Chapter 139: Chapter 22

Why was it, I was the one being seduced here in Chaldea? Olga was needy and needed love and validation to function with all the stress in her life, Gudako was a perverted goblin Gatcha addict... And Tiamat was the definition of indulgent affection to the utter extreme.

Literally, Tiamat was the Beast of Indulgent Love

Now Artoria Alter was adorably rocking back and forth with her cheeks almost puffed out like an overstuffed chipmunk as she ate the delightful food. I knew she wasn't in the right state of mind to call her out on that whole calling me her queen bit so I just enjoyed my food and continued and when Artoria finished the spread we finished our feast with a rootbeer float to wash down the food.

"Hmm... Indeed your culinary skill is equal to your skill in pugilism, now if only you had true skill as a swordsman." She said with some teasing in her voice and I raised an eyebrow.

"Why do I need to be a good swordsman when Godkiller is a better swordsman than I will ever be? Plus while my sword is busy sticking its sharp pointy ends into my foe, that leaves my mental focus open to punching the foe in the eye to blind them." I said shamelessly making her lips twitch at how I had won all our spars by disarming her using my superior strength and the fact that Godkiller was perfectly capable of defending me and attacking at the same time.

I wasn't stupid, I knew I wasn't a Musashi who could cut through space and time, or even concepts with sheer dedication to a single slash and state of mind reaching enlightenment... I liked to simply punch really fucking hard, to make reality itself bend over and call me uncle.

Was far simpler really.

My whole fighting style, was based in my body's adaptive hyper regeneration and hair, allowing my true finishing moves in brutal close-quarters combat that permitted me to tangle with gods and monsters. And Artoria for all she was a great swordswoman with a powerful noble phantasm that could likely beat my regeneration, was still a good deal physically weaker than me allowing me to manhandle her and take that noble phantasm from her.

"You can still better yourself." She said flatly and I retorted.

"I will take that advice when fancy swordwork beats me in a straight fight."

Her eye twitched and then she huffed with a small smile coming to her face as she said conversationally. "Either way, I assume you are ready for the next Singularity?" She questioned and I smirked as I teased.

"Artoria... You cannot burn use Excalibur Morgann to burn France away."

A deceptively strong hand slapped my shoulder as she rolled her eyes and then she spun on her heels making her short skirt to flap outwards to show some thigh as she strode away and as she reached the doors of the cafeteria she looked back over her shoulder with a heartwarming smile as she said cheekily.

"Enjoy doing the dishes, Blake!" And then as my teasing smile died and I was about to demand she help, she literally ran away like a fucking coward!

The next few days were a blur of getting to mess around with Gudako and Mash, and with taking an hour a day to check in on Olga, to force her to sit in my lap to get some head pats so she didn't get grumpy. But beyond those interactions, the surviving A-Team members were still in a coma recovering for the stress of the bombing and the healing.

All told, preparation for the next Singularity was going perfectly until we hit one major snag in things. Tiamat was not a happy camper at fucking all in being told she was not coming to the Singularity.

"Tiamat, the whole next singularity is literally focused on dragons and dragon slayers. I am not saying the enemies could control you, but what if they could still push you to do wrong things even if they cannot totally control you? To say nothing of any dragon slayers attacking you straight on?" I said exasperated at her being fucking petty enough to grow to a height of five meters so she could hover over me and express her 'disappointment' in my refusal to allow her to come.

"Blake, we need every Servant on deck. If the worse case occurs, you can use your own Command Seals to send her back to Chaldea." Da-Vinci cut me off and my face twitched at the thought of fucking Jeanne Alter controlling both Tiamat and Fafnir and having to fight both of them.

Gudako patted my shoulder with a bright smile crossing her face as she said happily. "Blake, it's fine. Tiamat loves you too much to get NTR'd away from you right Tiamat?" She said looking over to the motherly dragon who had returned to her normal size and at hearing Gudako's question Tiamat paused.

Then Tiamat spoke in honest confusion. "I do love my summoner... So I don't think so, but if they have a tool or Noble Phantasm that steals contracts as Blake does, I cannot be sure what my mental state would be." She answered somehow curious about what would happen and I held in a twitch as Gudako flushed and began muttering about degenerate servants.

A loud cough rang out and Olga Marie Animusphere, the very Director of Chaldea folded her arms under her chest as she spoke imperiously. "Now is the time! We will be arriving in France not far from Orleans where the signal for the Singularities core disturbance is... Your mission is to acquire the grail and the master's Ritsuka Fujimaru and Blake Barriss are to also acquire supplies to be ferried back through Blake's spatial storage devices." Olga spoke giving a quick debrief and as the Rayshifting machines hummed to life Olga had only one thing left to say.

"Be careful Ritsuka, and Blake keep her your squishy and impetuous master from getting killed like a fool." She finished and I heard Mashu mutter almost possesively about how she was going to protect Gudako making me hold in a giggle at how cute she was even as rainbow light surrounded us with Tiamat holding my arm as we were shot through space and time... To the weakest nation in human history which made sense with it being the first Singularity
