Lying quietly on the gravel-covered ground, looking at the approaching Yanfeng Qili, Alice Field's heart was unusually calm at this time.

Maybe that's what it's like to be dead...

This shouldn't have been an established script, because Yan Fengqili's target was not her at all. This is all too clear to both Maiya and herself.

When Alice Phil uses her clairvoyance to see the tall man in a black monk's robe, full of intimidation, with short hair and a serious appearance that is exactly the same as the photos in Kiritsugu's collection. She knew in her heart who the intruder was this time.

And Maiya confirmed her guess.

The woman who was as expressionless as ice at all times, and who could not peep into all emotions, her face was a mixture of anxiety and anger. What you can see there is a sense of crisis that is completely different from horror.

What she was afraid of should not be the character of Qili, but the state of affairs in which Qili appeared here at this time.

She is also in love with Emiya Kiritsugu......

Alice Phil, who is delicate in her heart, instantly understood the situation at this time, and even understood the heart of the woman Maiya Kuyu.

She suddenly finds out why she is hiding from Maiya...... Not to be afraid of her, but to know her heart.

Afraid of the fact that "there is not only one woman who cares about the heir of Emiya".

However, Alice Phil smiled lightly, and gradually let go of the mustard in her heart, she knew that this woman was a person who could give everything for Kiritsugu like herself, and as long as Kiritsugu needed it, then she would not have any complaints. Although she never really understood Kiritsugu's ideals, Alice Fell unwaveringly supported her husband. A true desire for world peace is just pretty words, no matter how kind Alice Fell is. She just hopes to be able to walk this last leg of the journey hand in hand with her husband.

For the android himself... Enough is enough.

So he no longer craved... I just want to protect the present.

So when she found out that this person who posed a great threat to Kiritsu appeared, Alice Phil did not hesitate to change her original route.

This man must not be allowed to ruin Kiritsugu's plans.

This is the belief that Alice Phil has come forward this time, even if it is at the cost of losing her life.

As a substitute for the church, the opponent is too strong.

Einzbelen's magic is not suitable for combat, even when bathed in the light of the Third Law. But in order to delay the footsteps of Yanfeng Qili, Alice Phil and Maiya have done their best. Although it caused a lot of trouble to the other party, it was not the opponent of the other party after all.

After a fierce battle, Alice Phil fell to the ground weakly due to the backlash of her magic. Maiya was lying on the grass not far away, and even though she struggled desperately to get up, she had just broken a few ribs due to Qili's attack, which made her more than she could strength.

Looking at the approaching Yan Feng Qili, Alice Phil smelled the breath of death.

But Alice Phil doesn't want to die, there is always too much attachment left in this world. Perhaps because of his identity as an android, most of his short life has been spent alone in a dark castle. But even so, there is still light in Alice Field's world, which is insignificant but enough for a woman in the dark.

Illya, who is alone in the castle waiting for her return, and Kiritsugu, who needs her own encouragement to move forward, are their own lights. Alice Phil couldn't imagine how they would move forward without their mother and wife......

So anyway... It can't end here.

At least... You can't just fall like this until you get the Holy Grail. Still want to... can accompany him silently on a journey again, and again... Give him more encouragement.

So... Please, Saber!

Unable to support her increasingly heavy eyelids any longer, Alice Phil closed her eyes and was in the dark......

...................................

"Alice!"

Artoria, who rushed to the scene, spotted Alice Phil lying on the ground at a glance, and went straight to Alice's side, ignoring the black shadow that flashed into the forest.

That wasn't worth Artoria's attention, because she didn't have the strength to threaten herself, and even if she did stand in a high position as a human being, she was still vulnerable to the Heroic Spirit.

And... We'll see you again eventually.

Artoria knew the vanished figure.

Archer seemed interested in him, and Artoria was vaguely aware of Archer's intentions. This restless king is not destined to be bound by a rigid master, so there will be a time to meet again, and then Alice's hurt will be brought back together.

And it didn't hurt too badly...

