"Bang bang bang..."
The sound of gunfire continued to resound on the shooting training range. Without any accident, all the moving shooting targets used for training were penetrated by bullets with ten-ring accuracy.
"Huh, huhu..."
After completing another perfect training, the man put down the gun in his hand, panting slightly as he tried to recover from his disordered breathing.
While moving at high speed, he accurately shot more than thirty moving shooting targets, and it only took him one minute and ten seconds to do it.
This was an extremely good result. However, the man seemed dissatisfied: "I haven't held a gun for a long time. Although I still have shooting experience and have recovered a bit after training, my body movements are still a little behind what's going on in my mind." The idea..."
"Kiritsugu, don't worry, you are still top-notch when it comes to shooting and assassination."
Kuon Maiya, who was setting up the venue, came around behind the man, opened her arms and gently hugged the man's waist.
"Maiya..."
"Dad, Aunt Maiya, the Heroic Spirit Summoning Array has been set up... Hey, uh, sorry, I suddenly feel a little stomachache. I need to go to the toilet first."
A boy with reddish-brown hair broke into the training range, and when he saw the woman inside hugging his father from behind, he backed out at an extremely fast speed.
And less than twenty seconds later, after he walked out in front, a man and a woman also came out from behind. The man's face looked a little unnatural.
"Hey, is this all over?"
The young man asked this question, and the next moment after he asked, he received a knife on his head from the woman who came out.
"Shirou, children shouldn't make random arrangements about adults' matters."
This is clearly the current Emiya family. Emiya Kiritsugu, who is the owner of a logistics company and a philanthropic entrepreneur, the former killer Kuon Maiya who is the company secretary assistant and life assistant, and the man named Emiya who was adopted by Emiya. Emiya Shirou, a boy who has grown up now.
They are preparing to participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War. Yes, in the Fourth Holy Grail War, Emiya Kiritsugu, who realized that he is not a messenger of justice, has been atonement for ten years. After it was repaired and unfolded, he was immediately qualified to participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War. The bright red mark of the command spell appeared directly on the back of his hand.
After Emiya Kiritsugu received the Command Seal, he thought about quitting, but in the end he picked up the long-lost weapons again - the guns buried in the courtyard.
Avalon, a conceptual weapon and a holy relic, was once again placed in the Heroic Spirit Summoning Formation. As the chanting of the incantation was completed, the figure of the former armored beauty also appeared in front of him again.
"Saber, long time no see. How are you doing in the Hall of Valor?"
Emiya Kiritsugu was greeting an old friend.
"Emiya Kiritsugu, why is it you again? Are you involved in another Holy Grail War?"
Arturia frowned when she appeared, and when she saw a young man looking at her with monkey eyes, the King of Knights felt even more uncomfortable.
[So awesome, these are the servants that dad summoned, those legendary heroes? ! 】
Emiya Shirou was greatly shocked. Unlike his original fate, his father restricted his magic ability.
In this world after the Fourth World War, Emiya Kiritsugu gradually regarded magic as a special ability. Apart from teaching others how to use magic correctly and not thinking of himself as a magician who was superior to ordinary people, he never had any problems with his adopted son. Too many restrictions or misleading.
Therefore, the Shirou Emiya in this world today is not an ordinary person who knows nothing about magic, but a person who knows a lot about magic but has never separated himself from the level of ordinary people and whose origins are embodied magic. division.
"This is the world ten years after the Holy Grail War..."
Emiya Kiritsugu replied.
"What happened back then?"
To be honest, Artoria is still a little confused about this.
She only knew that the original Holy Grail seemed to be seriously contaminated.
But what exactly is going on inside is somewhat unclear.
"I will tell you exactly what happened back then, and now I ask you to go to a place with me to...meet someone."
"who?"
Emiya Kiritsugu paused and replied: "My wife, Irisviel."
