foreigner's journey

Chapter 456
Kara...

A palm suddenly protruded from the edge of the deep pit bombarded by the light cannon, and Heather grabbed the scorched wall covered with gravel and climbed up.

His coat looked a little tattered, but there was no scar on the flesh inside.

In the state of [Concept] turned on, the light cannon with A+ power can only cause ordinary abrasions to him. This level of injury can only be blinked with the recovery power of animal phantom beasts brought by the mace [Narakugawa] It can be healed in a short time, and it doesn't even need to use up eggs.

Under the blessing of the concept, Heather's durability has reached the terrifying [EX] level at this time.

Even without the assists of LANCER and ARCHER, even if he has no way to break the defense against SABER, Heather is confident that he can consume SABER until his mana is exhausted.

But it doesn't stop there.

Because of the lack of mastery of [Concept], Heather could no longer maintain the blessing of [Concept] and returned to a normal state.

He brushed off the dust and small gravels from his body, and looked towards LANCER who was standing on the top of a tall building in the distance, checking Minard's body:

"It's not useful to SABER, but you are quite interesting. Ask your MASTER, do you want to form an alliance temporarily?"

At present, what Heather can confirm is that Lancer and Saber are not foreigners.If you are really a foreigner, you can find out the details of the opponent as long as you fight face to face.

Lancer just looked at Heather with sharp eyes, then raised the golden spear in his hand without saying a word and burned Minar's body directly, and then his whole body merged into the shadows and disappeared completely.

Astral?I didn't fight directly, which shows that the opponent is afraid of my strength.And the master's strength is not outstanding, at least it is very difficult to supply magic power, otherwise the power of Karna's Noble Phantasm can instantly raze the entire city of Mersis to the ground, so why bother with me?Oh, by the way, I'm afraid the opponent's master is also hiding somewhere in Melissis City, and he dare not let Lancer Karna cast an overly powerful Noble Phantasm.

While thinking, Heather turned her head and looked into the distance, where the arrow was coming from.

Curl up your thumb and index finger in a circle and place it in front of your eyes, Xinyuanliu's [Yuanxin Eye] acts as a telescope but still find nothing.

A beyond-the-horizon attack achieved by human power.

Bronze arrows, extremely precise shooting skills, terrifying power that can break through even my body in a conceptual state... This time the ARCHER class is really hanging on the wall, it might as well be expected.

Heather didn't think about it anymore, she jumped several thousand meters, found Lena and Roxana who were on guard in a relatively hidden corner, and took them away from the scene.

After a while, the fire siren and the ambulance siren entangled together and gradually approached.

..........................................

Back at their residence in the Linhai neighborhood, the landlord and his wife were sitting worriedly watching the live news on TV.

When they heard the door knocking, they found that it was Lena and Roxana who had returned. They ran over and hugged the two in shock, and the old woman even cried aloud.

Heather looked at the TV, and there was a stern-faced blond reporter broadcasting live news on the screen.

【...The situation on Fourth Avenue is very tragic. It can be seen that the entire street has been completely blown up, and none of the surrounding buildings are intact. 】

The picture turns to the side, the fire engine is spraying towards the blazing building wreckage, the ambulance personnel are carrying stretchers to continuously transport the wounded to a safe zone, and there are rows of corpses simply covered with black cloth on the ground.

[There are currently 141 casualties, and this number is still increasing, and the number of missing people is still being counted. 】

In the picture, children covered with blood and mud are crying loudly, and tourists and marchers wearing Japanese-style carnival masks are sitting or standing, their faces full of confusion and sadness.

[According to experts' speculation, the underground gas pipeline should have been detonated for special reasons, which further triggered a chain explosion reaction.Accordingly, the mayor of this city declares...]

Reiner couldn't listen anymore, covered his mouth with a pale face and rushed to the bathroom, and then there were bursts of vomiting.

Roxana ignorantly tugged at the corner of Heather's clothes, looked up at her favorite RIDER, as if asking what happened to Reiner.

Heather shook her head, gently stroking Roxana's head.

After a while, Reiner staggered out of the bathroom wiping the corners of his mouth.He declined the old couple's concern and inquiry, and took hurried steps towards his own room.

He once thought that he was ready to participate in the Holy Grail War, so he even simulated the scene of killing the enemy Master many times in his mind.

But today, the fight between three godlike and powerful servants completely awakened him from his fantasy.

It's not a simulated war on paper, it's not a wild guess in your mind, it's a real, ruthless killing like a war weapon.

In the eyes of the three followers, the lives of civilians are not the top priority to be protected, and no one cares about the figures on the background boards. They are just ruthlessly chasing the final victory called the 'Holy Grail'.

Even [heroes] like Heather and Karna eventually revealed their cruel side.

Why? [Heroes] Shouldn't they all be the most noble and selfless beings?Respond tirelessly to the pleas of mortals and achieve miracles that are impossible in the eyes of mortals. This is a [hero]!

"So, you're running into self-doubt?"

Reiner woke up instantly and found Heather and Roxana quietly appearing in his room.Heather sat on the chair and raised her legs, looking at Reiner with a playful look.

Feeling agitated, Reiner forgot his awe of Heather for a while, and shouted:
"Why! You are obviously heroes, why can you ignore the lives of those fragile mortals so easily during the battle? Is the Holy Grail really so important?"

"...I thought you wouldn't act so stupid."

Heather smiled slightly, with sarcasm in her tone:

"Did you forget something? It was you who stole the holy relic prepared by your teacher; it was you who rushed to Melesis City with two idiots to participate in the Holy Grail War. Now you are actually asking I questioned? My loyal servant, you seem to have forgotten your identity."

Reiner's hunchback became more and more serious, and the whole person curled up and shivered.

Heather has always been a good teacher. Seeing that Reiner was almost mentally broken by the blow, she slowly said:
"Some people expect to be noble, but it is very difficult to be noble all the time. There is a man who can give like a saint on the one hand and show ruthless cruelty on the other. The hero is the same, for friends And the weeping hero may even murder the wife of his enemy. The so-called tyrant occasionally shows rare tenderness to a child."

Heather rubbed Roxana's hair lightly, like stroking a cat:
"Does [hero] have to be bound by 'others' wishes' and 'others' opinions'? At least I am not such a boring existence. I can respond to your expectations and let you survive to the end in this Holy Grail War, but you You have to put away your cheap sympathy and learn to trust and obey me like Roxana did. Do you understand, Reiner?"

"Yes... I see, my lord."

At this time, Reiner had gradually recovered from the hysteria, and anxiety and fear regained the upper hand. He timidly echoed Heather, and finally asked tentatively:

"My lord, do you want me to send a familiar to investigate ARCHER's whereabouts?"

"You? Your trash familiar can't even beat a dog, and is extremely stupid. Instead, I have to worry about exposing our whereabouts in reverse, forget it. Besides..."

Heather shook her fingers and leaned back lazily on the back of the chair:
"I have almost guessed the identity of ARHCER."

Just as Reiner was about to ask a question, there was a knock on the door, and then the landlord's voice sounded:

"Lena, are you feeling better?"

"Much better, thanks to Mr. Gryffindor's enlightenment." Reiner quickly replied.

"That's good. Do you want to come out to watch the parade of the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts? It seems that the people spontaneously organized a street parade to pray for the victims, and the TV station was broadcasting it live."

Ok?
Heather turned her head to look in the direction of the door.

Something is wrong.
