But generally speaking, as the advanced AI of the health room, Sakura Matou will not leave the health room at will.
It was also the first time that Toosaka Rin saw Matou Sakura leaving the health room.
"I'm here to see Emiya-senpai--!"
Sakura Matou looked past Toosaka Rin who was in front of her and looked at Emiya Shirou who was standing behind her.
"Sakura, what's going on?"
Hearing Sakura calling him, Emiya Shirou walked forward and asked her.
"No, nothing happened. It's just that Senior didn't receive the healing supplements provided to Master today—"
As she spoke, Sakura Matou slowly took out the things on her back. It was a bento that she had made herself.
"Arigato——!"
Shirou Emiya also nodded and took the slightly heavy lunch box that Sakura Matou handed to him.
Then he watched her leave.
Stare at (each_each)————————
At this time, Toosaka Rin, who was standing behind Emiya Shirou, opened her eyes wide and stared at Emiya Shirou who was watching Matou Sakura leave.
"What did you do to that AI?"
"I didn't do anything—"
Shirou Emiya shook his head honestly. He thought about it carefully and realized that he really didn't do anything to Sakura. The day that kept resetting was also Sakura's own doing.
I just saw Sakura lying on the ground and took her to the infirmary.
He also didn't know why Sakura fell to the ground so weakly at that time.
"Huh? You didn't do anything to her, so why would she come over and give you the lunch box in person!"
Toosaka Rin said that she didn't believe what Emiya Shirou said at all.
Although Sakura's reason was that Emiya Shirou did not go to collect the supplements given to all Masters in the health room, she herself did not go to collect them now.
Why does the advanced AI in the health room only deliver lunch boxes to Shirou Emiya and not to himself?
With such doubts, Toosaka Rin touched her chin, looked at the place where Matou Sakura left, and then looked at Emiya Shirou who seemed to know nothing.
Chapter 555: Decisive Battle
As time flies by, the day of decisive battle has arrived.
Looking at the door that he had been unable to open before and where stood the priest named Kotomine Kirei, Emiya Shirou understood that this might be the passage to the place of the decisive battle.
"Welcome to the decisive battle site. Are you ready?"
With an extremely happy voice, Kotomine Kirei smiled and looked at Emiya Shirou and Matou Shinji who had come here.
The final battle is about to begin.
"There is only one door, and only one team can return to the school building. If you are ready, open the door to the arena."
"Humph, the final winner will only be me!!!"
Pointing at Shirou Emiya, Shinji Matou, who was standing beside him, spoke to Shirou Emiya with great confidence and without hesitation.
"Open the door, Father!!!"
With a surging fighting spirit, Matou Shinji took out his secret code key and placed it on the door.
With a sound like a lock being opened, Matou Shinji pushed open the door to the arena without hesitation.
He mocked Emiya Shirou with an extremely disdainful look.
Emiya Shirou ignored him. It would be more accurate to say that he had long been accustomed to Matou Shinji's attitude.
Whether it is the Shinji Matou here or the Shinji Matou in his own world.
It's just that the character of Shinji Matou in this world doesn't seem to be that bad.
Seeing Shinji Matou stepping into the door, Shirou Emiya took out his code key without hesitation and placed it on the door.
Under Kotomine Kirei's meaningless smile, Emiya Shirou also stepped into the door.
"I thought you were too timid to come in. You don't even have a Servant—"
A confident voice came from the other side of this small space.
That was Shinji Matou who had stepped into the door earlier, and next to him was the Servant he had been fighting with - Francis Drake.
It is easy to feel that this should be the elevator to the final arena, and the surrounding things are constantly rising upwards.
It's not that things are actually moving, it's just that the elevator is constantly going down.
And between Emiya Shirou and Matou Shinji, there seemed to be some kind of barrier, a transparent azure blue wall completely separating the two.
“You will never be able to defeat me. Humph! In order to completely crush you, Rider and I have been fighting in the arena without a break these days—!”
Shinji Matou also complacently told Shirou Emiya about the efforts he had made in the past few days in order to suppress Shirou Emiya.
Whether it is honing his battle with Drake in the arena day after day, or constantly modifying data to obtain treasures from the arena.
After becoming the Asian gaming champion, Shinji Matou hadn't worked so hard to defeat an opponent for a long time.
He himself didn't expect that he would care so much about a stranger he didn't even know.
He obviously didn't need to prove anything, but he still tried his best.
Shinji Matou was like a little child who wanted to get something, and kept explaining his efforts of these days to Shirou Emiya.
Shirou Emiya did not refute what Shinji Matou said, nor did he say anything harsh to Shinji Matou for his attitude. Instead, he listened quietly to everything he said.
“My Rider and I are the strongest. This is a battle you can never win. It’s best to give up as soon as possible—!”
Shinji Matou glanced at Drake standing behind him, pointed at Shirou Emiya, and declared his victory with great confidence.
Although Emiya Shirou seemed to have heard such words before.
However, this time was obviously completely different from before.
