A dimensional journey starting from the Dragon Clan

Chapter 1227: The Rookie Magician Who Doesn't Know What's Going On

"..."

The girl... Saber still looked at Shirou Emiya calmly in the chaos, as if she didn't quite understand his behavior.

"No, that's not right. What happened just now doesn't count. That's not what I want to ask. In other words..."

"I see. You're not a regular Master, right?"

"Huh..."

"But even if that's the case, you're still my Master. Since we've exchanged contracts, I won't betray you. There's no need to be so vigilant."

"Hmm..."

Oops...

Although I could understand every word she said, I couldn't understand what she was saying together.

Shirou Emiya felt helpless.

"No. My name isn't Master..."

"Then it's Shirou. Well, I like this pronunciation better."

"............!"

When she said Shirou, Shirou Emiya thought he was about to burst into flames.

Because generally speaking, shouldn't you call someone you meet for the first time by their last name instead of their first name...! ?

"Wait, why are you screaming────"

"It hurts...!"

Suddenly, my left hand went numb.

"It's so hot...!"

The back of my hand was getting hot.

The left hand was burning hot.

A strange emblem like a tattoo was engraved on it.

"What..."

"That's what's called a Command Seal, Shirou. It's the three powers of command that bind us servants, and it's also the qualification of a Master. Please avoid using it casually."

"You, you..."

What exactly is it? When Shirou Emiya finally wanted to ask, the girl suddenly became alert.

"...Shirou, please heal the wound."

The girl said in a cold voice.

When she spoke, her attention was not on Shirou Emiya, but on the distance──outside the wall.

Shirou Emiya didn't have such a sharp sense, but he was a little confused about what the girl said. Heal, did she mean for him to do it...?

"Wait, aren't you talking to me? Sorry, I don't know such difficult magic, and isn't it already healed?"

Saber frowned slightly.

"..." Shirou Emiya felt as if he had said something he shouldn't have said.

"...Then I will face the enemy like this. Although the automatic repair is only superficial, it should be no problem to fight again..." the girl said helplessly.

"...? What do you mean by once again?"

"There are two enemies outside. With this level of pressure, they should be defeated in a few seconds."

Saber said this and jumped lightly.

Like Lancer, she flew over the wall and went outside.

Only Shirou Emiya was left in the courtyard.

"...There are enemies outside?"

As he said this, he understood what the situation was.

"Wait, are you saying you still want to fight...!"

The body moved. Shirou Emiya ran towards the door with all his strength without thinking.

"Haa, haa, ha────!"

He ran to the door, hurriedly opened the bolt and rushed outside.

"Saber, where...!?"

He stared in the dark night

At this time, the moon was covered, and the surroundings were sealed in darkness.

But────

A sound was heard nearby.

"Over there...!"

He ran to an empty alley.

"Huh?"

It happened in an instant.

In front of Saber was a man in a red coat.

The red-clothed man was attacked by Saber, and his body was unable to defend himself, and he was about to be hit by a fatal blow.

And behind him.

The figure watching Saber under the protection of the red-clothed man was undoubtedly someone Shirou Emiya knew.

"Stop─────"

Shirou Emiya stretched his left hand forward and opened his throat.

He didn't know who the red-clothed man was.

But after he fell to the ground, Saber would definitely attack the person behind him without hesitation.

This kind of thing was absolutely not allowed.

He couldn't watch her get killed!

"Stop, Saber─────!!!!!!"

"Ugh──────!?"

Suddenly, there was a slight sting.

One of the marks engraved on the back of his left hand disappeared.

As if it was the price.

Saber stopped the attack that should have been unstoppable.

"Hmm..."

Instantly, the silver armor stopped moving as if petrified.

Using this gap, the red-clothed man immediately distanced himself.

"That guy──is that the one from before?"

There's no mistake.

The red knight is the guy who just fought with Lancer.

"..."

So, the girl behind that guy is... the master of this man?

