Galahad sighed and went to Shizue picking her up he started patting her to get rid of the annoying thoughts. "Don't ignore me! And tell me how you're here!" Nero shouted following right behind him, he was still her Master so she had to stick to him, did she not? She did! Shizue looked at him confused, "Who is she?" she asked pointing at Nero, this is the first time she had seen the woman.
Nero leaned down and looked at her while rubbing her chin, "Is this your daughter! Umu! She's quite cute." She smiled widely and patted his back, "So who's the mother?" she asked excitedly. Galahad groaned, "She's not my-...please stop talking." he said sitting on the stairs with Shizue on his lap. Nero shook her head, "No! But what happened? You were such an upright individual, no? Were you perhaps corrupted by the pleasures of the flesh?" Galahad in the Throne of Heroes was one of the most virtuous and valiant warriors she knew, so what was this? She nodded with her arms folded and eyes closed, "Umu! Umu! A similar thing happened to many a great warrior!"
Galahad looked at her yawned, how do you go from mistaking someone's relationship to declaring him a manwhore? He groaned to others Nero may be a blessing but to him she was a pain. He smiled, "Heh, says the one called..... the whore of- I'm sorry." he muttered out before sighing, she was just this way it wasn't her fault and all that was bullshit anyway.
Nero by now had moved away from him and was observing the outsides of the castle, "This wall needs to be rebuilt! That looks stupid, remove it! And put a gate here!" she shouted from somewhere else making Galahad laugh dryly wondering what in the name of hell was going on anymore. Shizue giggled at him, "Regretting it?" she asked innocently making Galahad give her a betrayed look and stand up.
Nero landed in front of him, "Good but there is much room for improvement! Umu! Let us check the inside!" she announced and walked towards the main gates. Galahad raised his brow, "Aren't you curious about..... all those memories and how.... you're actually here alive?" he asked her, after all that was the first thing he would ask in such a situation. Nero turned around, and folded her arms before nodding, "It is indeed strange. I have so many memories, among them I have even fallen in love." she looked up at the sky a bit sad, she had been thinking about it too. "But....those feelings feel foreign. I know not why. Have you an answer Galahad?" she asked him looking at him intently.
Galahad thought for a bit, maybe since they were all copies and she got their experiences as just memories, it didn't affect actual her and she registered them as past loves? That was the most probable and so he told her just that. Nero nodded her head while rubbing her chin in thought, "Umu, It could be so, Oh I almost forgot! Do you have an opponent to fight?" after all, even if this was the actual her she had been summoned, and that was done when there was a grail war or something along those lines.
Galahad sighed and yawned, now she remembers it! "No..." he said lazily and scratched the back of his head. Shizue looked between the two of them wondering why Nero knew him for a long time, Galahad chuckled, "That's just...how she is." he told Shizue who nodded, "Got it." Nero looked at their interaction and smiled at them, at least Galahad was happy. "Oh also....I'm not Galahad." Galahad said as they walked in. "But your name is Galahad?" she responded, his name was Galahad, he had Galahad's noble phantasms and he said he wasn't him! Lies she says!
"Yes?" he said, regretting his decision anymore if this continued his status as a reincarnator would be revealed, Nero was perceptive and quite intelligent who knows she may figure it out herself. Nero opened the door and looked at the inside which was dark and gloomy. "Fine, if you say so then it must be so, Master." he had no reason to lie to her, so why should she doubt him?
Galahad nodded thanking God she had dropped the topic, She turned around and with a hand on her hips she pointed all over the place, "What is this? This is so unpleasant! How do you live here?" she asked, this place was too dark and gloomy! What was he? Some sort of Evil Lord or Demon Lord? Galahad yawned, "And now you're....insulting my home." he said lazily, well technically it was Leon's but you get the point.
She put a hand on her waist and pointed straight at him, "Umu! You are tasteless!" she announced, seriously what were those dark curtains and not even one chandelier? Galaha's lips twitched, "Well Excuse...me?" he asked, why of all the servants that could have come was it her?! She was the most incompatible with his personality! Was the Grail fucking with him? Nero nodded, that needed to be replaced, new curtains, some roses. How could she allow her Master to live in such a place?! Both of them started bickering about changing or not changing the place while Shizue giggled at their antics.
