Artoria the Big Liar

However, her voice was still so low, and it immediately destroyed that cute feeling, and turned into a dependable existence like a pillar of the world supporting the sky.This reminds me of what she said last night.And that fleeting sense of cuteness also made me feel more bitter—she shouldn't have experienced such a bleak life.

"It feels good. I haven't gotten any weaker. It's still the same as yesterday, and I can run for a short time."

I answered very calmly.My heart is also very peaceful.

There is no reason for becoming weaker. In fact, I know it very well, and I guess Arthur also knows it very well.

However, there was no blame in her eyes, she just brushed her teeth normally, and then went back to the bathroom.After rinsing her mouth, she came out again and sat on the sofa beside me.The water droplets stuck to her too fair and slender thighs, controlled by gravity, and slid down on the sofa.

If I hadn't actually seen it with my own eyes, I would have never imagined that this body, which looked slender and weaker than mine, concealed a powerful force capable of destroying the city and flattening the hills.

Due to the washing of the torrential rain, the feeling of heat is no longer in the air.The wind blowing slowly through the window made me smell the fragrance of her body-of course, it was just the smell of shower gel, similar to the fragrance of flowers.But just smelling this smell, my mood immediately improved a lot, a lot.

Arthur turned on the TV.After switching channels a few times, I ended up on the news section of the local TV station.

Following the wind, I asked about the fragrance on her body-of course, the fragrance of shower gel.

But just smelling her breath, my mood immediately improved a lot, a lot.

At this time, I suddenly remembered that Arthur has been getting up early all this time, and Mordred still lives at home, this is the first time she appeared in my room with such a naked and defenseless posture. In horizon.

However, just as I was thinking this way, my field of vision suddenly changed significantly and was completely occupied by her face.

"What's the matter, Jeanna? You didn't sleep last night, okay? I feel like you're in a daze today."

Although I tried not to look at Arthur's face, the exposed collarbone... really made it hard to look away.

"Ah...it's nothing, I'm just reminiscing about what you said yesterday..."

After hearing my answer, her figure returned to her original position and her eyes were on the TV.

"The battles of the Holy Grail War usually take place late at night, and our daytime is free... Is there anything you want to do?"

Want to do something?Hearing this question, I raised my head and thought for a while.

However, after thinking for a long time, there is only a blank in my brain, and I can't think of anything.Because I was filled with a sense of restlessness that made me lack motivation for anything and didn't know what to do.

As a result, it took a full 2 ​​minutes before I kicked the ball back to Arthur.

"I can't think of it for now... What is Arthur going to do today?"

"Go shopping? Or go to the cinema?"

"...I don't seem to be interested. I've been shopping and watching movies recently, and I'm getting bored."

"Try an arcade game? Or go to a museum?"

"...Is there too many people? And the arcade games are boring, and I don't want to know the history of this city myself."

"Since you don't want to go anywhere, why don't you stay in the hotel and watch TV together, and have a chat by the way?"

By this time, I finally understood where the restless feeling was coming from.

In name, I was Arthur's master in this Holy Grail War, but I didn't seem to do anything——Arthur was the one who made the plan, Arthur was the one who negotiated, and Arthur was the one who fought.I just hid behind her, in the hotel, and waited for her.

Although she kept saying things like "just wait for a while, and the Holy Grail will be given to me".Although I also know very well that it is really useless for me to stay by her side, and it will hinder her instead.But... I still wanted to do something... Maybe it ended up being a disservice to me, but it was better than nothing.

However, the process of organizing my thoughts was regarded by Arthur as silence.

She moved closer to me, taking over all of my field of vision again, looking into my eyes.

"Jeanna, are you upset?"

"It's not really annoying...【）.

Arthur's eyes flickered.

Only from this slight fluctuation, I read her inner feelings.

She was so smart that she heard my thoughts directly from my words.

There were a lot of drinks on the table, she opened a bottle of Sprite casually, and drank a few gulps.

"I see... I see. Let's climb the mountain together? In Fuyuki's Holy Grail War, there was a small remote mountain called 'Enzosan'. That's where Fuyuki's spiritual veins converge. There is a temple in Enzosan ——Unfortunately, that temple was destroyed 20 years ago, and it has not been rebuilt yet. Enter from a hidden entrance near the temple, and go deep into the "big void", and you can see the core of the Great Holy Grail. Go and see Take a look? Maybe there's something to discover."

Sure enough, Arthur still regarded the daytime as a time for rest and play, but he didn't understand my thoughts.

Seems like she's always been like that, doing all the work.And it's not that I don't trust others, I just feel that I can do better and don't need to waste other people's time and energy.As a result, for others, this sense of restlessness and loss builds up.Although they have been victorious all the time, many people feel that it is worse than failure - their own value, their own feelings, have not been recognized by the king after all.

