fate: I tear up the heroic spirit

"Why is this?"

Artoria had tears in her eyes.

The once harmonious inhabitants of the town are dead, the neighbors, the people who have lived with her for so many years.

The town has too many memories of her.

Now, it's ruined!

"Let's go, Saber."

Shirou Eimiya sighed.

"Shirou, you obviously saw all this, why are you indifferent, aren't you sad? Or is your heart always so hard-hearted!

Artoria didn't understand why Shirou had this attitude, only felt that Shirou was full of strangeness.

Obviously, he also saw all this, but he could not see any of his sadness, any pain.

There is no anger in sight, there is, just a terrible calm like backwater.

"Because we can't do anything, we can't resurrect the dead, we can't change what has happened before us, Britain has fallen into war, let's go, leave Britain."

Shirou Eimiya was still so calm.

But there was a tingling sensation in his heart.

He is not without feelings, he is not without pain.

It's that he's already numb.

Despair was so numb that he was used to this scene.

He has lost too much, desperately trying to save everything, saving everything, but has failed to do anything.

Finally jumped out of the abyss, but came to this world.

As long as Leah is there, he can stop thinking about the past.

As long as Leah can live happily, that's all, he is already satisfied.

"I will not leave Britain!"

Artoria's tone was so categorical.

At this moment, she saw in the eyes of Shirou Emiya that she had never had before, as if the darkness that swallowed everything.

This was the endless pain and despair hidden in his heart.

Artoria had never seen Shirou look like this.

At this moment, she seemed to understand something.

After a moment of silence, she spoke again, "I'm sorry... I shouldn't say that about you. "

She has lived with Shirou Emiya since she was a child, and she knows all too well what kind of person Shirou is.

He has his own kindness, kindness to others.

The reason why he is so calm is not that he does not feel pain, but because the pain and despair he has experienced is so much that he has become numb.

Shirou Emiya remained silent and did not speak again, but looked at Artoria's eyes that were still so gentle.

"I am the son of Uther Pendragon, and I have the blood of a king in my body... After so many years of escaping and immersing myself in my own joy, I have never known what kind of hardship the people of Britain are living in..."

Artoria took a deep breath, and at this moment she made a decision, so she said: "I have decided to inherit the throne and shoulder all that!"

"Even if you can't change all this in the end, even if you regret your decision, do you have to persevere?"

It was difficult for Shirou Eimiya to describe his feelings at the moment, because his heart was already extremely complicated.

In the end, did Leah still make such a choice?

It all seems to have returned to zero.

He seemed to see her standing on the hill of Kamran again, full of despair...

"If you know that I should shoulder that, I will save Britain, and I don't do it, is this what you want to see?"

Artoria asked rhetorically.

Shirou Eimiya seemed to see the invisible light on Artoria at this moment.

She is so kind, attracted to herself, let herself like her, isn't it this kindness in her?

"Go, no matter what choice you make, I will support you and help you!"

Shirou Emiya smiled.

His heart, which had been quiet for a long time, and thought that he had already been cold began to beat.

He doesn't want to run away anymore, this time, he wants to choose to fight fate and help Artoria!

"Thank you

, Shirou..." Artoria hugged Shirou, but tears couldn't stop welling up on her face.

It seems that no matter what, there is always such a person in the world who will help her without asking for anything in return and will always understand her.

So, even without parents, she is not alone.

Because Shirou Emiya has always accompanied her and given her too much warmth.

If they really parted ways because of their choice, Artoria would be miserable because she cared so much about Shirou.

He has become the most important being in her life.

......

According to Merlin's prophecy, the knights wanted to elect a new king in the cemetery of the National Church in the form of drawing a sword in the stone.

Artoria and Shirou Emiya have already arrived.

This time, Artoria will go and pull out the sword in the stone.

"I'll go out."

Shirou Eimiya said to Artoria.

Then he stood alone in a clearing.

"Merlin, I know you've been there and you can hear me."

Shirou Emiya's voice was full of indifference.

"Shirou Emiya, you shouldn't appear in this world."

Merlin's voice appeared in Shirou Eimiya's mind.

"Do you know where I'm from? Know who I am?

Shirou Eimiya asked.

"You are, the one who rebels against fate."

Merlin's answer was somewhat vague.

"So, will I win or lose this time?"

Shirou Emiya asked again.

"I... I don't know, but those who rebel against fate don't end well.

"Good ending? Will I end well if I don't resist fate?

Shirou Emiya's words sent Merlin silent.

"Look, Merlin, I'll make it, absolutely!"

Day 2.

A large number of knights have gathered here, all hoping that they will be able to draw the sword in the stone, or perhaps they are the new king destined to save Britain.

Artoria and Shirou Emiya walked towards the sword in the stone.

"Do any newcomers think they have the qualifications to become kings?"

"Who is that guy? Is it also a knight, how come you have never seen him?

"Hmph! Bite off more than one can chew! "

All eyes are on Shirou Emiya and Artoria.

But there are so many people who come here every day to try to pull out the sword in the stone, and no one can pull out the sword.

Even they had begun to wonder if Merlin's language was true.

Probably, no one will be able to pull out this sword.

Shirou Emiya and Artoria both stood in front of the sword in the stone.

It was at this moment that Merlin's voice appeared in Artoria's mind.

"Before you pick up that thing, it's better to think about it carefully. Once you pick up that sword, you will no longer be human until the end, you will be hated by all humans, and finally meet a tragic death! "
