Mashu looked around and confirmed again before returning to Ritsuka and reported: "Master, confirm that all enemy reactions have been eliminated!"

"Well done!" Lixiang held Mashu's hand and praised happily, "Look, as long as you believe in yourself, you can do it!"

Matthew looked at Ritsuka's crooked eyebrows, and a warm current slowly flowed through his heart. The slight frustration and uneasiness that was still in his heart disappeared in an instant. Matthew turned his attention to the director, and Olga Marie also

There are no stingy words of praise: "Well done!"

After receiving the recognition from his seniors and director, although there was no joy on Ma Xiu's face, he could clearly feel that Ma Xiu's originally frivolous temperament instantly calmed down.

When Arthur saw Matthew's transformation, he knew that she had found confidence, so her whole person became clearer.

If we say that the Matthew that Arthur originally saw, although she had the power of a servant, she still had a kind of "cowardice" that was almost inferior to herself. When faced with a dangerous situation, she would not let go of herself.

Self-identification, thinking about 'can I do it', 'can I do it', 'can I do it' and other thoughts of self-doubt.

However, after getting approval from Ritsuka and Olga Marie, she seemed to have a focus and no longer hesitated.

After getting approval from Ritsuka and the director, Mashu didn't know why, but looked at Arthur expectantly.

Naturally, Arthur did not hesitate to praise: "Matthew, you did a good job!"

After hearing Arthur's praise, Matthew felt inexplicably very happy. It seemed that what she wanted more than Ritsuka's approval was Arthur's personal praise.

"However, what you have done now is far from enough." After the compliment, Arthur changed the topic and warned Matthew, "Now you have only used your strengths, and there is still a long way to go in the future.

Don’t be complacent because of the results you have achieved so far.”

"Elementary shield soldiers use their defensive skills to resist enemy attacks; advanced shield soldiers can resist various disadvantages. But... these are not the highest level of shield soldiers.

The highest level of a shield soldier is a step further than 'defense', a 'guardian' against all disasters, who can firmly protect the people and things you love, and protect the hope you love deeply!"

Because of Arthur's warning, Matthew's originally happy expression gradually calmed down, and she listened carefully to Arthur's words.

Seeing Matthew's serious expression, Arthur smiled slightly and slowly told the story of a certain servant.

"In the endless history of pan-humanity, there was an extremely outstanding servant. The shield she held in her hand was transformed from the thought of 'protection' in her heart. The shield she held had the ability to protect as long as the thought of 'protection' in her heart

Her heart has never wavered, even in the face of an attack that could penetrate the planet, her protection has never wavered, even if she has been burned to ashes by the attack, her protective wall has never collapsed."

"Is it a lie?" Olga Marie couldn't believe it, "How could such a servant exist?"

"No!" Arthur shook his head and explained seriously, "In fact, there does exist such a heroic spirit, and her Noble Phantasm is the crystallization of the concept of 'guarding'. Theoretically speaking, as long as her heart remains unshakable,

, that kind of protective power can approach infinity.”

Matthew's heart was swaying when he heard what Arthur said, and he couldn't help but feel infinite yearning.

"That is the pinnacle of all shield soldiers. All servants with shield soldier qualifications can become that kind of existence, but throughout the ages, she is the only one who has reached that level. Do you know why?"

"Why?" Mashu asked subconsciously.

"Because, most of the other shield soldiers do not have that kind of unswerving thought of protection in their hearts. They are more inclined to attack than to protect. Therefore, in the entire history of mankind, she is the only one who has reached the highest peak.

!”

Listening to everything Arthur said, Matthew couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

This example touched her very deeply, especially after hearing that the servant had a protective power that could withstand an attack that could penetrate the planet. Mashu secretly felt a sense of that protective power in his heart.

eager.

In the following time, Matthew kept thinking about what Arthur said, and a certain idea in his heart became more and more determined.

The changes on Mashu’s side will be put aside for now.

Since the successful elimination of Medusa and Heralex, the Holy Grail War at this singularity is coming to an end.

Right now, in the entire city, excluding outsiders Arthur and Matthew, there are only three remaining servants. They are Saber Knight King, Archer Emiya Shirou and Caster Cu Chulainn. As long as

Once the King of Knights and Shirou Emiya are eliminated, this Holy Grail War will come to an end.

However, before the final attack, Arthur did not immediately go to Mount Enzo. Instead, he asked Ritsuka and Mashu to go to the city together to clean up the skeletal monsters wandering in the city.

"Why do you do this?" Olga Marie was puzzled. "After the singularity is repaired, those skeletal monsters will naturally disappear. Why do you have to let Ritsuka expend effort to clean up those miscellaneous soldiers?"

While using magic to open the door of the villa in front of him, Arthur said: "The 'fighting spirit' I taught Ritsuka-chan must be in battle to achieve rapid growth. I asked her to clean up those miscellaneous soldiers now, also for the sake of

Exercise her."

"Is that so?" Olga Marie didn't understand the mystery of fighting spirit, so she could only temporarily believe Arthur's words.

Seeing Arthur unlocking the magic lock on the door very smoothly, Olga Marie was full of doubts: "You are so smooth in unlocking the magic lock? Besides, this is not your home, right? Why are you here?"

Here?" As she said that, Olga Marie looked at Arthur with suspicious eyes.

Arthur, who was misunderstood by Olga Marie, had to explain this: "If you have investigated the Holy Grail War, you should know that this is the Tohsaka family of the three royal families in the Holy Grail War."

"It turns out to be the Tosaka family's mansion?" Olga Marie glanced at the house number on the doorpost next to her. After confirming Arthur's words, she couldn't help but be surprised, "Then, why did you break into the Tosaka family?"

"I came here because the master who summoned me is a descendant of the Tosaka family." Arthur revealed nonchalantly, "There may be some items belonging to the Tosaka family preserved here, so I came to take a look."

"Is that so?" Olga Marie was not satisfied with this answer and still looked at Arthur suspiciously.
