I, the Weakest Traveler, Start by Taming the gods of the Old World.

Artoria signed on the paper in front of her, a sigh leaving her mouth before she handed it to Merlin.

"Well, you're done. I'm surprised you actually found the zeal to finish accepting every bill, I normally have to pressure you to do so." Merlin said with a smile as she gathered the stacks of paper bills.

She and Artoria were in Artoria's room. Merlin was standing at the side, while Artoria was seated on the chair.

The morning sun was shining through her window, lighting up the room a bit to bring out the beautiful features of the two wom occupying it.

Artoria rested her back on the backrest, her eyes narrowing towards the ceiling, "Ha Joon said he needed the bills done, if I didn't complete it, I would get an earful from him".

"True, he doesn't stop wh he starts talking." Merlin smiled a bit before settling down on the bed, "And you seem worried also, are you.. alright?".

"...."

"I've spt close to sixty years as the king of Camelot. In all those times I've watched this kingdom crumble and rise back, but for the first time in a long time, I feel like.. Camelot is actually achieving something that doesn't involve blood sheds." Artoria suddly uttered.

Merlin chuckled, "I'm glad your sse of time isn't as warped as I thought, the locket must be losing its powers again."

"Uhn? What do you mean?" Artoria looked at Merlin.

"Umm hmm, don't worry about it. Just me blabbing about how I want Ha Joon to myself. He's be working since yesterday, no? Would be nice to give him ..a …treat." Merlin smiled with mischief.

This caused Artoria to freeze a bit, "What do you mean treat? Please do not corrupt him with your perverted act."

"Corrupt? Wow! Way to break my heart Milady, I'm simply satisfying a guest of ours for the kind things he has be doing for us." Merlin looked to the side dramatically.

"And since wh do you 'Treat' people? I do not remember you being able to have a dect conversation with a guy." Artoria spoke back.

Merlin, with sudd seriousness replied, "Has he held you before?".

Artoria looked at her, a bit confused.

"He looks so innoct, but with his clothes off, it's like you're looking at an tirely differt man. You just know if you held him you'd never want to let go. His lips could easily drown you in pleasure if you let loose, his eyes are-

"Stop..stop..stopppppuuuuu!" Artoria broke character, jerking up from the chair while swinging her arms in an X shape.

"W…what are you talking about all of a sudd?!" She blushed.

"Uhn? Well you asked a question, I was only answering." Merlin looked up at her.

"I didn't ask you to give me the full details!... Eh? Seriously? You've se him naked?" Artoria asked with a deadpanish look.

"Hav't you?".

Artoria looked to the side, remembering the countless times she had walked into Ha Joon naked.

"I…guess you can say that…"

Bang! Bang!

Someone knocked on the door.

Like a switch, Artoria put on a calm face and looked towards the door, "You can come in." She answered.

The door oped.

Standing at the trance was Mordred carrying Ha Joon on her back.

Both Merlin and Artoria's eyes flared up.

"What happed to him?" Artoria tried to maintain her composure as she moved closer.

"The dumbass overworked himself and broke down. I don't know where his room is and so I figured I'd bring him to you rather than my own room." Mordred uttered, not once did she look Artoria in the eye.

"I see…" Artoria noticed the blood soaked bandages a Ha Joon's hands.

Mordred looked behind Artoria to see Merlin who was waving at her.

"Thank you, I'll take it from here."

Artoria moved closer, picking Ha Joon from Mordred's back like a princess and th heading towards the bed.

Mordred waited for a while, watching as Artoria gtly placed Ha Joon on the bed, and th covered his body with the bed sheet.

Although it didn't occur to her at first, but, watching another person do it made her wish she could do the same to him as well.

"Thank you for bringing him to me." Artoria said as she sat on the bed beside Ha Joon.

This came as a surprise to Mordred, she couldn't remember the last time Artoria praised her for anything.

She scoffed a bit with a hint of laugh, "He's changing you too uhn? I guess ev the cold king can be softed."

Mordred walked out of the room, closing the door behind her.

"Merlin, his hands and body seem bruised, mind using your healing magic on him?" Asked Artoria.

"Unfortunately, I can also see how bruised he is, just what the hell was he doing on that farm?" Merlin stood up and moved closer, moving her hands forward to heal him.

Artoria was silt, the longer she looked at Ha Joon, the more angry she felt by the second. This anger wasn't directed at anyone…this anger was directed at herself.

…

Meanwhile, Mordred arrived in front of the door to a room.

She oped the door and walked in, her eyes fixed in front of her.

"Hey there Aunty, sorry I've not be able to come check up on you. I've be stuck with this.. annoying man. I'm his legal bodyguard".

Mordred closed the door.

She walked in and sat on the chair, her hand grabbing the hand of the person lying on the bed.

"Remember wh I told you about the Prime minister dude, yeah, he's the one. And I think I was wrong about him, he isn't like every male we've countered aunty, he's dedicated ev if he jokes a a lot, but I think he does that to soft up a people. He can be very annoying, and cocky, he thinks his good looks can excuse him from doing a lot of stupid shit. It pisses me off".

She continued, each time the smile on her face grew.

"And, I don't exactly know how to say this, but, I may or may not have slept with him. But it's not what you think! The last thing I'd do is have sex wh a man. I was bitt by a Loverback snake, and so I didn't have any choice, or maybe I wanted to, I don't know, I'm confused aunty. This man is making me so annoyed and confused.

Sometimes I feel like I don't ev understand what character I'm supposed to play, he can easily sneak in and crack it from the inside".

Mordred sighed…

"You know more about m than I do aunty, so I'm sure if you meet Ha Joon, you'll understand what I'm talking about. He's really… a crazy person, and a dumbass… but I can't talk to anyone else about this but you. I'll come check on you tomorrow, please get well".
