Shirou Emiya is challenging FGO

Chapter 10: Clear Succubus (Newbies please read!!!)

10. Clear Succubus
Shirou opened his eyes again.

In fact, his "coma" period did not last long, probably only a few minutes.

When he opened his eyes again, Shirou saw Toosaka Rin who was right next to him.

Judging from the movements and the complex expression of shyness on her face, it seems that after "making up some kind of resolution", she decided to activate the psychic magic repair?
Doesn't her tongue hurt? Even if she has recovery magic, won't she lose too much blood if she keeps doing this?
Shirou didn't know that during the short period of time when he was unconscious, Toosaka Rin and Musashi had an argument over the topic of "Are you a succubus who sucks people's essence?"

The end result is that Toosaka Rin feels like, "How could the person I spent so much effort to save die again? If he can't come back to life, wouldn't I be at a huge loss!?"

I have saved everyone, I have helped everyone, I have come here——

That's probably the mentality.

If we have to talk about favorability or something like that, that would be going too far. After all, no matter what, Toosaka Rin is not that familiar with Shirou at this time. Including Musashi, the friendly attitude of women and girls towards Shirou is mainly due to their own "nice guy mentality".

But. This behavior of 'trying so hard to save a stranger' made Shirou curious.

Shirou was curious.

Why did Toosaka Rin choose to do the same thing as Miss Musashi?

Miss Musashi is a time traveler, an emotional spirit from another world who will do anything she pleases, and she loves fighting, so she will lend a helping hand even if it’s just so she can spar with Shirou in the future.

But what about Toosaka Rin?
Did she treat herself like this because she knew herself? Did she know herself before she lost her memory? Was she someone very important to her before she lost her memory?

What was your relationship with Toosaka Rin before you lost your memory?
What if she mentioned that in the subsequent conversation and Shirou couldn't answer it?
Will she be disappointed in me because of this? Will I hurt her because of this?
——This is the result of Shirou's 'reasoning' at this moment.

Shirou was a little worried: What if the me before I lost my memory was a very important person to her? Then if I show a slightly distant attitude towards her now, it might hurt her, right?
So, Shirou came to the conclusion: The most conservative choice at the moment should be that I should show a slightly more intimate attitude towards Toosaka Rin.

In this way, if the self before he lost his memory really knew her, he would not hurt her, and if Shirou was mistaken, no one would get hurt.

When Toosaka Rin found that Shirou had woken up so quickly, she checked carefully and found that he didn't seem to have been drained of his energy by the 'suicidal Musashi'. She froze there in embarrassment.

Shirou's choice at this time is.
[Shirou doesn't understand why Toosaka Rin tried so hard to save him]

[Suspecting that he might have known Toosaka Rin before he lost his memory, and also because of Toosaka Rin's life-saving grace, Shirou now faces Toosaka Rin's face so close to him. What is his choice?]

[1. Use summoning to obtain Toosaka Rin's memories and see if you are in them, and if you knew her before you lost your memory - perhaps you can use this to understand what kind of person you were in the past]

[2. Keep silent, do nothing for now, honestly confess your amnesia, ask Toosaka Rin if she knows her past self, and then make plans]

【1D2=1】

Shirou in the celestial world seems to be particularly eager for "understanding".

The desire to know others and the desire to understand others.

The 'emptiness' in his heart urged him to become a complete human being.

Use other people’s past to fill the empty void in your own heart.

【Confrontation judgment! 】

[Shirou's 'A up': 1D100=91]

[Tousaka Rin's 'Subconscious (Dodge)': 1D100=12]

Perhaps it was because he suspected that Toosaka Rin knew his past self, and suspected that there was a part of 'himself' in Toosaka Rin's memory.

The emptiness in Shirou's heart drove him especially strongly to take action.

Now it was Miss Musashi's turn to be dumbfounded, and she experienced firsthand what Toosaka Rin felt when she was in a daze not long ago.

Holy shit! There's a cow!
The slow-witted Toosaka Rin was completely unable to react.

Toosaka Rin's first reaction at this time was: "Huh? Is this considered indirect?"

Do you care about this only now?!

