Heroic Spirit: I, Shinji, have tried my best.

The next day, Shinji and Waver went to class as usual, but Waver was always evasive when he met Kenneth. After all, he had just hacked the relic that Kenneth had worked so hard to prepare yesterday, and he was planning to run away tonight...

Kenneth didn't notice or suspect anything. He had so many students and he couldn't always focus all his energy on this problem teenager. He had a lot of other things to do.

Kenneth was at the peak of his life during this period. Not only did he become one of the twelve monarchs at a young age, he also had a beloved fiancée.

As long as he wins the Holy Grail War and improves his magic ability and reputation, even the Clock Tower will be under his control in the future...

If nothing unexpected happens, it will be like this...

In the evening, Weber asked for leave from school. Kenneth knew about it, but he didn't care. At that time, he didn't realize the seriousness of the matter.

As for Shinji... he was an illegal immigrant and could just leave whenever he wanted without asking for leave.

Just as the two were leisurely planning their next trip, a girl hurried over. When she saw Shinji, she was stunned for a moment, but then she quickly came to her senses.

"Eh?"

Waver looked at the pink envelope the girl handed to him with a look of surprise... He had seen this thing before, but it was always for Shinji, but today it was his turn!

I took the envelope blankly, and didn't react for a while...

This girl was the one Shinji met last night. She said her name was Camus. She handed Weber a letter and asked him to remember to open it in the evening, then left in a hurry.

After a while, Waver suddenly reacted, looked at Shinji's strange eyes, and pretended not to care and put the envelope between the books he was reading.

"Why don't you open it secretly and take a look?"

"What's so interesting? Maybe he's here as a prank or because he lost a bet. Besides, we have more important things to do right now... Where were we just talking about..."

Seeing Waver's disappointing look, Shinji shook his head without commenting.

At night, the two boarded a plane and left. They would probably arrive in Fuyuki City tomorrow morning, and by then they would become enemies.

Weber was like a little child, holding the box of holy relics in his hands with excitement, feeling as happy as a bird that had been freed from its shackles!

Shinji leaned against the window, propped up his head with one hand, and said to Waver at an inappropriate time:

"Are you leaving just like that?"

This inexplicable tone made Waver feel strange. What else could he do if he didn't leave? Should he stay here and wait to be discovered by Teacher Kenneth?

“…Where’s your letter?”

"…Um, it seems to have fallen into that book…"

"It's okay. The Holy Grail War won't last too long anyway. I can just go back and watch it later."

"Heh~, I heard a few days ago that some people were planning to take action against a girl named Camus..."

"…It's not that exaggerated. After all, we are still in the academy. They don't dare…"

"...It seems that you still don't understand the nature of a magician... In a place where descendants of various families gather, a little girl with no background but some talent may not necessarily have a good ending."

"What's the meaning…"

"School bullying will never stop. Rather than the incident itself, the administrators will pay more attention to its impact and consequences... In other words, even if she was killed by a few children from a family with some history, the Clock Tower will not offend those families that can bring benefits for a small family with no capital and a corpse..."

"…This is the nature of magi. The strong prey on the weak, and being weak is the original sin."

In London, as if reflecting what Shinji said, Camus was running between deserted cliffs, with several boys behind her constantly approaching her.

Suddenly, a stone tripped her and she fell to the ground. A boy rushed forward and grabbed her hair, then punched her...

"How dare you run away, you damned woman? If you had handed over the Magic Seal honestly, we might have let you go. Now you bastard, just wait for death!"

With a "bang"... the girl's delicate body hit the stone wall heavily, and the pain made her almost cry.

Her brain reminded her to use magic quickly, but her body kept telling her to run... After all, a magician with sufficient theoretical knowledge but no practical experience is not necessarily better than an ordinary person.

I endured the pain and continued to run forward, comforting myself that the exit was just ahead, and everything would be fine once I got there...

However, fate played a joke on her. What was ahead was...

Dead end...

…It’s been a while since the plane took off.

Waver tilted his head to one side, finding it difficult to accept Shinji's words.

"Maybe he's just talking, he won't really do it. Besides, it doesn't have much to do with me..."

"…You think I would bring this up for no reason?"

Shinji casually pulled out an envelope and threw it directly at Waver's face. Waver took it down and saw that it was the one he had left behind... He was silent for a moment and then opened it...

Inside was a simple piece of paper and a few photos. The paper said that Camus had been secretly following Weber and had always admired his courage and unique insights.

And at the end, she implicitly expressed the girl's feelings. As for those photos... they were all taken secretly, and Shinji had just seen one of them...

"What do you think?"

Waver stood up without saying anything, and without saying anything, he pulled Shinji away.

"What are you doing?"

"Let's go back... and turn around! We should still have time!"

"Come on, we are on a plane now..."

"So what!"

Weber was really anxious now. It felt like his new girlfriend was being bullied. At the same time, he felt a little guilty. If something happened to her...

Turning his head and looking at the motionless Shinji, Weber felt a little angry, but suddenly, seeing Shinji with an auntie smile on his face, without any worried look, his mind suddenly brightened.

"I said... you haven't solved it yet?"

"Of course, otherwise why would I rely on a fool like you?"

"Um... Actually, I was just joking... By the way, do you have her contact information?"

"What do you want to do?"

"Nothing, I just hope you can help me... apologize to her..."

"Tsk...go by yourself."

……

"Hey! Who are you?"

Camus was already feeling desperate, when suddenly a masked man in a black robe came up to him, stunning everyone present.

The masked man seemed not to hear what the perpetrators said and disappeared in a flash.

Camus was stunned for a moment, then heard the sound of something heavy hitting the ground nearby, and then looked over to see that the people chasing her had all fallen to the ground...

"You...are you?"

Shinji took off his mask and looked calmly at the girl who was stunned again.

"You have good talents, but maybe you are not suitable for this place."

"Eh?"

"I've already dealt with these guys. Just pretend you don't know... Also, that guy Weber said he'll apologize to you when he comes back."

After saying that, it turned into white smoke and disappeared with a "bang", leaving the girl alone in the wind...

Looking at his classmate lying on the ground, unknown whether he was dead or alive, Camus looked around, and after making sure that no one saw him, he quickly ran back the same way he came.
