Chapter 8: Twilight is about to rise

The atmosphere is ...... now Anyway, I guess it's pretty weird. Zhao Mian looked at the three people sitting in the room, the most innocent of them should be the Emiya Shirou, because not only did he not know what was happening now, but he also didn't know what happened in the past, so between the strange eyes of the two girls, he looked very uncomfortable. The second should be the Rin Tosaka. Zhao Mian sighed a little wordlessly, the moment the young man shouted this name, he subconsciously glanced at Sakura behind him, and the panic and surprise on Sakura's face at that moment naturally did not hide from his eyes. This girl named Rin Tosaka must be Sakura's sister when she was called Sakura Tosaka in the past.

"It's like a farce. This is what the blonde girl said outside the door after the three people with the spell entered the room to talk, although it was not very suitable, but Zhao Mian unexpectedly agreed with this statement. Such a night should have been an extremely thrilling and unforgettable night for the boy inside, but under the trajectory of a strange fate, such a night was only one step away from the confession meeting - if Sakura could forgive Rin Tosaka. Because Zhao Mian clearly saw remorse and hesitation in the eyes of the black-haired girl looking at Sakura from time to time, I think that for this Rin Tosaka, Sakura should be her indispensable relative, right?

But these are the things that the three people inside should consider, as that inexplicable servant, Zhao Mian was left outside the room with the blonde girl and a white-haired young man. The blonde maiden, believing that the boy was in no danger, sat alone in the aisle, but the armor was not removed, and she sat there in a very formal posture - a gesture that was perfect for leaping from the ground and drawing her sword. Of course, although the girl did not relax her guard, or since Zhao Mian appeared in front of her, she has not let down her guard posture, she is like a lion frightened by the sound of gunshots, and she has been vigilant against Zhao Mian as if she bared her teeth at the guy with the gun. But even if it's a girl, although it's not a good thing, at least a beautiful girl is much better than a man looking at you.

"I said, do you have something you want to ask me?" Zhao Mian looked at the white-haired young man standing on the roof opposite with a black line, and asked loudly, "If you have something to ask, can you please say it directly? Why are you staring at me like this...... To be honest, it made me uncomfortable. ”

"So, I ask you. Very simply, the white-haired young man on the roof jumped in front of Zhao Mian, but he kept a distance that could basically dodge any attack, he frowned, staring at Zhao Mian as if he was looking at an impossible thing, "Are you really the servant of that girl?"

"Of course. Zhao Mian nodded, "If what Sakura said to me is true, then I should be the one you call a servant." Well, although I still haven't figured out what this Holy Grail War is all about, since the contract is made, then abiding by it is what a paladin should do. ”

"Wait. The white-haired servant interrupted Zhao Mian's words, he rubbed his temples, and said, "You mean, you don't know what the situation is now?"

"Well, that's right. Zhao Mian nodded, "Although Sakura explained a lot to me, to be honest, I don't know what the meaning of this thing is. Holy Grail War...... Why is it the Holy Grail?"

"SABER OVER THERE, HAVE YOU EVER ENCOUNTERED SUCH A SITUATION?" THE WHITE-HAIRED YOUNG MAN TWITCHED THE CORNERS OF HIS MOUTH AND LOOKED UP AT THE BLONDE GIRL WHO WAS KNEELING UPRIGHT ON THE SIDE.

"-No, although this is not the first time I have been summoned, I have never heard of such a situation, and every Heroic Spirit should know this knowledge when it is called?" The girl was silent for a moment, as if thinking about something, but she still spoke, "Just as the Heroic Spirit of any era can adapt well to modern life in modern times, it is impossible for a participant in the Holy Grail War not to understand the current state of affairs. ”

"No, the problem is that I'm not the Heroic Spirit you call me at all. Zhao Mian said, he put the big sword in his hand back into his space bag, took off the helmet on his head with his hand, hugged it in his arms, and let his face appear in front of the two, "I just obeyed Sakura's call, and then made a contract with her, and after fulfilling the contract, I will leave." And you Heroic Spirits here are probably the souls of dead heroes, right? I have never really died, either in the past or now, so this situation of Heroic Spirits may not be representative of my situation. ”

"That is, a living hero. The blonde girl nodded, indicating that she understood the current situation, "A person who has been recited by the world in his own time and achieved the name of a hero, and then summoned by the Holy Grail while he is still alive. It sounds incredible, but the Holy Grail is a panacea that can do such a thing. ”

"Well, there are some differences, but that's the only way to explain it now. After the white-haired man finished speaking, he hid his figure, but Zhao Mian could feel that this guy had turned into a spirit from the body just now, and now he was still wandering around, or on alert.

The scene was deserted again, but without that strange gaze, Zhao Mian finally felt much better—although the girl on the side still maintained a high level of vigilance against him.

Inside the room, two girls who were extremely clear about the current situation were using their own words to inform the young man of the current situation, and from time to time he could still hear the surprised cries of the young man inside, it seemed that it was as expected by Zhao Mian, this young man who was not prepared from any point of view was not ready to participate, but the current situation was already ready to be sent, and I am afraid that it would not be as he intended - no matter what he was thinking about now.

The door of the "Click" room was opened from the inside, and the three masters with the spell walked out of it, and Zhao Mian could clearly see the face of the current nominal master, that is, Sakura, - she seemed to be very unwilling to follow the last, and Rin Tosaka, who was still talking about something related to the Holy Grail War, was talking to the red-haired boy while carefully watching Sakura behind him, in a way that Sakura would not easily find.

"Makiri-san, you shouldn't have reported to the church yet, right?" said Rin Tosaka, who was silent for a while after talking to Emiya for a long time, "Then you should come along." ”

"Naturally, I'll follow my senior, Tosaka-san. Sakura smiled and said, "Also, please don't call me Makiri-san, I've left the Maki family now, and I no longer have the qualifications to hold the status of the Makiri-san." ”
