Chapter 7: A Belated Crisis
Tosaka Residence, living room
The moonlight poured in through the window, reflecting the dark wood floor of the hall, illuminating the silhouette of two figures. Although it was two people, I always felt that something was missing.
“Golem?” On the laptop screen, Rin with her hair scattered had a shocked look on her face.
"Why did you mess with that?"
"I ...... I do not know...... It's just that she suddenly appeared on a road she didn't recognize......" Sakura lowered her head, looking like she had mistaken the baby.
"Alas...... It's all my ......" Rin stroked her forehead, very annoyed.
"Finally got a great guy......"
"The Four Princes, the Seven Deadly Sinners, and the Nineteen Guardians, how are you going to let us get through? Unless you can find him and get your hands on his relics~~~~~" Illya crouched on her back in her chair.
"It's not all coming...... Rin scratches her head.
"One is enough, and it's already here." Illya pouted.
"That'...... The ......" Sakura stumbled and opened her mouth.
"Can I help?"
"You're here to help~~~~~~" Illya scolded Sakura mercilessly.
"Rin, is it okay to let Saber come back?"
"No, Saber is the focus right now, and will be discovered as soon as he leaves. Especially those guys in Sophia, they take her very seriously~~~~"
"Judging from the current situation, Fuyuki has completely become a pool of muddy water, and the best way is to give up." Illya stared at Rin intensely.
"Give up Fuyuki?!" Rin understood what Illya meant, and the two of them wanted to give up the only remaining inheritance of Einzbelen, and the other wanted to give up all the family and the management of the spiritual land.
"Without the spiritual land and property of Tosaka, how can we survive?"
"With Tosaka's spiritual land and inheritance, we probably won't see the sun tomorrow, and no one knows how long your family's defensive technique will last. When they found Sakura, they had noticed it, and they hadn't moved us before, but they were just focused on the Great Grail~~~~~~~~~" Illya looked out the window worriedly.
"I'm against it, it would cost us our last chance." Rin shook her head.
"Then teach me your trick of pressing the bottom of the box~~~~~" Illya's eyes sparkled.
"............................................." Rin didn't speak, his fire rain belonged to mass destruction magic, an absolute nirvana, although it was broken by Illya, but it was easy to deal with other magicians.
"What? Reluctant? Illya smiled wickedly, pulling Sakura into the range of the screen.
"Okay.................. I'm not sure if you can use it, though, because that's ......."
"Ring, ring, ring, ~~~~~," Rin was halfway through speaking, and the phone in the living room rang suddenly.
"........................" Sakura and Illya looked at each other, and finally Sakura, the titular head of the house, picked up the phone.
"Teacher?" Sakura saw through the caller that the number belonged to Fujimura-sensei.
"Come outside."
"Huh?" Sakura is a little cloudy.
"I'll wait for you outside your house." Fujimura-sensei's voice was strange and cold.
"Wow~~~" Illya hurriedly ran to the second floor, looked out of the window, and saw Mr. Fujimura wearing the usual long-sleeved tunic and miniskirt, standing motionless outside the gate not far away.
"Oops! Forget about the big river! Illya woke up suddenly, and forgot about this amiable and affectionate person.
"Call me!" Illya ran down the stairs and snatched the phone.
"Toot ~ Beet ~ Beet ~ Toot ~ Toot" There was only a busy signal left in the phone.
"Damn!" Illya slammed the phone on the table.
"Sakura ......"
"What...... What the? Sakura looked at Illya with some hesitation.
"Great River...... Do you want to be saved? Illya's tone was serious and solemn.
"When...... Of course! Mr. Fujimura is a good person! Sakura, who had just reacted, grabbed Illya's hand.
"What if I was going to die......"
"Huh?" Sakura was stunned.
"I can't beat them, but I can rescue Fujimura-sensei, but I may not be able to escape......"
"Once I'm gone, they will kidnap other classmates and teachers in the future...... It's up to you......" Illya turned around and grabbed the gems and other battle materials, and walked towards the entrance with heavy steps.
"Xiaoya!"
“……………………………………”
"Why give up!"
"I'm tired...... Really tired, if he's no longer there...... Then I'll go to him. ”
Clutching the sachet full of ingredients, Illya pushed the door open and left.
"Xiao Ya.................." Sakura looked at Illya's desolate back, and felt bitter in her heart.
"Why ......"
Tosaka Residence, the entrance
Fujimura-sensei, with his head down, saw Illya walk out of the mansion, and then turned to leave. Illya was afraid that the other party would use magic to force Fujimura Sensei to move quickly and damage her body, so she didn't dare to move, so she could only slowly keep her distance and follow behind Fujimura Sensei.
(Who could it be...... Illya's mind raced, thinking about her opponent this time.
(The Church wouldn't use this kind of subterfuge, Satanism could, but could they take me so far with the golem...... )”
(Woods on the outskirts?) It's in line with the rules of magicians...... Illya realized that she might be in the middle of a place.
"Rustling ~~~~~" The sound of grass and trees came from all around.
".................." Illya clutched the sachet tightly and quietly pulled out a silver thread.
"Whoosh!" Suddenly, several branches swept towards the girl who had caused it.
“Elemente_der_Kreis!” (Ring of the Elements)
As soon as the girl raised her hand, the silver silk thread rolled into a ring in the air, protecting the girl in the center.
"Bang bang bang ~~~~Zi Zi Zi Zi ~~~" The writhing branches hit the silver light curtain, and they let out a mournful sound at the same time as they were dissolved.
"(I'm not the same either~~~~)" The corners of Illya's mouth rose slightly, this trick was once used by her to defend against Rin's big magic in the Holy Grail War, it was obviously a completely defensive magic, but now it has become slightly aggressive, and the revelation of the light curtain also comes from the person she admires.
(It's up to you to make any moves, it's up to you to get bigger or smaller, and my life isn't something anyone can take easily!) )”
"Whew!" Suddenly, a big tree crashed straight into it!
"~~~~~" Illya smiled slightly, connected the handprint, and the silver aperture instantly turned into a stork, and at the same time, her left hand patted her thigh, and the light of the magic circuit instantly lit up.
"Whoosh!" Illya avoided the crashing trees at great speed.
(Position-based defensive magic is the use of powerful attacks to drain the opponent's mana...... This guy ...... )”
The huge movement inertia caused by the dodge caused Illya to take more than ten steps back.
(Very purposeful, play cards quickly...... Professional! Illya basically determined the origin of the other party.
"Whoosh!" A branch swept in while Illya was still on her feet.
"Horn~" The magical girl snapped her fingers, and her right hand changed from a fist to a palm, directly facing the sweeping branches.
"Click!" The fiery sword with silver thread wrapped in gems at its core causes the demon to cut off the branches, completing his mission to protect his master.
(Plant family - Yumina...... Does the Holy Sword have anything to do with you? )”
(Could it be that you want to use the holy sword as a potted plant and see if you can grow another one?!) Illya frowned.
