Chapter 34: The mission is accomplished, and the final parting
"Whew--" After confirming that Archer had been eliminated, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well, butβ" Rin watched the black mud dry and the burning ruins of the construction site, "this is a ............ mess"
"Oh, ......roar, roar, roar," Luvia said with a three-stage laugh, "I can clean up a stall of this level in just a month, and no matter how long the project is, as long as I throw money into it, it can be shortened to a satisfactory level, as long as Sakura lends me the space warehouse again." β
At this time, Sakura was suddenly stunned for a moment and said, "Miss Ruvia, if you need my help, you'd better hurry up and prepare the construction equipment tomorrow." Sakura said with some urgency. β
"Hmm, what's wrong?" Luvia asked.
"The news has come that the restraining force has been restored, and the leylines are already well restored. Next midnight, I'll leave this world. Sakura informs here. β
"In other words............" Illya said with a sad expression.
".................." the crowd was silent.
"Ahhh But her expression was also a little forced.
"I'm sorry............" Sakura whispered.
At this time, Bregette also came with a straight back.
"Bachet, you're not going to start snatching rank cards now, are you?" asked Luvia vigilantly, after all, the cards had really been collected this time, and the card competition would naturally start again.
"No," Bagette said, "it's not wise to snatch it now, my Backlightsaber Slash War Excalibur can only make ten in a year, but I've used up three of them in this time, and besides, my resurrection spell has just been used up, so I can't use it for the time being, and the Heroic Spirit who has the ability to have two cards at the same time really doesn't have a good chance of winning." β
Bagette began to turn away, and finally glanced back, and said, "If she takes the rank card with her when she leaves, my mission will naturally not exist, but if she doesn't, please be careful with the two alternate chairmen." He walked over to Karen's position and said something to her, and the two of them left together, but no one cared about that for the time being. (In fact, it's just a ride)
Rin's gaze was still looking at the direction in which Bajiet and Karen had disappeared, "Next, what are we going to do with this madwoman?"
"As long as she didn't do it just now, it wouldn't be a problem," Luvia clapped her hands, "Augustus!"
"Yes!" the lean old butler suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"You know. Luvia said.
"Yes, guaranteed to be resolved within 12 hours. Augustus replied in his professional tone.
"I seem to smell a strong sense of crime............," Illya said, with glazed eyes.
"That's naΓ―ve, 'sister,'" Chloe said, patting Illya on the shoulder, "we're all terrible criminals, aren't we?"
"Eh, Chloe, you...... What nonsense are you talking about?!" Illya was inexplicable.
"Don't you have a 'credit' for this?" Chloe smirked, pointing to a messy seashore.
"Ah...... It dawned on me a little. Illya burst into tears.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
During the day, under the help of Luvia and Sakura, the entire waterfront was fenced off by the construction site, and Sakura didn't care if the church had any reason to explain to the public.
I don't know what means Luvia used, but in short, Bregette received a notice to return to the headquarters of the Magic Society that day, and left Fuyuki City by flight at noon. By the way, Bajiet is really poor now, working some temporary jobs but always getting deducted from her salary and fired for mistakes, she is really a muscular woman who knows almost nothing but fighting, and can only barely ensure to eat at present, and even sleeps on a bench on the side of the street at night. Even the money for the plane ticket was given by Luvia, and the association did not reimburse these expenses.
In the evening, because Sakura and Chloe are about to leave this world, the girls decide to have a farewell party. It was said that it was a farewell party, but in fact, it was just a banquet at Luvia's house. Alice Phil was also invited.
In fact, before the eighth card was recovered, everyone also had a banquet here, but unlike the last time, which was more jubilant, this time although there was not much difference on the surface, it still seemed to be a little dull.
Luvia sat in her seat the whole time, drinking black tea elegantly. Eating and talking to other people from time to time.
Rin wears a maid costume and does the work that a maid should do at various banquets, and the Tosaka family has been a bit of a decline recently (all of which are the fault of the ministers), and although the various largesses in recovering the eighth card are also a large expense for Luvia, it is not painful, but Rin is almost bankrupt (in terms of magic gems), so he has to work as a maid in Luvia's house to earn money, but his monthly salary is not as much as the pocket money that Luvia gave Sakura and Chloe.
Illya, Miyu, and Chloe sat together all the time, all of them looking reluctant, and Alice Fell sat next to them, talking to a few people from time to time, answering some questions for Illya and Chloe, after all, there are still many incomprehensible aspects of their existence.
Sakura eats alone. For Rin and Ruvia, she only works with them, and for Illya and Miyu, she teaches them a lot of skills related to magical girls, which is a teacher-student relationship, and Chloe lets her get along with her best friend and mother in this last time.
Suddenly, Chloe ran over and took Sakura's hand: "Sister Sakura, how boring it is to eat alone like this, let's come together." β
Sakura came back to her senses and looked up, Illya and Miyu beckoned to her, and Alice Phil looked at her.
"Whew-" Sakura exhaled, "Really, sure enough, friends and family ...... feel" and got up and walked over to them............
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The banquet lasted until near midnight. The few people who were chatting were suddenly stunned, and looked at Sakura and Chloe a little blankly.
"Huh?" Sakura and Chloe looked at each other and then at themselves, and exhaled as their bodies were filled with a little light, gradually becoming translucent.
"It seems that I am not destined to exist in this world. Chloe smiled wryly.
"Hmm, woo woo............" Illya, who had been a little reluctant, finally couldn't control it and shed real tears.
Miyu put her arms around Illya, as if trying to comfort her, but her eyes were also sparkling.
"Chloe, no matter where you go in the future, you must live happily. Alice Fell said.
"I see, Mom. Illya, Miyu, and everyone, goodbye!" Chloe smiled and waved her hand, opened the door and ran out.
"Goodbye. Sakura bowed to everyone, closed the door and followed.
Illya seemed to want to chase, but was held down by Alice Field: "This is what Chloe and Sakura's little sister want." β
"Why, run?" Sakura asked, catching up with Chloe.
"If I don't, I can't help it. Chloe finally burst into tears.
"I'm sorry. β
"No, it's all my fault, remember the day I first fought you? Illya's fear broke through the seal in her body and released me. At that time, I made a wish, hoping to get a body, and I didn't expect the Holy Grail to respond to my wish in this way............"
Finally, the two of them turned into a little orange mist and disappeared.
After a while, the door opened again, and it was Rin and Luvia who came out.
"It's gone. Rin said.
"yes, let's go. "But why do you keep holding my hand?"
"Hehe, you're the one, let it go, I'm not that interested!" Rin's tone began to hurry.
Once again, the two began to wrestle as usual.
"Really, that's why I can't stand them. Or my Illya is the cutest. Ruby Road.
Sapphire seconded the first half.
"Huh...... They still haven't changed. Illya smiled wryly.
Miyu looked at the pile of cards at their feet and nodded.
