This chapter is also known as "We are friends after this bowl of poisonous chicken soup"; "Is it wrong for the descendants of heroes to become Hero of Justice"; "A divine assist from the commentator Medusa"
"Shinji, I know you are there again, come out!"
"..."
No one, that's a given. Because Shinji is not a bold person at all, it is not even an exaggeration to say that he is a brave person.
Shirou also knew the character of his troublesome friend, so he directly gathered his magic power and shot Void Bullet at Shinji's side.
Void Bullet exploded, because Shirou had grasped its power, and did not use too much force before throwing the knife.
"I say it again, come out! Otherwise the next shot will not miss!"
"Wei, Emiya..."
Knowing that he couldn't hide it, Shinji walked out of the shadow in the corner tremblingly. That was scary.
"Ha~ can't you, this guy, make people worry less?"
Shirou sighed. As a friend, he knew Shinji's character. In a word, lack of courage.
Shirou threw Medusa at Shinji's feet like a sack, making Shinji tremble again in fright.
"It's you who did the beautiful decoration, right?"
Shirou asked.
"Wei, Emiya, please listen to my explanation, I..."
"Stop, there is no need to explain this kind of thing. Holy Grail War is not allowed to involve ordinary people, otherwise they will be hunted down by those old immortals like Mage's Association. I will only warn you about this matter once."
"Holy Grail War, you are chosen too, Emiya."
Shinji lowered his head and spoke in a low tone. He heard Sakura say before that Servant seemed to appear in Shirou's house, but he still didn't believe it. Now he believes it.
At the beginning, he had the idea of "If Emiya is Master, then let him realize Rider's power and form an alliance with him; if Emiya is not Master, then let Rider scare him and stop him from coming out at night."
But now it seems that Shirou is not only Master, but also a powerful Magecraft master. It can even defeat Servant easily.
What's going on? Doesn't this make him just like a wretch?
"To be honest, Shinji. I'm quite disappointed to see you like this..."
Before Shirou could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a sudden Shinji explosion.
"What do you know? You are so self-righteous when you think you know everything!
You are a Magecraft master and you can dress up Servant yourself. As for me, I'm just an ordinary person! In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of Servant, I can only make trouble for ordinary people!
I've had enough, it's just not fair! "
Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with what Shinji said. But from the perspective of a Magecraft teacher, this is too naive.
"You mean... male?"
Shirou looked at Shinji complicatedly, and said quietly:
"Now, Shinji. I have investigated your family's history. Your Matou Family's history can be traced back to Europe. You are a descendant of the great hero of Greek mythology, Perseus."
"!!!"
Hearing Shirou's words, Medusa suddenly turned his head to Shinji's position. Although she was wearing a blindfold, Shinji could still feel the former's gaze.
It's like being targeted by a natural enemy. This feeling is uncomfortable.
"One of Perseus's most famous achievements is the crusade against Demonic Beast Gorgon on Shapeless Isle. I won't tell you the specific process, but as the target of the crusade, you should know the situation best!"
Shirou turned his gaze to Medusa to signal the other party to tell him the specific situation.
As for whether Medusa will ignore him, Shirou is not worried about this. Because Medusa is not the type who is good at rejecting other people's requests.
"Oh? Do you want to reminisce about the past? He is a really stupid guy."
Medusa's tone was quiet, as if she was not the one who was killed.
"However, it doesn't hurt to tell you. That man was a coward. He was trembling all over when he got close to me. In the end, he attacked me while I was sleeping and chopped off my head."
"W-What? Didn't you say that Perseus fought with Gorgon in Shapeless Isle and finally defeated her?"
Shinji showed great surprise. When he was a child, all he read were orthodox myths. It was impossible to record things like sneak attacks and trembling.
"Oh? Is this what your records say? He really has the character of those gods."
Shirou No matter what Medusa says, he just wants to pour some poisonous chicken soup into Shinji's soul.
"So, Shinji, your ancestors have done it, why don't you try harder? You all have two shoulders against one head, and no one is any worse than the other, right?"
At first glance, it sounds reasonable, but how about Perseus has something to do with me, Shinji Matou! He can be famous forever, can I?
The above is the idea of Shinji.
Although Shirou does not have the ability to read minds, Shinji has already written his thoughts on his face.
This is not okay.
"That's true. Could you please tell me what kind of person Perseus is, Miss Medusa?"
"It's not impossible. If I have to describe it, he is quite similar to the Master. The only difference between the two of them is their hair. That man is a winner, but my Master is not, that's all."
Shirou Hearing this, Medusa is a great assist. If I don't drink this poisonous chicken soup now, I'm afraid there will be nothing left in the future.
"Listen, listen, now you know, the difference between you and a hero is only one person, so why not choose someone who has been a hero?"
"But, I don't have Magic Circuits..." Shinji still wanted to quibble. It seems that the pie of hero is not attractive enough.
"That's okay. I'll help you later. Just endure the pain."
"... I don't have the divinity of Perseus."
In Greek mythology, Perseus is the descendant of the god Zeus. Well, Zeus has so many descendants!
"That thing has no use! It's useless except to make you look handsome and gain muscle. It's also easy to be targeted!"
At this time, Enkidu, who was guarding Emiya family's house, suddenly sneezed.
"You have a cold? You can't. How can I, a clay figurine or Servant, get human diseases?"
"Holy Grail War..."
"Greater Grail was scrapped seventy years ago. It doesn't matter whether Holy Grail War is beaten or not!"
Shinji thought this way. Hey, this seems to be what happened!
"Then let's try to be heroes?"
"Yes, yes, he Perseus is a hero. Then how come Perseus's grandson's grandson's grandson's grandson (the twenty grandsons are omitted here) are not the descendants of heroes?"
", I did it!"
Looking at the Matou Family's eldest son who was full of energy for unknown reasons, Shirou took two steps back. Then my heart started to feel happy.
Perfect, this is another scammer. From then on, Hero of Justice named Shinji Matou was born!
