I'm Shenji, what are you doing?
Chapter 554: Night Talk·Leticia (two chapters in one)
As soon as the topic of Leticia came up, Jeanne became beaming with joy.
"She is a very good girl."
"Even if you don't say it, I know it. Although it is a bit careless and reckless, for an ordinary girl to be able to hand over her body to you without hesitation, her courage is enough to impress people."
Shinji did not hesitate to praise Joan of Arc's body.
"In a sense, you are really alike. You were inspired by the Lord to join the battlefield. She heard your voice and came here resolutely."
"It's true what you said, and we are all attracted by other things."
At this point, Jeanne couldn't help but laugh out loud.
What attracted Joan of Arc was undoubtedly modern food, transportation, and various knowledge that she had never been exposed to, especially mathematics.
It is not difficult to guess what attracts Leticia. The Holy Grail War, magic, and the existence of unrealistic fantasy called Servants are all new things that ordinary people cannot come into contact with.
"Wait a minute, I'll call her out right now."
"Is this okay? With me, a stranger, at this time."
Although I can’t remember what kind of character this girl is, it’s almost midnight, and being alone with a strange man is not what a girl should do. What’s more, she is from a missionary school - Shinji put himself in Leticia’s shoes For your own sake.
"Do not worry about it."
The girl responded, her voice still the same, but obviously much weaker. He still looks the same, but a little more timid.
"I also want to help you and the Saint."
"Leticia?" Shinji blinked.
"That, yes. You are right, I... am Leticia."
Being stared at by a strange man, the girl clenched her fists uneasily.
"It's our first time meeting you. Although it's a bit strange to say this, it's nice to meet you."
Shenji tried his best to look kind and not scare the girl in front of him.
"Me, too, I'm glad to be able to talk to Mr. Shinji in this way, because I was just watching before."
"It's amazing just to be able to watch it. That kind of earth-shattering scene can easily leave a shadow on people's hearts."
A human being living a normal life in the world is suddenly possessed by a saint one day, and is also involved in the war surrounding the Holy Grail. Although the consciousness is sleeping internally and there is no need to fight personally, sometimes you will still inadvertently see some unbearable cruel scenes.
In response to Shinji's sigh, Leticia showed a soft smile that was slightly different from Jeanne's - they had exactly the same appearance, but there was a clear difference in the atmosphere.
"It's no problem now. The Holy Lady has always cared about me. And everyone is a very good person, Mr. Shinji, Miss Arturia, Miss Lingxia and little Jack... I still don't know Magic is a person who really doesn’t understand anything.”
The girl said as she put her hands together in a praying posture.
"If the Holy Lady hadn't come, I might have lived in a state of not knowing anything. However, I still learned about these things in this way, and I also encountered people who would have only been in myths and legends. All the heroes who are praised."
"I'm not a hero. Did I let you down?"
"No, not at all." Leticia shook her head repeatedly, "Mr. Shinji is strong, handsome, and smart. He is no worse than those heroes."
"Haha, thank you for giving me such a high evaluation. But I know that I am still far from them, really far away."
Shenji narrowed his eyes, looking a little lonely. Seeing his expression, Leticia looked very anxious.
"No, no, Mr. Shenji is really a very, very powerful person, because I have been watching, all the time, all the time -"
For Leticia, this was a very dreamy time.
Before that, her lifestyle was very simple and she felt cramped and suffocated every day.
Pray in the morning, pray at noon, pray at night, pray before eating, pray before going to bed.
Friends in the dormitory often take a proper breather. She didn't intend to blame them, but she also felt that it would be better to relax appropriately. She obviously thought so, but for some reason she had no intention of doing so - maybe it was because she was afraid of things that would make her heart beat.
Like spending every day in the deep ocean. There is no great joy or sadness, just a normal life.
The college she lives in has nothing particularly distinctive. Friends complained that it was like a prison. On the other hand, because contact with the outside world is not completely cut off, some people easily embark on the path of self-destruction, while others regret it.
