the background and Romani signaled me to speak.
I cleared out my throat and then spoke confidently towards the white-haired woman’s face that appeared on Romani’s phone. “Merlin, you fucking crossdressing succubus, get out of your NEET tower and help me put a contract on Artoria, so we don’t have to kill her!”
Silence….
I saw Romani’s face pale and then turn a vile green as he realized he has been made the literal definition of being catfished, saying and doing god knows what with that online personality.
“Moohh… Jake you ruined my fun.” All the servants jumped when a flurry of pink flowers formed behind me and I didnt even flinch when a feminine set of arms crossed of my shoulders and her breasts pushed into my back and lastly her chin rested on my shoulder.
I rolled my eyes knowing how much of a troll Merlin was, and whether they decided they felt like being an Incubus or a Succubus made zero difference with how they were capable of changing their gender and appearance at will.
“Merlin, will you help me and Artoria, or do you wanna go back to Avalon or wherever else you are projecting a piece of yourself.” Merlin’s grasp tightened at that and I felt her slowly let go of me and with an other flurry of flower’s she was in front of me.
I had to hold back a mental celebration from breaking across my face as in front of me was Merlin in her prototype form and I had a sort of flashback to Freya with her inhuman beauty that threatened to draw me in as her plainly fae appearance drew me in.
She wasn’t super busty or even curvy. She was wearing a heavily decorated robe and with a hood laying on her back allowing her white hair to flow out. If anything, her greatest physical draw was those legs clad in black leggings.
“I am torn on what to do with one that fate has no strings upon… I could chance helping you and in doing so help my dear little Artoria… Or I could deal with you at great cost and possibly ruin the future I have foreseen without you.” Merlin groaned covering her face with her hood as she clearly thought about what to do but her words weren’t forgotten as Olga and Fujimaru moved behind Mash should a fight break out.
Meanwhile Tamamo, Nero went and stood beside me to protect me and lastly I saw a literal pile of glowing rocks each adorned with runes that would violently react float over and surrounded me as Cu stood behind me with the goal of skewering Merline should she do some teleporting nonsense to stab me in the back.
Thinking of doing a long chapter to wrap up this singularity so it might be a couple days till it comes out.
