The remnant sun was like blood, and the glow of the sunset sprinkled from the sky, enveloping every qiē on the ground.

Perhaps, it's because of the afterglow?

The orange-red sunlight is warm and comfortable, but it does not give people a feeling of heat. Under this kind of sunlight, people are warmed up and down, as if even the tired body and mind have been nourished, and people are full of vitality again.

"I'm back~"

The journey of three days and three nights has passed in the blink of an eye.

Taking advantage of the afterglow of the setting sun, Emiya Shirou slowly pushed open the door of his house.

What I saw was the knight Ji who was waiting for the return of the deed owner.

"Shirou, welcome back."

The emerald green pupils exude a look of care and reassurance.

The face is as delicate as a doll, and it is filled with a warm smile that makes people feel like a spring breeze.

Smiling lightly at the returning deed, the blonde knight slowly straightened up, clearing the way to the living room.

Although he thought that it should be impossible, but seeing the other party's posture waiting for him at the entrance, and then thinking of the other party's character, Emiya Shirou still asked with a wry smile, "I said, Saber, you shouldn't have been waiting for me here since this morning, right?"

"As a knight, it's a common thing to wait for the master who is out to come back, right? Since Shirou didn't give me a special time to come back, I waited for it from the morning, so is there anything wrong with that?" Saber's emerald eyes blinked in confusion.

"It's a big mistake, don't do it in the future." Looking at Saber with a natural face in front of him, Emiya Shiro felt powerless, so he had to stroke the corner of his forehead with a faint pain and said, "It's not fun to do nothing and wait here for hours. Not giving an accurate account of the time of return is my own problem, and there is no reason for you to suffer for my mistakes, Saber, right? All in all, don't do it in the future, I'll be embarrassed. ”

"I see, that is, do you take your own responsibility? It's really a Shirou-style answer. I understand. After listening carefully to Emiya Shirou's words, Saber nodded in agreement, and then after Emiya Shirou breathed a sigh of relief with half surprise, he smiled and said, "So, I refuse." ”

"Hmm?!!"

Although Emiya Shirou was already wondering why Saber would agree so happily this time, the reaction that was nearly 180 degrees different before and after still made him almost fall to the ground.

It took a full few seconds to come back to his senses, and Emiya Shirou opened his mouth and said, "Saber"

"Shirou, I'll just remind you first." With a narrow smile in his eyes, before Emiya Shirou could finish speaking, Saber had already interrupted him first, "Whether it's governing the country or persuading others, you can't even do it yourself, but it's not convincing at all?"

"Hmm"

"Let's use an analogy. If our position is reversed, and I go out for something and I don't say the exact time of my return, but only give the date of my return, I'm afraid Shirou, you will not only stay at home all day, but also prepare breakfast, lunch, and dinner with my portions, right?"

"Hmm"

The smile on his face did not diminish, and Saber smiled and brought his face to a place less than ten centimeters away from Emiya Shirou, "So, since you are a role model (deedmaster) Shirou and you do the same, then it is only natural for me as a learner (servant) to do it, right~"

The white and flawless snow skin is close at the moment.

A faint fragrance came from the girl in front of her, and then burrowed into Emiya Shirou's nose.

The long eyelashes seemed to touch his eyes if they were any closer. Several strands of blonde hair rubbed against his face, and there was a tickling sensation. Vaguely, it seems that you can still feel the warm breath of the other party

"Woo!! Ming, got it! I see, anyway, don't get so close to your face! It's not good for the heart!!"

Under Saber's gaze, Emiya Shirou's face flushed with embarrassment, and Bai Yu's face seemed to have a fever, and almost reflexively bounced in front of the wall.

Seeing Emiya Shirou's extremely embarrassed expression, Saber couldn't help but chuckle, the feeling of restraint in the past was no longer there.

"Hmm, why does it always feel like Saber is getting more and more like that guy now? Sure enough, it was a bad decision to take her past the pawnshop before!"

Looking at Saber, who was in an excellent mood in front of him, Emiya Shirou smiled wryly from the corner of his eyes, but in the depths of his emotions, he felt extremely relieved.

It's been three years since the two met again in this life, and Saber has read all the memories of Emiya Shirou's previous life, and even his life up to the time of slashing, killing, eight, qi, and big snakes.

The memories after that, although I knew that it was preserved, but there was no sign of sharing it anymore, but even if it were, it was a minutiae, and the important thing was that Saber had been able to read what happened to them in the Holy Grail War from beginning to end through the memories of Emiya Shirou!

The battle of principles that night three years ago brought the estrangement between the two men to a halt

After three years of uninterrupted memory sharing and spending time with Asaha for a long time, Saber was able to get to know Emiya Shirou again, and gradually cultivated a unique bond.

Although, Emiya Shirou really doesn't know if his memory sharing with Saber stems from the nonsense of those two loli? Or is it something else? Either way, he reaped the benefits.

At this moment, although the relationship between the two is already a lot different from what they remember in the past, at least Saber in front of him has left a lot of unnecessary attachments behind, not as a knight king, but as a young girl Artoria living here, and for Emiya Shirou, this is enough.

Whether he can regain his former feelings is really about to be proved by time, but if each other can live happily, for Emiya Shirou, it will already be the greatest comfort to him.

"So to celebrate my return, let's eat a little more hearty today!"

If you are a discerning person, it is basically impossible not to know, cook it yourself, and then taste it yourself, which is really not a pleasure.

But seriously, what's the point of the name?

All that matters to Emiya Shirou is that Saber is able to eat happily.

Looking at Saber, who has regained the emotions of ordinary people in front of him, and thinking of the tragedies known to him in the past since he was reborn, most of them have now turned into nothing, and Shirou's heart can't help but feel a burst of fulfillment and comfort.

Many births and deaths have proved not in vain

As long as he survives the next Holy Grail War and saves Illya, the long-cherished wish of many years is no longer a dream at this moment.

Hiding his sorrow and anticipation deep inside, he quietly watched himself in his heart, and after saying hello to Saber, Emiya Shirou silently walked in the direction of the kitchen
