Type-Moon: My Destiny Guide

He had seen Ilya in that world as well, but back then Ilya was as pure as a blank sheet of paper, or like a handful of first snow that would melt in your hand, completely unlike the vibrant girl before him, who was an ordinary child who had grown up in happiness.
For this family, whose life has been full of hardships, ordinariness itself means a precious happiness.
However, since he changed the outcome of the Fourth Holy Grail War, Illya will eventually become just as beautiful.
Thinking this, Sakugetsu turned her gaze to Emiya Shirou.
There was no ripple in my heart.
The influence of the Great Hero was long gone after obtaining the Holy Grail; now he is merely the New Moon.
Just like Shirou, even though his sister became a magical girl, he still grew up as an ordinary high school student, no longer having his hands covered in blood from contact with the mysterious.
This is also a good thing.
Bringing her thoughts back, Shuoyue waved to Illya, who was holding an umbrella, indicating that the umbrella was a gift for her. At the same time, she took out some small gifts and gave them to Shirou, Sera, and Liz.
With the help of Shuoyue's methods and the 'beautiful young man with a beautiful face' skill, he quickly became familiar with the people of Ilya's family. Because of his mysterious identity and his speech that was far beyond his age, he naturally won Ilya's admiration.
"Speaking of which, what brings you to Fuyuki City in the new month?" Shirou asked curiously during their conversation.
Upon hearing this, Shuoyue gestured to him with her priest's robes, a 'pleasant' smile appearing on her face:
"As you can see, I am currently a member of the Fuyuki City Church, representing the Almighty Lord, and a messenger spreading the gospel."
"Wow...that sounds so cool!" Ilya's eyes lit up. At her age, anything outside of school would seem new and exciting to her.
As for the fact that Sakuyue didn't seem to have graduated from elementary school yet, that had long been banished from Ilya's mind.
Such demeanor, such speech... how could she be a primary school student!
"Everyone, dinner is ready!"
"Oh, here it comes!"
As the lights came on at night, Shuoyue had her first meal at Ilya's house. After the meal, Shuoyue excused herself, saying she had to go to church to handle some matters.
Stepping out of the house, Shuoyue looked up at the starlight in the sky... no, it was two intersecting flashes of light, one red and one blue. The smile on her face faded, replaced by a somewhat complicated expression.
The two magical women were fighting in the air—which also meant that the great hero's sister, whom he was desperate to save, and the Servant he summoned in the Holy Grail War, had now arrived in Fuyuki City.
"Duan Zang, have you found him?"
"Yes, the target has been located."
"Make sure she is safe. I'll be there soon."
After a brief greeting, Shuoyue started walking.
Chapter 233 Miyu Arrives in Fuyuki
The night is already deep.
In the Great Hollow of Mount Enzo in Fuyuki City, a figure slowly emerged.
She was a girl with short black hair and a black dress that trailed on the ground like a wedding gown.
Her clothes blended almost perfectly with the night, except for her pale skin and amber eyes, which shimmered faintly in the moonlight.
Holding onto the mountain wall, the girl slowly walked out of the cave. Gazing at the view of Fuyuki City that stretched out before her, she stared wide-eyed in a daze.
The lights of human civilization shine on the earth, with the old town of Fuyuki Bridge as the boundary, and the new town of Shinto shining with orange and cold white light respectively.
The stars in the sky are blinking, and the city lights on the ground are flickering; that is the rhythm of life, that is the breath of the world.
This is Fuyuki City, but not that Fuyuki.
Like the end of the world, the desolate city with a huge crater in the city center has been abandoned in another world. Her brother sacrificed himself to send her to Fuyuki City, which is more peaceful and more worthy of life.
Looking at the heartwarming lights of countless homes, the girl subconsciously took a step forward.
Pain came from the soles of my feet.
Stepping back, the girl lowered her head. Several stones blocked the road, things that could be easily kicked aside, but she didn't even have shoes, her bare feet completely unprotected.
She came into this world as a sacrifice, possessing nothing but a long dress that barely covered her body.
Carefully groping her way, like a baby just learning to walk, the girl held onto the mountainside, enduring the pain of walking, and finally reached the foot of the mountain, standing on the asphalt road.
Thanks to the country's good hygiene practices, the girl was finally spared the pain from the loose pebbles on the mountain path, and the pain in her feet lessened slightly. But what followed was a gust of icy wind.
Early spring is a time of fluctuating temperatures, with the weather warming up only to be chilly again.
Although there were few pedestrians, most of them were wearing long-sleeved jackets and stared at the girl walking in the middle of the road with strange expressions.
The headlights of a car in the distance suddenly appeared, accompanied by a horn, startling the girl so much that she stumbled and ran to the side of the road.
She had always been sheltered by her brother and had hardly ever left home, so naturally she didn't know the difference between a roadway and a sidewalk.
But now she and her brother are separated by vast distances, and the girl must use her own hands and feet to touch and measure this world.
So the first step is to have a set of warm clothes.
It seemed that the power of the Holy Grail still lingered on her. In the corner in front of the girl, there lay a bag of clothes that looked like they had been discarded by someone else.
Behind her, two streaks of light, one red and one blue, intersected, but the girl was completely unaware. She simply walked forward step by step and reached out her hand.
My hand was held, and the warmth spread along my arm and throughout my body.
