My Upgrades Are Invincible

Chapter 160

Me and Morgan went the rest of the A-team to make sure their summoning's didnt go horribly, for example one of them summoning something like a rabid Dracula as Hinako being a blood elemental would have the perfect compatibility for such a summoning. Or perhaps Pepe summoning some monstrous Tengu figure I wouldn't know much of anything about.

"Alright Kadoc, after you do your summoning take a step back incase whatever you summon is innately hostile." I ordered the most 'normal' of the A-Team as although he had a bit of a talent with Reinforcement I didnt like his chances should a fresh Berserker come swinging out the gate.

Kadoc nodded thankfully to my unspoken vow to protect him, but Hinako and Pepe rolled there eyes as Pepe whined pouting with a hand over his heart. " Aww Jake I thought we were going to be best friends? I am hurt deep in my heart."

I couldn't help but snort as I gave Pepe a bland look. "If a Servant attempts to jump you, they will be in for a surprise... and Hinako can't die that easily." I ended shrugging as said blood elemental bristled at me mentioning her before her face smoothed over becoming ice cold as she focused on her coming summoning.

"Kadoc, go ahead first I have a strong feeling your Servant will be the least troublesome." I said waving my arm forward to the engraved stone slab where the summoning would take place.

"I hope that is the case." Kadoc muttered with a wry smile as he nervously stepped onto the summoning platform and with a flare of his mana the summoning circle came to life sending blue lightning across the platform until a bright light formed in the center of the summoning circle.

Finally, the summoning light disappeared as a rather short woman walked out of the light.

She had light blue eyes that matched her silver blond hair and was wearing a voluminous dress decorated with what seemed to be long feather shaped strips of cloth overlaid over each other.

"Servant Anastasia. I have come in response to your summoning." Anastasia said before pushing out the doll she was holding in her arms towards us. "This is Viy. He is with me. Umm please take care of us." She said in a monotone, and I couldn't help but shiver as that damned creepy doll waved back.

The doll was wearing a yellow dress and had matching long blond human hair that shined in the industrial light, but the creepy part of the doll was its dark brown head that didnt have any form of a face. It was like Anastatia just parted the long hair surrounding the perfectly round head Viy had to show a side and just call it a face.

"You are a Caster, right?" Kadoc asked respectfully as he met Anastatia's eyes and she nodded in affirmation.

"She doesn't look about to pull your spine out and use it for a jump rope. So, move out of the way Kadoc." Hinako called out obviously ready to go next as she was already next to the summoning platform not even waiting for Anastasia to get off.

"Lady Anastasia, please follow me so I can show you to my room so you can take the adjacent room for your own and where the workshops are." Kadoc said offering the Russian princess one of his hands to escort her down the stairs from the summoning platform, but the rest of the room saw Kadoc making some form of hand signals behind his back to the other members of the A-Team.

After Kadoc escorted his princess out of the room, I turned to Pepe and asked what the hand signals were for. "Oh, that was a protocol we had during Servant summoning's so we could dog pile the Servant in question if the Master could tell us the Servant was attempting to mind control them through their Charisma or other innate skill that wasn't as obvious." Pepe explained as Hinako did her own summoning.

"The traps are real..." I facepalmed as Hinako's summoning went through and an androgynous man walked out of the summoning plate.

"Servant Saber, Lanling Wang pledges his blade to your cause my master." He said bowing lightly to Hinako who for a brief moment frowned but her appearance smoothed over as she nodded to Lanling.

"I will entrust myself to you then." She said regally and then turned around with her twin tails swinging behind her. "Saber, come we must speak of the coming times." She spoke as her Servant followed her after giving me and Pepe a respectful nod as in deference to being his master's comrade or colleague.

"Well Pepe... Now it's your turn to burn down Chaldea." I said feeling a bit of mental exhaustion at being in a state of high awareness without anything happening.

Pepe threw me a carefree smile in response as he walked over.

"Do you really think his summoning will go wrong?" Morgan asked as she leaned on her large staff fully ready for combat as she noticed I was more tense than usual with the past summoning's.

"The thing is... Scandinavia Peperoncino, has a very punchy face and personality." I said dryly as my words proved to be prophetic as fiery red-haired man stepped out of the summoning light and towered over Pepe.

"Hehhh. You are my master? Man, you look spineless... Meh whatever when you die, I can just get a new master." The Servant said before with a grin he spun to us. "But hey my name is Ashwatthama Archer class Servant, and I challenge you two!"

I looked over to Morgan and couldn't help but think about how Ashwatthama definitely should have been the Berserker in the situation and not an Archer class Servant with his battle lust and general rage meter.

Like he seriously gets to some Hulk level temper tantrums.

"Ashwatthama, stand down! They are our allies in saving Humanity, wet your bloodlust in the enemies that will be readily available tomorrow." Pepe ordered with all his previous levity gone and not only was he speaking harshly but the command seals on his wrist was glowing a menacing red in warning to the rabid Archer.

Ashwatthama sighed and I could see his bright red hair almost dull as the fire within him went out. "Fine... I call dibs on kicking the head off the first enemy we see." He argued Pepe and the man very wisely nodded saying how we were going to face many enemies in the future that he could desire.

Which if some hot head wanted to deal with all the trash mobs, I won't discourage them as I still gain Excellia and stat points from my 'party members' kills.

-

The rest of the day was a rush of motion for the rest of the people besides me and Fujimaru as the A-team hurriedly went about dealing with their Servant's and I was staying in my room with Morgan and Atoria as they went over ways to improve my methods of survival.

"I have literally killed dragons, and giants for god's sake... Unless a very accomplished assassin gets the jump on me, I can deal with most Servants with my own skills. Artoria don't forget I was able to defeat you, one of the best sword fighters in human history." I said to assuage their fears that their squishy human Master was going to get their head taken off should they look away for a second.

"Plus, even in the midst of a battle, Morgan won't be running around trying to beat things to death with her staff, will you?" I asked with a wry smile as the Fairy Queen snorted in response.

"I am a true mage... I have no interest in putting a powerful magical sword in my staff so I can occasionally use it. No such a sword would be best used in the hands of one of my knights." Morgan mused and I agreed with her point of view, but Artoria looked a bit contrite as Merlin used to bully her in training by using the sword, he kept in his staff in surprise attacks during their sparing.

"Regardless, we still want you to be careful as you are the most competent Master, Chaldea has." Artoria said pointedly.

"Alright alright. I will be careful, but I warn you both, I am not an armchair general, I am used to fighting in group battles with my companions not sitting back and yelling out orders to people." I said honestly as looking back I had fought very few battles strictly on my own.

Hell, I think the only such battles that come to mind are the couple of demons I killed and the first time I fought Muzan were the only times I didnt have other people around me.

Plus, I specialize in close to medium distance combat with my sword's abilities keeping me in those ranges and I can literally space skip to enemies that try to maintain a distance from me.

"Ok I plan on working on those runes Cu gave me, it will help clear my mind so I can sleep easier tonight." I said evasively seeing their faces scrunch up at me basically dismissing them.

But before I could actually attempt to get the Berserker and Saber to leave my door opened and Nero stomped into my room. "Master, you have been ignoring me! Therefor I shall be spending the night here and gracing you with my presence!" She said proudly as she dropped into my bed clad in a red set of lingerie and laid up against me shamelessly.

Morgan and Nero seemed to share a look and I realized I may be biting off more than I could chew with these Servants...
