The Holy Grail War, a bloody battle between seven magicians for a universal wishing machine called the Holy Grail.

However, no one could have imagined that the final game of the Sixth Holy Grail War would be such a happy scene.

Tsukahara Mingshi, Rohia, Tosaka Shirou, Abner, Artoria, and the five of them now live together in Abner's magic studio. Obviously, they are the last two heroes of the Holy Grail War, as long as they decide the winner, they can win the Holy Grail, and according to the general people's thinking, the competition for the first place should be the most intense...... However......

Not really.

Everyone was a happy scene.

Shirou was trying to prepare lunch with ingredients from the fridge, and Abner was careful enough to prepare food for all the bases in advance. However, you can't really expect a magician who rarely cooks to prepare a good dish.

Grocery shopping is a university question, don't look at Abner as a good magician, but when it's the turn to buy groceries, it's a novice among novices. Although the price of vegetables is the same, the quality can be good and bad!

If you are an expert in grocery shopping, you can buy the best quality goods for the same amount of money. One of the more common misconceptions is that the bigger the better, and the smoother and smoother the better. Depending on the way you eat, the ingredients you need to choose are also different. Unfortunately, Abner didn't understand it at all, he just thought based on common sense: Is it better to have smooth and flat vegetables? It is estimated that there is no bargaining at all, and he is the kind of businessman's favorite customer.

Well......

Shirou sighed as he quickly cut the vegetables. Now Abner can't eat solid food, so he's going to make curry, and although Abner can't swallow rice, he can swallow curry juice, and besides, all of you here are Japanese, and Japanese people are generally willing to eat curry.

It's strange to say, but it's a food invented in India, but how can it be so popular in Japan?

With this in mind, Shirou threw the curry ingredients into it, because there were no curry cubes bought, so Shirou could only use curry powder to flavor it, which was very good for the chef's level.

"Well, that's good, let's just keep the momentum going. ”

He muttered to himself, doing his best to prepare food for the crowd.

On the other side, Saber was sitting on the foot of the room, dressed in her daily attire, which was Shirou's usual service, a pure white shirt, a monochrome blue dress, and black stockings that made her delicate calves tighter, revealing a sense of strength. She remained in a kneeling position, her hands flat on her knees, her waist straight.

This is a technique known as meditation in Japanese martial arts, and Saber maintains this pose.

I wonder if it's because England has similar technology, or because Saber wants to learn about Japanese culture?

Mina Tosaka lay on the soft bed with no interest.

These days, I'm miserable myself! It's mud and being tied up by someone or something, so it's easy to have a place to sleep, and I have to worry about whether it will be affected by the attack of a fire demon god...... Now, finally, I can finally get a good night's sleep!!

But......

Mina Tosaka silently looked up from the bed, revealing a pair of large, pitiful eyes.

Who can sleep in broad daylight!!

She could only bury her head in the soft futon, and collapsed lazily on the bed, not wanting to move.

Now she just wants to hurry up and end all this nightmare and return to Japan.

However, looking at the chaos now, not to mention international routes, even domestic routes are estimated to be under martial law, such a group of people of unknown origin still want to fly back?

It's better to have that option!

As a result, she could only lie on the bed boredly, muttering weakly and broken thoughts.

"It's boring......"

Now she wants to take a good rest and sweep away all the fatigue.

Lohia vanished, and with her Assassin-like espionage, it was all too easy to avoid the crowd without even noticing. Combined with her previous appearance, probably, it was very tangled.

After all, in her point of view, she should be a complete heroic spirit, but as a result, she found that she was just a fake, and this painful feeling was not humane to outsiders, nor could it be understood by outsiders.

Saber understands this feeling, but in fact, she is confused herself.

Fortunately, she knew her purpose, understood her beliefs, and knew that by her side, there was a Shirou who would support her, and she was his sword. As long as Shirou is still around, she won't be confused. It doesn't matter if he's Artoria or not, whether he's the invincible King Arthur or not, even if he's just a fake thing that uses the name of the Knight King and is projected by Shirou's inner landscape, it doesn't matter. As Shirou's sword by himself, it would be good enough.

But if it's any other Heroic Spirit...... I guess I'm disappointed.

Actually, if it weren't for the fact that it could be spiritualized, Saber wouldn't have discovered this problem, would he?

Archer, she probably needs a moment to be quiet.

And Tsukahara Mingshi is in Abner's room.

The teacher who used to be elegant and talkative, who liked to laugh and like to give examples, now lies on the hospital bed with a pale face, and the temperature in the room is very high because of the bonfire, but even so, Abner's body is still as cold as ice, and the skin of his fingers will stick to Abner's skin because of the cold just by touching his hand, and he has to use force to tear it off.

"Is it Tsukahara?"

Probably, he was awakened by the pain of Tsukahara opening his fingers just now, Abner reluctantly opened his eyes and asked.

"Ah...... Hit, excuse me......"

"It doesn't matter. It's just that the body can't move, and it's okay to think. ”

He tried to squeeze out a smile, but unfortunately, the skin on his face did not obey him at all, and he could not move.

