[fate][Archer] purple soul

I also noticed that there is a stigmata on the back of your left hand, this is a good thing, and you are qualified to participate in the Holy Grail War——”

Finally, I laughed out loud. Although I was very old, I was full of spirit and looked at me with piercing eyes.

"The wish of the Matou family is up to you—but I still want to hear your own choice. Are you willing to participate in the Holy Grail War for me, an old man?"

A lot of information, it confuses me.

Thinking of that crime, the crime of Emiya Kiritsugu, I think I should—

[A. Give up participating in the Holy Grail War] [B. Participate in the Holy Grail War] [C. Hesitate]

[Choose A route]

Fortunately, he gave me a path to choose, otherwise I would be forced to participate in this farce, I think it would be impossible anyway.

That's right, my soul has been burned out for the past ten years.

So what about the wishes of the Matou family?

In fact, I didn't even think about going to war at all.

I can't gamble with the future of my life in just a few days.

Therefore, "I—— give up participating in the Holy Grail War."

I am not the only candidate for the Matou family to join the battle.

And Shinji, Sakura.

I put pressure on them, but I don't regret it.

The only thing I regret is that I chose to be adopted by Matou ten years ago.

Ahhh, I really miss my copper-colored hair.

Lowering his eyelids, he sighed deeply.

"You really gave up on participating. Forget it, you won't be needed anymore."

Matou Zouken's expression was one of hatred for iron.

He can't kill me either, I know that.

As Shirou of the Matou family, I know how he has carefully cultivated me for the past ten years.

I don't just have nasty bugs in my body, there are others.

Probably, the wreckage of the Holy Grail.

More than once, I heard him quietly say that his long-cherished wish was fulfilled in this Holy Grail War.

Matou Shirou is a pawn in this Holy Grail War.

That's why I'm refusing to join the war this time.

Unless it controls me, or according to my will, I will not intervene.

The withered old man smiled again with a strange expression, and couldn't help but think of the expression when he was adopted that time.

Shockingly scary.

It's just that now I don't have any emotional fluctuations.

The soul is long gone.

He stroked my purple hair, gently and carefully, as if holding a Holy Grail in his eyes.

I gradually relaxed my vigilance, yes, he is just an old man, why should I be so nervous.

However, at that moment, his heart convulsed suddenly and he lost consciousness.

Maybe Matou Zouken didn't want to just give up like this.

He actually used the soulless body of Matou Shirou to participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War.

Heroic spirits were summoned.

When meeting Heroic Spirit Emiya, the man with white hair and red holy cloth looked at Shiro Matou's empty shell with a complicated expression.

Knowing what happened, he shouted in a tone like an enemy, "Matou—Zouken!!!"

He killed the empty shell of Matou Shiro, who was actually Matou Zouken.

However, the real Matou Shirou who lost consciousness.

And never wake up again.

After all, as a failure, it is even worse than a fake.

A counterfeit can at least be confused with the real thing.

But failed products can only be discarded.

-Badend-

[failure product]

[Tiger Dojo] Hehehe. . . . . ?

third choice

?[Choose B route]

Although he offered me a path to choose, it didn't make much sense to me.

I'm going to take part, I know for sure.

Can't put more pressure on Shinji and Sakura.

I want to save mankind. I have never told anyone about this little wish.

I'm basically cruel.

If Matou Zouken finds out, he doesn't know how to punish me.

Being thrown into the worm room is only the lightest punishment.

Maybe even Sakura.

This is something I absolutely do not want to see.

From childhood to adulthood, Sakura was the only one who supported me hard.

She always treats me with a gentle smile.

I suppose that's how the remains of my soul are immortal.

I saw it ten years ago, her eyes were dead.

is lifeless.

I can't even remember how angry I was.

Sighing, he solemnly replied, "I will participate in this Holy Grail War, and I will definitely win the Holy Grail!"

There are many ideas for going to war.

Protect the fragile Sakura.

And, to find the truth about the crime of the year.

It was impossible for Emiya Kiritsugu to be so ruthless.

Lying in the ruins, the happy smile he had when he found me is still engraved in my heart.

Thinking about it, I feel a warmth that penetrates the heart and flows into the body.

