When the existence of the enemy heroic spirit army was confirmed, Rin could not recover from her shock for a full three minutes.
This was too absurd. It was completely sensational and absurd! Heroic spirit army? Hundreds and thousands of heroic spirit army? How could this be possible?
The appearance of seven heroic spirits in the Holy Grail War was already a miracle that could only happen after someone exploited a loophole in the world. It was the highest mystery that humans could come into contact with and control. Just these seven heroic spirits were enough to trigger a confrontation that could be called a "war." This showed how powerful the heroic spirits were, and how much impact they could have on the real world.
What about five thousand heroic spirits?
It would no longer be a Holy Grail War that Fuyuki City could bear. It would be a disaster that could topple an entire country. Even if all of humanity's mystical powers were used, they still wouldn't be able to stop it. For the powerful heroic spirits, human weapons and equipment were useless. Even heavy tanks couldn't defeat a Saber wielding a holy sword. If such a powerful heroic spirit participated in the Holy Grail War …
"This is so unfair … How could this happen …"
Rin sat on the sofa in the living room, muttering to herself.
"Impossible, I have worked so hard, but I can't even compare … Alien uncle, you are not lying to me, right?"
I shrugged again and pointed at Wei Gong next to me. "At least this silly boy won't lie, and Saber won't lie."
It was a fact. Although she had always wanted to deny it, Rin Haruban knew that it was an undeniable fact. The last survivor of Einz Behren was now living in her home. Even the powerful demigod hero Hercules could not stop the destruction that befell them in an instant. The deep-rooted Einz Behren, which had countless excellent magicians, was wiped out in one day. What could she do?
"Hey, don't tell me you've lost your fighting spirit?"
Looking at Motosa's confused expression, I knew that this girl who had shouldered the burden of the entire family was at her limit. She had already done quite well to be able to last until today, but the moment I opened my mouth, yep, I teased her out of habit.
"No!" Contrary to what I expected, Rin immediately retorted loudly. "I am just a little nervous because I suddenly found out how powerful the enemy is! It's too early to say that you are giving up! "
"Ah?" This time, it wasn't just me. Even Sandora showed a look of surprise and contemplation. Red A, who had been standing behind Rin as the background and the automatic teapot, did not look surprised at all. It was as if he had already expected such an answer from Rin. "No matter how you think about it, it is impossible to summon an army of thousands of heroic spirits with the power of humans.
"No matter how you think about it, it's impossible to summon an army of thousands of Heroic Spirits with the power of humans." Yuan Ban placed his index finger between his eyebrows, a thoughtful expression on his face. "It's not just the limitation of magic power. More importantly, the world itself will not allow such a dangerous situation to occur. Using 'foreign objects' that shouldn't exist in reality to invade reality will create a very serious burden. Even if the Jian Tong family really managed to summon thousands of Heroic Spirits, it must be the result of opportunistic means. On the surface, they appear to be extremely powerful, but this kind of illegal behavior definitely has a weakness that is countless times more dangerous than it looks. As long as we can figure out which loophole they have exploited in the Holy Grail system, there is still hope for victory. More importantly, according to the information you brought, those mass-produced Heroic Spirits are not very powerful. They should only have one-fourth of a normal Heroic Spirit's combat power. Right now, including Berserker and Rider, who just arrived, we already have four powerful Heroic Spirits. This means that as long as we can avoid facing them head-on and use our superior military strength to attack the Jian Tong family, we can completely turn the tables!"
Listening to Rin's logical analysis and confident tone, a smile gradually appeared on my face. It seemed that I had underestimated this girl from the start. Since she was young, she had been able to shoulder the burden of the family all by herself. I really shouldn't have treated her as an ordinary girl.
But, why didn't this girl include us in her analysis?
"Ahaha … Because I feel that you are all uncontrollable factors." Rin laughed dryly. It was obvious that the reason wasn't something that outsiders should know. "More importantly, I feel that once you get involved, there will be a huge disaster …"
"How can you say that about the old … Cough cough, about Brother Chen!" Sakura immediately retorted without any hesitation. She almost accidentally called out the word "boss." "And, if I really have to say this, Rider and I aren't at the same level as Senpai Motosa-senpai. We're currently working for Brother Chen!"
