Emiya Shirou did not answer, his gaze fixed on the humans running through the trading city below, his thoughts drifting back to a time in the past.
There are limits to the level of protection one can offer. The underlying code cannot be modified by just anyone. Please stop this doomed attempt immediately.
On that day, a reminder came from the Britannian consciousness, unrelated to anything else, but a warning to Shirou Emiya to stop certain actions.
"What are the problems? Could you be more specific?"
Fairies have no future and cannot be changed.
"I understand. I'll pay attention."
After giving a hasty reply, Shirou Emiya stopped what he was doing and began to think.
Does "protection" mean that I use various means to make the fairy obey me?
His actions were completely different from what the British consciousness had said, and at the same time, he thought of the shocked expressions that Maeve and Chief Rain had occasionally shown over the years.
Many things became clear; oh, so that's how it is.
So, does that mean I shouldn't offer any protection? Does it mean I can just ignore everything and not do anything about it? Does that mean I shouldn't care what happens next?
Emiya Shirou's thoughts wandered. He thought of the future memories Morgan had obtained, and the fact that he wasn't in those memories.
"So... does my non-interference mean annihilation?"
As she spoke softly, the image etched in her mind resurfaced: Morgan was crying, crying helplessly like a pitiful cub, curling up in his arms seeking a sense of security.
"She has been working hard for her plan. She would be sad if the world were to end."
I rubbed the helmet with my hand, and its white gleam became even more dazzling.
"Besides, I still owe her a favor, so it's okay if I'm a little tired, it's not a big problem."
"However, 'dreams' will eventually end, so try to make yourself satisfied before they end."
It's both giving an explanation to the previous dream and giving an explanation to yourself, so that you won't feel too bad when you wake up. Otherwise, a bad dream ending is like a movie with no ending, which can make you feel bad for a very long time.
"Hey, what are you spacing out for? Why aren't you saying anything?"
Maeve waved her hand in front of her, interrupting Shirou Emiya's recollection. After regaining his senses, he pointed below and said...
"They've already entered the library. What exactly are you trying to do? Can't you really share something?"
Maeve rested her chin on her hands, elbows on her knees, and whispered, "We've known each other for so long, it's okay to let some things slip, right..."
"···"
What am I supposed to say to you, you rascal?
"Well, it's really nothing, it's just about sharing some risks. Fairies can't leave humans, but humans can't live with fairies in the current state."
"The current way of getting along is wrong, so we need to correct it. Sooner or later we will take over the outside world, so we need to plan ahead."
In the end, it was said that Shirou Emiya could never keep things to himself in certain ways.
"I see~ Indeed, it's taken us a thousand years to achieve this result in our territory. We really need to prepare as soon as possible outside~ You've thought of everything so thoroughly, White Knight Boss~"
Maeve burst into a bright smile. Great, Master didn't hide anything.
She had read in a book that if people who were originally close suddenly stop saying anything, it's likely that they dislike each other. But now it seems that her worries were unnecessary.
"Alright~ I'll be going now, where's Master?"
"I'll stay a little longer. You go ahead, but don't tell anyone I'm here."
"Okay~ I understand~"
Only Shirou Emiya was on the thick branch, looking a little lonely, but it was alright, he wouldn't care about such trivial matters.
Morgan has been studying the Holy Lance for a long time, and the progress seems to be good. The tree under his feet seems to have other uses. Should he ask about it when he has time?
Well, everyone has things they don't want to tell others. I have things I haven't told anyone either.
The plan has begun, and the goal this time is to change the narrative of British will; hopefully, it will succeed.
Emiya Shirou sat cross-legged, gently stroking the branch—hard and full of magic—while his gaze remained fixed on the humans in the trading city.
A few months later, a new building reappeared next to the main entrance of the City of Trade Library.
"We're launching a new quest system today! Completing quests will earn you rewards, including material rewards and points. Points can be redeemed for special books, equipment, and library viewing time!"
"My lovely humans, the fairy's treasure isn't something you can see for free. If you want to continue watching, go and complete the quest!"
A strange building suddenly appeared overnight. The brown-haired fairy lady who was usually seen had a new job. Several humans across from them looked at each other in confusion, and one of them walked over.
"Could you tell me more about that fairy lady?"
"Sure~ Here you go~ This will do."
The brown-haired fairy smiled and nodded in agreement, handing out several flyers. The group walked to the side, where many fairies and humans had already lined up.
"Everyone can take a look! After completing the missions, you can redeem many prizes, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
As flyers continued to be distributed, the prizes that could be redeemed gradually became apparent.
[Rain Clan Caravan Members: Can purchase special high-level supplies]
[Special High-Level Equipment: Wearing this equipment will allow you to defeat high-level fairies]
[Eligibility for Membership in the Rain Clan]
····
Numerous rewards are available, ranging from food and supplies to water, equipment and ores, free accommodation in the trading city, discounts on caravans, and even the opportunity to join the Rain Clan!
For thousands of years, the Rain Clan has only communicated with the outside world through caravans, and the caravans that come out of the Rain Clan carry the rarest and best items!
What has made the Rain Clan's name known most in recent years is the Trading City. You can buy anything here, and you can set up a stall in the city to sell your wares as long as you pay some money. Most importantly, you don't have to worry about being robbed by other fairies.
The City of Trade is a place that values rules and order. Here, you must abide by the rules of the City of Trade, or you will be kicked out or buried alive.
This is all proven by actual actions. Previously, dozens of high-level demons rushed in to cause trouble, but they were killed in a few blows and hung at the city gate. There are no traces of them now.
"Hiss, are all of these real?"
Someone asked incredulously.
Brown-haired Fairy: "As long as what's written on it is true, you can redeem it as long as you have enough points."
