After that burst of white light that made people unable to open their eyes and look straight past, Saber felt that something seemed to be wrong around her.
In the open space above Great Void, Saber opened her eyes and raised her eyebrows as she looked at this familiar and unfamiliar world.
Although I don't know what the situation is, what I am sure of is that I and Shirou have indeed encountered an abnormal situation!
"Shirou, this is..."
Before Saber finished speaking, she suddenly discovered that Shirou, who was beside her when the dazzling white light burst out a few seconds ago, was missing!
And not only Shirou, but Illya, Berserker and others are also missing! He was the only one left in the entire mountain forest!
However, judging from the weak connections, Shirou should still be alive at this time! So Saber also breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking down the mountain, in addition to the seasons seeming to be reversed, the familiar town was reduced to ruins. In the center of the town was a huge crater that I had never seen before, and there was no sign of human activity in the entire town...
At this time, Saber already knew what her first move should be in such a world!
That's right! Now that I am alone in this strange world and my magic power is running low, the most important thing is to replenish my physical strength first!
"Gu——!"
That's right, the king is hungry!
After searching the entire forest, not even a single living creature was found, let alone rabbits. Saber finally knelt down. The situation in this world was harsher than she imagined!
"Damn it!"
Saber's fist hit the frozen ground hard, her face full of unbearability and resentment. In such a world, she couldn't even do such things as self-sufficiency!
rustle...
When she heard such a voice behind her, Saber was also startled and her eyes widened at the same time!
Maybe it could be...
Food!!
Saber's inner hope was rekindled. When she saw Bazett coming behind her, her hope was shattered again! The whole person became dejected once again!
And Bazett, who was in a suit and leather shoes... no, in a ragged suit, when he saw the strange glint in Saber's eyes when he first glanced at her and the gleaming corners of her mouth, alarm bells started ringing in her heart! No closer!
At that moment, Saber gave Bazett the feeling that the other party seemed to treat her as food! The other party is like a hunter who wants to prey on you!
But for some reason, when he saw it was him, the other person silently turned his face away, and was once again enveloped in low pressure. At the same time, he seemed to silently wipe the corners of his mouth.
After a long period of unusually weird silence, Bazett decided to ask Servant, who seemed to have arrived here before him, some information first.
Of course, on the premise of keeping a safe distance!
However, before Bazett could open her mouth, Saber stood up first and looked at Bazett with a serious face.
And Bazett was obviously startled by the other party's sudden action, and secretly became defensive. After all, he didn't want to become the other party's food!
Saber, who didn't realize that her reaction just now caused some misunderstandings to the other party, put her right hand against her chest and spoke with a serious expression.
"I know we all have a lot of questions to ask each other given the current situation, but before that, I have more important questions to ask you."
Looking at the other party's extremely serious expression, Bazett also swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously.
"You... you asked."
"Although this question is a bit difficult to discuss, it is indeed very important. That is you... have you brought food?!"
After hearing the question asked with a confused look on his face, Bazett instantly fell into a sluggish state that was about to last for two seconds.
In the forest of dead trees surrounding Great Void, Saber, who was behind a certain dead tree, was staring intently at the depression several meters deep that sunk into the landmark.
According to Bazett, the other party also appeared in this place, but almost half a day later than him!
So, that means...
Not only enemies, but also Shirou and others who are involved may appear from here!
Therefore, the best plan at the moment is to hide here and wait! Although the conditions are difficult, food is scarce, and the environment is harsh, there is no other way!
Not to mention, he had experienced such a harsh environment when he was still alive and leading the army to march and fight!
As she thought about it, Saber's face showed some emotion and nostalgia.
During the war years when I was still alive, when marching and fighting, I would always face times when food supplies were insufficient.
And once that time comes, his own soldiers, just like Bazett at this time, take the initiative to find supplies and food for themselves and the army!
Thinking of Bazett's calm analysis just now - when entering a battle, it would be impossible if hunger and cold affected the movement, Saber felt a little emotional.
Just like the former XX Qing!
Why haven't you come back yet?
When she heard the sound of shoes stepping on the snow getting closer and closer behind her, Saber kept reminding herself that she must not show too much excitement!
Calm down!
At no time can the king expose his own weaknesses!
You can't expose your obsession with food either!
As a king, you must stay calm at all times!
