In the morning, Zheng Shu and his party tidied up a little and headed towards Wei Gong's house.

There is no need to think about the school now. After all, the school was blown into rubble by them just last night, and the morning news had already reported the news that an entire school was destroyed due to a gas explosion.

This incident did not arouse the alarm of the local people. At most, some elderly people muttered that the quality of the gas pipelines built by the Fuyuki City Government was too poor.

It is different from the normal timeline, because Emiya Kiritsugu is still alive and well, and has no intention of dying, so the house he bought is not the luxurious villa in the original book, but more like Magical Girl I The kind of cabin on the Liya line.

Of course, although it is a small house, it also has a corresponding garden, and the distance from the surrounding neighbors is not too small.

After all, as a magician, even a less formal magician, after buying a house, he will inevitably transform his "stronghold" into a magic workshop.

In addition, in order to prevent colleagues from secretly blasting, Emiya Kiritsugu stayed far away from the surrounding neighbors to leave enough vision and buffer just in case.

So after arriving at Wei Gong's house, Zheng Shu found that it was unexpectedly quiet. Of course, this also meant that if something happened, it would not attract the attention of outsiders.

"You guys... step back, I'll stand at the front."

Sensing what happened in the house in front, Zheng Shu raised his eyebrows and gave instructions to several people around him.

Tohsaka Rin and Matou Sakura didn't know what happened, but they still took a step back obediently. Red A and Medusa, who had already sensed the situation in the room, also silently retreated behind Zheng Shu.

"Oh, this welcome ceremony is really warm." Red A said teasingly.

Zheng Shu rolled his eyes and said nothing, but stepped forward and put his hand on the door of Wei Gong's courtyard.

"Come on! Saber!"

A childish-sounding voice sounded at this moment. At the same time, Zheng Shu also saw several familiars made of hair flying out of the house and taking a fighting stance.

Wow!

With a crisp shattering sound, the door of Wei Gong's house was easily shattered by the power from inside. With the help of the cover of the door fragments, a figure quickly burst out magic power and approached Zheng Shu's side.

clang! ! !

With a deafening sound of metal clashing, the broken door debris and dust were cut open by the invisible blade, and the attack that could not be seen with the naked eye accurately landed on Zheng Shu's neck.

Unfortunately, apart from making a huge noise, it didn't have any effect. The terrifying power even made the "wind" hiding the sword a little unstable, giving it the appearance of a looming long sword.

The attacks from the familiars made of hair flying in the sky also arrived at the same time, but when they landed on Zheng Shu, they only caused a negligible wave.

"Hey, long time no see, what a lively way to say hello, Saber."

Zheng Shu didn't even change his posture much. He still had one hand in his trouser pocket, and the other hand that was about to rest on the door handle was retracted, and he waved to the person in front of him as a greeting.

"It's you?!" Artoria looked at Zheng Shu in front of her with a shocked look on her face, and her whole body went crazy.

The oppressive feeling that Zheng Shu brought to her during the last Holy Grail War came back to her again. Arturia did not expect that she would encounter him again in this Holy Grail War.

"What a coincidence. I didn't expect you to also participate in this Holy Grail War. Let's not talk about that. Can you take the sword off my neck first? It's cool in the wind."

Zheng Shu pointed at his neck. The holy sword struck there continued to absorb magic power due to the restrained belt, and the Wind King barrier on the surface of the sword even became unstable.

Zheng Shu was not worried about the aftermath of the Wind King's barrier collapsing and would hurt him. He was mainly worried that it would cause too much noise and attract unnecessary people's attention.

"……good."

After a moment of silence, Artoria put the holy sword away obediently.

After experiencing the last Holy Grail War, Artoria knew very well that if the guy in front of her had any hostility, she would not be able to defeat him even if she tried her best. It could even be said that whether she could escape was a question.

Instead of fighting blindly, it's better to listen to what he wants to do this time. After all, judging from his appearance, it doesn't look like he wants to fight.

Zheng Shu looked at Artoria's actions and nodded with satisfaction. As expected, what he is best at is convincing others with "morality". After all, no matter how rigid a person is, when faced with his "nuclear" kind advice, All will regain a certain degree of sanity.

"Saber! What's wrong?"

Only then did Illya's voice of surprise come from behind. When she and the two fully armed android maids ran out, they were surprised to find that her servants had put away their weapons obediently and stood there. in front of the other party.

Emiya Shirou, who followed them, looked a little stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.

"Hey, little Ilia, have you forgotten me? I am your uncle. I hugged you when you were a child."

Looking at Ilia with hostility, Zheng Shu used the "I once hugged you" method again.

Sure enough, as soon as this absolute skill that was double suppressed by seniority and age came out, Illya's originally angry eyes immediately became much clearer.

The reason why she conducted a raid before was entirely because she sensed the aura of a servant approaching quickly, and the target was very clear. She stopped after reaching the door of her house, so Illya instinctively thought that the enemy was coming. door.