"Sakura …" Rin looked at the serious purple-haired girl in front of her. She wanted to say something, but stopped herself. To be honest, when we suddenly brought Rin back, she had almost shouted out in shock. After Wei Gong evasively described how Sakura and Rider "worked together" to defeat Shinji Jikiri, she revealed an even more complex expression of disbelief. I could clearly see that Rin had an incredibly unnatural expression when she and Sakura looked at each other. They were originally sisters, and they were once the most intimate of people. Yet, now they were in such an awkward situation just sitting face to face. I couldn't help but sigh at how fate played tricks on me.
If the head of the Rin family hadn't given his daughter to the Jikiri family as a bargaining chip, Sakura definitely wouldn't have had to go through all that darkness. The two of them would definitely have had happier times together. Unfortunately, the past couldn't be undone. Still, if everything could be changed from now on, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
Rin looked at Sakura awkwardly for a long while before replying sheepishly, "Aha, I'm working."
"In order to pay for the medical fees." Rin didn't seem to notice that Sakura had a sincere smile on her face that she hadn't seen in a long time. In fact, she didn't even notice the relaxed and teasing tone in Sakura's voice. However, that didn't affect a certain Crystal Virgin from accusing her boss. "Aliens are very stingy."
Stingy my ass! As one of the components of the Departed Garden, don't you think that you should work hard?
Rin looked at the girl in front of her in astonishment. The relaxed and slightly mischievous expression on Sakura's face made her feel like she was hallucinating. She didn't know what Sakura had experienced to make her so cheerful all of a sudden, but since it was all related to us, she was too embarrassed to ask. But no matter what the reason was, at least the current Sakura suddenly made her feel as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders.
Well, to be honest, I was also quite curious as to how Sakura's personality changed so drastically. It probably wasn't only because of the magical power of Avalon, but also because of a certain Priestess who was Level 6 in Psychology?
"… You just have to live a happy life from now on. Leave all your troubles to us. Furthermore, if you don't like living in this world, we have countless worlds for you to choose from …" This wasn't a joke, but a sincere promise. This promise from Liliana was probably one of the reasons why Sakura was able to let go of the heavy burden in her heart.
"With such great power, it would be great if all of you could join us." Even though there was a troublesome main character like Miss Rin, there was still one serious person left who could think from the big picture. Ahoge King nodded and looked at us with a probing gaze. "After all, the number of enemies is rather large. With a few thousand Heroic Spirits, no matter how careful we are, we won't be able to completely avoid falling into the enemy's human wave tactics. Hence, I hope that we can make use of your great power to suppress the Heroic Spirit soldiers on a large scale so that we can break into the Jiantong headquarters."
"Actually, I have an even better plan."
Sandora put down the cup of black tea in her hand and smiled at everyone. "All of you find a sunny beach to spend a leisurely holiday. We will be in charge of playing whack-a-mole here."
"You underestimate the power of the Heroic Spirits," Rin immediately shook her head. "Even though all of you are very strong, five thousand Heroic Spirits is definitely a disaster, even for all of you."
Sandora merely narrowed her eyes and shook her head in silence. On the other hand, the corner of Sakura's mouth immediately twitched. She recalled how she had 'accidentally' seen the huge starship in Avalon and the few videos of the Battle of Kepru in the laboratory. She knew that the big shots in front of her were just there to watch a show. She felt that she had to mourn for the unfortunate Jiantong family.
Just as Rin and Wei Gong were seriously discussing how to overcome the huge numerical advantage of the Jiantong family's five thousand Heroic Spirits, Sandora and I were getting bored. Suddenly, a mental connection sounded in my head and made me energized. "Blockhead, Blockhead! Calling Blockhead urgently! "
"Snowy girl, what's wrong?" Even though Lin Xue was shocked at first, I immediately realized that if she had suddenly taken the initiative to call me, then she must have made a great discovery.
"I saw something. What do you think it is?"
"Your full attendance bonus for next month will be gone."
"… You're ruthless!" Lin Xue replied angrily. Then, she said proudly, "Tomorrow at 9: 30 pm, there will be a second mutation in Liudong Temple. I have already seen it. This mutation is not completely under Caster's control. Let's get ready one minute in advance. When the mutation starts, cut the entire Liudong Temple area out of the normal space. You will see good things. Also, I wish you a good night's sleep tonight, Blockhead!!"
How did I provoke this girl this time?
