Chapter VI, Domicile Matters
So, what are you going to do now? Looking for a place to rent? At this point in time? 】
The girl looked at the dark sky, and when she left the Tosaka family's house, she took a special look, and the time was two o'clock in the morning. Even if you want to rent an apartment, you can do it, right? If you stay in a hotel, you don't have money or ID
"Oops...... Without considering cheating with ability, is the only option now to sleep on the streets?! Crossing the first day to encounter this kind of big crisis?! ”
[Hah! It's not because you refuse to obey Rin Tosaka, if you are at ease as her Servant, there is a bungalow to live in~]
The crimson longsword hummed and said in a mocking tone, and the mist in the crimson crystal sword body also matched its slow flow of mood
It's a strange sword, not that it can speak, although it's also strange. For swords, either bronze or steel, no matter how bad it is, it is also a carved bluestone sword body. In short, it is emphasizing the "hardness" of the sword body
The crimson longsword is different, the sword body is crystal clear, like a crystal gem diamond, and the crystal body of the sword makes people worry about whether it will shatter in the face of confrontation
The interior appears to be hollow, with a crimson mist in it
It shows an unusually gorgeous beauty in the light of the lights
It's a sword that's more like an ornament than a weapon
However, if you consider that it is a "divine sword", it is not so strange
After all, it was a creation of God
[Why don't you go to the protagonist Emiya Shirou's house to live? ] 】
Crimson Longsword suggested
[If it's the kind-hearted and stupid protagonist in the original book, maybe it will really give you a place to live! ] And the Einomiya Mansion is also quite good. 】
"Meaningless stupid words don't need to be said again."
Without hesitation, the girl rejected the proposal
Originally, leaving Rin Tosaka's side was to consider that as the second heroine, she would involve herself in the battlefield. If you go to the protagonist who will definitely join the battlefield for help now, what is the point of what you have done before?
Never take the initiative to join this group fight, this is the first and most important thing
[Then do you have any good places to go?] 】
"What a place......"
The girl looked down in thought. There really isn't much information about this town from the game, and there are only a few locations that you know. Einzberen Castle in the forest area on the outskirts of the city is a good choice if you can.
But now it is occupied by the strongest master of this war, Ilya von Einzberen, who used to seek death before she was defeated. In addition, there are Liudong Temple, Xindu Church, Tong House, Tosaka House, and room
Tong Mansion these places. It is a pity that all these places have enemies, people, occupations, and territories.
"Ahhh......h If only there was a vacant room where no one lives...... By the way, I remember mentioning in the original book that there was an incident where the whole family was killed before the beginning of the story, right? ”
["Ahh In the morning, there was a commotion over there in Ni-chome, you know? It's right at the intersection where I and Emiya separate."
"Intersection?"
Speaking of the intersection in the morning, it seems that a few patrol cars were parked and in a commotion
"It looks like there's a murder. Although the details are not clear, it seems that only children are saved for a family of four. Both parents and sister were assassinated, but the murder weapon was not a kitchen knife or a short knife, but a long knife, which is unusual" "Is this what you are talking about? 】
"Wow! What are you?! Is cross talk parody? Speaking of which, isn't that the original text of the game? Have you written it all down?! ”
The vivid performance of the crimson sword startled the girl, and even the intonation of the voices of the two people was imitated exactly the same
[Well, I've played this game before.] 】
"Have you ever played with it?!"
Playing Galgame with a sword in front of the computer is really a surreal picture!
[Anyway, if it's this family, there is a child who survives, do you want to live?] It's not very troublesome, and children are easy to deceive. 】
The girl thought about it for a while, but gave up
"Forget it, in this case, the child is estimated to be adopted by relatives, and the house will also belong to relatives, which is not suitable for living. I need the kind of ...... that will never be possible Yes...... By the way, I know there's a good place. ”
☆
"Bazet Fraga Makeremis......"
The girl stared at the corpse that had fallen to the ground next to the sofa and slowly spat out the name
Servant· Lancer's former Master arrived in Fuyuki City eight days before the start of the Holy Grail War and lived in the Twin Pavilions in Fukayama Town, known as the "Ghost Western-style Building". While ordering Lancer to conduct a reconnaissance activity, he was attacked by Yanfeng Qili, cutting off his left wrist engraved with the spell and seizing the spell
As for the cause of death......
