I, Altria, only want to rule China.

The woman in a purple robe had a beautiful face, but her ears were pointed like an elf. The way she smiled softly looked very innocent.

"Shh." The woman made a whispering gesture to Emiya Shirou.

"You mean quiet?" Emiya Shirou asked in confusion.

"Yes." The woman nodded.

"What? You suddenly showed up in someone else's house and told me to be quiet...

Shirou Emiya suddenly remembered something. Isn't this his home? An unfamiliar woman suddenly ran into his home. Shirou Emiya couldn't help but doubt the other party's motives.

However, before Emiya Shirou could finish his words, he was interrupted by the other party.

"I'm not a dangerous existence to you." The woman's words seemed to have a faint magical power that easily calmed Shirou Emiya's panic.

"Is that so?" Even so, this woman couldn't help but be suspicious.

The woman gave a friendly smile: "Of course."

“Wuwuwuwuwu…

At this moment, the sound of a kettle boiling on the gas stove was heard in the kitchen, interrupting Shirou Emiya's next question.

"Wait a minute, then. Wait for me."

After saying that, Shirou Emiya didn't care about the woman and hurried to the kitchen. He was afraid that if he said a few more words to the woman, the kettle in the kitchen would explode.

Looking at Shirou Emiya who hurriedly ran to the kitchen, the woman narrowed her eyes, then looked outside. She could vaguely see the scenery outside in this small room.

"Holy Grail War? Medea has been summoned..."

Chapter 270: Partner of Justice

"That woman with long purple hair should not be a local, but why did she appear in my room?" Turning off the gas and pouring the boiled water into the kettle, Shirou Emiya thought about the woman he had just seen.

The woman was very beautiful, more beautiful than any other woman he had ever seen, but Emiya Shirou felt threatened by her, as if he was facing a ferocious beast, a kind of suppression from his blood.

"Come to think of it, that woman seemed to have appeared after I recited the spell in the note left by my father. Could it be related to that? But she was glowing just now, right?" Shirou Emiya continued to think about the appearance of that woman. There were too many questions.

"Forget it, he doesn't look like a bad person. Anyway, I'll invite her for a cup of tea and have a good chat." Having made up his mind, Shirou Emiya made two cups of tea on the table and brought them over.

The purple-haired woman did not move at all and continued to kneel there quietly. It was not until Emiya Shirou pushed the hot dish that he had already prepared towards her that she reacted slightly.

The woman had no intention of refusing the hot dish pushed towards her by Emiya Shirou. She first picked up the hot dish and placed it in front of her eyes to observe it for a while. Then she blew a few times to disperse the heat from the hot dish a little, and then drank the hot tea with an expression of savoury taste.

During this time, neither of them said a word to each other, or maybe Emiya Shirou didn't know what to say.

............

"What's your name? ... By the way, my name is Shirou Emiya." Across the table, after the other person drank the second cup of hot tea, Shirou Emiya finally couldn't help asking the other person's name. Otherwise, he felt that if he didn't ask, the other person would just stay still.

"My class is caster, my real name is Medea (Lily)" After Shirou Emiya asked, the woman introduced herself

"Caster? Medea?" Reading these two strange names, Shirou Emiya's face was full of confusion.

"Caster, just call me that."

"Casa te...translated into Chinese as magician?" Shirou Emiya frowned.

Strictly speaking, would anyone call themselves this? It doesn't sound like a person's name at all, it looks more like a code name.

Even so, Shirou Emiya still didn't think the other person was lying. More importantly, the other person's eyes were very clear and he didn't feel that she was lying.

"Um...you are, a human. Right?" Emiya Shirou asked tentatively.

"No, even a slow-witted person should have noticed it." Caste answered, looking straight into Shirou Emiya's eyes.

Emiya Shirou: "...

"Just as you expected, I am not a human. I am a Servant who shares your goal of pursuing the Holy Grail."

"Is he the Servant who shares the same goal as me for the Holy Grail?" There was a hint of confusion in Shirou Emiya's eyes. He was a little confused about the current situation.

"Master, let me ask you a question, don't you know the Holy Grail?" Seeing that Shirou Emiya knew nothing, Caster had an absurd idea in his mind.

"I'm really sorry, I don't know what you're talking about." Shirou Emiya scratched the back of his head embarrassedly.

"A beginner? I see. You're not a regular Master."

