After the battle, Irisviel and Saber did not go back directly to the Einzbern Annex. Instead, they came to a hotel. Illya followed them because she actually didn't know the Einzbern Annex at all.

The location was just a perfunctory remark to Irisviel and Saber. However, what Illya didn't know was that what was waiting for her in the hotel would give her a headache.

In the parking lot of the hotel, Illya was honestly answering Irisviel's various questions. Saber was also solemnly educating Illya on her responsibilities as a servant.

Illya felt helpless about this, because she knew that the final result of the battle on Dongmu Bridge would end hastily, and she did not want to participate in that boring melee. The actions taken by Illya caused Alice to

Phil's doubts and Saber's blame. She could only put in the effort to explain it, and it had to be an explanation that the other party could understand and accept. After all, it was impossible for her to say to Irisviel and Saber, "Everything that happened to you is...

It was written in a book, so I know that even if I don't help, you will be fine." This kind of line.

So Illya could only explain the matter as that she rushed over immediately after feeling Irisviel's call. After detecting the surrounding situation at that time, she chose to lurk near the battlefield and wait for opportunistic actions, and later even

I found Emiya Kiritsugu, so I stayed with him, ready to provide support at any time. This was not ignoring my due responsibilities as a Servant.

After finally getting Irisviel and Saber to understand and accept her words, Illya sighed tiredly, and a strange feeling came to her heart.

‘I actually feel tired? I have the energy of five thousand people’s souls! How can I still feel tired? Women… are really terrifying existences…’

Illya sighed after taking a look at Irisviel and Saber, who were still full of energy even though they had gone through a difficult battle in which the situation was somewhat unfavorable, and they had spent a long time "educating" her.

The mental strength of a woman, of course she has forgotten that she is also a "female" now. Fortunately, she has broken the spiritual link with origin-logic before this, otherwise origin-logic

(The Root of Reason) That honest complaint will definitely make her depressed again.

Mercedes Benz 300SL, this is the vehicle Ilia is riding.

Further west in the deep mountainous area of ​​Fuyuki City, on the long national highway, this classic car with a powerful six-cylinder engine is now transformed into a silver beast, racing wildly on the road at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour.

However, the person holding the steering wheel is as slender as a noble daughter.

"Oh my god! I wasn't so desperate when I was playing Need for Speed! Master! Can you slow down a little bit? This can cost lives!"

Hearing such a sigh, you should have understood that the hands holding the steering wheel were not Ilia's. At this time, her hands were tightly grasping the seat belt in the car.

There were three people in the car, Ilia was sitting alone in the back, and Saber was sitting in the passenger seat with a nervous look on her face.

Yes! That’s right! This crazy driver is Irisviel who drove on the road for the first time.

At Illya's reminder, Irisviel just smiled lightly.

"Don't worry! Don't worry! I've been specially trained! How about it? It's very fast!"

"..."

However, seeing Irisviel's unfamiliar gear-shifting technique, Illya could only twitch the corners of her mouth speechlessly.

"It's... it's really unexpected... that the... driver is very skilled..."

In response, Saber just managed a smile and nodded.

"Of all the toys that Kiritsugu brought to Einzbern, this one is my favorite. I've always just walked around in the castle courtyard, but this is the first time I've driven in such a vast place like this.

.a!"

Ignoring Saber's somewhat far-fetched attitude, Irisviel looked very excited.

"A toy..."

For some reason, Illya thought of the toy cars she used to play with when she was a child that could be grasped with one hand.

In Illya's imagination, Irisviel suddenly appeared, and took the toy car, put the dolls of Saber and Illya on the car seat, and walked happily on the ground. Then accidentally, the toy car

He slipped out of Irisviel's hand and quickly slid out. He hit a wall and fell apart. The doll was thrown away at the same time and turned into stars in the sky. After that, Team Rocket's

Classic lines are shouted from the mouth of the puppet.

"...What a disgusting feeling!..."

Thinking of this, Ilia's body began to tremble, and she buried her head into the cushion, desperately trying to forget this somewhat terrifying imagination.

"Well, wait a minute Irisviel. You were never driving on the left just now!" (Japan's traffic rules are different from China's, you all drive on the left)

But Saber had to speak and she realized that this was a nightmare from which she could not wake up.

