Shenji was stunned for a moment, looked at the other person's face that seemed a little nervous, and smiled.

"You are my servant and a reliable companion." He said, "It doesn't matter what happened in the past. Your performance last night was enough to win my trust."

"Even if I am the 'Betrayal Witch'? Betrayed again and again, even betrayed the Master not long ago?"

"That's right," Shenji said decisively, "I believe you."

Medea lowered her head and concentrated on drinking hot coffee without asking any other questions.

Shinji didn't look at her expression - he was not a slow fool like Shirou. At this time, it would be better to let Medea be alone - but half-lying on the seat, letting the warm afternoon sun

Through the window glass, it fell on his face.

Very comfortable.

It's just... I don't know if I can get such sunshine again at this time tomorrow...

After a while, he felt that he was almost falling asleep. In order not to relax his mind too much, and not to let his followers indulge in emotional fluctuations for too long, he randomly found a topic.

"Now, Medea, do you have any dreams?"

"Dream?" The voice of the great magician of the Age of Gods was a little sticky. It seemed that he had cried a lot just now. "I don't have any dreams."

"Didn't you answer the call and join the Holy Grail War in order to fulfill your wish?" Shenji couldn't help but be a little curious, "If you don't have a wish, what should you do after you get the Holy Grail?"

"Are you already thinking about obtaining the Holy Grail?"

"Yes, Sakura and I just want to survive. We have no other wishes. Shirou just wants to prevent the Holy Grail War from harming civilians. After all, he is the only survivor of the last Holy Grail War victim.

For Nanoha, she just wants to see her father whom she has not seen since she was a child, so of course the Holy Grail wish can only be given to you or Medusa - to be honest, I think it is better to give it to you, that guy looks very innocent -

—So I'm worried that her wish is just revenge or something...it feels a bit wasteful."

Medea was silent for a while and whispered: "My wish...has come true."

ah?

This time it was Shinji's turn to be surprised.

The wish...has come true?

How could something so outrageous happen? The wish that should have been realized with the help of the Holy Grail...

But his surprise did not last long.

He remembered - the seemingly insignificant "plot" about the heroic spirit in front of him that he had forgotten for a long time.

Her wish seems to be to find someone willing to trust her, right?

It is unexpectedly small and simple, a small wish that is completely inconsistent with the status of "the great magician of the mythical era" and "the strongest witch in ancient Greece".

Realized...

"Congratulations." He couldn't help but smile again - since the Holy Grail War, although the dangers have come one after another, he has smiled sincerely a lot more often, "Then, the Holy Grail belongs to Medusa.

...I guess her wish must be to take revenge on Athena or Perseus."

"Even the Holy Grail can't do this, right?"

"Well, that's of course. I've never heard of a way to change the past in the world. The Holy Grail is just a derivative of the third method, and it can't do such outrageous things."

"Then isn't her trip here in vain?"

"How could it be in vain? Don't you think she is having a great time these days? When we drove in the morning, she was smiling."

Medea recalled it and smiled.

"Master, don't you have any wishes you want to realize?"

"Of course I still have wishes. For example, after the Holy Grail War, I want to travel around the world and enjoy a peaceful life." Shenji closed his eyes and showed a self-deprecating smile at the corner of his mouth, "But, I am like this

Villains, they probably have no chance to enjoy peace."

"And... I always feel like I'm wandering around, a bit like a lone star, and it's very silly."

Medea was silent for a while and whispered: "The Holy Grail contains powerful magic. As long as you drink the contents, even heroic spirits can exist in this world for a long time."

"So, if...can I stay?"

Shenji was stunned for a few seconds, and then he understood what she meant.

"That's not possible." He said pretending to be serious, but there was an unconcealable smile in his eyes, "You have to travel with me."

"Let's make a promise. After we win the Holy Grail War, we will travel everywhere together. I will show you the colorful world four thousand years from now."

On this winter afternoon, many things happened at the same time.

Inside Fuyuki Town Sanatorium, a fat old man with big ears looked at the man in red clothes and white hair in front of him in horror.

The full name of this sanatorium is "Hokkaido Sapporo City Third Supervision Center". In name, it is a prison. But we all know that for many rich and powerful people, prisons are nothing more than sanatoriums -

—It is also a well-guarded and very safe sanatorium.

