Chapter 439:

Mona Lisa didn't pursue it, but it didn't mean she didn't want to know about it. In fact, she wanted to know Roman's past more than anyone in Chaldea, but she held back every time she saw Roman's cautious look. , She was unwilling to sabotage Roman's efforts, feeling that if she really did, Roman might collapse like this. On the contrary, she will cooperate with Roman and hide the secrets that Roman is unwilling to reveal to anyone until the day he is willing to tell them.

This time, however, the Mona Lisa was really in a hurry. The appearance of Tamamo before let Mona Lisa know that Roman's hidden secrets are heavier than she thought, and her confident feelings turned out to be vulnerable. Maybe she had no hope from the beginning, and the position she was looking forward to was actually occupied by another person from the beginning.

So the first time she learned of this situation, Mona Lisa came to Roman's room. She really wanted to know what her status was in Roman's heart, she wanted to know the relationship between the two directly, and she wanted to know if she still had a chance...

"What am I going to do?"

Mona Lisa was lying on a chair and found that this comfortable-looking chair fell backwards. Although it was not exaggerated to the point of falling to the ground, this position did not allow people to rest well.

Could it be that Roman Reigns squeezed his rest time like this?

I don't know why, Mona Lisa thought of this, and Roman's aggressive face appeared in her mind again.

-Why do you keep staring at him?

If she still had a chance, it would be fine, everything would go as expected, or simply put it in place in one step, and those who didn't have a chance to come in. But what if those were true? Roman's partner... if she really has no chance...

...

"call--"

Splashing cold water on his face instantly woke him up. The stimulation of the cold water made Roman shiver, and then he picked up his toothbrush and started brushing his teeth as if nothing had happened.

Usually, he would speed up his actions to wash up to avoid making Mona Lisa wait impatiently outside, and then ran in and caught him out. Don't think that Mona Lisa won't do this, it's no longer the case for this talented and beautiful girl to do this once or twice. After Roman stayed up late, she would run in and fight him out when he almost fell asleep, and sometimes even take his Sleepy unplugged to help him put on his uniform or something.

Mona Lisa is too casual in front of Roman, and there is no image of a lady at all.

Even so, Roman couldn't get up now, or he was afraid to go out and face the Mona Lisa.

He knew that he had revealed too many secrets this time. It was just an anecdote for Lixiang and the others, but it was too shocking for others who knew the truth. It must be an experience before the summoned Servant can confirm the relationship of his partner, and the magician S (Roman) was already married when Tamamo Mae was still alive. This news will definitely cause huge waves when it is known. .

I hadn't thought of this at the beginning, but two days after returning to Chaldea, Roman knew that it was time for everyone to ask for guilt. But for some unknown reason, the experience of the London singularity was not reported. Someone must have issued a gag order to block the news, which made Roman let out a sigh of relief.

If the experience of the London Singularity is known to the Chaldean employees, terrible things will happen next. When a person accomplishes a very difficult thing, people may think that person has the ability and luck. But when a person exposes a side that is completely inconsistent with his image and accomplishes something that is simply impossible, what he gets is often only suspicion.

Roman can believe that if it is revealed that he and Xiaoyu have already known each other, they will lose everyone's trust.

When Mona Lisa appeared menacingly in the dormitory and asked him what happened with Justisa in London, he knew that Mona Lisa had understood it, and Justisa was just a It was just an excuse, she was testing Roman's tone.

Roman was brushing his teeth slowly, and at this time, even if Getia knocked on the door, he felt that he would never leave the bathroom. But no matter how slow it is, it can't be more than half an hour. If you don't go out, Mona Lisa will really run in. Roman has heard Mona Lisa's footsteps appearing at the door of the bathroom several times.

Roman quickly turned on the faucet, let the sound of running water reach the door, let Mona Lisa know that he was not asleep, then wiped off the water stains on his face and walked out of the bathroom.

When I walked out of the door, I saw Mona Lisa sitting on a chair. The eyes of the two people looked at each other.

a long time……

Mona Lisa said with a face of shame and anger: "When are you going to see it? Hurry up and change your clothes. Are you still going to stand here until noon stupidly?"

"No, that's not what I meant... Can you avoid it?"

"What's so shy about? It's not like I haven't seen it."

Even talented and beautiful girls have moments of self-deception.

Sometimes things like feelings are unreasonable. It is wrong to judge feelings with reason. The parties have no reason in front of feelings.

Roman, just like Mona Lisa thought, had a foolish attitude towards the relationship between the two, feeling that as long as there was no clarification, everything could remain the same.

