Emiya Shirou finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Anno walking towards him.
Although he was considered an acquaintance, Tohsaka Rin was the master of the enemy after all... After understanding the nature of the Holy Grail War, Shirou still felt that he should have a basic sense of vigilance.
Therefore, when Tohsaka Rin found him, he notified Annuo through the contract.
If the Servant is by my side... I can at least feel more at ease.
Rin Tosaka seemed to have narrowed his eyes because he saw Annuo coming over.
This kind of momentum...it seems like he is no ordinary person.
Archer, standing next to him, wearing a simple black top and pretending to be an ordinary young man, looked at Annuo with a somewhat complicated expression.
As for where this complexity comes from...that is unknown.
An Nuo looked towards Archer, but Archer turned his back and stopped looking at An Nuo.
"So, this one is your servant? It turns out you summoned Saber."
Tohsaka Rin looked Annuo up and down.
"Although I am extremely unqualified from the master's level, my luck seems to be extremely good..."
Tohsaka Rin was somewhat unhappy.
Although there is no doubt that Archer is a reliable companion...but in terms of the intensity of frontal combat and the sense of security he gives people, the servants of Saber's job agency are indeed better.
After all, judging from the previous Holy Grail Wars, Saber should be the strongest Servant unit.
Although this is indeed a coincidence...
"I don't deny this, but can you please not say it so openly..."
Shirou expressed helplessness about this matter.
No matter how much of a magician you are, you can still tell that I'm a dabbler...
"So? What are you calling me for? I'm different from you. I have to get as many homework points as possible."
Shirou raised his head, looked at Tohsaka Rin and said.
"...This place is not suitable for talking. Come to church with me."
"Since you participated in this Holy Grail War, you should also know that the church is an absolutely safe and neutral area. I will not ambush you in that kind of place."
Tohsaka Rin turned around and walked ahead as he spoke.
"...Saber, let's go."
After thinking for a moment, Emiya Shirou sighed.
What else can be done?
Follow me...
"Don't worry, Shirou."
Annuo nodded slightly.
"I will follow you and protect your safety at all times."
...
"Brother, sister sent a message. It seems that she wants us... to go to Fuyuki Church. Should we go?"
Matou Sakura took the phone in her hand and found Matou Shinji who was busy.
Snap.
Two liquid gems sealed by a solid exterior appeared in Sakura's hands.
"I need to study some additional things, Sakura, you and Ancestor-sama can go together, I won't go."
"If I'm at home, I can also strengthen the magic position here to avoid the situation last time."
Matou Shinji looks really busy.
"Is that so? I'll leave it to you, brother."
Sakura swallowed and nodded.
Brother Shinji, it seems that he was greatly affected by what he said yesterday...
"Then, let's set off."
"Well, I won't bother you over there. If anything necessary happens, just come back and tell me."
Shinji waved his hand as he spoke.
On the other side, in Fuyuki Church...
"I brought someone here. It's true... I originally planned to go find Xiaoying at noon, but in the end, all the time was wasted on the road."
Sitting in a random position, Tohsaka Rin curled his lips.
"Thank you for your hard work, Rin, then... Emiya Shirou, we meet again."
Kotomine Kirei turned around and looked at Emiya Shirou.
"Huh? So Mr. Kotomine is looking for me?"
Emiya Shirou was obviously a little surprised.
"It's about this Holy Grail War. You should have received the news that the Holy Grail War is completely suspended."
Kotomine Kirei walked not far to the side of Emiya Shirou and sat down.
"Ah? Pause? When?"
Is there such a thing?
Emiya Shirou looked confused.
"...Also, you haven't established the ability to use your familiar to receive messages, so it makes sense that you don't know."
"Anyway, before we start the conversation, please take a look at this photo."
Kotomine Kirei took out the photos of Yanagi Kazunari and Tanba Momoyo from his pocket and placed them in front of Emiya Shirou.
"This is Issei... I seem to have an impression of this girl...?"
"Do you have any impression?"
Tohsaka Rin came over.
"When did you meet her?"
"About noon two days ago, this girl came over to deliver food to Issei... What's wrong? Could it be related to the Holy Grail War?"
Emiya Shirou finally reflected on this matter.
"Let me explain the details, senior."
"This matter...is indeed related to the Holy Grail War."
The sound came from the door of the church.
If this voice...
"Sakura...?"
Emiya Shirou looked at the familiar figure and blinked.
...
"Things are almost like this."
"Because of such a vicious incident, the Holy Grail War is currently on hold, and the mutual conquests between the Servants have also been stopped. It is estimated that the Holy Grail War will not restart until this incident is resolved."
Sakura told Shirou Emiya the complete investigation of the past two days, and also explained the suspension of the Holy Grail War.
"This photo is the image the other party left before fighting my allies."
Kotomine Kirei made the final addition to this matter.
Emiya Shirou's hand holding the photo seemed to be a little hard, and even the veins on the back of his hand were visible to the naked eye.
Putting down the photo, he stood up without saying a word and wanted to walk outside the church.
"Idiot! What are you going to do!?"
Tohsaka Rin had quick eyes and quick hands and grabbed Emiya Shirou's sleeve.
"It's strange that you ask this question. Isn't it obvious?"
There was a hint of anger in Emiya Shirou's expression.
"Go and rescue that Issei guy... from the hands of that servant?"
"Compared with the idle discussion here... isn't the most important thing now, the safety of Yi Cheng? The other party is a vicious servant who killed the Master!"
Emiya Shirou said loudly.
"you......"
Tohsaka Rin didn't know what to say for a moment.
Why haven't I noticed that this guy is so...brave?
"senior......"
Sakura held her heart in her hands, looking a little at a loss.