Perhaps it was for this reason that the knights of the round table left one after another?

But what they don't know is that even if they just stay by their side, they will continue to bring strength to Arthur.

Leaving the act itself would do Arthur more harm than betrayal—just as the opposite of love is not hatred but forgetting.In the end, she lacked the support, the motivation to move on, and the reason to live hard, so she had no choice but to go to the end and fall in the twilight of Kamran.

I am not like them.I can read Arthur's emotions.I know how important I am to her.

For example, now, I can understand the meaning of Arthur's words - for her, what is important is not what to do during the day, but to be able to accompany her today and spend memorable and memorable moments together.

After thinking it through, I took a deep breath, and against one of Arthur's members, I expressed my thoughts: "I think it would be better to visit other masters during this time? Although it will be a hostile relationship in the future , but can there be a sequence? This will make it easier."

"No need." Although he said "no need", the actual feeling in Arthur's heart was "absolutely not allowed to do this". "The Holy Grail War has already begun. Even if we knew each other before, that's the end. The past kindness has been severed. If they really want to repay it, let's repay it to Saber and Mordred... We don't need it."

"Maybe there is room for relaxation? Strictly speaking, they are following the meaning of disintegrating the Holy Grail, right? Moreover, the Yusanjia has been studying the materialization of souls for so long, so there must be more than one solution for the Holy Grail, right? Maybe we can discuss it together and find a solution." What is the solution?"

"No. Because..." Arthur paused, as if he had made up his mind, and admitted the fact: "Because, Jeanna, what you lack is not a body, but a soul...Anyone can create life, But creating souls is definitely in the realm of the gods—and, besides, your situation is far more complicated than a mere lack of souls. They can't help you."

Arthur didn't say all the words in his heart, but deliberately covered and covered them.

I sighed in my heart.Despite the loss, I will never push Arthur.She doesn't want me to know, so I don't need to know for the time being - after all, this is an agreement made only yesterday, unless I want that so-called "white lie" more.

Suddenly, there was a cold touch on the lips.She tasted it briefly, then left, and gently stroked my hair with her right hand.

"Why don't you go to Enzang Mountain? It's a rare place full of magic power. It might help your situation."

"...Okay. Then go to Mount Enzang...that's it."

Having said that, I have lost all excuses and reasons.

I got up, washed and brushed my teeth, and ate breakfast at the hotel with Arthur.

When I was taking a bath, I suddenly remembered the reason why Arthur was so persistent-it wasn't that Arthur didn't want to negotiate with other masters, nor was it that the past kindness was really broken, but that I might be in danger-I'm afraid Up to now, Arthur is afraid of the Caster called "Faust", because his magic that resembles the sun really makes Arthur feel threatened.

My reaction at that time was also a bit extreme... I'm afraid my body trembled involuntarily, right?At that time, my hand was clutching her waist, she must have felt it very clearly, that's why I was so cold in the subsequent negotiations.

Wearing a cheap plain shirt and denim trousers, Arthur and I took the bus to the mountain.

However, sitting in the car, my body felt more and more wrong and uncomfortable.

"Are you uncomfortable?" Arthur asked concerned.

]【* "A little dizzy... and a little nauseous." I answered truthfully.

"It's motion sickness... Did you feel this way when you went to Einzbern Castle yesterday evening?

"No. It was fine when I was in Misaki Town, it's a recent change."

Ignoring the eyes of everyone else on the bus, Arthur expertly pulled me into her arms.

She wiped the sweat from my forehead with a paper towel, pressed her forehead against it, felt my body temperature, and held my pulse with her right hand.

After confirming that I didn't have a cold or a fever, or was cursed by magic, the worry in the golden eyes finally dissipated.

"Then ride the dragon?" she suggested. "No one will find our tracks. After last night's battle, there will be no servants to interfere with us."

"Can I walk? Just treat it as shopping..." I whispered.

"The journey will be very long. This is Xindu, Enzang Mountain is on the west side of Shenshan Town. It will take about three hours to walk all the way, right? And the walk will be very tiring. It rained heavily yesterday, and the weather will soon be hot and stuffy Get up. Is your body really okay?"

"Health is not bad. I set off in the morning, stopped and stopped on the road, and it was almost night when I came back." After a pause, I added: "You can walk as far as you can? If you can't walk anymore, you can go anytime Riding the dragon over there."

"Okay. So be it."

As soon as the voice fell, the bus heard the notification sound of the arrival of the station.

Even though I could walk normally, Arthur helped me off the bus.

