Chapter 83: Bai Song: So you're the Chaldea, huh?
Listen, listen, is Bai Song speaking like a human?!
"What have you guys blown up?!" This is nothing but an extreme prejudice!
Although they do blow things up frequently, and when Bai Song called them, they were indeed fighting and had lightning in their hands, but hey, they hadn't ignited the lightning yet when a deafening explosion came from outside the window, startling them all.
Before they could recover, Bai Song called them over, so this is undoubtedly a pure fabrication!
After Tom and Jerry exchanged glances, they decisively made up their minds that they would not take the blame for this mess. Thus, the cat and mouse both shook their heads.
After shaking their heads, the cat and mouse almost simultaneously pointed their fingers at each other.
"...Who actually did it?" Bai Song felt a headache seeing Tom and Jerry's behavior. It seems like every "morning" he wakes up, he has to be woken up by an explosion.
This time it was alright; he wasn't awakened by a bomb exploding in his face but rather by the sound of a bomb somewhere unknown.
Bai Song hopes that the next time he wakes up due to a bomb, it will be because of the noise of an explosion in the distance.
"Enough! I want to see blood flowing like a river!" Just as Bai Song was about to confirm once again, suddenly, a very familiar female voice came from outside the window.
Hearing this voice, Bai Song promptly went to the window and looked out into the front yard.
At that instant, Bai Song's pupils contracted abruptly. "Chaldea?!"
Outside the front yard, the Chaldea group was facing off against a dog that had been blown up and turned into a carbon-like color. It was no surprise that the dog was Spike, whom Bai Song had summoned just before.
Looking at this carbon-like dog and the black explosion effect on the ground that only appears in games, Bai Song immediately understood that the earlier explosion must have been Chaldea blowing up his guard dog, Spike!
"Darn, they really are after me, huh?" Bai Song's face darkened upon seeing the Chaldea group. This is bullying to the point of crossing the line.
It's one thing to chase after him during the day, but now they're sneaking into his house at night? And they even attacked his dog?!
If he doesn't reclaim his dignity, his name will be written backward!
Bai Song waved his hand and took the lead, heading towards the bedroom's exit. He shouted at Tom and Jerry, "Tom, Jerry, come with me. We're going to teach them a lesson!"
After exchanging a glance, Tom and Jerry seemed relieved that their owner wasn't picking a fight with them. They quickly caught up with Bai Song's pace and walked proudly and confidently towards the battlefield together!

As the perspective shifted back to the outside of the front yard, Spike had already recovered from being blown up and turned into a carbon-like state.
If it weren't for the black explosion marks on the ground, no one would have thought that a Servant had self-destructed here. Well, even with those marks, passersby would probably just suspect it was a leftover fireworks display.
Chen Gong removed his spectacles, wiping them gently, and then placed them back on, yet he saw nothing more than a trivial Spike.
"Impossible... General Lu is invincible. How can the power of self-destruction be so feeble?!"
Observing the extremely small radius of Lu Bu's self-detonation, Chen Gong almost resorted to self-inflicted blindness.
He had witnessed countless self-detonations by Lu Bu, but never before had he witnessed such a miraculous event like today. This couldn't even be considered a self-destruction by a servant. The power of even one of his casual spells would surpass this self-detonation.
Noticing the gaze from the opposite side, Spike innocently raised both hands in front of him.
Then, he gestured towards the spot where Lu Bu had been standing just a moment ago, maintaining his stance with both arms pointing at the location of the self-detonation, as if saying, "Don't look at me, this has nothing to do with me; he blew himself up."
"Chen Gong, the one you summoned might not be the real Lu Bu," Gudako said with a complex expression as she glanced at the position where Lu Bu self-destructed, then turned to face Merlin.
"There's nothing else we can do, Merlin. Everything... is up to you now."
"Wait... Wait, wait, wait! I have contributed to the organization. You can't just betray me like this! Let me see my master!" As he noticed Gudako's gaze, Merlin's eyes immediately widened, feeling that this might be the end for him.
Gudako must have felt that Lu Bu's self-destruction lacked excitement and wanted to blow herself up as well.
Upon seeing Merlin's reaction, Gudako raised her left eyebrow in surprise and said, "Huh? What are you talking about? I meant for you to take the lead."
"Ah... So you mean I have to rely on myself," Merlin said upon hearing this, suddenly feeling less flustered about whether he should inform his own master to use Command Seals and call him away.
"But, are you sure you want a mere caster like me to take the front lines?"
With those words, Merlin even pointed at himself with the index finger of his right hand, intending for Gudako to seriously consider whether it was really fine for a worthless person like him to go to the front lines.
"The problem is... besides you, no one else here has a Strength parameter of B," Gudako said, her expression filled with frustration as she glanced at Chen Gong and Mashu. She looked at this team, which seemed like a gathering of talented individuals, and couldn't believe how disadvantaged they were!
Upon hearing this, Merlin quickly looked around, finally noticing this fatal problem.
Mashu was a defensive-type Servant with unremarkable numerical values, and her defense... it had been confirmed that it couldn't withstand the bite of that large dog. As for Chen Gong, he was a firework-type Servant, weak in actual combat ability except for being able to sacrifice his teammates.
And now, this worthless person himself had become the core of the entire team?!
Looking back at Chaldea, which had fallen to the point of relying on someone as useless as himself to turn the tables, Merlin suddenly felt a darkness engulf his vision. Well, he thought, perhaps it was better to just disband this pathetic Chaldea altogether.
Although he thought this in his heart, Merlin still stood up under the threatening gaze of Fou.
Some should know that he is also considered a supportive Servant, or what they call a 'turner.' With B-ranked strength and the identity of King Arthur's swordsmanship teacher, plus the ability to 'turn' himself, if you think about it, it seems... I'm not that much of a waste either, right?
However, just as Merlin made up his mind, preparing to settle things with Spike once and for all...
"Boom!!!"
With the sound of a kick on the door, the front door of the house was forcefully pushed open from the inside.
A man, with a cat on his left side and a rat on his right shoulder, hands in his pockets, took a step out of the house in an indifferent manner, just like a member of the yakuza, shouting.
"So, you’re the so-called Chaldea huh?!"
