Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime

Sajo Ayaka looked at the black bag that Emiya Shirou placed aside with an extremely suspicious look.

The residential area and Xindu are still several kilometers apart. In order to get there faster, I naturally would not choose to just run there on foot.

Not to mention how much time it would take to run there, even if you do get there, how much energy will you have left to deal with emergencies?

What? Didn't Emiya Shirou travel back and forth between the new and old capitals of Fuyuki City in a very short time when he was in Illya's world?

At that time, Shirou Emiya could fly, but now he can't just run down the street holding Ayaka Sajo in his arms.

It will be on the news the next day, and Toosaka Rin will have to deal with it. In the end, it will be revealed that it was an hallucination caused by a gas leak.

"There must be a weapon that suits you."

Shirou Emiya waved his hands helplessly. He had no way to use projection magic now, otherwise there would be no need to go through so much trouble.

"But Bokuto, you're not really going to use strengthening magic to fight the Dead Apostles head-on, are you? Low-level Dead Apostles are still okay, but high-level ones——"

That’s right, the black bag contained nothing else but a few wooden swords that he had just bought from a roadside store.

There is still some distance between the Emiya residence and the Sajo residence, and it is in the opposite direction of the Shinto. If you go back to get weapons, it will take a lot of time.

That's why Shirou Emiya decided to buy a few wooden swords on his way to the new capital.

Anyway, no matter what kind of sword it is, it's the same to Emiya Shirou.

"In fact, I think we can think on the bright side. If Miss Aika doesn't provoke any Dead Apostles when we go there, we can just take her away without any conflict with the Dead Apostles."

In fact, Shirou Emiya was not very worried about the safety of Aika Sajo. If he thought about it for a while, he would know that this must have been intentional.

They had clearly agreed to meet at this time, but she ended up following some Dead Apostle alone, and coincidentally, Shirou Emiya who came over found out.

In particular, Aika Sajo possesses extraordinary strength. At least her [Seal] is something that most beings cannot resist.

However, this vast majority of existence does not include Shirou Emiya. After being able to see through cause and effect, Shirou Emiya can split it the moment [Seal] is deployed, and thus is completely unaffected.

If the distance is close enough, Shirou Emiya can even directly break this technique into pieces.

Of course, Shirou Emiya is not the only one who can do this, there is also Miyamoto Musashi.

"I hope so, but my sister is not a, uh, quiet person."

Sajo Ayaka covered her head and sighed. What should Sajo Ayaka say?

When my sister is lazy, she is really lazy. She can stay at home without moving at all, just waiting for me to take care of her.

But when she went out to cause trouble, it was earth-shattering. The thought of cleaning up after her sister's actions gave her a headache, but she couldn't just ignore it.

“It sounds like it’s pretty hard.”

Shirou Emiya also sighed out loud about this, and for some reason he suddenly thought of Fuji-nee. Although he could not compare Fuji-nee with Sajo Aika, Fuji-nee had also caused him a lot of worry in the past.

Now it is Shirou Emiya who makes Fujimura Taiga worry. After all, he doesn't spend much time in Fuyuki City in a year, and he can't even be contacted by phone.

If it weren't for the fact that Shirou Emiya did come back every once in a while, and if basically everyone she knew had guaranteed that nothing had happened to Shirou Emiya, Fujimura Taiga would have felt slightly relieved.

She thought that Shirou Emiya was recruited into the legendary brewery and was carrying out some special mission every day. Look at Gin, he also has white hair (silver hair), maybe it's because of working too much overtime.

Keke, get back to business.

The location given by Shatiao Ai Ge is very vague, basically it is a large area. If only two people are searching for Shatiao Ai Ge's location in such a large area, it may be possible to find a little clue until night.

Fortunately, although the information given by Ai Ge is vague, there are still key points in it.

Abandoned Building -

It basically reduces the scope of their search.

It's not that the map of Fuyuki City marks where the abandoned buildings are, nor does it mean that Shirou Emiya and Ayaka Sajo know where the abandoned buildings are.

But——————

"call out--!"

With a sharp sound of breaking through the air, a black bird with dark eyes filled with scarlet red light soared into the sky.

"Gah——!"

Along with a cry of pain, blood gushed out from the sharp beak of the black bird with a dark aura. In just a moment, the crow hovering in the air lost its life and was eaten up by the black bird.

"A magician's familiar? Looks like someone has discovered my location, even though I just arrived in this city."

A pleasant and low voice sounded in this abandoned building. If Emiya Shirou could be here, he would definitely be able to tell who this voice belonged to - Kotomine Kirei.

However, the person standing in the darkness was not Kotomine Kirei, but a man with short silver-white hair wearing a suit and looking like a professor.

"So where has she gone now?"

On an extremely quiet street somewhere, a girl with glasses, short golden hair and a school uniform who looked almost exactly like Sajo Ayaka was running away aimlessly while looking behind her with a terrified expression.

"Girl, you seem troubled—"

As a soft voice that seemed to be mixed with a little joy sounded, under the light of the street lamp, a girl with silver hair and golden eyes, wearing a nun's uniform and holding a rather thick book in her hand, looked at the other party as if with an expressionless face.

"Do you need the Lord's protection?"

The next second, behind her, countless red strips rose up wildly, cutting through the air and heading straight towards the girl who looked exactly like Sajo Ayaka.

"!!!"

The blonde girl, who had never expected the other party to suddenly attack her, suddenly closed her eyes.

However, what came was not the expected pain, but a few roars of wild beasts.