This is of course a self-deceiving idea. He is also very clear about his feelings for the Mona Lisa, but at the same time he has a pessimistic attitude towards his future. This pessimism makes him have no courage to face it. It will make you procrastinate.

It is impossible to be active. He has never been emotionally active in his life. From the moment he became "Solomon", he lived like a puppet, and that mode of survival has always affected him until now. If both Mash and Rikka were involved in the rescue of Humanity, he might have stayed in Chaldea to provide logistical support, and would have chosen to do it himself until he had to.

Of course, if Mona Lisa suddenly feels impatient, thinks that this kind of long-distance running is too boring, and actively chooses to clarify the relationship, Roman will probably be "forced" to choose to admit and agree.

Bitch is hypocritical. Roman couldn't deny that he was such a slut.

After Olga Marie was sent out of the isolation room, there was a new guest in the isolation room. Every time he came back from the singularity, Roman would check Matthew's body carefully. Whether it was time or energy spent, it surpassed other work. He was careful not to miss any details, and he was also afraid that his own mistakes would make her work. Matthew's body deteriorated.

He has lost too much to this child, in this life, the next life, and even never.

However, Roman was obviously absent-minded today. He stared at the report printed out on the computer for a long time without turning to the next page. In fact, he was not looking at it at all, just staring at the direction of the report in a daze.

After the inspection, he removed the solution in the life support device, then turned on the life support device, and Matthew walked out of it.

"It took a long time to check today, Dr. Roman, is there something wrong with my body?"

Matthew looked at the clock on the wall. It had been more than forty-five minutes since she walked into the life support device, and she remembered that each routine checkup would take no more than half an hour.

As a result, Matthew found that his inquiry had not been answered, and Roman was still staring at the report in his hand, which made Matthew panic.

"Doctor Roman, has my body started to deteriorate?"

"Uh? What?"

Matthew, who was terrified in his heart, grabbed Roman's arm and let him come back from the distraction, seeing the panicked look on Matthew's face.

Taking into account the current situation, and looking at the inspection report in his hand, Roman instantly understood what Mash was worried about. He scanned the inspection report at a glance, then turned back and said, "Don't worry, your physical condition is stable now... I'm sorry, I was distracted just now. I just thought of some other things that made you worry."

Matthew let out a sigh of relief, she was really afraid of getting bad news from Roman. If her body really deteriorates due to the battle, neither Roman nor Rika will allow her to continue participating in the repair of the singularity, which means that the time Mash and Rika spend together will be greatly reduced. Matthew didn't want to see it.

She knew very well that she was going to die soon, and Roman clearly told her that her lifespan would end within a year. Although it is cruel, Matthew has the right to know his own physical condition, and Roman also hopes that Matthew can do what he likes in his short life.

She was originally a test-tube baby "born" in Chaldea. Leaving the isolation room was enough to kill her. Leaving Chaldea was even more out of reach. Furthermore, Chaldea would not allow her to do so. . Her world is in Chaldea, and the only way to experience the outside world is through pictures and videos on the Internet. Although it is very inappropriate to say this, Matthew is very fortunate that she has met the human principle burning, because it is because she has encountered the human principle burning that she can enter the singularity through the transfer of the spiritual child to experience the vast world and experience Ka In the world other than Ledi, and... encountering Rika.

The person who gave birth to Matthew was Dr. Roman, and the people who raised her were Dr. Roman and Mona Lisa, but their relationship was far inferior to that of Rika. This is a very miraculous thing. It was obvious that they had known each other for less than a year, but she and Lixiang couldn't extricate themselves from each other as if they fell in love at first sight. The most important ones, Dr. Roman and Mona Lisa were suddenly pushed aside. .

Therefore, if her body gradually collapsed, she would definitely choose to hide it from Rika, and then spend the last time by her side, taking risks with her in various eras in the singularity, leaving the last memory.

Fortunately, his body has not deteriorated to this point.

Chapter 695 Chapter 220 Who Should I Summon

"Doctor Roman, what are you thinking!?"

Matthew is very angry with Roman for sending the wrong information, especially when she finds that Roman is getting distracted again.

"Ah, sorry, I seem to be distracted again."

Roman rubbed his stinging ears and saw that Matthew's face was already showing an angry look, "I'll read the report right away, don't worry, I'll definitely read it carefully this time."

Matthew has the right to know his own physical condition, so after each routine examination, Roman will tell her the results of the report.

"Is Dr. Roman thinking about the Mona Lisa?"

"How did you know?"