"Ah, yes."

Irisviel nodded casually as if she had just made a very small mistake, then turned the steering wheel and changed the driving route back. Of course, this action made Illya frightened.

"...The Einzbern annex is nearby, haven't you arrived yet?"

Saber's words revealed Illya's inner thoughts. She no longer wanted to stay in this steel coffin that could cause a car accident at any time.

"It is said that it is only an hour's drive away. If you get there, you should be able to see it."

For Saber, she also wants to end this dangerous journey as soon as possible.

Fortunately, there were no vehicles coming from the opposite direction on the national highway late at night. However, the national highway is very curved and is still very dangerous for high-speed vehicles.

"...It would be great if we hired a driver specifically."

"That's not possible. It's not that hiring a driver is pointless, but it's too dangerous. After all, once you enter Fuyuki City, you may be attacked by other masters at any time, and it's saber to involve innocent people.

It’s something you don’t want to see.”

"That's true..."

Listening to the conversation between Irisviel and Saber, Illya felt that compared to being attacked by other Masters on this mountain road, Irisviel's driving skills were definitely more dangerous!

Suddenly, a murderous aura struck through the air, and was sensed by Illya and Saber at the same time.

"parking!"

"Why?"

Irisviel, who was suddenly bewildered by Saber's warning, asked blankly.

Saber didn't bother to explain to her, she leaned over to the driver's seat and grabbed the steering wheel with one hand, then stretched out her left foot and pressed the brake to the bottom.

While Saber made an emergency stop, Illya immediately activated Irisviel's magic protection.

Fortunately, the car was traveling in a straight line between sudden stops and the car did not spin violently.

Mercedes' tires slid on the asphalt road, emitting a burst of white smoke. In the car sliding due to inertia, Saber and Illya once again confirmed the source of the smell they just felt.

Yes, this must be the aura of a servant. If you really say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be there.

"Appearing here...could it be..."

At this time, Illya seemed to have thought of something.

"Saber, caster, that's..."

A strange figure appeared at the front end of the road, illuminated by the headlights of Mercedes. Irisviel immediately screamed when she saw this sight.

The tall figure in front of him seemed to ignore the danger of the speeding car and stood calmly in the middle of the road.

Luxurious gown with ancient style.

The dark texture is dotted with blood-red patterns. The unusually large pupils make people easily think of nocturnal animals. And even if you exclude these strange places, it is definitely not possible for such a person to appear at such a time and place.

Will be an ordinary passerby.

The inertia of the car body was offset by the friction of the tires, and Mercedes finally stopped. The car body was less than 10 meters away from the figure in front.

"No, it can't be..."

After seeing the other party clearly, Ilia finally remembered the plot that would happen here - the appearance of a paranoid perverted murderer who mistakenly recognized the person.

"caster..."

Regarding Illya's sudden announcement of her job description, Saber was stunned for a moment and then nodded in understanding.

Saber quickly analyzed the current situation and then said to Irisviel.

"After I get off the bus, you come down with Caster. Anyway, don't stay too far away from her."

If the other party is a Servant, a car with a steel tube frame is as fragile as a cardboard box to the other party. If you remain in the car, you will be defenseless. In short, it is better to move to a position where you can defend yourself against the other party's attack.

Saber opened the car door and walked into the cold night. The night wind rustled the trees, and the air was mixed with the smell of burnt tires due to friction.

Ilia then got out of the car and stood warily in front of the driver's door.

When Ilia put her eyes on the other person's face again, she saw the other person's smile.

The other party was smiling, for no apparent reason. And it didn't look like the smile of a soldier who died generously. Why was the caster in front of him smiling like this? His expression was as if long-lost brothers were reunited, full of joy.

A flawless smile shines on his face.

And just when Saber was confused by the other person's smile, Caster in front of her made an even more puzzling move.

Caster lowered his head respectfully, kneeling on the asphalt road like a courtier meeting the king and said:

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Your Highness the Saint."

"Um……?"

Seeing Saber who was becoming more and more confused about the situation, Illya almost laughed out loud.

Irisviel, who then came down from Mercedes, hid behind Illya and looked at Caster quietly.

"Saber, do you know this person?"

"No, I have no impression of him at all..."
