Shirou Emiya in the moon cell

The return of Velber

The next day

Shirou and Saber went to the throne room to talk to Hakuno Kishinami

Hakuno: Shirou, welcome back

Shirou: Im back, Hakuno, I want to continue the discussion we had two days ago

Hakuno: so you still want me to help earth huh?

Shirou: of course, I cannot just ignore the suffering they're feeling right now, I have to help them

Hakuno: hmm, so you're really a hero of justice huh? A person who saves everyone... it's a bit ironic if you ask me, but also, it's a beautiful dream, so sad it can't become a reality

Shirou: what do you mean?

Hakuno: Saving everyone is just impossible, you want to be a hero of justice, but justice is on itself cruel and unfair. If you want to save everyone, this also means saving the bad people, the people who cause problems to the world. If you are selective and just save the good people you set aside justice, and if you save even the bad people you're no longer a hero, you can see the contradiction

Shirou: I know that, but even if it's impossible, even so I need to try

Hakuno: hmm, thats a good determination you have there, you are decided to keep on living a dream you yourself know is impossible to achieve, it's kind of inspiring even, but even so I cannot help you

Shirou: why? Why is it so difficult? If you have the power shouldn't you use it for what is right? If you have so much power why not use it to save the people?

Hakuno: because I trust earth, I trust they can grow up again, more unified and strong than ever, that's why I limit myself to watch over seraph, that's my role

Shirou: I see, so you choose your kingdom over the people on earth, I can understand why, but there's one thing I don't get

Hakuno: hmm? What is it?

Shirou: aren't you from earth too?

In that moment Hakuno's eyes opened wide in shock, then he closed them, made a deep sigh and said

Hakuno: ...sadly, earth was never my home, unlike you I'm not human, and unlike my people I'm not npc, I'm just a glitch in the system that has been given the role to look after seraph and that's what I'm planning to do

Shirou: you...

Hakuno: well that took long enough, sorry but I can't help earth, I gotta go, I have things to do, but we can talk later, you can stay here any time you want so don't worry

Hakuno then left the room leaving Shirou and saber in the throne room, then a familiar face showed up

Nero: please watch your tongue outsider

Shirou: huh?

Nero: my praetor has been through a lot to be where he is right now, and you have no right to order him around, if you want to save earth that's good, but my praetor has no responsibility over what happens to earth

Shirou: ...

Nero: well if you want to talk with him he's in the back, he should tell you

Shirou went to the back room to find Hakuno sitting in a desk with a lot of green computer screens around him.

Shirou: Hakuno

Hakuno: hmm? Oh if it's Shirou again, do you need anything?

Shirou: please tell me, who are you? Or more importantly, what are you?

Hakuno: ...

Shirou: ...

Silence ruled until Hakuno spoke
