I Will Be the Son of Man

Hearing the sound of the door opening and the sound of footsteps, Sakura quietly closed the note and put it under the book.

"Sakura, I'm back."

"Well, welcome back, Ayaka."

As the footsteps approached, a beautiful girl with shoulder-length brown hair, a pair of glasses, and a high school uniform came to the living room with a bag full of ingredients in her hand.

After skillfully putting the ingredients into the refrigerator, Ayaka turned around and asked.

"Did you not wake up today?"

"Um......."

Sakura nodded lightly, she knew who the other party was asking.

It was called the [Holy Son] by the [Holy Church], and it was lying in the room of someone who had disappeared, sleeping for nearly ten years......

"But, I think, brother, he should wake up soon..."

Keeping her left hand under the table, Sakura had a faint smile on her face.

And on the back of the left hand, three bright red Command Seals appeared there.

Chapter 001: Familiar and Unfamiliar Words (40,41/n) (Modified)

Cold, numb, painful....

It was as if the soul had been forcibly pulled out of the body, the pain was spreading all over the body, even the eyeballs seemed to be burning, and the five senses were cut off from the fingers.

It became difficult to breathe, and the hunger swept through the pain, making Hill completely unable to make any sound, and could only lie on the cold bright blue ground.

This is a dark and bright space.

The surroundings were completely invisible darkness, only the crystal floor where he was lying on at this moment seemed to have seven colors of luster flowing, emitting light.

It's as if, in this space, there is only this layer of ground, suspended in the darkness.

From the corner of his blurred vision, Hill saw countless corpses lying around the seemingly circular floor.

However, there was no rancid smell, and no smell of blood. It was just a gray-faced corpse wearing some kind of uniform that had lost all functions, lying quietly on the outside.

He wanted to move his body, but the painful feeling seemed to be unable to adapt to this body, and it was still holding him back.

The field of vision in front of him gradually became dark, and Hill's breathing became a little short, but thanks to his previous attempts to move, he seemed to have adapted to the pain, and his consciousness began to think.

here is.......

Looking up at the endless darkness above, Hill didn't quite understand why he appeared here.

Because, before that, he was clearly still...

Severe pain came from his mind, and the image of the witch fox with a strange smell appeared in Hill's mind.

And, the emerald monk, the verdant bodhi leaf in the palm of his hand...

where is this

You have to go back....

Seems to have forgotten a certain request, Hill only knew that he should return to Fuyuki City.

The pain receded a bit, or I got used to it.

Although I don't know the current situation, Hill knows that he should leave here first, but what should he do...

Trying to prop up one of his arms, when Hill was lying on the ground before, he saw the closed and standing glazed door behind him.

Although I don't know if that is the exit, but now, the only place I can go in seems to be there.

From the time he was able to think consciously until now, Hill always felt that his body seemed to be blocked in addition to numbness and pain.

Especially when he originally planned to call out the silver armor so that he could use the power of the armor to recover a bit.But he found that the blockage was like a barrier between the spirit and the flesh, making his summoning fail.

Therefore, Hill could only rely on his own body to move towards the gate little by little.

However, the hunger that seemed to originate from the depths of his soul was constantly eating away at his consciousness.

Finally, the barely moving body seemed to have reached its limit, and Hill fell to the ground.

Stretching out his hand forward, Hill was still moving forward bit by bit.

But the moving distance is enough to be ignored.

so hungry.......

The hunger in his stomach almost swallowed his consciousness. Hill had never felt such a hunger, which made his thoughts sink continuously, and he wanted to fall asleep at any time.

Can't stop yet......

However, the glazed gate standing there seems to be thousands of miles away, making it difficult for people to approach.

Still... can't...

"Wait, wait, wait for me, that soul!"

A voice full of vitality suddenly sounded, making Hill's consciousness of being about to fall into darkness, and he regained a little bit of sobriety.

Subconsciously, he felt that this voice seemed to have been heard somewhere.

