章 275: A night talk
After killing Kayneth El-Melloi, Zoe returned to the house where they were residing.
Since they had arrived in this universe, Drako had called it Nasuverse, life had been very different from when she lived with Artemis.
The constantly moving life she had while serving the goddess was over, following a rather sedentary stage.
Since they didn't need money (for some reason, they were very wealthy), Zoë had found herself at a loss for what to do. As much as it fucked her up, Zoë turned to Drako for advice.
Drako gave her two possible outcomes.
She could participate in Drako and Mordred's training, or she could help Kuroka with household chores.
In the end, she had chosen to participate in both.
The days training with Drako and Mordred, as well as helping Mordred with household chores or even playing with little Sakura, passed quickly. But she felt that there was something missing in her life.
Why were they there, what was their purpose?
For a whole year, it seemed like they did nothing. Every time Zoë asked Drako, he replied that they had to wait for the Holy Grail War to begin.
But he didn't do any preparation, or so Zoë thought.
The reality was that he didn't need any preparation.
"How does it feel to hunt again?"
Zoë snapped out of her thought world and looked at Drako.
"Pretty good. Looks like you had fun too."
The way Drako looked was peculiar. His clothes were all stained with a black substance, quite disgusting in Zoe's eyes.
Having lived with him for quite some time, the physical changes his Master had undergone were quite obvious to the Archer-class Servant's eyes.
His height had not changed. His face had not changed. His physique didn't seem to have changed at all, but Zoe could tell. His physical body had taken a leap in capability compared to the last time they had seen each other.
Zoe had felt the burst of draconic aura, and she had also felt her own strength increase. The one responsible for this was none other than Drako. He had once again killed a powerful opponent.
"What was the Servant?" Zoe asked.
"Caster."
"Then there are only five other Servants left. Do you intend to kill them all?"
Zoe had discovered the relationship Saber, and Mordred had from the very moment she had seen Kiritsugu's Servant. Obviously, Drako already knew who this Servant was and the relationship she had with Mordred.
All Servants who come from the Throne of Heroes and participate in the Holy Grail War have a wish, this was something Drako had taught her before. Mordred's wish was to repeat the test that Artoria once performed. But Drako seemed to doubt that this was Mordred's true wish. Or, rather, he seemed to know what Mordred's true wish was, even when the girl herself seemed to have no knowledge of it.
Now, what was Artoria's wish? Zoe was genuinely curious.
"Yes, my intention is to kill them all."
Drako did not hesitate to answer. Moreover, the look in his eyes made Zoe feel as if he knew the true intention with which she had asked the question.
"In this war, I do not intend for any to survive. However, ten years from now, there will be another war. Perhaps, in the next Holy Grail War, I will get some of the Servants to join our cause."
Zoe narrowed her eyes as she listened to Drako.
"Are you saying we're going to participate in another war? How long are we going to stay in this world?"
"The war we are participating in will have a winner who will refuse his prize, causing a disaster that will destroy much of the city. Because of this, ten years later, the Holy Grail War will repeat itself. My goal in coming here is to become as strong as possible, both individually and collectively."
Drako had to make the Fate Point he had used to come to the Nasuverse from DxD pay off. And even though he had already received five Fate Points by saving Sakura, he still wanted to squeeze the gold mine that was the Nasuverse.
(Five points because he had annihilated a route).
"That's good to know. But... what are we going to do for the next ten years?"
Although Zoe had been alive for a long time, she had always been actively doing something. Whether it was hunting or training new hunters, Zoe always had something to do. She had endured a sabbatical year, but she didn't know if she was going to last ten years just the same.
Drako put his index finger and thumb to his chin, thinking about what answer to give Zoe.
"Truth be told, I don't have a concrete answer to your question. I had thought about training, traveling, and learning the magic of this universe; why don't we talk about it another day with Mordred and Kuroka?"
Drako hadn't really thought about what he was going to do in these ten years. Zoe was right, just training wasn't enough. Or, rather, that would be martyrdom.
Zoe looked in the house's direction where they lived, which was only about ten meters away. Kuroka and Mordred were inside, waiting for Drako's arrival, while little Sakura should already be sleeping.
"Yeah, it's best if we talk about this with everyone."
She was no longer a Hunter of Artemis, but a Servant of Drako.
Even though she missed her old group, she didn't regret joining Drako.

Hi, guys!
Author here talking to me dear readers ;)
Sorry for the little amount of chapters I'm posting. Not only here, but on P atreon as well. I'm not going to promise anything, since it seem that I curse myself everytime I do one promise (everytime something happens and I don't have the time to write).
Today I'm not here to talk about writing. I just want to tell you guys I created a twitch channel.
Yeah, TWITCH.
It would be great if you come pass and give me a follow and write something like "Hey, I come from webnovel. I love/hate your nice/shitty FANFIC".
My main language is Spanish (así ya sabéis mis panas latinos y españoles, podeís escribir en español), but I have no problem with speaking English (I think that I'm not bad with it).
I will be playing lol with some friends like the good otaku I am, but it will be really chill and I can read all your comments there.
We can talk about the fanfic, what do you think of it, your ideas you have... I will be answering every question in Spanish o English. You can also know a little bit about me, the person behind this fanfic [I have the cam on :)].
Here is the link: https://www.twitch.tv/er_patogeno15