"Those clothes don't suit you."
Trembling, like a frightened little animal, she looked up and saw a white-haired boy with a somewhat complicated expression.
Yes, the boy was the new moon.
From the moment Miyu left Mount Enzo, he had been silently watching this nominal 'sister,' seeing her endure pain and pain all the way to where she was.
Shuoyue had considered stepping forward, embracing her like he did during the Fourth Holy Grail War, gently telling her, "This is your brother, it's okay now," and then protecting her for the rest of his life, watching her grow up.
But that's impossible, absolutely impossible.
"Why, Master?" While hiding in the shadows to protect Miyu, Kato Danzo watched Sakuzuki repeatedly reach out but then pull back, unable to hide his confusion.
Shuoyue, who had already transformed into a young boy, closed his eyes and sighed with a hint of helplessness:
“I am not qualified to adopt this child. I am a wanderer, a wisp of wind that cannot be held back, and I cannot be bound by anything.”
Just as Kiritsugu Emiya shed tears in the Winter Castle, saying, "I am not worthy to hold this child," Sakuzuki also understood Kiritsugu's heartache and helplessness at that time.
He was not a great hero after all; he had his own life to live.
Yes, adopting Miyu is very simple. There are only a handful of people in this world who can defeat Sakuyue. If Miyu wanted, Sakuyue could even pluck the moon off her.
However, even though the new moon is all-powerful, there is one thing it can never give Miyu.
That is companionship.
Regardless of whether the mandatory skill 'Endless Sorrowful Wishes' exists, Shuoyue is destined not to stay in one world for long.
The Second Singularity, the Holy Grail War of the Moon, Fate/Grand Order... There are too many adventures waiting for him, and he cannot stop.
Let's follow our original destiny, wander to the park, meet Sapphire, meet Luvia, meet Illya, meet Rin, meet our precious friends... and the crisis lurking in the distance will be reversed by Sakuyue herself.
As long as Miyu can live peacefully in this world, that's all that matters—in that case, Sakugetsu can be considered to have fulfilled the wish entrusted to him by the great hero.
Yes, that's what he thought.
Seeing Miyu helplessly adrift in this vast world, even having to pick up other people's clothes, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
Is this the influence of the great hero, or is it my own pity at work?
Shuoyue stopped thinking about the question, because his instincts beat reason to his and he grasped Meiyou's outstretched hand.
In a daze, it seemed as if the new moon had returned to the beginning of the Fourth Holy Grail War, but the current Miyu was not a Servant, but a living human being.
What a wonderful journey, brother. We'll meet again in that world, won't we?
The azure-colored magical girl overlapped with the timid girl before him. The boy blinked, then simply opened his arms and picked up Miyu:
Welcome!
As if the past were repeating itself, Miyu, who had intended to push Sakugetsu away, once again felt that comforting aura, as if her brother had crossed the world to come and meet her again.
“Brother…” The girl clutched Shuoyue’s clothes tightly, sobbing softly.
“No, I’m not your brother.” A hint of bitterness appeared on the boy’s lips, but it quickly disappeared. “It’s just that as a priest, I can’t bear to see lost sheep wandering in the world. Yes, that’s it.”
Continuing to hold Miyu in a princess carry, feeling the girl's slightly uneasy movements, Shuoyue spoke: "Duan Zang."
"Yes, Master." Kato Danzo appeared before Sakugetsu, carrying a clothing bag in his left hand.
Knowing that Miyu would be coming to Fuyuki tonight, how could Sakugetsu not have made preparations?
They keep saying they won't interfere, but in the end, they're just saying one thing and doing another.
"It's yours now." Shuoyue handed Meiyou to Duanzang, then turned away without hesitation.
"Yes." Duan Zang took the bewildered Mei You, turned around and hid in the shadows. Soon, there were rustling sounds and the girl's exclamation.
"Wait, Miss Duan Cang, not here... Ah!"
"Um, I don't need this, right? Oh! I can do it myself! I can do it myself!"
"I put them on backwards... Waaah."
Shuoyue's lips twitched as he listened, but fortunately Duan Cang didn't make things difficult for him for long. Soon, he led out a beautiful girl dressed in cute children's clothes, her face still flushed.
Compared to the pale-faced beauty in the long dress she was before, Miyu is now much more energetic and lovable.
"Well done." The young priest clapped his hands in satisfaction. "Now let's go eat."
"Eat?" Miyu subconsciously looked up, her stomach rumbling in response, making her lower her head in embarrassment.
Seeing Meiyou's shy expression, Shuoyue smiled gently and took her hand with tender eyes: "Let's go."
Um. "
They didn't go to any fancy hotels or high-end restaurants. Sakuyue just took Miyu to a random roadside izakaya. With the combined 'persuasion' of Fukuzawa Yukichi and the young priest, the owner willingly gave up his seat so that Sakuyue could cook a bowl of steaming rice porridge herself.
Simple congee and side dishes are even more comforting.
Silently waiting for Miyu to finish her meal, Sakuyue estimated that it was about time, stood up and said, "Duanzang, take Miyu to the park to wait later. That's where she belongs."
After swallowing her food, Miyu hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"
She didn't know why the boy gave her a sense of security, why he knew her name, or why he was suddenly being so kind to her... But the fact that Shuoyue left so suddenly still made Miyu feel panicked.