Nero sighed and shook her head, "My Master, you need elegance! Umu! That's it elegance and finesse also what's the word? Ummmm.." She started massaging her temple, Galahad questioned, "Pride?" he walked over to the stairs and sat down with a yawn. "Umu! Pride!" she nodded with a wide smile! He was a king and so he needed pride from what she had seen he had none of that! Both of them were drawn to a sound from Shizue, who was blushing heavily, "I-It wasn't me!" it wasn't her fault! She hadn't even had breakfast.
Nero looked at her and clapped her hands, "The girl is hungry, get her some food!" she said aloud waiting for servants...they never came. She looked at Galahad with a scrutinizing gaze, as he looked to the side, "Don't tell me." she said in disbelief, how lazy was this man? Galahad looked to the side avoiding her gaze, it wasn't his fault he couldn't be bothered with humans! "You were too lazy to hire servants! How lazy!" she looked up in thought before nodding firmly and pointing at him, "Umu! We're going to do something about that!" Galahad raised his hand, "Hell no!" he shouted back, if necessary he would use all of his command seals!
She narrowed her eyes, "You wouldn't." she said, that would be too wasteful! Galahad smirked, "Try me." there was no way he was doing anything about his laziness! Nero sighed, "What is this place? I'm curious. It is not Earth, that much is certain and who exactly are you?" she asked him if they had nothing to do for now then at least she could use the time to get information, she wasn't going to force him to do anything she wasn't like that, ok she would but later! Galahad looked at Shizue and smiled, he picked up the blushing Shizue and started walking towards the stable.
Nero followed behind him, "Where are you going?" she asked curiously. Galahad glanced at her from the corner of his eye and answered, "To get some food, she's hungry." that took all priority. Nero smiled, and then he claims she isn't his daughter, he put a talk with an Emperor on hold for the little girl's hunger and that was certainly....commendable! She nodded, "Umu umu, Master is a brave man." that took a lot of guts. Galahad looked at her weirdly before shrugging and glaring at the horse, he signalled towards Shizue and it nodded in understanding before walking forward.
Galahad climed atop the horse and looked at Nero who was smiling at him, "So you know how to ride a horse, Master? Umu! Let us have a competition!" she announced, she would see how good her Master was, though she didn't necessarily want a strong or genius Master it would still please her. Galahad sighed and pointed towards the other horse, she looked at it for a while before making a Riding A Skill, she would always give her best for competitions! Then she'd ask him for a reward! And tell him to make his castle better!
Both of them started riding towards the nearest city with Galahad explaining about the world and her new body, and how she was taken out of the Throne of Heroes though he definitely didn't fall asleep more than a few times during that, yup definitely didn't. This happened because once Nero realized she didn't know the way, she declared that the competition would start once the city came into view. Currently they were on the way to the city when Nero suddenly asked, "So then Master, who are you?" that was the one thing she still hadn't learned, though she was curious about these Demon Lords he told her about, they must be magnificent for them to be feared yet respected as the Elites of the whole World.
"Me?....I'm just Galahad." he answered with a slight smile and kept riding, it wasn't like his title was especially important to him. Shizue whispered in his ear, "Why don't you tell her that you're a -" Galahad quickly covered her mouth and shook his head, she'd go on and on about integrity and pride if she learnt that he was one of the Demon Lords, judging by her shining eyes when she learnt about them. She probably wanted to meet them. "Also there's no Rome here huh? Umu! Let us create Rome here then, you and me Master!" with his help it should be easy! And then Rome will be present in another world too!
"Also what no telling me?" she asked curiously, Galahad shook his head, "Not....worth your time." that would be too much of a pain. Shizue smiled mischievously, "He is a Demon Lord!" she said excitedly and quickly hid her face, the two's bickering was too fun! Galahad looked at her betrayed, had he been raising a traitor?! He chuckled, but Nero shouted, "How mean Master. To hide that from me!" she pouted and looked away, did he not trust her? Galahad looked at her weirdly and shrugged, "No you do not simply shrug it off. You apologize to a lady!" Nero told him bonking his head. Galahad rolled his eyes, "Yes of course, my lady."
Nero folded her arms and nodded contently, "Umu! That's the way!" at least he was good at listening to instructions! But there was another question she had to ask, "What actually are you, Master?" she could feel Evil and Holy elements in him and that was unnatural. Galahad sighed of course she'd notice it.
