Chapter 155: It's All Master's Orders
"Sen... Mmm~ Ah... Haa... Can you slow down a bit, Senpai?" Feeling Gudako's gradually accelerating speed, Mashu, as a Demi-Servant, was starting to struggle and even gasping for breath.
On the other hand, Gudako continued her high-speed sprint without breaking a sweat, showing no signs of being an ordinary human. If a normal person reached her speed, well, no normal person could achieve such speed. After all, humans have their limits, unless... she's surpassed being human!
Meanwhile, Mashu started to fantasize about whether her Senpai would carry her while escaping. After all, there was a precedent for that. For example, during the third Singularity, Gudako had escaped from Oryou and Chacha's clutches while carrying Beowulf!
However, Mashu was bound to be disappointed this time. "Slow down? Absolutely not possible!" Gudako firmly responded without even considering slowing down to match Mashu's pace. On the contrary, she increased her speed.
Come on, she was being chased by a cat and a dog. If she slowed down now, she might as well sign her own death warrant.
Though if Mashu got caught by those two, there was a high chance she would once again fall victim to the whims of the sadistic Schrdinger, turning into the brightest fireworks in the sky, just like before.
In that case, Gudako could only invite other Chaldea Servants to watch the fireworks together with a heavy heart. How tragic that would be.
Maybe... Maybe it's better to sell off Mashu?
However, just as Gudako was preparing herself for the possibility of Mashu turning into fireworks in the sky and then returning as ashes, a thought struck her.
What if she needed to call for support later? She might still require Mashu's shield for that. At that moment, Gudako hesitated on whether or not to sell Mashu.
"Momentary Reinforcement!" Gudako took a deep breath and directly used a Mystic Code on Mashu.
After all, she still had a bit of a conscience, Gudako thought.
"Mmm~ Ah, I feel... the warm flow... It's Senpai's magic power."
Mashu, who was previously struggling to keep up with Gudako's pace, suddenly felt a warm flow within her body, and her speed increased significantly.
She immediately realized that Gudako had strengthened her once again. With the Mystic Code reinforcement, Mashu, who was on the brink of being sold off, finally caught up with Gudako's pace and quickly began to chase after C Chulainn, who had started running first!
C Chulainn was proud of his cleverness in selling off Gudako and Mashu. But when he turned around, he saw that Gudako and Mashu had appeared right behind him, not far away, with a distance of at most 10 meters between them!
Confused, C Chulainn, known for his speed as a Lancer Class, asked in a rapid tone, "Why are you both so fast, huh?!"
"Hehehe~" Gudako responded confidently and tsundere-like, then immediately answered C Chulainn's question, "Because... we are being chased by a dog-like creature, and only by surpassing you, we can survive."
"So... please let us overtake you, C Chulainn!"
After saying this, Gudako's expression once again returned to the previous panicked state, as if some water goddess representing wisdom had possessed her.
"I don't want to!" C Chulainn was dumbfounded by Gudako's words. How could there be such shameless people in the world?!
Despite C Chulainn's strong resistance to being manipulated by Gudako, the distance between them kept getting closer, and it was only a matter of time before he was overtaken.
The thought of getting beaten up by that dog again made C Chulainn increasingly panicked. In his panic, he turned his head and shouted at Gudako, "Stay away from me!!!"
However, in that short moment when C Chulainn yelled, Gudako and Mashu successfully reached the same position as him and rushed forward side by side, showing signs of surpassing him.
While C Chulainn was still turning his head, he caught sight of Tom, riding on Spike's back and wielding the red spear, relentlessly chasing them from behind!
Clearly, the speed of those two beasts was far beyond his team's. Realizing that he was about to be caught and beaten to death, C Chulainn couldn't help but feel a bit sad as he questioned the two pursuing beasts behind him.
"Why are you chasing me?!" C Chulainn asked, puzzled.
Tom, riding on Spike's back, held Spike's dog leash called the "rein" in his left hand and wielded the red spear he had snatched from the person opposite to him in his right hand. He was about to rush forward to beat someone and then report back to his master.
Upon hearing C Chulainn's seemingly senseless question of 'why are you chasing me', Tom didn't bother to answer. Obviously, it was all because of the master's orders. Instead, Tom stood on Spike's face, kicked his rear end hard, and then sat back on Spike's back, trying to use this method to make Spike accelerate.
While the effectiveness of the acceleration was uncertain, one thing was clear - Tom's kick earned him Spike's wrath easily. Already being ridden by a mere cat was infuriating enough for Spike, and now the cat had audaciously kicked his rear end. It was unbearable!
Taking advantage of the fact that their master couldn't see, what harm would it do to give Tom a good beating?
However, just as Spike was about to pull Tom off his back and give this unruly little cat a thorough beating, Bai Song, holding a take-out bag, walked out contentedly from a nearby alley.
Seeing this, Spike was startled, and the intention to act on Tom immediately vanished. Come on, who would dare to beat up the master's cat in front of him? At the very least... they had to find a more concealed place to do it.
Thus, Spike made up his mind. After Bai Song went to sleep tonight, he would give this damned little cat a good thrashing to vent his frustrations.
Meanwhile, Tom, sitting on Spike's back, remained blissfully unaware of the unfortunate fate awaiting him tonight. He continued to wear an evil grin as he looked at the group of people ahead, gradually catching up with them.
This was... another hunting moment of the day!