His gaze turned to the large pool of blood around the severed arm
I guess I lost too much blood
The girl judged with her eyes open to the dead fish
This is a man-made beauty in a brown-red suit with short burgundy hair
In the original book, because of her death, the plot of "Fate/hollowataraxia" was triggered half a year later
But that's not a girl's concern. The girl chose to come to this place because it was an abandoned bungalow that no one lived in, and this was originally a location that the Magic Association had investigated and thought was suitable as a base and told Bazet
[Well, it's indeed a good place, and it's perfectly arranged for the magic position of this world.] The alarm enchantment was not damaged either, it seems that Yan Feng Qili did not destroy this place, but just cut off her arm and took the order spell and left. 】
Crimson Longsword commented
And the girl has a completely different opinion
"Although it was cleaned, it was obviously not cleaned carefully, and there was dust everywhere. The furniture is very damaged, and even worse, there is no water or electricity supply here! And dead one person here! I really wouldn't want to come here if I didn't have nowhere to go. ”
Since it is an abandoned bungalow, there is no way that there will be water and electricity supply, right?
[It's good to have a place to live, how much more do you want to ask for?] In fact, according to "Fate/Zero", you can also go to the hiding place of Ryunosuke Yusheng to live~]
"Isn't that a sewer?"
Faintly spitting, the girl threw the crimson sword to the ground casually, squatting down and groping around with her free hands on Bazette's corpse
Now that it's dead, leave me with your wallet, treasure, or something, and I'll use it well!
【System Prompt】
[You examined the corpse, you received a wallet from Bazette Fraga Macremis, and you received the title "Captain Touching Gold."] You receive the achievement "Don't Spare Even the Dead". 】
"It's noisy! She's dead anyway! Just give me something! ”
Ignoring the crimson sword's wreck, he said so as he pulled out a pair of earrings made of stone from Bazette's pocket. This is supposed to be a holy relic used to summon Heroic Soul Ku Chulin, maybe there is a place where it can be used
[Wow! Those who just said that they have "faith" have already begun to steal from the dead. This Excalibur has never seen such a brazen person! 】
The crimson longsword screamed on the ground
It's annoying
"By 'faith' I mean 'don't have the power to mess around'! I didn't say anything else, I didn't say I'm a good person......"
Anyway, it's still there......
There weren't many things in the wallet, except for 15,000 yen in cash, just a credit card and a driver's license. Fifteen thousand yen may seem like a lot, but this is the yen, according to the age of Fate...... Around 2000
Bar...... At that time, the exchange rate of the yen against the yuan was about 6 to 7, and 15,000 yen was just over 1,000 yuan. That's probably all Bazet's possessions. I remember that she was not rich in the first place
But if it's 15,000 yen......
Other words......
You can go to the hotel!
[However, there is no ID card.] 】
The crimson sword knocked the girl to the ground with a word, and she could only resign herself to living here
Looking around, there was nothing special other than a straight leg leaning against the couch
Open the lid of the canister
Knock and roll out a ball
The size of the shot put thrown in track and field competitions. The weight is about the same. It looked like it could hold up to five, but now there are only three inside
The Noble Phantasm "Fragarach", in this story, is strangely named after the mushroom, and the style is also called "Slashing Sword of War" or "Backlight Sword"
The magic sword that has been passed down from the gods to the modern day by the Fraga family is a very small number of "treasures in existence". However, it should not be the secret treasure of the Danu Protoss, but a replica made by Bazet with his unique secret technique. The original magic sword could be used an infinite number of times, but these orbs were just disposable products that would become ineffective after use
Although it is a fake, it is still a powerful item that can distort cause and effect
Awakens when the opponent unleashes an ace. When activated, it will always hit before the opponent. The principle is to rewrite one's own attack as the "earlier attack" by distorting cause and effect, that is, replacing the order of attack with a conceptual curse. Since the first defeated side has no chance to counterattack, this sword is able to cancel any attack
"Well, the Starter Pack is complete."
The girl retracted the ball into the barrel and closed the lid again
With this item, the survival rate in this Holy Grail War will be much higher, and the money saved will be enough to live for a while. Then, as long as Rin Tosaka uses up the spell three times, she can leave Fuyuki City and find a place to live, otherwise if she leaves now, once Rin Tosaka uses the spell to summon her, she will have to teleport back to Fuyuki City in an instant, and the road she walked is all in vain!
