“These words must be said.

"Like I told you. I'm just a fake who walks the path of hypocrisy with self-satisfaction.

"In the end, just knowing that I'm trying to save them is good.

"As long as I know it myself."

After a while, a man with blue kelp hair walked in with an angry look on his face.

"Emiya. I don't know what has taken you so much crazy. Are you planning to commit suicide?

"With your current achievements, do you know how great an honor it is for a magician?!"

As soon as he came in, Matou Shinji started scolding him.

"You know, I don't want to be a magician." Emiya Shirou said, "It's just that in order to fulfill my ideal, I need the power of magic."

"But in order to achieve your ideal, do you need to sacrifice your life?"

"Didn't you do the same thing before?"

Matou Shinji's words got stuck in his throat. He recalled the past.

“I’m sorry, Emiya.

"but……"

Shinji Matou rushed forward, grabbed Emiya by the collar, and stared at Shirou Emiya in front of him.

Emiya Shirou also looked at him calmly.

"Emiya, you saved me from that.

"I don't want to see you die anyway."

"I don't want to die either. But there are some things that someone has to do.

"Even if there is hell ahead."

"Forget it, I can't argue with you." Matou Shinji let go of Emiya Shirou's collar with boredom.

"That book contains my annotations on those magic tricks, you should have seen it. I hope my book can help you. From now on, be nice to Sakura."

"I understand." Matou Shinji ran in angrily and then walked out with a dull look on his face.

"You've been talking nonsense again." Emiya Shirou sighed.

But as he said, even if it is nonsense, it must be said. Some things must be done by someone.

Even if words cannot change anything, one's feelings should be conveyed.

The next person to walk in was Rin.

She wasn't as emotional as the others.

"Nemiya-san.

“I’m not very familiar with you.

"But you really helped me.

"It allowed me to experience a different world of magicians, and it made me understand Sakura's past pain. It also helped us to reconcile.

“So, I really don’t want you to die.

“But, I have something to tell you.

“Actually this isn’t the first time you’ve helped me.

"When I was very young and felt a little discouraged about the difficulty of inheriting magic, I saw you practicing high jump on the school playground.

“I challenge the impossible heights again and again. Even if I fall, even if I am tired, I still challenge the goal.

“Honestly, it was clumsy. But it was you who rekindled my confidence.

“You don’t actually have to face an enemy you can’t defeat.

"But if you don't do that, you wouldn't be Emiya Shirou, would you?"

"Yes. I'm very happy that I was able to help you before." Emiya Shirou replied.

"That's all I have to say." Toosaka Rin turned and left, a few tears falling from her eyes, then wetting her entire eye sockets, but she walked out firmly no matter what.

The last one to come in was Archer.

"Why, aren't you surprised to see me?" Archer felt unhappy when he saw Shirou Emiya's calm expression.

"Of course it's not surprising. You are me. I am you."

"Don't say you're me. Last time you made me drown in my own ideals. Lancer even said that I'm getting worse and worse.

“Honestly, I don’t feel sad at all, I don’t feel depressed at all that you’re dying.

"I'm very happy. Because I can't kill you, and I can't stand looking at your smug stupid face.

"God is really wise. It's a good death."

“But it’s not really fun at all, is it?”

"What are you talking about? I'm very happy. It would be great for me if you died. After all, you humiliated me so much before. After all..." Archer stopped talking halfway and slammed his fist on the table, "You bastard, didn't you say you would practice your ideals, fulfill your dreams, and become a partner of justice?"

"At this point, where is your dream?!" Archer roared angrily, "Don't you want to prove it to me?!"

Chapter 89: Shirou Emiya Seeks Death (Part 3)

“But I never thought about proving it to anyone.

“You are me. I am you.

“I understand where you’re coming from.

"I'm sure you understand what I'm thinking, right?"

Emiya Shirou said.

“Because I don’t have enough power to save everyone, I’ve ended up following the same path as my father.

“Sacrifice a few to save the many.

