"Ah, I'm very happy, too."

Looking at Matthew's beautiful face with a renewed smile, feeling the slightest warmth transmitted from her palm, Firena couldn't help laughing, and whispered, at this moment, both of them felt that each other's hearts seemed to be a little closer.

"Fu~! Fufu~! ”

It seemed that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between the two, and Fufu, who was quite spiritual, suddenly called out, breaking the feelings between them. Then some bared teeth grinned at Firena, and called a few more warily, as if dissatisfied with her contamination, Matthew, who should have belonged to her.

Seeing that the little one was grinning at herself as if claiming territory, Firena looked at Mathieu's lilac eyes, and then the two of them snorted and laughed in unison, which made Fufu, who couldn't turn her head for a while, puzzled.

After laughing, Matthew teased Fufu who was squatting on his shoulder, then turned his head to look at the oppressive sky shrouded in black clouds, and asked softly in the light of the fire that flickered from time to time:

"Now, senior. You say, have there ever been blue skies here? ”

"Of course, there must have been a blue sky here."

Looking from afar, the inky sky in the distance, connected to the gloomy Yuanzang Mountain, was so heavy that it seemed to fall, so oppressive that the whole world was silent, leaving only the burning flames around her, constantly beating under Firena's eyes.

The light of the fire was faint, like a mountain with a bloody mouth open, and Firena's gaze became more and more solemn, because she knew that in the very center of the mountain, a fierce battle had quietly begun, waiting for them to enter.

Tightening the small hand in the palm of his hand, the careful Matthew naturally knew what his master was thinking at the moment. Although the Yuanzang Mountain was still gloomy and terrifying at this moment, like a huge trap, exuding a chilling aura, the slightest warmth from the palm of her hand gave her incomparably great courage at this moment, so that she was no longer afraid in her heart.

Turning his gaze to the dark and oppressive sky again, Matthew's lilac eyes couldn't help revealing a look of yearning, and then he muttered on his lips:

"The outside world is really amazing, I don't know how beautiful the original sky here will be."

"Now, Matthew. Remember what I said to you? I will definitely take you out and see the outside world, the wider sky. ”

Although Matthew's voice was soft, her muttering was still heard by Firena, and after saying this, Firena felt a gaze that was looking at her face.

Looking up, I saw that Matthew was staring at his face at this moment, with a hint of a smile on his delicate face, and his lilac eyes flashed with a different kind of brilliance.

"I believe in you, senpai!"

Soft but firm words floated out of Matthew's cherry mouth, although it was just a simple sentence, but Firena knew that she had entrusted all her trust to herself without reservation.

Looking at each other, the corners of the two mouths invariably pursed a smile, and in the palms of the deadly interlocking hands, they couldn't tell who it was, and they were transmitting heat to each other, but both of them felt it at the same time, and a warmth quietly arose in their hearts.

The eyes became more and more blurred, and between Firena and Matthew, a faint feeling quietly emerged, and as this emotion rose, the distance between the heads of the two became closer and closer.

"Fu~!"

However, just as the two of them were getting closer and closer, Fufu's rapid and sharp cry was broken in an instant, and the atmosphere that the two had just created was instantly, and their faces quickly separated crimson, and they both looked at each other a little embarrassed, and the scene was very embarrassing for a while.

"Fufu~!"

On the other side, Fufu, who was the spoiler, called out quite proudly after seeing the two separate, and immediately sat down on Matthew's shoulder again, with a pair of soybean-sized eyes, like a rival in love, staring at Firena, and from time to time let out some low voices, warning her to keep her previous promise.

The awkward atmosphere began to spread gradually, and in order to break this atmosphere, Firena couldn't help but take a deep breath, then turned around and said:

"That, Matthew."

"That, Senpai!"

As if an appointment had been made, Matthew chose to ask Firena at the same time in order to break the awkward atmosphere.

Look at each other, you look at me, I look at you. She couldn't help but freeze in place, and after a while, they erupted into laughter like silver bells, which made Fufu who was standing on her shoulder wonder.

Wiping the tears that overflowed from the corners of her eyes, Firena, after calming down, said to Matthew:

"Matthew, tell me first, what's going on."

"Then I'll talk about it first, senior. Although I am still just an immature servant, I want to challenge Lancelot. ”

Although Matthew's face still had a trace of crimson just now, when she picked up the shield again, she was as heroic as a Valkyrie descending on the battlefield at this moment, in stark contrast to her low appearance just now, and immediately said sonorously:

"As you just said, maybe I can understand how to use the Noble Phantasm in the battle with Lancelot."

"Yes, yes. Go, go. ”

Nodding, seeing that Matthew was rejuvenated, Firena's heart couldn't help but feel a lot more steady.

While sincerely happy for Matthew, Firena's eyes couldn't help but glance over the gloom around the corner of the corridor, and then her eyes rolled again, and she said to Matthew in a somewhat wicked manner:

"I'm very optimistic about you, Matthew, don't lose to Lancelot. Remember, be sure to give me a good beating with all your might. Hahahaha. ”

"I'll do my best, senior!"

Gripping the shield tightly, Matthew, who was in full energy at the moment, bowed to Firena, and continued:

"Well, then, I'll take my leave."

"Well, go ahead, but don't forget my words."

Looking at Matthew's distant back, Firena couldn't help but sigh in her heart, worthy of being the Kanban girl in the game. Compared to before, she thought that she couldn't beat Lancelot at all, but now she can be said to have changed dramatically.

It wasn't until Matthew's figure completely disappeared at the end of the corridor that Firena withdrew her gaze, then turned around and looked at the Yuanzang Mountain in the distance, which was still as gloomy as stagnant water, and said with a smile:

"I'm really looking forward to the battle between father and daughter, right, Lancelot."
