I don't like the gods, I want to be a hero

Chapter 42 The So-Called Compatibility

With the infusion of Illya's magic power, a picture gradually appeared in the crystal ball - it was a forest near the castle, completely covered by an enchantment.

At this moment in the forest, there are three figures walking cautiously.

"It's Shirou! Shirou came to play with me, Shirou didn't lie to Illya, he really came."

Ilya, who was holding the crystal ball, showed a happy smile, and then sat down on the chair next to her with a light jump. Her legs, which could not reach the floor due to her height, were still swinging rhythmically.

"Look, look, Berserker! Shirou is really here." As if responding to Serius' previous remarks that Emiya Shirou could not make the appointment, Illya held the crystal ball in front of Serius, and Showing off to Seleus with a cheerful and clear voice.

At this moment, Illya, who is proud of her face, doesn't look like the strongest master. She is just an ordinary little girl who is very happy after seeing her younger brother.

"Miss!" Sera was a little impatient.

She said so much earnestly just now, seeing Ilya's performance at that time, she thought she had listened to it, but she didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, Ilya became like this.

"Oh~~, Sera is really annoying!" Illya pouted dissatisfiedly.

Before meeting Serius, Illya was full of murderous intentions towards Emiya Shirou. After all, the other party was the bad guy who stole her biological father, and because she couldn't know the specific information, the childish Illya easily Blame Emiya Shirou for the fault of Emiya Kiritsugu for betraying his family and his wife and daughter.

But after summoning Seleus, Illya, who experienced the care and love again after many years, slowly changed her mind.

A child who lacks love will naturally yearn for more love after getting love, and Ilya is in such a state now.

As the only Emiya Shirou in the world who can give love to a young girl, he has a special status in Illya's heart.

"But... they are the enemies of the eldest lady, and they pose a great threat to the safety of the eldest lady..."

"Hmph! That's not true, Shirou was invited by Illya to play with Illya! He is not an enemy at all!" Illya retorted a little excitedly, and she could see that Sera was very dissatisfied with Emiya Shirou's attitude .

"But...but..."

Facing the resolute Illya, Sera seemed a little helpless, and finally had to look for help to the silent Serius.

"Master Berserker, as Missy's Servant, you should help me persuade Missy at least. As a hero, you should know that if you keep holding such an attitude, Missy's safety will definitely be affected."

Hearing this, Seleus suddenly looked sideways at Illya beside him, and his gaze made the originally happy girl nervous.

If it was the usual Serius, Illya would certainly not be like this.After all, the girl knew very well how caring and tolerant Serius was for her in normal times.

But it was because of Serius' concern and tolerance that Illya had no idea what attitude he would have on issues related to her own safety.

"If Seleus listened to Sera's advice and objected that this meeting would endanger his safety..." Illya felt a little uneasy.

At that moment, Seleus came to Illya with a serious expression, and then slowly opened his mouth amidst the girl's pitiful expression.

"Serra's worries are very reasonable. Illya's attitude towards the Holy Grail War is indeed too lax during this period, and it can even be said to be a little arrogant."

He didn't feel it when he stayed with Illya before, but after Sera's reminder, Seleus quickly realized the problem with Illya.

"Illya, although I am very strong, we are all facing heroes who can leave their names in history, and as heroes, what they are best at is creating miracles that turn the impossible into possible." Said Lucy warned with a serious face.

"And you should be very aware of the cruelty of the Holy Grail War. In this kind of life-and-death battle, if Illya still has this mentality, then it is very likely that she will die before the Holy Grail appears."

The sudden sternness of the always gentle Serius seemed to have a great deterrent effect on Illya. After just a few words, the little guy lowered his head in fear.

"That's right, Missy's mentality..." Sera nodded in agreement.

"But forget it this time. After all, it's the first time Illya invites other people to visit her home. If she voluntarily breaks the appointment, she will definitely leave regrets in her life." Without giving Sera a chance to continue, Seleu Si suddenly put his hand on Illya's head with a smile on his face.

