Lost Narrative Poetry

Experienced some twists and turns? What exactly does this briefly mentioned part look like?

Yukinoshita keenly felt that there were definitely many articles in it, and it was definitely not as simple as Xia Ran said.

Not only because of her intuition, but also because when Xia Ran mentioned this matter, her name was Artoria Pendragon, and her true identity was said to be the King of Ancient Britain and the Lord of Camelot. The expression of King Arthur's maiden looked very strange.

This kind of performance was just as big as "There is a hidden secret" written on his face. It was naturally impossible for Yukinoshita to ignore it.

But the only thing that is certain is that at least the general process should be no problem, because she knows very well that since this person can say it to herself, it means that what he says can withstand verification.

And... although she didn't want to admit it, Yukinoshita subconsciously determined that this person would not lie to her. This was an unreasonable feeling, which made her feel very unfulfilled.

After a slight hesitation, the girl did not go to the bottom of the matter, but instead asked another important question:

"So, what is this Miss King Arthur praying for at the cost of her own soul? Why did she sign a contract with you and become your Servant? Is it because you have the ability to fulfill her prayer?"

"This question seems to involve personal privacy... Maybe you can ask Saber, if she is willing to answer you."

Xia Ran chuckled lightly. This was what he wanted to see. Even if Yukinoshita didn't ask this question, he would find a way for her to improve her understanding of Saber.

——After all, although mystery can be transformed into attraction, only mystery can be attractive. Once the mystery is excessive, it will turn into concealment.

At that time, don't expect any attraction or increase in goodwill. It will definitely only increase suspicion and create a gap between the two parties.

The so-called suspicion arises from being concealed, or thinking that one is being concealed. If one always feels that the other party is hiding something from oneself, it will naturally create a barrier in one's heart, and one begins to become distrustful...

In all senses, Xia Ran does not want to see such a development. It can be said that from just now to now, he has been carefully controlling this degree.

Now it seems that Yukinoshita has mastered the rhythm, but this was the result he wanted to see——

If Xia Ran controls the rhythm forcefully, he seems to be indifferent to the subtle psychology of the girl, and even has an impatient and indifferent attitude, showing "What does it have to do with you? Are you annoying?" If you feel it...

Guess what the outcome will be based on Yukinoshita's character?

The seriousness is definitely a geometric multiple of the current situation between Hikigaya Hachiman and Yuigahama Yui. It is almost irreversible - she will put away all curiosity and attention, and never interact with Xia Ran again. If there is any intersection, I will not pay attention to anything about him.

Xia Ran would not let that kind of stupid thing happen. Just the problems of Hikigaya Hachiman and Yuigahama Yui already made him feel very troublesome. If something like this happens to me... is this some kind of youth drama?

In other words, what seems to be Yukinoshita's rhythm now is actually his leading rhythm. Even the behavior and attitude reflected in this are for this point, to eliminate the uneasiness that she may not even be aware of. and exclusion.

And it is very effective. During such a process, the girl who is constantly thinking and asking the question seems not to have noticed at all. She has unknowingly taken on a certain role——

She has not considered at all what identity, what relationship, and what reasons she has to do such a thing...

"Saber?" Yukinoshita was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously looked at the exotic girl next to her, "Is this title also..."

"Oh, that's the name I usually use for her. Servants are generally divided by ranks. It can be said to be a framework that expresses some of the unique abilities possessed by legendary heroes in the most suitable aspect. …”

Xia Ran spread her hands and said.

"Although strictly speaking, Artoria, as the true form of a heroic spirit, does not need a class framework to specialize her abilities, but she is indeed the most suitable for Saber's class, and she was summoned to the modern age with the help of this framework, so I Usually this rank is used to refer to her."

"What's the point of this?" Yukinoshita felt that this didn't seem good, and it seemed that the meaning of a tool man was even stronger.

"Of course it makes sense. Since Servants need to hide their true identities, they generally do not reveal their real names. Therefore, when calling them, they often do not call them by their first names. Instead, they use their rank names instead, which avoids the need for intelligence. The leakage will affect the outcome of the battle."