The human who had been hiding nearby crept closer and whispered, "Miss Fairy Administrator, can we exchange for something else? Like, your friendship and help or something..."
The man asked nervously, while his companions formed a wall around him to prevent other fairies from getting close and overhearing.
Unexpectedly, the other party simply smiled and nodded: "Sure~ But this requires quite a few points, and we won't put a price on it. We will observe your qualifications from multiple perspectives."
"But I can guarantee that as long as you work hard, that lord will take notice."
That adult?
With a mix of joy and confusion over the answer, several humans huddled together to the side, whispering and exchanging ideas.
"What do you think?"
"We'll just stand there and watch. This kind of thing can only be good for us; we have to do it!"
“That’s right. We’ve been learning from books for free, which is really not good. The book says that everything should be based on reality and not deviate from the facts. Isn’t this an opportunity?”
"That makes sense. Learning is simply about demonstrating observation in practice. That makes perfect sense!"
"Then it's decided. Every day, we will not only review the data, but also accept and complete commissions. This is not only for ourselves, but for all mankind!"
"The original light of humanity shines within us! Keep going!"
"come on!"
"come on!!"
After discussing it, everyone decided to do it! So what if it's tiring? For the future of humanity, let's do it!
"Miss Administrator! We need to accept a request!"
"Okay~"
A strange scene unfolded in the trading city. Outside, life continued to pass away at will, with high-ranking fairies indiscriminately slaughtering their prey and causing disasters that took away lives from time to time. But inside the city, there were honest fairies bound by rules, fairies and humans who accepted commissions to help out everywhere.
Outside, it was a hellish scene, but inside the trading city, it was peaceful and stable.
As those humans continued to fulfill their missions, they became increasingly certain that they were on the right path; however, they still needed to accumulate knowledge and equipment.
They believed that only if they were qualified could they save humanity!
However, they weren't completely idle. While handling commissions, they constantly interacted with humans, observed them, and determined whether they could be won over.
There are bad people among humans, that's undeniable, but there are also good people. The oppression of fairies has lasted for thousands of years, and humans have long had enough.
Therefore, when someone expresses a desire to overturn this, the majority of people agree and concurre.
As for the bad guys telling the other high fairies that they could stay safe as long as they were in the trading city.
The next step is to accumulate strength.
Ten years later: The number of people rebelling against the fairies reached a thousand, and they began to exchange for equipment and learn knowledge.
Twenty years later: The population doubled, and people continued to study. Some people asked for their own territory. They went to the fairy administrator to inquire and were granted permission to establish a base next to the trading city.
Thirty years later: Someone suggested why we couldn't take over the trading city, since it had plenty of resources and could be used to launch a rapid takeoff. The suggestion was rejected.
Forty years: The proposer of occupying the city of trade suddenly launched an attack, only to be defeated by the brown-haired fairy and given a major warning.
Fifty years: The number of humans who died ten years ago has been filled, fame begins to emerge, and more and more humans come to join.
Sixty years: War begins. A sudden attack by high fairies is repelled, and people from the trading city come to treat the wounded.
Seventy years later: Several elders felt it was time to begin large-scale equipment exchanges and recruitment. On the same day, their child was born, named [Yuse].
Eighty years: Yuther displays great talent and gains recognition from divine weapons. An elder inquires about the Rain Clan's eligibility to join, leaving behind a seed for the future. Even if they fail, there is still a future. Everyone agrees and goes to ask. The request is approved, and Yuther gains a teacher, a teacher known as the White Knight.
Over the next decade or so, under the tutelage of the White Knight, Yuther learned management, farming, warfare, and weaponry, and his skills improved rapidly in all aspects.
Meanwhile, as the number of people in the team increased, Yuther continued to put his knowledge into practice, arranging his troops and planning planting around the territory. Everything was progressing steadily.
Ten years later, the human army had reached a terrifying size, numbering several thousand.
Decades of accumulation have resulted not only in a large number of people, but also in the birth of a legion under Yuther's leadership.
Roundtable Army
Youse chose this name because he overheard it during a conversation with his teacher, and he felt it was a good name.
Then one day, the five great fairy clans suddenly declared war, saying that the Round Table Army was seriously affecting the status of humans and making the situation of fairies in this world, where there are far more fairies than humans, even more difficult.
This is unacceptable! This is unforgivable! The fairies will unleash their punishment! Humans who cannot provide emotional value to the fairies should simply disappear!
"Teacher, this is the contents of the envelope the clan chief handed us. What should we do?"
The handsome young man, Yuther, a knight in armor, presented the envelope to the knight in front of him with both hands, showing utmost respect and awe.
The other person reached out, but instead of taking it, pushed it back.
"That's your Round Table Army. Fighting for humanity is your goal. How you decide to proceed is your business."
"All I want to say is, start from your own heart, and the outcome is all within your heart."
Hearing his master's voice, Yuther slowly closed his eyes, wanting to examine his own inner choices.
Am I ready?
It's all done; everyone was ready a long time ago.
Can the Round Table Army win?
It's hard to say, but it's worth the effort. If we fail once, we'll try again. The Round Table Army isn't afraid of failure.
The result seemed obvious; Yuther, as the leader of the Round Table, knew everything. The expectations of their fathers' generation, the eagerness of everyone, and the choices made by all their companions were all there.
"Teacher, I am ready to fight! I will write a new future for humanity, and I will liberate humanity from the status of being slaves to demons!"
With his hand gripping the envelope tightly, Yuther's eyes were filled with unwavering conviction and burning rage.
The White Knight raised his head slightly: "Then go, I have faith in you."
"Yes! I will definitely not let you down!"
Let you feel the rage that humanity has accumulated over thousands of years!
I, Uther, will lead the Round Table to write a new future!