“You kept insisting on doing this, but in the end no one was saved, and no one was grateful to you.

“Betrayed by a friend.

“Only when I was on the verge of my limit did I choose to become the guardian of restraint.

“That’s me, that’s you.

"We all know this man named 'Emiya Shirou', don't we?

“I am indeed a hypocrite, and no one expects salvation from me.

“But I just feel that there are some things that must be done.

"You are like this too, right? That's why you obeyed the guidance of the Holy Grail and came to this Holy Grail War."

"What a joke. I came back just to kill you!" Archer, who had been very calm until now and had never shown any embarrassment even after being frightened by the battle with Wang Ha and Hassan, now had a distorted and horrible expression on his face.

But looking at that terrifying face, Emiya Shirou felt 'reassured'.

"Thank you for your hard work, Archer."

"At this point, you are saying..."

"You've done well enough, Emiya Shirou."

"I said it all..."

"That's great, me."

"You... bastard!" Archer could no longer speak, and a tear fell from the corner of his eye.

Just like what Emiya Shirou said.

As himself, he understands the other person best.

Others didn't know who the enemy he was going to face was, but he could probably guess.

No matter what kind of hardships he has endured, what kind of pain he has gone through, how rigorous the training he has received, or how powerful he has gained.

Only one thing won't change.

That is, he is "Emiya Shirou" himself.

No matter how powerful he is now, he is still that Shirou Emiya.

No matter how much Archer hated himself for wanting to go down this path in the past.

In the end, I will still be persuaded by my naive self.

They are all Shirou Emiya. That's why they can understand each other.

Can empathize.

Only then can you understand the reluctance and sadness in the other person's heart.

"I have nothing more to say to you." Archer returned to his cold expression and walked out.

Shirou Emiya opened the window and the morning sun shone in.

"Would you like to go get something to eat, Saber?" asked Emiya Shirou.

"Well. Let's eat something. I'm a little hungry." With the current Shirou Emiya as her master, Saber's magic power reserves are amazing. She does not need to replenish her magic power through food, but she still feels hungry and wants to taste delicious food.

Perhaps during those days of slavery, being able to eat delicious food was the only desire that the girl could rely on.

But now, rather than satisfying her appetite, Saber wanted to know what Emiya Shirou wanted to do.

With his strength, who can kill him?

Emiya Shirou made a phone call.

"Shirou, you still remember to call me! You skipped class yesterday and weren't at home! Come to class today and see how I deal with you."

"Sister Tiger, come and have dinner with us tonight."

"I told you I'm not a tiger. I'm a river!"

"Okay, Sister Tiger."

"Shirou! You bastard!"

Emiya hung up the phone again, with a smirk of successful prank on his face.

"Let's eat here." Shirou Emiya took Saber to a ramen restaurant and ordered two bowls of ramen.

“What the hell do you want to do here?” This was not the first time Saber wanted to ask this question.

"I have something else I must do." Emiya still used this answer, "In the next period of time, you can move freely. You don't have to follow me."

Shirou Emiya took out his wallet and put it on the table. "This is some money I earned from odd jobs. In today's society, you need this money to eat. You can use it first."

"Emiya... Shirou..." Saber did not understand the sorrow of the person in front of her. He obviously had so many things in his heart, so why didn't he share them with her?

Emiya Shirou looked at Saber in front of him.

One thing is certain in my mind.

He couldn't like Saber anymore.

He even now doesn't understand why his other self in other world lines would fall in love with Saber.

I learned what happened to Saber, her wishes, and everything about her.

Know the roots.

On the contrary, I can’t like it.

But, he still wanted to help her.

He couldn't save her using Emiya's methods from other world lines, and had no way to give her a perfect dream.

But the current Emiya Shirou has his own methods.

"Then, you eat here first." Emiya Shirou took a few bites, wiped his mouth with a smile, and then went to the shore.

Here, there is a blue figure sitting on a stool with a fishing rod in his hand.
