Twenty - Don't think that there is a war-free card without a sense of existence
"I see. With the assassin dead, the berserker out of sight, the Caster yet to appear, and Archer and Saber in an alliance, are the only two men left joining forces?"
"Well, that's it. What do you think?"
As always, the style of the king is implemented. Ignoring the fact that Webb, who was behind him, his whole face was blushing when he heard the proposal, Iskandar waved his hand and looked happy in anticipation of an answer.
"Well, yes, yes, it's a charming mention for me" Seeing Iskandar's sunny expression, even his thumb was raised, and he was almost in his own answer, Dilumudo couldn't help but smile bitterly. However, just as Iskandar was almost about to burst out laughing, Dilumudo suddenly changed his words, "But, unfortunately, it's not up to me to decide whether or not to cooperate with you. As a knight, I will only obey the orders of the deed master. Master, what do you think?"
Originally, he looked like he was about to agree, but at the most critical moment, he threw the decision back into the hands of his own deed owner, Kenneth, and seeing Dilumudo give such an explanation, Iskander's expression immediately darkened. At the same time, as expected, Kenneth's answer came from above.
"Of course I refused! As a nobleman, how is it possible to be reduced to fellowship with filthy thieves and impudent savages? Even if I am on the same side, it will only damage my reputation!"
Behind the voice, there is still an indescribable disgust for his own students. Or rather, the situation has been exacerbated by the criticism that Iskandar and Saber have just made in unison. Filled with resentment towards his students and boundless confidence in himself, Kenneth continued, "Furthermore, even if it is an alliance, the combination of Saber and Archer is not invulnerable, and as long as the right tactics and strategies are used, they can still win." On the other hand, I don't see any benefit in joining forces with someone like Mr. Webber and his Savage Heroic Spirit, other than that it will hold me back, so I beg your pardon for refusing. β
"So do you hear me clearly? Conquer the King. With a helpless smile that I had expected to look like this, Dilumudo shrugged at Iskandar.
"Ah, I couldn't hear it more clearly. However, I say you, Lancer" Although he had already roughly guessed what the outcome would be, and did not hide the frustration in his words, Iskandar sighed and lobbied with a final effort, "We, we are not limited by the Covenant Master and the Curse like normal Holy Grail Wars. It's rare to come in the true body of a heroic spirit, and your own will is the most important thing, right? Is it really necessary to obey the so-called deed owner in everything? Even if it's a stupid decision?"
"I don't think you agree, but for us, the knight's oath is absolute." Without a hint of confusion, and responding to Iskandar's question with a rocky firmness, Dilumudo replied with a smile, "Loyalty to my lord and obedience to one of his commands is the embodiment of my will." I will appreciate your kindness, and conquer Your Excellency. β
"Well, since you've said so, what else can I say?" Seeing that the matter had become a foregone conclusion, Iskandar had no choice but to smile bitterly and spread his hands, "Let's do our own thing." Don't you regret it?"
"Hey, you're bothered."
A short reply, with respect and gratitude, symbolizes the breakdown of the negotiations.
As the session ended, Webb breathed a sigh of relief, and the two Heroic Spirits turned their attention back to the battle between Saber and the Black Knight in the middle of the field.
It was just a muffled sound of a blunt object landing in the corner, but it immediately attracted the attention of the two
"Bang ---!!"
β!!!!β
β?!!!!β
Without warning at all, a muffled sound of a blunt object hitting the ground suddenly came from a corner, quickly attracting the attention of everyone present, even the two people in the battle.
With the sound of a clash of blades, the distance between the Black Knight and Saber widened again, and at this time, everyone's eyes just fell on the source of the sound.
In the light of the moon, I saw a figure in a black cloak lying motionless on the ground, and a mask covered with a skeleton could be faintly seen on his face.
However, this is not very important.
Because in any case, Gilgamesh's killing of the assassin yesterday was too dramatic, and the more intelligent people basically have a skeptical and wait-and-see attitude towards the fact that the assassin is dead, or even completely negative, so it is not surprising to see that the assassin is still alive now. In addition, even if this point is left aside, more importantly, with the exception of Emiya Kiritsugu, who believes that they are compatible with each other, the vast majority of people do not pay much attention to the assassins themselves who can only fight by assassination, and will be out as soon as they fight head-on. To put it cruelly, in their opinion, in fact, whether the assassin existed or not is not a point, so it is not surprising to see that the assassin is still alive at this moment.
In everyone's minds, what really deserves attention is not that the assassin is still alive or knocked down again, but who did it!
After all, no matter how weak the assassin is, he is still a heroic spirit-level being, and in short, it is not a Cheng dΓΉ that ordinary people can cope with. However, even so, this assassin who had been hiding and peeking from the side since I didn't know when he was still put down silently! Moreover, it is based on the premise that everyone present is not aware of it!
No matter how weak it is, it is still a heroic spirit, and from the fact that there is no sign of fighting at all, I am afraid that it can still be won within one blow! The strength of being able to take down a Heroic Spirit in one blow can be imagined, at least at the level of a Heroic Spirit!
Extrapolating from someone who hasn't shown up yet? The only person who meets the conditions of this strength is Caster, who has not yet appeared. However, if you think about it carefully, Caster doesn't belong to the rank that can be on the battlefield in the first place, let alone concealment or something, and has nothing to do with Caster's position (workshop) in the first place! At such a close distance, does Caster really have the ability to knock out the opponent with a single blow on the premise that the assassin who is a secret expert will not be detected?
With such a question in mind, everyone present looked at the assassin in unison.

What caught everyone's eye was a pretty figure wearing a red jacket and a blue kimono
P.S.1: How can I say it, thank you again to all the people who are worried about the author's physical condition, but the author is also a temperate person after all, and if the physical condition is really deviant, I will not force myself to update it (like last week, I decisively asked for leave). The reason why I will resume the change now is mainly because the situation has improved a lot (blood pressure is basically much more normal than last week), not because it is simply because the schedule is slowing down to make this decision (because it has been delayed enough but dead), if the situation is not problematic, it is basically the official change, so there is no need to worry too much.
