Le prime 200 righe.
A man dreamt...
...of the world's salvation.
Another man chose...
...the survival of his species.
And I wished for...
...a single person's happiness.

Beast's Lair & Astro Subs
The Sakatsuki family?
Yes.
It's a family with an old history,
tracing back to the roots of Fuyuki.
There's nothing special to mention about them, except for their long history...
But there's something strange.
Strange?
No one ever witnesses the birth of children in that household.
What does that mean?
After age 6, they'll suddenly appear, out of nowhere in this world...
...recovered from diseases, adopted from another family, children of relatives.
This is the remnant of the "Child Religion".
"Child Religion"...?
Divinity until age 6.
Children of age 6 and below are closer to God or spirits than any human.
It's that kind of religion.
In that case, if those children are close to God and spirits, then your wish...
The possibility isn't high that this Child of God in hiding might have the power we need.
Still...
If the possibility does exist...
Then it's worth a try from us, heroes of justice!
How many times do I have to tell you?
I'm not a hero of justice or anything like that.
Yeah, yeah. You're humble, I know.
What is the matter?
This... is...
What is that...?
What is happening...?
This phenomenon is far beyond humans...!
This is bad Kiritsugu!
That black thing... is expanding!
Get in the car, Shirou.
We're leaving.
What are you talking about, Kiritsugu?
At this rate, the city...
It's okay as long as it stays in the city...!
We don't know how further it'll expand...!
It might even reach all the way here...
No, in the worst case scenario, it'll engulf the entire country...!
But that's why we-
We can't go further on car...
Kiritsugu, I'm going!
Wait, Shirou!
Shirou!
You are...?
Watch out!
Don't collapse yet...!
What was that?!
Can't breath...
Was that her doing?
This is the first hug... since Mother...
Sakatsuki Miyu.
The hidden Child of God descendant of the Sakatsuki family.
It seems like they set up a Bounded Field inside the house. Her birth and upbringing must've been inside.
Then what exactly is the Child of God?
Why did they lock such a small girl inside?
Shirou...
Looks like we may have finally found it.
Huh?
The Sakatsuki Child of God... their characteristics...
is the power to grant human wishes unconditionally.
Their magus set up a Bounded Field to keep human thoughts away.
With only its mother, they live inside for six years...
...waiting for the Child of God to become a normal human.
But today...
...something unexpected occurred and the Bounded Field collapsed as a result.
Suddenly, people's wishes reached Miyu.
People's wishes?
The journey has ended, Shirou.
I will use this child.
And in this land of Fuyuki...
Humanity will be saved.
Um, Miyu is your name, right?
I'm Emiya Shirou. Pleased to meet you.
Emiya... Shirou...
Right, that's my name.
Emiya Shirou...
Just Shirou is fine.
Shirou...
Right. Since we'll be living together now, we're... like a family.
Like a family...
Yeah.
And the one locked in his office is Emiya Kiritsugu.
He's my savior and a hero of justice.
Savior...? Hero of justice...?
Yeah. I lost my parents due to an accident when I was little.
And Kiritsugu saved me back then.
You see, Kiritsugu is a weird person.
He has an ideal to bring eternal peace to this pain and suffering-filled world.
That is why I want to be a hero of justice like him.
Ah, I guess what I'm saying doesn't make sense to you.
Oh, it's about time I made the food.
Is there something you want to eat in particular?
Not really.
Then, is there something you hate?
No.
Okay. Then please sit tight and wait for me.
Wanna try it?
Kiritsugu, dinner's ready.
Yeah...
Aren't you pushing yourself too hard?
Just one more step.
Still...
We have the wish-granting device to save humanity
But I have no idea how to use it.
Um... Kiritsugu?
Miyu's sixth birthday is tomorrow, right?
Yes, that's right.
So, will we have a celebration or...?
What are you talking about?
Like I said, it can be a simple birthday celebration...
Kiritsugu?
Celebrate?
Celebrate that the Child of God is becoming more human?
We have no idea how long the Child can retain its wish-granting powers.
Is it based on Fuyuki's leylines?
Is it based on her age?
Who knows, she may even lose her powers the moment she turns six years old.
We do have an obligation to take care of that "thing".
Up to the point of providing her clothes and food is fine, as long as it doesn't cause any changes to it.
But don't misunderstand.
That "thing" is no more than the means to save everything.
I know it. I know he is correct.
Miyu is just a tool to save humanity.
Don't see her as a human...!!
Don't develop feelings for her..!!
Shirou.
Let's play.
Kiritsugu!?
I don't have long.
If that's the case...
Yes. I know my duty.
Not long after that, Kiritsugu passed away peacefully in his sleep.
Five Years Later -
I finished the repairs, Student Council President.
I see. Thanks for the hard work.
Alright, shall we have lunch, Julian?
Emiya Shirou, why are you having your lunch here?
Let's see...
I guess this is the only place to make tea?
If you weren't here, then this would be my personal place.
Come on, don't say that.
Is that all you're having for lunch?
Didn't I tell you that I'd cook your portion too?
Don't say such disgusting things.
Well, isn't it nice to have a chat or two during lunch?
In the first place, there aren't many students in this school.
This isn't the only place where there are few people.
You're right.
Ever since the Great Fire five years ago, there just aren't many people left.
According to the media, it was caused by a gas explosion...
But the people of Fuyuki know that that's a lie.
You... Did you witness the fire yourself?
Yeah. It was that pitch black thing that swallowed the city.
What about the moment... that shadow disappeared?
No. I was running for my life, so I didn't see it.
...Is that so?
Hey, you were here, Sakura?
Yup. For a while now.
You should've said something, then.
I didn't want to interrupt you.
You don't need to be that formal.
There's no one here beside us anyway.
I wasn't really being formal.
Hm?
Senpai is just so addictive to watch.
Addictive...?
I love... watching Senpai shoot.
Pure and synchronized with no wasted movement...
it's like Senpai is the bow itself.
J the bow... huh?
Welcome home, Shirou-san.
I'm back, Miyu.
I made potato stew for dinner.
I cut the ingredients into small portions to fit inside of tomorrow's lunch box.
I also- oh?
Is something the matter?
No. I just thought of how much you've grown.
If that's the case, I think Shirou-san grew more than me.
Haha. You may be right.
How is it?
It's delicious.
You've improved once again.
Thank goodness.
Oh, that's right, Miyu.
What is is, Shirou-san.
I bought a new book for you. I'll give it to you later.
Really? Thank you.
Before this you were always reading children's encyclopedia...
...and now you're even reading professional texts...
Is that... bad?
Its not that it's bad, It's proof that you're learning.
