"Pre-sleep exercises? What pre-sleep exercises?"
"Haven't you done it yet?"
"Will exercising before bed help me fall asleep?"
Seeing Gray's earnest and innocent expression, Luvia opened her mouth, wanted to say something, but then held it back.
"It's okay, you'll be able to do it in the future. As for whether you can sleep or not, that depends on what time you go to bed."
"Well, if I weren't embarrassed to sleep until noon at your place, I'd definitely be full of energy right now."
"Indeed—" Gray looked at Luvia seriously and nodded: "Senior Luvia, apart from yawning a lot, you do look much better than yesterday, and you seem to have a unique charm about you."
Luvia was taken aback, and couldn't help but ask, "What kind of charm?"
"I can't quite put my finger on it, but I feel like you've become more charming, senior."
"You mean you've become more feminine, right?"
"Ah, yes!"
Grey was taken aback, then quickly nodded.
"So, between me and Tohsaka, who do you think is more feminine?"
Luvia smiled, and then, as if remembering something, asked.
"?!"
Gray didn't understand why Tohsaka-senpai was being mentioned, but she still answered anyway.
"I think both of these senior students are very feminine."
"Tohsaka isn't here, you can tell the truth."
Grey: "—"
To be honest, you're just flattering me by saying you're more feminine, right?
"Ah, Senior Luvia, I've finished washing up and I'm going to see Master Belsac now, so I'll be going now."
Not wanting to belittle the lowly and flatter the high-ranking, the tomb keeper girl hurriedly left the restroom.
Luvia pursed her lips, but she knew that was just Gray's personality.
Tohsaka took care of her, so even behind her back, the child wouldn't speak ill of her.
Of course, it's also impossible not to dislike a child like that.
"Ha~"
Thinking this, Luvia couldn't help but yawn again. She had been up until most of the night last night and had probably only slept for less than four hours. She was still feeling sleepy.
"Never mind, I'll just wash my face again."
As Luvia was washing her face with water, Broly walked in. Looking at his wife's round and perky buttocks facing the door, he went over and grabbed her waist.
"Who?!"
Luvia was startled when her waist was grabbed, but when she turned around and saw that it was Broly, her tense body relaxed as she was about to jump up. She even subconsciously lifted her buttocks and leaned back when she thought about some of the things that happened last night.
"Don't do anything rash, I'm just helping you vent your anger."
Broly quickly stopped her provocative behavior, and Luvia obediently stopped upon hearing this.
"How are you feeling? Does it hurt here when you woke up this morning?"
Broly pressed his abdomen and asked.
"It doesn't hurt. I train regularly, and that little injury has healed a long time ago."
Luvia's face flushed slightly, but the area that was being touched felt warm and cozy.
Books say that girls experience some discomfort the first time, but last night, apart from the initial discomfort, I only felt comfortable.
"That's good."
Broly was relieved to confirm that Luvia was alright.
"Broly, are you this attentive to every one of your wives?"
"Of course, after all, I'm the one who caused these injuries."
"Oh, could you be even nicer to me?"
"Stop fooling around, Aunt Magdalene is coming."
Footsteps soon came from the bathroom door, and Mrs. Magtan appeared in the doorway. Seeing the two people washing up inside as usual, she said, "I made some toast this morning. If you're done washing up, please go and have some."
"OK."
"Thanks."
After Lady Magdain left, Luvia looked at the boy slyly.
"Lady Magdalene is gone. Now, can you be a little nicer to me?"
Broly was somewhat helpless; wives who had engaged in pleasurable acts tended to be more clingy.
"Then you have to hold back and not make a sound."
"That's too difficult, but you can shut me up like you did last night."
Half an hour later, Gray returned home and saw Luvia just coming out of the bathroom. She asked, somewhat puzzled, "Senior Luvia, are you only just finishing washing up now?"
"Getting dressed took a little time."
"I see."
Looking at her senior's even rosier complexion, Grey nodded in agreement. Although she didn't wear makeup, she had heard that some people would put on makeup before going out.
It is said that there is a distinction between heavy makeup and light makeup, and someone like Senior Luvia, whose complexion is so good that no one can tell she is wearing makeup, must be wearing very light makeup.
And that's exactly what happened; Luvia simply applied a face mask.
"Grey, are you planning to stay home for a few more days?"
At the dinner table, Broly, drinking milk and trying to find a way to improve his condition, asked the gravedigger girl a question.
"No, I can come back anytime. I still need help from Master Webber."
"Okay, then let's go back together today."
After finishing their meal and saying goodbye to Grey's mother, Broly led his men to find Artoria.
"King Arthur!"
