Emilya sat seiza-style upon a small clearing of dew covered grass, the cool mountain air blowing against her face and through her hair. It was the night before the Rating Game that would determine Rias' future for better or worse. Though during the time she spent training Kiba and Issei she noticed something… off… about the nameless blades or low-costing Noble Phantasms she Traced. She didn't feel any drain on her mana pool.
While Illya's body did have a ridiculous amount of magic circuits that allowed Berserker to perform his absolute best during the Grail War Emilya had still felt some sort of drain whenever she performed any thaumaturgy. However, now the drain was gone and she was out here to figure out why that was, with several low-cost and high-cost Noble Phantasms surrounding her. Balmung, Yew Bow, Gáe Bolg, Kanshou and Bakuya, Durandal, Tawrich and Zarich and more; as she let out a calm breath feeling no drain in keeping the many Noble Phantasms out. She couldn't really believe what was happening and was about to Trace a blade close to her heart before she heard the snapping of a twig. Waving her hand across the clearing all of the blades and other armaments dispersed into the usual motes of light.
"Emilya-chan! Are you out here!?" The Magus let out a relieved sigh as the voice came several meters away from where she was located. However, that raised the question: which of the two boys were out looking for her? Standing up from her spot on the ground the pinkette walked over to whoever was trying to find her.
Surprisingly enough it turned out to be the sole [Knight] of Gremory walking in the dark trying to find her. "Yuuto-san? What is it? Shouldn't you be getting your rest for the Rating Game tomorrow?"
"Yes, I know I should be resting for the match, but I wanted to see if you and I could practice a little more. I tried your room but instead of you I found a small body pillow being squished in between Camael-dono and Mittelt-chan in your place, so I began to look around outside and lo and behold here I find you. What were you doing out here anyway Emilya-chan?" The blonde asked, making the loli break into a nervous sweat.
'Crap! What should I tell- OF COURSE!' "I was just meditating for a bit. The mountain air helps me relax, so I'm just trying to clear my head from all of the stuff that's been going on as of recent."
"Ah, that makes sense. We must have put you under a lot of stress during our training. And I don't think it helped when Camael-dono and Mittelt-chan didn't show up until seven days into the camp." Kiba took a seat on the grass which was soon followed by Emilya as they looked up at what was visible of the stars from the canopy of trees.
"Yuuto-san, why do you fight? What drives you to become stronger? Is it Gremory-senpai? Or is it something else?" She knew that it was pointless to even ask the question, after all his swords spoke for him whenever she saw them. He fought for revenge, although it had died down since his time with the Gremory clan it was his main reason for becoming stronger. Yet, she still couldn't see what the Holy Sword looked like, the one that caused the blonde so much pain and suffering over the years.
The second-year was silent as he looked upon the stars with a small smile on his lips. "As much as I'd like to say it's for Buchou… I can only say that she's part of the reason why. Though I guess you already knew that, didn't you?" Red-eyes widened as they looked at the blonde who was continuing to smile upwards. "I'm not sure why, but… my swords… they react to you for some odd reason. Almost as if they were children and you their mother, wanting to do the best they can to impress you in whatever way they can."
The Magus couldn't believe what she was hearing. Kiba's swords. Weapons created by the [Sword Birth] were bolstering their own strength just so that they could impress her? It was incredibly astonishing that swords created by some unknown means were acting like that. "Huh, well I guess that I'll leave you to finish your meditation then. If I want to be at the top of my game tomorrow then I'll need that sleep more than I do the training. Meaning any training now would probably leave me sore in the morning. Goodnight, Emilya-chan."
The [Knight] left without another word, leaving the Magus to her thoughts as she processed the information given to her. 'For his swords to act like that around me… could it be that they're reacting to the Unlimited Blade Works?' That single thought brought a whole new outlook on the Sacred Gears into light as she tried to figure out why it would react in the first place. "I can't worry about this right now, I should get back before Camael and Mittelt wake up to find that I'm not in between them anymore."
