[FATEFGO] Master's Note

In fact, many times, even Shenmu Xiao, the master, would forget that Gilgamesh was actually an Archer, after all, he had never used a bow and arrow in front of Shenmu Xiao.

It is true that among the famous weapons stored in Gilgamesh’s King’s Treasure, ancient famous swords and weapons that only exist in legends and have never been handed down to the world account for more than half. Abandoned in a dark corner, unable to see the sun after all.

But Gilgamesh doesn't really like melee combat very much.Rather than killing the enemy at close range, he prefers to stand where he is and watch the opponent struggle helplessly when they are attacked with nowhere to escape.

Besides, he was fond of hunting during his lifetime, and he was good at riding and shooting.After becoming a Heroic Spirit, although he is not considered a top Archer (this he himself would never admit), his ability should not be underestimated.

However, perhaps because he has always relied on the overwhelming power of the King's Treasure for a long time, he was a bit unfamiliar with the bow and arrow again.For the first few arrows, none of them landed perfectly in the rain of arrows, they just brushed past the arrows and missed its path.

He was speechless with dissatisfaction, obviously dissatisfied with the result.Fortunately, no one saw his mistake.

He raised his hand again, put the arrow on the string, and the gorgeous bow made of pure gold and inlaid with precious jade was stretched like a full moon by him.

The cold bowstring was attached to his cheek, and he could clearly feel the power he exerted on the entire bow.

Focus your eyes.

The usual haughty expression completely disappeared, and Gilgamesh showed a rarely seen calm expression on his face.

He took a quick glance at the opponent's movements, and the moment they let go, his arrow was also released from the string, hitting the tip with terrifying speed, shattering the sharp arrow.

This record has a bit of the old style.he thinks.

But the continuous fierce offensive on the other side made him unable to immerse himself in the old memories.He grabbed an arrow from the quiver, aimed at the opposite side, and shot several times in a row, preventing the enemy's arrow from hitting Shenmu Xiao in a rough and brutal way.

Knowing that Gilgamesh was behind her to protect her, she moved forward more decisively.She rushed forward without the slightest hesitation, as if the rain of arrows had become an insignificant foreign object and would not hurt her at all.

The southern army in the city didn't go out to look for her, they just stopped her on the high city.Perhaps they felt that Roja's body only attracted one person, and in order to attract the entire furious northern army, they spent too much force on Akatsuki Shenmu.

But they also don't want Shenmu Xiao to take away Roja's body easily - this is the best bait.

The patrolling soldiers retreated into the city to avoid being accidentally injured by the archers.On the plain in front of the fortress, apart from the arrows piercing deeply into the ground, there was only Shenmu Xiao running alone.

Getting closer and closer to Roja, Shenmu Xiao didn't dare to look up, so she could only see a pool of dried blood directly under the corpse.

She could already smell blood.

Then, she discovered a big problem.Roja was hung high above the city gate, and if he didn't climb up to the fortress and cut the hemp rope around his neck, he couldn't be put down.And there are many archers entrenched above the city gate, the success rate is obviously too low for her alone to break through.

Gilgamesh may be able to break the hemp rope with an arrow, but at the moment his energy is all focused on how to prevent Shenmu Xiao from being injured, and it seems that he cannot be distracted.

If you use a rifle/gun, it's not impossible.But Akatsuki Shenmu's eyesight has never been good, and she has never had a chance to use this bulky rifle/gun on her back.If she accidentally misses the shot, it's okay not to hit Roja's body, but if she hits it, she will have to blame herself to death.

But there wasn't much time for her to hesitate.

To do things, it is natural to choose the option with a high success rate.Shen Muxiao slowed down, waved to Gilgamesh, pointed to Roja's neck, and signaled for him to shoot down Roja's body.

Her speed only slowed down for a moment, and the opponent seized the opportunity.

The distance between her and the fort had already created unique conditions for the Southern Army, but now she took the initiative to slow down, it was almost like committing suicide.

Several archers directly above Shenmu Xiao fully drew their bows and aimed at her.The rest of the archers made a tacit feint to divert Gilgamesh's attention elsewhere.

By the time Gilgamesh realized this, the arrow had left the string.

"Ah Xiao—!"

Shen Muxiao swung his knife and managed to cut off most of the arrows.She knew that it would be difficult for her to stop the next attack.

But after this round of arrow rain, the archers on the city wall remained silent.Shen Muxiao heard that they were coughing vigorously, as if they wanted to cough up all their internal organs.

"Ah—help..."

They wailed.