In such an environment, people said it was a shame that she could restrain herself so strictly.
He has not fallen in communication with the outside world, nor has he turned this into excessive self-esteem.
Whether it is teachers or friends, they are always praising her for some reason.
Everyone says that this way of living is beautiful and correct.
She could only accept these compliments with an ambiguous smile, but at the same time she was troubled in her heart - that was not the case at all.
She was just afraid of change.
She knows her character very well. He has no self-control at all, the brakes have long been broken, and once he starts running, he will only continue to accelerate, with no way to slow down.
Even if there is a cliff in front of her, she will jump directly. She couldn't stop until she fell into the abyss and died.
Therefore, she has no connection with the outside world, but she will not feel great joy in prison. After all, her parents are outside the country, and it is simply impossible to completely cut off contact.
It's really not possible to reach the shore on both sides - she wanted to laugh at herself like this.
She does not want to be associated with others and be infected with the atmosphere of the world, so that she can become an extremely ordinary person. But at the same time, he does not have the courage to dedicate himself to a world that is insulated from the outside world and governed only by taboos.
Overall, she just doesn’t know what she should aim for, and I can’t find the path I should take. He was just walking along the dimly visible road in a daze, with empty steps and fearful steps.
Forget it, at this point, it didn't matter what happened, right? She walked forward with a semi-self-defeating mood.
No matter what awaits her on the road ahead. Anyway, I don’t know anything, so there’s nothing I can do about it. Even if you fall into the secular world, even if you want to become a criminal, even if you want to regret it... you will all give up on the grounds that "there is no other way".
Just at this time - she had a dream and saw a road.
Joan of Arc asked her for help. With the knowledge inserted into her mind, she instantly understood and accepted everything.
Of course, she had her fears. With the Holy Grail at the center, the heroes are fighting each other fiercely. This is definitely not something that a mortal like himself should participate in.
However, in the end, she agreed, and solemnly declined the persuasion "as long as you stay asleep", and witnessed everything that happened through the vision of the saint.
Whether it was a battle scene that was beyond imagination, or a miserable scene filled with nauseating disgust, she saw it all.
Perhaps the fact of being "inside a safe circle" became a mental barrier, and she saw things that no one else but me would ever be able to see even if they spent their entire lives.
Heroes galloping on the battlefield, brave men who smashed huge stone statues with mysterious weapons. There were also magicians who used weird spells, and they even saw a large fortress filled with monsters that couldn't be killed no matter how hard they were killed.
In these scenes of legends becoming reality, she felt how insignificant, stupid and ignorant she was.
It is indeed the difference between heaven and earth. Just treat it all as a dream, and when it's over, go back to your own world, return to the usual world, bury all the secrets deep in your heart, and it would be nice to have a chance to think about it, after all, that It is not a world that I can touch.
She thought this more than once, but whenever she wanted to make up her mind, that person would appear and tell her that the distance between the two worlds was not so far away, and there was still room for her to exist here.
Although that person also possesses powers beyond common sense, he does not exude an aura that is incompatible with the modern world like other heroes.
He can use common hitchhiking gestures to stop cars, and he has received a complete modern education. The way he talks and handles things is not much different from ordinary people. They will get carried away, show off deliberately, and get crazy and make trouble.
To be honest, compared to the Saint, he has many shortcomings. But it was these shortcomings that made Leticia feel real, and her eyes were unknowingly attracted to him, and she couldn't help but want to cheer him up.
After all, civilian heroes and grassroots elites will always be particularly favored by ordinary people.
When she saw that he was seriously injured, she was very anxious.
When she saw him cheer up, she was so happy again.
When she heard him drawing pictures, she felt that she could do something for him. For the first time, she urged the Holy Lady to come over. For the first time, she took the initiative to intervene in this world that should not belong to her.
Although she felt a little sorry for the dedicated Saint, she really hoped that he could achieve the final victory.
