One hundred and forty-one - Joan of Arc's commission
"Hey, what's going on with those three beauties over there?"
"I don't know! Whose parents are coming? In other words, looking at them so young, shouldn't they be married!!"
"Are you a fool?!! In addition to them, do we have blonde hair, blue eyes, or silver hair and red eyes here? A discerning person can tell at a glance that they are either distant relatives of someone here, or someone's sister next door here, in short, it can't be a mother! They must be there on behalf of parents who can't come!"
"I see, it's easy to do, a manly husband has nothing to be afraid of, there is a beautiful sister in the family and you don't report it, at most it's a felony, is it just you? Stand out! I promise not to kill you. ”
"Just kidding! If I had such three beautiful sisters in my family, would I still study hard and go back to fight for their rewards with a good grade? I think you're suspicious! Seeing that you usually look uninterested in girls, you must be used to seeing beautiful sisters at home, so you ignore the girls in the class, right?"
"Hey, hey! Don't argue yet! Look over there! That silver-haired beautiful sister is going shallow! Could it be that she is Asagami's sister or relative?"
"It looks like it! You see, both of them have a temperament like the eldest lady, except for the hair color, they look like two sisters!"
"Fujino, do you still understand what the teacher said?"
Taking advantage of the arrival of Xiao Xiu, completely ignoring the blazing gaze from the boys in the class and the male relatives in the parents, Emiya Shirou slowly walked to Asagami Fujino, who was a little nervous on his little face, and patted her little head with a smile, with a doting expression on his face.
His silver hair shone with a dazzling white light in the sun, and his every move was so gentle and elegant. Even if it was just an unintentional move, when Emiya Shirou habitually brushed the hair on his forehead, at that moment, in an instant, his figure seemed to overlap with the princess in the fairy tale.
Between gestures, even if it is a move, it is extremely natural to reveal a sense of nobility.
At this moment, standing next to Asakami Fujino, Emiya Shirou is like a gentle big sister who coaxes her sister. Two delicate faces, like dolls, are placed together, even less than a few tens of centimeters apart. Such a scene can't help but make people feel as if they are in a dream, making people question whether what they see in their eyes is real, and the students next to them and the parents standing in the back are stunned.
"Well, it's basically no problem." Feeling the blazing gaze from his classmates, Asakami Fujino, who was already a little scared, was even more shy at the moment, his little face was red, and his voice was so light that he could barely hear it.
In an instant, the thought of shrinking her head into her neckline even appeared in her mind, but unfortunately, because the school uniform on her body did not default to this function when it was designed, so Asagami Fujino had to dispel this tempting idea.
It's rare for Emiya Shirou to come here to observe the class, but at the same time, it also attracted the attention of everyone around her, and the two emotions of happiness and shyness reached the extreme at the same time, and for a while, bursts of white smoke almost came out of Asakami Fujino's little head!
"Well, that's fine."
Sensing the strangeness on Asakami Fujino's face, Emiya Shirou moved over silently. On the surface, it seemed that he wanted to look down at Asakami Fujino's notes from a different angle, but in fact, he was just right in front of her, using his body to separate the sight of most of the boys in the class, and at the same time, he smiled bitterly in his heart.
Three years ago, when he transferred to high school as a child, the boys in his class were so out of control
Three years later, when he walked in as a half-adult, the children in the class reacted exactly the same way as they had at the beginning
In the case of the former, it can also be said that because those boys are in puberty, they are seeing beautiful women (?) I was very excited when I was born, but if the latter is a real elementary school student! Why do they react the same way?
With such a question in his mind, he hid a wry smile in his heart, Emiya Shirou brushed his hair lightly, and then buried his head in the guidance of Asakami Fujino
"Anyway, Saber, what do you think of our Master, no, what do you think of Shirou?"
In a corner of the classroom, while the eyes of others were basically focused on Shirou Emiya, who was teaching Fujino Asagami homework, Joan of Arc suddenly accosted Saber, who was standing next to him.
"Why did you ask me that all of a sudden?" Saber looked at Joan of Arc in bewilderment, the hostility in her eyes had dissipated a lot more than when they met in the morning.
"No, there's no reason for that. Simply, I just want to know what you think. Smiling softly, Joan of Arc leaned against the wall next to Saber, "After all, this is a rare opportunity, so I want to talk to you about it." ”
"Shirou is an ideal person." Staring at Joan of Arc's face without saying a word, as if trying to read her mind from her expression, but, after a long moment, having to admit that he had seen nothing, Saber sighed softly, and then replied, "He is one of the best people I have ever met, even if he is unknown in his life, he will not hesitate to draw his sword to help anyone if he sees someone in danger." Especially, when facing women, he will look doubly graceful. As a friend, he is not only careful and gentle, but also cares about other feelings, and is a good person who will never make friends feel unhappy. As a companion, he is not only wise and intelligent, but also calm and composed, if you stay with him, I feel that no matter what situation I encounter, there is no doubt that if I had been born in my time, he would have been a gentleman known for his virtue and resourcefulness, but even if he did, he had a very strict shortcoming. ”
"If you focus too much on helping others, it's easy to ignore your own safety and put yourself in danger, right?" Gently took Saber's words, and for the first time since they met, the smile on Joan of Arc's face took on a hint of bitterness.
Under that expression, faintly, there was a trace of self-blame and guilt.
The scene of Shirou Emiya falling in blood in order to protect her in the past is still vividly remembered, even though nearly a year has passed, the self-blame at the beginning has not been diluted.
The only thing she could do was to keep this guilt deep in her heart
"Hmm" Seeing Joan of Arc actually show such an expression, Saber couldn't help but be slightly shocked in his heart.
This expression was not unfamiliar to her in the past, and when her subordinates saw her injured, they always had this expression on their faces.
This self-reproach comes from the knight's sense of responsibility to himself, and from the pride of the heroic spirit in himself.
Reminiscent of Emiya Shirou saying that he was seriously injured and dying of death, even if he still hasn't known the whole story, Saber probably has a trace of what happened that day.
There was no doubt that Joan of Arc in front of her had encountered the situation she had imagined, and thinking of this, Saber couldn't help but feel a little pity for the blonde saint in front of her.
Although there is no official fight, Joan of Arc's strength is similar to her
The enemy that even she and Emiya Shirou couldn't solve with each other, even if they were replaced by Saber and went into battle by themselves, I am afraid that the result will only be similar to Joan of Arc
Looking at Shirou Emiya, who has a similar personality, Saber is like looking at Joan of Arc in a similar situation in a mirror, but Saber unconsciously feels close
It's the same end of the world
"Shirou, he has a word first, he wants to cut off his former fate by himself, so it is reasonable, I can't interfere, but you are different, when Shirou participated in the Holy Grail War in the previous life, it was you who stayed by his side. Therefore, now, among the people around Shirou who have combat effectiveness, you are the only one who can justifiably help him" The voice became softer and softer, Joan of Arc raised his head and stared at Saber's pupils, the smile on his face was swept away, replaced by an extremely serious look, "Saber In the past three years, Shirou, he will ask you." ”