[Shirou vs. Tousaka Rin, summoning magic begins]

[Whether you can read the memory accurately requires a successful 'Inspiration Test']

[Difficulty: 75]

[Tousaka Rin's 'inspiration': 1D100=98 (a high degree of compatibility as if it were fate)]

[Shirou's 'Inspiration': 1D100=60 (Why are you so lame at this time?)]

Failed.

Shirou was not able to obtain the expected 'memories related to himself' as expected.

But it doesn't matter, Shirou can see the 'narration', and according to the narration, Toosaka Rin successfully obtained her own 'memory'!
And it was a huge success!
Maybe the memories that Toosaka Rin obtained through 'Spiritual Summons' include those that Shirou can't remember now that he has lost his memory?
So, Shirou looked at Rin Toosaka who was covering her head with a hopeful look.
at the same time.

Toosaka Rin's brain at this moment is experiencing the first-person perspective
Experience Shirou cutting the Hero King.

However, something seems to be wrong. In addition to the memory of what happened not long ago, Toosaka Rin seems to be able to "read" Shirou's memories from a longer time ago, but those memories are hidden in the chaos.
Perhaps it was because Shirou had come into contact with the black mud that was "all the evil in this world" and caused him to lose his memory, so these older memories were in countless scattered fragments. Even someone as talented as Toosaka Rin could not organize them into complete "memory content" in a short period of time.

[In short, since the plot has not yet reached the point where it is necessary to involve Shirou's past identity, it will be kept here for the time being, and Toosaka Rin will supplement it later when the time is right.]

Shirou read the narration.

Shirou realized that although Toosaka Rin might not recognize her past self, she could really help him, by summoning spirits and making up for Shirou's lost 'past'!
The 'emptiness' in his heart urged Shirou to act, to take more radical actions.

For example: Performing summoning again to replenish the magic, allowing Toosaka Rin to obtain more fragments of her past memories -

[Can Shirou control his 'instinct'?]

[Difficulty: 90]

[Shirou's 'Self-restraint (willpower)': 1D100=100]

——Shirou forced himself to suppress his instinctive impulse.

No matter how his instinct urged Shirou to try to 'understand his past self', Shirou still endured it.

reason?

Because it is different from before. The previous magic replenishment was essentially a kind of 'recuperation', but if he forced to perform continuous spiritual magic replenishment now, it might cause harm to Toosaka Rin and might even harm the benefactor who saved him.

because
"If it were Ms. Musashi, she would definitely do this (← meaning to restrain her own instinctive impulses)." Shirou muttered to himself.

Shirou immediately looked at Musashi with confusion and curiosity:
Miss Musashi encountered that kind of thing when she was a child. She was already heartbroken at that time. What kind of experiences did she have later that turned her into the "perfect good woman (← in Shirou's eyes)" she is now?

"Ms. Musashi, how did you become the perfect woman you are today?" Shirou's innocent words almost made Musashi choke on her own saliva.

Shirou did not intend to hide his true feelings, and directly expressed his confusion and explained the "memory illusion" he saw.

Musashi was a little distracted at first.

But after learning that Shirou had just obtained his "dark history memory" in this way, he could no longer continue to let his imagination run wild.

".A perfect woman like me must have one or two secrets. You are still too young, Shirou. You are not old enough to touch onee-san's dark past. Compared to that, since our physical conditions are almost the same, I think we should get down to business."

Miss Musashi forced herself to change the subject. She opened a can of beer - no idea whether she picked it up on the way here or found it at Toosaka Rin's house - and started drinking it in big gulps.

Seeing that Miss Musashi was not going to say anything, Shirou did not ask any further questions.

Because what Miss Musashi said was absolutely correct - the pure-hearted Shirou, who had been completely fooled, firmly believed this from the bottom of his heart.

Toosaka Rin rubbed her temples. Although she had not yet been able to piece together Shirou's past from the large number of memory fragments in her mind, it would not be difficult to do so if she was given some time.

Through the memory of Shirou violently chopping Gilgamesh not long ago, Toosaka Rin at least knew that Shirou had lost his memory.

