Not long after, the sky began to darken.
However, the Mountain City was still bustling with activity. There were mountain people moving around, giving off the vibe of a medieval city that never sleeps. It looked rather magical.
Of course, the mountain people weren't partying all night like yesterday.
Although the mountain people no longer lacked food or water, and they could eat their fill for every meal, and their mental and physical states were many times better than before, it was precisely because of the hardships that everyone knew how hard it was to obtain these things. If they only cared about enjoying and partying without managing the city properly, it would only be a matter of time before they ran out of resources, wasting such good resources that Rozen had given them.
Therefore, after last night's partying, all the mountain people had begun to get busy spontaneously. Some were farming, some were breeding, some were herding, and some were sprinkling water to take care of the fruit trees and plants. This gave the Mountain City a feeling of prosperity.
This was the right thing to do.
Only by managing the town properly like this could the Mountain City continue to develop and not consume all of its resources.
Under such circumstances, every mountain person was participating in the labor, but they didn't have the slightest bit of resentment. Instead, they had a smile full of hope, which looked rather dazzling.
As Rozen mentioned before, he built an incomparably sturdy prison for the Mountain City. Not only did he use magic and curses to set up enchantments and protection, he also gave a batch of superior Familiar grade Golems as guards for the entire prison.
As these Golems weren't contracted, it still required a lot of skills to control them. Rozen taught the mountain people simple control methods so that they could control these Golems.
This way, even if there weren't any Servants guarding here, with these Golems, the Mountain City wasn't completely defenseless.
Rozen busied himself until the night, and he only left when the soldiers were able to control the Golems.
However, Matthew didn't follow him.
"I think I should have a good chat with Lancelot."
When she said this, Matthew's face was full of seriousness, so serious that Rozen was a little scared.
Considering the relationship between Lancelot and Galahad, and the fact that Matthew had tried to kill Lancelot based on the records of the spirit base, Rozen couldn't help but worry.
"Matthew wouldn't have beaten Lancelot to death in his cell, would she?"
That would be fun.
As the First Knight of the Round Table, if he was beaten to death by his own son … No, correction, it should be said that he was beaten to death by his own daughter in his cell, that would be too unsightly.
"He didn't die of loyalty, but of domestic violence. Tsk tsk, why am I a little excited …?"
With that thought in mind, Rozen simply left, allowing Matthew, who had a serious expression on her face, to enter the prison and have a good chat with Lancelot.
Altoria Alter, on the other hand, was in the palace dealing with the affairs of the Mountain City. She did not seem to be free for the time being.
It was not like Joan of Arc had gone somewhere to stroll around.
Bedivere was busy helping the mountain people to deal with the supplies that were shipped back today. It also took a lot of effort for those prisoners who had some problems to be incorporated into the soldiers. These were all taken care of by Bedivere.
As a result, Rozen didn't have any Servant following him.
No, that was wrong.
From the beginning to the end, there was still one Servant that had never left Rozen for half a step.
No, that was also wrong.
Half a step?
There was not even such a distance.
From the beginning to the end, the other party had been tightly clinging to Rozen, neither holding his hand nor hugging him. She just clung to him and silently followed him, which made Rozen feel very pressured.
It was the same now.
Feeling the startled and surprised eyes of the mountain people on the roadside, pointing and talking, Rozen couldn't help but open his mouth.
"I say, Serenity, it's hard for me to walk with you sticking to me like this."
Rozen smiled awkwardly and said to Shisui, who was next to him.
This Hassan didn't even say a word. He just clung to Rozen, like a well-behaved puppy that couldn't leave its master. Moreover, it was a very cute puppy. Moreover, because of the way he walked, from time to time, Rozen would rub against some indescribable wonderful places. Thus, Rozen felt that if he didn't stop it, he would really turn into a beast.
However, Serenity was completely unaware of how dangerous her situation was. Or perhaps, even if she was aware of it, she didn't care, and even felt happy about it. She softly opened her mouth.
"His Excellency Rozen is the last master of humanity, a very precious existence. He cannot be without a Servant to protect him. Therefore, for the safety of His Excellency Rozen, I must protect him closely."
That was what Serenity said.
"Close protection ah …" Rozen was at a loss. "But you don't have to be so close, do you?"
"No, of course, it's necessary." Not only did Serenity not leave, but she clung even tighter, as if her body was very elastic. She said in a good mood, "Maybe there is an assassin stronger than me among the enemies. In order to prevent the enemy from approaching Rozen, and in order to be able to respond to the enemy at any time, Serenity must protect His Excellency Rozen. If necessary, she can also be a shield, at least to block a blow for His Excellency Rozen."
Silent Tranquility said casually, but it gave people the feeling that if such a thing really happened, she would definitely do it regardless of her own safety.
To be honest, Rozen was very happy that Serenity valued him so much.
But …
(You really don't have to be so close, right? I've touched all kinds of places!)
Rozen screamed frantically in his heart.
If this continued, Rozen really felt that he couldn't hold it anymore.
At that moment, Rozen could only say so.
"Why don't we make a contract first?"
Rozen mentioned such a thing.
"Can I …!?"
Serenity's pair of eyes suddenly lit up.
Obviously, Serenity wanted to make a contract with Rozen for a long time, but this girl was not the type who would take the initiative to make her own demands. Instead, she didn't make her own claims. She was very passive and even resigned to adversity. Therefore, if Rozen didn't mention it, Serenity would never take the initiative to mention it, unless it was a dangerous situation like during the day. For Rozen, Serenity would only take the initiative to mention it.
Rozen saw this, that's why he mentioned it.
The most important thing was …
"With a contract, your ability will improve. At that time, not many people will dare to sneak in and assassinate me under your nose, right?"
Rozen had such an idea.
The problem was …
"Then can I make a formal contract with Rozen -sama instead of a temporary contract?"
Serenity's eyes showed hope.
"Formal contract?"
This time, Rozen was surprised.
