Fragments of the Lost [Fate/Grand Order] [Abandoned]

Chapter 28

"What's this?" Archer looked at the envelope in his hand that was given to him.

"An invitation from my lady/ladies!" Merlin said with a smile. "A huge surprise awaits~" Merlin said with a grin.

"Hold on incubus! What's your plan now?"

"Why I didn't do nothing." Merlin said dejectedly. "What kind of cruel person do you think I am?"

"One that plays around and causes chaos."

"Fair enough..." Merlin grinned. "Anywho, just accept. I think you'll love the treat!"

"Something tells me I'm scared to even know about what you did. Knowing you, you're part of whatever is gonna happen later."

",.." The Magus only laughed, disappearing as he turned into flowers. Leaving Archer alone with the invitation in his hand. "The casino... There's a casino in Chaldea."

"You ain't know?" Cú asked Archer.

"Huh? Where'd you come from?"

"Just passing by. Anyway, you didn't know that we had a casino?"

"To be fair... I usually spend my time in the kitchen or my room. I don't spend my time listening to gossip and other things. I just work, in the kitchen, cooking and cleaning. Even outside the kitchen, I clean."

"Heh! Talk about a literal Servant. But yeah, after Las Vegas, the casino got moved here. Somehow..." Cú hummed.

"How?" Archer asked in disbelief.

"Hey. I got no clue. Have you ever wondered how we got an entire area for bartending? A place with games? Arcades? It's almost like Chaldea has infinite space or pseudo Reality Marbles! Honestly, it's probably magecraft being used for all these things."

"That's... Actually. Fair point."

"Well, I'll be heading to the bar myself. See ya." Cú waves goodbye to Archer. Walking away.

"Later." Archer only said with a mutual goodbye of his own. Watching as the three Star Servant left. Looking at the invitation once again.

Most likely Altria who invited him. What would she want with him now?

Well, it's not like he can deny her, he was offered an invitation to her casino. Who is he to deny such an invite? Besides...

Archer blushed at the thought of Altria. Thinking back to her Ruler origin.

He kinda wants to see her in that bunny outfit again...

Nope, nope, nope! He didn't think anything!

And yet the cloud that remains above his head begs to differ, given as the fake Altria playfully pats Archer's head while laughing cutely, holding a stack of cards up to her face.

Ugh...

"Taadaa!" Irisviel said happily. "Looks good doesn't it?"

"You fools! What are you doing trying to steal my identity?!" Archer yelled at the Servants in front of him.

"Eh... Why do you wear this loser getup anyway?" Chloe asked as she fixed the eye band around her eyes. Looking over the mirror as she stared at herself. "Hmm... Not bad. Magical Mysterious Girl Chloe-Chan!" Chloe struck a pose.

"Truly something I wouldn't expect from Onii-Chan..." Illya said.

"Agreed. But it's good we got to know more about future Onii-Chan, right?" Miyu asked while fixing her eye band.