This time, Shinji Matou's tone was calmer and more confident.
If there is any difference.
That previous declaration of victory was his absolute confidence in his own talent.
But this time, he had absolute confidence in his servants.
He believed that his servants could bring him the victory he wanted.
"How will you know if you don't try?"
Facing Matou Shinji who was full of fighting spirit, Emiya Shirou responded to him with his firm eyes.
Nothing is absolute. Shirou Emiya has faced this situation countless times.
"Humph! Just stick to your beliefs. The outcome will be clear in due time. Don't feel sad because you lost to me, because this is inevitable!"
"Right, Rider!"
"Of course, I am your adjutant. I am paid to help others get rid of disasters. Moreover, I will not waste the treasures that you have spent so much energy to collect these days--!"
Drake also responded to Shinji Matou with a hearty laugh.
She truly saw how hard Shinji Matou worked to achieve victory.
Originally, Drake thought that his Master was just an idle, self-centered delinquent.
Although she doesn't care who her Master is, whether he is a villain or a good person, she is just a resolute hedonist.
But after seeing that Shinji Matou was determined to win at all costs, Drake's attitude changed slightly.
Perhaps she didn't expect that a self-centered guy who looked like a gangster could make such an effort for victory.
Whether it is the in-depth exploration of the arena every day to practice the compatibility between oneself and it, or because one needs treasures to enhance strength and constantly uses one's own technology day and night to make the arena emerge with all kinds of treasures.
All of this made Drake feel the desire to win this battle from Shinji Matou's heart.
What's more, Shirou Emiya is also an opponent that she deserves to take seriously.
For some reason, this made her blood boil.
There is nothing more exciting than fighting.
"Use your full strength, magician. Only fighting with all your strength can make people enjoy it!"
Under the influence of Shinji Matou, Drake changed his attitude from before and invited Shirou Emiya to a fight with a strong desire to fight.
Since the second fight, Drake's attitude towards Shirou Emiya has changed.
She did not regard Shirou Emiya as a Master participating in this Holy Grail War, but rather as a Servant who possessed the power to fight against her.
As a staunch hedonist, in addition to money, women, and alcohol, of course he also needs a hearty and life-threatening battle!
Chapter 556: Above the Ocean
The door slowly opened to both sides, revealing the dark space outside that was flashing with thunder.
Similarly, the same scene appeared inside the door next to Matou Shinji.
After a few minutes of conversation, they arrived at the decisive battle site.
The extremely confident Matou Shinji walked out of the door before Emiya Shirou, and Emiya Shirou followed closely behind him.
Just like the space was shifting, the moment Emiya Shirou stepped out, the elevator disappeared from where it was.
The only ones left were Shinji Matou, who was staring into his eyes, and Drake beside him.
At the moment when Emiya Shirou began to observe his surroundings, a dazzling flash of lightning illuminated the sky and the earth.
It was as if a god was holding a sword, wielding it and tearing the entire sky in two.
Immediately afterwards, there was a sound like the collapse of heaven and earth.
"boom------!"
This extremely loud voice was like an order, and heavy rain poured down from the sky at this moment.
The ground beneath my feet also shook.
No, that creaking sound was definitely not from the land. The shaking feeling was more like a sail sailing on the sea.
The waves roared like wild beasts and continuously hit the sails where Shirou Emiya and Shinji Matou were.
The powerful impact caused Shinji Matou, who had just stood firm, to fall to the side again, but Drake pulled him back with a mocking voice.
"Ocean, I have to say you have drawn the best hand, Master—"
Feeling the oncoming storm, Drake couldn't help but let out a very hearty smile.
Such a scene made her think back to her past life. As a captain, Drake had encountered such extreme weather countless times.
As a pirate, as a sailor on the sea, the biggest enemy is not other sailors, nor is it other pirates.
It’s the ocean that is always unpredictable and can turn into a black hole that devours people without leaving any bones behind at any moment.
At sea, she can almost be said to be able to fully exert all her strength.
“Since we have such a unique advantage, we must go all out to defeat the enemy in front of us—!”
Shinji also quickly adjusted his body and stabilized himself on the extremely shaking deck, looking at Emiya Shirou with eyes full of fighting spirit.
"Of course, as a pirate, whether it's life, bullets, or treasure, you have to use as much as you can to be considered happy. Only by fighting with all your might can you have a good time."
"So, prepare to go bankrupt, Master——!"
With a hearty smile, under the roaring thunder, two flintlock rifles quickly appeared in Drake's hands, and he looked at Emiya Shirou with the same fighting spirit as Matou Shinji.
Shirou Emiya also responded to the fighting spirit shown to him by Shinji Matou and Drake, and a pair of guns, one black and one white, appeared in his hands.
A strong wind blew in from the distant sky, sweeping across the ship's sails and making them rustle.
The surging waves kept hitting the side of the sail from one side.
Angry thunderbolts struck down from the sky one after another, like golden spears thrown down into the ocean.
On the deck, Emiya Shirou and Drake stood facing each other.
