It has entered the beginning of April. In the cherry blossom forest outside the Tosaka family's new residence, the flowering period of the cherry blossoms is gradually passing away. Except for the occasional scattered buds on the branches and the withered and broken calyxes that have not yet been blown off. , the only thing left is the pink color of Yingmu.
The flowering period, which lasted for more than ten days, has finally entered its decline. But at the same time, more new green leaves began to appear on the branches, symbolizing that the summer of this year is finally coming.
At this time, in this forest, there is a cold man with black hair and a bit messy Emiya Kiritsugu. He is now in this forest without a sea of flowers, and now he is taking time out with his wife Irisviel. Encountered.
Because there are no little ones here to cause trouble, so they can talk normally without any interference.
"Kiritsugu, it's so strange today. Don't you need to secretly observe the Holy Grail War again?"
Irisviel herself was very curious about her husband's sudden arrival.
She never thought that the other party would choose this time to come to her. You know, at this time, the Holy Grail War on the first day outside should be about to start. Is it really okay for him not to observe secretly? According to the plan, the other party must observe the entire Holy Grail War and then report to the head of the family when they return.
"It's not necessary today. I have sent an assistant to observe from a distance."
Emiya Kiritsugu has sent his trusted Maiya Kuu to use equipment to observe the contestants from a distance. As for Illya's safety, he is now completely relieved and does not think anyone can do anything between the old man and the man named There is a threat to those little guys around Annie's little girl.
Furthermore, if there is danger or other accidents, his assistant will definitely notify him immediately. It is so close to the venue outside, and he can rush there at any time.
Therefore, when he came here today to find his wife Aili, he actually had something important to do.
"Is such that?"
Irisviel also knew a little about her husband's experience, and of course a certain young female assistant whom he trusted very much! However, being smart and virtuous, she did not think about interfering too much in this matter. If the other party did not want to talk, she would not interfere, because she believed him and that was enough.
""
Emiya Kiritsugu didn't speak any more, he just stepped on the thick layer of petals and stared blankly at the last flower bones that were about to fade on the branches and the new leaves that were being pulled out from the branches.
He was organizing words to express a certain decision of his.
"Ellie"
After a while, Emiya Kiritsugu finally figured out something. He suddenly turned his head, as if he had made up his mind, and looked at his wife intently.
Although he didn't know whether the other party would agree, there were some things that he had been holding back for several years. Now, he felt that it was time to make a decision.
"What's wrong, Kiritsugu?"
Of course, Irisviel could tell that something was not right about the other person's expression, and the look in his eyes seemed a little too serious, so she couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
She vaguely knew that the other party must have something very important to tell her, so why did she come to see her today?
"Ellie"
"Have you ever thought that our family will never go back to Einzbern Castle again?"
After taking a slow breath and remaining silent for a while, Emiya Kiritsugu slowly asked his beloved wife in a low tone with a hint of trembling. He had actually wanted to do this for a long time, but he had never had the right opportunity.
"ah!!"
"Kiritsugu, can you tell me why this is?"
Irisviel's heart skipped a beat. Although she was shocked, she didn't yell or act too panicked. Although she didn't know why the other party had such dangerous thoughts, she still quickly calmed down. He came down, took two steps forward, took the other person's right hand, and asked in a low voice.
She had already sensed that her husband Kiritsugu didn't like the Einzbern family. This could be seen from his deep self-blame when Illya was born. But if she left the Einzbern family, this Things, if not carefully thought out, can be very dangerous!
"because"
"I don't like you and Illya being harmed and transformed by those guys, those android guys in the Einzbern Castle who do whatever it takes to achieve their goals!"
Emiya Kiritsugu held his wife's hand tightly, and then covered it with his left hand, making their hands clasp together.
"I hope you can live a good life, just like you have been doing for more than half a month. I hope you and Illya can continue to live as normal people, instead of becoming tools and fighting for that damn Holy Grail War!"
"No matter what, I don't want either of you to be harmed in any way, and I don't want you to be burdened with something that shouldn't belong to you."
Emiya Kiritsugu stared closely into the eyes of his wife Irisviel, then let go of her hand and grabbed her shoulders instead.
He didn't want his beloved wife and daughter to have to bear that cruel fate. He could no longer bear the transformation that the Einzberns had done to Illya before she was even born! Who do they think Emiya Kiritsugu's daughter is? Could it be that she is someone they can reform and bully at will?