Xia Ranyan explained it conclusively. This is really a very legitimate reason, although it seems that in the previous Holy Grail Wars, this recognized strategy often has no sense of existence.

Those who are particularly famous are easily recognized directly, while those who are unrecognizable often have little fame, so there is often nothing worth paying attention to. The strength of the trump card is not much, and as for the weakness... others can win steadily without targeting the weakness. .

Or it may simply be that it is very famous, but the actual settings are simply not up to par with the legend. If you want to determine the opponent's information based on the legend, you will be shocked to find that the legend is not trustworthy at all.

"..."

"..."

Yukinoshita frowned slightly and said nothing. She just put her hand on her chin, as if she was thinking about something seriously.

"Because heroic spirits like Artoria used to be heroic heroes whose names were left in history or legends. Once their true names are exposed, their trump cards will be immediately known..."

Seeing this, Xia Ran thought that she didn't understand the problem she was talking about, so she directly used the principle of borrowing and gave an example -

"This is not the worst. It is possible that even the weaknesses are exposed. Think about what would happen if Achilles exposed his true identity?"

"Will you directly know that his weakness is his heels?" the girl replied calmly, as if she was not very interested in it, "I know what you are talking about, I am just thinking about what you are talking about about fighting. "

"..."

"..."

"Ahaha... Speaking of which, the weather today is really nice." Xia Ran blinked and suddenly turned to look out the window.

It's almost noon, the midsummer sunshine is just right, and the sky is clear.

Yukinoshita glared at him displeasedly, but then sighed silently, but did not pursue the question any further. She actually doesn't understand things like familiars and heroic spirits. This is no longer a problem that can be solved by covering a wide range of topics. It is simply an area that ordinary people have no access to.

The "ordinary people" mentioned here are not ordinary people distinguished by factors such as origin, background, connections, financial status, etc., but refer to ordinary human beings.

However, she still has the basic ability to associate. As a familiar-like existence, a Servant should undoubtedly function as a combat weapon, and it is also the kind of person who is extremely intelligent, self-aware and wise. A living weapon.

As for weapons, it is of course impossible for them to be made without reason and purely for fun. It's like a certain tool exists because people need the convenience they bring to certain things or aspects of work.

In other words, the person in front of her is probably about to face, or has already faced some kind of danger that she doesn't know about...

Although he said it in an understatement, no matter how much he thought about it, he knew that it was definitely not a little kid's play, just as long as it lasted. To put it bluntly, it probably smells like cruel blood...

Therefore, Yukinoshita originally had a lot to say, but in the end she didn't say it. When she realized this, she surprisingly didn't feel any repulsion or disgust, and then she subconsciously acted to distance herself from the other party——

Because she didn’t know what the mysterious world was like and how sinister and treacherous it was, she didn’t feel that the seemingly easy-to-talk ancient gods, big monsters, and living Kamikazes she accidentally bumped into at Moriya Shrine, It can represent the entire non-common sense field.

Her rational judgment was that it was just the tip of the iceberg. The world Xia Ran faced was completely different from the world she imagined. She had no way to rely on her own imagination to accuse Xia Ran, who had faced the real world in person. Ran's approach.

Yukinoshita wisely only looked at the side that she could see, and only judged Xia Ran who she was familiar with.

Therefore, now she suddenly felt a little discouraged. No matter how many questions she asked, it would have no effect. Even if the other party answered all questions and was very frank, there were still many things that she did not understand at all.

Of course, it's okay to continue asking questions about things she doesn't understand, but it will only bring up a series of points that she doesn't understand even more... So suddenly she feels that what she is doing has no meaning, and she and the other party have no sense at all. He is not a person of the same world.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Xia Ran took the teapot next to him with a smile and poured the minister a cup of warm tea. "Here, please drink tea. I brewed this myself, and the temperature is just right. This kind of weather is not suitable for drinking too hot drinks..."

"..." Yukinoshita stared at his face for a long time, then seemed to have given up on something, and held her forehead with a headache, "Why can you act like nothing is wrong!"

"Because I really have nothing to do. Of course I am a fine person now..."

Xia Ran laughed heartily and pushed the cup in front of the girl——

"For me, this is the most peaceful place, without so many worries."
