My youth story, a crossover anime, turns out, is FGO!

Compared to the well-known Oda Nobunaga and the Nakano sisters, King Arthur's operation can be described as low-key.

As always, he did not reveal his true face or offer any further explanation, and left the scene directly.

"Are you alright, Arthur?" When they got home, Eriri looked him over and, finding no obvious injuries, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, Eriri," Arthur said softly. "I have a good grasp of my abilities."

"Moreover, with Avalon protecting us, there won't be any problems as long as we don't attack any vital points."

Eriri didn't feel comforted by these words; her hand unconsciously twirled the hem of her clothes: "I've realized I don't really understand you."

Arthur was slightly taken aback.

The blonde girl stared at him stubbornly, her clear blue eyes sparkling: "I don't know anything about Avalon, and I don't know what you're thinking... I feel so useless."

"If only I could stand confidently beside Lord Nobunaga like that girl!"

"I want to do this!"

Even if she faces doubts and attacks, at least she can stand openly by Arthur's side and assert her dominance, instead of always watching Arthur charge into battle.

Eriri looked at Arthur expectantly.

Arthur remained silent for a moment.

“That’s not an easy thing, Eriri.” As the king of Britain, he possessed a noble and awe-inspiring demeanor, untouched by worldly dust, but that didn’t mean he was truly ignorant. Politics was a dirty business, and he was not only a knight but also a king.

"Many people will question you and attack you with their words. Many things are baseless, but public opinion can be overwhelming, and you can't refute them. There will also be more people who approach you with malicious intent and try to take advantage of you. Moreover, in the future... there might be threats from other Servants. I don't want you to face such a future."

Even so, once a contract is signed with him, it's unavoidable. No matter how Arthur hides his identity, it will inevitably be revealed in the end; the only difference is sooner or later. But at least for now, Arthur doesn't think Eriri can handle it.

"Moreover, not only you, but your family will also face the same pressure. Are you really ready to face this, Eriri?"

Arthur's voice remained calm; he offered no opinion on Eriri's thoughts, yet simply stating the facts was enough to dampen her enthusiasm.

"I..." Eriri opened her mouth, but didn't finish speaking. Clearly, she was caught in a dilemma. Even if she had mustered a little courage, she couldn't help but hesitate when faced with external malice.

“But I don’t want to go on like this.” Eriri subconsciously clenched her fist, feeling the pain of her nails digging into her flesh, forcing herself to muster her courage. “Watching you go to fight, I’m really worried and sad.”

If Eriri hadn't witnessed Nino Nakano standing next to Oda Nobunaga, she could have convinced herself to stand by and watch. But now, she questions why she can't bravely stand beside King Arthur, and she's even more afraid of Arthur leaving her.

She might not be of much help there, but as long as she was with Arthur, she felt safe.

Arthur sighed slightly; he understood Eriri's thoughts.

She was terrified, terrified that Arthur would disappear, terrified that Arthur would leave. This fear even overwhelmed her usual fear of malice from the outside world.

"Then let's wait a little longer, Eriri."

Arthur bent down and stroked the blonde girl's hair, calming her mind.

"You can think about it some more before the right time comes, Eriri."

"As your servant, I will support any decision you make."

The blond knight king remained as reliable and gentle as ever, as if he could tolerate and accept anything.

But that's precisely why she was terrified.

Eriri couldn't help but ask herself.

What merit do I possess to become King Arthur's master?

For the next few days, the two continued to interact as before, but Eriri felt a heavy weight pressing on her heart.

"Yinglili."

Mrs. Sawamura waved the movie tickets in her hand and winked at her daughter, "Tomorrow is a special day, take this opportunity to relax."

Japanese people like to circle their days off in red, so days off are also called "red days".

"Huh?" Eriri didn't react for a moment and blankly took the movie ticket.

"Alright." Mrs. Sawamura could also sense her daughter's bad mood. She didn't know the reason, but she knew it was related to Arthur.

"Don't overthink it," this mother, who is deeply immersed in otaku culture, said with great tolerance. "Whatever you do, make sure you're happy."

Eriri's eyes welled up with tears: "Yes, I understand, Mom."

Arthur readily accepted Eriri's invitation. So, on this day off, Eriri dressed up meticulously. She, who usually slept in late, arrived an hour early, changed several outfits, and even carefully selected the hair clips in her hair.

With her light makeup, her beauty was even more captivating, truly befitting one of the two most beautiful girls at Toyonosaki Academy.

The clothes Arthur was wearing were not the casual clothes that had previously appeared to be formed with magic, but rather the ones prepared by Mr. Spencer. The white shirt had a simple design, paired with black trousers, which exuded nobility and handsomeness in its simplicity.

Eriri blushed slightly, and finally quietly reached out and wrapped her arm around Arthur's.

Arthur was slightly taken aback, but did not refuse.

Along the way, this perfect couple attracted the attention of countless people.

Unfortunately

"Why come to the movies? Instead of watching one of those movies where you know the ending from the beginning, I'd rather go home and watch the Sherlock Holmes stories again." The boy's clear voice was full of boredom.

"Shin-ichi!" The girl's voice clearly suppressed anger. "Is it so hard to come out with me? You know Sherlock Holmes by heart, don't you? You can still predict the ending just by reading the beginning!"

"This is completely different! I could watch Sherlock Holmes's films countless times and never get tired of them!"

Then the two groups collided head-on.

"It's you!" Because of the misunderstanding about "catching someone cheating" last time, Eriri didn't have a good impression of Shinichi Kudo, even knowing that he was a famous detective didn't change her mind.

For some reason, her female intuition told her that the moment she saw Shinichi Kudo, she suddenly felt that her rare date was ruined.

"Ah, it's you!" Shinichi Kudo recognized Eriri and Arthur as well, since both of them had very distinctive features. "And you, Arthur."

"So, you only remember Arthur's name, right?!" Eriri was speechless. Was her presence really that insignificant?

Shinichi Kudo fully embraced his typical straight-laced man persona and replied matter-of-factly, "Yeah."

Ran Mouri, standing to the side, felt incredibly awkward, yet also secretly pleased.

Eriri: "..." Damn it, she's a pretty girl, isn't she? What's wrong with this guy?!

Shinichi Kudo was now almost completely ignoring Eriri. His gaze was fixed on the blond youth beside him, his blue eyes filled with suspicion. This young man named Arthur looked really familiar.

Unlike the previous Sea Monster incident, where Shinichi Kudo only saw the live broadcast and the image was somewhat distant and blurry, this time Shinichi Kudo saw all three Servants face to face. Even though Arthur concealed his face and his armor slightly altered his height and physique, his noble temperament and upright posture were still highly recognizable.

Arthur? King Arthur!

Shinichi Kudo's expression gradually spiraled out of control, and he even lost his voice: "You are..."

King Arthur? !
