No matter how strong the other party is, Saber is burning with unyielding fighting spirit in his heart. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Only these two are opponents who can't lose. The Holy Grail must not be given to them. Archer's words don't make sense at all, and Rider's wish can only be seen as a warrior's wish. And that was only the beginning of all human desires. Compared with their desires, the desires of the saber cannot but be said to be nobler than theirs.

"Hey, I said Saber, tell me your wishes too. ”

Rider finally turned to Saber. At any time, the desire in her heart has never wavered.

My way of king is my pride. Still raising his head, the Knight King looked directly at the two Heroic Spirits.

"I want to save my hometown. I want to change the fate of Britain's demise. ”

"Drinking together......"

Tosaka Tokitomi, who was sitting alone in the underground workshop, sighed again at Rider's strange behavior.

"Is it really okay to leave Archer alone?"

The Demon Dao communication machine brought Yan Feng Qili's slightly stiff words, and Shi Chen smiled bitterly:

"No way".

"Since it was a meeting of the kings, how could he ignore the questions that were directed at him?"

As long as they haven't figured out the true strength of the hero king Gilgamesh, that's fine. Luckily, tonight they were fighting at the wine table. As long as he does not draw his sword and go to war, Archer will not easily reveal the "king's treasure".

Being able to grasp the situation in the distant Einzberen in his own workshop naturally owes the report of the Assassin who was hiding there, and then through the transfer of Qili, Shi Chen can understand it so clearly. After the rider destroyed the forest barrier, the Assassin also kept his breath blocked and successfully infiltrated the city.

The Holy Grail War has entered its fourth night, and Shi Chen has not yet set foot in the deep mountain town mansion. He had been staying at his mansion for days to inquire about the Holy Grail War. And the situation of some of the masters who have been hidden for the time being, he has also investigated almost everything.

His focus now is on the Rider conquest of King Iskandar and his master, Weber Welwitt.

These two men had not fought any other servants, and little was known about them. What's more serious is that because of the Assassin's miss, the fact that Yan Feng Qili and the Assassin are still alive was exposed.

Therefore, Qili is especially careful not to approach the Rider easily. However, even if you use the breath cutting skill, its effect is still limited. Don't look at Rider with a big grin, he actually has a much sharper sense than the other servants. When eavesdropping on the conversation between the three of them this time, Qili also specifically instructed the Assassin not to be discovered by the rider.

"That's right, Qili. The difference between rider and archer's combat power is ...... What do you think?"

"I think the point is whether the rider has a more powerful trump card than the 'Shenwei Wheel'. ”

"Hmmm......"

Herein lies the problem. Compared to the other four servants, only the Rider was the most disturbing.

The master who dominates the berserker has expended a great deal of power, and the caster is under threat from all sides, and even the workshop has been destroyed. These two groups of people are waiting for them to fend for themselves.

Gilgamesh will not lose to the injured Saber, and Lancer remains unscathed, but his original master is out of action due to a serious injury. Being commanded by a subordinate magician is no longer to be feared.

In other words, there is no need to send Assassin to spy on the four groups of people except Rider.

“…… Now, we need to try that. ”

"I see. I understand. ”

Needless to say, Qili on the other side of the telegraph had already understood Shi Chen's intentions.

In order to get your hands on valuable information, you can now send Assassins to test it.

Rider and his master are unprepared for a feast, and now is a good opportunity to raid. At this time, the important thing is not the victory, but the difference in combat strength between the enemy and the enemy. It would be best if the rider could be dealt with smoothly, and even if it couldn't, it would be enough if it could force him into a desperate situation and force him to use the strongest trick.

"If you want all the assassins to assemble, I'm afraid it will take about ten minutes. ”

"Very well, give the order. Although it was a big gamble, luckily we had nothing to lose even if we failed. ”

For Shi Chen, the Assassin is just one of the means used to capture the Holy Grail, a tool that can be thrown away when used. This understanding is also fully reflected in his disciple Yan Feng Qili.

After Shi Chen finished speaking, he changed his sitting posture and poured another cup of tea into the cup. He happily sniffed the scent of black tea and waited for the results of the actions he had ordered.

——————————————————————

After Saber resolutely finished speaking, everyone fell silent for a long time.

The first to wonder in silence was Saber himself.

Even if her words are full of momentum, the other party is not a person who will bow his head easily. Even if it was unexpected, it was a very easy thing to understand.

Clearly, there is nothing strange about it, this is her way of kingship. Whether it's praise or rebuttal, someone should bring it up right away. But—no one spoke.

