Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime

At this time, Emiya Shirou also remembered that he did not see her presence last night.

What happened?

"What? When the senior sees the lonely girl, is he going to comfort her?"

BB's teasing words came from Emiya Shirou's ears.

"Not to this extent. Do I look like someone who would comfort strangers?"

Emiya Shirou immediately responded in the negative. Although it was good for people in junior high school to call him a good guy, he didn't help with everything, and he wouldn't lean over to a girl when he saw her lonely.

Rather, unless it was an acquaintance, such as Sakura, otherwise, even if he saw it, Emiya Shirou would choose to ignore it most of the time.

Of course you have to do your own thing!

Of course, if the reason for the other party's depressed expression is that he was bullied, that would be another matter. Emiya Shirou would not hesitate to take action.

It was just that the other party used that class card, that man's girl, which made Emiya Shirou look twice.

Chapter 961: Call me Muramasa

"That's it, brother?"

Under the light of the lights, Illya couldn't help but tilt her head as she looked at Shirou Emiya who suddenly appeared at the entrance of the park, her heart filled with doubts.

He probably went out after saying hello, and he wouldn't worry his brother enough to go out and look for him.

"No, Illya, that's not your brother. Have you forgotten that Ryuko and the others said they met the man who looked very similar to your brother on the road?"

The ruby ​​floated beside her, and she quickly realized that the [Shirou Emiya] in front of her was not Illya's brother.

"Hey! Is this the person Miyu ran out to find before?"

"Illya, your reaction is really slow, but you seem to be worried now, so it's understandable!"

The ruby ​​floating beside Illya nodded, seeming to have found a reason for Illya's unresponsive behavior.

While they were communicating, Emiya Shirou walked forward on his own.

It should be said that he was just like the people passing by. He just glanced at it out of interest, stayed for a while, and then left quickly.

He and the silver-haired girl in front of him were just strangers who met by chance.

"Follow me, Illya!"

When she saw Emiya Shirou walking away, Ruby immediately spoke to Illya who looked very downcast.

"Eh! Eh? Why!?"

"Illya, aren't you interested in this person who suddenly appears in Fuyuki City and looks exactly like your brother?"

"Yes, there is! It's just that now——"

Illya's tone was very low. If it were said in the past, she would naturally follow Emiya Shirou without hesitation, without even needing ruby's guidance.

But now, all she could think about was what Miyu had said to her before, and she had no reason to fight at all.

Even though he had left such a dangerous thing, he felt extremely disappointed for some reason.

"If you don't follow me, the other party will leave! Illya! Please satisfy my curiosity!"

He quietly touched the ruby ​​​​that flew to the entrance of the park, looked at Shirou Emiya who was already walking away, and spoke anxiously to Illya behind him.

"I know, I know, just follow me! It's just that it always feels like we are stalkers!"

Even if she gives up looking for class cards for Sister Rin, Miyu and the others, Ruby is still willing to stay with her. What reason does she have to refuse?

Saying this, Illya jumped down from the wooden chair and came to the entrance of the park.

"Go! Go! Go! Go!"

It was clear that the other person looked very similar to Illya's brother, but it was Ruby who was excited!

However, Illya still caught up with Ruby and followed behind Shirou Emiya secretly.

"Don't let the other party find out! Stalking is not a good thing!"

Seeing Ruby speeding down the street as if no one was around at the moment Emiya Shirou turned the corner, Illya couldn't help but remind her.

What an embarrassment it would be if they were discovered!

"Crack-!"

The sound of something being caught echoed in the deserted street.

Before Illya reached the corner, a very oppressive figure appeared from the shadows, still holding the struggling ruby ​​in his hand.

"Illya, save me!!!"

"Since you know that stalking others is not a good thing, why do you still do it?"

As he finished speaking, Emiya Shirou grabbed Ruby, who was twisting and trying to break free, and looked at the trembling Illya in front of him.

"sorry!!!!!"

Illya apologized loudly, after all, it was them who were at fault in the first place.

"Tell me, what are you two planning to do by following me secretly like this?"

Emiya Shirou let go of the ruby ​​that was still struggling in his hand and stared straight at Illya.

"Eh? You're not surprised to see me. Are you a magician?"

Ruby, who finally broke free from the restraints, flew back to Illya and looked at Shirou Emiya in surprise.

After all, logically speaking, she can be regarded as a decoration, a dead thing, a dead thing acts like a living thing, and can even talk. Normal people would be surprised when they see it for the first time.

Emiya Shirou said that his demon-haunted prototype was still alive even after being made into armor, which was nothing to surprise Emiya Shirou.

"Yes, there should be no problem. Fuyuki City does not prohibit other magicians from entering."

"That's the truth, but I really didn't think of it."

Shirou Emiya was not shocked that Ruby could speak, but Ruby was surprised that Shirou Emiya was a magician.

"So can you answer the question of why you are following me?"

Emiya Shirou couldn't think of any reason for the other party to follow him. Did he find out that he was the one wearing that armor?