The girl sat on the sofa and thought about her future life
A person's life is very simple, making money, eating, sleeping, and entertaining, there are only these four items
For a girl who has experienced the end of the world and has had enough of being lonely for a year, it is enough to be able to live in a place where there are people. As for whether you are tired or not...... Isn't that how everyone comes along?
As for the Holy Grail War...... Who cares if he dies!
With all the preparations that can be made, the next thing is to quietly wait for Rin Tosaka to use the spell
Judging from her character in the original book, even if she persuaded her to hide before, she wouldn't listen, and it was almost inevitable to use the spell
The only question is, when will she use it?
The girl quietly pondered the plot of the original book
In the original book, Rin Tosaka's first encounter with a crisis was when he was attacked by Lancer while the school was investigating the Blood Enchantment. If the plot continues to go in this direction, she will inevitably use the Spell for the first time against Lancer
The girl frowned
But if you're facing Lancer, the backlightsaber is very limited
The backlight sword Flagalac is a magic sword that can never be broken
But the one who can compete with the backlightsaber is the Gáe· Bolg
Gáe· Bolang also happens to be the inevitable shot of distorting cause and effect, and the only consequence of the two meeting is
Two defeats, both injuries.
The girl's brow furrowed even deeper
So can't you use a backlightsaber against Lancer?
This is still in the case of Rin Tosaka following the original book, if she doesn't follow the original book, the first person she encounters is Berserker, and the backlight saber can be described as a complete waste
The backlightsaber must be activated by the opponent's "trump card"
For magicians, the Servant is already a strong magician, but what makes them the strongest is that they must have a powerful "trump card"
It does not mean "Noble Phantasms", "Noble Phantasms" are just their armament
"Ace" refers to the liberation of "Treasure's true name to show the true power of Treasure", that is, things like special moves
For Berserker, the concept of "trump card" is not used, only the constant draw of A
In other words, the backlightsaber was of no use to the Berserker at all
That is, it is necessary to find a new way to fight in addition to the backlightsaber
Projection......
The girl closed her eyes and turned her consciousness to the inner realm, where there were all the treasure design drawings of Heroic Spirit Emiya Shirou, enough to make the girl faint.
Heroic Spirit, a hero of the past
Myths, legends, fables, history, whether true or not, are active in legends, and if they become a real "superman", they are called heroes
The hero, who has become eternal in people's legends, is separated from the scope of human beings after death and elevated to another existence. Detached from the timeline, they will be called in all times, both past and future.
Therefore, all of the blueprints owned by Heroic Emiya Shirou were understood by him after seeing the original when he was summoned to ancient times. He is worthy of being called the king of copycats and the man who is a wholesaler of piracy
All Phantasms are classified in the form of a pyramid according to their performance, with the top EX rank followed by A, B, C, D, and the lowest E
Since even the same level of Noble Phantasms has strong and weak points, according to their respective levels, you can add "+" to distinguish the strength and weakness. "+" also refers to the ability to burst out instantly after liberating the real name, that is, "the regular state is A-grade, but it can burst out X times the power in an instant".
For example, Excalibur (Sword of Oath of Victory) is rated A++, which is usually A-rank but can burst three times as much power as A-rank, and Bellerophon (Reins of Riding Young) is A+, which can burst twice as much power as A-rank
However, this level arrangement is not applicable to EX-level treasures, and EX level itself means beyond the range of level display
"EX" means "Extra". Even if there is a difference between strength and weakness, there is no way to calculate how strong it is
In addition, the power of the Noble Phantasm varies depending on how it is used
This is represented by Gáe· Bolg (Piercing Death Lance), if it is used as a normal gun, the power is only B-level, but as a throwing gun, it can have B+, that is, twice the power
Wait a minute...... EX level?
Something strange has been found in the EX-level Noble Phantasm
"This is ...... EA (obedient sword)? Is this Laevatain? …… Could this be Gungnir? Then this must be Brionac, right?! Just kidding...... Doesn't it mean that you can't project a treasure of this level? BUG, this must be BUG......"