"Although I don't know where it is or who it is, but that perseverance, that hard work. Even if other gods are deaf, my ears can hear it all at once!"

"Yujia's Soul-Restraining God's Guide! It's too early for this person to fall into the Underworld!"

"Because such a handsome soul must be a very good person! Then, just give it to me~!"

With the sound of shattering glass, the surrounding darkness was shattered, and the space was lit up.

The sea-blue light fills the field of vision, making people feel whether they are in the bottom of the sea for a moment.

And in this space, something suddenly appeared.

A faint beam of light descended from the sky, and a figure descended here.

She has long pink hair and wears a slightly chic dark blue miko uniform.Although its appearance looks no different from that of a human being, ordinary human beings don't have those slightly fluttering ears, nor that slightly wagging tail.

The feet stepped on the high-top clogs, leaving a trampling sound on the ground.Moving her slender legs in dark blue stockings, the girl came up to the boy.

"If there is nothing important, I would like to visit immediately! I came from Xuanyuan Mausoleum, and the delivery of the good wife Hu has arrived!"

Putting on an appearance that he thought was handsome, the pink-haired witch fox had a bright smile on her face.

However, the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.

Hill blinked his heavy eyelids, looked at the girl's appearance, and doubts flashed in his remaining thinking consciousness.

Caster...?

"Ah, there shouldn't be a cold break, right? Well, you are my Master... isn't that right?"

Seeing the boy lying on the ground without saying a word, Miko Fox somehow felt a little ashamed for his appearance just now.

"no........"

It was Aika who signed the contract with Caster, so after finally gaining some strength, Ciel revealed the answer.

"Eh?"

Witch Fox's expression froze for a moment, but immediately a slightly wronged look appeared on her face.

"Wait a minute, such a statement is too much! By the way, please take a look at the atmosphere!"

"Also, if you don't sign a contract with me here, it will be Dead End! Does it matter if your life ends like this?"

Finish?It's not over....

The imposing words of the Witch Fox made Hill's consciousness clearer again, and at the same time, his body seemed to gain more strength, allowing him to relax enough to prop up his body, swaying stood up.

"I see."

"Contract, sign it..."

Choosing to believe the girl in front of him, Hill turned what little strength he had left into connecting words.

Afterwards, he felt the back of his right hand scorching hot, and three bright red marks like tattoos appeared on it.

"Yes! However, it's better not to force yourself, Master."

As if exhausting his last strength, Hill's body fell straight forward.

But the witch fox took the first step, caught his body, and said softly.

"However, with such a hard-working soul, Xiaoyu is my favorite, Mikon!"

Is it really.......Caster?

The strange way of speaking and the smell on his body are exactly the same as the Caster he knows.Although it is not clear what happened, the other party's energetic and slightly noisy gesture calmed down Hill's mood for some reason.

【Um?Are there any candidates? 】

In the sky, a dull voice suddenly sounded.That voice made it hard to imagine that its owner might be a middle-aged man over 30 years old wearing a depressed priest's uniform.

[Then, you must have a lot of confusion, lucky person. 】

[First of all, congratulations on reaching the end here.However, this is also the starting point where it all begins. 】

[The tattoo-like existence engraved on the back of your hand is the [Command Spell], and it is the proof of being the master of the servant. 】

[According to its usage, it can make the servant's strength stronger, or restrain it, which is the absolute three-order right.Think of it as some sort of reinforcement device. 】

[However, this is also a certificate to participate in the Holy Grail War.If all Command Seals are lost, the Master will die, so please be careful about this. 】

[Also, the existence beside you is a Servant, an existence that transcends human beings.It is your help in this Holy Grail War. 】

Holy Grail War?There's also... the Holy Grail?

Doubts flashed through Hill's mind, but he couldn't ask, because just maintaining this final sobriety had exhausted his energy.

[Then, let’s start the baptism here, you, the lucky one of the heavenly family, have this qualification. 】
