Infinite Begins with Giants

Chapter 509 The Past
If they were evil people, he could draw his sword and hack them to death, but when facing those kind people, he would always be a little at a loss and didn't know how to get along with them.

He doesn't like to recall the past, not just when he was young and in secondary school.

Speaking of being naive and childish, it’s actually okay, because everyone is born this way, and people don’t grow up to completely deny who they used to be.

But Ryan doesn't like "Karen Reinhardt" nor does he like "Rayn Ackerman" in the world of giants.

It's not that he hates the past, but that he hates the past self for being too weak and ignorant.

At that time, no matter how hard he tried, even if he risked his life, he couldn't protect what he wanted to protect.

At dawn, the first ray of sunlight came from the far east.

In front of the quaint mountain gate of Liudong Temple, the mottled golden morning sun scattered on the bluestone steps, dispelling a little chill.

Saber stared at him with eyes as beautiful as blue waves, listened to his complaints, pondered for a moment and asked:
"So you've actually met me?"

"Saber, this is actually not important, because you don't know me, unilateral knowledge is meaningless."

Ren shook his head lightly, the memory of the initial part of "No Name" has been blurred, but he still has the impression of Saber.

Those memories exist in the most precious place in the boy's heart, as evidenced by the eternal and distant golden sword.

But the King of Knights is not the one in front of him, and he is not really Wuming, so it is meaningless for the two to talk about their acquaintance.

Saber stared at him, didn't see anything unusual on his face, stopped continuing this topic, and asked instead:
"You said you've met someone very similar to me?"

"Yes, she is the illegitimate daughter of the royal family, a little blond girl with beautiful eyes like sapphires, who, like you, grew up on a farm.

But life on the farm wasn't friendly to her.

Abandoned by her mother and having no friends to play with, she works hard on the farm every day, trying to forget—that she is alone in the world...

On that day, she told me that she wanted to protect the smiles of the children, and she wanted to do her best to let everyone live a happy life.

So, she was so frightened that her body was trembling, she was obviously just a village girl, a recruit, and had never learned how to govern a country... In the end, she stood up like a fool and became the so-called queen. "

Ren narrated softly, and slowly closed his eyes.

He is always deliberately forgetting the past, sealing the memories of the past in his heart.

At that time, Christa stood up as queen, and he tried to stop it, but after all, he didn't have the strength and courage to help her.

"She is very brave and kind. If I were an ordinary... girl, I might not have the courage to protect people." Saber said in a soft voice.

She didn't know who Wuming was talking about, and where the story was, but she could understand the girl she had never met from his narration.

She instinctively felt that he was not talking nonsense.

It was also the first time these days, Saber sensed the emotional fluctuations in Wuming's heart, she asked softly:
"Wu Ming, do you feel guilty for not helping her?"

"Guilty?"

Ren recited it, and he slowly opened his eyes, staring at the blue sky in a daze.

At that time, Hystria chose to inherit the throne and take responsibility for the children in the underground street to come to the ground, for the stability of the law and order in the wall, and for everyone to live an ordinary and happy life...

And he just pretended to stop it.

Let alone a hero, he even hoped in his heart that she would take the initiative to stand up for the sake of the overall situation.

Since then, he has wavered.

He realized that he was not a hero, not even a hero, he was just an ordinary person with some strength.

If at that time, he could be stronger, smarter and more mature, maybe he wouldn't have to watch everyone struggle and watch many people die.

Clenching his fists subconsciously, Ren stood up slowly: "Saber, didn't you ask me why you gave up your dream of becoming a hero?"

Saber stared up at him, her white hair was very conspicuous.

His face was very calm, and there was no emotion at all, but she had the illusion that he was covered in bruises.

Just like her kneeling on the hill of Camlann.

Ren looked at her expressionlessly, without a wave in his voice:
"I found that I didn't have the knack for making everyone happy.

So I had to be selfish and live my own life, just like most ordinary people in this world. "

He said no more, and stepped into Liudong Temple.

Looking at his back, Arturia was in a daze. At this moment, she really wanted to call him back and tell him not to give up.

but-
'I don't have the knack for making everyone happy. '

These words echoed in Saber's heart, ripples appeared in her green eyes, and the feeling in her heart was even more difficult to understand.

She has been working hard to protect everyone's ordinary and warm every day, but in the end she still failed.

Does she have the ability to let everyone live a happy life?
Saber stood up slowly, her eyes were blank.

It failed, and people finally couldn't bear it anymore. The villagers, nobles, knights...all of them couldn't hold on anymore, only she thought it was all right.

She has lost faith in herself, and only the Holy Grail is left.

"The Holy Grail, is it tonight?" Saber murmured softly, suppressing the exhaustion in her heart, longing for a "miracle".

.........

Inside the Fuyuki City Church.

The old priest Kotomine Ri was staring blankly at Tosaka Tokiomi's icy corpse, the dark red blood was very dazzling.

But he felt a sudden blackness in front of his eyes, and he almost fainted to the ground, being supported by Kotomine Kirei behind him.

The old priest had a look of disbelief, and asked with trembling lips:

"Kirei, Tokiomi why did he die?"

"The magician killer sneaked into the Tohsaka mansion while the King of Heroes was away, and used despicable means to assassinate the teacher..."

Father Mapo looked serious, opened his eyes and spoke nonsense, and unceremoniously poured a basin of dirty water on Father Kiritsugu.

"Tokiomi, how can you be so careless..." The old priest grabbed Tokiomi's cold hand, and couldn't help crying.

Tokiomi: ...

Kotomine Ri was in great grief, he and Tokiomi's father were good friends, and Tokiomi himself was also a friend of the past.

Two generations, decades of friendship.

"Tokiomi, why did you die? This time, the Holy Grail is about to fall into the hands of those ambitious people..."

The old priest burst into tears, and his face was very sad.

Silently watching his father crying, Father Mapo's stiff face twitched slightly.

He gritted his teeth, trying to maintain a slightly sad expression, but in his heart...

Hahahaha, ahhahahahaha, hahahahahaha!

Nope, I'm dying of laughter.

Father Mapo suppressed his laughter, almost had stomach cramps, his father must never have imagined that he was the one who killed Tokiomi.
