Chapter 1767

"Oh my... no, it's just some ordinary low-alcohol fruit juice, Sakura... sleep here with Brother."

"Oh..."

Sakura Tohsaka lay obediently on his lap.

And soon fell asleep.

And Su Liu also played a trick, and followed her into sleep.

She didn't want to be criticized and educated.

If she came over, she would probably be lectured, so she brought Aoi Tohsaka's daughter with her.

Hee hee.

Looking at the two sleeping soundly.

Artoria asked: "You said before that our world has big problems, may I ask... what are they? Can I understand a bit..."

"Uh... answering this seems a bit difficult, however... I have a question I want you to think about. Perhaps then you will understand..."

"Go ahead..."

"Why do you think many heroes died at their peak?"

A breeze blew by.

Artoria's drunkenness was instantly dispelled.

She asked with a trembling voice: "Could it be... could it be..."

"Hmm, not bad... just as you thought, King Arthur perished at her peak, becoming a Heroic Spirit to continue serving the planet. Once...

I remember there was another Saber who was like this too.

Her name was Nero.

She also died at her peak, and even... Gilgamesh!

Enkidu..."

Accompanying one familiar name after another.

Artoria couldn't help but feel a bit horrified.

Why would it be like this.

Why did these people encounter these things at their peak.

"So, it wasn't an accident at all, but fate controlling everything... specifically, it's the Counter Force, right? Just like the moment I was defeated.

The voice that appeared in my ears."

Su Han took out a tea snack, put it in his mouth, and nodded: "Just as you thought... the one actually manipulating the world is the Counter Force.

Maintaining the operation of the planet.

Maintaining the running of the planet.

However... you have to consider one question, once the power that manipulates the world possesses emotions, then this world must have problems... therefore, such things would happen.

Including the child I saved.

Shirou Emiya, in the future, because he wants to save people in the fire, will use his own soul as a contract and become a worker for the Counter Force.

Heh... now you understand, right?

There are actually very few people who can face death with an open mind, because your fate was already in the hands of the Counter Force.

Like puppets with strings pulled.

At the mercy of the other party's pulling..."

Artoria agreed with this very much.

Thinking about it is terrifying.

Actually, there were signs from the birth of the Holy Grail.

It's just that she didn't think deeply about it.

Now awakened by Su Han, she finally understood the terrifying aspect of the matter.

Perhaps her own kingdom was also under the other party's manipulation.

Heh... how ridiculous.

"Don't blame the Counter Force... the other party's existence is transcendent to the world, it just wants to live... therefore, your struggle has no meaning."

"Hmph... but this feeling is not good at all!"

Artoria rolled her eyes at him.

At the same time, she ended the conversation.

And Su Han also didn't continue to communicate.

Sometimes stopping at the right point.

Is actually a good thing.

Several people sat like this until the next day.

When dawn arrived.

Artoria, taking advantage of everyone being asleep, asked in a low voice: "Can you tell me... why did you save me? There are so many Heroic Spirits more powerful than me that could be saved..."

"Because I have always liked you..."

The sincere tone was convincing.

The Saber's face was a bit flushed.

Her eyes were no longer sharp.

Su Han put Sakura Tohsaka aside and beckoned to her.

As a result, Artoria was scared like a little rabbit and jumped away.

"Hahahaha..."

"What are you laughing at? I'm not like those women who are easily deceived by you, if you want my embrace, wait until later... you bad man..."

Saying that, Artoria jumped down directly.

And then passed through the portal.

Heading to Mondstadt.

When she arrived in the city, she realized her face was incomparably hot.

For so many years.

This was the first time she had been treated as a woman.

Even Kiritsugu Emiya treated her as a powerful tool.

But Su Han was different, that was the gaze of a man admiring a woman.

Although it was the first time she felt it.

But she enjoyed it very much.

"Give me some more time... perhaps, I will adapt slowly... being an ordinary woman is actually not bad..."

Artoria muttered in her heart.

At the same time, she arrived at the Knights of Favonius to officially report.

Jean saw her arrival and directly appointed her to a position.

"From today on, you are the third Deputy Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, with the title: Knight of Stars!"

"Yes, from now on we are colleagues..."

The Saber shook hands with Grand Master Jean...

The two of them could be considered to have established a relationship.

Slowly she began to get familiar with her duties.

At this time, Lisa came into the room and said to Jean: "The Sabzeruz Festival is about to begin... from today we will start screening the participants, Artoria, do you want to participate?"

"May I ask... what are the benefits of participating in this?"

The Saber asked in confusion.

Lisa explained: "You can spar with experts from various countries, and secondly, you can earn points... and points can be exchanged for anything!"

"If that's the case... then I'll participate!"

Since she came to this world.

Then she would just go with the flow.

Not just Mondstadt City.

Other places also began to conduct selections.
