Chapter 21: Changing Tracks
Early in the morning, Emiya Shirou woke up on time, prepared breakfast, cleaned up his slightly messy hair, and when everyone woke up, it was the time for the morning news to be broadcast, and by the time Shirou sat down, Saber had already knelt there. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
And looking at the appearance of this sword hero, at this time, he was engrossed in watching TV, and following her gaze, Shirou also saw the news that was being broadcast live on TV, which was the situation of the Liudong Temple on Yuanzang Mountain, at this time, it had completely become a ruin, and the surrounding woods had all turned into charred black......
"This is?! Saber, I remember, Rin said yesterday that Ryudong Temple was the base of the caster, and the caster was the culprit who caused those ordinary people to be attacked, right? ”
"Well, that's true, and, last night, Rin and Archer went to Ryuto Temple to investigate."
Shirou frowned and asked Saber, while the dignified Sword Hero nodded his head and replied in the affirmative to Shirou, his eyes still focused on the image on the TV.
"Then look at the current situation, the Yanagito Temple side must have suffered a blow, and Caster's words have been ...... by Rin and Archer."
"Not really!"
Shirou thought very naturally, and from the situation in the news, it must have been a huge blow to the caster side anyway, but at this moment, another familiar voice interjected, and it sounded as if he was in a rather bad mood.
"Uhhh
The door to the entrance was pulled open suddenly, and Rin in red also appeared in front of Shirou, and without saying anything immediately, he took a step and walked to the edge of the table, and sat down with a ladylike ass.
"Rin? What did you just mean? ”
"Huh? Needless to say? Literally, of course! ”
Shirou cautiously asked calmly at Rin, and Rin, who heard Shirou's question, turned his head, opened his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and for some reason, he looked at Shirou and said unceremoniously.
"If Archer can do this, then I'm really relieved! Unfortunately, while Caster did lose, it had nothing to do with me and Archer, and we hadn't even met Caster yet. ”
"What?! So ......"
"That's exactly what happened!"
Rin looked at Shirou as if he was holding his breath, and said quite unpleasantly, even making Shirou wonder if she would throw it directly at her if she was holding something in her hand, but before he could speak, Saber's sure voice rang out.
"It's Berserker, right? Seeing this, I was guessing that she should have defeated Caster, and now it looks like that, but is Caster such a powerful character? I can even let Berserker free his precious ......"
“berserker?! Is this really done by berserker?! ”
After hearing Saber's words, Shirou couldn't help but sigh with emotion, it was a kind of disbelief, in his impression, such a terrible destruction, and such a petite and quiet posture, it was really difficult to connect, even if he knew that it was something that could not be understood by common sense.
"I said, just now you would think that Archer and I did it, but now that you heard that Sakura did it, why are you so surprised? Shouldn't it be a 'taken for granted' situation? Or rather...... Shirou, you don't still have such a naïve idea, right?! ”
Rin narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at Shirou, and said slowly, and in the end, her eyes widened and widened, as if she remembered something, and her expression became very surprised, and Shirou was touching his head with one hand at this time, looking embarrassed.
"That, that's a powerful Heroic Spirit, but as long as you associate that kind of destruction with such a little girl, it always feels a little weird......"
Shirou looked at Rin who was staring at him in front of him, blushing slightly and said, and Rin and Saber both sighed after staring at him for a while, their faces were slightly weak, and Saber's expression became much more serious in the next moment.
"Shirou! Please be sure to correct your opinion! Even if it was indeed the posture of a little girl, even if everything in the Berserker was very heavy, heavy and sympathetic, but, after all, she is now a heroic spirit, if not as an enemy, she is also a heroic spirit, and the heroic spirit does not need sympathy! ”
Saber said a long list of words to Shirou in one breath, although as an opponent, she was very jealous of Sakura, and she was disgusted by Sakura's many unsightly behaviors, but she also remembered the strength and majesty of that same girl in front of her eyes ten years ago......
"Ah...... Ah, I see, Saber......"
"I'm sorry, a little rude, but, Shirou, I hope you can understand that Heroic Spirits are all characters with merits that make them proud, and they all carry a weight that is enough to be remembered by the world!"
Shirou felt a little oppressed under Saber's momentum, and unconsciously leaned back, while Saber maintained that cautious and rigid etiquette and continued.
"Heh~ I really didn't expect it~ Such words will come out of your mouth, saber, don't you understand it very well?"
The red archers appeared, leaning against the wall without any manners, and the voice was as frivolous as ever, a little unpleasant, more like a provocation, especially with that somewhat flirtatious smile, but Rin only narrowed her eyes at this, she knew more about her servants than the others......
“archer! What do you mean?! Even if you are an ally, I can't ignore this frivolous and vulgar attitude! ”
Saber frowned slightly, stood up, looked at the tall white-haired hero, and said angrily, but Archer only laughed twice before Saber was about to draw his sword.
"Is it frisky and vulgar? After all, I'm just a small archer, but why would you want to be involved in the Holy Grail War, Saber, if you know the weight you carry? ”
"You ......"
After hearing Archer's words, Saber froze, looking directly into the eyes that seemed to know everything, and for a moment she didn't know what to say, she remembered her wishes, remembered the past, she had been so accused, and that man was also a king, a great king......
“archer!”
"Yes~ Actually, I'm not qualified to say this, because I'm actually the kind of person who can't see clearly......"
In Rin's slightly serious voice, Archer didn't say anything more to Saber, or maybe he felt that he was talking a little too much, probably because things had been too troublesome lately, but anyway, his purpose was clear from the beginning......
"So, let's talk about how to deal with Sakura in the future, it's that level, and her treasure is definitely the top level, with the magic supply of Illyasfil...... It's an invincible combination, and if you want to win, no, if you want to 'maintain', you have to discuss it......"
……
Among the castles of Einzbelen,
"In this case, now that the Assassin has withdrawn, and Caster's words, although he escaped, he is not a threat to the object, and the rest, not considering the words of the Ancient King, is Lancer, Saber, Archer, and undoubtedly the rider of the Maki family."
Serra calmly counted the current situation on the side, while Illya and Aki on the side were competing for the same pillow on the soft bed, and as for Sakura, she had already changed into an elegant dress and sat quietly on the side, with a cup of black tea on the table next to her.
"And then, after all, Caster will seek assistance, so as to form an alliance, and Lancer can rule it out, then, naturally, the first choice will be the Saber and Archer camps that will obviously be stronger, in this case...... I see! ”
Serra, who was thinking carefully, suddenly found something and looked at Sakura in surprise, and at the same time, Sakura, who was aware of her gaze, also calmly turned her head and glanced at Serra calmly, and didn't care about anything else......
"It turns out that you have calculated this point, and you want to take this opportunity to catch all these three servants?! In that case, we have a complete victory! ”
"No, now, probably, it won't develop like this, except for Gilgamesh, probably, there are other enemies......"
"What?! Do you mean, in the midst of this Holy Grail War, there is an eighth group of participants?! ”
Sakura's eyes looked at the lush woods outside the window, and said calmly, not caring about Serra's surprised inquiry, but thinking about something to herself, although there was only a brief glimpse, but that feeling, the figure that could not be seen clearly, always made Sakura feel a sense of crisis......
