The ambiguous meaning and gaze regained their outline, and Emiya Shirou was awakened by a voice that sounded like she missed him very much.
Then he slowly lifted his heavy eyelids————
Shirou Emiya looked around slightly, and a very familiar scenery appeared before his eyes.
That was the health room in Tsukiumihara Academy where he stayed longer than his own private room.
The pure white quilt was covering his body.
The IV bottle on the side was hanging very steadily on the ceiling.
But the surrounding walls and interior decorations were very different from the health room in Emiya Shirou's memory.
If we were to make an analogy, the health room here is even more outdated.
And the person who was responsible for the health of all Masters and always stayed in the infirmary was standing beside Shirou Emiya's bed and peeking at Shirou's condition.
"Sakura, thank you—"
Emiya Shirou slightly propped up his still weak body and thanked Sakura who was standing beside him.
Although I didn't know what happened, but from the words I heard when my consciousness gradually regained, I thought Sakura had been watching me.
"------!"
However, Sakura acted as if she didn't hear anything. She still stood there, staring at Emiya Shirou's face, as if there was something on it.
"Sakura? Is there something on my face?"
Seeing Sakura not responding and seeming dazed, Emiya Shirou felt strange and reached out his hand to touch her face.
"Ah! No, there's nothing on Senpai's face!"
Sakura Matou seemed very flustered. Looking at Shirou Emiya who was touching his face as if he didn't know what was going on, she spoke quickly.
Her face was slightly red like an apple.
"I don't really know what's going on, but once I hear your voice, I feel very relieved—"
Sakura Matou placed her hand on her heart, exhaled lightly, and explained to Shirou Emiya.
She also didn't understand why she had to explain her behavior in this way.
Is there any other meaning in such words?
Thinking of this, Sakura Matou's face became even redder and her head tilted slightly downwards.
"Maybe it's because you seem to have been through too much, which makes people feel even more heartbroken."
As she spoke, Matou Sakura also showed a worried look.
After all, she has been monitoring Shirou Emiya's physical condition, and she knows very well that it is a miracle that Shirou Emiya can survive until now.
It can be understood that at this moment, Shirou Emiya is like a piece of ceramic that has just been put together. It will shatter easily with just the slightest touch.
For some reason, when Sakura Matou saw Shirou Emiya sweating profusely due to the pain while in a coma, her heart was deeply entangled.
"It's okay, don't worry about me too much. But Ying, have you been staying in the infirmary all this time?"
In response to Matou Sakura's worry, Emiya Shirou just said something to make her less worried, and then asked about Sakura's current situation.
"Hey! Me, me?"
Sakura Matou was obviously extremely surprised by Shirou Emiya's sudden question, because no one would ever ask about themselves first after waking up.
It should be said that all the awakened people know that Sakura Matou is the advanced AI responsible for managing the Master, and waking them up is Sakura Matou's responsibility, and this is the program she set up.
Even if they express their gratitude, they will not show any concern.
It’s like downloading a game on your computer. After it’s finished, you may be thanked, but you won’t ask how you did.
Although Sakura Matou looks like an ordinary person, those people know one thing: AI has no emotions.
Only Emiya Shirou has never used Sakura Matou as AI on the spot. No matter in the past or now, he has always treated her as a living person.
Chapter 682 The Only Person Who Can Remember
"After all, many Masters are unconscious like you before. As a senior AI responsible for managing the health of the Masters, I have to take care of them here all the time. You should be the last one to wake up."
"Is that so? Thank you for your hard work, Sakura."
Seeing Sakura suddenly looking a little flustered, Emiya Shirou couldn't help but smile and thanked Sakura once again.
And Sakura didn't know why, but she also smiled as she looked at Emiya Shirou who seemed to be more energetic.
No one broke the silence, and the two just stared at each other in this somewhat shabby health room.
Until Shirou Emiya felt that his body's strength had recovered a little.
"Senior, be careful."
Sakura Matou reacted quickly and stepped forward, walked to Shirou Emiya's side and helped him off the bed.
Although his consciousness has just returned to his body and his reaction is still slow, it won't be long before he returns to normal.
Shirou Emiya only needed help from Sakura Matou when he stood up, and he was able to walk normally after that.
"Sakura, do you know what happened?"
Since those masters have fallen into a coma, it is obvious that advanced AIs like Sakura with certain authority know better than them what happened during the Fifth Battle.
"Senior, your doubts are understandable, but before that, I need to confirm one thing—"
As she spoke, Sakura Matou picked up a book that looked like a medical record and sat down at the desk, motioning for Shirou Emiya to sit opposite her.
"Do you know who you are?"
As if to test whether Shirou Emiya's consciousness was normal, Sakura Matou began to ask Shirou Emiya about his understanding of this world.
However------
"Although what you said is not wrong, that was the explanation of magicians before magic was cut off. Now magicians are special hackers who can infiltrate electronic networks with their minds and personalities."
"Hmm? Senior, don't you know what year it is now? Is it that your brain waves haven't matched correctly yet? Or is it that your memory is more severely damaged than others, and you can't remember more things."
While recording, Matou Sakura looked at Emiya Shirou with a worried expression.