Thinking about the Einzbern family in the Winter Forest, a trace of resentment and helplessness flashed through Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes. If he hadn't been unable to do so, he might have left with his wife and daughter long ago. Already?
From his point of view, the Einzbern family, that famous magician who was very good at alchemy, and one of the three royal families who built the Holy Grail War system in Fuyuki City, were just a group of ruthless people living in a lunatic asylum. It's just a lunatic!
From what Emiya Kiritsugu had learned through his investigations and personal observations over the years, in fact, the head of the Einzbern family and the others were all artificial beings made by the disciples of the third magician hundreds of years ago. Even after countless years, after the creators left one after another, those artificial people still stubbornly continued to operate in order to realize the creator's unreachable ideal.
The purpose of those guys is actually to activate the Great Holy Grail, use its power to fix the hole leading to the "source", and reach the "other side". The method used for this is the third method passed down by the Einzbern family. Magic, the magic that is said to be able to achieve complete immortality, when it is completed, will there be an endless source of magic power due to the materialization of the soul?
In fact, the castle of the Einzbern family was originally just a workshop built for the disciples of the magicians who realized the third magic. Even the founders, no matter how much they tried to recreate the miracle of their master, failed. ended in failure
Even back then, they accidentally created the "Winter Saint" Justeza, an individual who was the same as the master as an alternative plan. They wanted to use that individual to reproduce the magic, but because it was an accident, magic later No matter how hard the engineers tried, they could not create another artificial human of the same level.
Therefore, hundreds of years later, the magicians had to succumb to reality, some left the castle, and some took their own lives in despair.
As a result, the remaining artificial people of Einzbern Castle were abandoned by their creators, but their pure idea, the remaining workshop established by the magicians for the salvation of mankind and the reproduction of miracles, was Continue to operate, and this is the so-called Einzbern family!
Since then, the androids created by Einzbern have been frantically creating androids based on Justeza.
And his wife of Emiya Kiritsugu, Irisviel von Einzbern, is a cyborg! At the same time, she is also one of the artificial humans made from the prototype of Justisar Reich von Einzbern. She is also a tragic tool with a purpose determined from birth. Holy Grail!
Of course, this even includes his daughter Illya
These things he, Emiya Kiritsugu, had taken advantage of the chaos caused by the recent great turmoil in the magic world to steal from the Magic Association, from the Einzbern family, and in the past half month or so, from the declining Matou family. The cruel facts deduced from the collected intelligence.
In short, Emiya Kiritsugu will never allow his wife and daughter to become the tools of the Einzbern family and exist as a Holy Grail that everyone strives for, absolutely not!
He absolutely does not want to see his wife, his daughter Ilia, like the dead Winter Saint Justeza, who were both created and sacrificed as living magic circuits in order to become the core of the Great Holy Grail. !
The reason why Emiya Kiritsugu was able to make up his mind was precisely because, in more than half a month, he saw that his daughter Illya was finally able to be with other people, the Tohsaka family and the Tohsaka family. Like the little girls in the Edelfeld family, they really live the life that a normal little girl should have, instead of being just used as a tool, a part, and a waiting person like they did in the Einzbern Castle. Offer sacrifices at any time!
What made Emiya Kiritsugu even more angry was that intelligence showed that the so-called Holy Grail War was nothing more than a huge conspiracy triggered by the three families to achieve their own goals!
Fortunately, the head of the Tosaka family, Tokiomi Tosaka, has disappeared, or can be said to be dead. The Tosaka mansion was also destroyed by fire, and the magic inheritance was cut off, including the two daughters of the Tosaka family. They all turned to study other things. As for the Matou family, let alone Matou Zangyan. It is said that he was killed by the summoned servant, and it is said that he died miserably? The current head of the family, Matou Tsuruno, is a guy with no magic circuits and only cares about having fun! And Matou Kariya, who has a magic circuit, doesn't like magic at all. From this, it can be seen that the decline of the Matou family will only happen within one or two generations, and nothing will change.
And the only remaining Einzbern family, with them, will never be able to sustain the Holy Grail War. Emiya Kiritsugu also vaguely has a way to deal with them. If they want to stop him from ruining everything, if.
""
"Kiritsugu, I'm glad you can think of us, but it may be useless. As long as the Holy Grail War continues, we will have no way to escape."
