Comprehensive Manga: from Academy City

"That, that, Matthew, did I 010 say something that made you unhappy? Why do you suddenly look at me with such an expression?" Fujimaru Rika subconsciously rushed to Matthew's side to comfort her, and at the same time, she was very puzzled. He said with an expression as if he didn't know anything.

"I was just thinking, maybe if the two of us change our roles, maybe things will be much better." Mash replied in a low voice, and at the same time stared at her with eyes that Fujimaru Rika couldn't understand.

Afterwards, Matthew grabbed his shield and said cheerfully: "Stop talking about that, let's go find the Holy Grail Water. You said that even if I want to mess around, you will accompany me. ,Right?"

Looking at Mash's cheerful expression, Fujimaru Rika almost immediately felt the unease and trembling she was hiding in it.

"Of course, we're going together." Fujimaru Rika didn't stay silent for too long, and she smiled happily.

"Yeah!" Matthew nodded heavily.

The conversation between the two Soymilk just now was hidden in their hearts, as if such a conversation had never happened before.

But in fact, this conversation buried some inexplicable feelings in their hearts.

So (cibi) they both looked cheerful, but in reality, they didn't say a word on the way to the location of the Holy Grail Water.

Fujimaru Rika looked at the back of Mash, who was one position faster than her, and her heart was up and down.

Maybe just now, Matthew was right.

Just swap their identities.

Fujimaru Rika wanted to be a servant very much, but Mash wanted to be a normal girl.

The position between them is wrong, as weird as a man living in a little loli's body.

And this kind of weirdness, when they entered Noah's Ark, they didn't even feel it.

Maybe...they were also influenced by the Lostbelt, and that influence was brought into Noah's Ark.

Or maybe Noah's Ark brought them such a weird idea.

Fujimaru Rika couldn't figure it out for the time being, but she didn't think much about it this time, and just put this inexplicable problem behind her.

They walked in silence for a while, and suddenly both of their ears moved.

They seemed to hear some running water.

It's like there's a nearby...

Flowing river!

Fujimaru Rika and Mash looked at each other, and immediately quickened their pace, victory was on the way!

The two pushed aside the bushes in front of them and excitedly rushed through the grass in the way.

Ahead is the location of the Holy Grail Water they have been looking for!

How sacred is the water filled with the holy grail that is said to grant all wishes?

What wonderful taste will it have?

Does drinking it make you live forever? !

Or is it like the Holy Grail that can fulfill the wishes of those who get it?

Mash and Fujimaru Rika didn't know, but they looked at each other and couldn't suppress the excitement in their hearts, so they rushed out.

"what!"

"Uh……"

As soon as they rushed out of the woods, Mash and Fujimaru Rika were stunned.

There is indeed water here.

Streams flowed through craggy stone crevices, and the crystal-clear water glistened in the sun's rays.

On the edge of such a beautiful stream, a person turned back in fright and stared at them with wide eyes, very shocked.

The three people stood there rigidly across a stream, like three sculptures.

"Atalanta?!" After all, it was Fujimaru Tachika who spoke first, breaking the silence, "Why are you here?"

"I should ask this question, right?" Atalanta raised the kettle in his hand, got up and tightened it, then frowned and said, "I just came out to fetch water, what are you two doing? Why are you so excited?"

Atalanta still remembered how they had just emerged from the bushes, the shock and surprise on their faces, she swears by her hunter's vision, it was definitely because of something very precious and rare.

They thought they had found it and victory was ahead, so they were so excited and quickly let go of their guard.

Although Atalanta has no scheming, this kind of thing is similar to hunting, which is completely different. She can almost feel the different atmosphere with her sharpest sense of smell.

"I, we..." Fujimaru Rika got stuck. Originally, she could make up something to explain directly without changing her face.

But I don't know if it was the random thoughts along the way that distracted her attention, and Fujimaru Tachika got stuck this time, failing to display her usual calmness and wit.

This performance immediately caught Matthew's attention.

She glanced at Tatsuka Fujimaru next to her without a trace, and also saw her fingers that were wriggling uneasy.

It seems that even the master, who is always rational and calm, can't completely control his heart.

"We also came to fetch water, but we got lost in the middle." Matthew said so, and said casually, "Speaking of which, how did you get here? We haven't found a way yet."

As soon as Mash said that, Fujimaru Rika immediately picked up her mind and looked at Atalanta with curious eyes.

They had been lost in the woods for a long time, and even if Matthew hadn't recovered and used Gahalad's mind and strength to find the right path, they might still be wandering in it now. .

Chapter [*]: A fool has a fool's way

"What, so you didn't find it?" Atalanta said carelessly, "Just follow the spot of light underground."

Mash and Fujimaru Tachika's faces immediately stiffened.

"Those spots of light look messy, but they're actually just an invisible road, with the same coordinates." Atalanta didn't pay attention to the increasingly dark faces of the two companions, and said very without a wink.

