Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan - Chapter 258: Let's get another Servant!

Due to Saber’s shout, the rest who didn’t care about this drizzle also started to get wary. After all, Saber wouldn’t make such a judgment so suddenly without reason.

However, what was the reason?

Even those who were stupid or an idiot could only tell one reason.

Caster.

The only Servant that hadn’t appeared until now was the one that caused this drizzle.

However…

What was the purpose of this drizzle?

Saber also couldn’t escape as her cowlick was slightly wet because of this drizzle. The others who didn’t even have the “Intuition” skill were also unable to escape from this drizzle.

Saber only had a hunch, but this drizzle should be coming from a similar source to the one that observed her and Irisviel.

“Saber, why did you act so exaggeratedly?”

“Isn’t it just a normal drizzle?”

Either Lancer or Rider thought so.

As for Archer and Berserker, had the two already fought… or was it a one-sided domination? Either way, neither of them cared much about this drizzle.

“Saber…?” Irisviel looked at Saber with confusion.

Saber took a deep breath and calmed herself while wondering why she was so angry for some reason. Yet, she knew this wasn’t in time for this irresponsible act as she needed to focus on the battle before her since, for some reason, Berserker was glaring in her direction ominously.

Others also didn’t pay attention and focused on the figure of Berserker and Archer.

Even though they were quite wary previously because of Saber’s shout, they didn’t feel anything from this drizzle. It did nothing. Whether it was cursed or any other negative effects, nothing affected them from this drizzle.

However, even if it did something, they didn’t feel worried since, as heroes from various timelines, all of them had their pride, and they believed they wouldn’t be defeated even with this small trick.

Caster?

They believed that they would defeat this Servant as it was one of the weakest Servants.

Only… among the Masters some wariness naturally appeared since they were different from a Servant. While they were “Magus,” their bodies might not be much different from a human. While this drizzle might not affect Servants, it might do something for the Masters, right?

Yet, fortunately, it did nothing.

They quickly let go of their worries and think of this as Saber’s small trick to overthink them.

—Or a trick to get them to let their guard down?

However, this thought was something natural to appear as Saber was an enemy. Even if her actions told everyone that she was a righteous knight who would fight her battle in a fair and just manner, they had only met her for a moment. Even if they didn’t know much about her, she was still the King of Britain, so it should be normal for her to have the suaveness of tactic, right?

Yet, what was wrong with this tactic?

Many of them couldn’t help but laugh inwardly, thinking that, like her appearance, her tactic was like a little girl trying to deceive an adult.

However, Saber didn’t care about their thoughts as she only felt wary as if something might appear sooner or later. Though strangely enough, she didn’t feel that this existence might bring her danger, instead a warmness that she had never felt before.

Only…

Why did she feel angry for some reason?

—

“Really?”

“Yes.”

“….”

Scheherazade stared at her Master for a moment and didn’t know what to say. Even if she could narrate a story for three years without being killed by King Shahrya, she wouldn’t be killed, yet… yet at this moment, she didn’t know what was the purpose of Tamazuki, her Master, to dirty everyone on the port, whether they were Servants, Masters, and all with his urine.

Why?

She tried to think of the reason, but at the same time, she also thought this act was similar to a certain animal.

Yes!

It was like…

“A dog, right?’

“Ah, um…”

Scheherazade lowered her head since she knew it was an insult to compare her Master to a dog.

“You don’t need to worry. If you compare me to a dog, then it is good.”

“Eh?”

She was confused.

Was the modern world starting to think that comparing someone to a dog was akin to praise?

Yet, she didn’t feel surprised since, as someone who was in a high position, she also had seen many weird things. If she didn’t, then how could she create so many stories, right?

It was because she had heard and experienced many things, along with her talent, that she could create many masterpieces that could make the violent and cruel king who killed all the maidens he bedded every night learn about patience.

Though, she was still confused as to why Tamazuki dirtied all of them with urine.

Was it his hobby?

Was she going to drink his urine too?

Well… she had drunk his other liquids previously, so… while it might be hard to understand and accept for a while, she didn’t really have much of a rejection.

“No, I don’t have such a strange hobby.”

Tamazuki’s lips twitched as he sighed. “Can you just ask me normally instead of overthinking something weird?”

He didn’t have a hobby to dirty someone and let someone drink his urine!

This move… has a meaning!

“Then, why?”

Her green alluring, and beautiful eyes stared at his profile curiously, waiting for an answer.

“It’s to track them.”

“Track? You mean you pour your urine on them so you can know where they are?”

“That’s right.”

With the scent of urine on their bodies, whatever they did, even if they cleaned up, it would be impossible for them to escape from him—even if they ran away to the end of Earth.

Frankly, while his sense of smell was strong, Tamazuki wanted to have insurance since all the Servants were unique and they had many strange things. Moreover, in case something strange joined the Holy Grail War, then he thought to maximize his profit and escape to a distant galaxy.

While it might seem like he was flirting and giving commentary on the fight all the time, Ava helped him control part of his body outside of the planet so that in case something happened; he could quickly run away.

Running away might seem like a cowardly move, but he didn’t think so since if he died, everything would be worthless.

What was wrong with running away?

When he got the power, then he would truly give his revenge on everyone and devour all of them.

“I know that this might be strange, but I am not a human.”

“…you are not a human?”

“Well, I can be a human, too, though.”

Scheherazade was confused, but she held his hands firmly and softly said, “Master, whatever you are, I will be with you.” She could tell that this power was impossible to possess by a human, but who cares?

Even if he wasn’t a human, then it was okay since she knew no matter who he was, he would protect her, and that’s enough since that’s her only wish.

By his side.

Moreover, she wasn’t human anymore, so they fit perfectly, right?

Tamazuki stared at Scheherazade for a moment and thought that he must be lucky to meet with this married woman.

“…thanks.”

Scheherazade smiled and then hugged him tightly. “You are cute, Master.”

“Idiot, do you think you can make fun of your Master?” He looked at her helplessly.

Scheherazade only laughed, but then she couldn’t laugh.

“By the way, let’s go. We are going to start.”

“Huh? Now?”

“Yes.”

Then with a mischievous smile on his face. “We are going to get a Servant for you.”

“????” Scheherazade.