That's why Arturia was asked to ambush behind the door and attack with all her strength as soon as the opponent approached.

If she wasn't afraid that the magic power would fluctuate too much, Illya would have even wanted Artoria to charge up her Noble Phantasm in advance and use it to open the door for the opponent.

Looking at the servant in front of her who was broad enough to block the entire door, Illya blinked, and the deepest impression in her mind was quickly revealed.

"Ah! Zheng Shu, uh... uncle."

As soon as she recalled what she had just done, Illya felt her face burning and wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

She naturally remembered Zheng Shu. After all, it was the medicine Zheng Shu gave her that allowed her to get rid of her identity as the Holy Grail and continue to live healthily.

The two maids following Ilia also saw Zheng Shu's appearance clearly, and immediately carefully hid their weapons behind their backs, but the long-handled battle ax that was as long as one person would be exposed even if it was hidden behind them. , so that both maids looked embarrassed.

"Ahem, Uncle Zheng Shu, what are you doing here this time?" Ilia glanced at the four people behind Zheng Shu calmly, and immediately understood their identities.

"This matter... it's a bit long to talk about. You're not just going to let us stand here, are you?"

"Sorry, please come in!"

Two android maids were cleaning up the broken door outside, while several people inside were sitting around the living room.

"That's it..."

After listening to Zheng Shu's description, Illya's eyes unconsciously glanced in the direction of Emiya Shirou, and Emiya Shirou, who was originally sitting on the sofa, became restless.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't know that my idiot brother had done so many things."

Because of the time spent on treatment, Illya's body still looks like that of a child, but she looks very cute when she speaks such old-fashioned words.

However, Emiya Shirou seemed even more embarrassed, because he could already feel the funny emotions in the eyes of the two android maids who came back from outside the house.

It felt like I was doing crafts in my room but my family members discovered me.

But it was just a little embarrassing. Shirou Emiya never felt that what he did was wrong. In his opinion, protecting innocent people is the greatest justice. Even if such a thing might cost him his life, he would still do it. Be willing to try your best.

"Shirou, this little guy's behavior is a bit childish, but his will deserves recognition, and I'm not here to cause trouble for him. I'm here to cooperate with you."

"Please speak." Illya sat up straight to show respect.

"This Holy Grail War is really too chaotic. In addition to these enemies on the surface, I guess there are many people who want to play dirty tricks secretly. The previous barrier incident in the school made me smell the conspiracy. Smell, so in order to prevent the enemy from defeating each other with conspiracy, we need to unite now..."

The negotiation went very smoothly, or in other words, on the premise that both parties were interested in promoting this cooperation, everyone completed the main body of the contract with little argument.

However, although cooperation has been reached, the specific actions to be taken are not very clear to those present, and the hostile relationship has only been temporarily lifted.

Zheng Shu sat in the living room and listened for a while. He felt that the communication between the magicians was too troublesome for him, so he simply said goodbye and left.

Not long after Zheng Shu left, Medusa also left Emiya's house and began her daily routine inspection.

However, it is said to be a patrol, but in fact it is just wandering around Fuyuki City, because Zheng Shu does not know what Medusa's goal is. After all, in this Holy Grail War, both the servants and the master are well hidden. thorough.

However, Medusa, who is supported by Matou Sakura, is quite strong. Unless she encounters a super-standard servant like Karna, basically no matter what kind of servant she is, she can survive a few moves.

And even if he really met Karna, Medusa's strength would be enough to support Zheng Shu, so Zheng Shu was very relieved to let Medusa wander around at will while he returned to Tohsaka House to continue. Read a book.

But today, Medusa found the goal she had been looking for since she was summoned.

Because Zheng Shu and the others went to Wei Gong's house for negotiations relatively early, a certain small vegetable market was still open even after a delay.

In front of a small shop, someone who looked like a Caster was happily buying groceries.

The other party was wearing quite homely clothes, and his expression was very soft. He did not wear a regular hood, but showed off his beauty openly, even if he was targeted because of his beauty. Don't mind either.

It is far from the arrogance and arrogance that conventional magicians give people. Correspondingly, this kind of defenseless look makes Medusa suspect that if she attacks now, she may be able to kill the opponent directly. .

However, after hesitating for a while, Medusa still did not choose to do this. Instead, she walked to her side and waited quietly for her to finish buying the groceries.

"That's all, thank you very much."

Caster thanked the clerk tenderly. Even though the clerk in this vegetable shop was a woman, he seemed a little dizzy when faced with her delicate and elf-like face. Even when he took the money she handed over, his face was still expressionless. He blushed unconsciously.

Caster took his vegetables from the hands of the dizzy clerk. After saying goodbye, Caster turned to look at Medusa who had been standing beside him: "Let's go..."

Only then did the clerk realize that at some point, another tall woman appeared next to the breathtakingly beautiful customer.

