Chapter 801: Karna, the Heel, and the Empress

Karna was lost in thought; he always felt a familiar and intimate power not far from him.

It felt like his father, yet also like his close friend, occasionally mixed with an impulse akin to that of a mortal enemy.

As Karna muttered to himself, a green-haired youth clad in armor walked over to his side.

"Hey, Lancer. What's wrong? Why do you seem so distracted? This isn't the kind of situation that should happen to an expert of your caliber."

"It is nothing, merely recalling some matters. What about you, Rider? Why are you wandering around here instead of adjusting your state for the coming battle?"

Hearing Karna's words, Achilles leaned against the doorway, looking toward the direction of the Yggdmillennia family, and said, "I don't believe there are many Servants on the Black side who can compare to me this time. To be honest, even among us on the Red side, only you can pique my interest in a fight."

This was not Achilles being arrogant; it was mainly due to his perfect-rank *Diatrekhōn Astēr Lonkhē* + Lin Ye's favor. With these two skills stacked, he could ignore 99.9% of attacks even without standing on the sea. Especially now that Lin Ye's Authority had been enhanced, it was even better—Achilles possessed the absolute defense of an immortal nature whether he stood on the sea or bathed in sunlight.

In other words, to kill Achilles, one must possess Divinity of rank A or higher, and there must be no seawater or sunlight nearby. How many people in total could satisfy these conditions?

And as it happened, Karna just happened to be able to satisfy these conditions, which made the combative Achilles particularly interested in him.

However, Karna did not want to fight Achilles; after all, they were now companions on the same side.

"If you want to fight, we shall have a bout after we obtain the Holy Grail."

Achilles: "It's a deal!"

Karna: "It's a deal. Just make sure you don't die before that time comes."

"Tch." Achilles confidently patted Karna on the shoulder. "Rest assured, I have my uncle's blessing; even if you die, I won't."

"That is good." Karna nodded.

He did not care about the uncle Achilles spoke of. No matter how powerful Achilles' uncle was, could he be stronger than Lin Ye?

Just then, Atalanta, who had cute cat ears, also walked over and said, "Semiramis wants us to go over. She says the final Saber is arriving, and wants us to go and get acquainted."

"Understood, Auntie." Achilles nodded and followed her.

Hearing Achilles' words, Atalanta's pretty face flushed red, but she did not refute him and walked directly toward the hall.

And at this moment, in the hall.

Shirou Kotomine (Shirou Amakusa) and Kairi Sisigou had officially met.

At this moment, Shirou Amakusa looked at Kairi Sisigou before him and said, "Mr. Sisigou, welcome."

Shirou Amakusa's smile was very infectious; however, it was useless on the necromancer Kairi Sisigou. He still said, "I am also glad to meet you, Father Kotomine. Very well, let us skip the pleasantries. Please disclose the intelligence regarding our side's Servants and the opposing Servants." ===== CHAPTER 803 =====
