Fate: I Will Eventually Become the Hero of Justice

Chapter 5

"Uh..." Shirou's eyebrows unconsciously tightened as he slowly opened his eyes. His consciousness had not fully returned yet, as if the pain in his brain from overuse was still present.

He felt a moist breath on his face and a soft, warm presence next to him.

Slightly turning his head, Shirou saw Sakura lying next to him on the pillow, sleeping peacefully.

With each breath, the warm air gently exhaled onto his face, like a cat's claws scratching an itch.

Shirou's throat was a little dry, so he slightly moved to try to get up and pour a glass of water. However, this slight movement woke the girl next to him, who let out a soft "mumble."

"Brother, you're awake," the girl says, rubbing her sleepy eyes and speaking in a soft voice.

"Sorry, did I wake you?" Shirou apologizes, his tired smile belying his still-weak body. "I was just trying to get some water and I guess I woke you up by accident. I'm sorry."

"Let me do it for you."

"No, it's okay. It's just a small thing. I can do it myself," Shirou smiles and tries to sit up, determined to take care of himself despite his weakness.

But to Shirou's surprise, Sakura pushed him back and said seriously, "Brother is a patient. You should lie down."

Saying that, she ran out of the room and went downstairs to get water.

Shirou didn't know what to say. He could only sigh that having a sister is really nice, especially one who is so considerate. But reason told Shirou that this is only temporary. Sakura had run away from home and the Tohsaka and Matou families will definitely find her.

Shirou shook his head, not wanting to think about these complicated things.

But even if he didn't want to think about them, these complicated things would come to him anyway.

Slightly lifting his hand, Shirou looked at the red marks on his palm, or rather, the cursed magical creations called Command Seals. A bitter expression appeared on his face.

He had wanted to avoid the Fourth Holy Grail War but ended up becoming a participant in it. And he even summoned the original owner who wanted to kill him.

As a result, when the servant saw that it was his young self who did the summoning, he decisively committed suicide, ultimately causing part of him to merge with his spiritual core and become a sub-servant like Mashu, as well as a part-time Master...

Isn't this pushing him to a dead end?

As both a Master and a servant, even if he wants to withdraw from the Fourth Holy Grail War, he can't. The only way to withdraw from the Holy Grail War is for either the servant to perish or the Master to perish.

And now he is both a servant and a Master, how can he withdraw? Use his head to withdraw?

Is the outcome going to be that he either scrapes by and wins or gets crushed to death?

"My luck... it's really not good. Why is it so bad!"

He wanted to avoid the Fourth Holy Grail War and the mysteries, but in the end, he has become tied to the Holy Grail War in a relationship where either he dies or the other person dies.

How unlucky!

It's like carrying water with a bamboo basket, tears coming before words can be spoken!

"What is this?"

Suddenly, Shirou was surprised by the sight in front of him.

In front of him was a frame, like the system frame described in novels.
