Chapter 22: Artoria's Oath
Shinji said.
He told Artoria about the fact of the traverser, about his peculiarities.
It's not that he wants to make a big news in the moment, or that he breaks the jar after knowing Artoria's identity, but because it's the best choice.
Artoria's personality meant that she would not lie about such a thing, and she said that if the two major forces were focused on the Holy Grail War, there would be no fake. Now that the restraining force is concerned, the identity of Shinji's traverser must have been known by the restraining force for a long time.
Although judging from Artoria's performance, it seems that the inhibition power does not tell her the details of Shinji, but not saying it now does not mean that she will not say it in the future. Taking a step back, even if the restraining force remains silent from beginning to end, the exchange dream derived from the master-slave contract between the two is also very likely to expose Shinji's details, after all, Skaha directly browsed Shinji's past life through the contract, and Shinji also watched Skaha's life in a hurry.
In other words, sooner or later, Artoria will know the details of Shinji. Rather than waiting for the future to be exposed and affect the relationship between the two, it is better to speak out directly and show that you are open, which will lower Artoria's vigilance.
Of course, Shinji had another option - to follow the example of several lancer lords and order Artoria to commit suicide. However, this does not make any sense, with the two major inhibitory forces as the backing, Artoria will not necessarily be subject to the Command Curse, even if he really commits suicide, the inhibitory force can send other observers, and even because of this move, he will judge that Shinji is a threat and directly send a guardian to wipe it out.
Therefore, Shinji made this seemingly silly choice.
To Shinji's surprise, Artoria's reaction was unusually flat, except for a slight surprise in her emerald eyes, and a faint "oh": "It turns out that Shinji, you're from a parallel world." There was no other reaction.
For such an Artoria, Shinji is a little uncomfortable. In her impression, if she encounters something she doesn't agree with, she will put on a rather fierce posture, even if it is someone close to her.
"Well, how did you react like that. I'm not sure, I'm your target, why aren't you nervous at all?"
"No, Shinji, you're wrong. Artoria's fur swayed from side to side, as if shaking her head in place of her master, "I know you're uncertain, but you're not my target. โ
"Why do you say that?" Shinji didn't understand.
Artoria asked rhetorically, "It's very simple, Shinji, do you have the ability to pose a major threat to humanity and the planet?"
"Nope. Shinji suddenly realized.
Indeed, among the creatures on the earth, Shinji is already very strong, but such a powerful him and the planet under his feet are still not worth mentioning compared to the entire human race. Even if he had obtained the Holy Grail, he would not have the ability to induce a repressive alert. Not to mention that he doesn't have any anti-planetary and anti-human thoughts in his heart, if someone really wants to be bad for the planet or humanity, Shinji will definitely stand up and stop it.
"So, you're not my target. "Not only is it not, but it will help me, my instincts tell me." โ
"Thank you for your trustโwho would it be if it wasn't me?"
Shinji thought as he chattered.
The Thousand Realms Tree's group of sub-masters were the first to rule out, and there was nothing worth paying attention to in terms of strength or goal.
So it's the red side, and the red side has seven masters participating in the battle this time.
The Lion Tribulation Realm is essentially no different from the Thousand Worlds Tree, and can be ignored.
Five of the six Masters remained...... Well, even a setting party like Shinji, a senior moon chef, didn't remember their names.
No way, in "Fate apocrypha", these five masters are a tragedy, and there is a name and a few lines, and there is no description of their appearance (in the anime and comics, it is better, and the face is revealed).
Although these five people are set up to be well-known combat magicians in the magic world, before they can exert their abilities, they are manipulated by the last master of the red side, and the whole process is soy sauce.
So is it the mastermind behind this Holy Grail War, the last master of the red side, Shiro Yanfeng, that is, Shiro Amakusa?
His wish to be fulfilled through the Holy Grail is the relief of all mankind, and the way is to use the Holy Grail to cause miracles and turn all mankind into immortal beings, so as to achieve the elimination of war and world peace. He had been planning for this for more than sixty years, and he had prepared for it, and almost all the factors were taken into account. As long as nothing else, humanity will soon be redefined.
Although he did not directly destroy the human race, there is undoubtedly a great risk in changing the way the entire human race exists, and no one knows whether the human race will prosper or die once it does not grow old or die, which is enough to arouse Alayya's alarm.
It takes immeasurable magic to transform the form of existence of all human beings, and it may dry up the spiritual veins of the entire world, which also has a huge impact on the earth, and it is not impossible to attract Gaia's attention.
And in "Fate apocrypha", the male protagonist Ziggy is able to stop Amakusa Shiro may be secretly helping by the power of restraint. Otherwise, how could an artificial human like Zig, who had just been born for a short time, survive many disasters without dying, and be blessed by misfortune, and finally defeat the dominant Amakusa Shiro?
This time, due to his own incurrence, Ziggy's various opportunities were destined to be affected, so the restraining force changed its strategy and sent Artoria, and he would assist Artoria in the calculation of the restraining force. Perhaps Vlad III's change from a lancer to a berserker was also an intervention by the restraining forces, in order to allow Artoria to take the position of lancer.
In this role, Artoria did not possess the prestigious Sword of Oath of Victory, but possessed a Noble Phantasm that was more powerful than the sword. The symbolic meaning of this treasure is to protect human reason, and it is perfect for dealing with Amakusa Shiro who intends to subvert human reason.
In this way, everything can be explained, but why do I still feel that there is something wrong in my heart? What other factors have I not thought of? Are the five names of the unnamed masters?
"Shinji, Shinji, have you thought of anything?" asked Artoria on the other side, looking at the Master's frowning brow.
"It's a little bit of an idea, but it's not mature, so it's better to start the Holy Grail War step by step, and it's not too late to draw conclusions when you have enough information. โ
Shinji didn't end up revealing his thoughts and thoughts, which were all based on the judgment of "Fate apocrypha", which is difficult to explain and difficult to guarantee accuracy, but that didn't stop him from making a commitment to the knight king he had loved for ten years.
"Artoria, no matter who your ultimate goal is, I will stand by your side and fight with you. โ
"In the name of the knight, I will definitely get the Holy Grail for you!"
Artoria's expression was solemn and serious, this was the knight's faith, this was the knight's oath, and that firmness and awe-inspiring were overwhelming.
PS: Even the way of human existence has changed, isn't it subverting human reason?
PS2:, you don't feel right, that's because there is a black hand that hides deeper than you besides you.
