Sakura Matou doesn't know what happened to Shirou Emiya, but as an advanced AI responsible for the health of all masters, she thinks it is necessary to continue the investigation, although there may be some selfish motives involved.
"Is that so? Then I'll go to the infirmary to visit Emiya-kun later." Leo said in a tone that did not allow for rejection on the radio.
"But, Senior Emiya is still very weak now--!" Sakura Matou looked at the broadcast with some excitement.
"I'm very sorry, we don't have that kind of flexibility. The situation is urgent." Obviously, Leo seemed very heartless, but it also represented another thing, that is, the situation is indeed urgent at this stage.
Otherwise, Leo would not have set off immediately as soon as Shirou Emiya woke up.
"No, I'll go to your side--!" Shirou Emiya stood up and responded to Leo towards the broadcasting location.
"The Emiya Shirou I know is not the type who would stay quietly in the original bowl. Even if I don't say anything, he will stand up without hesitation--"
As if he had heard his own answer, Shirou Emiya could clearly hear a hint of smile in Leo's words, as if he had already anticipated his choice.
"Senior——!" Sakura Matou looked at Shirou Emiya with some concern.
"Don't worry, I know my physical condition well, and I won't try to be brave."
Having said that, Emiya Shirou has been trying to be strong all the time. His intention is good, but this makes people more worried.
Whether it was Sakura Matou who was far away in another world, Fuyuki, or Sakura Matou who was standing in front of him now, they both easily discovered Emiya Shirou's lies.
"I understand. Leo-kun is waiting for you at the student union. It's in the classroom on the left at the back of the second floor." Sakura Matou also put away her worried look and pointed out the location of the student union to Shirou Emiya.
Just like Emiya Shirou doesn't want Sakura to worry, Matou Sakura doesn't want Emiya Shirou to worry about her.
"Also, Miss Jeanne is in the classroom on the right after you go up to the second floor. Remember to meet with Miss Jeanne. If you misremembered Miss Jeanne's job, you should confirm your Servant's status carefully."
Emiya Shirou nodded, and under the gaze of Matou Sakura, left the health room.
"Senior——!" Looking at Emiya Shirou's departing back, Matou Sakura once again showed a worried look and muttered to herself.
When you push open the door of the health room, sunlight shines in through the wooden mesh windows.
The entire floor and walls are made of wood, and they make a creaking sound if you step on them lightly.
A slight cloud of smoke will also rise from the floor.
It can be clearly judged that this school seems to have been abandoned for quite a long time.
But even so, this place still exudes an antique flavor, especially under the golden sunlight, the entire corridor looks extremely quaint.
Old-fashioned yet still charming.
In fact, Emiya Shirou felt that this place was not much different from the mansion where he lived.
I just want to say that because I take good care of my house, it still stands here today.
Seeing the sunlight shining through the window, Emiya Shirou thought he had returned to the dojo in the mansion.
After all, he had been training there before and often practiced sparring with Sister Fuji, but he was always the one who failed in the end.
The only surprising thing in such a corridor is the extremely modern convenience store at the entrance of the stairs.
Likewise, inside this small shop stood a more surprising presence.
But it didn't seem that surprising, because Shirou Emiya had also seen such a scene before.
"Hey, Emiya-san, you finally woke up—"
The joyful voice instantly penetrated Emiya Shirou's mind like thunder.
"Father Kotomine——? What are you doing here again?"
"Huh, you look like you don't agree with me. I can understand how you feel at this moment. After all, I feel the same way."
When Kotomine Kirei heard Emiya Shirou's question, he just smiled slightly and explained to Emiya Shirou in a happy voice.
"Not only you masters, we NPCs were also involved in this disaster. At that time, my original position was also rewritten. Now I am just an ordinary store clerk."
Listening to his explanation and looking at the tall and majestic Kotomine Kirei in his church robe, the corners of Emiya Shirou's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
So was this the reason why I was able to see Kotomine Kirei in the store at that time?
It's really a laugh and cry thing.
Shirou Emiya only hoped that there would be no mapo tofu among the products.
Because he had tried it once before, and that was the first time he didn't even dare to taste it before making and packaging it.
From that moment on, Shirou Emiya decided to stay away from mapo tofu.
pity,------
"Mapo Tofu, I think someone mentioned the new product in the store, was it you? Emiya-san, I didn't expect that we would be so in sync--!"
I don’t know if it was because his obsession with Mapo Tofu was too deep, or because he secretly used his authority as an advanced AI, but he seemed to have heard Shirou Emiya’s thoughts.
It should be said that he heard Shirou Emiya's inner call for mapo tofu.
"!!!???"
Before Emiya Shirou could even open his mouth to speak, a bowl of steaming mapo tofu was brought out from behind by Kotomine Kirei.
Wasn't this really something he made using his authority? Clearly, there was no equipment in the store that could make Mapo Tofu.
Looking at the bright red coat that spread all around like lava erupting, Emiya Shirou couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
At this moment, it seemed as if a voice spoke in his ear.
"Hey, it's hell ahead."
Chapter 684 Become the Spear in My Hand
In the end, Shirou Emiya escaped the punishment of Mapo Tofu.