Caster narrowed his eyes, looked at Shirou Emiya who was confused by his words and said: "Master, I will tell you everything related to the Holy Grail. This is very important to you, so you must listen carefully no matter what."

"Okay, I understand, caster." Emiya Shirou quickly sat down, as if he was a student in school.

"Holy Grail War...

In this way, Shirou Emiya learned from Caster about the Holy Grail War, the omnipotent wish-granting machine, the reappearance of the myth, and that he was chosen as the Master, and understood that this war was a matter of life and death.

After Shirou Emiya understood, Caster continued, "Although I am a Servant, I am somewhat inferior to those famous heroes. The only thing I can be proud of is magic, so try not to tell my real name. Because I don't know where I can find a magician's "ears",

Whether you like it or not, hiding my identity is for your own good."

"Is that so?"

"Yeah." Caster nodded.

If one reveals his real name, the other party will be able to find his weakness from the original text, so every heroic spirit will hide his real name, of course excluding those with mental problems.

"From now on I can just call you caster, right?" said Emiya Shirou.

Caster smiled and nodded, "Yes, Master."

"Last sentence, will Fuyuki really become a battlefield?" Emiya Shirou's eyes became very serious.

"Yes, master. What's your answer? Do you plan to give up or fight?" Caster didn't have any intention of hiding anything. He stared straight at his master. Did he have the determination to die? Did he have the courage to join the battle?

“…Since I can’t escape, I’ve got to do this.” At this moment, Emiya Shirou realized.

When I was a child, I didn’t understand what a partner of justice was. It was just because my father was a partner of justice that I longed for such a wish.

The so-called partners of justice are organizations of evil monsters that threaten cities and cause many people to panic.

Face them with the righteous power bestowed upon you, and continue to protect the peace of the city and its people.

Like other boys of the same age, it was a very innocent dream, and now it has become a memory of the distant past. He doesn't think about it very often, and if he does, he feels too ashamed to think about it.

But there is one thing I haven't forgotten, and that is that I want to be a partner of justice.

Here, there are friends I’ve been socializing with since primary school, and they can be said to be bad friends.

Here, there is a kind old man who always greets me after taking out the garbage in the morning.

Here, there is a convenience store clerk who talks to me when I go home from school at night.

Here, when I go to school in the morning, I can always see people busy coming and going in the city.

"Go ahead, Caster. Although I may not be a righteous partner, I want to protect everyone who smiles at me here. If the Holy Grail War will destroy this place and kill people, I want to stop it!"

Small, ordinary. But definitely filled with his own meaning, Emiya Shirou said to the Servant he summoned:

Chapter 271: Girls Don’t Stay

"General, this is another victory for me~"

In the small living room, the two girls stared at the chessboard in front of them. Ai Ge, who was one step behind, put down the chess piece helplessly as she looked at her king who had nowhere to escape.

"Ah, I lost again. I haven't beaten Leah from the beginning to now. I'm so angry!" Aige looked at the king who was blocked on his chessboard with a depressed look on his face.

Although she could use future vision to see how Leah would go down, wouldn't that be cheating? And she didn't want to use future vision.

"Aige, your chess skills are very good. I think it won't take long for you to beat me." Leah picked up a piece of pastry from the table on the side and ate it in two bites, accompanied by a cute "ah-ah-ah" sound.

"No, I must beat Leah today!" After saying that, Aige rearranged the chessboard unwillingly.

Speaking of chess, it was invented by Leah, but it is not called chess, but dragon chess.

"Haha, as the saying goes, the chess field is like a battlefield. No matter how many times we play, I will never let you win." Liya smiled.

As the first player on the red side, she pulled the cannon directly to the middle.

Just as the two continued playing dragon chess, the door to the living room was opened.

As the door opened, golden rays that had risen high into the sky outside shone through the curtains onto the ground. A man walked in toward the golden rays.

It was already the third morning since the Holy Grail War began.

Seeing the situation in the living room, Hiroki Sajo turned his gaze to Aika, but Aika ignored him and looked at the chessboard intently, picked up a chess piece and put it down.

"Aige, why don't you follow the battle plan?" Hiroki Sajō looked at Aige in confusion. What was she going to do?

Obviously the plan had been prepared, and Saber had read it and agreed to it, but Aige still had no intention of taking any action. Instead, she and Leah played with these boring things at home.

