Chapter 323 Suitable as a romantic partner
The tents were set up quickly; Shichen set up two, and Saber set up one.
There's one more thing: Irisviel hasn't done it yet.
Shichen glanced at Saber, who was staring blankly at the tent but whose mind was elsewhere, and without calling her, he knelt down beside Irisviel.
Irisviel was still looking at the instruction manual, her delicate face full of seriousness, her beautiful brows furrowed.
Shi Chen glanced at the instruction manual and found that it was still stuck on the first page.
"Alice: "
Shichen called out helplessly, but Irisviel seemed not to hear him and continued to stare at the instruction manual.
He then raised his voice and continued calling, "Alice."
"what!"
Irisviel was startled and dropped the instruction manual in her hand.
She glanced at the time, then realized what had happened: "...Why did you scare me?"
"You're just reading the instruction manual too carefully. I've called you several times already."
"Really? It must be because the instruction manual is too difficult to understand."
"Yes, I can see that." Shi Chen suppressed a laugh.
Irisviel rolled her eyes at him, clearly annoyed.
"Are you trying to make fun of me?"
"How could that be? I'm not that kind of person."
"Don't lie to me, you can barely suppress your smile."
"Cough cough."
Shi Chen coughed twice, pursed his lips to cover his mouth, and changed the subject, asking, "You're not just going to keep reading this instruction manual on this one page, are you?"
"How is that possible?"
Irisviel picked up the instruction manual, opened it, and replied with considerable pride, "I've read it twice already."
"You've watched it twice already? Then why haven't you set up the tent yet?"
"Well... I haven't fully grasped it yet," Alice Phil paused, offering an explanation that didn't quite reflect her true feelings.
"Hehe~ So when do you want to watch it?" Shichen couldn't help but laugh at Irisviel's boastful attitude.
"What's so funny! You'll understand soon enough. Go set up your tent." Irisviel couldn't keep up the act any longer and started shooing people away.
"Saber and I are all set up."
"Huh?"
Irisviel paused for a moment, then looked behind Shichen. Sure enough, there were already three tents standing there.
"You...: When did you and Saber team up?"
"While you're reading the instruction manual."
"I won't bother you any longer. Hurry up and get ready for lunch," Shichen said, getting up to leave.
"Wait, wait a minute!" Irisviel suddenly grabbed Shichen's pants.
"What's wrong?" Shi Chen turned to look at her, smiling slightly.
"I...I understand. I don't have the talent for setting up tents. Can you help me?" Irisviel's face visibly began to turn red.
"Not going to show off anymore?"
"What do you mean by showing off... I just didn't want to waste time," Irisviel pouted in dissatisfaction.
"How can you be so stubborn? How come I didn't notice it when I was tasting it?"
"Taste it? Hmm... you'd better set up the tent!"
Irisviel noticed that Shichen's gaze was on her lips, and immediately understood what he meant. She shyly slapped him and then got up to go to Saber's side.
Shi Chen chuckled and shook his head, then squatted down to start setting up the tent.
"Saber, what are you doing?" Irisviel came to Saber's side and asked.
To her surprise, Saber did not respond to her.
Irisviel blinked, staring into Saber's eyes, only to realize that Saber seemed to be lost in thought.
"Saber." Irisviel patted her on the shoulder.
"Huh? Alice? What's wrong?" Saber asked, snapping out of her daze.
"Saber, why are you spacing out?" Irisviel asked with a smile, not thinking much of it.
"Staring blankly..." Saber hesitated, unsure how to respond.
As soon as she finished setting up the tent, the scene of Shi Chen kissing her kept replaying in her mind, including that kiss and the feeling of touch, which made her feel strange.
She naturally knew what a kiss meant, which meant that Shichen really liked her.
She wasn't surprised by this, since Irisviel had told her about it every day. What surprised her more was that the feeling of kissing was so strange.
Moreover, she doesn't object to Shi Chen's advances at all. Does that mean she likes him too?
"Why are you spacing out again?" Irisviel raised her hand and waved it in front of her.
Saber's thoughts were interrupted. She suppressed her emotions and shook her head: "I'm sorry..."
"It's nothing... Is it because camping makes you space out?"
"camping...