As she said before, she grew up in the wilderness as a child, and could remember routes and know directions.Now, without a map or a mobile phone, I just scouted the sky once, then took my hand and walked on the streets of Fuyuki to the target location.

Her speed was deliberately kept very slow, much slower than when shopping in the past, similar to that of an old man walking in the park.Considering that Fuyuki is not a large city, the three hours she said before should be calculated according to this speed.

Time followed the footsteps and slowed down.Even though the surrounding urban landscape has become accustomed to me, under the control of a strong inner impulse, I took out the camera from my pocket, sometimes photographing the street, and sometimes photographing Arthur walking.

At this time, I finally remembered why I wanted to take pictures in the first place - the important thing was not to take pictures of the scenery and buildings of Fuyuki, but the one who was willing to give up all convenient means and walk on the street with me, wasting time completely Man - my dearest Arthur.

Therefore, no matter how the scenery changes, whether it is sunny or rainy, as long as there is a clear figure of Arthur in the photo, it is a good memory, and it is worth taking pictures, developing them into photos, and keeping them in the album, which will become my treasure.

"Didn't you say you didn't want to go shopping before? Why are you taking pictures again now?" Arthur asked casually.

"You don't have to go shopping to take pictures. The camera is in my hand, so I can take pictures whenever I want?" I perfunctorily asked her.

"Remember not to take too many pictures. The capacity of the memory card is limited. If the capacity is used up, you can only delete the previous pictures. At that time, you will feel very uncomfortable, especially when you can't find anything worth deleting, you will choose difficulty of."

"Don't worry about this. I bought several memory cards and put them in my bag. Just replace them when they are full."

"It's a way..."

Time suddenly speeded up, just like a dream, obviously didn't go far, obviously didn't take a few photos, the sun was hanging high in the middle of the sky, and the length of the shadow on the ground was shortened to the limit.

The air became hot, and Arthur and I both sweated a lot and drank a lot of water.

But even so, I felt very comfortable and satisfied all over my body, which was completely different from the mood when I woke up.

I asked Arthur what he wanted to eat, but she said "Why don't you explore the surrounding shops".Then he took me and walked around the street.Finally, in a small corner, I found a small shop and ordered two bowls of fat beef udon noodles.

The quality of the fat beef is not good. It seems that it has been frozen in the freezer for a long time, and the taste is a bit blunt. It should be a cheap product.And the quality of the noodles themselves is not that high.But just like a real artist, this bowl of udon noodles has a strong personal touch-it does put a lot of salt and a lot of spices, but this is not a pile of flavors, but a result of combination Unique flavor, surprisingly delicious.This feeling is like walking on the beach and suddenly found a beautiful shell, which is a kind of surprise.

However, it is also possible that because I am in a better mood, even this bowl of very cheap udon tastes better?

It's a pity that Arthur temporarily lost his sense of taste, which makes me a little sorry.Otherwise, I can ask her if she feels the same way.

During the meal, Fuyuki's news began to play on the TV in the shop.

Last night, on the outskirts of Shenshan Town, a dangerous goods transport vehicle accident occurred.The reason was that there was heavy rain at that time, the ground was extremely slippery, coupled with the driver's fatigue driving, the vehicle collided with trees and exploded.Hazardous materials leaked during the dump, mixed with rainwater, and caused massive damage to the land.However, it is far away from the urban area, so it will not have much impact on the citizens.The pollution caused will also be properly dealt with in the follow-up, so there is no need to be too nervous.

That's what the media said about Arthur's behavior last night.It sounds unconvincing, but the mystery has faded, and there are indeed traces of strong acid corrosion in the local area.No matter how outrageous the whole thing is, as long as there is evidence, people will believe it.

Only the customers of the small shop felt that Fuyuki was not very peaceful recently when they were chatting, and they used this as a starting point to say something that didn't interest me at all.

"It was like this 20 years ago, but now it's still changing." Arthur commented, "However, at that time, whenever an accident occurred, it was said to be a gas explosion or a terrorist attack. Now it is at least linked to science. , can be regarded as a kind of progress."

Chapter 54: I'm such an idiot ([-] words)

Maybe it's because of the meal, but I don't know why my mind feels sleepy.

I also feel weak in my limbs when walking on the road, as if I have sat for too long and the blood flow in my legs is not smooth.

Although he could barely keep up with Arthur's speed, his pace became more and more erratic and weaker.If you don't control your steps well, you may fall if you don't pay attention-and this will only make Arthur worry more.

As a last resort, I stopped her.

"Arthur, I want to sit down for a while..."

Almost instantly, Arthur took my arm.

The body involuntarily fell to her, and the weak legs bent down feebly, unable to support the body anymore.
