Merlin said that he can only be defeated by time, but what is the reality?
So in the end, he could only wish for long-term peace and stability in Britain. As for the form...who knows.
Is it the long-lasting peace and tranquility under King Arthur, or the long-lasting peace and tranquility under King Anno?
Annuo himself couldn't figure it out.
But at least, this wish did not deceive his own heart, and that was enough.
"Although my wish was granted,...perhaps because of my own stubbornness, Britain has perished, perished on Kamlan."
"So Shirou, you don't need to care about my wishes. You should think more about how to persuade other masters and servants."
"......I see."
Shirou cast a grateful look at Annuo.
Liu Dongyi Cheng, who was silent on the side, was a little confused.
How to say this...
It's quite magical.
And because it's real, it's even more magical.
He had seen Annuo wearing white armor, holding a shining holy sword in his hand, and killing a drunken boy with one blow. Judging from the fact that the Holy Grail War actually happened, the person in front of him should...
It’s really Anno, the Knight of the Round Table in the legend of King Arthur.
The king who has been loyal to the Kingdom of Camelot for two generations, the master of the Round Table, and the white wall of Britain - Anno.
There are seven such people in total... although one of them is dead now.
Ah no, according to the terminology of the Holy Grail War, it should be [exit].
"There's no problem with Sakura and Caster. I've said this before. Now it's mainly about other people..."
Emiya Shirou took out a notebook from his pocket.
"First of all, Sister Jie and Mr. Xiang An... Well, they actually give me a somewhat strange feeling. They clearly say they want to be my enemy, but in fact they come to me every day to get a meal...
....”
Emiya Shirou didn't know exactly what the hostility in the Holy Grail War should be like, but at least no matter what, it shouldn't be like just having fun every day.
"Is that tall man's name Xiang An?"
Liudong Yisheng helped his eyes.
Xiang An... is another familiar name. During the period of struggle between Chu and Han between Qin and Han, he was a quite famous hero.
Although the final ending is not very good.
But precisely because of the bad ending, his fame became even greater.
"Except Sister Akuzu... that's over at Tohsaka. I don't know the real name of that servant, but judging from the way he looked at me, I always felt that he looked at me very unhappy. I don't know if that's the case.
illusion."
Emiya Shirou looked a little troubled, sighed, and turned another page.
"In addition to the above-mentioned Caster group, Rider group, and Archer group, the one that is still in our intelligence is the Berserker group. This is also the group that I find most troublesome."
Emiya Shirou still felt a little frightened when he thought about the battle that took place in the back mountain that day.
If the other party hadn't let him go, he would have been dead by now if he was unconscious, and Annuo, who was lacking in magic power...if he was a master who had completely murderous intentions.
What is going on with that girl?
Annuo glanced at Shirou, with complexity and pain in his eyes.
That kid...
Illyasviel von Einzbern.
Yes... Emiya Kiritsugu, the biological daughter of Emiya Shirou's adoptive father. If converted, she is Emiya Shirou's older sister or younger sister.
The child seemed to have changed little from the last time I saw her.
What happened in the meantime...didn't Kiritsugu go to Germany to find Illya before his death?
Now Illya has shown her face. Although there is no special expression, judging from her attitude, she seems to have great malice towards Emiya Shirou, but she does not seem to want to let Emiya Shirou die easily.
Something terrible must have happened...otherwise, how could that gentle and lovely girl show such cruelty and hatred?
"As for Berserker, maybe I have a way, Shirou."
With so many thoughts on his mind, Annuo took a deep breath, raised his head and looked at Shirou and said.
"Huh? Mr. Annuo has something to do?"
Emiya Shirou was a little surprised.
"Um."
"I... met the master of Berserker, the white-haired girl, during the last Holy Grail War."
Annuo still hasn't told the truth.
He didn't know what kind of impulsive young man Shirou Emiya would do after he told the truth. The most important thing now was to find out what happened to Illya, and then Anno would consider it again.
Should I tell Shirou Emiya about Kiritsugu, Irisviel, and Illya?
This is...the safest choice.
Anno doesn't really want to be a Riddler either.
Shirou...this child really has great righteousness in his heart, but the source of his great righteousness is his adoptive father Emiya Kiritsugu who rescued him from a desperate situation, because he longed for Emiya Kiritsugu to save him.
That smile when he saw Shirou Emiya sincerely wanted to be a partner of justice.
Therefore, justice is not false, but this matter is related to the longing in Emiya Shirou's heart.
People with the right intentions are sometimes the most terrifying people.
Annuo strongly agrees with this.
"Have you seen the girl with white hair?"
Emiya Shirou frowned slightly.
That girl looked like she was in her teens... The last Holy Grail War was ten years ago. If Anno had seen that girl during the last Holy Grail War, would the child still be a baby, right?
"Are you...sure you didn't admit it wrong?"
"You can't admit it. That child was like this ten years ago, and he is still like this now."
An Nuo shook his head and continued.
"Defeat Berserker and find a way to talk to that girl. As long as we can talk to her and remind her of something, we can definitely communicate."
"...Isn't it the same as not saying anything?"
Emiya Shirou's expression was somewhat helpless.
The premise of what Annuo said is [defeating Berserker], this matter...
Judging from the current situation, it is very difficult to handle.
That Berserker's Noble Phantasm is probably not a simple thing, and it also has the ability to regenerate instantly. It is definitely a very difficult opponent. If it is Annuo under normal circumstances, he will definitely be able to fight, but the problem is
Now Annuo's magic battery life simply can't keep up.
After all, it's still your own problem...
"Shirou, sometimes it is a good choice to gain an ally."
An Nuo felt that this child was somewhat stupid.
"Huh? Ah, you mean...?"
Emiya Shirou's eyes lit up.
Caster...does the servant of this job agency have a lot of magic power?
