Next, Shen Er, what's your business?

Chapter 343 Artoria's New Job

Observer?
Watcher?

what is that?
As far as Shen Er knows, Xingyue World does have a setting about Watcher, from "Fate strange fake", it is a special job summoned by Hisau Maiya's son Sigma in the special Holy Grail War held in Snowfield City, USA Servants, job abilities and real names of servants are temporarily unknown, but no matter how you look at it, they are not related to the employees of the restraining force.

So, what happened to this observer in Artoria?Is it a new type of work that Alaya just came up with?
To Shen Er's surprise, this casual joke actually hit the mark, the observer is indeed Alaya's new type of work.

Unlike the scavengers and guardians who eliminate the causes of human destruction, the nature of the observer's work is not so bloody, and it has a very high degree of autonomy.Their job is as the name suggests—to observe and to make judgments.

There are too many uncertain things in the world, even Gaia and Alaya, who straddle the past and the future, are far away from omniscience and omnipotence.For the factors that are sure to destroy the earth or human beings, the two major restraining forces can dispatch thugs without hesitation to obliterate them, such as a white dog called "primate killer" or a melee archer wearing a red coat.

But for some uncertain matters, the restraining force cannot make an immediate decision.Generally speaking, the two major restraining forces will stay on the sidelines, and if there is a sign of destruction, they will be killed immediately.

However, recently, the suppression force seems to have encountered a very special situation. It can neither directly send thugs as before, nor can it stand still and wait for signs to be sent.In order to deal with this situation, a new type of work "observer" came into being.

They are special commissioners of the suppression force, who go to the first scene of a special event, observe the situation as the eyes of the suppression force, and make a decision. Are they on the sidelines?Is it interference?Or obliterate.

The selection criteria of observers are much stricter than that of thugs.As long as the thugs can fight, they are obedient.Observers are not the same, the nature of their work determines that they must have enough capital to bear the burden of restraining force.

Needless to say strength and experience, temperament must also be noble, able to stick to one's heart and not be moved by external things.In addition, the eyesight, wisdom or feeling to judge the changing situation are also required.According to Artoria herself, she was selected because of her ability to partially predict the future—“intuition.”This time, she was invited to act because of the "intuition".

With such strict selection criteria for observers, their treatment is naturally much higher than that of thugs.

Taking the Alaya side as an example, if the "guardian" is a slave who has signed a contract of sale and has no rights and interests, and is allowed to be exploited, then the "observer" is a senior employee who has signed an employment contract with favorable conditions.There is no prostitution, no endless overtime, you can choose the job content selectively, and you will get paid after completing the task.

More importantly, Artoria said that this was her first mission. She signed the employment contract for 500 years, and only once did one mission. Suddenly, she felt a little worthless for a certain red archer.

After understanding the nature of the watcher, Shen Er's first reaction was this, and his second reaction was - with this kind of treatment, it is not unacceptable to work for the restraining force.

Next, he asked the last doubt:
"By the way, what kind of existence do you have now? Do you exist in the Seat of Heroes like Heroic Spirits?"

"No, I didn't become a heroic spirit. Before I was summoned by you, I stayed in Avalon."

"That's it, you didn't become a Heroic Spirit... Wait a minute, what did you just say? Say it again."

Arturia's answer made Shinji wonder if there was something wrong with his hearing.

"I said, I didn't become a heroic spirit. Before I was summoned by you, I stayed in Avalon. Is there anything wrong?"

"No, not at all, it's just too right, there's nothing more right than that."

Confirming that he heard correctly, Shen Er laughed out of excitement, like a madman, almost insane, that wild laughter echoed in the villa through the closed room.

The "mother and daughter" who were playing hide-and-seek in the living room raised their heads when they heard the laughter.

Jack said, "Dad has such an ugly smile."

Sixth Director Lingxia said: "It's hard to hear, but it also looks very happy."

"Is mom happy?"

"Of course mother is happy, because mother has Jack."

"Jack is also very happy, because Jack has a mother, and I don't know why his father is so happy."

Why is Shinji so happy?
It's very simple, because her efforts were not in vain, Artoria successfully walked down the Hill of Swords and entered Avalon, and found peace.Although I don't know why she didn't have the contract of cutting off and restraining power, but the form of the observer is quite good, at least he can see her again in this way, seeing this Kanban lady of the Fate series, and seeing the woman who took off her heavy body Lovely, true to her.

Arturia looked at the crazily laughing Master in front of her, wanted to say something but didn't speak.It's not just Shen Er who feels familiar to her, she also feels as if she has met Shen Er somewhere, and as time goes by, as the conversation deepens, the sense of familiarity becomes deeper and deeper.

Moreover, she could see that his smile and his joy were for her.So, she was waiting until he had laughed enough before expressing her doubts: "Master, where have we met before?"

"I've seen it before. I participated in banquets together and talked about kingly ways together. At that time, you were not what you are now, and neither am I."

"Banquet, Wang Dao, you, you are—" Artoria was suddenly in a trance.

"You may be more familiar with this look."

Hades' cloak covers Shinji's body, changing the color of Shinji's hair and eyes.In the Fourth Holy Grail War, Shinji's disguise was the same as in his previous life, and this time he is an Assassin as well, except that his hair and eyes were adjusted to Matou's dark blue by Yustissa.

"Let me introduce myself, Matou Shinji, the master of assassin Scathach, your former opponent. It's been a long time, King of Knights, I'm really glad that you can let go of your obsession."

The emerald eyes froze, existing in the depths of the sea of ​​memory, the dream-like memory peeled off the dust, and appeared in front of Artoria like a revolving lantern.

For Shinji, only four years have passed since the Holy Grail War.But for Artoria, more than 500 years have passed.

It was a dream on the Hill of Swords, a dream that allowed her frozen time to flow again; it was a lifetime of fighting with her, a memory that was as precious as the past of the Knights of the Round Table.

Even if the vicissitudes of life change and the times change, it will still not be diluted, let alone forgotten.

In that dream, she met the golden dictator King of Heroes, she met the bold and unrestrained tyrant King Conqueror, she met the queen who ruled the inhuman country, and she met the Celtic ancestor "Glorious Appearance" , she also met the first knight under her command, and untied each other's knots.

In addition to these heroes who have left traces in the long river of history, there is another person who left a deep impression on her.He is the most mysterious of all Masters, and also the strangest.

It's obviously the assassin group, but it can't do assassination.

She is clearly an enemy, but she has repeatedly asked her followers to save her from times of crisis.

He affirmed his royal way, but denied her wish, sowing a seed for her to understand her heart.

She clearly remembered that before the final battle, his follower, the legendary queen, had said that he had secretly done many things for her.She once wanted to ask clearly, but she didn't have time, so she could only keep his special in mind.

Now she finally met him again.

"Long time no see, this time, we are not opponents, but companions."

He held out his hand to her, and she took his.

PS: Although it's a bit literary, but I was moved by the way it was written, it's a fool, a fool who understands people's hearts.

　Since the second is familiar, why do you have to take off the mask to recognize it?Because I didn't realize it, and seeing illustrations and seeing real people are two different things. You may not recognize your favorite celebrities when they change clothes, not to mention the distance between dimensions.