In the name of the country, providing criminals with points of protection and comprehensive care is a ridiculous thing that is openly carried out in many countries.

Kanzaki Shang, now sixty-two years old, is a real estate developer whose net worth could be ranked among the top 100 in Japan. He is a loyal believer in Japan's famous cult "Aum Shinrikyo".

Although Asahara Shoko, the leader of Aum Shinrikyo, always had to worry about the noose that would fall around his neck sooner or later, Kanzaki Shang didn't care about it at all - he should have been shot five or six times because of "insufficient evidence"

He was just sentenced to life imprisonment. Living in prison was only a little inconvenient for doing business, but it did not affect him at all from continuing to make money and enjoy life.

"You...who are you?" Kanzaki felt that his blood pressure seemed to have risen again, and his heart was a little uncontrollable. "You...you...how did you get in? Guard, guard."

He yelled wildly, but there was no response.

"They are all asleep, including the instruments in the surveillance room." Heroic Spirit Emiya said kindly, "I don't want to cause trouble to them, I'm just here to kill you this time."

"You...you...who sent you here? I can pay three times...not ten times, no matter how much you want, it doesn't matter." Kanzaki kept shaking, and almost all the fat on his body was falling to the ground, "Imagine

There’s so much money to spend, your family also needs money, right? You still have to get married and leave enough property for your children..."

"That's it, Kanzaki." The heroic spirit in red from many years later said to him, "Your money is meaningless to me, so let's use the last bit of value in your decadent life."

Without giving the other person a chance to continue begging for mercy, he stretched out his right hand and pressed the plump old man's forehead.

The next moment, the face of the originally energetic old man quickly turned gray, and he fell to the ground, motionless.

"Although there is no justice in this world, a guy like you who hinders the entire human race is still within the scope of my cleanup." The white-haired heroic spirit looked at the body that had had its soul sucked, and whispered, "You are really amazing, you

But he enjoys the same treatment as the extremely evil king who can destroy the whole world..."

He took out a list and checked off Kanzaki Shang's name.

The list is long.

For the next battle, he needs to replenish a lot of magic power.

Since there is no Master anymore, the only way left is to suck people's souls.

Fortunately, there are still many damned people, it just depends on whether they can eat it or not.

"You have to make up for your own mistakes." He took out a ruby ​​that had lost its light from his arms and stared at it, his eyes softening. "Last time, I was powerless and could only watch you leave; but this time is different.

"

"Rin, I swear I will bring you back to life."

——————

At the same time, Emiya Shirou was sitting on his knees in the living room with a red face, accepting the scolding from his guardian Fujimura Taiga.

Coincidentally, just when Matou Sakura was "replenishing her magic power", Taiga, who had been grounded for several days, finally sneaked out from the Fujimura group. As soon as this energetic female teacher regained her freedom, she immediately rushed to

A place where you can eat and drink together - although Fujimura Group has good wine, it does not have good food. Their chef is indeed high-end, but the Japanese food... Well, we all know that it is a bit too light and does not meet the "Tiger" standard.

The appetite of this creature.

As Shirou Emiya's guardian, Taiga Fujimura has the key to Emiya's residence.

So she walked in directly without announcing anything.

First I went straight to the kitchen, but unfortunately there was nothing.

Of course, at two o'clock in the afternoon, there is no ready food in anyone's kitchen.

So Taiga, who felt hungry, began to look for food in the Emiya residence.

So when she heard a strange noise and opened the bedroom door, she saw a boy and girl entangled together - without clothes.

What a disaster...

Emiya Shirou felt deeply that he must lock the door next time before doing something that is not suitable for elders to see.

"Naye" he used the command spell to complain to his daughter from the future, "Why didn't you remind me?"

"Why hide it?" the girl said innocently, "Can't your relationship be exposed? Don't tell me that you just plan to have fun, that will destroy your good image in my mind."

"Of course I will be responsible"

"That's okay. Age is not a problem, income is not a problem, and identity is not a problem... In the future world, even gender will not hinder marriage, so you can prepare for the wedding with peace of mind."

Shirou figured it out quickly.
To be continued...