"Uuuuuuu——!"

He opened his eyes and followed the red ribbon. In the darkness, he saw a wild beast like a wild wolf being tied up tightly in mid-air.

"How did that sentence go?"

"Retreat will only lead to aging, and cowardice will lead to death. This sword is called - Zan Yue."

"Puff! Puff! Puff!"

As several tearing sounds were heard, the beasts let out wailing sounds, and then fell to the ground like a quagmire and disappeared.

Chapter 1089 I’m Really Furious

Night begins to fall quietly.

An indescribable atmosphere of silence is quietly spreading around an abandoned building.

The street lights seemed to have malfunctioned and were out.

In this remote place on earth, there is no human presence at all.

"Is the call still not working?"

Standing on the dim street, Emiya Shirou asked Sajo Ayaka who was standing beside him.

"I can't get through. The phone is turned off, and all my familiars were killed dozens of minutes ago!"

Ayaka Sajo frowned tightly, her eyes full of anxiety, and her hands clenched into fists. She couldn't imagine what she would do if something really happened to her sister, and how she would face her father.

"It seems that the other party has already known about our arrival--"

Shirou Emiya tightly gripped the wooden sword in his hand, staring straight at the building in front of him that was almost swallowed by darkness, and spoke softly.

It was not only because of the change in the aura around him, but also because of the undisguised ominous magical aura coming from inside.

"You'd better go."

However, just as Emiya Shirou was about to head towards the abandoned building, Sajo Ayaka behind him suddenly spoke up: "This matter was originally her own fault. There is no need to risk her life for this—"

Although it is not nice to say this about her sister, from Sajo Ayaka's perspective, it was indeed Sajo Aika who was asking for trouble. Why did she have to follow the Dead Apostles? Things like the Dead Apostles should be left to the people of the Holy Church to deal with.

Not only was he not involved in it, but he also used such unacceptable reasons.

In response to Sajo Ayaka's words, Emiya Shirou's footsteps suddenly paused, but only for a moment, and he walked towards the abandoned building without looking back.

"Didn't I tell you? I'll help—"

"It's really Baka!"

Sajo Ayaka cursed slightly, but did not try to persuade Emiya Shirou again, but followed behind him.

"sand--!"

Next to the abandoned building, the trees planted along the street swayed gently in the wind.

"Snapped--!"

With the sound of slight footsteps, the two of them, with the help of the moonlight, carefully stepped through the door of the abandoned building and entered the interior.

Although it is an abandoned building, most of it has been completed. It is not like a construction site where only the various supports have been poured, and the surrounding walls and windows have been filled.

Therefore, in this building, even the moonlight shining down from high in the sky cannot shine into it.

"Emiya, do you know any lighting magic?"

Standing at the door, Sajo Ayaka did not go any further, but looked around and asked Emiya Shirou who also stopped at the door.

In such a dark environment, you won't even know when someone approaches you secretly.

This is a perfect place for Assassin to fight.

"I won't."

Emiya Shirou answered Sajo Ayaka's question very confidently.

"Then why did you rush in in such a hurry?"

Hearing what Shirou Emiya said, Ayaka Sajo's blood pressure suddenly rose. Why are you walking so fast if you don't know lighting magic?

"But I can see clearly—"

Sajo Ayaka felt that Emiya Shirou was just trying to fool her, but she had no evidence. He was so dark, yet he didn't even use magic to strengthen his eyes. Are you the reincarnation of an owl?

What's more, even with the enhanced magic, I can't see clearly! I can only see the nearby areas.

Beside Sajo Ayaka's eyes, there are traces of magic with bright stripes, which are the signs of enhanced magic.

"calm down!"

Sajo Ayaka exhaled a few times, signaling herself not to panic. The more panicked she was at this moment, the easier it would be to make mistakes. Then she looked at Shirou Emiya next to her again and asked, "So what kind of magic can you do?"

"Enhancement magic and projection magic."

Emiya Shirou's answer was sincere and he didn't lie.

but------

"Kick--!"

Sajo Ayaka's heart suddenly stopped. Strengthening magic and projection magic, aren't those the two most basic magics?

"As for strengthening magic, I can only strengthen items at the moment."

“Dang! Dang!”

She felt like she was about to suffocate, and the favorable impression she had just had towards Shirou Emiya disappeared without a trace again.

No! Where do you get the confidence to follow me to face the Dead Apostles?

Oh, he didn't know the Dead Apostles.

No! He can't really be a novice magician!

Sajo Ayaka felt her blood pressure soared to the point where it was about to burst. She had misjudged it and actually believed his cool words. He was clearly just a rookie who couldn't even use strengthening magic to strengthen the human body.

Wouldn't it be like asking for death if I followed you like this?

But looking at Shirou Emiya's determined eyes in the darkness, and remembering what she had said before in front of the abandoned building, Sajo Ayaka swallowed back what she was about to say.

It turned out to be a wrong decision to bring him here.

"Let me do it! I can only use my extremely clumsy Formalcraft——?"

Before Sajo Ayaka could finish her words, a strong light burst out in front of her eyes, causing her to close her eyes in an instant, and then she stretched out her hands to block herself.

After a few seconds, she slowly opened her eyes.

Then I saw Shirou Emiya holding something like a brick in his hand (it was still a flip phone at this time, not a smartphone), and the front end was emitting a strong white light, illuminating the surroundings.

“Although I don’t know how to perform lighting magic, I have something that can illuminate!”

Emiya Shirou nodded to Sajo Ayaka.