The archers of the Southern Army didn't know what was going on, but they all had bleeding from their mouths and noses, and their faces were pale.Perhaps it was too painful, they kept scratching themselves with their nails, scratching their cheeks with bloodstains.Just looking at their struggle, you can see their pain.

Shen Muxiao was startled.She didn't know what was going on, but now was her best chance.She quickened her pace.

The hemp rope that was twisting Roja suddenly broke, and the body fell down.Shenmu Xiao stepped up and ran two steps, barely catching Roja.

The hemp rope wasn't broken by Gilgamesh's arrow, and the flat cut also showed that the hemp rope didn't break suddenly because it couldn't support Roja's weight.

Such a cut would require something sharp like a knife to make it out.

Shen Muxiao couldn't help becoming alert.

She had clearly not seen any other people or servants present.

"Mr. II..." She whispered to El-Melloi II, "Have any followers responded?"

"Not detected."

Shen Muxiao frowned, and said uncertainly, "That's...assassin?"

"Perhaps. Please be careful."

Shen Muxiao nodded, and very carefully picked up Roja's body - this broken body.

Maybe it's because there is no soul to pull the body, or because of other inexplicable reasons, Roja is extremely light, not the weight that a grown man should have at all.

His body was already completely cold, even slightly chilly.

Shen Muxiao walked very slowly.

Obviously Roja is already so light, obviously she still has physical strength at the moment, obviously...

Obviously she was the one who decided to bring Roja back without permission, but now she seems to have lost her courage.

The early morning sun made her eyes sour, and she kept taking deep breaths to keep her tears from falling.

Gilgamesh withdrew his bow and arrow and stood where he was, watching her step by step.

The movement in the morning woke up the northern army, but because Gilgamesh prevented them from getting involved in this matter and forced them to retreat, they saw the corpse held by Shenmu Xiao at this moment, and they realized what happened what.

Someone wanted to rush over to take Roja from Shenmu Xiao, but Gilgamesh raised his hand and stopped him.

"Let her go. If she intervenes, she will have a knot in her heart."

Gilgamesh said.

Under the attention of everyone, Shenmu Xiao finally returned to the station.She was exhausted at the moment, and she had almost no extra strength to walk half a step, but she still placed Roja's body gently on the grass to prevent him from being hurt again.

"Jill... I'm back..."

Her voice was as soft as a dream.

"it is good."

Gilgamesh responded and walked towards her.He didn't notice it just now, but only now did he notice that there was an arrow sticking obliquely on her right arm.

Shen Muxiao seemed to be unable to feel the pain anymore, some kind of more illusory emotion was suppressed in her heart.She tried hard to control her eyes, but her eyes would always drift to Roja's corpse.

Congealed blood, broken limbs, broken bones protruding from the skin, brand marks on the skin...

God knows how much he suffered.

"Don't treat him like this..." Shen Muxiao said to himself in despair, "Mr. Luo Ya is such a kind man..."

She curled up, buried her face in her hands, sobbed softly, and muttered some words of self-blame.

"Ah Xiao!" Gilgamesh grabbed her wrist and forcibly straightened her body, letting him look at him, "No one knew in advance that such a terrible thing would happen."

How could Xiao Shenmu not know this?

"But... if I let Martin or Joan stay..."

"It's not yourself that you should blame, don't you understand that?" Gilgamesh said a little sullenly, while wiping the tears off her face very ungently, "Now, let me see your wound. "

Shen Muxiao nodded, no longer struggling or resisting.Gilgamesh carefully straightened her right arm and examined the wound carefully.

Although the wound seemed to be bleeding profusely, and there was an arrow stuck in it, which was terrifying, but in fact the arrow just pierced into the skin obliquely, at best it was just a little flesh wound, and did not hurt the muscles or bones.

Gilgamesh checked his whole body again, and found that apart from his arms, his shoulders and other places were injured.

He didn't know what to say all of a sudden, he just felt angry.

"There is no danger of life, fortunately... This king is not a doctor, you should go to the military doctor's office to bandage it."

Shen Muxiao nodded.

After a fierce battle, her steps were a little vain.She didn't dare to ask Gilgamesh to help her, so she quietly grabbed the hem of his clothes.Gilgamesh feigned ignorance, allowing the blood to stain his clothes in a rare act.

Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks, turned his head abruptly, and focused his gaze on the forest.

"I always feel that someone... is a follower?"

Shen Muxiao was shocked: "Assassin?!"

When it comes to servants, she can't help but think of the suspected assassin at the fortress.

Gilgamesh shook his head: "Have you ever seen an assassin with a bow and arrow on his back?"

A man in a green cloak stood on a branch with his hood pulled down over his features.