Before they even reached the accommodation arranged for Artoria in the village of Brakmoya, Broly and his companions saw some villagers holding baskets filled with food, bowing and worshipping the king who had been their village's protector for many years and who had now been resurrected.
Broly led his men closer, and some villagers spotted Grey, but were only slightly surprised before ignoring her.
Before King Arthur was resurrected, people who resembled him were considered miracles. But after King Arthur's resurrection, people who resembled him were imposters. Who would abandon the true god to worship a false one?
Clearly, the strategy of resurrecting King Arthur was correct, and now even if Grey makes a public appearance, no one cares about her anymore.
"By the way, what's this?"
The village chief and elders were there to maintain order. Broly led his men over, and Luvia asked them directly.
"King Arthur said this morning that he wanted to eat something and that he had a big appetite. I thought this was a good opportunity to make offerings, so I asked the villagers to prepare food for King Arthur."
The village chief explained.
Broly and the other two looked toward Artoria and saw that the young knight king was quickly finishing the food on the table in front of her in an elegant yet efficient manner. However, as villagers came one after another, the amount of food in front of her increased rather than decreased.
Artoria also spotted Broly and immediately waved in their direction.
"Broly, I have too much food here, would you like to eat some with me?"
"This food was provided to you by someone else; it's not appropriate for me to eat it, is it?"
"The people here are strange. They didn't give me any food yesterday, but this morning when I said I was hungry and wanted something to eat, they prepared a lot of food for me."
After being resurrected yesterday, Artoria was taken to patrol the streets. When she was given a break after the patrol, both the village chief and the village elders treated her like a god who didn't need to eat.
After Broly left after speaking with Artoria last night, Artoria began to feel hungry. Although it was not difficult to get food in the village, taking it without asking was stealing, which did not conform to her chivalrous spirit.
She wanted to ask, but everyone else was asleep and she didn't want to disturb them, so she endured hunger all night until morning when she finally got to eat something fresh.
"Okay then, I'll have some too."
Broly sat down.
"Who are you? What right do you have to eat the offerings we provide for King Arthur?"
Upon seeing this, some villagers immediately expressed their dissatisfaction.
"Shut up! This gentleman is an old friend of King Arthur. The resurrection of King Arthur was made possible by his great help. It is only right that he eats the offerings we provide to the king."
When the old village chief saw someone jumping up and down, he immediately appeared and slapped the jumping villager, and then explained the situation to the other villagers.
Upon hearing this, the other villagers suddenly realized what was happening and began to offer sacrifices along with Broly.
Besides the villagers, who were gathered in layers upon layers, there was also a group of outsiders observing from the shadows.
Yesterday, the resurrection of King Arthur caused such a huge commotion as the Vortex of Origin; these people aren't blind, they could see it too.
Afterwards, Artoria made a grand appearance in the village, which shocked everyone, but they didn't know what was going on inside.
The village chief told them that the resurrection of King Arthur was not due to their village, but rather to the help of a powerful figure from outside the village.
Unable to ascertain the situation, these people dared not act rashly, but upon seeing Broly beside Artoria, they quickly reported the information about the village of Brakmoya to their superiors.
"It's him!"
"I heard that people from the Magic Association headquarters once visited the Magic Marshal to try and find out about the person because of the special wine that leaked from the wedding banquet. The Marshal told them, 'If you want to die, stay away. Don't die and get your own blood splattered on you.'"
When the intelligence was reported layer by layer and reached the hands of influential people in various powerful forces, these people dared not continue to investigate.
Those who attended the wedding banquet and presented lavish gifts to the Jeweler were now allowed free access to the Clock Tower at the Magic Association headquarters.
Most of them are no match for the small forces of the Magic Association. How can they possibly investigate further? Do they really think others have no say in the matter?
Indeed, the technology to resurrect ancient heroes is excellent, and the method to reach the source is the same. If one can reach the source, one can die content after hearing the truth in the morning. But if one cannot even see the source, one will be killed. No one would do such a losing proposition.
It's dangerous for a child to hold gold, but it's perfectly natural for a strong person to hold gold.
Broly was unaware of the influence of the old man who had attended his wedding, nor did he know that because of the attitude the Jewel Elder had shown towards him in front of others, most of the world's powers had secretly defined him as "someone not to be trifled with."
Otherwise, given Gray's situation, there's no need to revive Artoria at all; he could simply show up and say a word to the representatives of the various factions, and that would be enough.
Broly, who was not quite clear about his place in the Type-Moon world, left Blackmore Village with Artoria after eating a lot of food offered by the villagers.
Moreover, they didn't hide their departure method. The way Yi Li took off with the three of them left a group of villagers and outsiders dumbfounded.