“…… I'm sorry...... Teacher ......"

"Why do you apologize? It's not your fault. ”

Abner listened to his apology, his tone calm.

"It is my own will to choose to participate in the battle as a master. It was because I longed for the Holy Grail and wanted to reach the root that this tragedy would have happened. It's okay with other people. Even without you, I would inevitably have to confront the Flame Demon God. When the time comes, it will only get worse. ”

If it weren't for Archer, if it wasn't for Tsukahara Mingshi, at that time, I don't know if I could still join forces with Shirou and fight such an excellent battle?

Delay until the spirit is incarnated, and then, take the opportunity to kill the master, this is what a [orthodox] method of warfare.

"You...... Your injury, it doesn't matter, does it?"

Tsukahara opened his mouth, but in the end, such an unnutritious sentence came out, and he couldn't wait to slap himself: Everyone is lying on the bed, dying, what else do you say [It doesn't matter], right?

"Well, it doesn't matter. It's just that my whole body is cold. Maybe you won't be able to stand up on your own legs for the rest of your life. The magic engraving of the Winifred family...... About four of them will never work, but the rest are minor. If you can find the legendary puppeteer, you might even be able to customize a pair of useful prosthetic limbs, and it will be even more powerful than it is now. ”

Alberner's relaxed tone seemed to tell something indifferent. No, it's really nothing to a magician.

As long as you have a clear brain, as long as you still have your own magic mark, then you can continue to explore the truth of the Demon Dao, then it doesn't matter. Body? doesn't matter.

Legend has it that the best puppeteer who was once designated to seal is like this, making a doll with the exact same specifications as himself, not caring about his own life, and if he dies, he will use the doll to continue to act as his own body......

This kind of magician's crazy spirit of seeking the truth, this kind of practice that even the body and even life can be ignored, this is like a magician!

"Teacher ......"

"Well, don't show that expression. It's a pity that I didn't let you see the handsome side of the teacher. It's such a great unfolding, burning life or something, it sounds handsome, right? Like a hero would do, right?"

“…… Ah, yes, super handsome, the male protagonist will definitely do this kind of thing, whether it's animation, comics, games, for sure, it's going to do it. ”

Tsukahara Mingshi bit his lip hard, and then he could barely hold back his immature cry.

His own teacher was able to sacrifice himself to this point for the Holy Grail War, but looking at himself, he was just joking at first......

"So, as a hero, I'm going to teach you a good lesson now. ”

Abner finally squeezed out a little smile, and this is the style of Abner.

Laugh no matter what happens.

"Tsukahara, if you want to be an excellent person, then don't regret it. Absolutely, don't regret the choice you made. Because, even if you regret it, you won't turn back time, so even if you make a mistake, you can only swallow it and move forward. I am such a person, and now that I think about it, I may have been a little impulsive, overwhelmed and captured by the spirit of the lancer, King Leonidas, and thought to myself: Ah, how nice it would be if I could be like this man? I don't regret it at all, though. Tsukahara, do you regret coming to participate in this Holy Grail War?"

This question made the black-haired teenager stunned.

Myself...... Regret it?

It's okay to be tricked by Karl.

It's okay to be used by Carl.

It's good that so much has happened in between.

In this way, his journey to the Holy Grail War seems to have done nothing at all, and although he has encountered dangers several times, he still has achieved nothing.

Let's put it this way, Tsukahara Mingshi has survived until now only because of good luck.

It's not because he's strong, it's not because he has any powerful schemes, it's just just the right thing.

But......

"I ......"

His lips were dry, and he had a hard time answering.

"I ...... No regrets. ”

Because of this answer, he was ashamed to listen to it.

There are so many reasons for powerlessness, there are so many stupid tricks, and there are obviously so many people who have caused trouble. But...... He didn't regret it.

Because......

It is only by participating in the Holy Grail War that he will realize who Karl is, he will know Mina Tosaka, he will understand, and sometimes, people have to fight, and he will also understand that many times, it is necessary to block life and death.

What's more......

Participated in the Holy Grail War, and only then did he meet Archer, Lohia. The excellent archer who bears the name of Robin Hood, the girl who is incomparably beautiful, gentle, and cold, but actually very loyal to herself.

If you don't participate in the Holy Grail War, you won't be able to meet such a person in your life, right?

Although it is shameless to say so......

However, Tsukahara Mingshi felt from the bottom of his heart that it was really good to be able to summon Rohia!

Even if it is said that he is unambitious and greedy for beauty, he just wants to say that it is great to be able to partner with Lohia.

The most important thing is to be honest with yourself and not lie to yourself.

"I have no regrets about participating in the Holy Grail War. ”

"That's right. This expression is very good. I too, I don't regret it at all, because of King Leonidas's agitation, I would have gambled my life like this. Go ahead and enjoy this time. After returning to the clock tower, I will make up for the missing lessons for you in one go, so get ready. ”

"Ahh......h Only, this is the only one, please raise your noble hand!"