"And there are still many such spot routes. It stands to reason that no matter which route you take, you can come here. Why, don't you know?"

Atalanta had no idea how much trauma she had inflicted on the two partners unintentionally.

Matthew turned his neck stiffly and looked at Fujimaru Tachika. Sure enough, he saw the same stiffness and embarrassment in the other party's eyes.

So...is that the reason?

The two of them are still smart people, especially Fujimaru Rika, but in fact, they have never considered the idea that the light spot illuminated by the inexplicable sunlight is a signpost that guides the road.

For some unknown reason, they ruled out the most likely answer at the same time.

Matthew didn't think there was any problem with the shade and light spots, but Fujimaru Rika looked at it several times, and the doubts in his heart were one by one, but he just didn't think of the possibility of 'road signs'-.

Because in her mind, the existence of the Holy Grail Water should not be found in such an obvious way.

I didn't expect it, it could be.

Matthew looked at Atalanta with amazed eyes, as if he had seen some rare species.

"Amazing, it turns out that idiots have their own way of distinguishing, um, it's really interesting." Matthew nodded solemnly.

"Really, don't be too envious, Matthew." Atalanta obviously didn't understand the yin and yang of this era, but replied with a smile, and at first glance, she regarded herself as a great smart.

"Wait a minute, Matthew." Tatsuka Fujimaru said suddenly, saving Atalanta, who was getting more and more puzzled, and Matthew, who became more and more stiff, "Maybe we just found the water source, not the Holy Grail, right? ?"

"Yes, this is also possible!" Matthew suddenly realized and said loudly, not sure if it was a voice that he didn't want to face, or was simply escaping, "I'll feel it again, maybe we haven't reached our destination yet. Woolen cloth."

Both of them are very optimistic about this, but in Atalanta's eyes, the two of them seem to have encountered something that they can't admit, or simply don't want to admit, and hurriedly find other ways to verify. .

"What kind of riddle are they playing... What is the Holy Grail Water?" Atalanta mumbled in her heart, and decided to stay here and wait for a while to see what the two of them were going to do.

Matthew has closed his eyes again, frowning, as if looking for something, very careful and serious.

But if you notice the corners of her mouth, you can see that Matthew's mouth is already twitching slightly, and when he opens his eyes again, his expression is even more complicated.

"How is it? Did you find it?" Fujimaru Tatsuka asked impatiently. At this time, she wanted to know the location of the Holy Grail Water even more than Matthew.

"...Found it." Matthew replied in a low voice.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's find it together!" Fujimaru Rika said with a smile, but she didn't get a response from Mash.

On the contrary, Matthew was still staring at the pond in front of him with inexplicable eyes, and he stopped talking for a long time.

Finally, she shook her head and whispered.

"The water of the Holy Grail is the pond in front of you."

"..." Fujimaru Rika couldn't help but closed her eyes.

She didn't want Matthew and Atalanta to see the shock in her eyes, even if she knew, these two also felt no less than her.

After a while, when Fujimaru Rika opened her eyes, both Mash and Atalanta remained silent, and the three of them were immersed in such an inexplicable atmosphere.

Fujimaru Rika and Mash were shocked, while Atalanta was simply confused.

"Well, what exactly is the Holy Grail Water, can someone explain it to me?" The silence was too long, and Atalanta couldn't hold back after all, and was the first to speak to break the current atmosphere.

For some reason, Mash and Fujimaru Rika both breathed a sigh of relief.

"It is said to be water that has been held by the Holy Grail. We suspect that such water may have part of the power of the Holy Grail, or not, but this is always a clue, let's take a look." Fujimaru Tachika explained.

Atalanta's eyes widened suddenly, and her voice trembled as she said, "The water that the Holy Grail carried?! There must be a different place. You said it was in a pond, where? I am very good at water. , you can dive in and take a look."

As long as you are a Servant, there is no one who is not interested in the Holy Grail, especially a heroic spirit like Atalanta who asks for the Holy Grail.

She also has her own little wish. If she gets the Holy Grail, she can make a wish to the Holy Grail and fulfill her dream!

However, now that they are still in the Lost Belt, they cannot connect to the Holy Grail at all, let alone fight the Holy Grail War.

0. 0

What's more, Atalanta is in a legend that is too long ago, and there is no strong heroic spirit, and it is almost impossible to be summoned.

Atalanta herself knew this, so she never coveted the Holy Grail.

But this time, something like the Water of the Holy Grail, which is very likely to fulfill his wish, appeared!

Atalanta thinks this is a very rare opportunity, and this may be the closest she gets to the word Holy Grail!

She must seize this opportunity!

What surprised Atalanta was that this time there were two people who looked over with strange eyes.

"What's the matter, did I say something strange?" Atalanta twisted her body uncomfortably, and then asked curiously.

"No... how do you say it?" Mash hesitated for a while, but still looked at Fujimaru Rika.

She believed that her contractor would be able to convey her meaning very clearly.