Although his face is a bit stern, his purple eyes and hair, as well as his enviable body curves, still make people salivate.

What's a bit strange is that even though such an outstanding woman stands on the street, she doesn't attract too much attention at all, as if the attention here has been diverted from no one knows when.

Maintaining the suggestion technique in his hand, Caster silently walked towards a park in the distance.

The place is empty enough, and since today is a working day, basically no one will go there at this time, making it the most suitable place for two people to have a conversation.

Carrying the bag in his hand, he came to the park. Caster took the lead and sat down on a bench. He carefully put aside the vegetables he bought. His originally gentle expression gradually changed, and the expression he looked at Medusa gradually became a little complicated. .

"I didn't expect you to actually participate in this Holy Grail War. I see. I've always wondered why he suddenly came to this era to participate in the Holy Grail War. I'm afraid he made a deal with the Will of the World just to see you."

Medusa silently walked to the other side of the bench and sat down, with a long distance between her and Caster.

"But I understand that you will definitely come to participate in this Holy Grail War."

"What? Do you want to stop me? Dear Medusa, although your relationship with Zheng Shu is quite good, it would be a bit naive to rely on his identity as an adoptive mother to stop me."

"...I will stop you, Medea, I will prevent you two from meeting."

After a long silence, Medusa just solemnly repeated her words again.

"Stop me?" A sarcastic smile suddenly appeared on Medea's pretty face, "It's impossible. Since we have appeared here, it means that everything has already happened. The cause and effect on this timeline are already there. It’s certain that the ending has been solidified, and even the top gods cannot change this ending.”

As she said this, Medea's sarcastic expression subsided. She looked at Medusa sitting beside her and became expressionless: "So why do you think you can stop me?"

Medusa's face remained expressionless, but her hands hidden under her clothes clenched unconsciously.

"So... do you really want to meet him? Why?"

"Because I am willful." Medea said this naturally, but she did have the capital to be willful.

She is the daughter of King Colchis in ancient Greece and the apprentice of Hecate, the goddess of magic. In his eyes, today's magicians are just children holding water guns, and they have many kinds of skills that even in modern society are possible. Magic in the realm of magic.

Medea can be willful if she wants to.

"When you were summoned, you should have been filled with a lot of knowledge by the Holy Grail, so you should probably understand what I did in the 'history' of this timeline."

Medusa paused and said nothing.

Medea showed an elegant smile. With her beauty, such a smile was really heartwarming, but Medusa only felt a cold feeling.

"Although those things have never happened to us, in a sense, according to my character, I would indeed do such a thing. Now...do you think you can still stop me?"

Medusa fell silent. She was not good at using words to communicate with others. After the "negotiation" failed, she naturally wanted to use a more direct method.

"Oh...don't you want to fight me here?"

Feeling the fighting spirit suggested by Medusa, Medea did not panic at all, but instead covered her mouth and smiled softly.

"Not to mention whether you can beat me in a two-on-one situation, according to the character of that guy Zheng Shu, he should rush over if there is any fluctuation in your place. Then it will be you who facilitated the two of us. It’s a personal meeting. As a god, you should know very well that the more you resist fate, the more likely you are to promote the development of fate."

Medusa was stunned for a moment, and finally gave up her plan to fight, and just stood up silently.

"No matter what you say, I'll do my best to stop you."

After saying these words, Medusa's body turned into a spirit and disappeared into the air.

"Tch, even if you don't stop me, I won't go to see him. It's not time yet...it's still a little bit close." Medea said softly, looking at the empty place in front of her.

Beside her, there was a slight fluctuation in the air, and with the gathering of golden spirits, Cu Chulainn's figure appeared behind Medea.

"Master, it was really dangerous just now. The murderous intention in that little girl was almost uncontrollable several times. If she really takes action, it will not be easy to deal with."

"Didn't I summon you just to let you do such a thing? Also, that person is a god and is older than you. Remember to be respectful."

Medea rolled her eyes, reached out and picked up the bag full of vegetables next to her and walked towards her stronghold.

"Yes, yes, do you need me to go up and deal with her? Although it's not night, now is a good opportunity."

Medea stopped in her steps and turned to look at the servant she had summoned. The coldness in her eyes even made Cu Chulainn shiver.

"Didn't you understand what I just said?"

Boom.

He swallowed unconsciously. Although he didn't know why a Caster on the other side would bring so much pressure to him, Cu Chulainn still chose to trust his intuition, so he raised his hands with a smile and took two steps back, showing own attitude.

"It's just a joke, don't be angry, it's because Master you have been using passive combat methods that make me too bored. Master, do you plan to stay in your magic workshop during this Holy Grail War? ?”

"It's not yet time."

Medea said this lightly and ignored her. Cu Chulainn looked at her with a somewhat confused attitude, and could only helplessly turn into a spirit body again and follow her.