Roman looked at Mash in surprise, he didn't expect Mash to be able to guess what he was thinking. Nothing happened between him and Mona Lisa, everything was just as usual, where is the clue?

"Because Mona Lisa suddenly lost her mind like Dr. Roman." Matthew showed a look of memory, "Just yesterday, after Mona Lisa learned about the London Singularity from us, she was the same as Dr. Roman. Frequent distractions, no matter how many times I say it.”

"..."

So this is ah.

Servants don't need to rest, as long as they have enough magic power, they can move all the time, and they don't need to sleep or eat. That is to say, after learning about Magician S's situation, Mona Lisa's heart has always been indifferent. I really can't imagine how she could endure to wait until the next day to find the door, and after finding the door, she left in a rush.

But what qualifications does Roman Reigns have to say?

"Did Dr. Roman quarrel with Mona Lisa again?"

"Why do you say 'again'?"

"Because Dr. Roman and Mona Lisa have had a fight already."

It seems there is such a thing. When Mona Lisa invented the magic detection glasses, she found that Roman was a magician. Because she suspected that Roman was a spy who infiltrated Chaldea, she was always vigilant and suspicious of Roman. Not even the most basic communication.

In the eyes of outsiders, this phenomenon is the result of conflict, because Roman and Mona Lisa are always inseparable, so when they think about it, there must be an irreconcilable conflict between the two.

In fact, the reason why Mona Lisa alienated Roman at that time was not to suspect that he was a magic spy, but to be angry at Roman's concealment. They should be close friends who trust each other, but the identity of the magician should not be hidden from each other, but Roman did not reveal any information to Mona Lisa, so Mona Lisa doubted their friendship.

Of course, in the end, Mona Lisa found that Roman was still the same Roman, and the identity of a magician seemed redundant between friendships.

I have to admit that although Mona Lisa is a Servant summoned by Chaldea, she has no loyalty to Chaldea. On the contrary, if Roman and Matthew hadn't been here, she would have left Chaldea long ago. Chaldea does not have a Master who can control Mona Lisa. The summoned Servant has the power to move freely. Mona Lisa wants to leave, and there are really few people who can stop her, probably.

Finding that both Roman and Mona Lisa were distracted, Matthew began to suspect that the two had quarreled again.

"No, we didn't quarrel, just..."

Just what? Because the relationship is too good, so I don't know what to do?

Saying it might make people laugh to death, but this kind of remark is not the person who will never understand the feeling inside.

Roman looked at Matthew and quickly dismissed the idea of ​​consulting with Matthew, but Matthew seemed to want to know what happened to him and the Mona Lisa.

It seems that it can only be used as a reason for dealing with juniors——

"Matthew, you are still young, you will not understand this kind of thing, and you will understand when you grow up."

"Doctor Roman, don't treat me like a child, and it's impossible for me to grow up!"

"..."

Matthew, who was angry for a while, said very terrifying words, which made the isolation room quiet for a while.

Yeah, Matthew won't grow up, and before long, her body will collapse.

Roman's heart felt a sting: "I'm sorry."

"Why is Dr. Roman apologizing?" Matthew looked disapproving and didn't seem to take his own life seriously, "I know that Dr. Roman has done his best, you have been working hard for my body, I hug you Some gratitude will not be diminished by the short life. I have always been grateful to you, and I also feel very lucky, lucky to meet you in my life, to meet the Mona Lisa, and to meet seniors. So I hope Everyone can continue to be happy, and I hope that I can successfully restore human nature and work hard for everyone’s happiness.”

Matthew shook his head gently: "So I don't want to see Dr. Roman and Mona Lisa quarreling."

"...Well, I see. Don't worry, no matter what happens, I won't quarrel with Mona Lisa. Really, I've fallen to the point where I need to rely on Matthew to cheer me up."

Roman shook his head, then looked down at the report sheet in his hand. This time, of course, he was not distracted any more. He had read this report many times, and got the result in just half a minute.

"Don't worry, your body shows no signs of deterioration. It seems that the continuous battle at the London Singularity has not reached your physical limit, but I don't recommend you keep trying. You should take good care of it in the past few days, and stop the combat training in time. But I think everyone has just returned from the singularity, so they must be tired of fighting."

"Well, Joan of Arc already proposed a rest yesterday, so in the next week, everyone will enter a state of rest. But rest is not a simple rest, we need to develop new team fighting tactics, Arturia left In the future, the combat team needs to make adjustments."

This is indeed a very serious problem.

