Eighty-one - The End of the Song (2)
"This is really what China calls Cao Cao, has Cao Cao arrived? It's a long knowledge" is completely different from the black Ji who happily greeted Zhu Yue over there, seeing that the person concerned really appeared, Zelrich's face was just like Valazia who saw Zhu Yue a few days ago, basically his face was so blue that he could even be thrown directly to the haunted house to make a cameo.
Yu muttered in his heart, and after repeatedly confirming that Zhu Yue was not looking at him, he didn't even dare to use the space transfer, just for fear that the other party would turn his head due to the fluctuation of the magic power, Zelrich walked up to Emiya Shirou's side and patted him on the shoulder heavily, waking the latter up from his thoughts.
"Having said that, since Zhu Yue herself is also here, you should have reminded the old man of me earlier! Teasing is also divided into time and occasion, if it makes the queen unhappy, my old bones can't bear it" Seeing that Emiya Shirou had woken up from his remarkable thinking mode, Zelrich lowered his voice stiffly, and then cut into Emiya's ear.
"You're self-satisfied. It's okay to tease me, at most I'll punch you in the face, one or two punches, who told you to tease the queen? and ridiculed in front of her daughter and subordinates, even if she died, she deserved it. Seeing that the cheeky old man in front of him not only did not have the slightest remorse, but also asked the wicked to sue first, Emiya Shirou rolled his eyes at him fiercely, made a gesture to wipe his neck and stuck out his tongue.
"It's really heartless" put on a sad look, Zelrich took a step back, stretched out his hand and pretended to wipe tears, "I think we obviously came to this fierce scene back then, and now we are going to abandon the old man and me?" It's too much~"
The correction is "a fierce battle", please do not omit the main words indiscriminately. Or do you want me to punch you again? Face and belly! Even if I have the compassion to give you this choice?" A big crossroads popped up again in his head, his fingers clasped and snapped, and Emiya Shirou squinted at Zelrich with a smile on his face.
"It's really terrible~ Opening and closing the mouth is the topic of beating the elderly, and young people nowadays don't have the slightest concept of respecting the elderly, huh?" With a long sigh, Zelrich shook his head and looked disappointed. However, when Zen Ridge shook his head, the corner of his eye caught Joan of Arc who had ended the battle because the other party no longer had the will to fight, and walked back behind Emiya Shirou with a flat face.
At that moment, a hint of a smile appeared on Zelrich's lips. Sweeping away the complaining expression just now, Zelrich put a wicked smile on his shoulder,
"Speaking of which, something suddenly occurred to me."
"Huh?" Just like just now, a sense of foreboding swelled up in Emiya Shirou's heart again. So, on the surface, he just shook his head in confusion, however, in fact, the fist hidden in his sleeve had a trace of white arc. In Emiya Shirou's plan, as long as Zelrich said a wrong word, his fist would immediately hit the old man's face again, and he wouldn't even give the old man an option.
It's just that if it's an occasion where the real sword wins or loses on the battlefield, it's better to say, in this kind of situation where both sides have let go of their hostility and is purely similar to chatting between friends, what does Emiya Shirou think in his heart, how could Zelrich, who has lived for at least two thousand years, not guess?
I had long expected that the other party might reward myself after I finished speaking. However, compared to the possibility of being beaten, Zelrich believed that what he said was enough to throw Emiya Shirou into confusion, based on his observation of people's feelings over the past two thousand years
Zelrich put his lips to the latter's ear, and then spoke slowly
"I said, since you didn't have a relationship with the queen, and you didn't control the kind of Lori that Hei Ji, then the stunning beauty behind you is probably your sweetheart~ Old man, did I guess wrong? Huh?"
Well, it's just, how to say, it's full of surprises, and what is unsatisfactory is the theorem of the world. Now is a good example of what is not necessarily useful
In the face of Zelrich's shocking dialogue, for a moment, Emiya Shirou and Joan of Arc fell into a petrified state at the same time, and then
"Shhhh
“!!!!!!”
In the next moment, the expressions of both of them fell into Yan zhòng's faltering.
In the former, on Emiya Shirou's side, the white arc of electricity on the fist hidden in the sleeve of his shirt had long since dissipated, and the calmness on his face that he still maintained even in the face of Elt Luqi and other strong men had long since disappeared without a trace, replaced by a red color comparable to a ripe apple, and as for giving Zelrich a slap in the face, he had completely thrown it out of the clouds.
