Chapter Twenty-Three: The Final Battle: Fate Rises

"Is there a tactic?"

Stepping into the last moments of B.C., so asked. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Nope"

The voice of the reply was as calm as ever.

Although no answer was given, it did not waver.

"It seems that there is only a hard fight"

Nodding, such an answer is also a matter of course, not unexpected. The knight showed his body in the breeze, and the silver armor and blue robe gradually revealed in the air, quite dreamy and realistic.

He held a riding spear in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, and was fully armed.

"Aren't you hiding?"

Pulling out his weapon and arming it all out, Kiritsugu frowned.

Shaking his head, his long hair flying.

"It's pointless, now, it's time to fight with all your might, there's no point in hiding it, and that night, a hole card has already been revealed"

That's what it says, Stormlord's Spear.

There's no reason why you can keep it secret after a blow like that.

Emiya Kiritsugu nodded, glancing around slightly.

――It's hard to imagine that there would be such an environment in the city, and the dense woodland would be as dense as the wilderness, so the hiding effect would be quite good, right?

The soil is a little damp and not suitable for white combat, but there is no position to complain about everyone's words.

"I left first"

Nodding, without saying hello to the other masters, Emiya Kiritsugu turned around and left the battlefield. Walked into the forest on the side.

"Understood"

Rod nodded, then ignored the man.

It is also natural to want to stand in a safer place, and the identity played by Emiya Kiritsugu can probably be called the missing job this time - the assassin.

Let him stand up openly, and the war itself will already be half lost.

The so-called assassins, although it does not mean that they can just blindly assassinate and sneak attack, but it is clear that they are indeed the kind of people who need the advantage of raids to be able to show their talents.

So, of course, even if he didn't despise that kind of conspiracy plan, Rhodes understood that it was not a mistake.

In other words, it may be a mistake to reject that kind of plan.

But, probably, it won't change for the rest of your life, right?

After all, it's been true that it's been a lifetime and hasn't changed, isn't it already dead once?

Continuing to walk forward, in late autumn, stepping on fallen leaves mixed with mud and water, making indescribable sounds, walking in the cold park. The waterlogged stone pavement was illuminated by street lamps, and it was eerie.

Continue walking, and at the end of the road, in a square, you will meet the target this time.

The two kings who had been waiting there for a long time.

"I see... Am I late?"

Awe-inspiring, he put his sword on the ground and asked with a sword in his right hand.

"No, no, you're just in time"

The King of Conquest glanced at his watch, then shook his head.

"Punctual enough, Knight, I thought you'd come later!"

At eight forty-seven o'clock, more than ten minutes before the agreed nine o'clock, even a fastidious like Gilgamesh only pouted.

"Hmph, can't you wait to die?"

He stood tall on the streetlamp, just like he had when he first appeared.

The golden color that everyone looks up to.

I looked around, but I found it.

Rider's side is still followed by Webb.

Rod was dumbfounded.

"What's going on?rider?" he was a little confused, "won't you let him go to a safe place?

"Haha! I don't have to worry about this, besides, if I let him stand out of my sight, I might have to worry about it!"

The rider who smiled heartily was obviously worth it.

"I see, it's not unnecessary."

Yes, Rhodes also understood, and now, instead of worrying about the destructive power of the Heroic Spirit, it is better to be more careful about the magician's battle.

In terms of that young man's condition, whether it is Emiya Kiritsugu or Tosaka Tokitoki, there is no doubt that it will be a nidal situation.

There is no point in discussing either way of mortality.

"yes? Jin Guang said the same thing..."

"Hmph, instead of discussing those useless things, it's better to start quickly, and let this king wait at the beginning, you miscellaneous things should be almost enough, right?"

was interrupted.

The golden king's eyes are impatient, right?

Ruby-like eyes reveal evil intentions.

Drawing his sword, he smashed the earth and rocks into the puddle, causing small waves.

The chariot of the conquering king also began to roar.

"yes, no matter what, it's the way it is now, so it's better to be happy."

Iskandar showed a rare serious expression, a majestic posture, worthy of the hegemon, worthy of the overlord of one side, and can be called the king.

"Exactly!"

Rodritte also shouted in agreement, stepping forward.

Three people, standing together in a triangle.

“・・・”

Holding his breath, Weber didn't dare to make a sound, even though he had already come to his senses, but in this solemn atmosphere, he still couldn't help but tremble.

And at this time...

Outside the battle circle, there are unexpected situations happening.

"Cut..."