Lin Xue's last sentence left me scratching my head in confusion. However, the information she brought us was something we urgently needed. Since we didn't know the rules of this world's mutation, we could only passively let the Garden of the Departed World's aiming system continuously scan Willow Cave Temple. This was the stupidest method of defense. Also, if the mutation happened too quickly, this kind of surveillance would be meaningless. In comparison, Lin Xue's accurate prediction came just in time.
"Sleep, sleep!" I stood up and loudly announced that it was time to rest. "There will be an operation tomorrow morning. Let's call it a day. Ugh … What's with your expression, Rin?"
"Easy for you to say!" The missy suddenly exploded with a huge amount of resentment. Moreover, this resentment seemed to have been accumulating ever since we returned. It was only now that it was completely released. "Because there are not enough rooms for your sisters!"
Huh? Rooms?
I was stunned for a moment. Then, I took out my calculator and started adding.
Rin Enaka, Red A, Shiro Omiya, Artoria, Sandora, Pandora, Visca, Tears Sakura, Little Bubble, Vega, Ilya, Berserker, Sakura Jiantō, Rider, myself, and Jingle, who could be stuffed into any random corner, were excluded. In total, there was …
Alright, missy, it seems that I brought in too many tenants … But with such a large house, it shouldn't be a problem to suddenly have two more tenants, right? And speaking of my sisters, does this have anything to do with the lack of rooms?
As if he saw the confusion on my face, the corner of Enaka's mouth twitched. He suddenly pointed at the staircase on the second floor.
"Pandora and Visca. Why didn't you tell me beforehand that they would fight if they were together!?"
I immediately felt that things were going to get worse.
"After you left, Visca started to throw a tantrum. She was so restless as if it was the end of the world. Then, Pandora said something to her, and they started to fight!"
"This … How should I put it? It's normal. It's a common way for them to communicate."
I wiped my non-existent cold sweat. I could vaguely guess what happened.
"But it's fine if they were rolling on the ground, but those two strong girls smashed through three walls!"
Oh no, I forgot to remind those two girls that the Enaka residence wasn't their home. The walls here weren't reinforced with interstellar alloy.
"Anyway, you have to pay for all the repairs and compensation!" Enaka finally revealed her true colors as a little demon. "In order to punish them, the entire house has to be renovated!"
I knew it …
"Well, it seems that we don't have a place to stay today." Sakura touched her cheeks and said to Rider, "We can't go back to that 'home', right?"
"No way!" Enaka interrupted her biological sister's words subconsciously. However, she was tongue-tied when she saw the other party's gaze. "I … I mean … Why don't you … squeeze in with me tonight? It's all this alien uncle's fault, but anyway, we …"
Sakura's lips curled into a warm smile. She suddenly stood up and leaned forward. "Since we slept together in the past, sister, I'm going to sleep inside again!"
"Ah Jun," Sandora nudged my arm. "I suddenly feel that human emotions are so complicated. I feel defeated."
It's okay, I feel defeated too. Let the two of us enjoy the excitement of other people's lives forever in happiness …
It was late at night and it was probably close to two o 'clock in the morning. The Heroic Spirits and Masters who had been tossing and turning for most of the night were exhausted. After ending the discussion, they returned to their rooms to rest. Although the situation was grim, some people felt that today was a lucky day. To Wei Gong, Sakura had returned safely and seemed to be more cheerful than before. There was nothing that made him happier than this. To Enaka, something that she had imagined countless times but had never dared to hope for had happened today.
Sakura had returned and seemed to have broken off all relations with the Jian Tong family. To her, the greatest significance of all this was that she finally didn't have to stand on opposing sides with her sister. She didn't have to hurt the family member that she had once valued the most. Furthermore, Sakura, who had been like a stranger to her, had actually shown such a close attitude towards her today.
Everything else wasn't important at that moment.
In another room, two people were hugging and leaning against each other amidst the tense and ambiguous atmosphere.
"It's fine if I'm with Ah Jun." That was what Sandora had said to Enaka, who had been having a headache over the room allocation. To be honest, I hadn't thought too much about it at the start because it wasn't the first time that I had been in the same room with Sandora. But this time, the situation seemed to have changed.
Perhaps Enaka had done it on purpose. There were only me and Sandora in the room. There was no Little Bubble who had caused trouble, no otaku who had forcefully entered under the guise of the child's mother, no Pandora or Visca who had snuck in. This was the first time that such a situation had occurred. There were only the two of us in the room.
