"Is that when the magical power completely disappears, you are about to leave..." Hongye stood a few steps away from her.

"Well, that's true."

It is a very happy thing to meet a friend who I thought I would never see again, but after only getting along for a short time, Hongye still feels a little lost after being separated again.

The friend she met in her dream, the girl knight king with blond hair and blue eyes, existed more than 500 years ago, and every encounter can be called a miracle.

The miraculous blond girl smiled gently: "Don't be sad, Hongye, I am very happy to meet again."

For Artoria, whose time was still at the Sword Hill of Kamran, time had passed not long ago, and the last time it was separated by death, the girl who had strayed into a dream lay silently in her arms with her eyes closed , the body gradually dissipated with the end of the dream.

Artoria didn't know whether Hongye would wake up or die because of it, so when she saw Hongye again, she was overjoyed.

She stretched out her hand towards the red leaves that came in a hurry.

"Since there is still some time...maybe because when I met you, I thought you were Guinevere, so I don't know much about you. Can you tell me something about you?"

The girl Knight King's palms were warm but not soft, with thick calluses on the fingertips and palms, completely different from Hongye's palms.

Hongye said: "Of course, but I'm not very good at telling stories, and I probably can't tell them as well as Tristan."

"It's just a selfish desire to know more about my friend." Artoria laughed.

The blond girl looked up at the lush tree crown above her head, wrapped her arm around Hongye's waist, jumped up lightly, put Hongye on a thicker branch, and then sat beside her.

The dense branches and leaves blocked the figures of two of the girls, and the chirping of birds was repeated, making the atmosphere rare and leisurely.The red-haired girl leaned on her shoulders, her amber eyes lowered slightly, and she talked to Artoria about her life, as well as the most important elder brother and everyone in the Barbara.

"You have a very reliable companion and family." Arturia said gently, "This makes me feel at ease. You are not alone. The young man I saw before came here ten years ago to find Hongye's brother."

Hongye nodded: "Yes, it's my brother, he's super powerful."

King Arthur touched the red hair of the girl leaning on his shoulder: "That's right."

After talking about her own affairs, it was Hongye's turn to ask this time: "Then what about Al? Why did you participate in the Holy Grail War...?"

In R4, Hongye learned something about the destroyed Fuyuki City, and naturally also knew about the Holy Grail, an item that was said to be a universal wishing machine.Hongye felt that the girl named Artoria was perfect, but she still felt that she was not good enough, and wanted to change the history of her becoming a king, so that Britain would continue to prosper.

"Do you still want someone else to be king, Al?"

"Until now, I still think about whether it would be more suitable to lead Britain if someone else pulled out the sword in the stone." Artoria said softly, "I pursue the Holy Grail precisely to overturn my history , but the Holy Grail can no longer fulfill my wish, it has disappeared."

What's more, the black mud gushing out of the golden cup swallowed the red-haired woman in an instant, and then spread beyond the barrier, turning the entire Fuyuki City into ashes.

If the population of Fuyuki City had not been evacuated by the King of Blue before the war started, it would have caused unimaginable casualties and disasters.

That's the true face of the "Holy Grail" she's after...

"Even if it doesn't disappear, I will destroy it with my own hands. It is no longer a 'wishing machine' that can fulfill wishes, but a terrifying monster."

"Then what are you going to do next?"

Hongye raised her head and stared at her, while Arturia lowered her eyes slightly, with a hint of a smile on her lips.

"I will continue to look for other paths."

With the disappearance of the Holy Grail, the contract Arturia signed also lost its effect, but the Holy Grail was not destroyed by her hands, so she will continue to travel through time and space, looking for other ways to realize her wishes.

"Maybe we can meet again in the future, Hongye." The blond king said with a smile.

"I think you've done a good job, Al, and I don't want the history with you to disappear." Hongye clasped Artoria's palm, "In that case, I won't know another man named Alto. Leah's noble, upright and valiant King of Knights."

Facing the girl's coquettish words, the blond king shook his head helplessly and did not answer.Her thoughts are very firm, Hongye's words can't shake her in the slightest, Hongye knows that if she uses her strength, she might be able to do this, but she doesn't want to do that.

Even if she disagrees with it very much, she will still support Artoria, just hoping that she can change her mind one day.

"Then, farewell, Hongye."

