Ninety-Seven-Teacher, Friend!
"Heart?"
Subconsciously repeated Emiya Shirou's words once, and Rin Tosaka couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The magician's inherent thinking has nothing to do with herself, isn't that what she wants to say the most?
As a trainee magician, she knew very well that it was not a good thing for a family to have two offspring with magic circuits at the same time, so she never questioned her father's decision.
But is that really true? Is there really no other way than to pass my sister to someone else's house? Or, if you keep your sister, will the price really be so big?
As an underage magician, Rin Tosaka doesn't know the answer to the above questions.
There is only one thing she knows, and that is that she really wants her sister to stay with her!
Although, she knew very well that the young man in front of her was not (?) Probably knows about her past
However, even though the other party is just talking about his own outlook on life, every word he says speaks to Rin Tosaka's heart.
Is the magician's iron law really that important? Will the child who has passed by must be cut off from his own family from now on?
Can't she pick up her sister?
As if trying to seek Emiya Shirou's advice, Rin Tosaka looked up with a tentative look.
"What, what!" However, when she noticed that the other party was looking at her with a smile, a touch of crimson appeared on Rin Tosaka's face, "Hmph! Obviously, you're only about the same age as me, but Miss Ben, who pretends to be mature or something, doesn't eat this set!"
"That's not good, have I seen through my plan?" With a chuckle, Emiya Shirou pretended to be helpless and waved his hand, "Well, but having said that, it's true that I have a little more experience than you." After all, I've been out of the country for several years, and it's only been a recent time since I came back to settle down. β
"Huh? Trick people, you've been out there for years?" Rin Tosaka looked Emiya Shirou up and down in surprise, "You look like you're only about twelve years old now, can you say that you started training when you were nine years old?"
"Hawkers,To be precise, when I was ten years old, I ran outside by myself without telling my guardian" After a pause, with a nostalgic look, Emiya Shirou casually glanced at Lori Rin in front of him, "Well, let's put it this way." A long time ago, one day, I was suddenly caught up in a very troublesome and dangerous thing. At that time, I was far from mature in terms of strength and mind, whether as a human being or as a magician. To put it mildly, that's the rookie among rookies! Then, in that incident, I lost a few of the people who were most important to me at the time. β
"What?"
Startled by the unexpectedly heavy content, Rin Tosaka couldn't help but cover her small mouth and exclaimed.
Originally, it was just a battle of wills, but I didn't expect that it would cause the other party to recall such a painful experience.
"Yes, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to."
For a moment, I thought of the pain I felt when I remembered my dead father and mother
A guilty look appeared on his little face, and Rin Tosaka hurriedly bowed to Emiya Shirou to admit his mistake.
"Hehe, what a good boy, I really didn't see the wrong person." With an inexplicable smile, Emiya Shirou took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand to stroke Rin Tosaka's little head, "Well, on the premise of not losing oneself, looking back on the painful experience of the past is originally a source of power for human beings to strive forward, so there is nothing to care about at all, compared to this, do you want to continue listening?"
"Hmm"
Maybe it's because she just said the wrong thing and that the other party does have the aura of an elder on her?
Rarely, she didn't pat Emiya Shirou's hand, Rin Tosaka just nodded slightly, and then let Emiya Shirou continue to touch her little head.
"Hehe" Seeing the well-behaved appearance of Rin Tosaka in front of him, Emiya Shirou couldn't help but smile again, "I once heard that pain Chubo makes people excited, and now it seems that how correct this statement is?" It was only after I lost those important people that I realized how small my power really was, and how naΓ―ve and immature my thoughts were. So, from that day on, I always wanted to be stronger. As for practice, that's what I just said about going out to practice. Although there was only one person at the beginning, but gradually, I met many friends who I had known during the journey. Among them, there are not only bad friends, but also like-minded friends, and many people who are more important to me than my own life. Through communication with them, through learning from them, and experiencing a lot of battles, I gradually honed my mind and strength. Eventually, I became what I am now. β
"Experienced?"
With a look of yearning, Rin Tosaka gently repeated it.
Being able to meet trustworthy friends and successfully hone one's strength There is no doubt that the purpose of Emiya Shirou's experience outside the home sounds like it has been perfectly achieved. And his usual momentum and the strength he just showed were enough to confirm that he was not lying.
If she had also gone out to practice, would she have been able to achieve what the other party has achieved today?
"Well, having said that, you must not learn from me" Seeing a look of envy on Rin Tosaka's face, Emiya Shirou hurriedly added his own statement, "It's too reckless to run out alone!" Don't look at me now, I can still stand here alive, in fact, I have experienced many life and death situations during the journey. On several occasions, it was only by luck that he was able to get his life back. If the enemy does not suddenly lose the will to fight in a certain battle, if my friend does not arrive in a certain battle, if my friend does not succeed in triggering the ability of her weapon in a certain battle, then even three lives are not enough. β
"But how can you be strong if you don't experience danger?"
"I don't deny that experiencing danger makes people stronger, but this is not the only way to become stronger."
Seeing Rin Tosaka's stubborn eyes, Emiya Shirou couldn't help but sigh.
As a friend who knew the other party for the third life, he knew very well what this kind of look meant.
If he didn't find a way to stop the other party today, maybe tomorrow this little girl would have run out alone.
It is certainly a good thing for children to have perseverance and awareness, but for guardians, it is a fatal trouble.
Now, he finally experienced a little bit of Fujimura Taiga's mentality that day
"For example, how about chasing a target that is stronger than yourself, and then talking to him a little more often? That's what I do in normal times. Although the efficiency may not be as good as the real life-and-death battle, it is very suitable for beginners. β
"But there is no such person around me" For a while, she couldn't find the meaning behind Emiya Shirou's words, and Lori Rin shook her head in confusion.
Indeed, finding someone stronger than yourself is a very safe and efficient way to become stronger.
However, the premise is that such a person must be found!
Although her brother may be able to take on this role, due to personal reasons, not only does she not want to ask her brother for help, but she also does not think that her brother will agree to help from time to time.
As a result, the problem is back to square one. What should be done in terms of candidates?
"So," shaking his head and smiling bitterly, Emiya Shirou pointed to himself, "I'll take on this role." May I?
P.S.1: Huh~ Shirou and Rin's different reunion is finally over. After all, Shirou can't go to the pole jumping again in this life, so I changed the way to let them contact him, although I don't know how many people can see it, but the pawnshop's stalk is actually from F/HA, in other words, in fact, I was already burying the foreshadowing when Yi Ai appeared again at the beginning. Next, after a casual interlude, it's the occasion of the Dumb Hair King!
P.S.2: Thanks for the vote "The number thief must die".
