049: Intelligence is meant to be betrayed

"Huh!? Mr. Arthur Doyle knows? ”

Emiya's mouth was open in disbelief, and his eyes were filled with surprise, astonishment, and an indescribable sadness.

Emiya Shirou has always believed that Bai Hua is the same as himself, a partner of justice.

No, maybe in his heart, Bai Hua is much nobler than himself, and will smile at others, heartfelt joy, a feeling that comes from the heart.

And he, unable to do this, his justice, and even the idea of helping others, is not from the heart, but more like being bound by something to carry it out.

His smile is fake.

His wishes are borrowed.

In addition, the act of helping others is based on the idea that 'only I am saved, it is too unfair', and the general mental hint of self-punishment.

Therefore, after he met Bai Hua, he had a longing and longed to become a person like Bai Hua, who could help others from the bottom of his heart.

It is also because of this that Bai Hua has become a teacher and friend in his heart.

However, Bai Hua's simple words just now brought the impact to Emiya Shirou, which was no different from subverting his outlook on life.

"Mr. Arthur Doyle, you know from the beginning that there are servants who are sucking the souls of ordinary people?"

Emiya Shirou's pupils dilated to the limit, and his mouth came out of a tone that bordered on questioning.

However, none of this has anything to do with Bai Hua.

In other words, Bai Hua couldn't see what Emiya Shirou's expression was trying to convey.

"Yes, if you know the time, I have noticed it from the day the servant opened the barrier." Bai Hua nodded solemnly in an analytical tone.

What does this mean?

It means that he ignores this evil behavior even when he knows that someone will be hurt or even lose his life because of it.

He had the ability to stop it, but he didn't take action.

In an instant, in Emiya Shirou's heart, one of the two "righteous partners" image gradually began to collapse.

"In this way, what is the difference between you and the perpetrator!? You, who are always helping others, heard the request and foresaw their end when they needed it most, but didn't lend a hand, what kind of hero are you? ”

Wrath!

Anger like never before!

This anger that almost burned his reason made Emiya Shirou lose his usual calmness and easy-goingness, and in the stunned eyes of everyone, he rushed to Bai Hua and scolded loudly like this.

No one would have thought that he, who usually looks like a good old man, would behave so aggressively.

It's like a lioness guarding her cubs.

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded.

It wasn't until two minutes later that there was a reaction.

"Shirou?"

Saber whispered to his master, hoping he would calm down.

"Wei... Emiya-san, we're here today, it seems to be... to ask for help. ”

Rin Tosaka cautiously, reminding him while signaling Emiya Shirou to relent.

"Humph!"

Archer looked away in disgust.

"Oh, my big brother's expression is so scary."

Although she said this, Illya stood firmly beside Bai Hua, and her eyes slowly became cold.

"That... The young man of the palace is just aware of it, is it so serious as you say? ”

Bai Hua said with some embarrassment.

"-Click."

Serra, who had just pushed the food cart to bring refreshments, was so surprised that she didn't even notice that a piece of pastry on the food cart had fallen to the ground.

Lijielit, who came with her, silently took out her axe and gun.

"I..."

Emiya Shirou took two steps back, only then did he realize what he had done, but at this point, he would not and could not back down.

Because once he retreats, along with the persistence in his own heart, it will also collapse.

Immediately after, he took a deep breath, as if he was ready to be enlightened, and stood in front of Bai Hua very firmly.

He wouldn't take even half a step back.

"Anyone can, but Mr. Arthur Doyle!"

Being watched by a gaze with various emotions, Emiya Shirou stared at Bai Hua and said this, he thought that only he and Bai Hua would understand, but in fact, only he alone understood.

This scene made Archer cover his face.

If he looked away because he was unhappy before, now Archer just can't bear to look at Emiya Shirou.

- Shame on you!

Bai Hua thought about it and felt that the other party had misunderstood something, after all, Emiya Shirou's attainments in magic really didn't dare to compliment, so he hurriedly explained.

"Regarding the enchantment of forced absorption of magic power, it is actually not as terrifying as you think, it is a slow, it can be said to be a gentle way to absorb, after all, the scope is so large, almost enveloping the entire city, it is a very gentle enchantment.

Even if it is carried out for another half a month, the person who is absorbed by the magic power will only have a cold and fever at most, and it will not cause much harm to the body. ”

"Huh!?"

"β€”alas!!"

Rin Tosaka and Shirou Emiya froze for a moment.

Even, Emiya Shirou's face instantly turned red, and he looked like he was eager to find a gap to get into.

Unprecedented anger, in this moment, dramatically transformed into unprecedented embarrassment.

Are we talking about the same thing?

"That, the one that envelops the city... Enchantment? Rin Tosaka hesitated.

"yes, what's wrong?"

Bai Hua tilted his head in confusion, and continued: "The other party's means of arranging the enchantment are very powerful, if you have that kind of technology, it is not difficult to hide it, but the other party doesn't seem to have this idea, all the magic power flows to the Liudong Temple, it should be Caster's servant." ”

β€œΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·β€

Compared to Bai Hua's indifference, the surprise on Rin Tosaka's face was as if he had just learned about it.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, Mr. Arthur Doyle, I'm really sorry I was talking to you so loudly just now!"

Emiya Shirou suddenly bent down and saluted very solemnly.

"It was I who unilaterally misinterpreted Mr. Arthur Doyle's meaning, and the enchantment I said should have been arranged by another servant, and the scope was only in our school."

For a moment, Bai Hua lost his voice, and after a long silence, he turned around and looked at Illya.

"Master, do I count this as providing information to the enemy for free?"

Bai Hua hid the expression under the helmet and suddenly became ugly.

Even if it is unintentional, such an act, in the army, is punishable by death as a rebellion.

As a former supreme commander, how could he make such a mistake?

"It should be... Forget it. ”

The smile on Illya's face also became reluctant, and immediately, she waved her hand carelessly.

"Well, it doesn't matter anyway, didn't the Assassin also say it, the other party has no intention of covering it up, and it will be found out sooner or later."

It's like excusing Bai Hua, and it's like comforting Bai Hua.

However, Rin Tosaka and them really don't know the news.

As a result, Rin Tosaka had a triumphant smile on her face.

"Then, the misunderstanding will be solved, I'll say it bluntly, Illyasfil, I want to borrow your servant, you don't need to fight, you just need to use the Assassin's perception ability to explore the base point of the enchantment."

"Hehe~"

In exchange, it was Illya's mocking sneer.