After Irisviel looked at her husband with some emotion, she had to lower her head sadly. She understands what the other person is thinking and her daughter's situation, but there are some things that they cannot resist with their own abilities.
Both she and her daughter are actually closely linked to the Holy Grail War. This is their fate, and they cannot break away or escape.
"As long as you want it, I can do it!"
"Please believe me, Ellie, I can do it, I promise!"
Emiya Kiritsugu took a deep breath, and then hugged the other person tightly.
""
"Kiritsugu, just do whatever you want. We are a family now, aren't we? So, no matter what happens in the end, Illya and I will bear it with you!"
"I understand thank you, Ellie!"
"Thank you too, Kiritsugu."
Report to the little master, the little one discovered that there seems to be a couple of dogs and a man and a woman dating in the back mountain on your property?
When the first competition of the Holy Grail War entered the preparation stage, Tibbers suddenly made a small report to his little master.
Shut up! Tibbers!
Now Annie has no time to care about her little bear, and she has no time to care about any idiots. She has a more important thing now, which is to preside over the first day of the fourth Holy Grail War!
"Have you all got your numbers?"
"Then you should quickly take your seats and replace your servant figure with one of the chess pieces! Don't worry, no one except you can see which flag you have replaced your servant with!"
"Then you guys, hurry up and start, I don't have time to waste time here with you!"
It didn't take long, just a short while later, after Anne explained the rules and impatiently scolded, the results of the draw for today's alternative first Holy Grail War came out quickly, and the grouping of the competition Then they are:
Group 1: Tohsaka Sakurama Kiriya
Group 2: Elijah Kenneth
Group 3: Tohsaka Rinyu and Ryunosuke
Group 4: Luvia Weber
Although the combination situation is a little weird, because they drew the numbers themselves, no one thinks too much about other places for the time being.
"Very good, very good. This competition is fair!"
"Furthermore, Annie, your magic is very interesting. From my perspective, this powerful and exquisite use of magic is beyond my ability."
"Although I will also make some gem magic gifts with wisdom, I can't imagine that such a simple clay figurine has such an effect."
He reached out and picked up a chess piece, and after looking at it closely for a while, Gemstone Onkishua nodded with emotion, fully agreeing with the game and the rules.
He thinks this competition is really good!
Moreover, whether you are the master of SR or the servant of SR, both parties participate and interact with each other, which is good! Thinking about it, the purpose of this game should be a battle of wits rather than strength. Didn't that little guy just mess around as he had feared before?
"That's right, there is no way to cheat in something like chess. This is a consideration of character and wisdom. This is indeed fair!"
Putting down the clay figurine chess piece that was struggling and insulting him in his hand, the gem man smiled cheerfully at Annie with joy. He likes this competition very much, and his own chess skills are not bad. Later, he can go to inspect and observe, and he can definitely play the role of supervision and referee.
Anyway, he liked today's game very much, and it suited him very well.
Yes, it is indeed fair! The second-level advanced wisdom endowed by advanced life magic, and the chess skills of such a chess general, I am afraid that even an old man like you cannot play, right? Otherwise, why couldn't the four little guys get a piece of the lottery, but they were competing against the other four adults?
How can you, a stupid old man like you, not see something so obvious?
Tibbers sneered disdainfully. He could tell at a glance that his little master liked to trick people openly like this! Later, when the generals gave orders, the old man probably thought it was the chess players themselves who gave the orders, right?
Humph, stupid humans on earth, they are actually not playing chess with a few little girls, but playing chess with the master chess piece of a high-level magical intelligent life!
This situation must have been planned by Tibbers' little master a long time ago, and he also secretly made trouble to prevent the four guys from getting together as a group. He was not worried about what big trouble they would cause after they cheated on each other, and then Destroy her Lady Queen Anne?
"The red side goes first!"
"Hey! That stupid guy over there, do you know how to do it? If not, just give up and get out. I have to go back for lunch later!"
Annie jumped off the boulder angrily and cursed at a guy with short, straight black hair who had just sat down and was about to start the game without authorization.
The guy named Weber was the one who delayed time just now and was the last one to come. But now, he is clearly the Blue Fang and he actually dares to go first. Why should he be so shameless?
"When you're ready, start quickly. If you can't do it, give in early. Anyway, I won't mind!"
Now the result of the draw is four minors versus four majors. Yes, Anne arranged it this way on purpose!
