The scabbard was originally in the hands of Emiya Kiritsugu, who used it to summon Saber to participate in the Fourth Holy Grail War.

Later, in order to protect Alice Phil, it was buried in Alice Phil's body as a concept dress, and returned to Saber during the war. After Saber leaves, Kiritsugu buries Kiritsugu's body in order to heal the black mud erosion.

When Kiritsugu and Maiya leave Fuyuki and go to the war-torn Middle East, Kiritsugu takes her out again and quietly puts her on his daughter's body. It is the greatest hope for the safety of my daughter's life, the strictest protection of the whole world, and something that only strong and sincere ideals can keep.

Ten years ago, it resonated strongly with the noble and foolish ideal of "being a partner in justice" for Emiya Kiritsugu.

Now, she is awakened again by Illya's simple and innocent call, and it is this connection that makes Saber reappear in this home.

Of course, in addition to the connection between the scabbard and Saber, there is another condition - the technique that Kiritsugu carved ten years ago. At that time, Alice Phil, who was a small chalice, was seriously weakened because of absorbing the souls of two servants, and his physical functions were seriously weakened, so he could only lie down in a special technique to recuperate, which is the summoning array that most masters will portray - summoning is just a common name among the masters, and the role of the spell is not only to summon, but also to stabilize the spirit base, speed up the recovery of the slave's magic, etc., and it can also have a stabilizing effect on the small chalice that contains the soul of the servant.

After the end of the Fourth Holy Grail War and until Orange made a new body, Alice Phil mostly stayed in this technique to preserve her soul. After acquiring a new body, Kiritsugu did not erase the technique, and due to the scarcity of uses in the old warehouse, it was well preserved, and to this day, he is awakened by Illya's magic and wishes, opening up the connection between the present world and fantasy.

The girl standing in the summoning circle pressed her hand to her abdomen, and there shone with a light befitting Saber, the ultimate ideal of a king, a treasure of the same name as the legendary elf town "Avalon"!

After ten years of silence, this treasure finally appeared in the world again, in front of Saber.

"Go, Eliya!" the knight maiden said to her new master, her jewel-like eyes filled with nostalgia and anticipation.

"Hmm. Illya nodded vigorously, "That monster ......"

"It's okay, it's me—we're here!"

When the two walked out of the warehouse, the courtyard outside had changed its appearance.

The Giant of Steel is still alive, still using his great power to continue to stir up round after round of storms.

This time, however, the storm failed to wreak havoc as it had done before, and it was firmly imprisoned in the center of the courtyard, a tiny field—a steel cage of black rafters rising from the ground.

For the terrifying giants who can tear down walls and block bullets with their bodies, the iron pillars are nothing, whether they are with an axe and sword or with a strong body, they can easily collapse.

However, there was not only one row of iron pillars blocking him, but ten rows, twenty rows, and it would take some time for even a giant of unparalleled strength to destroy these iron pillars. When he finally cleared the obstacles that stood in the way, a woman in a tight leather suit stood in front of her again.

Compared to giants, the purple woman is only a normal human size, perhaps tall among women, but it is still not worth mentioning compared to giants, so short and fragile that it seems that she can be crushed with a single blow of an axe and sword.

But when the giant really swung the axe and sword, the result was the opposite.

The purple woman, who looked "short and fragile", actually managed to block the giant's axe and sword, without dodging or using any skills, and blocked the giant with strength alone.

“■■■■■■■■■■■■────！”

The Giant who was thwarted let out a furious roar, the first time his attack had been blocked. Even if he was repelled by Saber just now, it was because Saber had a surprise advantage.

The hand holding the axe and sword changed from one hand to two hands, and the muscles that were already clearly lined became more bulging, so obvious that the blood vessels under the skin could be seen.

However, even this did not make the "small" woman take half a step back.

No, not only did it fail to retreat, but instead—

"I won't let you pass, Berserker!

In an indifferent whisper, the woman's waist-length purple hair rose back, and the woman's arms and knees, which had been bent by the downward pressure of the axe and sword, instantly straightened. This instantaneous burst of power flicked away the axe sword that had been cut off on the spot, and also caused the giant's huge body to involuntarily retreat backwards—back to its original position.

At the same time as he retreated, the iron fence that he had violently destroyed was also being quickly repaired. By the time the giant had gained a foothold, the iron pillar had been restored to its original state, and the steel cage was once again complete.

Behind the purple-haired woman, a slightly lighter man stepped out, one hand in the direction of Berserker and a fist in the air.

"Kazikli Bey (King of Execution)!"

What happened next seemed to be a repeat of what had just happened.

The giant used brute force to break the cage, opening a gap and the purple-haired woman quickly blocked it, using more force to block him back. Later, the cage was repaired and Berserker was tied up again.

This has been repeated several times. That's why Saber had time to say so much to Illya, instructing her to take out the scabbard.

"Great liar, it's your !!," exclaimed Illya, who saw the face of the steel cage holder.

"It's all said, don't call me-"

There is only one male who will be called so by Illya.,Shinji Makiri.。 He habitually turned his head and complained, and before he could finish complaining, he was stunned, because of the familiar young girl knight beside Illya.

"-Holy, Artoria!"

"Long time no see. "The maiden knight, Saber, and Artoria have a pure smile.

"Ahh

The first half of the sentence is addressed to Artoria. He didn't expect Artoria to appear at this time, and it was clear that Kiritsugu hadn't returned yet.

The second half of the sentence is because of seeing the scabbard in Illya's hand. It is a relic belonging to Artoria, and this would explain why Artoria appeared. But a new problem came again, in Shinji's cognition, the scabbard should be on Kiritsugu's body, but he didn't expect that he had already given things to his daughter.

Presumably to protect his daughter - with Shinji's understanding of Kiritsugu, the answer was quickly drawn up, and Shinji's expression returned to normal.

Just then, he heard Medusa's anxious voice.

"Shinji be careful, get out of the way!"

PS: That magic circle does have other functions, and Webber put him into the magic circle to speed up the recovery of magic before the decisive battle between the Emperor and Shining.
