Under the blazing sun, the intense heat caused the earth to crack. As one walked on the hardened soil, a wave of heat rushed up through the soles of their shoes, making them curse the scorching weather and sweat profusely.

A peculiar group of four individuals were strolling leisurely on the wide country road.

At the head of the group was a black-haired youth adorned in silver knight's armor, with a white cloak draped over his shoulders. To his left, a white-haired magus walked with a smile on his face, and with each step he took, two beautiful flowers bloomed.

To the youth's right was a female knight, her delicate features reminiscent of a lily in full bloom. Her eyes were a piercing shade of blue, alertly scanning the surrounding area for any potential threats. In her hand, she held a gorgeously decorated sword, its surface glinting in the sunlight.

Following behind these three individuals was a young knight carrying a large bundle on his back, silently trailing behind them. With each step he took, his footfalls were heavy, creating a sound like a heavy object hitting the ground and raising a cloud of yellow dust. This peculiar group of four caught the attention of many people.

Indeed, the magus's ability to make flowers bloom while walking was truly eye-catching. However, despite this, no one came forward to strike up a conversation with them. This group of four was none other than Shirou and his companions.

"Is this Garrod?" Shirou asked, looking towards the nearby town, and turning to Merlin who was walking beside him.

"Yup," Merlin nodded.

At this moment, Kay caught up with them from behind and couldn't resist teasing Merlin. "Hey, old white mouse, can you stop with your illusions? People are staring at us!"

Merlin retorted, "What do you mean by 'old white mouse'? It's Merlin, big brother Merlin! Besides, I can't dispel the flower field. It would ruin my image."

Kay scoffed, "Who cares about your image?"

"Enough with the complain. Besides, the king supports me," Merlin replied.

"Is that so?" Kay raised an eyebrow.

Shirou chuckled, "There's nothing more attention-grabbing than this."

"I see," Kay nodded, pretending to understand.

"Huh, I see? what does that mean? Why won't you listen to me, but you listen to the king?" Merlin complained.

"Because you're a white mouse who can only trick people, while Arthur is an honest king," Kay sneered.

"What a joke! Arthur is even better at tricking people than me!"

He was hurt. The king, who was even better at tricking people than him, was right in front of him, yet he was still being called honest. It was just too unfair!

Shirou stood at the gates of Garrod, taking in the scenery. The townspeople nearby couldn't help but cast curious glances at their unusual group, but no one came forward to welcome them.

Kay approached and asked, "My king, what are we doing here?"

"What are we doing?" Shirou rubbed his chin, then smiled. "Why, to stir up some trouble, of course!"

"Cause...trouble?" Kay was a bit perplexed, not entirely understanding his intentions.

Shirou didn't elaborate and instead turned to Artoria. "From now on, if there's anything that you find offensive, charge in and take care of it!"

"Huh?" she was taken aback, hesitating for a moment before expressing her concerns. "Are you sure that's a wise decision? It may offend some of the nobles, my king. It could harm your rule."
