Next, Shen Er, what's your business?

Chapter 554 Night Talk: Leticia (two chapters in one)

As soon as the subject of Leticia was brought up, Joan became overjoyed.

"She's a nice girl."

"Even if you don't tell me, I know it. Although it's a bit reckless and reckless, for an ordinary girl, to be able to hand over her body to you without hesitation, this courage is enough to make people admire."

Regarding Joan's possession body, Shen Er did not hesitate to praise her.

"In a sense, you are really alike. You got a revelation from the Lord and joined the battlefield. She heard your voice and came here resolutely."

"It's true when you say that, and we're all interested in something else."

Speaking of this, Joan couldn't help laughing out loud.

What attracts Joan is undoubtedly the modern food, transportation and various knowledge, especially mathematics, which she has never been exposed to.

It is not hard to guess what attracts Leticia, the Holy Grail War, magic, and the existence of unrealistic fantasy called servants, no matter which one is a new thing that ordinary people cannot touch.

"Wait a minute, I'll call her out right now."

"Is this okay? With me, a stranger, at such a time."

Although I can't remember what kind of character this girl is, but it's approaching midnight here, and being alone with a strange man is not like what a girl should do, let alone a missionary school background——Shenji put herself in Leticia's shoes For the sake of.

"Do not worry about it."

The girl responded, her voice was still the same, but it was obviously much weaker.The appearance is still the same, but a little more timid.

"I also want to help you and the Holy Maiden."

"Leticia?" Shinji blinked.

"That, yes. You are right, I... am Leticia."

Being stared at by a strange man, the girl clenched her fists anxiously.

"It's a little strange to say that, but it's nice to meet you."

Shen Er tried his best to look kind, not to scare the girl in front of him.

"I, too, am glad to be able to talk to Mr. Shinji in this way, because I was just watching."

"It's already amazing to be able to watch it. That kind of scene like a catastrophe can easily leave people with a shadow in their hearts."

A human being living normally in the world was suddenly possessed by a saint one day, and was also involved in the war surrounding the Holy Grail.Although the consciousness is asleep inside and there is no need to fight in person, but sometimes you will inadvertently see some unbearable cruel scenes.

In response to Shinji's exclamation, Leticia showed a soft smile slightly different from Jeanne's - she had exactly the same appearance, but the atmosphere was obviously different.

"It's all right now, the Holy Maiden has always been very concerned about me. And everyone is a very good person, Mr. Shinji, Miss Artoria, Miss Reika, and Little Jack... I don't know until now Magic is a person who really doesn’t understand anything.”

The girl put her hands together in a prayer position as she spoke.

"If the Holy Maiden hadn't come, I'm afraid I would have lived without knowing anything. However, I still knew these things in this way, and I also met people who would only be in myths and legends. Heroes who are sung."

"I'm not a hero, did I disappoint you?"

"No, not at all." Leticia shook her head again and again, "Mr. Shinji is powerful, handsome, and smart, no worse than those heroes at all."

"Hehe, thank you for giving me such a high evaluation. But I know that I am still far from them, really far away."

Shen Er narrowed his eyes, his expression a little lonely.Seeing his expression, Leticia looked very anxious.

"No, no, Mr. Shinji is really a very, very powerful person, because I have been watching, always, always—"

It was a really dreamy time for Leticia.

Before that, her lifestyle was very simple, and she was cramped and breathless every day.

Pray in the morning, pray at noon, pray at night, pray before meals, and pray before going to bed.

Friends in the dormitory will often take a proper breath.She didn't intend to blame them, on the contrary, she also felt that it would be better to relax properly.She clearly thought so, but for some reason she didn't intend to do that at all—maybe, it was because she was afraid of things that would move her heart.

Like every day spent in the deep sea.There is no great joy or sorrow, just living life in a flat way.

The college where she lives has no particularly distinctive features.Friends complained that it was like a prison.On the other hand, because the connection with the outside world is not completely severed, some people easily embark on the road of self-depravity, and some people regret it because of it.

