Chapter 359: Final Overture
Ignoring the fact that Avalon was taken out of his body, he lay on the ground like a puddle of mud.
Meluaim observes the Avalon that he has taken from Emiya Kiritsugu.
"I can feel the power contained in this item, it is indeed a powerful treasure."
After speaking, he handed the Avalon in his hand to Artoria.
"You give it back to me? But alas, I don't need it anymore. Artoria looked at Avalon as Meluam handed it over, and pushed it back.
"What? Knight King, you want to quit now? As I said, the prologue has just begun. Meluam smiled at Artoria and said meaningfully, handing Avalon to the other again.
"KING, WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?" This time, Artoria did not refuse Meluam's kindness and took Avalon over.
A wave of magic ran down Avalon to moisten Artoria's body, and in an instant Artoria's body stopped collapsing.
However, this is only a palliative approach. Although it can allow Artoria to stay in this world for a while, it can't last long.
However, Artoria's left hand, which had been stabbed by the Extinction Yellow Rose, gradually returned to normal under Avalon's magic.
Meluam walked up to Artoria, looked carefully at the peerless face that was close at hand, and leaned into the other person's ear and whispered.
"The rest of the servants, except for the Assassin, are all kings, that is, the four kings who participated in this Holy Grail War, including you and me. The king of the previous conquest organized a feast of kings, and the king and the hero were judged by wine. But don't you think that makes a lot of sense? If words alone can solve problems peacefully, then why is there war in this world? ”
"If the kings want to convince each other, then use the most primitive method."
"Fight until the other party is served!"
"Originally, the Holy Grail competition was a war, so let's have a grand battle of the four kings between the remaining four kings."
"From ancient times to the present, the king has been defeated. In the feast of kings, the king of conquest and the king of heroes disdain the views of your king, and do not even recognize you as a king. ”
"Then this time in front of them, defeat them with dignity. Then they must have nothing to say. ”
"The winner is king, and the loser is the villain."
Meluaim whispered in Artoria's ear, the heat that spewed out tickled Artoria's ears, and a different kind of emotion grew in her heart. It was a feeling she hadn't had since she pulled out the sword in stone and became king of Britain.
The soldiers adored her, and the Knights of the Twelve Tables revered her. No one had ever been so close to her.
Meluam's suggestion also made her a little moved. The kings used their fists to convince each other.
Although the Knight King loves peace and does not yearn for war, the Knight is never afraid of challenges.
Holding back the thought of licking on the jade-like earlobe, Meluaim looked at Artoria's jade-beautiful pupils and waited for her answer.
"And what do they think?" Artoria didn't refuse, but asked rhetorically.
This also represents a disguised consent. When she said they were, they meant the Golden Shining and the Emperor.
"I don't think the King of Conquest will refuse this offer. This heroic uncle would like to have such a grand battle. ”
"As for the golden pickup, he will not allow himself to refuse with his pride."
"And what about the Assassin and his current Master?" Artoria asked suddenly. "It seems that the Assassins are not qualified to participate in this war, are you going to deal with them?"
"Hehe" Meluaim didn't speak, just smiled softly.
Meluam didn't answer Artoria, but someone said in a hurry, and Kenneth left down Emiya Kiritsugu, who had abolished all the magic marks in his body, and said quickly.
"No, no, no, no, Your Majesty the Knight King, we are fighting for the Holy Grail. Now I have everything I want because of the king. So the Holy Grail doesn't mean much to me. ”
"As for the Assassin," Kenneston paused. "You may not believe it, but Assassin's wish is not the mess you think you want. Assassin she just wants to live peacefully, away from war and assassination. ”
Living in peace may be a trivial matter for those who are high up in the king.
But for the leader of the killer clan, it was a luxury.
As killers, they are born with the mark of dying at any time during the mission. Even if he sat in Hassan's place, he was not immune.
Want to quit? No way. The killer world doesn't want to quit if you want to, you want to go incognito? It's even more impossible.
Then die, or continue the mission. There is no other choice.
And Assassin has long been tired of such a life.
"Yes," Artoria was silent.
Truth be told, she could understand Assassin's wishes. Being able to rule the people and live in peace has always been the royal road she is seeking.
And why doesn't she want to live like that? Don't be a king, live for yourself.
A hand rested on Artoria's shoulder.
"KING, I'M FINE." He didn't slap the arm on his shoulder.
"But I don't have a master right now, and I don't have enough magic to support me in battle."
"You don't have to worry about that, it's just magic." Meluaim laughed, like a little fox who had succeeded in his plot.
"Even if it doesn't work, can't you still make up for the demon?" Biting on Artoria's earlobe, Meluaim whispered.
Artoria's face was as red as an apple.
"What are you talking about?"
Emiya Kiritsugu and his assistant were handed over to Kenneth by Meluam, and as for what happened to Meluam, he didn't ask, but it certainly wouldn't be much better.
Alice Phil, on the other hand, was protected from the fact that she was the carrier of the Holy Grail.
In the next few days, the Heroic Spirits and the Masters seemed to have agreed, and there were no large-scale battles.
Until they received an invitation from Meluaim.
The venue is again the castle of Einzbergeren, where the last meeting took place.
And this time it was initiated by Meluaim himself - the War of the Four Kings.
Abbreviated as "王の War" (to be continued.) )
