I have to say that, as Yi Ai said, even now that the power of faith has been greatly reduced, her strength is still terrifying.

Although the failure to deliberately take defensive measures was also one of the factors in defeat, it is also true that Emiya Shirou was knocked unconscious by a punch from a girl.

I don't know how long I slumbered, but finally, Emiya Shirou stretched out a groan and slowly opened his eyes.

"Huh?"

As soon as he woke up, Emiya Shirou felt a softness beneath him.

After looking closely, I realized that at some point, the wooden chair I was sitting on had turned into an old dark blue sofa. Emiya Shirou slowly sat up straight, and opposite him was Ai, who had returned to the chair at the cash register and was leisurely reading the newspaper with his glasses on.

"Oh? Have you woken up?" Even if she kept her eyes off the newspaper, her instincts alone were enough for Yi Ai to know what was going on behind her. At this moment, he gently took off his glasses, and then put down the newspaper in his hand again, Yi Ai turned his head and looked at Emiya Shirou, "How is it?" Can you remember what just happened?"

"Just now"

Because of the chaos in his brain, he subconsciously followed Yi Ai's words and thought However, before Emiya Shirou could think of something, Yi Ai on the other side had already glared at him fiercely, which scared the former into a thrill, and even the chaotic brain suddenly woke up.

Vaguely, it seems that you can still see the black gas behind the other party

In other words, if Emiya Shirou didn't guess wrong, in fact, the meaning behind Ai's words just now was 'If you remember, I'll beat you up again until you completely forget about it', right?!!! If you really say it, it's your own death!!

"Can you remember what just happened?" Keeping the sweet smile on her face, Iai repeated the question.

"Just, just! I think it seems like saying that you're planning to flee to my titular territory, right?! ”

Now that his life is threatened, he decisively chooses to give in unconditionally, and Emiya Shirou forcibly erases the rare memories completely.

Are you kidding? I was only hit by the white fist, and I have been asleep since the afternoon! If you eat more, wouldn't you want to stay overnight? The afterglow of the sunset outside the window is dazzling in every sense of the word!

"Then why do you suddenly fall asleep in the middle of a conversation?" It's a pity that even though Emiya Shirou has desperately wanted to get out of this dangerous topic, as if he likes Emiya Shirou's sweaty expression, Yi Ai asked reluctantly.

"Well," a drop of sweat slid down Emiya's forehead.

"What's this?" Ai shook her head with a smile.

"Well!!! this" The sweat on his forehead almost gathered into two streams, and he turned his head quickly, and Emiya Shirou searched for a qiē word to try to save himself, "Probably not!" It must be because I'm too tired, right? ”

"Oh?"

I don't know what the smile on his face means, but all in all, Ai gave Emiya Shirou a look for him to continue.

"You, you really don't know! My sister Teng, early this morning, before even seven o'clock, woke me up and said that I would take me to the temple to worship, and this situation has been going on for two days! You know, humans usually need at least seven hours of sleep, so I can't help but doze off when the fatigue is accumulating. ”

Ahahaha, is there still a god who has fallen due to two days of fatigue this year?

Saying nonsense that even he didn't believe, Emiya Shirou glanced at Yi Ai over there in fear.

Unexpectedly, the other party seemed to be quite satisfied.

"Fujimura is still so energetic."

"That's right! I wish she could give me a little bit of energy. ”

"So you fell asleep on your own because you were so tired, right?"

"That's right!"

"Nothing to do with me?"

"Isn't that what it is?"

"Well, that's good!"

Finally, Yi Ai nodded in satisfaction, and that was the end of the conversation.

Seeing that the other party finally let him go, Emiya Shirou couldn't help but exhale with relief.

I always feel that there is a feeling of prostration all over my body Sure enough, dealing with this royal sister in front of me, a certain Cheng dù is really more tiring than dealing with Zhu Yue

"So, let's get back to our original topic."

As the saying goes, 'Everything should be done in moderation,' and as one of the few gods who have survived to the present day, Iai knows this very well.

Although, aside from the only pleasure of catching small animals, she did spend thousands of years of miserable days waiting to meet Emiya Shirou again. But if you think about it the other way, since it has been thousands of years, you don't have to rush to trick him if you want to play tricks on him.

So, it was not without regret that he let go of this opportunity, and Yi Ai continued to explain seriously, "After seeing the snake raised by Araralu, I suddenly thought of the idea of escaping to your territory. After all, although Enlir was indeed the king of the gods in name, in reality at that time, there were two completely different systems of gods on the eastern continent, both in terms of strength and scale. The larger of them has always been neutral, so I won't talk about it, but the smaller one is the god of this realm. To flee here is to escape from Enlier's sphere of influence. With this in mind, I had been quietly preparing for the decisive battle between Enlir and Anu, and finally came here when he couldn't react. ”

"I see, I finally understand why and how you came to this country. But why on earth did you know that I had my own territory in the Far East?" After a long silence, Emiya Shirou raised his own questions.

Not only is his territory (the Izumo area) very far away from the end of the firmament where Ai used to live in seclusion, but even Emiya Shirou's name in history is very different from his real name.

In that case, it stands to reason that it should be very difficult for Yi Ai to get this information

"Hmph, do you really think that my seclusion at the end of the sky means isolation? A minimum of intelligence gathering is still underway. Ai glared at Emiya Shirou dissatisfied, and then continued, "'Izumo Land belongs to the hero who slew the Yaki Orochi', originally, that little girl was not right, and this is how the little girl preached to the gods under her command, and even the entire outside world. The reason why there will be a great power lord god in the future is only because if you continue to set up empty seats, it will be very inconvenient for the governance, so the little girl was forced to take temporary measures in desperation, so that the big country lord god took over the place in the name of your son-in-law. As for the war between the main gods of the great powers and the gods of Takamagahara, it was completely invented by later generations. ”

"Is Izumo a place for the heroes who slew the Yaki Orochi?" In fact, from the very beginning, there was one thing that caught my attention. After a pause, as if thinking of something, Emiya Shirou's face showed a complicated look, "Xiaodong is not right, how is Xiaoxue now?"

P.S.1: Because I had to explain the details of the matter to Shirou (which was actually equivalent to the summary of my trip to Mesopotia), and by the way, I had to bury some foreshadowing (there are at least three foreshadowings in these four chapters, two of which are quite important, and the other one has already been guessed in the book review section, how many can you see?), and before I knew it, I wrote four chapters to guarantee that the next chapter would be over.

P.S.2: It's weird to look at (one), (two), (three), (four), and (five), so I just want to switch all the titles in one go.

P.S.3: It's Saturday, but it's really not like it's the guy who got up at seven o'clock to go to school! At least give me a delay of half an hour!!