"—I say, Knight King, I can't be misheard. ”

Rider finally broke the silence, and for some reason, his face was full of doubt.

"You mean to 'change fate'? that is, to turn history upside down?"

"Yes. No matter how difficult it may be to fulfill a wish, it will be fulfilled as long as you have the Almighty Holy Grail—"

Saber asserted proudly. By now, Saber finally knew why the atmosphere between the two of them was so strange - the scene suddenly froze.

"Ah, Saber? I want to make sure...... That destruction of England must have been a matter of your time, when you ruled?"

"Yes, so I can't forgive myself. ”

Saber's tone became more determined when he heard this.

"That's why I'm very unwilling to change that ending! Because I led to that ending......"

Unexpectedly, someone burst out laughing. It was a vulgar laughter that defied any understanding, and it came from the mouth of the archer, who radiated a golden glow.

In the face of this great humiliation, Saber's face was full of anger. Her most cherished thing was ridiculed by Archer.

“…… Archer, what's so funny. ”

Not minding Saber's anger, the Golden Hero replied intermittently with a smile:

"—Claiming to be a king—being praised by all the people—how can such a person be 'unwilling'? Ha! How can this not make people laugh? Masterpiece! Saber, you are the best clown!"

Beside Archer, who was laughing, Rider also frowned, and looked at Saber with some displeasure.

"Wait—you wait for the Knight King, do you want to deny the history you've created?"

Saber, who has never had any doubts about his ideals, will naturally not be asked by him at this moment.

"Exactly. Am you surprised? Is it ridiculous? As a king, the country for which I gave my life was destroyed. I mourn, what's wrong?"

She was answered by another burst of laughter from Archer.

"Hey, do you hear me, this little girl who calls herself the Knight King...... What do you say, 'dedicate yourself to the country'!"

Archer replied to Rider's deepening silence. This is the same insult to Saber as being ridiculed.

"I don't know what's funny. As a king, you should naturally stand up and work for the prosperity of your country!"

"You're wrong. ”

Rider firmly and solemnly dismissed her words.

"It is not the king who gives himself, but the state and the people who give everything they have to the king. Make no mistake about that. ”

"What did you say—"

Saber couldn't hold back her anger any longer, and she shouted.

Rider, Archer, you are making a big mistake to be the king!"

"Definitely. But we're not just tyrants, we're heroes. ”

Rider replied calmly, not even moving an eyebrow.

"So Saber, if a king is not satisfied with the results of his governance, it only means that he is a dumb king, worse than a tyrant. ”

Unlike Archer, who constantly mocks Saber, Rider fundamentally denies her. Saber furrowed his eyebrows and retorted in a sharp tone:

"Iskander, you...... Aren't you really the slightest bit reluctant to split the empire you created into four parts? Don't you want to do it all over again and save the country?"

"I don't want to. ”

The King of Conquest replied immediately, his chest held high, and he looked directly into the stern gaze of the Knight King.

"If my decision, and that of my courtiers, leads to such an outcome, then destruction is inevitable. I will mourn and I will shed tears, but I will not regret it. ”

"How could it be ......?"

"Not to mention an attempt to subvert history! This stupid act is an insult to all human beings in the era I have constructed!"

In response to Rider's arrogant words, Saber denied:

"You say this only based on the glory of the warrior. The people don't think so, what they need is salvation. ”

"You mean they want the king's salvation?"

Rider shrugged his shoulders and laughed.

"I don't understand, what's the point of this kind of thing?"

"This is the duty of a king!"

This time it was Saber's turn to speak proudly:

"Right rule, right order, that's what all subjects expect. ”

"Are you the 'right' slave then?"

"If you want to say that, you can do that. Only by dedicating oneself to one's ideals is worthy of being a king. ”

Without a hint of doubt, the young Knight King nodded.

"Through the king, people are able to understand law and order. The king should not embody something that will disappear with the death of the king, but something more honorable. ”

Looking at Saber, who was still resolute, the rider on the side shook his head as if he was pitying her.

"It's not a path of survival that people would choose. ”

"Yes. If you are born as a king, you can't expect to live the life of ordinary people. ”

In order to become a perfect monarch, in order to become the embodiment of ideals, she is willing to give up her body and throw away her personal feelings. The life of a young girl named Artoria changed forever the moment she pulled the sword out of the rock. Since then, she has become synonymous with undefeated legends, hymns, and dreams.

There have been pains, there have been troubles, but there is the glory of victory. Her unchanging belief still supports her sword-holding arm.

"King of Conquest, a man like you who cares only about yourself will not understand my faith. You're just a bully who gets carried away by lust!"