Jiantong Zouyan felt very relieved, fortunately, he didn't raise this grandson for nothing.

"After school tomorrow—come to my place again and perform the ceremony of summoning the heroic spirit."

Nodding his head to show he remembered, he turned and left.

Walking into the aisle, I met Matou Shinji, who put his waist on his waist and said to me with a disdainful expression.

"You bastard, what did grandpa tell you to do?"

He seemed curious, but arrogant.

He usually has this kind of personality, and he will never change his nature.

When he really died, I don't think anyone will cry for him.

Frowning and shaking his head, he said he didn't do anything.

She walked past him without looking back.

the next day.

In the morning, I was called by student council president Kassung Ryu-dong to fix the heater.

Although I am quite good at this aspect, I think it is better not to accept it unconditionally next time.

As soon as he finished, he heard Yicheng talking to a girl outside.

Ah, this voice is quite familiar, it must be Rin Tohsaka.

Carrying this heavy thing to the door, pretending to speak to Yicheng.

"It's fixed, don't let me do this kind of thing again next time."

Sure enough, the eyes of both of them were on me, and Tohsaka Rin looked inquiring.

"Sorry, sorry, there is actually a heater that needs your help—"

Then he was embarrassed to continue, he scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

Sighing, he put the heater on the ground.

"I said, if it's broken, just buy another one. It's not worth much. Where is the broken heater? Hurry up and fix it before class."

"In the music classroom—"

Liu Dong Yicheng took the lead and walked in one direction.

I walked a few steps before I remembered the existence of Tohsaka Rin.

He turned his head and greeted her who was a little far away, "That--good morning, Tohsaka-san."

It's time to leave school, and because of some delays, the sky has already darkened.

Clean up at the Kyudo club.

When I was done, I heard a metal collision outside the door, a very crisp sound, as if someone was fighting.

What if someone gets hurt.

I know it's dangerous for me to go out now, but, I have a small wish.

The desire not to be noticed.

save.

Right now, right now, someone is fighting.

What should I do - to be worthy of my heart.

[A. go out] [B. not go out]

[Choose A route]

The sound of metal continued.

Judging from the time when they collided, they should all be very powerful people.

It may be life-threatening to go out now, but shrinking here can only make you look cowardly.

Thinking this way, he ran out of the bow club.

Standing cautiously in a corner, startled.

Red figures and blue figures kept flashing, and the collision of knives and guns flashed bright sparks.

Just watching their battle, you will feel the blood boil.

But there is also a deep sense of dread.

This is definitely not a human battle.

So, of course, the Holy Grail War came to mind.

This is a battle between two heroic spirits.

The sound of heart beating rang in my ears.

I always feel so tired.

An inexplicable sense of suffocation came from his chest, wanting to let himself escape.

The battle between red and blue stopped, and blue held a gun, bursting out a huge flame-like magical power.

It was so overwhelming that I couldn't breathe, and the bugs in my body kept wriggling.

it hurts.

it hurts.

One foot was unsteady and there was a sound.

"Who is there!?"

The man in blue like a beast looked over.

Oops, you have to escape, or you will die.

Without hesitation, he turned and fled.

Running into the teaching building, a gun flower flashed by, and dodged by instinct.

I fell to the second floor, panting and looked around, but no one was there.

Walk slowly and finally stop.

"Probably—huh, here, there is no problem."

I comforted myself, but my heart ached——

"Yeah, it's over. What are you running for? After the game is over, just die like this. It's because you saw something you shouldn't see."

The blue person is holding a red patterned gun, stabbing at the heart.

After pulling it out, my body shook and I fell to the ground.

Blood flowed all over the ground, my vision was blurred, ah, maybe I'm going to die.

I'm really not reconciled, my wish has not been fulfilled yet——

……

The last thing you see, is the ruby ​​necklace, which is full of magic.

And the instant murderous feeling felt.

When he woke up completely, he didn't know how he got to Matou's house.

In short, Sakura was so scared that she cried when she saw it.

Healing with healing magic does not dare to stop for a moment.

With Sakura who cares so much, I don't think anything will happen.

Matou Zouken took the initiative to find me.

He said with a strange expression.

"What's going on outside—where are the Heroic Spirits of the other Masters?
