again and again–
Almost heavy steps, the collision of armor, and the clanging sound echoed in the corridors of Einzbern Castle.
The girl’s solemn appearance appeared in the darkness, and it was very rare that the silver-blue armor did not dissipate.
The atmosphere was a little depressing.
Emiya Kiritsugu was leaning against the door of the conference room, smoking a cigarette in dejection.Irisviel didn’t like the smell of cigarettes, and because of her, Kiritsugu hadn’t touched a cigarette for nearly nine years.
Only to pick it up again now.
The light from the gap in the door was so warm, yet so far away.
Emiya Kiritsugu glanced at Saber, who had rushed back, and lowered his head again.That somewhat sullen look made Saber’s questioning in his heart stagnate again.
The gray eyes and the emerald eyes looked at each other, and both of them were suppressed in their hearts.
Saber pushed open the door to the conference room, then slammed it shut.
The door was completely closed, cutting off the last light.Standing in the complete darkness, only the cigarette butts between his fingers still have a trace of light.Emiya Kiritsugu sighed deeply and turned to leave.
Jiuyu Maiya looked at the man’s dejected back, became dumb, and finally gave up the idea of catching up.Emiya Kiritsugu is no longer that Shura. As an auxiliary facility for the killing machine, she can no longer see the man of the past.
Destruction of the Holy Grail was just another task for her, but for the Einzbern couple, it meant putting out the spark of hope with her own hands.
···
Saber stepped into the conference room, and there was only Irisviel’s lonely figure beside the empty long table.Kuang San had already retired. According to her words, Sakura needed enough sleep.
Compared to Emiya Kiritsugu, Irisviel is more like her master.
That face that was so beautiful and neat that it looked like a doll, and those eyes that looked like rubies, were exactly the same as Einzbern’s ‘Winter Saint’ Justisa.
How could such a paranoid family give birth to such a gentle Irisviel, Saber can only blame it all on that cold man.
“Saber, you take Berserker very seriously.” Irisviel held Saber’s right hand holding the sword, and instantly realized what she said, if it was according to the legend.Lancelot and Arthur… are indeed in that state of crisis.
“Saber, I…”
But what she didn’t expect was Saber’s somewhat dazed expression. “Master Lancelot, have you always hated me?”
“The knight on the lake…how did he become a Berserker!?”
···
Saber looked at Irisviel as if asking herself. “Ellie… I really don’t understand people’s hearts?”
Irisviel didn’t know how to answer her, but looking at those clear eyes, she replied with a smile. “No, Saber is a very gentle girl.”
“Very gentle… girl…”
···
–
“Artoria, the one who can pull this sword out of the rock is the King of Great Britain. Please think carefully before pulling out the sword. Once you pull this sword out, you will no longer be human.”
“I understand, I wish to come here for the sword.”
The oath of the king cannot be broken. I have a mission that I have to complete. My wish has only one since the beginning. From the moment I draw my sword, this oath will never change.
···
Merlin’s words seemed to be close at hand, and the oath he once made was still resounding in his ears.
There was a long silence in the conference room.
Saber got up wearily and turned to leave. “Eli… get some rest early.”
The figure of Emiya Kiritsugu outside the door had long since disappeared, but it saved a lot of embarrassment.
It’s just Saber’s back, the solemn figure wrapped under the blue dress and silver armor, but in Aliceviel’s eyes, she looks like a little girl standing on the edge of a cliff.
“The King of Great Britain…?”
–
The night was silent, and the sky in Fuyuki was a little desolate.
It was only the second night of the Holy Grail War, but a lot of dark secrets were revealed, making almost every group of participants hesitate.
The A_venger and Saber groups both belong to the Einzbern camp.
The Assassin and Archer groups, who were supervisors but linked with the warring parties.
Crazy murderer Caster group.
The Rider group who wanted to get the Holy Grail to prove themselves, and the monarch-Lancer group that also came from the Clock Tower.
And… the Berserkers who just want revenge against the Tohsaka family and Saber without any worries.
The war has only just begun.
–
Saber saw such a strange dream again in her sleep.
The setting sun is dazzling, the sun is shining.