But this is impossible. His aura is basically covered by the armor, leaving only a beast-like aura. What's more, he has only met the silver-haired girl in front of him once. Does the other party have He Zhen? A revelation as terrifying as hers?

When Shirou Emiya was brainstorming, Illya said something embarrassed.

"I, I just thought you looked like my brother, so I followed you."

This was indeed the reason why she followed.

"elder brother?"

Emiya Shirou stood there and pondered for a while, and seemed to understand something.

"Are you Emiya's sister?"

It always felt strange to call other people his name directly. In fact, it was very strange, but there was no way in this world for him to use the name Emiya Shirou.

At least it can't be used now.

"Well, brother, do you know my brother?"

Seeing Shirou Emiya's expression of sudden realization, Illya was also a little confused. Does he know her brother? Why have I never heard my brother mention it?

"No, it's just that in the past few days, the neighbors have said that I look too much like him, so I have a deep impression on him."

"Senior, you lie more now than before -" BB complained aloud in the channel, recalling that in the past, lying was the worst thing Emiya Shirou was good at.

Now it's really coming out of my mouth.

"Sometimes there is no way around it."

Emiya Shirou replied softly to BB. He didn't want to lie, but he couldn't directly tell the other person that he was Emiya Shirou from the parallel world.

"Then what should I call you?" Ruby also said. If it is the magician of the clock tower, it still knows a few. Even if it is just a student like Tohsaka Rin, as long as he knows the subject, he can still do it. Let Tosaka check it out, although Ruby thinks that the other party is not the magician of the clock tower.

"My name is Chiko Muramasa, just call me Muramasa——"

The real name cannot be used, so we can only continue the tradition and use a pseudonym.

Chapter 962 It’s just a coincidence

"Oh! Senko Muramasa, isn't that the swordsmith from Kuwana in Ise Province during the Edo period? You're not using a fake name to fool us, are you?"

Illya didn't know, but Ruby still knew a lot. After all, it was originally intended to assist Rin Tohsaka in recovering the class cards, and class cards represented heroic spirits in history.

Therefore, Ruby still has a lot of knowledge about history. If she can know the real name of the opponent's servant, she can make better countermeasures.

There are many servants who cannot escape the shackles of legends. For example, those who possess the terrifying power of the number of saints and triple the terrifying inherent skills are bound by legends.

"Would you give your real name to a magician of unknown origin?"

Emiya Shirou had nothing to refute. Senko Muramasa was the one who borrowed someone else's name.

“What about trust between people?”

"You keep silent and follow me secretly, and you still have the nerve to talk about trust between people."

Emiya Shirou complained aloud. In this situation, it would not have much impact whether he said his name or not. There were many reasons anyway.

"Well! You know, everything happens for a reason."

With that said, Ruby turned her head and looked at Illya.

But Illya seemed to have no reaction, still lowering her head, with loneliness written on her face.

After all, her whole mind is now focused on Miyu, and she can't hold anything else in her head.

"Take care of your own affairs first, your worries are written all over your face."

Seeing Illya's expression that expressed her thoughts directly on her face, Emiya Shirou couldn't say much.

"Hey! I'm sorry!!"

"There's no need to apologize."

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. It's already very late now. By the time I finish processing the ingredients in my hands, dinner will become a midnight snack."

Emiya Shirou picked up the ingredients in his hands and reminded the other person aloud that he indeed had something to do now. If he continued to struggle, it would be too late for dinner.

only--

"Tick tock!"

"Tick tock!!"

"Tick tock!!!"

Drop after drop of water fell from the sky, and the air was filled with a moist smell at this moment, and rain began to fall from the sky.

If it weren't for Illya and Ruby's tracking, Emiya Shirou would have been able to return to Emiya's house before the rain fell.

If Shirou Emiya hadn't passed by here, Illya and Ruby probably wouldn't have spent so much time tracking them. They would have returned home long ago, and they might have already taken a bath.

"Where is your home?"

Feeling the sudden wetness, Emiya Shirou immediately asked Illya who was still in a daze in front of him.

"My home is over there, maybe a little far away——"

Everyone is in a residential area, and it's not far if you want to say it's far. It's just that I've been sneaking behind Shirou Emiya, and the distance from my home has become farther.

"Really? My home is not far from here, why don't you follow me over there to take shelter from the rain?"

Feeling the raindrops that are getting bigger and bigger, Shirou Emiya still asked the other party's opinion first. If it's not necessary, Shirou Emiya won't force it.

After all, if you want to say it, the other party has a way to ignore the rain and go home directly.

That is, use the magic gift of ruby ​​to directly transform into the magical girl he saw before and fly back directly.

The A-level magic barrier can obviously block the raindrops.

There is no need for Shirou Emiya to worry at all.

On the one hand, Shirou Emiya spoke like this because of habit, and on the other hand, he should not know the function of ruby ​​as a magic gift.

Of course, Shirou Emiya didn't think so much, he just asked Illya out of habit.
