Shinji Matou's Holy Grail War(4/6)
"Sakura, can you still stand up?"
"Brother... I'm sorry..."
"Stand up, support Shirou, call Rider back, let's retreat." Shenji quickly gave the order, "Caster, go repair the car and leave it to me."
After saying that, a golden long bow and black arrows appeared in his hand.
"We're leaving." He said loudly, "Let's put a truce on the war. We all need to take a break to avoid being taken advantage of."
"What makes you think we will let you go?" Illya asked with a sneer.
"Honestly, I can probably shoot one arrow with the remaining strength." Shen Er also sneered back, "So, I can only kill one person, either the red guy or you - you are going to help me decide
Determined?"
Illya stared at the black arrow exuding cursed power, and then at Shinji, whose smile was without any warmth. After a few seconds, he finally nodded.
"How about a day off?"
Shenji didn't answer. He kept his bow gesture and slowly backed away until he got into the car.
Fortunately, although he comes from ancient Greece, Rider is indeed a "knight" and is very good at driving.
[It was indeed a wise decision to teach her to drive a car]
Shinji thought so and fell into Caster's arms.
As for the golden bow and black arrow, as early as the moment he retreated into the car, they could no longer maintain their existence and disappeared without a trace.
The car roared across the land, rushing into the pre-dawn night at an even faster speed than before.
The android master and servant and the android heroic spirit also slowly retreated into the forest, joined their companions hiding in the dark, and returned to the stronghold.
From beginning to end, no one said a word to the red shooter in the woods.

"I seem to be in coma a lot in the past few days." Shenji opened his eyes, and the first thing he said was to laugh at himself, "If this continues, I'm afraid I'll have to fall asleep forever next time."
"Don't say such unlucky words." The red-haired friend raised his hand in displeasure and wanted to punch him on the shoulder as usual, but hesitated and finally took it back, "How are you doing?
Is there anything uncomfortable?"
"This question is too difficult to answer." Shenji sat up with a wry smile, "If you ask me 'Where are I comfortable', it might be easier to list some - in fact, I feel uncomfortable everywhere. It would be best if I could sleep for a few more days.
How many nights."
"But we all know that's impossible." Seeing that he had regained some of his excitement, Shirou's expression became much more relaxed, "Sakura went to cook. Today's lunch is beef stew and cabbage soup. Even if you
If you want to rest, you should also have a good meal."
Shinji looked at Shirou's face and frowned slightly.
"How is beerker's condition? I remember she can be resurrected."
"The time hasn't come yet." Shirou's smile stiffened for a moment, but soon relaxed a lot, "It will be about eleven o'clock, there is still about half an hour."
"When the time is up, will she be resurrected automatically?"
Shirou closed his eyes and pondered for a moment - he was getting information about the heroic spirit from the command spell.
"It seems... I have to consume the command spells and summon them again." As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and there were still three command spells on his right arm. "You see, they won't be consumed until they are summoned again.
"
[As expected of the "protagonist", this "resurrection" ability is really incredible! They are also "protagonists". The heroic spirit incarnated by "Emiya Shirou" and the heroic spirit incarnated by "Takamachi Nanoha" are not at the same level at all.
Woolen cloth】
Thinking of this, he was suddenly startled.
All the heroic spirits that "really existed" in history will mostly appear in their most powerful form when summoned. For example, the heroic spirit Shirou Emiya appeared at his peak in his early twenties. Medusa, the beauty
Dia also appears in her youthful appearance.
But why do Nanoha and Fit, the lily couple, appear in the form of nine-year-old girls?
No matter from which angle you think about it, they are much stronger at the age of eighteen than they were at the age of nine...
"The magic power is not enough." The girl who was summoned again during lunch answered simply and clearly.
Not enough magic power? Shenji was dumbfounded, and then couldn't help laughing.
Yes, why did he forget this reason?
As a magician, Shirou's talent is not outstanding. He is just about the same as an ordinary magician - maybe more outstanding, but very limited. This level of magic is naturally more than enough to support ordinary heroic spirits.