On the way to the hospital was Kuon Maiya's car. Emiya Shirou was sitting in the front passenger seat, but he was listening with his ears perked up behind him, as his father told him about the Holy Grail War ten years ago. Some things about Zhigua.
The ending of the Fourth Holy Grail War was just finished before arriving in a single ward of a private hospital.
Emiya Kiritsugu opened the door to the ward and led his former servant, Artoria, inside.
In the ward, Irisviel, who still had vital signs, was lying on the bed like a sleeping beauty.
The sleeping face, highlighted by the moonlight that came in, showed an unhealthy thinness and paleness.
However, Irisviel has been in a vegetative state, sleeping in a hospital bed for ten years, and there is no possibility of waking up in the foreseeable future...
"Her personality was absorbed by the Holy Grail..."
Emiya Kiritsugu gently stroked his wife's face on the bed, with indescribable emotions flowing in his eyes.
"I want to take it back. This is the reason why I participated in the Fifth Holy Grail War. It is no longer because of false justice, but just for Irisviel, my wife."
Emiya Kiritsugu turned around, bent his knees and knelt down directly in front of Artori.
"I know that my request is a bit selfish for you who have a need for the Holy Grail, but I still ask you to help me. Please help me take back Irisviel's personality from the Holy Grail. Please, King of Knights."
Arturia was shocked by Dogeza's posture of kneeling down and begging. He didn't seem to be the cold man she knew.
Next to him, Shirou Emiya, who saw his father kneeling, immediately knelt down as well: "Please, hero, please save my adoptive mother."
Kuon Maiya did not kneel down, but she bowed deeply: "Please help Madam."
Artoria was a little speechless. The so-called taking back Irisviel's personality from the Holy Grail might be at the cost of destroying the Holy Grail, and she might also risk encountering the evil contaminants in the Holy Grail again. Risks are nothing good for heroic spirits.
[I really owe a debt to your whole family, so that I am asked to repay you like this? ! 】
Of course, such ruthless questioning would never be possible from Artori's mouth.
After a moment of silence, the King of Knights nodded and agreed, even if it was of no benefit to her.
"You don't have to be like this. Irisviel is also an acquaintance of mine, and I have been her knight for a few days, so it is only natural to protect her and take her back from the villain (Holy Grail)..."
Artoria, who has a need for the Holy Grail but knows that she can continue to wait, is no longer confused about whether she is a qualified king. She just wants to go back to the past and save ancient Britain at the end of the Age of Gods no matter how many reincarnations she has gone through. The King of Knights, with a clear goal, is stronger than she was in the past.
This can be seen from the fact that what she held in her hand after appearing in this world was not the invisible sword, but the holy sword that showed its appearance. And her conceptual weapon, the scabbard of Avalon, returned to her hand, and Doubling Artoria's strength.
At least, the current King of Knights would be able to fight against the King of Heroes who had become a little more serious.
"Thanks."
Emiya Kiritsugu grabbed Dier with his head to express his gratitude.
. . . .
There is a large private hospital in the suburbs of Kanfuko City, and Asakami Fujino was sent here for medical treatment.
"Does it hurt?"
The doctor who came to the ward pressed the girl's abdomen with his hands and asked.
"No pain."
Asakami Fujino shook his head. She was a painless patient, but to be precise, she was a person with tactile loss who had lost the sense of reality.
"It seems that there is nothing wrong with you."
Doctors in private hospitals made their own judgments on this.
"But, Mr. SB said I have appendicitis..."
Asagami Fujino retorted.
"Mr. SB?"
The doctor spoke with some confusion.
"Fujino!"
The head of the Asakami family was nearby and called out his stepdaughter's name somewhat harshly.
"..."
Hearing this, Asakami Fujino was a little confused and looked over.
"Is that person a doctor, or is the person in front of me a doctor?"
The head of the Asakami family lowered his tone and asked.
"The person in front of me..."
Asagami Fujino hesitated for a moment, then answered honestly.
"Then you should trust what a professional says, not what a layman says."
The head of the Asakami family said.