With a mentality similar to "save people to the end, and send Buddha to the west", Toosaka Rin plans to continue helping Shirou.

Of course, Toosaka Rin also has some little thoughts of her own.

For example, try to tie Shirou to your side.
(Ahem! No! I’m not thinking of that mess!

I know how powerful Shirou is through the memory I just remembered. Just like my father took his assistants to participate in the Holy Grail War, I can also take Shirou to participate in the next Holy Grail War!
He is so powerful, isn't it just like having one more servant fighting on my side?

That's basically equivalent to holding victory in your hands, right?
It’s definitely not some messy and unreasonable idea!)
Toosaka Rin tried hard to convince herself in her heart.

That’s right, in order to realize the long-cherished wish of the Tohsaka family, I must help Shirou. This is an exchange of interests!

that's it.

Led by Rin Toosaka, who actually knew the most information, the three began to compile the information.
Although it is said to be a summary of intelligence, Musashi is a time traveler who has just arrived and was involved in the emergency, while Shirou was involved in the emergency after losing his memory, so the information exchange is basically unilateral on the part of Toosaka Rin.

In short, Toosaka Rin explained the 'Rules of the Holy Grail War' that everyone knew, but only she took it seriously and followed it honestly.

Shirou also learned that the disaster that caused him to be involved was the 'Fourth Holy Grail War'.

Rin's father, Toshiomi Toosaka, died not long ago as a participant in the Fourth Holy Grail War. His body was brought to Rin Toosaka by his disciple Kotomine Kirei, who transplanted and inherited the family's magic seal.

Toosaka Rin's mother, Toosaka Aoi, was also involved. Although she is now out of danger and lying on the hospital bed, she has not woken up for a long time. Toosaka Rin has become the de facto head of the Toosaka family.

Toosaka Rin now appears in the Toosaka family. On the one hand, she is worried that the family property left in this mansion might be looted. On the other hand, she also wants to come here to see if there is any useful magic research inheritance, which may be used to help her mother who is sick in bed.

Shirou listened in silence, while Miss Musashi was lost in thought.

But Toosaka Rin suddenly showed an expression as if she was "sulking", and repeated the action of opening and closing her mouth several times.

It seemed like he wanted to say something, but for some reason he was too embarrassed to say it.

Because it was too obvious, Shirou could see it naturally. And because it was obvious that Rin wanted to say this to him, Shirou, who was clear about his personality, spoke to Rin innocently:
"Is there anything you want to tell me? Toosaka, if you feel you don't know how to describe it, I can help you explain it to me."

Shirou's words were very difficult to pronounce.

But Toosaka Rin immediately understood what he wanted to express, because when he said this, Shirou's eyes naturally fell on her lips again.

Obviously.

Shirou now does not understand that there is a kind of emotion called "unspeakable secret".

Shirou just thought that Toosaka Rin didn't know how to organize her words - if that's the case, then why not just not organize her words and directly transmit the 'words' that need to be conveyed through 'Spiritual Summons' in the form of memory sharing?

What a simple and crude "truth"!
This is the literal meaning of 'heart-to-heart'!

However, Shirou believed that Toosaka Rin had done him a favor, so if she was unwilling to do this, Shirou would not force her.

"Toosaka" Shirou took one of Toosaka Rin's hands, "Do you need a hand?"

Subconsciously covering her mouth with her other hand, Toosaka Rin said, "." [In response to Shirou's question, "If you don't know how to organize the explanation, just use summoning magic to send it to me directly."]

[Tousaka Rin's choice is.]

[1/2/3/4, I refused because I was shy (this is not a matter of life and death, how can you still do this!)]

[5. Toosaka Rin suddenly thought of something and wanted to get more of 'Shirou's past memories'. She thought this was a very important matter, so she suppressed her shyness and went for it.]

【1D5=5】

Shirou saw the result of the 'narration' and was about to take action after knowing that Toosaka Rin agreed.

"Wait a minute!" Toosaka Rin stopped Shirou and said, trying to emphasize something: "Let me make it clear in advance that this is for magic. It is a 'magic ritual' that I perform myself as the head of the Toosaka family! It is definitely not for some random reason!"

