Looking back, this is my third time climbing this mountain.()()

As I climbed up the long hallway, I climbed alone and thought.

The first time, I was anxiously worried about Saber's safety in such a deep dark night.

The second time, I walked together with Saber with my shoulders and trust.

And this time, the girl holding the sword once again left me willfully and faced the powerful enemy alone.

No, I can't describe her as willfulness. I am the only one who is truly willful.

I want to protect her willfully and to be with her willfully.

I don’t know when it started, but my eyes began to be inseparable from her.

Looking up at the long and twisted Sendo, I couldn't help but smile bitterly.

——The body is now broken.

I don't know why, I have this illusion.

It seemed like something suddenly broke in the long dream last night, and the original idea became difficult.

——I want to be a partner of justice.

I always think of saber.

——I want to save everyone.

At least we must save Saber first.

Contradictory thoughts have been tormenting the nerves. If they continue to analyze them, they will no longer exist.

So only by relying on the current obsession - saving saber.

Walking through the cold wind in the dark night, I kept my energy and moved forward slowly.

Now, only saber can save me.

So, I can only save Saber willfully.

Indulge yourself willfully until it breaks down.

~~~~~~~ World~~ Need~~ Divide~~ Line~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

No matter how long the Hallao is, it will end.

Once again, I came to the gate of the temple. The cold wind blew from afar, and no ancient warriors appeared in the lonely mountain gate.

In the time I didn't know, that person had lost to the eighth master, and the hero who adhered to the Bushido died silently in a blink of an eye. ()

Only this empty mountain gate and a quiet temple were left.

Restraining my uneasy heart, I rested for a short while, raised my feet and prepared to continue moving forward.

"No need to leave anymore, boy, they are not here."

Suddenly, a voice appeared in front of him, the bloody red spear gently swung and restrained its sharpness, and the servant in the blue battle suit walked down the mountain gate calmly.

The person who appeared was lancer.

"Lancer, why are you here?"

No need to be afraid, I calmly looked at the killer who had pierced my heart.

"What a timid boy, do you forget that my job is to reconnaissance?"

The spear drew an arc in the void and landed lightly on the master's shoulder. Lancer looked into my eyes without hiding his curiosity.

"I'll ask you first, since your saber is fighting alone, why do you have to come out too?"

"As a master, I naturally have to fight side by side with the server."

"Well, what an amazing idiot, I blatantly tell everyone to come and kill me-!"

The enemy's voice was still leisurely, and the inadvertent smile was like a beast with sharp teeth and claws.

Then fight, burn your own life to fight!

The hands were slightly raised to the outside, and the fighting spirit in my heart was about to take shape in my hands.

"Lancer, do you want to fight?"

"Boy, do you want to die so confidently? I didn't expect that it would take me a little precious time to see such a brave master."

"You are the Servant of the Holy Grail War and the enemy of Saber. It just so happens that I can reduce the workload of Saber."

The frozen magic power suddenly shattered and surged in my body. The magic circuit was running to strengthen the musculoskeletons of my body. I stood on the steps below and faced the enemies ahead with unprecedented confidence.

This body that failed to save Saber was turning itself into a combat machine, fighting for that girl. ()

A long-lasting wish must be realized this time.

"lancer, my name is Shirou Emiya, you remember-"

"Oh--I'm really ignorant, but--this is exactly the style I like.()"

The surprised lancer dragged his tone long, then changed his voice, and his helpless expression suddenly turned into an appreciative nod.

“…”

"At least it's much better than my current master. However, if we want to fight, we may not be able to catch up with the final battle of Saber. Is that okay?"

“Saber – where is she?”

"This place has not become a battlefield. The battle between saber, archer, caster and illegally summoned master has been gathered. The main battlefield has long been moved there."

The blue servant walked down the mountain gate without any malicious intentions, and his eyes turned to the distant dark night beside me.

I carefully lifted my spirits and looked along Lancer's gaze. It was the forest northwest of Liudong Temple, where Ilia's castle was located.

It seemed that something had been awakened by the lancer. The cold night suddenly became dull. Someone seemed to swallow the fresh breath in the distance. A huge amount of magic power was brewing in the forest. Even the half-toned magician who was far away in Liudong Temple could clearly feel it.

"There are berserkers there, how would they knock down that monster-"

Thinking of the strong enemy Saber is about to face, I couldn't help but feel shocked and angry.

"That's also a question I'm curious about. Now that we have a preliminary consensus, boy-oh, Emiya, are you willing to postpone this battle?"

Is it really for this reason? Lancer is actually asking me sincerely.

"what you up to?"

"Of course I'm going to participate in this battle. Although my mission is to detect, there will be no problem in defeating a few of them."

"You're going to sneak attack them?"

"No, sneak attacks are not my fighting style, but no matter what state of encountering enemies, I can't help it."

Lancer smiled badly.

"Are you worried that I will attack Saber? I have greeted you before every battle."

No matter what, he wanted to take advantage of others' danger, and I gritted my teeth hatefully.

But my speed is absolutely impossible to reach the forest before Lancer, and Saber never brings his cell phone while fighting, so I can only stop him here.

“lancer…”

"Let's do this, Emiya, how about we go there together?"

I could see through my expression at a glance, and lancer suddenly said. ()

"What--?"

"I will take you to the forest, so that you can see Saber first, and then I will decide on my own actions."

"What can you get?"

I was confused. The servant in front of me was so kind, and there was no viciousness at all when I first saw him.

"I get nothing, just do what I want to do."

Lancer shrugged freely.

"In this Holy Grail War, the wish I can be summoned is to fight a good fight. What I pursue is not victory or the Holy Grail. Without being bound by a spell, I am just doing what I want to do."

A faint smile appeared on the blue servant's face, which was the calmness and indifference of a hero who fought for a hundred times.

"Lancer, can you agree to let me leave first when you see Saber?"

"Of course, after seeing Saber, I will ask you to see her first."

"Okay, I agree with your suggestions."

"It's really a shame. I haven't seen such a happy person for a long time."

Lancer laughed happily and reached out to high-high with me.

"Ba"

I calmly retracted my right hand and held my swollen palm tightly.

Fighting with a lancer is a really bad choice.
