Type-Moon, but the Servant is Tom

Chapter 158: Mashu Sold! Yikes.jpg

"Mashu, what are you doing, Mashu!!!" Seeing Mashu still in a daze, Gudako immediately halted and shouted loudly.

"Huh? Oh!" Upon hearing Gudako's cry, Mashu finally snapped out of it and tried to reach out to catch the rather awkward-looking wig.

But... she was a step too late. Due to Gudako's sudden toss, and with Mashu in motion, she didn't have a chance to catch the wig. Her right fingertip was merely an inch away from it!

Nevertheless, Mashu didn't give up hope; she was still trying!

"Ha!" With a tight grip, a dog-chewed shield suddenly appeared in Mashu's hand. It had a distinct design, being a round shield with a gigantic cross structure. It served not only as a defensive shield but also as a weapon with the extension of the cross, which Mashu often utilized in her attacks.

Now, she attempted to hook the longest part of the cross shield as an extension of her arm, trying to catch the wig that was about to fall to the ground.

To her delight, the wig was successfully hooked by her shield. "Ah, I did it!"

"Great, I'll leave this wig in your care for now, Mashu!"

Seeing Mashu successfully grabbing her wig, Gudako was relieved. However, Gudako chose to keep her distance from Mashu and leaned toward Cú Chulainn, who was running on her right side.

"Senpai, why are you...?" Mashu asked in confusion, watching Gudako move away.

But before Mashu could finish her question, she suddenly realized a very serious problem. Gudako had ripped off her wig because Schrödinger said the one with orange hair was Gudako, and the cat and dog were chasing Gudako. Since her senpai had orange hair, it meant she must be Gudako.

But now, the orange hair was no longer on Gudako's head, and Schrödinger's instruction was that the one with orange hair was Gudako. So, the current Gudako was not Gudako.

Furthermore, the orange hair was now in her hands, so...

Mashu was startled, realizing, "Oh no, does that mean I am Gudako?!"

Moreover, because they had taken several twists and turns, Schrödinger was no longer able to visually track them. In other words, the cat and dog would no longer receive any information support from Schrödinger and would only assume that anyone with orange hair was Gudako!

Understanding this, Mashu trembled all over, looking back at the cat and dog who were now chasing after them. They had already recovered from the blinding glare Gudako had shone in their eyes earlier and redirected their pursuit towards them.

Witnessing this scene, Mashu was immediately in panic. She now realized, understood it all – Gudako tossed the wig to her to divert the hatred!

Realizing the truth, Mashu urgently shouted to Gudako, "Sen... senpai, aren't we partners, senpai!"

"Mashu~ I won't forget your sacrifice~" Gudako, with her gleaming bald head, responded with a gentle smile and decisively chose to accelerate!

Gudako was so determined to escape because she knew she wasn't betraying her teammate. If she were to really sell Mashu, she would hesitate for a few seconds at least. But now, there was not even a hint of hesitation.

She knew Mashu would not be harmed; after all, Schrödinger seemed to want to capture 'Gudako' alive, so he wouldn't harm Mashu.

As long as Tom and Spike were busy dealing with Mashu, Gudako could seize this opportunity to escape. Then, she would use the Command Seals to summon Mashu once she was safely away.

This way, not only would she be safe, but Mashu's safety would also be guaranteed. Of course, if Mashu suffered some minor beatings during this process, all she could do was mourn silently. But that was not the point.

The most critical part was when Gudako had thrown the wig, she used the Mystic Code's inherent adhesive Magecraft. Except for her, it was almost impossible for others to pull it off, as demonstrated by Cú Chulainn's failed attempt to remove the little black dress earlier.

Thus, after she was safe and summoned Mashu using the Command Seals, her only wig would be summoned alongside her, as it was stuck to Mashu's shield.

No one would be harmed in this plan. It might not be a true, perfect plan, but what plan could be called perfect? None!

At least... that's how Gudako saw it.

"Senpai!!!" Watching Gudako leave, Mashu's heart sank. It was evident that Gudako was about to sell her teammate again!josei

Having witnessed Gudako selling teammates before, Mashu had only tried to stop her attempts with limited success. Usually, her efforts were in vain, and Mashu would end up relenting in the end. But this time, she couldn't compromise on Gudako's action because... this time, Gudako was selling her – Mashu herself!

"Ha!" With her left hand grabbing the orange wig attached to her shield and her right hand tightly holding the shield with a dog-bitten mark, Mashu attempted to remove the wig from her shield.

However, using all her strength to pull the wig would severely impact Mashu's running speed. In less than two seconds, Tom, riding on Spike, caught up with Mashu from behind at an incredibly swift pace.

"Hehe↘ Haha↗ Hahaha↘!" With an evil grin, Tom seized the opportunity and the right distance. He stuffed the obstructive red spear into Spike's mouth, then leaped onto Spike's head and pulled out a lasso from behind.

Holding the end of the lasso in his left hand and continually swinging it in the air with his right, Tom now looked just like a cowboy from a Western movie – a cowboy ready to rope a mare!

Having aimed at Mashu and with the lasso now at sufficient speed in his right hand, Tom decisively threw the lasso towards Mashu!
