Chapter 69: The Contract of the Heart
The flow of the magic of "........................ Hu" gradually weakened...... Eventually, it stopped altogether.
Opposite the "......", the holy sword fell to the ground.
Behind the "plop plop ......", the relieved crowd also collapsed to the ground one by one.
"When ~~~~~~" was almost out of strength, the shield in his hand was finally taken off.
"Ahem......" Rin, choked by the dust flying in the sky, struggled to stand up.
"It's not even dead...... Rin patted this, patted that, and looked at his whole body, not only was he not dead, but he didn't seem to be missing other parts.
"So~~~~~~~~" Rin was about to say something, when he was suddenly stopped by Illya.
"Leave the rest to him." Looking in the direction of his finger, the young man with the golden sword in his hand was walking towards the servant on the opposite side.
“Mas…… ...... Saber, who was trembling all over, took a step back in fear when he saw the boy walking towards him.
"I ...... I ......... "The blonde girl couldn't look directly into the eyes of the teenager at all, and the persistence, faith, and worldview in her heart were once again ruthlessly trampled on by reality, confused, helpless, and worried at the moment filled her heart.
"Kill me...... master…… Please ...... me who betrayed my oath Tears ...... me waving my sword at everyone—crossed her cheeks, and once again the blow of the betrayal of reality shattered the only persistence she had always had.
"Is that your decision...... Saber。 There was a hint of majesty in the young man's words.
"Yes ......" lifted her face soaked in tears, but what she faced was a cold sword.
But she did not hesitate at all, for her who believed in the way of knighthood but was forced to betray it...... There is no easier option at this moment than to die.
"Wait .............................." Rin, who was about to say something, was stopped again by Illya, who slowly shook her head, stopped Rin's interruption again.
"In this case, the destruction of Britain can be understood." The boy lowered his hand in disappointment.
"After the disappearance of Roman rule, the Celts came across the sea from Ireland, a tribe called Sugdi, who named the northern part of the British island "Scotland" after themselves. The Saxons and Anglos came from Germania, the Fleurs from the Netherlands, and the Jutes from Denmark. Under the ruthless invasion and bloody slaughter of the barbarians, the British Isles entered a dark age that lasted for centuries, during which no documentation has survived. ”
"................................." The blonde girl bowed her head wordlessly, and it was not difficult for her to imagine the bloody pictures, the burning houses, the blood-soaked land, and the fallen to the ground were no longer heavily armed soldiers, but the unarmed British people in coarse cloth clothes.
Thinking of this, her tightly bitten lip finally couldn't bear the heaviness, and the red blood dripped to the ground.
"If it weren't for the Battle of Kamran......"
"Ugh!" The girl jerked her head up.
"If you don't have a pro-France campaign......"
"If I could care more about my subordinates......
"If you don't pull out the sword in the stone......"
"I ................................." the blonde girl wanted to say.
"That's why the Holy Grail is needed...... This almighty wish machine is needed to change everything. The boy's words were full of pity.
The "...................................." girl did not deny it, and she could not deny it either.
"Then I need the Holy Grail too."
"Eh??????" Ueya's words stunned Rin, who was standing behind and watching. Indeed, he has been involved in the Holy Grail War, and he has not shown any interest in the Holy Grail, but has been suspicious of it and has not heard what he needs to do with the Holy Grail.
"Because in a dilapidated church, a broken jar and broken servant was abandoned by her master, and then due to lack of strength, the combination of these two men and two women was finally strung into a hedgehog by a golden guy with a treasure, and then the unwilling boy turned into a servant to fight in the Nth Holy Grail War, just to change that unfortunate ending." Speaking of this, the boy spread his hands at his companions with self-deprecation.
The teenager, who got the smiles of his companions as encouragement, turned to the blonde girl again.
"A noble heart should bear calamity rather than avoid it, for to bear calamity shows the nobility of the will, and to avoid calamity is to avoid cowardice in the heart. Although there is a lot of suffering in the world, suffering can always be overcome. You have endured a lot of suffering, but there is at least one advantage to being unlucky: you can recognize who your true friends are. Now your friends are standing in front of you, and they deeply understand how much time you have spent and how many difficulties you have overcome to finally stand in front of them. ”
"History is over, but the future is all around you." As he spoke, the young man solemnly stretched out his hand.
"Let's fight together! Don't let go of all your burdens for the long past that has long passed, and fight with everyone again in the name of your own body and faith! ”
"I .................. I ........................ like this," the girl's voice trembled.
"Please believe that as you pursue your ideals and fight for them, we will always stand by your side with a smile on our faces."
"Yes......" tears crossed her cheeks again, and the two hands were finally held together.
"So~~~~~ set a small achievable goal - win the Holy Grail War!" The boy pulled the girl to her feet.
"Are you ready to conclude a contract~~~ Saber."
"Yes!" The girl wiped the tears from her face, firmly, and reappeared on her face.
"Okay~~~~~ but please wait a minute, if you make a contract directly, there will be problems." Illya clapped her hands, caught their attention, and walked out.
"Then again...... The spell was in Emiya's hand before...... Now it looks like Saber is more obedient to Kamiya...... What the hell are you guys? Rin was confused again.
"Big brother, please use the holy sword in your hand to cut the palm of your hand."
"Huh? Still want to cut your hands? "Uetani is very disgusted with self-harm, and he doesn't see other masters cut himself when they make a contract.
"Yes, otherwise something will go wrong." Illya said with certainty.
"Snort," Kamiya slashed his palm.
"Saber, hold his bloody hand and let his blood stain yours, and the blood must be connected to the wound." Illya stood beside her and calmly commanded.
"Yes." Saber took Ueya's bloody hands as ordered.
"So, let's get started." Illya left the two of them.
"Declare—"
"Thou shalt obey my commands, and my fate is tied to thy sword."
"If thou wilt answer the call of the Holy Grail......
"So it goes...... From now on......"
"Then obey my ......"
"Then I will pin my fate on your sword!"
"I take the oath in the name of Saber."
"I confess you as my master, my eternal master!"
"Buzz~~~~" The three-stroke crimson spell formed a dragon-shaped coat of arms on Kamiya's hand. (Old Rolling Five Cover Dragon Crest, Baidu can be checked)
"Boom...... Bang ~~~~~~~~" surging power flowed into Saber's body, and at the same time, it shook everyone's heart.
