However, this pain was far from temporary.
Tom wasn't a kind cat, not at all. As a cat, Tom had an intense desire for revenge! Just now, he had been pierced by Chen Gong like a sieve. Now, no matter what, he had to use his whip to strike Chen Gong 800 times, 800 times. Otherwise, Tom wouldn't be able to swallow this anger.
Just as Chen Gong landed and continued to flee, Tom whipped him on the buttocks again. It was swift and decisive, an attack speed that even a Servant couldn't evade. No matter how fast his speed was, even if it was at the speed of light, at this moment, Tom could probably forcefully catch up by +1.
So, let alone Chen Gong, even if it were Achilles being chased and whipped at this moment, he would obediently use his buttocks to endure Tom's whip. There was no possibility of dodging it.
Every time Tom swung his whip, Chen Gong had to jump a meter with tears streaming down his face, clutching his buttocks, and then land to continue fleeing and endure the whip.
"Crack!"
"Ahh!"
"Crack!"
"Mmm!"
"Crack!"
"Grr!"
...
In this way, Tom and Chen Gong chased each other around Bai Song's place, as if trapped in an endless loop.
"Grrr." On the other side, Merlin couldn't help but gulp when he saw what was happening in front of him. He hadn't even started fighting Spike yet, and he saw Chen Gong being taken down in the blink of an eye, currently enduring severe beatings.
Even though he disliked Chen Gong, this kind of "loyal dog to the master" type of treacherous Servant, Merlin had to admit that his set of combos just now was quite impressive.
But even with such an outstanding set of combos, it became a move that offered a free kill in front of Tom. Chen Gong, who had dealt with a "Schrödinger's Cat" that seemed much weaker than the dog in front of him, was already being beaten to tears. And now, he had to face this dog that could shatter the shield of the Round Table. No matter how he thought about it, it seemed like he was doomed.
But what if? Let's gamble and turn a motorcycle into a bicycle.
"Come... come on!" Merlin took a deep breath, waved his right hand, and accompanied by countless petals floating in the air, a shining Calibur appeared in his hand!
Spike, who had been still in place, moved in an instant after seeing Merlin's action. "Grrrr... Woof!"
His speed was incredibly fast, just like when he pounced on Mashu before.
However, this time, the strange sensation of running for a long time despite the fast speed and close distance that occurred when he pounced on Mashu did not happen.
This time, in just an instant, Spike pounced, targeting Merlin's neck!
Merlin's eyes lit up. He seized the opportunity, right now!

"come!" Merlin shouted lowly. He tightly gripped the Calibur, narrowed his eyes, and at the moment Spike pounced, about to bite his neck, he swung down the Calibur in his hand.
Success or failure, it all hinged on this one strike.
However... if nothing unexpected happened, an unexpected event was about to
"Phew~"
Merlin swung his curry baton towards Spike, but with a "swish" sound, the baton slipped out of his hand as if it were greased and flew away.
In that instant, Merlin's heart sank, and his mind went blank. He thought, "Oh no, I really messed up."
With his eyes closed, Merlin prepared himself to have his neck bitten by Spike, as he had expected.
However, the anticipated bite from Spike never came. When he opened his eyes, he saw Spike frozen in mid-air, in the exact moment before sinking his teeth into Merlin's neck. It was as if time had stopped, but it was different from time freezing.
Before Merlin could comprehend why Spike suddenly stopped attacking, Spike turned his head and, with a starry-eyed expression, went after the Calibur. Spike was ecstatic, like a child.
"Bark, bark, bark!" Spike barked and ran forward while wagging his tail, fixated on the direction the Calibur had flown. In Spike's eyes, the baton had turned into a simple stick.
Soon, Spike disappeared into the distance, leaving Merlin bewildered in his original spot, and Fou disappointed by his side.
Although he didn't know why, it seemed that the dog was very interested in his Calibur. Merlin felt relieved because he may have lost Calibur, but he saved his own life. That was a win in his book!
Seeing that Spike had run far away without causing him any trouble, Merlin made a decisive choice to leave while he still could.
Before he could make his escape, an unnamed chill locked onto him, causing him to shiver. He had a premonition that if he left this residential area, he would be killed by someone. Using his clairvoyance, he confirmed his intuition.
So Merlin immediately abandoned his plan to flee and instead decided to head towards Gudako's location.
Although Gudako considered him as a backup reserve ammunition and expendable, as long as he stayed by Gudako's side when he wasn't needed as a consumable, he would be safe.
Just like now, as long as Chen Gong messed up, then he would be completely safe.
For Gudako, when she didn't have any means to deceive others, deception became a core strategic resource!
Realizing this, Merlin decisively moved to be by Gudako's side.
Merlin's decision was undoubtedly the right one because... on the other side of the river, there was a Servant restraining another Servant who was eyeing him menacingly.
"Calm down, stay calm!" Soji was frantically using the thrusters on his back, trying to keep Saber in place. However, Saber's strength was simply too great, and he was struggling to hold her down.
Yes, that's right. Although Soji, who didn't want to come to the frontlines and even used Command Seals to force her, eventually succumbed after Kirei tempted her with the words, "If you go to the battlefield to watch with Saber and act opportunistically, I'll give you a day off tomorrow to go to the seaside amusement park." Soji... gave in.
Now she is accompanying Saber, watching the battle erupting in the residential area across the river.
"Let me go! I want to kill him, grrrr..."
Artoria, with her eyes red and full of anger, yelled, but before she could finish, Soji covered her mouth to prevent her from yelling too loudly and alerting the opponents across the river.
Soji continued to restrain Saber and tried to calm her down with a head full of big-sisterly reassurance. "It won't come to that, really, it won't come to that!"
"What won't come to that? That dog ruined my mea... Round Table!" Saber angrily shouted, tearing Soji's hand away from her mouth.
"And that damn Merlin even treated Excalibur as a dog toy!"
"We can't let these two offenses go unpunished. Assassin, release me quickly!"
