When Dilumudo completely dissipated, Clovis looked at the Wild Rose in his hand with a dumbfounded expression. Because of his FA, Clovis knew that if a Heroic Spirit discovered the inner resources, it could actually leave everything, including the relic, to its master.
However, he never expected to receive a gift from Dilumudo, who was about to leave. This was definitely beyond his calculations.
Doing such a thing meant that the Heroic Spirit had temporarily given up the ownership of the relic. In other words, if Dilumudo was summoned as a Lancer again, the only relic left would be the doomed Yellow Rose!
He silently called out Dilumudo's name in his heart, but unfortunately, no one would respond to him.
Clovis had never imagined that Dilumudo, whom he had summoned in exchange for a holy relic, would do so much for him.
Clenching the Wild Rose in his hand tightly, he placed it back into the carriage after a moment. Seeing Sakura's expression return to normal, Clovis started the engine again and drove off into the distance.
He had already asked Old Master Fujimura to prepare a spare place for him.
To be honest, ever since he came to Touki City, Clovis had received help from the Fujimura family in all aspects.
If it weren't for Old Master Fujimura's help, things wouldn't have developed as smoothly as they did now.
However, Clovis had nothing to repay the old man for the time being. Moreover, the old man's help to Clovis was the kind that didn't ask for anything in return. It was more like an old man helping someone he liked.
"Yo, Ke-chan, you're here."
He drove to the place where Old Master Fujimura had prepared to stay. Before he parked the car, Clovis saw a young girl sitting against the wall on the steps at the door.
"Big River?" That's right, this girl was Dahe Fujimura.
Although Clovis had returned to Dongmu City for the safety of the river, he could maintain a distance from her, afraid that she would be involved in the battle between the magicians.
But Clovis had not expected to meet him here.
"Big River! Why are you here?"
Clovis asked anxiously after parking the car.
Although he had already withdrawn from the Holy Grail War on the surface, who knew if someone would take things too hard and come looking for trouble with him?
After all, he had chosen to stay away from Dongmu City. Although he was far away from the whirlpool of conflict, it was equivalent to giving up the protection of the church.
Without the protection of the church, he was just a newbie magician, even with the protection of one of the twelve kings, Elmero.
But now that the leader of the Elmero faction, Kensi, had already participated in the Holy Grail War, it was hard to tell whether this deterrence would work or not.
If he lost this layer of protection, how could he face the lurking spies in the dark as a new member of the Clock Tower?
As for the Edfeldt family?
When Clovis had chosen to continue taking Kensi as his master, he had taken the initiative to terminate his contact with Luvia. At this time, it was hard to say whether the Edfeldt family would kick him when he was down, let alone hope for help.
"I heard from Grandpa that you're going to sponsor here for a period of time. I thought you definitely didn't prepare those daily necessities, so I came to take a look."
As if sensing the worry in Clovis's eyes, the river's voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.
" Forget it, it's too late. You can stay here for now. I'll inform Grandpa Fujimura to send someone to pick you up tomorrow," Clovis said helplessly. However, the girl was at her most difficult time to communicate with during her rebellious period. How could she listen to his opinion?
"I don't want to!"
Big River's mouth was puffed up like a bun. He turned around and walked into the house without any intention of cooperating.
Clovis couldn't help but laugh when he saw Big River like this. He had forgotten that Big River was only a fifteen-year-old girl, and she was at the most unruly time of her life. She didn't even listen to her grandfather, so why would she listen to his opinion?
Helplessly, Clovis could only find time to call Old Master Fujimura and see what his plans were.
Just as he was about to return to the car and carry Sakura out, he could clearly feel the young girl's body tremble when his fingers touched her.
"You're awake?"
Clovis asked as gently as he could.
“......”
The young girl did not speak. She did not even open her eyes. However, the corners of her eyes that were constantly trembling revealed her true condition like an ostrich burying its head.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. Moreover... The bad guy has been beaten away by me, so you don't have to be afraid.”
Seeing Sakura like this, Clovis felt a pang of sadness. As expected, even if it was the same thing, the feeling of being a bystander and a witness was different.
Although he was sure that he had arrived in a world with a crescent moon, and that the time was not long before the start of the fourth battle, Clovis immediately thought of this poor girl.
But before he truly rescued Xiao Ying, that feeling was different.
The reason why Clovis chose to use the last command spell to save Sakura was essentially a kind of " heroic consciousness " at work. He was thinking more about things like " I saved another innocent little girl " and " I'm so great."
But when he saw Sakura's current situation, Clovis was only left with regret. Why didn't I come to save her earlier? How much more pain did my hesitation cause this child to suffer?
"Sorry, I... I didn't come to save you at the first moment."
Looking at Sakura, whose eyes were closed and body was trembling, Clovis said sincerely.
“！”
Suddenly, a small, cold, soft thing touched his cheek.
Clovis subconsciously looked over. It was Sakura who had reached out and pressed her hand on his cheek.
The young girl opened her mouth to say something, but no sound came out. This abnormal situation attracted Clovis's attention.
"Xiao Ying, are you alright?" Clovis nervously leaned forward, trying to hear the young girl's voice.
“...氵... The pass…Yes, thank you... Thank...亻... Er "