As Luvia soared into the sky once more, she couldn't help but feel a pang of感慨 (gan3kai3, a complex feeling of mixed emotions, often including nostalgia and unease). Yesterday, she had been casually carried along by a tail, but today she was receiving the same treatment as Gray.
Sure enough, her attempt to woo him worked perfectly. If she kept at it, she might just be able to beat Rin Tohsaka and win the boy's heart.
Well, I was somewhat indulging in physical pleasure last night and this morning, so I didn't really examine Broly's special magic that had appeared in my consciousness.
At this moment, Luvia, who was flying in the sky, began to take a look.
She opened the Crystal Palace panel—
After clicking into the group chat room, she exclaimed in surprise.
"What's wrong?"
. . . . .
Broly looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"Broly, tell me the truth, how many wives do you have?"
"If you include Gray and me, there are ninety. What's wrong?" (I miscalculated before. I subtracted Gatomon's multiple forms as extra individuals, but I didn't count Gatomon's multiple forms in the first place.)
Luvia: "————"
I thought it would be a competition of about ten people, but now it's nearly a hundred.
00 00
"Hahaha, Luvia, do you think I don't know you're seducing my man? Let me tell you, if I hadn't signaled Broly to take you, you probably wouldn't even be able to join us."
Back at the Clock Tower, after figuring out what was going on in the group chat, Luvia went to confront Rin Tohsaka and asked her if she knew about her situation.
Rin Tohsaka didn't disappoint her either; Naonaga showed her the private messages he had sent to Broly the day before.
"You're probably still thinking of competing with me for my favor, but little do you know that I anticipated all your little schemes. It doesn't feel good to be completely manipulated by me, does it? But now, even if you want to back out, it's too late!"
Rin Tohsaka was very pleased with herself.
"Who said I wanted to quit?"
Luvia gritted her teeth.
"Let me tell you, last night I was—"
"Ha, all those poses of yours are just things that Broly and I have already done."
"Hmph, there's plenty of time. I'll make Broly even more obsessed with my body than with you!"
"Then we'll wait and see."
Rin Tohsaka and Luvia were arguing, while Fujino Asagami, who had come to the Clock Tower to accompany Broly, was explaining the details of the two to him.
"The feud between Senior Sister and Senior Sister Luvia actually stems from their ancestors. During the Third Holy Grail War, the Edelfelt family had a pair of twin sisters who participated in the war. On the surface, the younger sister died in battle while the older sister survived. But in reality, both sisters fell in love with their master, who was also Senior Sister's grandfather, and fought over it. The younger sister, who died in battle, was actually the victor and gained a happy marriage, while the older sister, who survived, was the loser in love and returned to the family to succeed as the head of the family."
"The grudges of our ancestors have turned into something like enemies in this generation. Broly, if you hadn't appeared and married us, Senior Luvia would probably have tried to take you away to avenge her grandmother's past defeat."
"So there was such a story behind it."
Grey was somewhat surprised, with a look of schadenfreude on her face.
"Fortunately, Mr. Broly has a harem, so there won't be any losers in Tohsaka-senpai and Luvia-senpai's generation."
She said with some delight.
"There are no more 'loser dogs' now, but there will probably be plenty of jealousy and rivalry in the future."
Asagami Fujino watched the two arguing and felt that her family's Crystal Palace of Wives was about to get lively.
"Jealousy and rivalry? I do have a way to resolve that."
Broly stroked his chin and said.
"What method?"
Gray and Asagami Fujino looked over together.
"I'll challenge them to a one-on-one match to show them the importance of teamwork when facing me, and that'll be it."
"Ah, is Mr. Broly going to have a sparring match with the two senior students?"
Grey asked curiously.
"Yes, it was indeed a friendly sparring match."
Asagami Fujino nodded in confirmation of her statement.
"But will this really allow the two senior students to get along harmoniously?"
Artoria looked at Gray, and even she could tell that this sparring match was not serious.
"When like-minded enemies appear, people with grudges can indeed cooperate."
She couldn't help but speak up, using her experience as a king to confirm the feasibility of Broly's idea.
At noon, after dropping Artoria off at Emiya's old house in Fuyuki City, Broly returned to London and invited Rin Tohsaka and Luvia to go out together.
He booked a room at a nearby five-star hotel and then took the two of them inside for a long, sixteen-hour heart-to-heart talk.
In this heart-to-heart talk, Rin Tohsaka and Luvia initially clashed, but later, facing Broly's relentless and aggressive offensive, they became close partners.
The following evening, when Grey saw the two sisters again, the distant relatives were already holding hands, appearing to be getting along very well.
The two women no longer acted out of jealousy towards Broly, but instead treated each other with respect and courtesy, like sisters.
Yes, Grey felt that the two of them walked a little strangely, their steps seemed unsteady and their calves seemed to be trembling slightly.