"And I'm also very optimistic about Emiya's character."

"Huh?!" This was Sera who was stunned by Serius' sudden change of attitude before she finished speaking.

"Yeah!" This is Ilya who was so surprised that she cheered. “Berserker is the best!”

"Berserker!" Sera felt his eyes go dark and almost fainted from anger.

......

"I didn't expect you to actually accept that little devil's invitation." On the way to Einzbern Castle, Tohsaka Rin looked helplessly at Emiya Shirou beside him. "Aren't you afraid that she tricked you here to do something terrible to you?"

"Illya's words probably won't be what Rin said." Emiya Shirou scratched his head, showing his trademark good-natured smile. "Even if she possesses magical powers that even Tohsaka can't defeat, she's just a little girl no matter what she looks..."

"Why do you bastards say that I'm not as good as that little devil?" Rin Tohsaka, who was directly stepped on by Emiya Shirou's words, suddenly blew his hair.

"Probably... because of the feeling?" Shirou Emiya, who was taken aback, raised his hand decisively, and then tried in a cautious tone. "Illya has always been very calm during the battle. Compared with her, Tohsaka looks a little embarrassed."

"You guy..." Rin Tosaka clenched her fists blushing, but she was powerless to refute when she thought of her performance at the time.

"Humph! So a half-baked guy is a half-baked guy. You can know the true abilities of magicians only by performance and feeling." Tohsaka Rin suddenly turned around with his arms folded, as if he didn't want the boy to see his guilty conscience at this time. .

However, the eldest lady who often lost the chain didn't notice that although her behavior just now could prevent the young man from seeing her expression at this time, her ears that were flushed from embarrassment completely exposed her mood at this time.

"And that brat who has all the resources of Einzbern must have spent a lot of magic materials to have the current magic power. If you give those magic materials to me..."

Tohsaka Rin, who didn't know about all this, was still thinking about it, but she didn't know if she was explaining to Emiya Shiro or giving herself a comfort.

'Tohsaka's current state... I still don't want to remind her. 'Although he didn't understand his companion's mood at this time, Emiya Shirou wisely kept silent because of the deep feeling. 'I always feel that troublesome things will happen if I disturb her now. '

......

In the living room of Einzbern Castle, Ilya, who was supported by Serius, sat obediently on the sofa, kicking her calf while looking at the crystal ball in front of her.

"What! They only invited Shirou alone, but it's okay for Saber to follow him. After all, he is Shirou's follower, so it's normal to worry about his safety."

Ilya, who was originally happy, frowned her cute little brows when she saw a young lady who was 'poor' in every sense, and then complained dissatisfiedly. "But why did that annoying Tohsaka follow?"

"After all, they are allies, so I don't feel at ease... Well, in fact, I don't know what they think at all." Under Illya's suspicious eyes, Seleus, who was talking nonsense, was quite a bit confused. She spread her hands innocently.

According to common sense, the two sides as allies are indeed obliged to provide their own help when one of them makes a certain tactical attempt, but what is going on now is the Holy Grail War with only one winner and extremely rich rewards. Sooner or later, the two who are allies will meet each other.

Moreover, those who have seen the powerful power of Berserker before should understand that once they enter the base camp of Einzbern, their life and death are all in Illya's thoughts.

In this case, Tohsaka Rinko, as an ally, can be said to be benevolent and righteous to persuade Emiya Shirou to think twice, and there is no need and no reason to follow Emiya Shirou, thus putting himself in danger.

Besides, as the master, Tohsaka Rin didn't even bring his own Archer.

"Hey! Although I don't know what that guy Tohsaka is thinking, since he broke in without receiving the invitation from the master..." As if thinking of something 'interesting', Illya showed a smile A bear-like smile. "It's only natural for me, as the master, to do something to her."