Saber snapped. The scolded rider immediately widened his eyes.

"A king without desire is better than a vase. ”

Rider's shouts of rage, combined with his massive size, made him even more terrifying.

"Saber, you just said 'dedicate yourself to your ideals.'" Indeed, you used to be an incorruptible saint, holy to the point that no one else could match. But who wants to look forward to martyrdom for their ideals? Who wants to think day and night about the so-called saints, who can only comfort the people, but cannot guide the people. Only by showing desire and eulogizing the ultimate glory can we lead the country and the people to the right path. ”

After drinking the wine in the cup, the conqueror king corrected.

"To be a king is to have stronger desires than anyone else, to be more bold than anyone else, and to be more irritable than anyone else. He should be a human being who is pure and turbid, more real than anyone else. Only in this way can the courtiers be convinced by the king, and the people will have such a longing in their hearts, 'It would be nice if I were the king'!"

"Such governance...... So where is the justice?"

"Nope. There is no such thing as justice in the way of kings, so there is no remorse. ”

“……”

He asserted it too harshly, and Saber was furious.

Both take making the people happy as the basic criterion, but the two have very different ideas.

On one side is praying for peace.

On the one hand, there is hope for prosperity.

The king who suppressed the troubled times and the king who was involved in the war, naturally the two could not have the same philosophy.

Rider smiled and said heartily.

"O king who bears the name of a knight, your righteousness and ideals may have saved the country and the people for a while, so your name has been praised to this day. However, you don't know what happened to those who were saved. ”

"You say—what?"

Bloodstained Hill of the Sunset.

The sight revived in Saber's mind again.

"You have been trying to 'save' your subjects, but you have never 'guided' them. They don't know what the 'king's desire' is. Thou hast left behind your lost subjects, and thou hast left behind a sacred gesture to revel in thy own petty ideals.

So you're not a good king. You just want to be a 'king' for the sake of the people, a little girl who cocoons herself in order to be that kind of idol. ”

"I ......"

There are many words that I want to refute, but every time I open my mouth, the scene I once witnessed in Cam Ranh Bay comes to mind.

Corpses were strewn all over the field, and rivers of blood flowed like rivers. There lay her courtiers, her friends, and her relatives.

She had learned of the prophecy the moment she drew her sword from the rock. She knew it meant ruin, and she had already come to her senses.

But, why......

She was so surprised when she saw this tragedy with her own eyes, and she felt that there was nothing she could do but pray.

There are also magicians who predict that it is almost impossible to subvert it. But she still thought if a miracle could happen......

A dangerous thought took over Saber's mind.

If you don't protect Britain as a savior. but the words that ravaged Britain as an overlord -

Troubled times will only become more chaotic because of the scourge of war. First of all, this is not the path of kingship she pursues. And no matter what angle she stands, she named Artoria will not choose this option.

But if he did do that, which would be more tragic than the Battle of the Sword Fence......

"Enough is enough, Sister Lily!" Luo Fengyun snorted coldly, pulling Saber's attention back.

"Whether it is right or wrong, whether it is right or wrong, stick to your own beliefs, this is the real king! The king will take responsibility, the king will make the law, and the king will protect everything!"

"Yes......" Saber was awakened by Luo Fengyun's words, and her eyes returned to clarity, "No matter what, my royal way is right in my opinion!

The blue armor on Saber's body is rendered white, and her eyes are more determined!

At this time, a gaze made everyone look at that person, a black trench coat, golden eyes and black hair, who was sitting quietly watching the battle of several kings.

"It's you......" Archer nodded, then tilted his head away.

The Golden Servant had left Saber in the hands of the Rider from the very beginning. I sat on the side and drank leisurely.

A moment later, Alice Phil and Webb also noticed something strange in the air around them. Although I can't see it, I can feel a very strong killing intent on my skin.

Strange white objects emerged from the moonlit atrium. One after the other, pale faces appeared in the atrium like flowers blooming. The pale was the color of cold, dry bones.

Skull mask and black robes. The deserted atrium gradually surrounded by this strange group.

assassin……

Rider and Webb weren't the only ones who knew they were alive. Saber and Alice Fell also learn about this during a conversation with Kiritsugu on Warehouse Street.

The Assassin wasn't just the one who was killed at Tosaka Mansion in the first place. The truth is that there were several assassins involved in the Holy Grail War, but that number was unusually high. They all wore masks and black robes, and their physiques were different. There are giant men, there are emaciated types, there are short childlike people, and there are women's figures.

They have been surrounded by assassins at some point!
