Chapter 1203

Fuyuki's Tiger: "People's Teacher, that must be Teacher Kuzuki!"

People's Teacher: "..."

Rin Tohsaka: "Not speaking? It really is Teacher Kuzuki."

Caster: "Master Souichirou, have you finally joined the group!"

People's Teacher: "..."

Homurahara Academy, faculty office.

Regarding this suddenly appearing projection screen, Kuzuki Souichirou didn't show it on his face, but inwardly he had raised his vigilance to the highest level, and his entire body's muscles were in a state ready to explode at any moment.

He carefully looked around, confirming that other teachers couldn't see this screen.

Winter break was about to end, and they, the teachers, had all come early today to prepare.

"Um, Teacher Kuzuki."

Just then, Fujimura Taiga found Kuzuki Souichirou and winked: "Can you come here for a moment? I have something to find you for."

"..."

Ignoring Fujimura Taiga's antics, Kuzuki Souichirou still followed her.

He also wanted to figure out what this thing was.

The two went all the way to the roof, and Fujimura Taiga tried to explain the quiz group to Kuzuki Souichirou as briefly as possible.

Although it was a bit vague, Kuzuki Souichirou barely understood.

A group connecting parallel worlds, able to see things that will happen in the future.

It sounded like a fantasy, but now the facts were right in front of him, and he couldn't help but believe it.

And that one called Caster, in another world, he actually proposed to her.

Love, huh...

Never thought he would possess such a thing...

【Ding! The first question is about to begin!】

【This question is a multiple-choice question, please watch the following video and then make the correct judgment.】

【Quiz time is 1 minute, correct answer rewards 1 Saint Quartz, wrong answer deducts 1 Saint Quartz.】

【The video starts now, please pay attention to the video.】

【Rin Tohsaka and Emiya Shirou walk dejectedly on the empty street, licking each other's wounds (that is, comforting each other).】

【They can be said to have failed completely in this battle with Caster; not only was Artoria not saved, but Sister Taiga's magic was not dispelled, and Archer also chose to betray them, kicking Rin Tohsaka out of the game.】

【That they can save their lives now is all thanks to Caster's kindness.】

【The exhausted two sat down in a graveyard and began to reflect back-to-back.】

Caules: "It's truly lonely."

Caster: "Hehe, I still like to see your unruly expressions."

Rin Tohsaka: "You guy, you got the benefit and are still acting smug!"

【The night view is not bad, a crescent moon hangs in the sky, and brilliant stars fill the horizon.】

【Looking at this beautiful night sky, both of them felt the pain of their wounds decrease a lot.】

【Emiya Shirou is very confused, not knowing what to do next, and can only let himself forget everything for now and look up at this beautiful night sky.】

【Rin Tohsaka's thoughts are also completely scattered.】

【She still hasn't figured out why Archer would betray her; is she really that bad?】

【Rin Tohsaka kept asking and answering herself in her heart, asking herself with emotions of self-blame, guilt, unwillingness, annoyance, and "shut up".】

【"Um, Tohsaka, what are you saying..."】

【Hearing Rin Tohsaka's movement, Emiya Shirou also came back to his senses and asked in a low voice.】

【Rin Tohsaka: "..... Nothing, just talking to myself."】

【Emiya Shirou: "..."】

【Rin Tohsaka: "... I might have made a mistake."】

【"If I had followed what Archer said and defeated Caster by any means necessary from the beginning, it would have been fine."】

【"I cared about small sacrifices and calculated the chances of success. As a result..."】

【"If this continues, everyone here will become a sacrifice."】

Archer: "(~︶~)"

Hmm, not bad.

Although she didn't hit the point, at least she realized where the disagreement between her and him was.

【Rin Tohsaka: "I don't mean to complain... I always mess up the most important things, even though I can do the secondary things well, but I always fail at the critical moment... drop the chain..."】

【At this moment, Rin Tohsaka hates herself for not being good enough.】

【It's all her own fault for not being good enough that Archer chose to do this.】

【She didn't blame Archer, because rationally speaking, it's normal for a Servant to do this, to choose this; it's the most normal thing.】

【"Archer turning to the enemy is not entirely his responsibility. In the end, I was the one who left Caster alone. However..."】

【Rin Tohsaka was silent for a long time and mocked herself: "Really, I just said those words, and suddenly I'm forced into a dead end."】

【She just boasted about defeating the enemy with Archer, and now it's turned out like this...】

【Emiya Shirou: "..."】

【Rin Tohsaka: "..."】

【"Hey, you should have asked further here!"】

【Emiya Shirou: "Ah? Um... what are you forced into a dead end by? Tohsaka."】

【Rin Tohsaka: "Yeah, I said I didn't want to regret it. Although he said I'm not the type of person to regret, this is a critical moment. After hearing what you said, I feel even more like I've failed and fallen into depression."】

【Emiya Shirou: "(─. ─||)"】

【Although he doesn't understand what Rin Tohsaka is saying, Archer was right; she really is the type of person who will never regret.】

Fuyuki's Tiger: "Oh my! Shirou, you guy, how did you become a block of wood at this time!"

Illya: "Hehe, it seems Shirou in every world is the same, just as dull."

Househusband: "(─__─)"

【Emiya Shirou: "That's only for now. Although I'm unhappy, I agree with Archer's opinion; you don't need to reflect at all."】

【Rin Tohsaka: "... Why? Now not only is Caster doing whatever she wants, but even Archer has abandoned me. Isn't it all because my policy was wrong?"】

【Emiya Shirou: "It's just a failure, it's not your fault. Because there's no mistake, you can hold your head high even if you fail."】

【"I won't regret it either, believing that my actions are correct."】

【Failure doesn't mean you did anything wrong.】

【A person walking on the right path, doing the right thing, that is correct.】

【Rin Tohsaka: "..."】

【Although it sounds like Emiya Shirou's life portrait, it made Rin Tohsaka feel much better.】

Fuyuki's Tiger: "Sorry, I spoke too soon (〃^▽^〃)."

This kid Shirou, isn't he quite good at flirting?

It seems this kid is just pretending to be serious usually.

【After settling their mood, the two returned to the Emiya house together.】

【They need to recuperate well now.】

【Taking this opportunity, Rin Tohsaka also guided Emiya Shirou to learn the correct techniques for using Projection Magic and explained the basic concepts and fantasy logic of Projection Magic to him one by one.】

【Willpower is firm, and fantasy experience is rich.】

【Emiya Shirou's ability to project Kanshou and Bakuya before was actually just imitating Archer; he didn't even know what Kanshou and Bakuya were.】

【To learn and succeed, one must have one's own projection; this cannot be rushed.】

【At the same time, the two didn't give up on dealing with Caster; after all, Sister Taiga is still in a coma.】

【After some discussion, the two finally decided to go to the Einzbern Castle to ask Illya for help.】

【After all, there is no other way now.】

Illya: "Hehe, Shirou really can't leave me in the end."

Rin Tohsaka: "Hehe, you better be careful not to fall."

Illya: "Absolutely impossible, because Berserker is the strongest!"

Uncle B: "AAAAAAAA——"
