Just as Shirou Emiya was about to collapse, Souji Otosaka emerged from the shadows with the mysterious heroine X.
Otosaka Souji stepped forward and checked Emiya Shirou's injuries.
"Was the heart pierced through?"
The mysterious heroine X, standing nearby, asked Otosaka Souji curiously.
"Master, do you want to save him?"
Otosaka Souji nodded and said.
"Hmm, he was an interesting person. It would be a shame if he died now."
As he spoke, Otosaka Souji used magic essence to repair Emiya Shirou's damaged heart.
After his heart was repaired, Otosaka Souji used lightning to stimulate Emiya Shirou's heart.
"Cough cough—"
Thanks to Otosaka Souji's efforts to save him, Emiya Shirou was brought back to life.
When Emiya Shirou opened his eyes and saw Otosaka Souji's handsome face, he said with great difficulty.
"Cough cough—, could it be... that you... saved me...?"
Emiya Shirou, who had just been rescued by Otosaka Souji, was still very weak and didn't even have the strength to speak.
Otosaka Souji readily agreed.
"That's right, you were just stabbed through the heart, and I'm the one who saved you."
"Thank you."
"Alright, you're fine now. You'll have the energy to leave after you rest for a while. I'll be going now."
After saying that, Otosaka Souji got up and left.
Shirou Emiya, still lying on the ground, wanted to ask Souji Otosaka's name.
Unfortunately, before he could finish speaking, Otosaka Souji had already left.
On his way out, Otosaka Souji met Tohsaka Rin.
No, it's less of an encounter and more of a case of Rin Tohsaka actively seeking out Souji Otosaka.
"Are you also a Master? What is your purpose in coming here tonight?"
In response to Rin Tohsaka's question, Souji Otosaka replied with a faint smile.
"I was drawn here by the exciting battle. I must say, the fight between your servant and Lancer tonight was truly spectacular."
Archer stood behind Rin Tohsaka, watching Otosaka Souji and the mysterious heroine X with a wary expression.
——————
After resting for a while and regaining his strength, defender Shirou Miyamoto got up.
Stumbling and staggering, they walked towards the Emiya residence.
After returning home, Shirou Emiya collapsed onto the floor, panting heavily.
"Who are those two men, the one in blue and the one in red? They're acting so strangely."
"Who is that man with the silver-white wolf tail? Why did he save me?"
“I was almost killed, no, not just almost killed, I was really killed.”
"But I was rescued later. Who was that man who saved me? I hope I can at least thank him!"
Thinking of this, Shirou Emiya touched his chest, specifically the area around his heart.
Suddenly, a figure appeared above Shirou Emiya, wielding a spear and thrusting it towards him.
However, Shirou Emiya, who was on edge, dodged the shot with a roll.
After dodging the attack, Shirou Emiya casually picked up a roll of paper from the side and used a strengthening spell on it, making it as hard as iron.
Then he looked at Lancer with a serious and wary expression.
Lancer, realizing his sneak attack had missed, turned to Shirou Emiya with a helpless expression.
"It would be very painful for you to see yourself being killed. I'm thinking of you."
Shirou Emiya didn't speak, but instead used the scroll he was holding, which had been enhanced by enhancement magic, to assume a defensive stance.
"Killing the same person twice in one day—is the world always this cruel and bloody?"
With that, Lancer brandished his spear, assuming a stance ready to attack.
"Don't hesitate this time, kid."
Lancer casually thrust out his spear.
Although Shirou Emiya blocked the shot, it still grazed his arm.
"Analysis, homology, material composition, reinforcement."
As Shirou Emiya muttered the incantation, the weapon in his hand emitted a faint green light, as it was enhanced once again.
Noticing Shirou Emiya's faint magical energy, Lancer raised an eyebrow and asked curiously.
"What a peculiar style."
"Hehe, although it's faint, I can still feel the magic."
"So that's how it works: a heart pierced but still surviving."
"We can finally have a little fun, can't we?"
While Lancer was relaxing, Shirou Emiya ran straight outside.
This time, Lancer used the long spear at the end of his hand instead of chasing after Emiya Shirou and kicking him.
"I've already given you a quick and painless death, why are you still making these futile struggles?"
"Don't you know that the more you struggle, the more painful it becomes?"
Shirou Emiya, who had been kicked away, used the force of the impact to escape into the storage room.
"The storage room is a dead end," Lancer said, pointing his spear at Shirou Emiya's eyes.
"Checkmate, kid."
"He's clearly very clever, but his magic tricks are terrible."
"Your aptitude seems quite good. Could you be the seventh master?"
Even if that's the case, it ends here for now.
With a resolute expression, Shirou Emiya sat up from the ground and said.
"Are you kidding me?"
"We were just rescued... Now that we've been rescued, we can't afford to die again so easily."
"We must live and fulfill our obligations."
"If I die, everything will be over."
"It's pointless to be in a place like this..."
