Act 42: Happiness and Misfortune Everywhere (II)

The development of things is going according to the route prescribed by the world line of this world, and the possibility of being disturbed by the outside world is very low, so people's guessing behavior is actually meaningless.

So, why is there foreknowledge and divination?

In the final analysis, it is just a kind of extravagance, an idea of wanting to change the future.

It's okay to think of it as unrealistic.

But no one will say it, and they won't say it, because we all know that it is better to pin the only remaining hope on the 'future that may change' than to believe in the fact that life is prescribed.

Following Alice Phil and the others, Natsume looked at his palm, and a thick layer of cocoons appeared where he often held the hilt, and some yellowed skin looked very old.

Then, Natsume began to ask herself.

Where did you put your remaining hopes?

Is it Alice Phil? Or Saber? Or is it on Maiya Kuyu? Or is it the Holy Grail that makes people fight for their scalps?

It has always been believed that the Holy Grail can grant all wishes, but in reality, has anyone actually gotten the Holy Grail?

In the first three Holy Grail Wars, it seems that no one became the victor to get the Holy Grail.

In this way, the Heroic Spirits and Magicians who are fighting for the Holy Grail may have placed their 'wishes' on the Holy Grail that may grant their wishes.

This is indeed stupid enough.

Whether it's their own, so are they.

Walking forward, Natsume put his hand on the hat Sakura had just bought, and threw it over the brim, and Sakura's eyes, which had turned purple due to the marking bug, had a little light at the moment.

She stared at herself, not quite understanding why.

I don't know.

Rubbing it vigorously, Sakura's small body almost couldn't stand on its feet under the push of Natsume's hand.

"Don't use so much force! Sakura is just a little kid. What if it hurts? Tap! ”

Pushing herself away with some dissatisfaction, Alice Phil led Sakura to her side, so that Natsume couldn't get close to Sakura, as if she was guarding her precious child.

It seems that the actions of children must be done according to their ability.

Like Alice Phil, Saber agrees with her and thinks Natsu's actions are too reckless.

Sakura, who was caught in the middle, pulled Alice Phil's clothes with her hands.

"It's okay, that's fine."

"Really? There's really no way, now let's go eat something, does Sakura like cake? ”

"Yes."

Let's go.

Holding Sakura's hand. Alice Phil walked with her towards a coffee shop on the street ahead.

Saber walked last, and she slowed down to Natsume's side.

"Master, that little girl named Sakura, has a chilling magic fluctuation in her body."

"Well, that's why I brought her here."

In the past...... What happened to her?

Saber wanted to ask. But after hearing Alice Phil's laughter, he closed his mouth and caught up with Natsume.

The phone in my arms vibrate. Natsume immediately pressed the answer button.

"How?"

"Much better. There was no problem with the operation, and the following is information on the recent surveillance. ”

"Where are you now?"

"After leaving the hospital, I went straight to the motel I used to have."

Already discharged?

Natsume listened to Kuyu Maiya's explanation and said after a little thought

"Now that it's out, there should be no problem fighting."

"No problem."

"No need to force it."

"It's not reluctant, if you can do it, you can do it, and being stubborn will only cause you trouble."

Decisive answer.

This simple conversation made Natsume interested in Kuyu Maiya as a person.

Give everything for someone who has saved their own life. Is this action really worth it?

It is because of a person who has brought himself from the unfortunate past to the happy present that Maiya Kuyu is willing to do anything, not so much as persistence, but stubbornness.

Everyone's thinking is different. Natsume naturally couldn't understand it all.

The person of Kuyu Maiya may exist for 'him'.

Do you want to be happy?

If Natsume asked Kuyu Maiya like this, there was no need to think about it, Natsume would have already guessed the answer.

She would definitely reply, 'I'm happy now'.

Even if you kill someone, even if your hands are stained with blood, you are still happy.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the three people who had already walked into the store, and Natsume responded to Maiya Kuyu on the other end.

"I'll contact you later, send all those messages, I'll deal with this side first, and you'll be ready."

"I see, waiting for your contact."

After that, the other party can hang up the phone.

Natsume knows a little bit about the events that happened below.,Although I don't want to take a kick.,But since the plot has changed.,There's no way to continue to change it.。

According to the wanted warrant issued by the church, you can get a reward for killing Caster, and Natsume doesn't want to give this reward to anyone else.

It was originally obtained by Kenneth, and now, Natsume wants to snatch it.

Yes, just in case, in case Saber does something that interferes with his own plans.

If necessary, Natsume will definitely use the Command Spell to change Saber's actions and make him obey the arrangement.

Putting away the phone, Natsume knocked on the door of the café with his hand, and the trio in the neighborhood were attracted by the knocking sound.

"I'm leaving, Saber, you're with Ellie, and Sakura, too."

"Are you leaving again?"

Alice Phil looked at Natsume with some concern and walked over after bypassing Sakura.

Hold Natsume's hand with your hand, and pass each other's body temperature to each other along the palm.

Even though Natsume's palms were a little cold, Alice Phil didn't care.

"Please be careful, I'll rush over when you need me."

"Don't worry about that."

He touched Alice Phil's long, silky hair with his hand, and after glancing at Saber, Natsume walked away.

But.

Get nailed.

One hand grasped the hem of the trench coat tightly, and Sakura, who was holding the hat in her right hand, looked up from below.

"What's wrong?"

"You, are you leaving??"

"It's only temporary."

"Temporary?"

"It means that we will meet again, it's as simple as that."

Call.

With a relieved expression, Sakura let go and nodded obediently.

"I see, so Sakura, wait for you."

"Yes, wait for me with them."

This time, Natsume gently rubbed Sakura's hair, and she shook her petite body with a mumping sound, and at the same time, she also showed a childlike cute expression. (To be continued......)