In response to this, Shirou Emiya could only smile bitterly, because he really didn't know these things, the basic common sense of magicians in this world.
If you were talking about testing Shirou Emiya's knowledge of traditional magicians, he would understand it very well, because in order to test whether Shirou Emiya really heard it, Toosaka Rin even made a special test to test Shirou Emiya.
Toosaka Rin discovered Emiya Shirou's weakness, which is exams.
Every time I return to Fuyuki City, I have to stay up all night to study for the exams.
He was really exhausted, so much so that Shirou Emiya was a little scared of taking exams.
"Oh, never mind, Senior, do you still remember your Servant and its job during the Holy Grail War?"
"It should be Jeanne d'Arc. Her job is Ruler, right?"
"?"
"Ruler?"
"Senior, you are talking nonsense, right? Although the Ruler class does exist in the Holy Grail War, it is impossible for the Ruler class to be summoned in this Holy Grail War."
"Besides, Miss Jeanne is a Lancer. Senior, your memory does seem to be more serious than the other Masters. No wonder you have been unconscious the longest."
Sakura Matou sighed and covered her head with the hand holding the pen. In fact, there was no need to ask further questions. She could even mix up some common sense and the job of her own servant during the Holy Grail War.
"The last question is also the most important one."
"Do you remember anything about what happened during the Holy Grail War? Even a little bit."
She no longer had any hope that Emiya Shirou would be able to remember what happened during the Holy Grail War.
Hearing what Matou Sakura said, Emiya Shirou frowned.
"I remember, what's wrong?"
"Sure enough, he is just like the other Masters. His memory is even more confused than other Masters. He can only remember his own name, but can't remember anything from the Holy Grail War."
"Please calm down and listen to me——————"
Just as she was about to continue speaking, Matou Sakura suddenly realized what Emiya Shirou had just said.
"Etc., etc!"
Sakura Matou covered her head, as if she couldn't react, or as if she felt a little unbelievable.
"Can you please say what you just said again?"
"I remember what happened during the previous Holy Grail War."
"But - but -"
Sakura Matou was a little confused. It was obviously a good thing that someone could remember what happened in the Holy Grail War, but why did she find it so incredible?
No, Sakura Matou's eyes suddenly became clear. She suddenly remembered Shirou Emiya's physical condition when she was taking care of him.
Although it has been repaired, it is still scarred.
And even though he had never told her his name, Emiya Shirou was able to call his name very accurately, and in such an intimate way.
She even felt a sense of nostalgia and familiarity when she heard Shirou Emiya address her.
So, what was my relationship with Emiya-kun before?
But now is not the time to think about these things!
Suddenly she felt that her thoughts had drifted to an unknown place, and Sakura Matou blushed slightly before immediately looking at Shirou Emiya with a serious expression.
"Senior, weren't you reset to the initial state at the beginning of the Holy Grail War?"
"Reset? Do you mean the place like the login screen before?"
After all, it is easy to guess that a place similar to a login is the login method of these spirit hackers. Following Sakura Matou's words, Shirou Emiya can immediately understand that it might be a reset.
"Eh! Yes, that was a reset, and all the magicians logged in again, and once again went through a long period of sleep, which caused [Memory Impairment], and they were unable to recall what happened in the previous Holy Grail War. They only have a few impressions."
"Senior, why are you doing this?"
Matou Sakura's direction was very clear, and Emiya Shirou also closed his eyes and thought.
That type, its data cannot be detected because of the influence of unknown objects inside.
Or is it because I didn't come to this spiritual world in a regular way and there is no way to read my own data, so there is no way to reset it.
Both are possible, but Shirou Emiya tends to think that it is the result of two factors working together that prevents him from resetting.
“I don’t really understand the specific reason.”
These were just Shirou Emiya's own guesses. Moreover, speaking them out loud would not help other Masters recover their past memories. Rather than adding to his troubles, it would be better to keep it to himself.
"Is that so? Senior, do you remember when you left the Holy Grail War?"
"Five rounds of battle——!"
At this moment, a pleasant sound came from the radio in the health room.
Chapter 683 Hey, there is hell ahead
"Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!"
Pleasant music came from the radio, followed by a gentle and elegant voice.
"Ms. Matou."
Leo, Shirou Emiya could easily tell who was speaking on the radio.
But it is true that if anyone were to be asked who is capable of leading these unconscious Masters, the first person Shirou Emiya would think of would be Leo.
He is destined to be a king, an ideal saint king. This is not just a compliment from others, but Leo is indeed worthy of such a title.
"Ah, this is the health room. Emiya-senpai has woken up, but his mind and body are still somewhat abnormal—"
After hearing the message from the radio, Sakura Matou immediately stepped forward to report the current situation.
In Sakura Matou's opinion, Shirou Emiya's body was definitely not normal. As for his spirit, he basically did not answer those common sense questions correctly.
What's more, if I have to say it, it's normal here to forget what happened in the Holy Grail War but remember those common sense things.
Emiya Shirou is the opposite. He doesn't know those common sense questions, but he knows what happened in the Holy Grail War, which is quite abnormal.
