Chapter 34: The Entanglement of Fate
Danger, very dangerous.
This was Altria's first reaction.
This was by no means an unfounded conjecture, because she had an inherent skill called "intuition", and her level was A, which could even predict the future for a short time.
Just now, she keenly captured the possibility of being pierced to death by countless swords from the future line.
Although the possibility of such a thing happening was very small, it also proved that this young man had the power to kill her.
But soon, Saber realized that her vigilance was unnecessary, because after a short moment of daze, Irisviel soon showed a surprised smile: "It's Shirou, I didn't expect to meet you here, Illya misses you very much."
Shirou? Saber paused and turned her head suddenly.
Red hair and brown eyes, the shape of the end of the eyebrows was like lightning.
However, this illusion soon dissipated, and the young man standing in front of her had white hair, and even his eyes turned into brilliant gold.
Strange... The handsome knight frowned, and somehow felt a great sense of familiarity and disobedience.
On the other side, Miyu, who returned to Sakutsuki's side, looked up and secretly looked at her brother.
"... Shirou?"
It was the same name again, but Miyu couldn't remember it. '6' '9' 's' 'h' 'u' 'x' '.' 'c' 'o' 'm'
But, this name is so familiar.
More than once, Miyu was troubled by her missing memory.
Fate is so interesting and playful. It brings a group of people connected by fate together on the same stage, but deprives them of the induction between them, and maliciously expects the actors to reach a tragic end in their belated awakening.
But this time, a soul from another world looked down from a high place and saw every vein of fate clearly.
"Hello, Irisviel, the master from Einzbern." Sakutsuki deliberately used a strange name, took off the glove on his left hand, and stretched out his hand to his wife.
The three holy marks on his hand were as hot and dazzling as flames.
"As a fellow participant in the Holy Grail War, Sakutsuki, I greet you here."
Irisviel subconsciously reached out her hand, and she finally reacted until Sakutsuki let go.
"So, 'Shirou' is..."
"It's just a name that came to mind, don't mind it." Sakutsuki suppressed the throbbing in his heart and said lightly.
"Oh..." Irisviel nodded, not quite understanding, "Kiritsugu told me a long time ago that you might also participate in the Holy Grail War, but I didn't expect to meet you so soon."
"Kiritsugu..." Thinking back to that man, Sakutsuki nodded, "If it's him, I'm not surprised at all. (っ◔◡◔)っ
After all, that's the man who ended this Holy Grail War.
"Oh, right!" As if she remembered something, Irisviel clapped her hands and said as if asking what to eat tonight, "Shirou, what is the job of the servant you summoned?"
"It's Caster. "Sakutsuki did not hide it and responded openly.
After hearing this, the wife suddenly showed a smug smile on her face.
When Artoria realized that something was wrong and wanted to speak, it was too late.
"My servant is Saber, the best class in the Holy Grail War." As if introducing her best friend, the wife hugged Artoria's arm, and her tone was not without boasting.
"Irisviel!" The blonde beauty in men's clothing glared at her, her blue pupils full of helplessness, but she still stepped forward and saluted the knight, "Servant Saber, please teach me."
Sakutsuki was about to return the gift, but Miyu stepped forward, her little face solemn: "Servant Caster, please teach me."
"Ah!" Irisviel covered her mouth, with little stars in her eyes, "Is she such a cute girl?"
"Be careful, Irisviel, her strength should not be underestimated. "Feeling the vast magical power of the girl, Altria reminded.
However, the natural lady didn't care about this. She looked down at the cold Miyu, and finally opened her arms and hugged her in her arms.
"Hmm." The soft touch came towards her, Miyu struggled a little, but Irisviel hugged her tighter.
Under the helpless gaze of Sakutsuki and Saber, Irisviel, overflowing with maternal love, raised her head and blinked her beautiful red eyes, her tone was still so natural:
"So... Sakutsuki, are you here to form an alliance with us, or an opponent?"
"You have captured my servant, what else can I say?" Sakutsuki laughed helplessly.
"I just came to play with you. ”
————
The low sun in winter had disappeared behind the other side of the hills at some point, and the streets shrouded in darkness began to show a different look. The colorful lights flickered and were reflected in the eyes of the people, shining like stars.
And Irisviel was undoubtedly the most active one. She walked in front holding Miyu's hand, laughing with joy from time to time.
There must be many cities in the world with more beautiful night views than Fuyuki City. But for Irisviel, the night view she saw now and the feeling she felt were the first precious treasures she had ever received.
"It's really beautiful... There are so many people living here, and the night becomes so dazzling..."
Moved, Irisviel's whisper reached Miyu's ears.
Miyu looked up at the woman who looked like an adult but was actually as innocent as a child, and couldn't help but recall her past.
Because of the rules of the Holy Grail, most of her memories were blocked, but even so, Miyu still clearly remembered that she had been imprisoned in the house for countless years for various reasons and had never taken a step out.
She still remembered the loneliness and loss brought by long-term confinement.
It was for this reason that Miyu understood how pitiful Irisviel's feelings were.
She squeezed her hand, and when Irisviel lowered her head in confusion, Miyu stood on tiptoe and pecked her face gently.
"Let's go play, Irisviel."
Although she didn't know why she did this, Miyu always felt that she seemed to have wanted to do this a long time ago.
"!!!" Irisviel widened her eyes silently, and soon covered her mouth and laughed, "Well! Where do you want to go, Miyu?"
Miyu thought for a moment, and looked at Sakutsuki who was walking side by side with Saber behind her. Looking at their dark suits that complemented each other, she pouted with some dissatisfaction:
"First, let's go to the clothing store."
After a while, Sakutsuki, who changed out of the suit and put on a kimono, walked out with Miyu who was also wearing a kimono. Looking at Saber who looked confused and Irisviel who was covering her mouth and laughing, she always felt that something was wrong.
Is there anything wrong with the suit before?
And the next moment, the expressions of everyone present changed.
