"Hey, what's going on? So many people are here."
Hearing the teasing voice and seeing the not-so-tall figure, Yahad's shoulders and thighs began to ache again.
The physical injuries have been basically healed, but the wounds in the heart are still bleeding.
At that moment, Yahad once again recalled the horror of Matou Shinji.
It was this young man who destroyed the villa's barrier with two strikes and easily subdued the battle maid that Einzbern had spent ten years creating. In the end, he defeated all of Hercules' trials without any injuries in less than a minute. If Hercules hadn't been holding on to use "Battle Continuation" to delay time, he would have had no chance of escaping.
Is this still a Master? Is this still a human? This is simply a monster!
However, although he recalled the horror of Shinji, Yahad did not run away like before, but handed the metal box in his hand to Yustisa, stood in front of Shinji, and shouted:
"Lady Yustisa, run away. This man is dangerous. I will buy you some time."
"..." Yustisa.
"..." Emiya Kiritsugu.
"..." Hisau Maiya.
"..." Shinji Matou felt no emotion at all, and even felt like laughing.
What is going on
Okay, I admit that you, old man, have been brave and heroic for once, but the problem is that you don't understand the situation at all, okay
After trying hard to suppress his laughter, Shinji tried to put on a straight face and said to Yustisa in a serious tone: "Well, he told you to run, why are you still standing there? Run."
"Why should I run?" Yustisa held the box, looking confused.
"Maybe he thinks I will hurt you." Shinji explained seriously.
"Then there's no point in me running, because you'll be able to find me wherever I go, and you won't hurt me."
Yustisa's serious look made Shinji both moved and helpless.
"Hey, come on. It's rare that Yahad shows some heroism, can't you just cooperate with him?"
"How should I cooperate? Should I run away now? Or wait for you at home?"
"Hahaha..." Shinji finally couldn't help it and laughed until his stomach hurt - why is my girlfriend so cute.
Emiya Kiritsugu beside him couldn't help laughing. As expected of Irisviel's ancestor and model, he was just as innocent as ever.
At this point, no matter how slow or dull Ahad was, he realized that something was wrong. He looked at Shinji who was holding his stomach in front of him, and then at Yustisa who was holding her motionless behind him.
"You, you guys..."
"Yes, it's us." Shinji walked around Ahad, put his left arm on Kiritsugu's shoulder, and put his right arm around Yustisa's waist, "My friend, my girlfriend - by the way, why are you here? Yustisa, you're still using your spirit..."
"Actually..."
The reason was not complicated. Although Irisviel was finally persuaded by Natalia and agreed to let Kiritsugu leave home, she was still worried.
Hercules is so powerful, and Kiritsugu doesn't have a Servant of his own. If something happens...
When people are anxious, they will instinctively seek help from those close to them. Who is the person closest to Irisviel? In addition to her husband, daughter, and Maiya, the only one left is Yustisa, who is both her sister and ancestor.
The two of them were already in a large barrier and not far away from each other, so it was convenient for them to communicate.
After hearing what Irisviel said, Yustisa couldn't sit still anymore.
She was not worried about Kiritsugu. Kiritsugu was driving the Matou family's car, so it would be easy to check. She just needed Medea to keep an eye on him.
She was not worried about Shinji. Among Shinji's overall plans, the project against Einzbern was the most detailed, and last night's battle proved that these preparations were not in vain.
She was actually worried about the Einzbern family. Shinji was fine, he said he would show mercy, but Kiritsugu might not be the same - when the safety of his wife and daughter was seriously threatened, it was not impossible for him to go on a killing spree. This was exactly what Yustisa didn't want to see.
Justisa was born around 900 AD, and spent 900 of those years in Einzbern. Although she lived in the same day over and over again, she still developed feelings for this closed castle and this closed family.
Especially in the past ten years, under the influence of the entire Matou family, her emotions have become more and more rich, and certain feelings towards the Einzbern family have become stronger and stronger.
She wanted to free Einzbern from their mission and truly liberate them.
One of the reasons for being determined to purify the Holy Grail is to end the Einzbern's sad wish in this way, and thus serve as a catalyst for liberation.
By that time, she will truly return to the family and negotiate with the central program Golem Jubstacheit, allowing each android to choose his or her own way of life according to his or her own will.
The first prerequisite for making a choice is to be alive. If you die, everything is gone.
So, Yustisa hurriedly left the Great Hole, returned home first, got help from Medea, and then hurried to the outskirts, finally saving Ahad before Kiritsugu could kill him.
There is no need to explain Kiritsugu's part, Yustisa has already explained most of it, and Shinji can guess the rest without any explanation.
In general, it was a reasonable answer, but it also exposed a problem—the communication was not timely enough. If any of Kiritsugu, Yustisa, and Medea had greeted Shinji, this situation would not have happened.
Although I had prepared three different lines in advance, namely mobile phone, satellite phone and communication method, I did not deliberately emphasize the timeliness and importance of communication, which led to everyone having different ideas. Fortunately, no major mistakes occurred.
"I understand how you feel, but please tell me before you act next time so that I can be prepared. Please also believe in my ability. I will never be polite to you when I need your help. My silence proves that I can do it. Just like this time, my master and I killed Hercules and captured all the battle maids. Although this old guy ran away in the chaos, my master has already placed a tracking rune on him, and he will not be able to run far before I catch him. At that time, I will definitely bring them back and let you deal with them."
Having said that, Yustisa and Kiritsugu would not insist on being stubborn and confront Shinji. They are not tsundere like Rin, so they all said.
"I understand. I won't do that again next time."
"I will definitely contact you if there is anything in the future."
After seeing this, Yahad finally accepted the reality: "You, you guys are really... Did the last Holy Grail War also..."
"I know you have a lot to ask, and I have a lot to say to you and the children you brought with you. But this is not the place to talk. Come with me, and I will let you know that Jubstacheit, you, and the me in the past were all wrong."
At the end, Yustisa sighed sadly.
Seeing this, Shinji tightened his grip on his waist, as if to say - it's okay, I'm here and I'll always be with you.
There is a kind of love that starts from the invisible and nourishes silently.
There is a kind of love that may not be so colorful at the beginning, but will gradually deepen with the passage of time.
There is a kind of love that is not earth-shattering, but equally warms the heart.
There is a kind of love called companionship.
He will accompany her, and she will accompany him, supporting each other and going on.