Shirou Emiya didn't run away directly, but refused by saying that Leo was looking for him for something.
At this time, Kirei Rinfeng also showed a look of regret and put away the Mapo Tofu.
"It's so hard! Why is it getting even harder!!!"
Before he even opened the door, Emiya Shirou heard a distressed voice coming from inside.
In such a quiet classroom, a young girl with braided blonde hair hanging down behind her like a ponytail was sitting in her seat, looking at the textbook in front of her with a puzzled look on her face.
The pen in my hand was shaking constantly.
Joan of Arc.
At this moment, she was no longer as dashing as when Emiya Shirou first saw her, wearing armor and holding a flag.
Joan of Arc, who was sitting in the classroom holding a math textbook and studying the problems in it, was like a high school girl, slightly tilting her head and thinking about the problems in the textbook at high speed.
But even if we say that she has transformed into a girl in terms of temperament, just from her back, one can still feel her extraordinary figure and the charm and beauty that she carries.
As if she heard the sound of the door opening, Joan of Arc stopped what she was doing, turned her head slightly, and looked over with some joy.
“Emiya-kun—!”
At this moment, Jeanne's data also entered Emiya Shirou's eyes.
Real name: Joan of Arc
Occupation: Lancer
Attributes: Order and Good
Ability Value——————
Muscle strength: C (B)
Durability: C (B)
Agility: B (A)
Magic: C (B)
Lucky: D (C)
Noble Phantasm: A++
"Ruler, how on earth did you get here?"
Although Jeanne's current job is Lancer, and Emiya Shirou did see that Jeanne's job is Lancer, he still habitually calls her Ruler, as if Ruler is Jeanne's exclusive title.
This could perhaps be considered a bad habit of Emiya Shirou.
"Well, because of various things--" Joan of Arc was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
She had thought that Shirou Emiya would definitely ask this question, but until now Jeanne had not figured out how to put it.
In fact, Jeanne started out with the intention of rescuing Shirou Emiya from the Holy Grail.
She didn't want Shirou Emiya to sacrifice himself, nor did she want him to bear such a heavy responsibility.
It’s just that without realizing it, I have been chasing you for such a long distance and for such a long time.
Joan of Arc didn't understand why she was so persistent, but since she was already persistent, she might as well stick to it to the end.
But when faced with Shirou Emiya's question, she still didn't know how to answer.
"It's okay if Ruler doesn't want to talk about it. I just have some questions. It's not a big deal."
Looking at the hesitant Jeanne, Shirou Emiya did not force her over. What he was going to say was just an insignificant matter. Jeanne had already come, and that was enough.
At least, she had come here with great difficulty, and I shouldn't face her with a questioning attitude.
"No, it's okay, I just haven't thought about how to put it. It's not a very important thing." Joan of Arc also waved her hands quickly. It's not that she didn't want to say it, but she really didn't think about how to put it.
"But Ruler, why did your job become Lancer when you got here?"
Shirou Emiya had more than just a few doubts, but if Jeanne didn't intend to say it, he wouldn't ask her until she got to the bottom of it.
"Because there is another me in ——"
At this point, Jeanne sighed.
In fact, to put it simply, there is another Jeanne in whose job is Ruler, but she cannot appear in the world as Ruler.
But she has no way of giving up her current body as a Servant with the Ruler class.
Because this would immediately cut off the already weak connection, so for her to find Emiya Shirou would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
What's more, there is Mooncell's obstruction.
So after a long confrontation with Mooncell, the two sides finally reached a compromise.
Mooncell provided Jeanne with Lancer's spiritual foundation, and Jeanne provided her chaotic records.
However, the only difference between her experience and that of Joan of Arc in this world is that she experienced a Holy Grail War.
Because of this, she lost the EX-level magic resistance that only Ruler had.
However, it did not have a particularly big impact on her in combat, because Joan of Arc used her own flag as a gun.
After being transformed into a Lancer spirit base, the weapon form did not change much.
Of course, it's not that there are no changes. After the spiritual base transformation, Jeanne's inherent skills and treasures also underwent some changes.
“Emiya-kun—!”
Suddenly, Jeanne's expression became extremely serious and she looked straight at Emiya Shirou.
"I am still very sorry for what happened before. If it weren't for me, perhaps you would be able to have an easier time during this Holy Grail War."
"I already said I don't care about this matter--"
"This is a mistake I made, and I must bear the corresponding punishment for it. If it weren't for the fact that Emiya-kun himself is extremely reliable, he might have died here because of me. I absolutely cannot forgive myself for making such a mistake!"
Looking at Jeanne's extremely serious eyes, Emiya Shirou's heart sank slightly, and then he revealed the only remaining Command Seal on the back of his hand and pointed it at Jeanne.
At this moment, looking at Shirou Emiya who seemed to be equally serious, Jeanne also became a little nervous. She couldn't help but close her eyes tightly, waiting for Shirou Emiya to speak.
"Then as punishment, Ruler——————!"
A harsh voice sounded at this moment, as if Emiya Shirou really intended to punish Jeanne d'Arc.
"boom--!"
All that could be heard was a crisp collision sound in the quiet classroom.
"it hurts--!"
