Alternative/Zero One's
The Empty Cup Started to Fill

Bullets were spewed from his Magnum pistol. Darted fast. I thought that was when I died, but I didn't. The bullet quickly passed right beside my right ear, resulting in the swamp being being shot by Kenji in the upper left chest. The swamp monster let me go. Kenji quickly pulled my hand and hugged me. The swamp monster was in pain and retreated slowly away from me, casually Kenji picked up a huge camping bag and his lion fur coat then put it on and covered me up.

"See you, Mud swamp." Said Kenji grinning. Kenji threw a flash bang. The flash bang exploded and blinded everything. Since my entire body was covered by a fur coat then I couldn't see what was happening. I just kept hugging Kenji tightly. Soon Kenji took off his robe to get me out. I don't know what kind of magic Kenji uses but we're definitely not in that temple arena anymore. We were in the wilderness.

"How can you?" I asked very amazed.

Kenji just kept quiet. He lowered the bag like a camping bag that was almost the same size as him.

"I should have asked. Why are you back?" Ask to get some stuff out.

I immediately felt guilty. Of course, because I haven't been able to thank him. But I'm just bothering him until it becomes like this. I can't say anything.

"Woi your cipher is so ugly, son. Did I not explain it to you. You're the "legitimate owner" of it. Same with Slave, whatever extent you are separated will definitely be reunited." Said the mouth that was on Kenji's cheek. As often as I see it I can't get used to it.

"Legal owner? Someone said that to me too. He asked where the "legitimate owner is". What's that supposed?" My toot.

"Hmm." Said the mouth.

"Let's start with the Mythological War. Mythological War is a very deadly weapon made by the gods, demon kings, and also other great creatures to kill a figure named OVERLORD. OVERLORD is a creature that should not exist in this world.no, that is to say throughout singularity. Of course killing something complicated requires complicated weapons as well. It uses the souls of heroes and saints of different ages and living humans to race to hunt down and kill the OVERLORD."

"Well, the souls of all ages I'm referring to are called Slaves. And the surviving humans I'm referring to are the Ousamas who contract with the Slave. Each Ousama and Slave pair will kill each other and hunt the OVERLORD like a battle royale, the cycle will continue until the OVERLORD dies. And you're a little girl. Is a container to accommodate the souls of the participants of the holy grail war both the souls of the Slaves and the souls of the Ousama who died during the Mythological War to form a new OVERLORD. And by "legitimate owner" is the rightful owner of the holy grail." Obviously the mouth.

"So I....." I was so shocked, my mouth was shaking like a man who wanted to cry.

"Yes, you are that holy grail. That's why you don't have a memory. That's why you can't remember anything that happened in your past. You're just a tool the former OVERLORDs used in the Mythological War." Kenji said coldly. He was still reading the papers he might have collected from his loot.

"No...maybe...." I couldn't hold back my tears, I covered my mouth with both hands. I can't believe I'm just part of the Holy Grail War.

"Hm..... I know being frank is your natural thing and I love it. But isn't that too much?!" Said the mouth.

"Excessive? I think the world is overrated. Her hero? Don't joke! Fables and fictional stories are just illusions, just entertainment for the community. If I am given a choice, whatever, as exciting as my destiny in this world. I prefer to be an ordinary and normal person living peacefully in my home world. That's why I just want to go back to my world. I'm not a hero because I want to be. Don't you think you're the only one hit by a cruel fate." Kenji. He started to clean up his stuff.

Even being a positive figure is not necessarily someone who wants it. I almost forgot something like that. Not everything in the eyes of others is positive for us and vice versa. Compared to my circumstances, Kenji's struggle in fighting for his life up to this point was even more painful than mine. She did not cry and neither did she complain all she could do was try as best she could. While I am nothing.

"Then take me, Kenji. Wherever you go. Youre right. I was empty and empty like a cup without any water filling it. You can use me whatever you want. Maybe that's all I can do to fill my emptiness and emptiness. Let me repay your kindness when you save me." I finally made up my mind. It doesn't matter if I'm empty, it doesn't matter if I'm just a tool, as long as there are people who can smile, can be relieved, can be helped, can be helped, because of me then it is more than enough if my existence has value and means even if only for one person.

"As far as you go." Kenji then began to continue on. I immediately wiped my tears and started following her from behind.

"Oh yes, Kenji. You really shot me...." I said a little annoyed.

"Aren't you the one who asked?" Kenji answered briefly. People have a heart, don't shoot women.

"Without hesitation?" My toot. Kenji then looked at me. I thought with a guilty face.

"My training was pretty good, so I didn't hesitate to shoot it. Besides, it would be more efficient to shoot him up close, so I took advantage of your drum when you told me to shoot you so that the swamp monster controlling you approached." Answer without guilt.

I don't know why even though the reason makes sense but I still feel annoyed. Could have used my cry earlier in the arena just to kill that swamp monster. But either my reaction or my feelings for him won't make him soften. As a person who is indebted to him also I have no right to say or complain in any form.

"Then from that...." Kenji approached me. I thought he was gonna do something to me. She covered my entire body with her lion hair so I was invisible.

"Don't complicate my journey by getting yourself caught by the enemy. So stay close to me." Kenji. Well, even so, his attitude is harsh, outspoken, sometimes reckless and cruel. Kenji still has a soft side and cares for me even though I'm just an empty cup girl.
