Other Dimension's Knight

Sakura was currently sitting down in the bas.e.m.e.nt where Shirou would usually train his magic. Alexander was currently analyzing her body and localizing the worms not with his eyes but with his mana.

To say the least, her state was critical and sickening. The biggest obstacle would be the worm connected to her heart. It was made so that the one who put the worm here could end her life at any point and also to make sure that she wouldn't want to try and remove it, otherwise her heart would get eaten away. There was literally a nest of worms inside of her body located in her w.o.m.b. She was probably sterile at this point considering the state of her reproductive organs, but magic could certainly heal that. The problems were the worms that were eating away her magic circuits. They would be tricky to remove, but nothing too dangerous. But he would need the help of someone weaker than him to remove the worm located near her heart.

Although Alexander had excellent control over his mana, he wasn't summoned as Caster therefore the vessel that was the Saber class didn't let him use his magic completely. In fact, he could also be summoned as an excellent Caster class servant. If he was in his Caster class or in his Grand Servant state, this wouldn't be a problem, but since he was limited in magecraft right now, and although he was not summoned as a Caster, he still had his own modified magic circuits, well more like magic core at this point therefore he had a lot more mana than normal humans. His lacking control over his mana would directly alert the worm near her heart and kill her so he needed someone weaker, and if you needed someone weak, his master would be the best in this. ( A/N: a little bit of bashing here )

His mana was too weak to alert the worm, and with his help, he could successfully 'sneak attack' the worm and destroy it. He couldn't ask Arturia since he knew that she was in the same case as him.

" Alright Shirou, I'll need your help with this. " said Alexander after reopening his eye.

" I'll do whatever I can. But I'm a beginner mage so I don't know if I'll be able to help you ... " said Shirou.

" No, it's exactly because you're so weak that you're helpful in this case. " said brutally Alexander.

Even Shirou couldn't help but frown a little bit at Alexander's words.

" Anyway, except the disgusting amount of worms inside her w.o.m.b, she has worms eating all of her magic circuits and replacing it by something else that I can't recognize yet. But the real problem is the worm near her heart. This worm is stronger than others and basically made to kill Sakura if something happens to the other worms or by its master's orders. So I need you to envelop every worm with your feeble mana so that they won't detect it and I'll erase them. " said Alexander.

Shirou, Arturia and even Sakura paled at his words. If it wasn't for the experience he lived in the war and in the fire ten years ago, Shirou was pretty sure that he would puke at the mention of having a nest of worm inside one's w.o.m.b. Sakura didn't actually know what the worms were doing, and except unbearable pain and other unpleasant sensations that she felt sometime, she never bothered to check what they were actually doing. Rather, it's more like her mental state forbade her to check the cold truth. Having her situation revealed like this another wave of negative emotions came out of her but was once again supressed by the pendant.

Even then, her main focus was on Shirou's reaction, if her whole hope rejected her because of this, she would truly become broken inside. Shirou showed sompe rage and a heavy frown but nothing more than this. He also sent a look of pity towards Sakura which reassured her a little bit.

" Alright how do I do this " said Shirou not wanting to leave these abominations inside her kouhai any longer.

" I'll help you guide your mana inside her body and soul, that's one of the few things I'm extremely good at, and then once you've got every worm, I'll send my own mana to destroy them instantly. " said Alexander.

" But .... how do you even get mana out like this " asked Shirou.

This time, Alexander was dumbfounded for a few moment, even Sakura was a bit taken aback by his words, the only one not showing any expression was Arturia.

" *sigh* Nevermind, it would take too much time to explain so I'll just take your mana directly " said Alexander, putting his hand on Shirou's back.

For a few seconds, nothing happened so Shirou was quite confused but after a while, he started to feel an extreme pain inside his body, it was as if something was forcefully opened inside of him. After that a weak strand of blue light came out of his body and went into Sakura's.

For about 5 minutes, the pain intensified for Shirou but he endured. At one point he felt an overwhelming amout of mana passing through his body before passing through the strand. Something cracked inside of Sakura and she screamed in pain before fainting a few moments later.

Shirou also fainted due to the amount of mana Alexander passed through his body. Although it was nothing for someone like Alexander or Arturia who had mana cores, for someone with barely above-average magic circuits that were just awakened, it was simply too much.

" It's done " said Alexander as he opened his eyes and realized that both of them were unconscious.

Saber was a bit worried but she believed in Alexander. The few days she spent with him managed to make her feel quite safe with him. She picked up Sakura while Alexander picked up Shirou and they left the bas.e.m.e.nt to put them into a bed to rest. Alexander told her that they just needed to rest for a few hours to a few days.

Shirou woke up in the afternoon, and had a lot of trouble moving around but he still could stand up and walk to some extent, but his arms were nearly unusable, they were incredibly sore and were really heavy.

Sakura was still sleeping and recovering. Alexander healed her entire reproductive system and her body, but her magic circuits that were eaten couldn't be healed no matter what, so she ended up with about half of what she should have originally, which was still 16 circuits of high quality. She really was a talented person with 33 magic circuits of high quality, which was only a bit more than her sister's 30 but Zouken basically ruined her.

" Shirou, I need to inform you that Sakura might be sterile even after the healing I did. " said Alexander as he was sitting around the table drinking tea with Saber and Shirou.

" I see ..... " simply said Shirou, not quite understanding why it seemed important to Alexander.

Alexander narrowed his eyes for a second on Shirou and sighed as he understood the situation. For him, who was born in the earlier years of humanity, not being able to have childrens was really a big deal. Saber also acknowledged that point, but now it wasn't that serious anymore as they were couples that refused to have childrens anyway and there was other methods to have childrens but Alexander wasn't aware of that.

What Alexander realized was that Shirou didn't understand his feeling for Sakura yet. The white-haired knight noticed the interactions between the two a long time ago and it seemed that Sakura was blocked by her situation and Shirou was simply too dense.

Someone rang at the door and Shirou stood up with difficulty and marched towards the entrance to see who it was.

He opened the door and saw Rin Tohsaka, looking really angry at him in front of the door. Without hesitation he closed back the door.