In such an environment, everyone said that it was a blessing that she could still restrain herself so strictly.

Not depraved in communication with the outside world, nor does it translate into excess self-esteem.

Whether it's teachers or friends, for some reason, they always praise her.

Everyone says that this way of living is beautiful, and this way of living is correct.

She could only accept these compliments with an ambiguous smile, but at the same time she was troubled in her heart—it wasn't the case at all.

She was simply afraid of change.

She knows her character well.There is no self-control at all, the brake device has been broken long ago, once running, it will only continue to accelerate, and there is no way to slow down the speed.

Even if there is a cliff in front of her, she will jump straight up.She couldn't stop until she fell into the abyss and died.

So she didn't get involved with the outside world, but she wouldn't feel great joy in prison.After all, her parents are outside, and it is impossible to completely cut off contact.

It's really not going to land on both sides - she really wanted to laugh at herself like this.

She doesn't want to be associated with others to get a worldly atmosphere and make herself an extremely ordinary person.But at the same time, he does not have the guts to dedicate himself to a world isolated from the outside world and ruled only by taboos.

In general, she just doesn't know what she should aim for, and I can't find the path I should take.It's just that he walked along the vaguely visible road in a daze, stepping on the empty steps and walking forward with fear.

Forget it, it doesn't matter what happens at this point—she walked straight forward with a semi-desperate mood.

No matter what awaits her on the road ahead.Anyway, I don't know anything, and there is nothing I can do about it.Even if you fall into the mundane world, even if you want to become a criminal, even if you want to regret it...all give up on the grounds of "no way".

Just at such a time—she had a dream and saw a way.

Joan of Arc asked her for help.With the knowledge inserted into her mind, she instantly understood and accepted everything.

Of course, she also had fears.With the Holy Grail as the center, the heroes fight fiercely against each other, which is definitely not something that mortals like myself should participate in.

However, in the end, she agreed, and solemnly declined the persuasion of "as long as you stay asleep", and witnessed everything that happened through the vision of the saint.

Whether it was a magnificent battle scene beyond imagination, or a miserable scene full of disgusting disgust, she saw it all.

Perhaps it was "being in the safe circle" that became a mental barrier, and she saw things that no one else could see, even if it took her whole life.

Heroes galloping across the battlefield, warriors who smashed huge stone statues with mysterious weapons.In addition, there are magicians who use weird spells, and even saw a large fortress full of monsters that cannot be killed and floating in the air.

In these scenes where legends became reality, she felt how small, how stupid and ignorant she was.

It really is the difference between heaven and earth.Just treat all of this as a dream, and return to your own world after everything is over, return to the normal world, and bury all the secrets in your heart. It would be nice to have a chance to recall, after all, that It is not a world that can be touched by oneself.

She thought so more than once, but whenever she wanted to make up her mind, that person would appear and tell her that the distance between the two worlds was not so far away, and there was still room for her to exist here.

Although that person also has power beyond common sense, he doesn't exude an atmosphere that is incompatible with the modern world like other heroes.

He can flag cars with the common hand gestures for hitchhiking. He has also received a complete modern education, and the way he speaks and handles things is not much different from ordinary people.Will get carried away, will deliberately show off, and will be mad and awkward.

To be honest, compared with Lady Saint, he has many shortcomings.But it was these shortcomings that made Leticia feel real, and her eyes were unconsciously attracted to him, and she couldn't help but want to cheer him up.

After all, civilian heroes and grassroots elites are always favored by ordinary people.

When she saw that he was seriously injured, she was very anxious.

When she saw him cheer up, she was so happy again.

When she heard that he was drawing a picture, she felt that she could do something for him. For the first time, she urged the Holy Maiden to come over, and for the first time, she took the initiative to intervene in this world that should not belong to her.

Although I am a little sorry for the dedicated Saintess, she really hopes that he can win the final victory.