In Hiroki Sajo's eyes, apart from roots, magic, and children, these entertainment things are indeed boring and unnecessary.

"Father, your plan won't work. I won't let Saber do it." Aige didn't even turn her head back, but just lowered her head and looked at the chessboard.

Let her lover fight in the front? She doesn't even have time to protect Leah, how could she let Leah fight with anyone, especially a servant.

"Aige." Hiroki Sajō said seriously.

"I said absolutely not." Ai Ge's determination was revealed in these powerful words.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" He took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it with a lighter, took a deep breath, and exhaled a circle of smoke.

"Aige, all of our strategies for the Holy Grail War are centered on Servants. Servants are weapons, or more precisely, a collection of beings with power greater than that of weapons. Although we should avoid unnecessary abuse, you keep Saber locked up at home all day. What on earth are you thinking? This is not going to help the Holy Grail War.

Victory in the Cup War."

At this moment, Hiroki Sajo had no idea that his daughter already had her own ideas.

"Even if Saber doesn't go out, I will win." Aige raised her head and looked at her father as a matter of course.

"Aige, do you know what you are saying?" Hiroki Sajo looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"Of course I know. I will win the Holy Grail War." Aige said confidently.

"You are too confident. Without Saber's help, it is simply impossible. Not to mention victory, you won't even be able to survive."

Putting out the cigarette, Hiroki Sajō looked at Aika and continued, "If your opponent is a magician, you will definitely not lose. However, your opponent is not just a magician, there are also servants in the Holy Grail War. Don't underestimate them. The heroic spirits who can leave their names in history are definitely not beings that magicians can fight against.

The magician can finish it in less than half a day, you will be very lucky if you can last two days now."

"Well... Even though she was very strong among magicians, Aige had to admit that although she was confident that she could beat ordinary Heroic Spirits, she could not guarantee that she could beat those first-rate Servants. Her faith was also slightly shaken.

"Aige, I agree with your father. Nothing can be solved at home. Sooner or later, hostile servants will come to you. It is better to take the initiative to attack."

Just as Aige's father said, from the time the Holy Grail was summoned until now, Leah has never left home. She has basically been playing with Aige all the time. It seems that Aige's mind is not on the Holy Grail.

And from Ai Ge's tone now, she is planning to keep herself at home for the rest of her life. What does this mean? A beautiful woman in a golden house?

Leah was a little unhappy that she thought of herself as a weak woman.

Although neither she nor Aige planned to obtain the Holy Grail, she felt it necessary to understand the topography of the city first.

Otherwise, when the enemy comes to her door, she won’t know where to go.

"Did you hear Aige? Saber also supports...

Leah's support seemed to give Hiroki Sajyo a shot of blood, and his tone of voice became more powerful. When Hiroki Sajyo was about to give a long speech.

"Oh, by the way, Leah, I have a good idea."

Aige lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking. Perhaps she didn't hear what the two said at all, or even if she heard it, she didn't take it seriously. Instead, she directly pulled Liya's hand, ignored her father, and ran outside.

"So weak." When Ai Ge's hand rested on hers, Leah muttered to herself. Before she could reply, Ai Ge took her out, leaving her with a confused look on her face.

"Aige." Looking at the two people's backs as they suddenly left, Hiroki Sajo could only weakly shout Aige's name from behind. As a father, he was unable to discipline his children, which could be said to be a complete failure.

"Ai Ge, why?" When the two stopped at a street outside, Leah looked at her with some confusion.

"Didn't I tell you that I don't want you to get hurt, Leah, and I don't plan on getting the Holy Grail, so it's best for us not to go out for now."

It was impossible to fight during the day because they had to avoid being seen, so Aige was not worried about bringing Leah out of the house.

"But... even so, it's impossible to hide until the end." Since this is the Holy Grail War, there will definitely be a day when we will be discovered. It is impossible to hide forever.

Leah didn't know what to say. This kind of thing was inevitable in the Holy Grail War, but Aige was so willful, and all of this willfulness was because of herself.

Chapter 272 Is It a Date?

"Ah, I know what you and your father mean, Leah, so I will find a way. Leah, you haven't come out since you were summoned, so let's go for a good walk now~"

Aige directly pulled Leah's hand and hugged her tightly with her own hands, almost pressing her entire body against Leah, the smile on her face almost unable to fade away.