"So, Mr. Shenji, you must be fine. You have to have confidence in yourself. I, I will do my best to help you."
Seeing Leticia like this, working so hard to cheer herself up, Shinji also had a smile on his face.
"How can you help me?"
"Well, I heard from Miss Lingxia that you are drawing the structural diagram of the hanging garden."
Leticia, who lacked confidence, took a deep breath and mustered up all her courage.
"I have some experience in painting...well, I have some experience. When the saint came to the garden, I kept watching. I think I can help!"
"That's right. Can you please draw a rough outline of the exterior and a map of the route Joan of Arc took?"
"I will work hard."
"Okay, this is the momentum. First, help me see if there is anything wrong with my painting..."
"Um!"
So the two of them moved the paper and pens on the desk to the coffee table, occupied one side of each other, and began to burn the midnight oil.
Outside the ajar door, Fiore watched this scene quietly, her expression changing several times, and finally she let out an inaudible sigh and left quietly.
◇◇◇
Shenji is not the only one who keeps getting angry and doesn't sleep, but there are also enemies he must defeat.
Due to two consecutive illusions, the palace where the Great Holy Grail was originally stored can no longer be used. Semiramis, as the master of the garden, temporarily opened a new altar.
Although it was opened temporarily, the altar still maintained the usual grandeur and luxury of the garden.
The altar is separated from the surrounding space by magical distortion, creating a sense of endless vastness.
Although it looks like a basin as a whole, only the central part is flat. Walking down the wide steps made of burnt bricks to the center, you can see the stolen Fuyuki Great Holy Grail floating there.
The posture that emits blue-white light looks like the moon that was summoned to this space.
But even more stunning is the altar ceiling.
The ceiling is made of transparent crystal, and the top of the crystal is filled with "water".
It was literally an inverted lake. Water lilies of various colors - blue, red, yellow - bloomed on the lake - like a rainbow-colored sky.
This is a wonderful scene that can only be realized in the "vanity sky courtyard" with a "reverse concept". Here, water flows to high places and people walk to low places.
Unfortunately, this fantasy and beauty was completely destroyed by the owner of the altar, a white-haired young man wearing a monk's uniform.
The space outside the altar is invaded by large areas of black, as if it is the ashes left after being burned by the fire, and it also looks like a dark and curious work of the Tou Xiang School.
Following the movements of the boy on the altar, the blackened ground bulged irregularly, like bubbles, or something gathering and rolling in the black.
Soon, these black bulges gathered together, growing and rising, and finally took on the shape of black human beings.
Except for the overall color, these human figures are almost the same as real people. Both the details of the clothes and the facial features have been well restored. The only difference is that the human form is still a human form, with a dead expression on its face and no life in sight.
The last human form was completed. The boy gathered away the red and blue magic power on his arm, reached out to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Good, that's done."
"Using the souls of the servants contained in the Small Holy Grail as the base, I use my Noble Phantasm to connect and awaken their spiritual bases, and finally use the illusory properties of the garden to create the 'Shadow Servants'."
"Although the principle is different from the original version, there is no difference in performance. Of course, it also has the disadvantages of limited IQ and Noble Phantasm."
"However, even if the Noble Phantasm is restricted, the strength of these Shadow Servants is still strong. After all, this is the largest Holy Grail War in the Middle East, and the five Servants participating in the war are all top-notch."
"The next step is up to you - Shadow Archer Arash, Shadow Lancer Romulus, Shadow Caster Hohenheim, Shadow Assassin Prodigal Son Yan Qing, and Shadow Berserker Beowulf."
"Don't think that if I give away all the cards, there will be no cards to play. After all, those who use the existing decks are only second-rate, and those who can print their own cards are the king. I am the legendary card king! - The so-called gap in numbers starts from It didn’t exist in the first place, hahahahaha!!!”
PS: Sure enough, Shinji is going to defeat Shirou.
PS2: That’s it for today.