"After all, you've always been fighting wars and have never had such a leisurely time. This difference must be making you uncomfortable, right?"
Irisviel asked with a smile.
"Well... more or less."
Saber suddenly realized that this might really be the reason she was overthinking things.
When she was a queen, she didn't have such leisure time at all, so naturally she didn't have the extra thoughts to think about random things.
Especially in romantic relationships.
Rider also said that she was a little girl who had never even experienced love.
Whether romance is important or not is unclear, but the timing is certainly suitable for a romantic relationship.
For her.
No matter how coldly Shi Chen spoke to her yesterday, she still knew it was for her sake.
"But everyone has their own thoughts. If someone could be easily persuaded to change their mind, they would have been enslaved long ago." "Hehe~ As expected. No matter what, Saber, you don't need to think so much. Just enjoy yourself." Irisviel said.
"Are you enjoying it?"
"Hmm, since it's arranged by the time, he must have some reason. We just need to have fun according to his plan." "Plan..." Saber fell into thought.
"I was just talking nonsense. Who knows if he has any plans? Maybe he just wants to play with Illya and the others. Saber, you can just play too. Don't think about the Holy Grail War right now."
"I know," Saber nodded.
There was no point in her thinking about it; what if Shichen threatened her with the Command Seal again? She was completely helpless.
Most importantly, given Shichen's strength, it makes no difference whether she is a Servant or not.
In her first Holy Grail War, she encountered such a powerful Master... Indeed, her wish was the right one.
"What are you two talking about?" Shi Chen asked as he finished setting up the tent and walked towards them.
"Hmph~ We're just talking about girls' stuff, so don't ask any more questions," Irisviel said sweetly.
"A topic between girls...:::...You two?" Shi Chen's expression was strange.
"What? Aren't we girls?" Irisviel glared at him, displeased.
"Okay, you are indeed girls... ::. Then you two do what girls should do."
"What?"
"Dinner can be made now. You two set out the cooking utensils, wash the ingredients, and then cook the meal."
"Huh?" Irisviel was stunned.
"What? No?" Shi Chen looked at her with a smile.
Irisviel looked to Saber for help.
"...Sorry, Alice, I don't like cooking." Saber said apologetically.
Hmm:
Irisviel pouted, looking at the clock with a reluctant expression: "The bosses don't hate me anymore, okay?"
"Haha~ I didn't expect you two to cook, just to set the table properly." Shichen laughed, then turned and left Ju.
"Where are you going?" Irisviel asked quickly.
"Of course, I'll take advantage of your holiday to go play with Ilya and the others."
北，
The camping trip officially began.
Lunch was very plentiful; you can grill whatever you want, as the heat is sufficient.
However, Saber ate a lot, and the groceries she bought were less than half gone. At this rate, there wouldn't even be enough for dinner.
They could buy them anytime, but Ilya and Shiying wanted to catch wild small animals, like rabbits or something.
But at this time of year, in this place, there are no rabbits, or even any other animals.
He didn't tell them the exact time, but instead accompanied them on adventures, hoping to get lucky.
Unfortunately, no matter how high Qian's luck stat is, he can't conjure anything out of thin air.
We went to the mall to buy groceries for dinner.
As night falls, the sacred fire serves as the light source, so there's no need to worry about lighting issues.
Under the firelight, everyone gathered around the grill, listening to the sizzling sound of oil, stuffing food into their mouths, and admiring the night sky. There were no tall buildings around, the sky was clear, and the stars and moon were exceptionally clear.
Tonight's moon is a waning crescent.
Two people, however, didn't even look up, their eyes fixed on the grill.
One is Saber, and the other is Frilian.
As soon as the meat is cooked, quickly reach out with your chopsticks, grab it, and put it in your mouth.
It's not afraid of getting burned.
Frillie enjoyed a sip of cola while taking revenge, which was very pleasant.
Shichen originally wanted to have some wine, but with Ilya and the others around, he decided against it and opted for juice instead.
The barbecue dinner lasted for two and a half hours before it ended. By then, it was completely dark and the blue sky was no longer visible. The surroundings were also pitch black, creating an eerie and terrifying atmosphere.
If it weren't for the barrier, it would indeed be quite terrifying.
And picking him up was the part that Shichen looked forward to the most.
