Chapter 59
: Farewell!
Chapter 59, Section 59: Farewell!
"Your wishes have all been fulfilled!"
"goodbye!"
The enormous dragon raised its head and spoke, its voice echoing across the sky before finally dissipating into seven different points of light.
The sky cleared up again, revealing its normal state.
"Finally. It's over."
Matou Kariya breathed a sigh of relief, and then, watching Berserker and Rider gradually turn into light, he knew that Sakura had made it through safely this time.
"Waaah."
"Don't go!"
The little hands were gripping the armor so tightly, and her small cheeks were streaked with tears.
"."
He simply smiled reassuringly and then conveyed his final words to the young Master.
Parting does not mean the end.
Sakura, this world is vast, and many things await you, so don't be discouraged by my disappearance.
Girls look better when they smile.
The words, constructed with magic, revealed the girl's face, and her cheerful and contented smile remained in her memory.
With the girl's shout, the reliable figure vanished along with the speck of light.
"don't want!"
.........
"Rider, are you leaving?"
"ah"
"Hmm"
Watching Lelouch begin to turn into points of light from his legs upwards, Waver felt a moment of reluctance.
"That one!"
"It's so great to have you here this time!!!"
"If it weren't for you, I might be dead already."
Weber hesitated and looked around for a moment, then mustered his courage and shouted.
The voice went from high to low, and Weber was so glad he had drawn a "good card".
If it weren't for Rider's constant guidance and planning, with his immature performance, he wouldn't have won in the end, and might have died somewhere along the way.
Don't underestimate yourself.
"You also contributed this time."
"After going through so much, you are no longer the person you used to be."
Hearing the other person's familiar words of encouragement, Weber was inexplicably moved.
"That's right! I've already thought of my future goals."
Recalling something important, Weber quickly recounted it.
He has to tell Rider!
We need to reassure the other party before they leave!
"I will definitely become an excellent magician!"
"Although I don't know if I can do it, it's definitely something that can't be achieved by making a wish."
"I will be like you! I will change all of this with my own hands!"
That righteous and earnest attitude also expressed his determination.
"Hehehe"
"What's so funny?!"
A low chuckle came from Lelouch's mouth, as if he had heard a joke.
Feeling mocked, Weber complained unhappily.
He had to muster up a lot of courage to say those "big words".
"!"
But the next moment he suddenly felt a blur before his eyes, and a white imperial robe was draped over his shoulders.
"this?"
"By order of Lelouch vi Britannia."
"Weber Velvet!"
"You must live on and..."
"Become a great magician! Become the foremost magician in Holy Britain!"
Upon recognizing the familiar posture and the "command," Weber was momentarily stunned.
"And the answer?"
Seemingly displeased with his dazed expression, the emperor issued a "question".
"Waaah"
"Yes, ma'am."
"His Majesty!"
With one hand gripping the white imperial robe draped over his shoulder, Weber could no longer hold back the tears hidden in his eyes, and responded in a trembling voice.
It wasn't Geass's coercive constraints, but rather his agreement with himself!
On that day, the young man bid farewell to the "emperor".
…………
"Well, we should go too!"
As the game was about to end, Jonouchi shouted heartily.
"Hehe, it can also be considered a trip."
Sakura Kyoko glanced at him, then closed her eyes and laughed heartily.
The fact that those who died because of her were brought back to life put her at ease.
"Sakura, so there's no need to be so pessimistic. As long as you live, good things will always happen, right?"
"Yes, thank you for everything during this time, Jonouchi."
They began to dissipate, exchanging their final words.
"Oh, right, Assassin!"
"?"
"Although I don't know your name."
"But if we have the chance to meet again next time, Sakura and I won't lose again!"
Turning his head, Jonouchi spoke to the silent Kenshin.
"Yeah?"
"Next time, I won't be so immature."
Upon hearing this, Kenshin thought of his final battle with Saber, and a smile appeared on his lips as he answered softly.
…………
"Another bowl, please!"
"Okay, okay, don't rush, there's more."
Irisviel looked at Saber, who was sitting there begging, and smiled with relief as she replied.
"Maiya, where's Kiritsugu?"
"He took Ilya to the park again. They should be on their way back."
"Ugh, really, why are you always so slow?"
It was almost lunchtime, but this repeated delay was really not in line with the man's behavior.
But Irisviel knew very well
That was Kiritsugu's first step in abandoning his "ideals".
He no longer clings to the so-called "world peace," but instead accompanies Ilya as a "father."
Since the end of that war, in that man's tearful embrace, Irisviel sensed his underlying feelings.
That was the joy and excitement of "losing and finding".
Later, they encountered Saber and asked for her help to go to their "home" and bring Illya out.
Ultimately, they settled down in Fuyuki City, a place full of unexpected connections.
Although it's an ordinary life, I feel very fulfilled every day.
"But, unexpectedly, Saber, as a Heroic Spirit, was also resurrected."
"Was this considered a mistake?"
"No, I was already in a 'half-dead' state, and it seems Weber's wish has included me in that as well."
While eating, Artoria continued to explain.
It's quite a strange story; her "resurrection" was practically an accident.
"Won't that have any negative impact?"
Thinking about the origins of the Heroic Spirits, Irisviel became a little worried.
"It's nothing. The worst-case scenario is that I'll probably never be able to summon Saber class characters again."
Ignoring such things, Artoria still found the rice delicious.
"I'm full! Thank you for the treat!!"
With her hands clasped together, she politely thanked him and finally left Emiya's house.
"Um?"
Back at the villa where they were staying, Artoria saw a boy wielding a sword in the courtyard as soon as she entered. She asked him a question.
"Have you finished eating?"
"Shirou?"
"Oh? Teacher! Yes, my family eats dinner very early, so I came over early after I finished eating."
The red-haired boy paused for a moment, then stopped swinging his bamboo sword and answered.
"It's not just me, Sakura and Rin are already reading in their rooms."
The boy named "Shirou" pointed to the villa and then spoke.
"Sakura and Rin?"
Artoria glanced out the window and couldn't help but feel that he was being a little too diligent.
Thinking of a certain scenario, she finally laughed.
"However, it's not necessarily a bad thing."
PS: The next chapter will provide a more detailed account of Sakura, Rin, and Shirou's situation.