"No, Illya." Serius shook his head lightly, he didn't agree with Illya's bad idea. "The enchantment around the castle is too dangerous, and it will kill people if you are not careful."

"Relax, reassure." Illya smiled lightly and waved her hand. "It's just some small pranks, Illya will control the output of magic power."

Seeing Illya, who was clearly interested, Serius sighed silently for the 'elegant' young lady in his heart. "No matter how you say it, Tohsaka Rin is a guest who accompanied Emiya boy. Illya, don't go too far."

The meaning of the moment is 'just pay attention to the proportion, and the rest is as you like'.

"I know, I know." With permission, Ilya's eyes lit up immediately, and then she looked maliciously at Miss Tohsaka in the crystal ball who hadn't realized what was going to happen next.

'With Saber following, there shouldn't be any major problems, right? Seeing Illya like this, Seleus was inexplicably worried. 'It should be...'

......

"Talk about Tohsaka..." What Seleus and Illya didn't know was that Shirou Emiya also had the same doubts as them.

"what happened?"

"I haven't figured it out until now..." Emiya Shirou turned his head to look at his companion behind him. "You probably don't need to come with me, and you haven't brought that annoying Archer with you."

For some reason, Emiya Shirou, who can get along well with anyone no matter what, always has inexplicable dislike for that red-clothed Archer.

Similarly, Archer's attitude towards Emiya Shirou also has a dislike and malice from the bottom of his heart.

Except for Zouken Matou who was aware of some situations due to his long experience and familiarity with the Holy Grail system, no one knows what happened to a half-baked magician and a heroic spirit carved on the throne of heroes. a strange relationship.

But whenever they asked about Matou Zouken, he would only look at Emiya Shirou who didn't know why with very complicated eyes, and then shook his head lightly without saying anything.

The person involved didn't know, and the guy who seemed to know some information refused to say anything. Over time, Emiya Shiro and the others became less interested in figuring this out, and simply attributed it to the mutuality between the two of them. question.

"That guy." Tohsaka Rin's tone was a little helpless. "As soon as I heard that I was going to visit the castle of Einzbern with you, I just slipped away under the pretext of going to investigate intelligence."

"What are you talking about, you guys will never be in danger with Eliasviel, please don't meddle in my own business..."

"So, why does Tohsaka insist on following?"

"I don't have any particular reason." Except for her eyes dodging around, the girl's performance can be said to be quite calm. "It's just because we need to tell Illya about our alliance, so someone must accompany you."

"And that child Sakura needs to continue to take care of her body, and Matou Zouken is also unable to get away. According to Illya's attitude towards you, there is a high probability that there is no danger in this trip. No matter how unwilling I am, I just want to I can come with you half-assed."

How should I say it?Taking an adventure where life and death are completely under the control of the enemy when it is completely unnecessary, the girl's actions are not as forced as she said.

"Speaking of which." Realizing that there were many loopholes in what she said just now, the girl quickly changed the topic to another companion. "Saber has been keeping silent since the beginning, did you find something wrong?"

"Me?" The awakened Saber pointed to herself.

"Of course, with a preoccupied look, it looks very worrying."

"Don't worry, I don't have any problems here, I just remembered some unpleasant experiences." Saber shook her head lightly, signaling that she was fine.

"Huh!?!" Emiya Shirou who was walking in front suddenly felt as if he had guessed something, the soles of his feet went numb, and he took a step back in panic. "what is this?"

"It's the warning barrier set up by Einzbern." Tohsaka Rin's tone was a little flat, but her words startled Emiya boy.

"Warning enchantment? Will there be any consequences?"

"It's okay, this is just the most basic defensive measure." Referring to her field of expertise, Miss Tohsaka explained to Emiya Shirou, who was still half-baked, with a smile on her face, as if she wanted to show off her profound knowledge in magic. knowledge.

"Since we are invited to visit, it is more polite to inform the host in advance of our arrival."

"Is there really no problem?" Emiya Shirou was still a little worried, after all, in his opinion, this thing has the same purpose as the anti-theft device in the secular world.