After examining Alice Phil's injuries, Artoria breathed a sigh of relief. Slowly crouching down, Artoria stared silently at the unusually beautiful silver-haired woman in front of her. The puppet-like overly delicate face gives people a sense of unreality, a dreamy feeling, because there is no such beauty in the world.

Artoria is very fond of women like Alice, not only are the two very compatible in personality, but this woman is always gentle and understanding and supportive of her actions. So when she proposed to become the acting master, she would gladly accept it.

And this girl with an elegant temperament is too similar to Gnieville, the same tragic fate but optimistic forward, the same no matter how sad she is, she shows people with a smile. It's a heartbreaking tenderness, and it's a woman to cherish.

So from the bottom of her heart, Artoria wanted to protect this woman.

But even if Artoria didn't want to know about the filthy things in Ainz Belen, she also knew too much in the silence along the way. As a king, she knows all too well the dark side of the inheritance process of a large family, and the aristocracy will do whatever it takes to achieve their own ends, which works equally well in the mundane and dark worlds.

And Alice herself does not have much rejection of this fate, no! It should be said that it is impossible to reject it. In order to support Kiritsugu's dream, she has no choice but to throw herself into the swamp of fate, which is beyond the meaning of her own existence.

Therefore, it is difficult for Artoria to do anything, but to watch silently like a bystander, and let the predetermined fate continue to play out according to the script.

But is it possible?

From the moment King Arthur was no longer that King Arthur, from the moment when Artoria was no longer that Artoria. There is no established future, and the script has long been different......

He gently placed his hands on Alice Phil's abdomen, trying to wake the other up. It's just strange that when Artoria came into contact with Alice Phil, she felt her magic slowly passing, as if something familiar had awakened.

And Alice Phil also came to her senses at this time, looking at Artoria with an expression of urgent concern in front of her, she couldn't help it, Alice Phil stretched out her hand and stroked Artoria's cheek, her heart was full of warmth and sweetness. This is a feeling that Kiritsugu can't give himself, and as a woman, Alice Phil still longs for a knight who guards her like in a fairy tale.

"I'm sorry... Ellie, came a little late. She didn't notice Alice's feelings, but that gentle gesture did make Artoria feel a lot of favor. Looking at the slightly weak girl, Artoria said apologetically.

"Uh-huh..."

Shook his head gently.

"Saber came at the right time, as long as Saber is around, I feel very relieved..."

Yes, as if as long as this petite woman is by her side, there is nothing to worry about. This is something that no one can give, peace of mind from the heart.

"Etude ......."

"By the way, Miss Maiya?" suddenly thought of something, and Alice Fell asked eagerly.

"She's okay, is your bleeding okay compared to this?" Artoria asked with some concern, glancing at Alice Phil's abdomen, which was already all red.

"Don't worry, no problem. Artoria said gratefully. "Thanks to Saber, I wouldn't be okay so quickly if it weren't for you. As he spoke, he lifted his belly to reveal smooth skin, and although it was still covered with sticky blood, there was no sign of a stab on the smooth skin.

Artoria was a little surprised, she was not good at treating magic, and Alice Fell was already unconscious at that time, and it was impossible to treat herself by herself, which was a bit unreasonable to look at.

Remembering the familiar feeling when she met Alice Phil just now, Artoria took a deep look at Alice Phil and asked, "Ellie, are you and Kiritsugu hiding something from me?"

".................." looked at Artoria's inquiring eyes, and Alice Fell silent.

Indeed, the moment Artoria came into contact with her, the silent Avalon (the ideal place away from the hustle and bustle) immediately woke up after feeling the magic of her master, and only healed the wearer Alice Fell in an instant.

This was the first meeting between the Lost Sheath and its owner after 1,500 years. The passage of time did not make the two sides strange, and the joy of meeting again was wonderfully interpreted in the brilliance of the scabbard.

Avalon, King Arthur's most powerful Phantasm, will heal from any injuries and even the aging process will stop. If the girl calls out her true name, not only will any injuries be healed instantly, but the barrier that is the strongest guardian will also be unfolded. Being able to defend against all physical attacks, even the five major magics, is the ultimate mystery of King Arthur.
