My Destiny Illustrated Book of the Moon

Chapter 72 Change of Fate

Miyama Shopping Street

As the largest pedestrian street in Shenshan Town (the old capital), there are supermarkets, vegetable markets, clothing stores and other shops here. Although it is not as prosperous as the new capital, it has a breath of life that is not there.

After performing the magic, Shuoyue and his party successfully blended into the crowd, enjoying the rare daily life, even their footsteps became lighter unconsciously.

"So did you know about it from Ahadeon a year ago?" Saber nodded after her doubts were answered, put down the topic, and asked instead, "Where are we going next?"

"Let's go to the clothing store first, clothing store." At this time, the food in Shuoyue's hands has been replaced by thick fish, and the delicious smell spreads all the way. I don’t have proper casual clothes yet, let alone you, the unworldly Winter Princess and the Knight King of Ancient Britain, oh, and of course, my kawaii sister.”

Saber in formal attire and his wife in high-end fur are out of place in this small seaside town,
"Hmm, is it really a problem with this attire?" Hearing that, Saber cast a reproachful look at Irisviel.

If it was in the past, Irisviel would put her hands together, beg for mercy with a smile, and then expose this matter.But now she just returned an apologetic smile to Saber, and then continued to hide behind her, looking timid, as if she was avoiding something.

Irisviel had been like this since last night.

Saber sighed silently in her heart, and Shuoyue led everyone to the clothing store as if she didn't realize it.

"This is the best clothing store in Fuyuki. Although we don't have time to customize, some of the finished products are very good. Miyu, help me choose some clothes for my two sisters. I can do it myself."

"Okay, brother." Miyu nodded with a serious face.

After Saber took the clothes to try on, Irisviel didn't change immediately, but quietly came behind the young man while Miyu was picking out clothes.

"Well, what's the matter, ma'am?" Sensing the breath behind her, Shuo Yue turned her head, and was startled by Irisviel.

"Well, red bean paste Nacesida (I'm really sorry)!" The wife bowed at 90 degrees, and Shuoyue hurriedly dodges in fright, "I'm very sorry for what Kiritsugu did!"

For Irisviel, who is only nine years old in mental age, Emiya Kiritsugu's behavior of "revenging kindness and revenge" yesterday must have troubled her a lot.

She would not object to her husband's decision, but at the same time she felt guilty towards Shuo Yue who had been helping them all the time—this kind of contradiction had always made her unhappy, and finally turned into the current scene.

"I thought why you were so quiet today, so it's because of this incident?" The young man with golden eyes scratched his cheeks and smiled calmly, "Irisviel, raise your head, you don't have to feel sorry for this .”

"Eh?" Irisviel raised her head in a daze, her ruby ​​eyes were full of doubts.

Shuoyue picked out suitable clothes, and asked indifferently: "Madam, what do you think is the relationship between me and Kiritsugu?"

"Uh... friend?"

"Wrong, it's my opponent." Sakuyue shook her head and said, "As his wife, you should understand—when I chose to become a participant in the Holy Grail War, no matter how good my relationship with Kiritsugu was, we They have all become enemies destined to fight."

"Recalling it now, I can't help applauding Kiritsugu's plan. If Kotomine Kirei hadn't disrupted the situation, I would have been seriously injured by him, right?"

The young man smiled lightly, and there was indeed only admiration in his golden eyes, without any resentment.

He turned his head, looked at the bustling crowd outside the window, and said softly:
"I'm not blaming Kiritsugu. Since we're also fighting for our own wishes, we should all give our best to each other, and there's no need to leave any room. It's just a risk of life. Once that wish surpasses everything we've done so far life, then death is not worth fearing.”

Irisviel was silent, she suddenly recalled Kiritsugu's wish.

I wish for world peace, and make this Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City the last bloodshed for mankind.

For this reason, at all costs, even his own life, he ruthlessly bet on this game of gambling.

How could he choose to let him shoot because of mere friendship?
Can……

but……

Irisviel's memory of her husband's pain last night, the frail expression on that man's face when he decided to "abandon everything and run away" and begged her to leave with her, is still fresh in Irisviel's memory.

"This is wrong..." Irisviel murmured, while the young man at the side smiled and affirmed her.

"Yes, the reason why people are human is because we have thoughts, emotions, and souls. If we simply regard ourselves as machines, how can we achieve our wishes as a 'human'?"

Shuo Yue raised her hand slowly, then dropped it heavily as if cutting something.

"If in doubt, it must be corrected."

"If a loved one has done something wrong, you must be the first to stand up and fight his mistakes."

"Irisviel, what Emiya Kiritsugu taught you is not just obeying orders, right?"

As if she had made up her mind, Irisviel clenched the clothes in her hand and answered.

"No, Kiritsugu has given meaning to my life, so I will respect his ideals and fight for his wishes."

The young man smiled, waiting for the next words from the artificial man.

"But, as you said, once I think that such behavior will hurt Kiritsugu himself, once I find out that Kiritsugu is fighting by strangling his emotions and sacrificing his own existence—"

As the artificial human of Einzbern, the little Holy Grail that has high hopes, the beautiful artificial human raised his head, and resolutely said this sentence:

"Even if this Holy Grail War is declared a failure, I will not allow him to continue to hurt himself!"

"Bravo!" Shuo Yue smiled, joy and relief intertwined in her golden eyes.

I am delighted to witness the awakening of an artificial human, and I am gratified that his efforts have not been in vain. The wings of his little butterfly have actually changed the fate of some people.

After saying these words, Irisviel's heart knot was finally untied, she turned her head, looked at Saber who had been waiting by the side, her eyes lit up: "Saber, your outfit is so beautiful !"

"Ah, um..." But Saber just responded in a daze, her blue eyes staring at Shuoyue all the time, her heart full of doubts.

Why did the words just now sound like...

Lord Galahad?
But at this moment, Shuo Yue's eyes also fell on her, and she froze in place on the spot.

　My name is Mash Kyrielight, and the true name of the Heroic Spirit given to me is - Galahad!
　　Put together my spirit foundation, and now I will cut off the filth of the round table!
　　If you have doubts about the king, you must correct it.

　　If Wang does something wrong, she must be the first to stand up and fight her mistakes.

　　Isn't this the chivalry you admire! ——Small Eggplant