And normal people would never choose to touch this kind of thing when greeting their master.

"Relax, reassure." Rin Tohsaka waved his hand with a chuckle, and then took a step forward on his own. "Look, I...wow-!!!"

"Tohsaka!!!"

"cold!"

The moment Tohsaka Rin stepped onto the barrier, a sudden wave of magic power exploded directly under her feet, and the young lady was blown away cleanly and disheveled.

"That brat!!! He really dared to do such a thing! I can't spare her..."

Chapter 43 Malice in the Dark

"It hurts! It really hurts! That bastard kid dared to do such a thing!" Tohsaka Rin held the scratch on his forehead and kept crying.

"Rin, please don't move around, otherwise I won't be able to control the force when I disinfect you." Saber held up a cotton swab in one hand, looking helplessly at Rin Tohsaka who was pillowed on her thigh and kept rolling because of the pain.

It seems to have been targeted...or in other words, Tohsaka Rin, who was targeted by Illya, has been 'baptized' by a lot of magic traps along the way.

Obviously Emiya Shirou and Saber walked to a place where there was nothing wrong, but when Tohsaka Rin passed by, bursts of powerful magical shocks suddenly erupted.

However, although the magic power fluctuations are very strong, apart from knocking Tohsaka Rin into the air and throwing a few somersaults fiercely, it did not cause any other serious harm to the girl.

And Saber was a little nervous in the first few times, seeing Rin Tohsaka who was hit by the trick, she would check her body several times with concern.

But as Rin Tohsaka's tricks increased, and after discovering that the magic traps triggered were all thunderous and rainy, Saber, who had been with Illya for a while, roughly guessed what was going on. thing.

After that, it was not surprising that Miss Tohsaka came to take off on the spot from time to time.

Rin Tohsaka, who understands the principles and uses of barriers, knew from the beginning that Illya was behind the scenes, but without any ability to fight back, she couldn't do anything except incompetent rage.

"That kid is simply unreasonable. How could anyone treat a guest in such an excessive way!"

Rin Tohsaka gritted her teeth, but it's no wonder she was so angry.You must know that when Tohsaka Rin realized that Illya was targeting her, she had to carefully test back and forth several times every step she took.

At the beginning, Tohsaka Rin's approach really allowed her to avoid several traps, but it was quickly resolved by Ilya who had been observing their whereabouts with the early detonation trick.

Although those magical impacts seem to the magicians to be just childlike pranks that cannot be put on the stage.

But the embarrassment they brought to Tohsaka Rin is real, especially Illya's attitude that she only targets her makes this "elegant" lady very angry.

"Besides, Saber, you and that fellow Emiya are fine, the stinky brat is clearly targeting me Rin Tohsaka!"

Feeling the burning sensation caused by the medical alcohol penetrating the wound, Rin Tohsaka complained loudly, trying to reduce the pain in her body by distracting her attention.

But she, who was already fully occupied with her senses, didn't realize that Ilya, whom she called a 'dead brat', was picking up a cotton swab dipped in medical alcohol with a smirk on her face, and sneaking up to her side .

And pointed at her wound and poked it hard.

"I poke!"

"Ugh! It hurts! It really hurts! You nasty brat! I will never forgive you!"

"Illya obviously only invited Shirou alone, but Rin came along on her own, so Illya, as the host, must of course 'entertain' the uninvited guest who broke into the private house."

Ilya put her hands on her hips, looking down at Rin Tohsaka who was twitching from the pain with a bit of arrogance.

"Damn brat! I'll fight with you!" The old grudge was unresolved and a new grudge was added. The unbearable Tohsaka Rin let out an angry roar, and rushed towards Illya regardless.

"Come on, do you think I'm afraid of you, a masquerade baboon who is poor from head to toe, brutal and pretending to be elegant?" Ilya jumped up, wanting to reach out and pull Tohsaka Rin's cheek.
