"Protect every inch" To Saber's surprise, this time, instead of agreeing to her mention happily, Emiya Shirou looked embarrassed, "Let me confirm that the so-called "not leaving an inch" means staying together when sleeping, right?"

"Well, any particular questions?" Saber nodded at the still childish face, then looked at Emiya Shirou with a puzzled look.

"No, there are a lot of problems."

Feeling the confusion in Saber's gaze, Emiya Shirou sighed softly.

Although the situation is different, I didn't expect to encounter the same problem as at the beginning.

According to the normal situation, if a man wants to sleep with a beautiful girl he has liked for many years, that man is of course desperate. However, the problem is that Emiya Shirou has no plans to cross that line yet!

What a test it is for a person who is physically and mentally sound to let a young man who is strong in blood and even more of an adult hold the object of his crush for many years to sleep without anything happening!

The reason why he was able to barely stay awake in Elquit's arms and run to study magic in his mind in the past was because he had not yet mastered the law of time at that time, and he was only a ten-year-old child when he looked at it horizontally and vertically, and nothing could happen, and on the other hand, it was thanks to the fact that there was a man who was far from being an adult sleeping next to him, as long as he thought of a meaty little Lori next to him, Emiya Shirou could always be vigilant in his mind, and would rather think about pi than have evil thoughts.

But so now?

Naturally, the mental age has already reached adulthood and so on

The Law of Time has long been proficient, and it is only a matter of a moment for Emiya Shirou to become an adult

Although the house looked large from the outside, it was actually only Shirou Emiya and Saber who were alone with each other, and there was no third party, let alone underage children

If he really agreed, Emiya Shirou would not lose his mind within the same day, and I am afraid that he would have a nervous breakdown within three days.

In order to protect his own life, now, Emiya Shirou has to fight.

"Just in case, I'll make sure first, Saber, you know I'm a boy, right?"

"Hmm. Although Shirou was so beautiful that he almost mistook you for an acquaintance's daughter because you were so similar to my acquaintance at the moment of meeting, I learned that Shirou was a man when you said that you had a girl you liked. But what's wrong with that?"

"No, I mean, just when you think of the problem of lonely men and widows sharing a room as "no problem", it was already a big problem," Seeing that Saber's face was still nonchalant, Emiya Shirou couldn't help but sigh again.

It's not that I don't understand why the other party has such remarks. Rather, after nearly two lifetimes of getting along, Emiya Shirou knows very well what Saber is thinking now.

Sure enough, the biggest problem now is that Saber's mind is back to square one!

Whether it's the idea of not seeing herself as a woman at all, or the utopian dream of using the Holy Grail to save the country, these are values that are ingrained in Saber's heart.

At the beginning, in order to change these inappropriate thoughts, Emiya Shirou (the previous life) also spent countless lips and tongues, coupled with all kinds of things that happened during the day and night, and barely succeeded in persuading Saber to put aside the heavy burden of the past and live as a girl again.

Now, since Yiqiē is back to square one, it means that he has to re-persuade the other party, and this thing is not a task that can be completed overnight

"No, before women, I have a more important identity. Even if I take a hundred steps back, assuming that I am really a woman, Shirou, you don't need to worry so much at all. After all, as a severant, it is my duty to protect Shirou. Even if I came in my true form, Shirou, you don't have to see me as a human being. ”

An awe-inspiring voice spoke of Saber's position for herself. The firm tone of his voice reflected Saber's deep belief in this.

In her thinking, the Heroic Spirit is the Heroic Spirit, and the human is the human being, and the two have neither intersected nor can be compared.

Just like at the beginning, she really didn't think that Emiya Shirou needed to treat her differently because "she was a woman or something".

"Well, anyway, let's put this question aside for now."

Then, and no doubt, Emiya Shirou scoffed at Saber's opinion without even having a fraction of a second to think.

Is there a more important identity before women? A hundred steps back to be a woman?

How ridiculous?!!

A truly strong man, both inside and out. Physical strength is important, but at the same time, mental strength cannot be ignored.

If you can't even admit the fact that you are a woman, if you just erase your sincerity to pursue the so-called perfection, then you can train a pair of armor that looks incomparably gorgeous and hard, and in the eyes of insiders, you are just an opponent who will be defeated with one blow.

Even if it is assumed that no one can achieve unparalleled honor in an instant, it is only a fleeting product after all. In the final analysis, if we have to deny even the foundation (the heart) that supports us to move forward, how can we have a bright future?

"You said you want to protect every inch of the ground, but there are still more than three years before the next Holy Grail War begins! Do you want to protect me inseparably for three whole years, Saber?"

Of course, the above words from the bottom of his heart, Emiya Shirou will not announce them. Or rather, it's far from the time to say it.

Everything must be done gradually, and this is true when it comes to doing things, and even more so when it comes to changing the mentality of others!

Even if you want to persuade the other party, you need to wait until the relationship between the two parties has developed to a certain point before the other party is willing to consider accepting your bitter advice, and the mentality of being anxious for results is never advisable, and the idea of achieving something overnight will only bring backfire at any time.

Therefore, Emiya Shirou was not in a hurry to persuade the other party, but only faintly tried to bring the topic back to the moment, that is, Saber wanted close protection including sleeping