The girl was slightly startled, the original author Mushroom clearly said that Archer's projection could not project a god-made weapon, but this pile of artifact design drawings ......
Isn't it something you can see but can't eat......
Considering that the protagonist in the original book did project a god-made weapon, although it was based on the premise of self-destruction......
These things should all be projectable
As for the author's setting...... It's not the first time that the mushroom has smoked itself, so it's good to ignore it. Besides, just because the original book can't be projected doesn't mean I can't project it
Anyway, I'm not really Emiya Shirou
Such a strange thought was spinning in my head
Having said all that, so ...... Why don't you try projection?
After thinking about it for a while, the girl gave up on the idea
As soon as you enter the crossing, you will die miserably if you want to enlarge the move
But I'm afraid it's not enough to rely on these alone, even in the original book, red A can't be said to be the strongest, not to mention that although the current self has crossed into red A, it is not the original red A
There must be a considerable degree of difference in the understanding of projection
"One more ......"
He muttered unconsciously
Also needs an ace that can be used......
The girl turned her gaze to the crimson sword that she had casually thrown on the ground
As a divine sword, this thing that crossed over with itself was the first to be believed
"Hey, do you have an old man in there?"
[Huh? 】
"I'm asking if you have an old man in there?"
The girl repeated it again
As a traverser, can you live without a little powerful plug-in? There is an old grandfather in Xiao Yan's ring, an old grandfather in Lin Dong's ring, and an old grandfather in Lin Lei's ring...... Ahem, anyway, there are many people who have an old grandfather in their rings, no wonder the diamond ring is so expensive to buy, it turns out that everyone is looking for an old man. (Distance)
【Wooden. 】
"Then you're useless."
[Why?! This divine sword is also a divine sword! Excalibur! How many people in the world can get Excalibur? Didn't you? Didn't you? You are still not satisfied with getting this super~hanging sword?! 】
"Ah no, I don't think the sword called the Traveler's Sword of Salvation is of much use. ”
[That's what they said!] This divine sword is not called the "Traveler's Salvation Sword"! Besides, you, a person who has no name, are not qualified to say this divine sword! 】
Yes...... By the way, my personal noun has always been "girl" since just now......
The girl froze for a moment, noticing her abnormality for the first time
It's not that you forgot your name, it's like you didn't have a name in the first place
[That's because you've been stripped of your name, and this is being stripped away by the gods as a price to save you.] 】
For example, it's like writing the name of the protagonist in an article, such as: "Wang Moumou, eating." If the author is not satisfied, he may cross out the name, so the sentence becomes "XXX, eating." ”
It's forgetting the name. I don't remember, but there are traces
But what if the author didn't write a name in the first place?
"I'm eating."
This is the deprivation of names. It didn't exist in the first place. Erase the traces from time, and there will be nothing incomplete
No headache sensation
There are no uncomfortable feelings
There is no feeling that I can't remember
Because it didn't exist in the first place
When the girl was confused, the crimson long sword suddenly interjected:
[By the way, motherhood is not a price, just by the way. 】
By the way, your sister ahhh Is there such a thing as this?!!!
The face twitched constantly, and the inexplicable philosophical aura just now was washed away all of a sudden!!
Well......
As if she had no way to hold a crimson sword, the girl lay weakly on the sofa
Are you too tired? I feel a little sleepy......
The girl covered her forehead and asked a little tiredly:
"And what about your name?"
【Wooden. 】
"Hah...... Having said all this, you don't have a name after a long time, do you? ”
"Of course! Because as soon as this divine sword was forged, it was thrown to you this dead house! If you understand, go and do something big, cut down a few famous heroes, and make this Excalibur have a dazzling name! 】
Crimson Longsword lay on the floor in displeasure and screamed
Not...... I really want to sleep......
“…… The trouble is dead, the name or something, you can call it the Traveler Salvation Sword. ”
[Haha! Although this Excalibur knows that you did it on purpose, it's a pity. But it's a pity! The so-called "name" represents the "history" of a thing, and the "experience" of the thing itself is its name. If this divine sword falls
When he takes it to kill an evil dragon in the hands of a dragon slayer, this divine sword may be called "Dragon Slaying Sword". Do you understand? The sword is in the name of "battle record"! Now he has no record of war.、This god who hasn't even been on the battlefield.