Drawing lots or something was just a formality. She had already used the magic secret box to operate it in private. When those guys drew lots, there was no font size on it at all. Only when they opened it, Anne showed it. The number she wanted!
This is just like the football tickets in each issue on TV or the lottery in shopping malls. They are just put up to fool the audience and deceive people. Others have the final say on who wins! Uncle Colson had already told her about this basic shady knowledge when she was in SHIELD, and now she just learned it and applied it.
"Don't dawdle, start quickly!"
"I'm telling you, the four guys from the blue side should be honest. If you lose to the four little ones, you will have no shame in being human."
Annie continues to put pressure on some guys, and she does it on purpose.
"Think about it, you guys in your teens and twenties, if you can't play chess with a few five, six, or seven-year-old little girls, then what's the point of coming to the competition? Why don't you just admit defeat and go back?" Home is better!"
After seeing that the two sides finally started to play chess back and forth, Annie walked around the four chess tables made of hardened soil while disturbing the four guys who didn't like her without leaving any words. .
"snort!"
After Kenneth glanced at a little girl walking behind him, he snorted dissatisfiedly.
He didn't think he would lose to the Einzbern man-made on the other side!
Because he himself is a senior lecturer of the Magic Association and a magic genius. He is also proficient in chess, as well as Chinese chess and Go in the East. Therefore, he firmly believes that he will definitely not lose to such a young girl. of.
There's no way, Director Ken is just so confident!
""
However, compared to his mentor's confidence, Weber on the side did not speak.
He has just taken two steps now and is racking his brains to calculate. Although he has not played much Chinese chess, he also knows a little bit about the rules and classic moves. If he is serious about calculating, he will probably It won't be much harder than the kind of chess they are good at, and there is a little bit of certainty that they can win the little guy opposite.
Just like what the young referee just said, he is a top student in the Magic Association, and he is ten years older than the opponent. If he can't beat a little girl, then he may really have no shame in being a human being. If nothing else, go back When the time came, I had to be laughed out of my head by that conquering king Iskandar!
"asshole!"
"I don't understand these crappy things at all!"
On the other side, Ryuunosuke Umasu was in a much more embarrassed state because he couldn't fight at all. He had just been eaten by the enemy as a pawn in the middle, and now, he was using his own horse to fight. Drive the opponent's artillery away from the dangerous position in the middle!
He doesn't like this game at all. He, Ryunosuke Amekawa, is good at murder, arson, and abusing his own prisoners. He is really not good at this kind of trick played by children who need to calm down and think! In particular, the little kid opposite him who made up the numbers could be so powerful and yet he didn't give him any face?
He had already decided in his heart that he would not let him catch the opportunity. Otherwise, after catching the opponent, he would have to sacrifice it to Father Qingxu, and give the magic book bound in human skin to absorb the fearful soul and spirit. All the magic is gone!
If there is a chance, the other three sitting across from the chessboard will also be captured!
Of course, there is also the hateful little guy who just walked over. Although the opponent looks very powerful, there will always be times when he is unprepared, right? Therefore, as long as the timing is right, he feels that he and Father Qingxu will always have a chance.
little Master! That Huang Mao just had some bad ideas against you again. His evil thoughts have enveloped you and your little apprentices. Is there really no need to kill him now?
"
When Annie walked around and walked away, Tibbs suddenly asked curiously.
Today, that yellow hair has been malicious to its little master or other little guys many times. According to the past methods of its lawless little master, it should have been burned down long ago. Why is it today? , but have always ignored it?
"I've already said it, I can still use him if I keep him!"
In fact, the main reason is that a seven-person game might not be fun if one person is missing?
Besides, it was pitiful for such a good villain to be alive, so Annie just generously let him live for a few more days. This was not a big deal, and there was nothing to make a fuss about.
"Tibbers, who do you think will score the highest score today?"
After finding a place to sit down and taking out a bag of French fries snacks to start nibbling and waiting, Annie was bored and looked at the serious guys competing in the distance, while privately asking her little bear road.
She suddenly felt that today's competition was not exciting enough. When it was her turn to give the question the day after tomorrow, she would have to think of a more intense one. She must not let those guys just sit there and waste time.
Anyway, it will definitely not be that Tohsaka Rin! Regarding the questions asked by his little master, Tibbers was very determined and only acknowledged one point!
""
"Tibbers, you have really turned bad! That guy Rin has no points at all, so of course it can't be her!"
