My Destiny Illustrated Book of the Moon

Chapter 53 Cutie?

Rider had already retreated, Lancer also left with the Master, and now only the Saber group and Caster's Master monsters were left standing on the field.

Saber looked at the youth who was obviously only human with complicated eyes.

"What are you here for, Shuo Yue?"

Looking back on tonight's battle, not to mention that Shuoyue's servants did not show up from the beginning to the end, he himself fought against Archer and Lancer successively, and then ignored the best chance of defeating Saber, confronted Lancer, and delayed until the end Berserker's withdrawal... Finally, he launched an invitation to Lancer's master, which clearly shows that the riots tonight are not over yet.

But from the beginning to the end, Shuo Yue did not show the attitude of clearing out a follower, but jumped left and right, maintaining a delicate balance.

"Who knows this kind of thing?"

Regarding Saber's inquiry, Shuo Yue shrugged as if it had nothing to do with her:

"To borrow the words of the King of Conquerors, 'Let the historians of later generations think about the reasons, plans, and those troublesome things. We heroes just need to do whatever we want, and run on the battlefield with a passion in our arms.'"

"That's not something a king should say." In Saber's disappointed answer, her attitude was firm.

The King of Knights believes in chivalry, and her beliefs are far from Rider's wild and unruly motives.

"If we meet again, I will definitely have a high score with him..."

"Okay, okay, I regret saying that." At some point, Shuo Yue had appeared beside Saber, holding her left hand.

"Suoyue!" Saber was startled, but she didn't have time to escape.

Not only because Shuo Yue's movements were not hostile, and she felt that there was no warning, but also because of the exhaustion from repeated battles, her movements slowed down by half a beat.

"This is rude, Shuo Yue, please let me go!"

"Don't be angry, I'm helping you." Shuoyue's fingers moved rhythmically on Saber's wound, weaving out magic runes, and in Artoria's surprised eyes, relieved the pain caused by the curse. numbness and pain.

After the magic was cast, Shuoyue let go of her hand cleanly: "Although my magic has reached the realm of replacing concepts, the mystery will yield to a higher mystery... It's a pity that the 'Yellow Rose That Will Be Destroyed' after all It is a treasure, and the curse power contained in it is too high, and I cannot completely eradicate it."

The golden-eyed young man held a short dagger in his hand, with golden lines flowing on the dagger—obviously, through some kind of magic, he transferred part of the curse on Saber's hand to the dagger.

"No, enough." Saber moved her left hand, "Thank you very much, Shuoyue."

"Such a serious personality is also your cuteness, Saber." Rubbing his chin, the young man said suddenly.That expression resembled that of an unscrupulous knifesmith.

Cute?What's the meaning?
Although Saber has received modern knowledge, but still can't master it, she is puzzled, and the dumb hair on her head shakes involuntarily, but behind her, Irisviel, who knows a thing or two, covered her mouth and held back her smile, and she didn't remind her with a dark belly she.

As if aware of her slip of the tongue, Shuo Yue coughed slightly in embarrassment, and said, "So, are you willing to go with me, Saber?"

"To the Hyatt Hotel, Kenneth's workshop?" Saber didn't answer, but Irisviel took a step forward and communicated with Sakuyue as the Master.

"That's right." Shuo Yue said with the same solemn expression, "For you, the first thing you need to do is to lift Lancer's curse, and I happen to be going to challenge Kenneth's magic workshop tonight-I think we will There is already a basis for cooperation.”

"Speaking of which, why did you, Shuoyue, voluntarily crash into a magician's workshop? This is very dangerous, right?" Irisviel asked puzzled.

Shuo Yue smiled at this, "Maybe it's because of curiosity."

"Curiosity? For such a simple reason?"

"Curiosity is human nature, ma'am. Since I already know that there is such an interesting place, why not challenge it?"

Is that really all that is?
The smile on the young man's face was too sincere, yet concealed a secret. With such a strange smile, even Irisviel slipped his tongue for a moment, and said after a while: "So, what do you want us to do?"

"It's very simple. I will fight Kenneth, and you will fight Lancer. In this way, no matter which side wins, Saber's curse can be lifted, and no matter which side loses...you can't blame anyone else."

"It's a very straightforward plan, but it's also effective." Irisviel thought for a while, and her smile suddenly narrowed, "But in a sense, it's also protecting that little girl named 'Mei Yu'?"

After all, in Shuo Yue's plan, his follower, Caster, never appeared.

"It's supposed to be like this. Isn't it natural for the elder brother to protect the younger sister?" Shuo Yue didn't hide it at all, "So, happy cooperation?"

"I don't seem to have a reason to refuse..." Irisviel was about to answer, when suddenly Saber tugged at the corner of her clothes and said something in a low voice, the wife's expression gradually became embarrassing, she looked at Shuo Yue again, He opened his mouth, but suddenly fell silent.

"I'm sorry, Shuoyue..."

"Ah, I understand, that guy Kiritsugu said something, right?" Sakuyue interrupted his wife's apology, and curled her lips in private.

Although it was expected that Emiya Kiritsugu would refuse, but he didn't expect him to react so quickly. Originally, the gap between Saber and him could be even more...

"Tell Kiritsugu, although I don't expect him to reciprocate his kindness, but at least tonight, his actions can be slowed down, allowing me to enjoy the magic contest...otherwise he will regret it."

The request was rejected, after Shuo Yue left behind such endless words, she got into the car neatly, turned the handle, and disappeared from the sight of her wife and Saber.

Saber silently stared at the direction where Shuoyue left, her beautiful side face couldn't see the excitement or haggard look of having survived the death fight just now.The awe-inspiring figure of a girl knight in armor standing on the battlefield is like a painting, beautiful and inviolable.

"Thank you, Saber. Thanks to you, I can survive."

Facing Alice Viel's thanks, Saber smiled back. "I was able to face the enemy and fight without any worries because you were behind me. Irisviel."

Irisviel once again deeply realized how strong, resolute and gentle Saber is.

Although Saber looks a round younger than herself, and she still looks like a girl who hasn't grown up—such a petite figure and such slender wrists, but her body and mind are a perfect knight and a true hero.

"The outcome is only now beginning, Irisviel. Tonight's situation is only the first night of a series of battles."

"……yes."

"All opponents are powerful enemies, the heroes summoned from different eras... none of them are easy to deal with." Saber murmured.

Even the young man named "Suoyue", in the battle, his awe-inspiring and powerful figure made everyone forget the fact that he is not a heroic spirit, but a person of this era.

But when he calls himself a hero, who will argue?

Even though there are so many heroes competing with her, there is no anxiety or fear in the girl's tone.Facing the impending rain, she just cheered up secretly.

This passion, this feeling of blood rushing, will not change no matter in any era in any world, it is the proof of the spirit of being a hero.

Gazing at the starry night sky, the King of Knights whispered.

"This is... the Holy Grail War."
