"Pap..."

Emiya Shirou knelt down directly. He did not surrender, but his knees had already softened unconsciously, causing him to kneel softly on the ground.

Looking at the situation in front of her, Tohsaka Rin closed her eyes. Although to a magician, ordinary people are just items similar to resources, but she still couldn't see a living life disappearing so directly.

In front of her, the girl had no choice at the moment. All she could do was to close her eyes and deceive herself as if none of this existed.

Looking at Shirou Emiya's pale face and Archer Shirou Emiya standing aside, 14952/'>Liu Mengchao burst into laughter.

"This is Emiya Kiritsugu's house, right?"

Liu Mengchao asked suddenly and abruptly, causing Emiya Shirou, who had closed his eyes to wait for death, to suddenly open his eyes, a pair of black pupils full of surprise.

"You're not scared out of your wits, are you?"

Liu Mengchao tilted his head and looked at Emiya Shirou with a smile on his lips.

"Yes... my father is called Emiya Kiritsugu." Emiya Shirou said, looking at Liu Mengchao with some confusion. Could it be that the old friend the man mentioned just now is also related to his father?

"Saber?" Liu Mengchao turned around, looked at the girl in armor behind him and said with a smile, "It seems he is the son of your old friend!"

"Emiya Kiritsugu...?"

Saber's brows furrowed tightly. In the last Holy Grail War, she was more of a follower of Irisviel than Emiya Kiritsugu's servant. From the beginning to the end, she was consistent with

There was no interaction with the master who was emotionless and extremely cold.

but……

Although she is not stingy about spilling her blood on the battlefield, Saber still doesn't like to kill civilians so roughly. Such an approach completely violates the code of the King of Knights.

"Let him go."

Saber said softly. Upon hearing Saber's words, Archer Emiya Shirou's eyes suddenly lit up. But there was still a trace of hesitation in his heart...

Why can't Saber be Emiya Shirou's servant? He clearly remembers that in Emiya Shirou's belly is the scabbard of Avalon, the Sword of Promise of Victory! It's obviously Emiya Shirou who used the power inside his body when he encountered danger.

Avalon summoned Saber! Everything seems to be different...

Archer looked at Liu Mengchao with a complicated expression, but Liu Mengchao just raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Shirou Emiya with a smile.

"juvenile."

Liu Mengchao said slowly, and for a moment, he completely became the focus of everyone present.

Gudu...

Emiya Shirou swallowed subconsciously and looked at Liu Mengchao's face, not knowing how to answer. After all, everything in front of him happened too fast.

I was still a helpful student in the afternoon. I had just helped the archery club clean up and repair their bows. Then I encountered the scene of the Lancer and Archer in blue clothes fighting. There was a gap in my memory, as if

I was rescued by someone. After that, when I ran home in a panic, the lancer chased me.

Then……

Emiya Shirou looked at Liu Mengchao with some helplessness and confusion.

The changes were too rapid, causing the young man to lose his way for a moment.

"We are lost on the road of life. Please let the three of us stay for a while." Liu Mengchao said seriously, but it almost scared Tohsaka Rin and Archer's jaws to drop. This person who looked extremely cold-hearted

How could a man say such a thing?!

But Tohsaka Rin felt deep down that Emiya Shirou would not refuse.

The reason is very simple. No matter who it is, no matter who has two huge and cold guns on their heads, they will not say a word "no". Shirou Emiya wanted to open his mouth and say yes. But the fear in his heart made his voice change.

After groaning hoarsely for a while, Emiya Shirou had no choice but to nod slowly in the end, expressing his thoughts.

"Then..." Liu Mengchao looked at Shirou Emiya who was about to collapse and said with a smile, "I would like to ask, as the master, do you provide midnight snacks?"

With a gun pointed at him, what else could Shirou Emiya say?

He nodded slowly, turned around, and staggered away towards the distance. As if everything he experienced tonight was a nightmare, as long as he returned to the room and closed his eyes, everything would be fine.

They will all disappear.

"Do you want to kill me right here? Or let me go?"

As Emiya Shirou gradually disappeared, Tohsaka Rin's voice slowly sounded.

"I don't even want to," Liu Mengchao turned his head and said with a smile to Tohsaka Rin, "Let's think about it, how about we form an alliance?"

Alliance?

Hearing Liu Mengchao's words, Tohsaka Rin felt a sense of joy in his heart subconsciously. Although he was at war with other masters during the Holy Grail War, the two of them joined together to attack the weak-sighted or the most powerful first.

Master, using this to increase your winning rate is not something difficult to accept.

But……

Tohsaka Rin glanced at Liu Mengchao with a complicated expression and shook his head imperceptibly.

If I form an alliance with Liu Mengchao, I'm afraid that after all the masters are eliminated, I will be killed easily, right?

In the Holy Grail War, there was never any mercy, only endless cruelty.

Thinking of this, Tohsaka Rin lowered his head and looked straight at his toes.

"I... can't do it." The stubborn girl said, suddenly raised her head, looked directly into Liu Mengchao's eyes and said sternly, "If you form an alliance with the strongest person in advance, I will be the only one left in the end.

At that time, I will be left alone and helpless, and I will let you slaughter me? I, Tohsaka Rin, am not that stupid!"

"oh?"

Liu Mengchao shook his head slightly, turned around and looked at Archer Emiya Shirou who was standing aside.

"What do you think?"

"As a servant, I support the master's statement."

Archer Emiya Shirou said, slowly raising the black and white general Moye in his hand, waiting for Liu Mengchao's attack.

"Even if I die here, I will defend my master with my life."

Archer Emiya Shirou took a deep breath. He had experienced hundreds of battles and had already discovered that when he faced Liu Mengchao and his Saber, his winning rate was less than 1%.

After despair, deep despair, comes the urge to give everything.

"Let's go."

To Tohsaka Rin's surprise, Liu Mengchao actually stepped out of the way and allowed her and Archer to leave. After hearing Liu Mengchao's words, Saber and Qi Xiaoxiao looked at each other, nodded in unison, and stood on both sides of Liu Mengchao.

On the other side, he was wary of Tohsaka Rin who was walking in front of Liu Mengchao.

"Why?"

After walking to his servant, Tohsaka Rin felt that his originally worried heart was finally relieved, but what remained was more doubts and confusion.

"Why let me go? Even if you kill me, it's better than letting me escape, right?"

The moonlight shines down from high in the sky, and it seems that I can feel the determination in Tohsaka Rin's heart, illuminating the girl's profile. Archer Emiya Shirou's red trench coat serves as Tohsaka Rin's back, making the girl seem to be in the blood.

Bathed in the moonlight.

Cruel but also revealing of holiness, as if a white and fragile white flower bloomed from the depths of the most desperate hell.

Liu Mengchao sighed softly.

"This Holy Grail War is definitely different from what you imagined. There are countless powerful servants. Please take care of yourself."

After saying his last advice, Liu Mengchao looked back at Qi Xiaoxiao and Saber, nodded to them, and blended into the boundless moonlight behind him.

"Liu Mengchao, are you soft-hearted?"

In the vast moonlight, Tohsaka Rin suddenly heard a woman's voice.

After this question, there was only a hearty laugh as an answer, resounding in the night sky. (To be continued...)