Shirou tilted his head in confusion, simply questioning, "What do you mean by 'messy reasons', Toosaka?"

"If you don't understand, don't ask!"

For some reason, the 'furious' Toosaka Rin took the initiative to use a skill!
Come! I don't know how many times I've been summoning spirits to replenish my magic——

But he was stopped by Shirou.

"Tousaka, this hurts, right?"

Shirou said this, and took the first step. He raised one of the knives that he had used to cut Gilgamesh not long ago, held the blade between his lips, and cut the tip of his tongue:

"Just let me do it."

Shirou said this in a very calm tone.

This seemed natural to him. After all, unlike Toosaka Rin, Shirou, who had the physique of a mushroom man, could shut down his sense of pain. It was most appropriate for him to be the one who took the initiative in replenishing his magic.

Miss Musashi couldn't help whistling again.

Toosaka Rin started blushing again, not knowing what she was thinking.

Shirou, the purest and most innocent person present, was worried from the bottom of his heart: Toosaka, are you sick somewhere? Or is your physical condition declining because of the intense continuous replenishment of magic before?

[Spiritual magic replenishment activated——]

[Whether you can read the memory accurately requires a successful 'Inspiration Test']

[Difficulty: 75]

[Shirou's 'Inspiration': 1D100=51]

[Tousaka Rin's 'Inspiration': 1D100=38]

Shirou: "."

cold:"."

Musashi: “.”

[Facing what is happening right now, Ms. Musashi's 'acceptance' is greater than 75, which means Ms. Musashi has entered the 'hit! ' state. The higher the value, the more enjoyable it is - however, it is assumed that Shirou's first focus is on Ms. Musashi.]

[Ms. Musashi's 'Acceptance': 1D100=78]

Miss Musashi couldn't help but whistle frivolously.

I couldn't help but make ambiguous noises and started to add fuel to the fire.

Miss Musashi is a woman who is often criticized for having an "uncle heart". She likes both beautiful girls and beautiful boys, and naturally she also likes the picture of the two of them close together. In her own words, "Seeing the beautiful picture of beautiful children living beautifully together, I feel my soul is purified~".

Toosaka Rin couldn't help but glare at the time traveler.

Then--

Toosaka Rin stamped her feet angrily, "No! We've already done it! It would be such a shame if we didn't get any information!"

Shirou said he had no objection.

[Difficulty: 75]

[Shirou's 'Inspiration': 1D100=59]

[Tousaka Rin's 'Inspiration': 1D100=7]

Shirou: "."

Toosaka Rin's stubborn temper came out, and her focus gradually shifted: "Why is there a problem with my magic!?"

[Difficulty: 75]

[Shirou's 'Inspiration': 1D100=92]

[Tousaka Rin's 'Inspiration': 1D100=62]

Shirou has successfully used summoning to replenish his demons and knows what Toosaka Rin wanted to tell him.

only.
Without waiting for Shirou to say anything, the stubborn Toosaka Rin, who was angry about something, wiped the red lipstick from her lips and skillfully attacked again!
Rin: "Come again!"

[Difficulty: 75]

[Shirou's 'Inspiration': 1D100=83]

[Tousaka Rin's 'Inspiration': 1D100=16]

Shirou: "."

Shirou now knew what Toosaka Rin had been hesitant to tell him before.

In fact, it is not that complicated, and Shirou even thinks it doesn't matter. But Toosaka Rin is very conflicted - the Toosaka family is one of the three organizers of the Holy Grail War, the so-called Big Three. In principle, the current tragedy of Fuyuki City can be blamed on her.

Shirou, who had lost his memory, did not feel like a real victim. To put it another way, at least he was personally helped by Toosaka Rin, but Toosaka Rin found it hard to accept.

Good people are like this, how do you say that? Good people are easy to be pointed at with guns.

Toosaka Rin is a good person, so he feels obligated to help Shirou figure out a way to sort out his memories. This is her 'atonement'.

In addition, Shirou also learned more about Toosaka Rin's family past - for example, she has a younger sister named Toosaka Sakura.