The originally ambiguous atmosphere became ambiguous as the two of us suddenly fell silent and looked at each other.
"Ah Jun …" The golden-haired girl who had always been calm and decisive in front of me revealed a rare expression of bashfulness, but she still firmly nestled in my arms. "It seems to be the first time that we've been together like this."
I felt the soft body in my arms tremble slightly. I found it amusing to listen to the usually intelligent queen's incoherent words. I gently brushed away the blonde hair on her forehead. "Silly girl."
Everything was said without words. Then …
"Wah! Ah Jun! The lamp here is one size smaller than the one at home! Jingle isn't comfortable sleeping in there! Jingle wants Ah Jun to change the lampshade! "
The sudden shout was like a bolt of lightning from the sky. Sandora and I suddenly separated. After looking at each other awkwardly for two seconds, we turned our heads at the same time with unparalleled tacit understanding. We stared at the little thing who had just jumped out from the lamp. She was barefooted and looking up at us curiously.
"I forgot to clean up the scene in advance." At this moment, Sandora's decisiveness returned to her body. However, her face was a little redder than before. The little bean looked suspiciously at Owner Number Two who suddenly approached her with a dark expression. She let out a puzzled "Eh?"
Then, she was thrown out.
※ ※ ※
"Hey, Ah Jun, according to the human's words, from today onwards, I belong to you completely …"
The blush on the girl's face had yet to recede as she said mischievously.
"Tsk, you belonged to me before too!"
"Alright, alright, since we've known each other, until now, and every moment in the future, I belong to Ah Jun," Sandora suddenly said in a low voice as if she was reciting something. Then, she raised her head and her eyes were filled with gentleness and determination. "Then, since we've known each other, until now, and every moment in the future, you belong to me too. Our souls will fuse together and be as eternal as the void."
What he felt was the coolness of her naked skin and the astonishing softness. The infatuated girl did everything possible to get her body closer to her lover, and a pair of unbelievably pure big eyes were right in front of him.
Sandora's eyes were what made me sink into them the most. Just by looking at them at such a close distance, I would have the illusion that I would sink into them forever. There might be many things hidden in those deep eyes. The wisdom accumulated over time, the decisiveness of a leader, the majesty of a king. However, those things were never presented to me. To me, they were just a clear spring filled with the purest feelings of a girl. That was all.
"Of course, my silly girl."
How did things develop to this point? Now that I think about it, everything seemed to be so logical that it was inconceivable. Perhaps it was sudden, but if I thought about it carefully, everything happened naturally. It was something that should have happened a long time ago and there was no need to be surprised after it happened. It was completely different from what I expected. There was no chance — — If being coincidentally assigned to the same room was considered a chance, there was no precondition. We just returned to the room and naturally hugged and kissed each other as if it was the most normal thing between husband and wife. Only now did I realize that my feelings for Sandora had unknowingly reached such a level. When our feelings are so deep that we can no longer sense the distance between us, everything that happens has such an inconceivably natural feeling.
When we came back to our senses, everything happened naturally.
"Ah Jun, I really love you." Sandora moved her face closer to mine and left such gentle words by my ear. Then, she opened her mouth and bit my shoulder lightly. "Mark it. Don't let anyone snatch it from you in the future."
This was really Sandora's style of being 'silly and spoiled'.
"Oh, this time, I have completely won against Shallow Shallow." As we quietly hugged each other, the lingering feeling of passion had yet to fade. Sandora suddenly laughed foolishly and said softly. "Ah Jun, treat us well in the future."
I looked at the girl in front of me in astonishment. She actually took the initiative to mention another girl. This made me feel a little inconceivable. Of course, this also made me feel conflicted. That's right, Shallow Shallow had accepted Sandora's existence a long time ago. Naturally, she would have thought of everything that happened today. However, I really couldn't calm down — — If I could still calm down at this moment, I would probably be no different from a scumbag.
Perhaps the confusion in her eyes was too obvious, Sandora only lifted her head to look at me for a moment before bursting into laughter. "Ah Jun, you should feel lucky. I am a Schilling person … Ha, Ah Jun, do you believe it? In the past, I even discussed with Shallow Shallow about which one of us you would eat first, Ah Jun. "
"… Thank you." After staying silent for a long time, I once again hugged the girl in my arms tightly. "And … I'm sorry."