With one hand holding a bag of French fries, she brought it to her mouth and gnawed it. The other hand picked up the neck of her little bear, and Annie glared at him hatefully.
However, Tibbs ignored his little master and remained silent, not wanting to express any more opinions on the issue just now.
"Guess again. If you guess right, there will be a reward!"
After thinking about it, Annie could only say seductively.
What exactly are rewards? !
"Like giving you a holiday? But, if you guess wrong, you will be punished!"
Anne said with some hesitation, a long vacation is absolutely impossible, but a short vacation should be possible, right? For example, when you are sleeping, let the other person go out and play around all night?
Little master, please don’t lie to me again.
"Huh? When did I lie to you again?"
Annie was a little angry. She had just thought that as long as the little bear guessed correctly, she would be rewarded!
As long as those four idiots lose, they will lose three points, so the final scores must be the same for more than two! Therefore, there is absolutely no one with the highest score today, so I won’t be fooled by you again!
Tibbers, who has learned a lot from adversity and has been deceived or seen others being deceived countless times, can see the trap of this guessing bet at a glance. Anyway, it will definitely not be easily fooled!
"Yes"
"Then guess who has the lowest score?"
No guessing! There must be a few with zero points, none of them have the lowest score!
"Damn it! You won't die if you take a guess!"
If you guess, you won't die, but if you guess, you will definitely be wrong, and if you are wrong, you will definitely be punished!
""
"Tibbers, you have really turned evil!"
Well done, I actually learned this from you!
"Hmph! Remember it!"
stop!
Matou Kariya, you idiot! idiot! Don't touch my little soldier yet. Didn't you see her war horse staring at me over there? Hurry up, get out of the car, and hold that point for me first, don't let her take over!
On Matou Kariya's chessboard, his coach, the little figure Jin Shining, was giving orders to him with his mind, and sternly asked him to follow the opponent's instructions.
Now, although Matou Kariya has been pretending to keep an eye on the chessboard, he is actually playing the role of a microphone. All moves and thoughts are made by the golden Gilgamesh who is standing in the main position. In progress.
That King of Heroes was indeed a bit serious. After knowing the rules of chess, he pondered for a short while and then he was able to play the game in a decent way. He also sternly rejected Matou Kariya's plan to play by himself many times. and tips.
Of course, due to the existence of magic, the opponent, the little girl Sakura, cannot see any of Jin Shining's actions or words. In fact, no one can see it until he eats the heroic spirit servant who has been replaced as a chess piece. As for what arrangements and actions the opponent has made, Anne's magic is still very reliable.
After all, as for cheating and other things, it is enough to have a coach who can play chess. For other things, there is no need to go so far.
"All right"
"Then, Lord Gilgamesh, please do it yourself. I'll just watch and say nothing. Anyway, you are replacing a general, and it doesn't matter whether your position is exposed or not."
After several times trying to make plans or give the opposite Sakura a step or two, but the other party saw through it and stopped him rudely, Matou Kariya finally didn't want to waste time, so he simply waved his hands and motioned for the other party to go alone. Come on, to save him from being scolded all day long.
snort! Then you idiot, just stay aside and watch!
Gilgamesh didn't trust his SR to begin with, and his personality was even more incompatible with him! Therefore, he was happy and relaxed that the opponent finally stopped causing trouble for him, and he continued to focus on directing the chess pieces to move continuously on the chessboard.
After all, with his ability and wisdom as the King of Heroes, he didn't think he would lose to a little girl in such a small game!
oops! cherry! Your horse was eaten by the opponent!
The little figure on the chessboard, Medusa, turned around in surprise and yelled at her SR Sakura, feeling depressed that her red side's horse knight was eaten!
"Of course I know!"
Sakura herself felt a little aggrieved. She thought that the horse was just a gift to the other side for nothing, and she felt distressed for a long time!
Then you still go like that?
Little Medusa was very puzzled. Is this method of giving chess pieces to others a little too silly? So, she turned back now, looked at the handsome man in the middle of the handsome tent, and cast a suspicious and threatening look.
If they lose, she will encourage her sr to throw the other person into the river so that he will never come back!
"But our commander-in-chief arranged it this way, and I can't do anything about it myself!"
Sakura had always followed the action instructions of Commander Red. She didn't know why the other party did what he did. Anyway, she just passively carried out the instructions.
Is that guy okay?
Medusa was very suspicious. Looking at the current chessboard, it was obvious that the red side was relatively passive, while the blue side was starting to become aggressive.