(But where is Sakura? Isn't she traveling with her?)
Shirou thought so. Obviously, he had not obtained enough memories from Toosaka Rin. He had not yet obtained the deeper memories that Toosaka Rin did not want others to know.

Toosaka Rin, who was completely excited, ignored the saliva that had not yet dried on Shirou's lips and came up for the umpteenth time!
It’s almost like the mobile game players are sinking into the card-drawing game.

Shirou certainly didn't mind continuing.

The emptiness in his heart still drives his instinctive desire to 'understand others'.

If Shirou is a succubus, then he must be a pure good succubus of the clear type.

Miss Musashi is being secretive now, obviously not wanting to reveal her past for the time being. So, Shirou naturally wouldn't mind taking this opportunity to deepen his understanding of the second person he cares about, Toosaka Rin.

[I don't know how many times I've played 'Spiritual Replenishment']

[Difficulty: 75]

[Shirou's 'Inspiration': 1D100=35]

[Tousaka Rin's 'Inspiration': 1D100=95]

Shirou: "What a pity." Shirou thought secretly. Well, he still thought this naively: I thought I could take this opportunity to get to know Tōsaka better.

After they separated, Toosaka Rin fell into deep thought.

And Shirou saw——

[Tousaka Rin has completely understood 'the key information about Shirou's past (including the memories that Shirou himself has forgotten)']

【In this regard, Toosaka Rin's choice is.】

[1. Tell Shirou directly]

[2. I won’t tell you for now. I’ll tell Shirou after Toosaka Rin has sorted everything out.]

【1D2=2】

Shirou did not have any prejudice against Toosaka Rin for this result. He just thought naively as always: his ability to see the "narration" was quite convenient, although he did not know the principle.

Toosaka Rin didn't hide anything, but told Shirou truthfully that she already knew about Shirou's 'past before he lost his memory', but: "Sorry, Shirou, I still need some time to sort out all the information. I will tell you when I have sorted it out and know how to explain it.
If you are worried that I might be hiding something from you, I will tell you the information through magic repair when I am ready, because the information I got from you about your memory before you lost your memory is all messy fragments, and I can't sort it out in a short time."

Toosaka Rin was very serious when she said this.

Looking at her like this.
"Okay." Shirou didn't have any special ideas: "Okay, I believe you, Rin."

Toosaka Rin was stunned, and couldn't help feeling shy: "Why did you suddenly call me by my name?"

Shirou said bluntly: "You have a younger sister named Tousaka Sakura. It will be hard to tell them apart if you call her by her last name."

"." Hearing this, the shy Toosaka Rin was suddenly stunned, and then her expression became gloomy and her voice became softer, ".No, you can just continue to call me Toosaka."

Shirou: “?” What does that mean?
Could it be that Rin Toosaka's sister, Sakura Toosaka, has met with an accident?

Shirou felt that if it was Miss Musashi, she would definitely blame herself for saying the wrong thing.

——So Shirou, who had said something wrong, also began to imitate and blame himself.
He tried hard to make his expression look more 'self-blaming', but due to his mushroom man's physique, it was difficult for Shirou to do so as he always maintained a 'palsy' state.

Miss Musashi, who was originally enjoying the golden boy and jade girl couple, noticed that the atmosphere was not right and quickly changed the subject:

"Oh, by the way! Ms. Toosaka, when you mentioned Gilgamesh's treasure of the king, it suddenly occurred to me that this sword, one of the two trophies that Shirou brought back, could it be the legendary 'ancestor of Japanese swords'?"

Miss Musashi picked up the two trophies that Shirou had taken away - the longer of the two samurai swords, one long and one short.

At first he was very enthusiastic, like a salesman, and opened another can of beer. While drinking it, he introduced the story of this "ancestor of Japanese swords."

"I suspected it before, but now it seems that this thing is indeed the legendary [Heavenly Made·Unnamed] - Kokarasuma!"

At this moment, Shirou's attention could not be fully focused on Miss Musashi's 'popular science introduction'.

Only because, at this moment, the 'narration' in Shirou's vision began to refresh a large amount of judgment content at an extremely fast speed -

That was the most outrageous "information" Shirou had ever seen!
