Chapter 16 Partners

With his hands in his pockets, Emiya Shirou's eyes seemed to be shining as if he were looking up at the sky.

For him once, there was only faith.

But faith alone is not enough, he also needs strength.

Hearing Emiya Shirou's response, whether it was Diona, Tiogne, who was watching the excitement on the side, or Ace, who was asking, stopped talking.

A group of five people walked quietly down the street.

Looking at the back of Emiya Shirou, Ace, who walked at the end, seemed to see her own shadow in him.

They're all people who carry something on their backs.

They all have their own goals to achieve.

"Faith?"

Ace silently repeated the word in her mind.

She kept asking herself in her heart if her faith was as firm as the person in front of her!

Tina and Tiogne, who were at the front of the group, led the way while observing the two behind them with their peripheral vision.

The reason why they invited Emiya Shirou to come with them today was not only interested in him, but also because Ace had questions for him.

The two of them also knew a little about Ace's experience.

So as long as they can help her, the two of them will be happy to do it.

It's just that the two of them didn't expect that the new members of their family clan didn't seem to be so simple.

This guy might be a problem kid too!

Yes! What a hassle!

...

The destination of Ace's trip is another family in Orali who has a blacksmith as a profession, called the Guberniu family.

Although this clan is not as large as the Hephaestus clan, it is indeed comparable in the performance of weapons.

And among the Loki clan, many elite-level weapons are made by the Guberniu clan, such as Ace's Sword of Despair, which is the proud work of the Guberniu clan.

And, of course, Tiona's 120 million Farly's big double-bladed Olga who was corrupted by monsters in the future.

Standing on the side of the Gubonniu clan, looking at Diona, Theogne, and Ace, who were communicating with the forger of the Gubonniu clan, Emiya Shirou, who was doing nothing on the side, chatted with Refia.

"I've heard that Refia is the sorcerer Rivelia values! You must be strong! ”

"Nope!"

Hearing Emiya's inquiry, Refia remembered the scene when she was unable to sing because she was afraid of monsters during the expedition, and she couldn't help but become depressed.

After telling Emiya Shirou about her deeds, Refia bowed her head and said, "I'm really bad! If Mr. Emiya had it, he would have been able to do better than me! ”

"Indeed!"

Emiya Shirou clasped his hands to his chest and nodded faintly. Then Refia in front of her visibly languished.

Seeing that the other party couldn't stand the teasing so much, Emiya Shirou hurriedly explained: "I'm joking! Don't take it seriously! ”

But no matter what he said, Refia looked like she was loveless.

If this kind of appearance is seen by Theona and the others for a while, she will definitely be hatted as a bully!

No, find a way to remedy it.

Looking at Refia, who was squatting on the ground with her eyes staring blankly at the ground, Emiya Shirou directly pulled her up.

"Speaking of which, I'm also LV.2 now, but I don't have a companion to explore the dungeon together, does Refia want to join me?"

"Huh? I... I... Is it? ”

At this time, Refia's face was full of shame, in addition to Emiya Shirou's invitation, it was more Emiya Shirou's right hand holding her arm.

In this world, for special reasons, elves only allow themselves to be touched by those they identify with. Otherwise, it will be repulsed.

Looking at Emiya Shirou's right hand, Refia couldn't help but think to herself in her heart, didn't she reject Mr. Emiya?

Looking at Refia, who was a little demented, Emiya Shirou stretched out his other hand and shook it in front of her, and the other side kept calling her.

"Refia, Refia, Refia!"

"Yes!"

Refia, who suddenly woke up, responded hurriedly.

"Well, do you want to agree to my invitation?"

"Yes!"

Alas? What the hell are you talking about?

Refiashan, who woke up suddenly, didn't figure out anything, so he agreed to Emiya Shirou's invitation, and the whole person was confused.

"Okay, in that case, I will go back today and look like I'm going to have to prepare well!"

No, no, no!

Don't!

Refia regretted it extremely at this time, but in the face of Emiya Shirou's smiling face, he couldn't say no.

"Yes!"

Ah, resigned to fate.

So be it.

Anyway, Mr. Emiya's strength is so strong, he shouldn't be holding him back.

Seeing that Refia agreed to her invitation, Emiya Shirou was still a little satisfied in his heart.

This is a magician.

As we all know, mages are the noblest profession, and a powerful mage can even change the tide of a campaign.

Although Refia is still very young, he is the heir of Oralie's strongest magician, Rivelia.

In terms of potential, she is definitely top-notch.

Even if she pulled her hips during the expedition, it was because the enemies she had to face had improved too much, and it was difficult for her to adapt.

If only in the middle layer, or even in the lower layer.

She's still a strategic-level weapon.

How to use her correctly depends on yourself.

Just as Emiya Shirou was thinking about tomorrow's arrangement, Ace walked out of it with Diona, and Diony.

"How's that!"

"Everything is going well, just need to maintain it here for a day, and you can come and get it tomorrow!"

Looking at the gradually dimming sky, Tione thought for a while and said: "There is also an expedition celebration banquet in the evening, it is a rich hostess, let's just go directly!" ”

"How about going to the bountiful hostess while strolling through the streets."

"Yes!"

In this regard, everyone nodded with satisfaction.

...

"I see, is Refia going to team up with Shirou to explore the dungeon tomorrow?"

Putting down the cup in her hand, Riveria looked at Refia beside her with concern.

This is the bountiful hostess, and it is Loki's favorite hotel. Whenever an expedition returns. The Loki clan will have a celebration feast here.

And this time was no exception.

At this time, the bountiful hostess was extremely lively, and the members of the Loki clan were drinking wine and eating meat, and loudly boasting about their exploits with their companions.

Everyone was happy and harmonious.

After three rounds of drinking, after a period of liveliness, the members of the family who were originally celebrating together gradually divided into several small groups, each telling their own thoughts.

And beside Refia, it was Riveria who sit.

"It's a good thing, although Shirou is only a member of the clan who has just joined the family, I can tell that he is a calm person. Although his previous decision to go deep into the seventeenth layer seemed dangerous, he himself had a great deal of certainty and was a good planner. ”

"With him, you might be able to learn something you wouldn't normally be able to access."

"Yes!"

Listening to Riveria's opinion, Refia couldn't help but look at Shirou Emiya, who was sitting at the other table, chatting with Ace and Tiona.

I always feel that this person is inexplicably reliable.

...

"Is this the legendary magic sword archer?"

"Magic Sword Marksman?"

Looking at the young waitress with blue-gray hair in front of him, Emiya Shirou looked at her with some confusion.

"This is the title everyone gave you!"

"It means that an archer who can shoot an attack comparable to a magic sword, how about it, it's suitable!"

Magic Sword Marksman? There's a kind of nuclear bomb sword fairy.,It's pretty good.。

"How so? Surprisingly good. ”

Emiya Shirou, who was quite satisfied with this title, looked at the gray-haired girl in front of him and asked with a smile, "May I ask who you are?" ”

"Sheel Floa, that's my name."

"Cier?"

Silently pondering the name, Emiya Shirou smiled: "What a nice name." ”