Don't panic, this is the way to advance! There is a saying in the art of war: Use retreat to advance, use detours to move forward, and use step by step to make camp. Only in this way can you defeat the enemy inadvertently and win! There is great wisdom in this, just wait and see!
However, the guys from the other side are coming to general!
Medusa retorted on the spot.
The general on the opposite side is too eager for success and greedy for petty profits. He is not a handsome man!
He is a general, not a handsome man like you
I am confident that I can take his head within ten steps!
""
Why does this guy talk so weirdly?
"I don't know either"
"But does it feel powerful? Anyway, we're not very good at playing, so why not just rely on it?"
If she was playing with her little sisters, Sakura could play casually by herself, but now, the other party is Uncle Matou Kariya, and that shining golden servant, so he must be more powerful than them. Just like now, if she was the one doing it, she would lose!
But now are we doing nothing? Look, it sent me up again, I'm going to die, I'm going to die
The artillerymen replaced by Medusa were sent to the opposite battlefield, and she quickly screamed to Sakura for help. If she is beaten to death later, one point will be deducted!
"What can we do now?"
Sakura is a little helpless. She seems to be unable to do anything but wait for victory, right?
Aren’t you very familiar with the guy across from you named Matou Kariya? Say something nice quickly to distract him! Or, let him admit defeat on his own initiative?
Just listen to me and tell him like this!
Medusa began to support Sakura vigorously.
"Is this really good?"
Do you want to lose or win?
"Of course I want to win!"
Then do as I say!
"Oh well"
Finally, Sakura nodded and agreed to the opponent's approach of taking down the enemy's general outside the chessboard and adopting a heart attack strategy?
"Uncle Kariya, how about you just admit defeat quietly?"
Finally, after thinking about it, Sakura began to whisper cutely to Uncle Kariya Matou, the chess player opposite her.
""
Matou Kariya didn't dare to talk, because now, it's not him at all, but the Hero King Gilgamesh who he chose to replace the red general! If he dares to mess around, when the game is over, the opponent will have to kill him with random swords!
In this kind of game where there was no way to let go, he could only pretend that he couldn't hear what the opponent said, and just silently followed Gilgamesh's instructions and pretended to give orders to the chess pieces.
He could admit defeat himself, but he really didn't dare to admit defeat under the King of Heroes' parchment.
"Hmph! Uncle Kariya, you have turned evil!"
"I want to go back and tell Mom Kui. I want to tell her that you bullied me and refused to let me compete!"
This idea was actually instigated by Medusa just now, but now, Sakura thinks she might actually do that?
"Hello!"
"Uncle Kariya, is your master your servant? Or is it something else? That's okay, right?"
Sakura began to get angry and mess around, and she replaced her Medusa with a cannon. As for the Marshal, this secret cheating weapon, she would not replace it under any circumstances! She didn't need to think about it, but she knew that Illya, Luvia and Sister Rin next to her must be the same as her!
And those bad guys must be the replacement coaches, right?
After all, that way, they can save themselves the trouble of protecting two chess pieces and can concentrate on playing chess? As everyone knows, if they do that, they no longer have a master-level cheating tool!
"that"
"I'm sorry, Sakura, this is a competition, it's really not convenient for me to let you."
In fact, Matou Kariya wanted to cry because he didn't care about winning or losing, but Gilgamesh would definitely not give up!
"hateful!"
"Uncle Kariya, you are so annoying!"
Leave that guy alone!
cherry! Hurry up and think of a way, our idiot commander is going to fight me again, we are about to lose a point!
For victory, this sacrifice is worth it!
Damn it, I have to sacrifice you, leave me alone!
""
"Dad Qingxu, what should I do? I really can't play chess."
Ah! I don’t know how to do this either!
However, it doesn’t matter even if you lose! Because, Ryunosuke, you will never know who I saw in the box just now!
SR Gildray, who had replaced the coach, turned to look at the chessboard next to him, where Illya was playing chess with Kenneth intently. Presumably, the opponent's coach must be his Joan of Arc, right?
It's so good
His Joan of Arc, who was holier than God, was finally seen by him again!
But, I wonder if she still recognizes herself? Now, SR Gildre was no longer in the mood to play chess, and just let Ryunosuke play randomly. He just wanted to see his Joan of Arc as soon as possible, that's all.
Remember to vote, vote, vote
