"Huh, huh..."

Her cherry-colored hair was soaked with sweat and clung to her neck. Nakano Miku was panting heavily. For Miku, who wasn't in good physical condition, this day of running around with Oda Nobunaga had already pushed her to her limit.

But what she saw made it impossible for her to stop, nor did she dare to stop.

Everywhere you looked was ruins and rubble, with corpses scattered like garbage. The cries of family members and the screams of the crowd turned that area into a living hell.

Even after Oda Nobunaga defeated the dragon, people were not freed from despair. Nakano Miku saw a middle-aged woman frantically digging at the rubble with her bare hands, her fingernails broken and twisted, her hands covered in blood, but she did not stop, because her child was buried underneath.

Similar tragedies are happening everywhere. The casualties caused by the wyverns and giant dragons far exceed those caused by the sea monster in Kobe. Not to mention that this is not the only place. Today alone, Miku and Oda Nobunaga rescued people in three different places.

It is said that the other two heroic spirits, who possessed the ability to fly, provided aid to even more places.

During this time, Nakano Miku kept vomiting, while Oda Nobunaga just stood by and watched.

"If you cannot overcome fear, you will be destroyed by it."

"Don't let me down, Miku."

Nakano Miku doesn't know how she managed to hold on. Perhaps it was her love for Oda Nobunaga, or perhaps it was her desire to prevent more tragedies. After all the monsters were subdued, she returned home and finally broke down.

"Sir Saburo."

Even though she used a more intimate term of address, Miku still subconsciously used honorifics.

"How long will this continue?" Nakano Miku gripped the hem of her clothes tightly. "Why have these monsters come to our world? So many people have died..."

The Nakano sisters also looked somber. They were already considered lucky to have many mini-letter guardians, but the tragedies reported in the news were already too much for these high school girls to bear.

It's so tragic.

Human lives were reduced to mere numbers of those slaughtered, displayed in such a pale and powerless manner.

Oda Nobunaga calmly watched as Nakano Miku slowly squatted down and hugged him, waiting quietly for her to calm down.

"If we don't fight, this invasion will never stop."

"And the number of deaths will only increase like a snowball, because current human technology is no match for the monsters."

For once, Oda Nobunaga showed a kind and benevolent side: "If you can't bear it, then break the contract. In the future, you will face more and more deaths, and you may even die yourself."

"Be grateful, this is the last chance I'm giving you."

The Nakano sisters looked at each other, and Nakano Satsuki stood up on behalf of everyone: "Miku, whatever choice you make, we will support you."

Nino Nakano deliberately said, "If you don't want to, then let me do it instead."

Nakano Miku trembled, and she raised her head, her eyes already red and swollen.

These are her sisters, her five most beloved and closest sisters.

Will he die?

Miku Nakano realized that she was indeed too naive. Before this, she actually thought that death was far away from her and her sisters.

Looking back now, they were only able to survive because they had Oda Nobunaga's protection. Without Oda Nobunaga, the five sisters would have been killed innocently at any time and place, just like those who were killed by monsters. They might have even died in the Kobe incident.

If the last time it was because of her hidden love, this time it's because Nakano Miku has truly come to terms with reality.

In this broken reality, the Nakano family cannot leave Oda Nobunaga, otherwise their fate will be out of their control, and they will die without a burial place.

Regardless of her love, she also wants to protect her family!

"Do not."

Nakano Miku stood up, her blue-violet eyes showing a tenacity and determination completely different from before.

“Let me continue to follow you, Saburo-sama!” Nakano Miku said emphatically, having made up her mind. “If I unfortunately die, please choose another contractor from among the remaining sisters.”

“Nino is very good. She likes you very much and is stronger than me.”

At that moment, Miku disregarded the conflict between her sisters and her own feelings, and instead considered the matter entirely from the perspective of her family.

"Who asked you to make decisions for me!" Nakano Nino's face turned red with anger. "Don't say such unlucky things. Even if I replace you, it's because I'm better than you, not because you're dead, do you understand!"

Nino Nakano likes Oda Nobunaga, but if she had to choose between her sisters and Nobunaga... she would choose her sisters.

Faced with Miku's life, she was willing to give up love.

The other sisters were also angrily criticizing Miku.

“Such words are absolutely forbidden.” Ichika Nakano crossed her arms in front of her chest.

"I'm getting angry!" Nakano Yotsuba puffed out her cheeks, a rare occurrence for her.

“Miku, you are the most important to us!” Nakano Satsuki held her hand.

"You are also my most important sisters."

Nakano Miku's gaze was gentle.

Then, she said to Oda Nobunaga, "Lord Saburo, may I speak with you in private?" She didn't want her other sisters to worry.

Oda Nobunaga's blood-red eyes seemed to see through people's thoughts. He nodded slightly and returned to the room with Nakano Miku.

"Sir Saburo."

Nakano Miku took a deep breath, barely managing to calm her racing heart: "Please tell me, the crisis that follows is probably even more serious." (Attitude)

Otherwise, Oda Nobunaga would not have bluntly stated that Nakano Miku might die.

"Holy Grail War."

"what?"

"I think only an idiot would believe that. What kind of all-powerful wish-granting machine is that? That thing has no other use than as a bomb!"

Oda Nobunaga waved his hand, showing a rather magnanimous attitude towards the Holy Grail. In other words, apart from Gilgamesh, who considered the Holy Grail a treasure in his treasury, the others on Aoki Makoto's side had no interest in it whatsoever.

"However, there will still be people who are deceived and fight and compete for the Holy Grail. Even if there are only seven Heroic Spirits fighting each other, they are still heroes who can be remembered in history. Even if they are fools, it can still be called a war."

"And there was a Holy Grail War that took place in another world at another time that overlapped with our world, and everything there also affected this world."

"Although it is useless except as a bomb, the Holy Grail has undeniable magical power. In other words, if the person who fought in the Holy Grail War were to seize the Holy Grail, who knows what kind of wish she would make, and it would also make the situation in our world even worse."

"On the contrary, because of the overlap, the heroic spirits of our world can also participate in this Holy Grail War. If we seize the Holy Grail, we can summon more heroic spirits, and more people can be saved when monsters invade."

Oda Nobunaga didn't make it too complicated. He simply told Nakano Miku that if they didn't get the Holy Grail, the world would be doomed.

"So, do you have the awareness to be a savior?"

"Nakano Miku."

At this moment, Oda Nobunaga, no, perhaps it was Aoki Makoto, asking Nakano Miku a question.

The cherry-haired girl took a deep breath, a method she always used to ease her tension, and then gave her answer.

“My answer is the same as before, Saburo.”

"Let me follow in your footsteps and together we will achieve the unification of the world by force!"

If the Holy Grail can grant all wishes, then fulfilling Oda Nobunaga's wish is hers!