The sword is useless based on your nonsense, and it can't be called a "name" at all! 】
[Listen up! You may not think much of the fact that names are especially sacred, but you should understand the importance of names just because they save you, right? 】
Hearing the crimson sword say this, the girl was slightly interested:
"The importance of a name? What happens if I am deprived of my name? ”
[Strictly speaking, it is not deprivation, it is exchange. Trade your name for a chance to live. As for what will happen, well, it has no effect on a mortal like you, and to be honest, your name is worthless, just to symbolically take away something for the sake of appearance. Because mortals have nothing to care about God. 】
"Really? Then why did they save me? Wouldn't it be better to leave me alone? ”
[That being said, but don't worry too much, you're just lucky.] These gods and horses will be like this when their brains are pumped, and they will get used to it after living too long and smoking. There's no particular reason for that, you're just getting a divine grace. It's like when you're dying of thirst, a torrential rain falls to moisten your throat, and when you're dying of hunger, a bird falls down to fill your stomach. You're just lucky. 】
"Is that so......"
Tiredness came like a tidal wave
The girl pressed her forehead and said reluctantly:
"To be honest, I thought I was the illegitimate child of some god and demon—"
[Don't dream, dead house!!] 】
Well, anyway, the girl has never given up on this idea of secondary two
[Anyway, you think of a name first!] Anyway, you need a name right now, right? 】
The eyelids are so heavy, and the brain feels groggy
Strange, is it so tired?
Because the year-long psychological burden has finally been let go?
“…… I'm so tired, you want one, don't listen to it too badly. ”
[Hehe, don't worry! How about shiki? That's the standard main character name! In the world of the moon, there are three people named Shiki, the protagonist of "The Realm of the Void", Shiki (Shiki), and Shiki (Shiki), the protagonist of "Tsukihime". You see, it's either the protagonist or the villain, Bunker, right? 】
“shiki……? Yes......"
The girl was so tired that she couldn't open her eyes and couldn't think about anything more
The crimson longsword was still chattering:
[What about the writing?] The pronunciation of shiki alone is not a name! Do you want a ritual? Or is it knowledge? Or is it an official position (post)? Or is it a textile (weaving)? Or do you dislike words?
What about the purple clouds (purple qi) in the sky? What is the period of human death (death)? Maybe it's the four seasons (four seasons) of spring, summer, autumn and winter? What about the four types of jade (four instruments) of Guizhang Bicong? 】
The girl's inaudible voice came:
"Shiki (weaving) is good......"
[Huh? What? What did you say? I heard it, but I don't know how to write it if you don't make it clear! It's all pronounced the same. That's not a name, it really can't. The name must be pronounced and written.
"Spinning...... Weaving ......"
Inaudible, almost murmuring
[Hah! Received it definitely. So be it. Your name is "weaving"! 】
After waiting for a while, the girl did not respond to its words
[Hey! Feed! Weave? Are you asleep? 】
In the abandoned room, only its voice still echoed
The girl lay on her back on the couch, her long silver hair scattered to the ground
The crimson longsword was silent for a while, and did not speak again
[Good night, weaving. 】
There was no sound in the room
P.s: Done, 7000 words. Well, the big chapter.
P.s2: Speaking of the strange style of mushroom naming, it is that every famous treasure must be called a handsome Japanese name. EX curry sticks can't be called broken steel to be called oath victory, dog guns are not called Gayaberg are called piercing death thorns, EA is not called heaven and earth, you have to be called heaven and earth to blame you, Gungnir is called the Great God Declaration, Brionac is called Bombardment Five Stars. In short, how to name a fashionable mushroom. When you think about it, these names are strange indeed. However, this is not as good as the naming style of Yuichiro Toide, the author of "Fate/Apocrypha", what a sun wheel, turning into armor (kavacha&kundala) Brahmastra, rebelling against Duanli's father (ClarentBloodArthur) Hey! It can't be a name at all, right?! It's all one sentence! And all of them have nothing to do with the original name in the parentheses at the back! Anyway, what's the point of translating the original name in parentheses like this?! Is it just to be handsome?!
Appendix:
[Ah...... Forgot to ask her to move Bazette's body out and bury it before going to bed. 】
[Forget it, you are in the same room with the dead or something...... It's none of my business anyway, 233]