That...I don't dare to imagine it, but it's probably like that, right? Emiya Shirou roughly understood the situation.

"Are you crazy, Shirou? If you had continued like that just now, you would have been able to deal with Archer and his master. But you used the Command Seal and missed this great opportunity!" The girl's tone was somewhat dissatisfied.

"..."

Emiya Shirou was speechless.

No, even if you said that, what can he do?

He doesn't understand what this is like now.

You can't see your acquaintance killed by the girl who just saved you, right?

"Master, please take back your instructions. With your attitude, even opponents who can be defeated will become unstoppable."

Saber once again held up "something" in her hand.

In front of her was the man in red whom she had failed to defeat just now───

"...No. Stop it first, Saber. To be honest, I'm completely confused right now. Besides───the person you are planning to attack is someone I know. You want me to watch her being attacked by you, I can't do it either."

"What are you talking about? She is Archer's master. She is our enemy. If we don't deal with it here..."

"?"

enemy?

Are the man in red and Tohsaka Rin's enemy?

"...I don't know about this kind of thing. Besides, even though you call me Master, I don't know anything at all. What exactly does Master mean? I should at least explain it to some extent, right?"

"Having said that, but..."

Saber looked embarrassed and began to speak slurred words.

And on the other side.

"─I see. I seem to understand what's going on. You don't know what it means to be a Master at all, right? Are you the so-called rookie Master who doesn't know the situation?"

A voice that sounded polite but sounded harsh came to Emiya Shirou.

Emiya Shirou followed the sound, and in front of him were the man in red and the girl in uniform who came out from behind him.

"call……"

He couldn't help but swallow.

Apparently it wasn't him who was dazzled.

The person next to the man in red is undoubtedly Tohsaka Rin.

??????55.??????

"Tohsaka Rin..."

Emiya Shirou didn't know what to say.

The man behind Tohsaka was not human, and he knew this.

That, like Saber, does not belong to this world.

So... Tohsaka, who is taking him with him, is of course also the Master, but what does this really mean?

"Huh? So you know me. What, this will make things much easier. Anyway, let's say good evening, Emiya-san."

Does she have any intentions? Emiya Shirou felt a little confused when he saw Tohsaka greeting him with a smile.

"Ah...huh?"

In this situation, Emiya Shirou was speechless.

When she greets her with such a natural greeting, it seems that all the strange things that have happened so far are just a lie, and I subconsciously want to say hello and go back───

"Bai...you idiot, no matter what the situation is, you still have a good night. Tohsaka, you...\\n.\\n.\\n.\\n.\\n.\\n!"

"That's right, you and I are both masters. That means magicians. We have similar identities, so there's no need to hide it, right?"

"You mean, a magician───? No, you are a magician, Tohsaka.\\n.\\n.\\n.\\n.\\n.\\n!?"

Emiya Shirou opened his eyes wide and pointed his finger at Tohsaka inadvertently.

"Ah──────"

……Oh no.

I don't know why Tohsaka was staring at him as if he was very unhappy.

"Ah, no, no. That's not what I want to say."

"...So it turns out. I understand, that means you are like this, right? You don't know the slightest bit about everything that happened?"

Tohsaka glanced at us, then turned back to the man behind him.

"Archer, I'm sorry, can you transform back into your spirit body for a moment? I'm a little angry."

"That doesn't matter...what do you mean by Huoda?"

"That's the literal meaning. I can't bear to let him know what the current situation is. I don't have your presence before this, so you disappear first. Saber won't put away her sword if you are here."

"Huh, I'm forcing someone to do something difficult again. But since it's an order, I can only accept it... I'll give you a piece of advice, what you want to do is unnecessary."

The man disappeared like a phantom.

"To-Tohsaka, was that just now!?"

"Don't worry about it until we get inside. You don't know anything anyway, Emiya-san. Don't worry, I will tell you everything even if you say no."

After leaving these words, Tohsaka quickly walked towards the door.