"But……"
"There's nothing good about it. This is the best abdominal doctor in Guanbuzi City."
The head of the Asakami family directly interrupted Asakami Fujino’s words.
"If you are worried, you can stay in the hospital for observation. I found that there are actually some other minor inflammations in your body. I can prescribe you some anti-inflammatory drugs until you recover and then discharge you."
The doctor gave another suggestion, and this suggestion was directly agreed to by the Asakami family head next to him without waiting for Asakami Fujino to express his opinion.
"That's it, doctor, I leave my daughter to you."
The man turned his head and said to his stepdaughter.
"As for the school, I will help you ask for leave. You can take good care of yourself here."
From admission examination to hospitalization observation, the whole process was completed in one go.
During this period, Asakami Fujino was not given the chance to refuse.
Both the Asakami family leader and the doctor seemed to have rehearsed the situation in advance.
We will finalize the solutions to the problems that arise in girls.
[Hide the terminal illness so that the eldest lady can live out the rest of her life without any psychological burden. The head of the family is such a good father...]
The accompanying bodyguards sighed in their hearts, and quickly arranged some luggage that they had prepared when they came over in this luxurious single room, but they looked like they wanted Asagami Fujino to be hospitalized here for a long time. .
"Then everything is left to you."
The head of the Asakami family walked out of the ward and said this to the middle-aged doctor next to him.
"Don't worry, Master Qiangami, I will do everything you asked me to do as before."
The middle-aged male doctor answered.
"For the cost of hospitalization, I will have people pay it directly at the hospital's payment gate. As for the medical company you founded privately, I will send the donated money to you in batches to support the development and research of some medical drugs. I hope you don’t let anything unexpected happen to your company account.”
"Thank you for your generosity and strong support for the medical cause, and I assure you that there is absolutely no chance of an unexpected situation."
The middle-aged doctor, or in other words, the director of this private hospital, said with a stern look on his face, patting his chest and giving assurance.
The head of the Asakami family was very satisfied with the humble attitude of the surgeon who performed the surgery on Asakami Fujino and implanted the medicine he needed into the girl's spine.
The man nodded, leaving only two female bodyguards who were called to take care of Asagami Fujino, but were actually watching over Fujino Asagami to prevent him from running out. He left the private hospital with the other male bodyguards and did not go in again. In the ward, he met his stepdaughter.
The middle-aged doctor returned to his office, feeling a little excited. It was because he took over a surgery commissioned by Asakami's family that he changed from an ordinary surgeon to the director of a private hospital today.
But now, the same opportunity appeared again, although according to the request of the Asakami family, I felt a little sorry for the girl who had appendicitis and the inflammation was already serious.
But under the offensive of money, his career may be promoted to a new level. This kind of dark matter within a wealthy family will not actually hurt his conscience.
Anyway, he was not the one who really wanted the girl to die of illness reasonably. At most, he just followed the request of the patient's family, told lies and gave up on the girl's timely treatment...
[Yes, that’s how it is. Even if the girl dies of illness in the future, you can’t blame yourself. 】
The middle-aged doctor thought so.
He took out a blank medical record file and wrote down the symptoms and drug treatment plan on it. He felt someone approaching him, and without raising his head, he handed over the written medical record file.
"Qingmei, according to the above treatment plan, you must take good care of the patients in Ward 415."
The recorded medical records were taken over, but then the middle-aged doctor heard a voice reading out what he had written.
"Illness, mental illness, anxiety disorder...
Treatment plan, drug treatment to control the condition, mainly sedatives, analgesics, sleeping pills...
Well, there is no mention of any physical diseases above, not even the possible minor inflammations of the body just mentioned?
Doctor, I don’t quite understand what’s going on with the medical records you recorded. Can you explain it to me? "
"who are you?"
The middle-aged doctor turned around and found that the guy next to him was not his assistant and lover. His expression was a little stiff, as if he had been caught doing something bad, so he asked unnaturally.