Otherwise, you may be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives!
"Please, I went to find some food."
After hearing the words of Bazett who stopped behind her, although she was excited, Saber ordered herself to be very calm!
While thanking her calmly, Saber took the food from Bazett without looking back and put it into her mouth without looking at it.
Click!
"Pfft——!"
Saber, who vomited out instantly, looked at the root-shaped food in her hand, and her forehead turned black in an instant, and she couldn't help but think of the most difficult era!
Is modern society... more difficult than that time?!
"What... what is this?" Saber lowered her head and hid her expression in the shadows as she asked.
"Food."
"But it looks like just wood..."
"To be precise, tree roots."
It's really more difficult than war times!!
Saber's heart was shocked, and then she lowered her head and looked at the tree root in her hand, with a black line on her forehead and said nothing.
Because... even I can't keep my mouth shut!
"What? Isn't it to your taste? I also found burdock..."
Upon hearing this, Saber suddenly felt that modern society is different from the war era she once lived in! You can feel it from the powerful pronunciation of the word "burdock"!
But soon, when she saw the so-called "burdock" handed over by Bazett, Saber became expressionless again.
Sure enough, it's still harder than it was back then!
In the end, Saber said that as Heroic Spirit, if she doesn't eat for a few days... ahem, a few meals, there won't be any problems!
And for this reason, he refused to feed Bazett!
Of course, Saber said this with a straight face and tears in her eyes! At the same time, I felt a deep sense of longing for Shirou who was not here at this time!
If Shirou was here, he would definitely be able to make delicious food out of nothing!
Shirou! I'll be waiting for you!
Until the last minute!
That night, due to hunger and cold, Saber followed Bazett to the stronghold Bazett was looking for - the abandoned elementary school. After stewing herself in an iron bucket, Saber accepted Bazett's proposal to rest here tonight.
Now that there is not much magic power left, I can only rely on sleep to save energy!
However, looking at the roots and burdock brought by Bazett, Saber was so hungry that she couldn't fall asleep! After all, going to bed hungry is too painful for Saber!
Late at night, the health room of an abandoned elementary school.
Looking at Bazett who was already asleep, Saber finally couldn't hold back her hunger. She stood up quietly and tentatively picked up the so-called burdock that the other party brought.
After secretly trying a mouthful, Saber spat it out again! He asked silently with tears in his eyes.
Shirou, where are you?
The third group that arrived in this world were Red A and Illya. They arrived in this world almost at the same time - two days after Saber arrived in this world.
As soon as he came back to his senses, Illya saw Saber, who had a very ugly face and a pair of big panda eyes, and Bazett, who was calmly chewing tree roots.
"Then what..." Illya looked around, then sighed helplessly and said, "It seems that he is really involved in a very troublesome situation."
"Illyasviel! Did you... bring food?!"
Saber, who no longer felt that there was anything difficult to say in this sentence, stood up first and asked with a serious face.
Listening to Saber's inquiry, Red A, who was holding his hands and looking calm, could not help but frown. In such an abnormal situation, how could Saber think about such a thing?
"Anyway, let's exchange information first. Saber and... Mage's Association's Miss Magecraft."
Through some traces, it was immediately clear that Illya, the two of them had been in this world for more than two days, and his expression became serious.
When passing by a park, Illya, who loves cleanliness, also turned on the faucet in the park, washed his delicate face with cold water, then raised his head and complained slightly speechlessly.
"I don't know the time in this world, I don't know what's going on in this city, I don't know what happened in this city, I don't know what's going on with the potholes in the middle of this city... Has it really been two days since you two came to this world?"
"We think it might be better to wait and wait, and we have found no trace of the enemy in this city..."
Bazett answered holding his chin.
"That's it..." Illya nodded, but the next moment he suddenly saw a small figure holding an umbrella who happened to be passing by the park and stopped to look over.
Looking at Beatrice who looked a little surprised, Illya was silent for a long time before speaking again, "What... have you two really searched this city carefully?"
"Well, let's patrol again." Bazett nodded.
"Then why did the enemy you said you hadn't seen appear in an instant!!"
"Hmm..."
Looking in the direction Illya pointed, after seeing Beatrice, Bazett thought quietly for a moment before speaking again.
"I don't know."
"Don't think you can get away with it by saying you don't know!"