Originally, Lixiang's team said that it was not big, with defense, support, and output. The three Servant teams were also suitable for various combat situations, among which Artoria served as the main attacker. Now that Arturia has left, the small team lacks the main combat power, so it needs to replenish powerful combatants in time.

Anyway, the person David passed directly. It is absolutely impossible to have Archer, who is good at fighting alone, as the main attacker, and it is not a versatile hero like Gilgamesh.

"Does that mean you can only summon a new Servant?"

...

"I do not want!"

The Servants of Chaldea are as scarce as the staff. Of course, the scarcity here of course refers to the period of restoration of human nature. If it is a time of peace, this group of Servants is enough to make every magic association in the world fear.

Powerful Heroic Spirits like Artoria cannot be replenished if they want to. Not to mention that powerful Heroic Spirits are already rare, and the summoning rate of Heroic Spirits is inherently low. It's more difficult.

But at this time, it can only depend on luck. In any case, it is necessary to supplement the personnel who can fight. It is too shameful to take the old man to fight.

It's just that when Roman found Tachika and suggested that she summon Servants as soon as possible to enter the squad for battle and run-in, she was rejected.

"Why? Now is the time when you need a powerful heroic spirit to protect you, why refuse? Are you planning to take David into the singularity? With all due respect, it's not that I underestimate him, that old man can't be like Artori I will protect you like Ya."

David is Archer, how could he be able to stand in front of Lixiang? Even if it is really time to stand up, David's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, and David can block powerful enemies?

Because it was a rest period, Lixiang didn't go anywhere, she stayed in her dormitory all the time. In fact, when Roman found her, Lixiang was rolling on the bed with a pillow, and it was really hard for her to let a child who escaped to stay in the room quietly.

However, it is not difficult for Roman to see that Lixiang is in a bad mood, otherwise she would not be alone in the room.

Li Xiang buried her head gently in the pillow, and did not look at Roman. After a while, she whispered, "Dad, what kind of person is Arturia to you?"

Who is Arturia? She is King Arthur, a Servant of Chaldea, and an important fighting force for restoring human nature. If you really have to say anything, it's probably Merlin's goddaughter?

But Lixiang obviously didn't need Roman's answer.

"Artoria has been summoned from the very beginning of the human body burn. She has always protected me, and sometimes she will not leave even if she knows it is dangerous. I am not saying that other people are inferior to Artoria, I just want to say that Arturia is very reliable and a very important partner of mine, but I really don't understand why she left suddenly."

This is actually not hard to guess. Even if she is a member of the restoration of human nature, it does not mean that Artoria does not have her own pursuit, but she has to suppress this pursuit because of the restoration of human nature. Or to put it simply, there is no way to make up for regrets, so it will show the appearance of no desire and no desire.

But this is obviously not the case. As long as it is a human being, there will be desires and ideals. Everyone has their own pursuits from birth to death, and they will die with great or small regrets, otherwise they will not become Heroic Spirits, but Arturia's ideal sounds unrealistic, so everyone can't Just found out.

This time, she found the holy spear at the London Singularity, and saw the hope of making up for her regrets. Of course, Arturia was tempted. During her time in Chaldea, Artoria also understood the mechanism of Chaldea, and knew that even if she left, she could find new partners to join the team, so she would leave with confidence.

Of course, Roman can't really guarantee whether Arturia has this sense of responsibility in front of the holy spear, because he has already understood from Merlin's spiritual foundation Arturia's obsession with restoring the country. Whether it was from the mouth of El-Melloi II or from the performance of Artolis, he could see it.

"Artoria is not a tool, not to mention the kind of person who can be replaced by someone else when she leaves, she leaves when she leaves, and is absolutely irreplaceable by others."

Li Xiang rolled around holding the pillow, and then turned her back to Roman.

She is still haunted by Arturia's departure. After all, she is a companion who has experienced ups and downs together. Even a few short months are enough for them to develop a deep relationship. Li Xiang actually knew very well that after Arturia left, Chaldea would inevitably summon a new heroic spirit to supplement Arturia's position. In a united team, a close friend of his own was replaced by another person. , No wonder Lixiang resisted.

Servants are different from ordinary familiars. They have flesh and blood, can speak and think, and are living people, even dead people. But in the eyes of magicians, Servants are actually no different from ordinary familiars, or in other words, mages prefer to treat Servants with the attitude of familiars.

Because they all know the difference between Servants and humans, and they know that they will part ways one day. Maybe the magician will die first, or the Servant will return to Valhalla first, but no matter which one is, it is inevitable that the Master and the Servant will part ways. of.
