Chapter 199: Shirou Goes to War
Breaking through the barrier of the red side's three knights, the rest of the black berserker's journey was unobstructed, and it was so smooth that it made people suspicious.
There are no defenses, no servants to block them, and there is even only one road, as if the vampires walking on this path are guests on their way to the feast.
However, the vampire knows that he is not a guest at all, but an enemy, which makes Red's behavior very problematic.
Without a defensive technique, it can be said that you can concentrate on transferring the Great Holy Grail, and if you don't have time to set it up, then it won't make sense if you don't have a servant to stop it.
Of the six surviving horsemen on the red side, in addition to the three horses blocked by the Black Assassin, there are also three horses, namely Saber, Caster, and Assassin. Caster, who is in charge of transferring the Great Holy Grail, aside, where the hell are Saber and the Assassin, and what are they doing? Are they lurking in the dark waiting to strike a fatal blow to themselves?
It's a pity, now I have no vital points, even if the sneak attack is successful, I can recover quickly, as long as I find an opportunity to kill one or two of them, I can force the Great Holy Grail to be activated, and my and Danic's wishes can be fulfilled.
Yes, the Great Chalice can be force-activated. This is one of the results of Darnik's research over the past 60 years, and it is also his secret card. Originally, the Great Holy Grail required the death of six servants to have the function of a wishing machine, but after Darnik's improvement, this number was reduced to two. Of course, the scale of the wish also diminishes with the absence of the Servant's Spirit.
Although it is quite risky compared to a step-by-step start, it is not so much to care about in order to achieve your wishes.
Darnik's wish is to break the fate of the decline of the Thousand Worlds Tree Clan, and to continue and prosper for a long time.
Vlad III's wish is to wash away the stigma, that is, to completely separate the image of the vampire Dracula from the heroic Vlad III.
The former only affects the members of the Thousand Worlds Tree family, while the latter only needs to operate the spirit base on the Throne of the Heroic Spirit, which is a small-scale wish.
Now that one Servant has been killed, and one more has been killed, the activation conditions have been fulfilled, and the two wishes will be doubled at most, which is why the vampire wants to kill one or two more horses.
As for the missing ride, it was left for himself. Now that the vampire Dracula and Vlad III have separated, there is no need for his filthy existence to exist any longer, and he uses his soul as a final sacrifice.
I just feel a little right to play the black assassin who still supports me in the end.,If it's too late.,Make amends to him.γ
The vampire, who was thinking so, appeared in front of him.
The magic that kept pouring out of the door told him that the great chalice of his dreams was behind the door.
Without hesitation, he opened the door and found that it was indeed the place to be expected. In front of you, a wide staircase made of sun-dried brick stretched straight downward, and a huge structure stood in the form of piercing through the top floor.
It was the Great Holy Grail of Fuyuki, a universal wish machine full of devastating light.
ββ¦β¦ Ahhhh β
With a dreamlike sound in his throat, he finally arrived here, and the next thing to do was to deal with the servants who were guarding here.
"Come out, don't hide. β
"I'm not hiding, I'm just giving the first guest here a chance to see the Great Holy Grail up close, which is a small bonus. β
With a condescending voice in the midst of decadence, a bewitching beauty in a black evening dress appeared in front of the Great Holy Grail.
I didn't feel the breath, and it suddenly appeared, and the job placement was obvious.
"Red Assassin. A hint of clarity appeared in the vampire's red eyes, "It seems that it is not only our Assassin, but you are also an outlier among Assassins." β
"Nope. The woman shook her head, "You're wrong, there is an essential difference between me and the Black Assassin, he is not good at it, and I don't need it." β
"Oh~ This tone, this attitude, you must also be the king somewhere. β
"Yes, my name is Semiramis, and welcome to my garden, lord of Romania, or lord of the past. β
I don't know if it's because of the bearing of the same king, or because he has full confidence in his strength, the Red Assassin reported his real name.
"It turned out to be the Empress of Assyria. It is indeed a king worthy of the garden in the sky - as a burial place. β
"Yes, as your burial place. β
Both kings expressed their unwavering attitude in words, and the vampire looked in the other direction.
"The rest of the people come out too, and let Yu solve you once and for all. β
"Please don't. β
With a performative voice, the pompous man leaned out from the stairs beside him.
"I'm just a writer, I don't fight. I just wanted to come and meet Dracula, the classic image of the source of vampire literatureβ"
Before he could finish speaking, a rafter with a bloody breath hit the place where the man was, and if it wasn't for someone pulling him, he would have been pierced through the chest by the rafter.
"Ah, it's dangerous, it's dangerous, it's so impatient, it's worthy of a tyrant. β
"Caster, say a word. β
The man who grabbed him was a brown-skinned teenager, who complained with a wry smile.
"What you regard as a classic literary image is a stigma that must be washed away for Vlad III, and your actions are an insult to him. β
"Is that so? It is indeed my fault, and I must apologize for it. β
Red Caster Shakespeare put his hand on his chest and bowed deeply.
The vampire, who still retained the will of Vlad III, snorted coldly and urged impatiently:
"That's all for the gossip, there's no time to waste, you two can go up together, plus Saber who doesn't know where to hide. β
"No, no, you made three mistakes, O Grand Duke of Romania. β
Shakespeare cocked up his fingers as he spoke.
"First, my generation has already said that my generation will not fight. β
"Second, Saber is not here. β
"Thirdly, your opponent is not my generation and Her Majesty the Empress, but our Imperial Lord, Father Shirou. β
"Master?"
Even though the killing attempt was no longer contained, the vampire was still puzzled by the choice of Shakespeare and Semiramis.
If the Servant does not go to war and let the Master fight, what is this doing? Send him to death? Or is there some conspiracy? Or does the red side think that the victory is in hand, and has already begun to tilt internally?
Sensing the vampire's doubts, the boy named Shirou smiled and said:
"You'd better not underestimate me too much, I'm strong. If I were you, I would turn around and run, and if it was a little later, I really wouldn't be able to escape. β
As if provoked by Shirou's attitude, a hint of hideousness appeared on the vampire's face.
Let him escape? Facing the Ottoman Turkish army, he never thought of escaping, let alone facing a mere modern magician.
It was decided that his blood would be used to wash away this shame.
The vampire made no secret of his murderous intentions, taking a step forward in order to accelerate.