"So, Mr. Shinji, you must be fine. Have confidence in yourself. I, I will do my best to help you."

Seeing Leticia like this, trying so hard to cheer herself up, Shinji also had a smile on his face.

"How are you going to help me?"

"Well, Miss Lingxia said that you are drawing the structure diagram of the sky garden."

Leticia, who lacked confidence, took a deep breath and mustered up all her courage.

"I have a lot of experience in drawing...well, I have some experience. When the Holy Maiden stepped into the garden, I kept looking at it. I think I can help!"

"That's right, can I ask you to draw the general appearance and the route that Joan of Arc has traveled?"

"I will work hard."

"Okay, this is the momentum, first help me to see if there is any problem with my painting..."

"Ok!"

So the two of them moved the paper and pens from the desk to the tea table, one occupied one side, and started to light up the night battle.

Outside the concealed door, Fiore watched the scene quietly, her expression changed several times, and finally turned into a faint sigh, and left quietly.

◇◇◇

Shen Er is not the only one who suffers continuous liver burst and sleeplessness, but also the enemies he has to defeat.

Because of the two consecutive illusion collapses, the palace where the Great Holy Grail was originally stored can no longer be used.Semiramis, who is the master of the garden, temporarily opened a new altar.

Although it was opened temporarily, the altar still maintains the usual grandeur and luxury of the garden.

The altar and the surrounding space are separated by magic distortion, creating a sense of endless expanse.

Although it looks like a basin as a whole, only the central part is a flat place.Going down the wide steps made of burnt bricks to the central part, you can see the stolen Fuyuki Great Grail floating there.

The figure emitting blue and white light looks like the moon that was summoned to this space.

But even more amazing is the ceiling of the altar.

The material of the ceiling is transparent crystal, and the top of the crystal is filled with "water".

It was literally an upside-down lake.Water lilies bloom in brilliant blues, reds, yellows and more - like a rainbow-colored sky - across the lake.

This is a spectacle that can only be realized in the "sky garden of vanity" with a "reverse concept", where water flows from high places and people go to low places.

Regrettably, this fantasy and magnificence was completely destroyed by the owner of the altar, a white-haired boy in a monastic uniform.

The space outside the altar is infested with large expanses of black, as if it were the ashes left after being burned by the fire, and it also looks like a dark and strange work of the abstraction school.

Accompanied by the movements of the young man on the altar, the blackened ground swelled irregularly, like bubbles, or something gathered and rolled in the blackness.

Soon, these black bulges gathered together, continued to grow and rise, and finally presented black human shapes.

Except for the overall color, these figures are almost the same as real people, and both the details of the clothes and the features of the face are well restored.The only difference is that the human form is still a human form after all, with a dead silence on the face, and no life can be seen.

The last figure was completed, the young man took away the red and blue magic power on his arm, reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Very well, that's it."

"Using the souls of the servants contained in the Lesser Holy Grail as the base, use my treasure to connect and awaken their spiritual foundations, and finally use the illusory attributes of the garden to create the 'Shadow Servants'."

"Although the principle is different from the original version, there is no difference in performance. Of course, the shortcomings of limited IQ and treasures are unavoidable."

"However, even if the Noble Phantasm is restricted, the strength of these Shadow Servants is still strong. After all, this is the largest Holy Grail War in the Middle East, and the five Servants who participated in the war all started with first-class ceilings."

"Then it's up to you - Shadow Archer Arash, Shadow Lancer Romulus, Shadow Caster Hohenheim, Shadow Assassin Prodigal Yanqing, and Shadow Berserker Beowulf."

"Don't think that if I give away all the cards, there will be no cards to play. After all, those who use the existing deck are only second-rate, and those who can print their own cards are the king. I am the legendary king of cards! ——The so-called gap between It didn’t exist in the first place, hahahahaha!!!”

PS: Sure enough, Shinji is going to defeat Shirou.