But it is obviously not enough for a mythical powerhouse like Takamachi Nanoha to show a perfect posture.
A heroic spirit like her must have a master whose magic power is so powerful that it can make an ordinary magician cry, in order to fully utilize her full strength, right?
For example, Tohsaka Rin; for example, Illyasviel.
For example, Sakura.
Thinking of this, a playful smile appeared on Shen Er's face.
A strange thought suddenly came to mind.
So, after dinner, he asked the banshee from the mythical era to wash the dishes, the witch from the same era to check the barrier of Emiya's residence, and the magical girl from the future era to patrol the vicinity.
After turning on three light bulbs, he pretended to hold a war meeting.
"The Einzbern family has two heroic spirits." He said straight to the point, "We have three, three against two, and we have a huge advantage."
Shirou and Sakura nodded together.
"However, this is based on the premise that Archer remains neutral. From the situation of the battle at night, Archer seems to be targeting both of us as enemies at the same time - although it is not clear why, he obviously also needs to be on guard as an enemy.
"
Keep nodding.
"Although they may not join forces, it is safer for us to consider the worst-case scenario. In other words, we may have to face a three-on-three situation."
nod.
"Three against three, are you sure?"
Shirou frowned, and Sakura thought for a moment and shook her head in distress.
"The opponent's Assassin's swordsmanship is terrifyingly strong. Even if it's Saber, it's no problem. Rider can't beat him at best - he'll be slightly at a disadvantage."
"But she has a Noble Phantasm—"
"The other side also has it." Shenji interrupted his sister, "Don't expect to use your Noble Phantasm to suppress the enemy. On the contrary, you must always be wary of the enemy's Noble Phantasm - you are already a magician, so you have to think like a magician.
For a magician, you can never be too cautious, because failure means death. I don’t want you to die in such a meaningless place. It would be a disgrace to the Matou family."
Sakura's face suddenly turned red and she lowered her head and said nothing.
"Caster is not the type who is good at fighting. She is responsible for suppressing Illyasviel's magic attack and also assisting me. If the remaining power is used to guard against Archer, it will be somewhat stretched. It may not be a problem in a short time, but time
Over time, you will definitely lose sight of one thing." Shenji didn't have a very high opinion of his heroic spirit, "You can't expect us to finish the work first, on the contrary, we will need your support."
Shirou's smile became even bitterer.
"Now, the only sure advantage is the battle between Beerker and Saber. But how long will it take for Beerker to take down Saber? Can we hold on until that time?"
Shirou shook his head, he was not sure either.
"In the final analysis, our strength is not strong enough." Shenji used an obvious conclusion as the opening statement of the following paragraph, "Within one day - now there is half a day left - there are many ways to improve our strength...
"
"What can I do?" Shirou asked anxiously.
"This solution is on you." Shenji laughed, "Beerker is unable to give full play to her strongest power due to lack of magic power, and you cannot give her enough magic power."
"There's nothing we can do about it. I only have so many magic circuits..."
"We are magicians." Shenji stood up, moved his body, and said nonchalantly, "If the magic power is not enough, then get it from somewhere else."
He said nothing more, turned around and walked towards the door.
In the room, only Shirou, who was confused, and Sakura, whose face was so red that she was almost bleeding.

The winter sun is extremely warm.
After experiencing the deadly battle at night, it was really a pleasant thing to bask in the sun and walk in the peaceful city.
Moreover, he is accompanied by a beautiful woman who can score above 90 points regardless of appearance or figure, and who is completely obedient to him.
"It would be great if this kind of life could go on forever." Sitting in the cafe, basking in the sun and drinking a hot drink, even a cruel person like Shenji couldn't help but say a little bit.
Feelings of weakness.
Medea said nothing. She looked at the peaceful and prosperous streets and sighed inaudibly.
"What's wrong? Instead of enjoying this rare peace, you sigh - this is not like you."
"So Master, what kind of person do you think I should be?" Medea asked in a rare and relaxed tone, "What do you think of me?"