Clenched his teeth, the clothes on his body had been dirty a lot, and his knees and arms were in pain from falling a few times, but Shinji Maki still gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound. With willpower far beyond the needs of a child of this age, he gritted his teeth and persevered.

"Where did you go?"

The relationship with Sakura has been reconciled in a short period of time.,The weak sister quickly aroused Shinji's spirit.,The pride that hasn't faded makes Shinji hate Sakura at all.,But in an inexplicable psychological turn.,But hate Tosaka Tokitomi.。

'It's all this guy...

Gritted his teeth with hatred.

If it weren't for this guy, he wouldn't be as embarrassed as he is now.

If it weren't for this guy, his sister wouldn't be so miserable.

The affairs of the Maki family, when did you allow the Tosaka family to intervene?

Shi Chen's care for the past two days only made Shen Er feel humiliated.

The Kirito family, Sakura, I'll just protect it!

・・・Just like that guy!

"Hmm..."

However, I still lost it.

wiped the sweat on his head and looked around, but he couldn't find Shi Chen's figure.

"Where the hell did you go?"

This is... Fuyuki City Park?

A little surprised, it turned out that unconsciously, I actually ran to such a far place?

No wonder there are so many fares...

Thinking back to the money spent on taxis, I suddenly felt a little heartache.

But now is not the time to think about that.

'Yes, here, right?'

Walking into the park, the woodland at night was like a ghost, which made Shinji tremble.

However, there is no turning back.

・・・

And so on...

Wait a minute...

Why did you come here? I was at a loss.

Almost intuitively, he ran recklessly, without a plan, without reason.

I just felt that I should come, so I actually ran over with that momentum, and I didn't react to this kind of helplessness until now.

Stopped, the corners of his mouth twitched a little.

Hey, isn't that stupid?

The name of the Kiriri will cry...

"Huh, are you alone?"

Just when Shinji was depressed and wanted to go home, he was stopped.

Turn your head away.

It's a kid about the same age as himself.

He has flaming red hair, and he is clearly Japanese, but he has such a different color of hair.

A happy smile.

This guy... I haven't really experienced anything...

There is a trace of jealousy when he doesn't pretend to be, but the next moment he immediately breaks it off.

'It's too ugly'

Shook his head.

"Ahh

I looked at him in surprise, not going to answer more.

It's a stranger, and the reason for answering is just trying to figure out the reason why he's talking to him.

"Ahh

But the other party didn't recognize life at all, and grinned.

"I'm alone, too!"

Alone?

A little curious.

"Well, what about your parents, are you just leaving a child like you alone?

Mockery, naturally laughed, this should be, born incompatible, right? I didn't intend to say it so bitterly.

"Hey, don't say that!"

The angry red-haired teenager widened his eyes and patted his leg with his hand.

"It's just that I'm walking around, and how convenient it is to regress to become like this!"

The sky was a little dark, and Shinji looked over carefully before noticing that one of the young man's thighs was still covered with a thick bandage.

And under the crook of his arm, there is a crutch.

I see... No wonder I felt that his appearance was a little incongruous and a little skewed from the beginning...

"yes, yes, that's really sorry."

But I don't have the idea of continuing to rub against this guy. Shinji turned around and wanted to keep walking.

"Hey, hey, help!"

As a result, he was stopped again.

Although he didn't pull it with his hands, Shinji happened to have a desire to 'progress to the way that person is' in the past two days.

If you are still indifferent when you hear a request for help, it seems a little unreasonable.

There is no doubt that this is a child's anger, but sometimes, it is the child's anger that may be the purest and purest...

"What?"

Turning his head impatiently, his blue eyes overflowing with unhappiness.

But it was dark, and the red-haired boy on the opposite side didn't notice.

'Smack!', the young man pleaded sincerely.

"Help~ I've got no strength until now~"

It's really...

What kind of parents would bring their children to such a place on a night like this?

Look, this park doesn't look like it's for kids, is it?

"Cut...

The young and old Shinji could only sneer, and then leaned over.

"Hehe, you're such a nice person!"

"Humph!"

The coaxing child's face was dyed with a slight pride and red because of the simple and kind thanks.

Really, someone who couldn't be more understanding.

"Which way to go?"

"Hmm... What's going on inside?"

"You're really good at choosing a direction."

He looked up hesitantly.

Forget it...

Didn't you plan to go in the first place?

Take a step.

Without knowing it, Shinji Maki and the boy he was holding walked towards a turning point in his life together.

"By the way, what's your name?"

"Shirou, just call me Shirou, what about you?"

"Tsk... call me Shinji!"

In the night, the two children got acquainted.