Saying so, the King of Knights leaned over, touched Momiji's forehead lightly with his lips, and gave a farewell gift with a meaning of blessing.

In the end, Hongye watched Arturia's figure gradually disappear, and pursed her lips.The young man who didn't know when he arrived stood still under the tree, looked up at the red leaves on the tree, and opened his arms.

Hongye stretched her arms, jumped straight into Zhou Fangzun's arms, and was fully embraced by him.

The girl was very light, and she didn't weigh much when she jumped from a high place. Zhou Fangzun caught her easily, as if holding a small animal, and put her on the ground.

"That machine, it is said that it can be repaired in the evening, and it will be fine by then."

After putting her down, the young man's deep voice sounded.

"Where did brother go? I haven't seen you before."

"It's over there with Kusanagi."

"Before I leave, I have to say goodbye to Kusanagi." Momiji thought for a while, wringing her fingers, "I feel like I've been saying goodbye since I came here."

"Ah." Zhou Fangzun's response was too brief.

Hongye squinted, glanced at him, then lowered her head to count the time.

"I want to go to the place where the blue clothes are, and meet those followers of me ten years later. My brother also knows a little bit about me..."

"kindness."

Hongye glanced at him again: "I think if it was me, I might be able to help a little, and there is still time."

"Oh." It was still a monophonic answer.

Hongye also wanted to say a few more words to her brother, but the young man seemed to be thinking about something in his head, so the answer was too brief.Zhou Fangzun has been like this since before, and Kusanagi Izumo joked that "because he is an idiot, his brain is not enough for two purposes". When he is thinking about something, he basically can't talk to people.

There was really no way, just when she was planning to go there as agreed, the young man left before her.

"Let's go."

"Ehhhhhh?" Hongye opened her eyes wide.

Seeing that she didn't follow, Zhou Fangzun stopped, turned his head to confirm, "Aren't you going to Lan Yi's place?"

"That's right..."

"Let's go, I'll accompany you there."

Hongye blinked her eyes, raised a smile, and caught up with her brother in three steps at a time.

"……kindness!"

****

"I'll give you a small gift, Hongyejiang." Before Bai Lan bid farewell, the white-haired young man whispered in her ear, with a gentle tone, "This is developed for the girl I love, but unfortunately she no longer uses it. It’s gone, so I decided to give it to you.”

"If that person reaches the limit, you can replace him before he dies and become the Scarlet Queen. This is what I hope too."

"Instead of my brother...?"

Hongye was stunned for a second, then realized what Bai Lan was referring to, she clenched her fingers tightly, accepting his kindness.

"I accept it, thank you, Bai Lan."

"Then live happily and be a happy fool."

He gave a low laugh.

"It also made me suffer a lot from ten years ago. That stinky brat is also my rival in love."

That thing was lying quietly in Hongye's pocket now, Hongye touched it, and took the palm of the young man beside him.

"Oh, that's right." After walking two steps, she heard Zhou Fangzun say in a normal tone like eating and drinking, "I heard from Kusanagi, here you got a boyfriend when you were barking at Wuluo."

"Ehhh?!" Hongye almost choked on her own saliva, she couldn't believe what she heard, "Why, how is it possible?! Why didn't Kusanagi tell me?"

"Is it."

Hongye recalled the list of all members of Barbara, but couldn't find any possibility at all, so she had to grab his sleeve in panic.

"Who is it?! Who is it, brother?"

Zhou Fangzun raised his eyebrows, looked down at the girl's flustered and shy face, her beautiful face was slightly red, and she looked delicate and cute.It was rare for him to be teasing, and he snorted lazily with a smile, and stopped talking.

"……elder brother!"

"what."

"You're super bad."

Arriving at the destination just in time, he rubbed Hongye's head smoothly: "Here we are, let's go."

Obviously don't want to say anything.

Hongye looked at him weeping, responded aggrievedly, and walked towards the gate.

After taking two steps, the young man teased with a low-pitched smile from behind.

"Little girl."

Hongye turned her head, and saw Zhou Fangzun with a smile on his mouth, his hands in his coat pockets, all the hard edges seemed to be softened by these three words.

As an older brother, he always wants his younger sister to grow up later, stay by his side longer, and protect her for a while longer, instead of watching her fall into the arms of others.

Just a little wish from my brother.