"Hey───Wait Tohsaka, what are you thinking about?\\n.\\n.\\n.\\n.\\n.\\n!"

Emiya Shirou subconsciously stopped shouting.

At this time────

Tohsaka's expression when he looked back was completely different from the smile just now.

"You're so stupid. I've thought about a lot of things. That's why I told you. Emiya-san, it's okay to be surprised by unexpected situations, but sometimes if you don't accept it honestly, it could kill you. Oh. By the way, you should know that the current situation is serious, right?"

"……Well."

"It's good that you understand. Then let's go to Emiya-san's house. You don't have any objection to this, right Saber? In order to repay you for letting us go, I will tell your Master a lot of things."

"...Okay. Although I don't know what your intentions are, as long as you are helping the Master, I will restrain myself."

Tohsaka walked into the door of Emiya's residence.

"...That guy seems very angry?"

Emiya Shirou didn't know why Tohsaka Rin was angry.

It just feels very strange.

It should be said that everything that happened tonight was inexplicable to him.

Having said that, this guy... seems to be 180 degrees different from the impression she gave people in school...

······

I don't know why it turned into this incredible situation.

In front of him was the school idol who was walking quickly, Tohsaka Rin, whom Emiya Shirou admired, and behind him was the blond girl who followed him without saying a word, Saber, who claimed to be a servant.

"..."

ah.

How does Emiya Shirou feel? The corridor seems to have become an alien space.

Then again, he couldn't always be timid.

He's still half a magician, but he's still a magician.

It seems that Tohsaka, who is also a magician, can be so upright.

If he doesn't cheer up, he will be looked down upon.

...Having said that, there are only a few trivial things that come to mind.

First, following him was Saber.

She calls herself the master. Judging from the fact that she has made a contract, it is most likely that she is a familiar.

The so-called familiar is said to be a kind of auxiliary thing that helps the magician.

Most of them are transplanted from a part of the magician's body and are sent as clones.

The familiar is the magician's assistant.

Therefore, it is necessary to put as little burden on the magician as possible, and use small animals that do not need much magic power to do the job.

This is indeed what she heard, but...

"What's the matter, Shirou?" Perhaps because she felt Emiya Shirou's gaze, the blond girl was a little confused.

"Ah...no, it's nothing."

Emiya Shirou also realized that his gaze was rude.

Saber is human no matter what. And he was obviously better than his master.

Facing such a person, he didn't have the magic power to bind her, and besides... he didn't even have the magic circuit to summon a familiar.

"..."

Therefore, Emiya Shirou thought that there must be some slight differences between Saber and familiars.

She calls herself a follower.

He didn't know what it was, but whether it was the man named Lancer or the man in red that Tohsaka brought with him, he thought they were all the same thing.

Saber said Tohsaka is also the Master.

So, a magician with a servant is called a master, right?

...Tohsaka seems to be a magician too, so he has no reason to know her background.

The Emiya family are outsiders who came to this city only from their father's generation.

Therefore, Shirou Emiya didn't know that Tohsaka was a magician, and Tohsaka didn't seem to know that he was learning magic.

...In this city, there are more than a plurality of magicians that he doesn't know about.

If the man named Lancer is also a follower of other magicians, that means he has already entered into the struggle between magicians?

"..."

"Wow, the place is quite big. The Japanese-style house is also quite novel. Ah! Emiya-san, is that the living room?"

As he said this, Tohsaka entered the living room and seemed curious about everything around him, without feeling nervous at all.

"..."

So much for thinking.

Anyway, Emiya Shirou entered the living room to listen to Tohsaka's explanation.

He turned on the light.

The hour hand points to one o'clock in the morning.

"Wow, it's so cold! What's going on? Isn't the glass in the window broken?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. I was attacked by that guy named Lancer. How could I have cared so much at that time!"

"Ah, that's what happened. So before you called Saber out, did you fight him alone?"