The latter, Joan of Arc's side, his meticulous standard knightly standing posture also collapsed as if it had never existed from the beginning, and his snow-white face was even redder than Emiya Shirou, and smoke seemed to come out of his head.
After all, unlike Zhu Yue, who has only known each other for less than a month, and her identity and strength are far apart, and she was beaten half to death by the other party, Joan of Arc and Emiya Shirou have not only been together for more than a year, but have also been living together. If you count the time spent together, not only is it longer than Aoko and Yuzhu Kuenji, but even the time that Emiya Shirou spent with Saber in his two lives is not comparable. Basically, it can be said that he is one of the closest people to Emiya Shirou.
It's like when someone suddenly makes a joke about you and someone you've just met, saying that you have some kind of super friendship relationship, you will at most deny it lightly, and the flustered Cheng Dù may not be that big, you are always unfamiliar with that person, and the feeling is not strong. And I don't know how many times I will run into each other in the future, and the possibility of being revisited by old things is also low, at best, it is regarded as a small episode in a brief reunion with each other.
However, when the same situation is replaced by an acquaintance, the flustered Cheng dù is completely different from the above example. Let's not talk about whether there is really such a thing, since they are acquaintances with each other, then Cheng Dù, who first cares about this topic, is no longer comparable to the above understatement, and the feeling is naturally stronger than I don't know how many times. In addition, if you are an acquaintance, you will see each other more often, and you are more likely to think about it with each other.
Therefore, even if it is not true, as a state of cohabitation, it is enough to be embarrassed to suddenly be involved in such a topic. What's more, Zelrich's ridicule is not completely groundless, completely groundless, and this is why he dares to open up the palace Shirou.
Perhaps, with Emiya Shirou's absolute inverse ratio of EQ and IQ, and Joan of Arc, who has never officially liked others, these two parties do not perceive any discord between each other when they get along. However, for an old bystander like Zelrich, there is nothing more than "some discord" between Emiya Shirou and Joan of Arc, it is simply "very discordant".
If nothing else, the first thing that made Zelrich feel discordant was the tacit understanding between the two. You know, before Emiya Shirou rushed up to fight with Fu Hailin, he simply said "please" to Joan of Arc. If it weren't for someone very close, such as Zelrich himself, after he heard Emiya Shirou's "please", he would have generally taken a prune.
Come on? Does that mean rushing ahead of Emiya Shirou to open the way? Or do you want to stay behind Shirou Emiya and help him block attacks from behind, so that he can share the pressure of the former?
However, Joan of Arc did not hesitate to understand what Emiya Shirou meant, and stood in front of everyone in the burial agency. This tacit understanding shows that the two are at least like relatives and friends.
Of course, it may be possible to explain the above phenomenon with relatives and friends. But, beyond that, Zelrich has a decisive piece of evidence, and that is the distance between the two.
If it is said that the master and slave are friendly to each other, the servants will generally keep a certain distance from the master, which is the etiquette of the master and slave outside. Although it is no longer the Middle Ages when master-slaves prevailed in the past, and it is really unclear to other people Zelrich, judging from Joan of Arc's dress and her knightly behavior, she should not be a person who will not abide by master-slave etiquette.
In addition, as the opposite sex, even if they are familiar friends, as long as they are not lovers, they will subconsciously distance themselves from each other. Although if it weren't for the very few people who knew the inside story, they really couldn't see that Emiya Shirou was a man, but after all, for those who know, his gender was still there, and Joan of Arc next to him naturally couldn't be a man.
Since they are of different genders, the distance between them is closer than that between friends and master and slave, but it is not as close as the looming intimacy of real couples.
And at this moment, seeing the two of them wavering, Zelrich affirmed the guess in his heart.
"Hahaha, the old man really guessed it. Well, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't understand amorous feelings, so it won't hinder the development of a relationship between the two of you, and the matter of joining the Magicians Association will be discussed later. By the way, if you get married, remember to count the old man and me~" Finally won back a city in the hands of Emiya Shirou, and even forgot to lower his voice, Zelrich laughed loudly.
Then, before the two of them could come to their senses, Zelrich smiled and raised his cloak, and the next moment he appeared beside Bazet. Then, pressing Bazette's shoulder with one hand and using the space transfer again, Zelrich's figure disappeared into the sea forest. Only Emiya Shirou, who came back to his senses and gritted his teeth to settle accounts with him, and Joan of Arc, whose pretty face was still as red as an apple
