“────────”

I woke up from my dream and felt like I had a lead lump in my chest, and although it was cold, I was sweating a lot.

The corners of his eyes were slightly moist, and he wiped his eyes.

"It's dawn, I have to discuss the battle agreement today, I don't know if they're awake."

After adjusting his mood, Gollum glanced at the hanging clock with his mouth open.

Well?

I'll go, it's past nine o'clock!

I'm afraid this is the last time I've gotten up in the past two years, because she has been on a mission, and she hasn't had such a good rest for a long time.

Speaking of which, although I borrowed Shirou's house, I unexpectedly had a sense of intimacy and didn't feel any discomfort. The air here, the environment here, is really similar to the home I used to have.

When they walked to the hall, Shirou, Heizhen and the others had already formed a table, showing an expression that had been waiting for a long time.

Everyone is very conscious, because the Holy Grail War is not child's play, and if you want to win the battle, the meeting is naturally inevitable.

Of course, Gollum knows the importance of the meeting, but since it's going to be a meeting, let's wake her up.

"Miss Heizhen said that you have had a very hard time in the past few years, and everyone thinks it would be better for you to rest more."

Seeing Gollum's doubts, Shirou explained with a smile.

Actually, it's nothing, except for Tosaka, who spent a lot of persuasion and was a little anxious, Shirou and Saber didn't care.

"I think Master's sleeping image is too comfortable to wake up, Servant understands himself Master, is there anything wrong?"

"You really haven't changed~~ I forgot to say thank you for the incident in Shinjuku last time."

Gollum sat down in the vacant seat next to Joan of Arc and smiled at her.

Although she often has to be unforgiving, but Heizhen's heart is still kind, although she has fought as an enemy before, but the later acquaintance and encounter made Gollum completely recognize her value.

She is not as dazzling as Joan of Arc, but in her own way she helps Gollum repair people, and in terms of merit, she may not be much inferior to the Holy Maiden.

"It's good to know, let me state first, although I can't be your shield, I'm not inferior to that little girl."

"I know."

Gollum nodded.

In the following time, everyone first explained to Shirou the meaning and method of the Holy Grail War.

Among the three masters, Gollum has long been experienced in a hundred battles, Rin Tosaka has also been preparing for ten years, and only Shirou is a newcomer who doesn't know anything, and even participating in the Holy Grail War is confused and unclear. If the Master doesn't pay attention, no matter how good Saber is, it will be quite dangerous, after all, the death of the Master will also represent the defeat of the Servant.

"Although you keep talking about the Holy Grail, what is it, is it the cup of the legendary saint?"

After a lot of words, Shirou reluctantly accepted the setting beyond his own worldview, but after hearing so much, he still didn't understand the essence of the Holy Grail.

Legend has it that the Holy Grail ——— cup filled with the blood of the Sage.

The Holy Grail, which is also the highest among the few holy relics, is said to be able to perform various miracles, and it is widely said that those who have the Holy Grail can obtain the world

However, it would be a lie to think no matter how you think about it.

In any case, the existence of the Holy Grail itself is only a "Holy Grail that can grant wishes", and it appears in different legends and traditions around the world.

But that's the only way, because the Holy Grail is an aerial technology that can be reproduced even if it actually exists.

Calling out the Heroic Spirits of the past and enslaving them, this is close to the miracle that revives the dead, it can be said to be magic, and the Holy Grail with this power can give the holder unlimited power.

But everything has its limits, and so does the Holy Grail. If you wish for the "world", it is, of course, impossible to achieve.

"It doesn't matter what the origin is, the important thing is that we have to get it, that's the only purpose that the Holy Grail War gives to the Masters and Servants."

Regardless of the side of the Master, if you want to avoid being killed, you can only "get the Holy Grail" as the goal of ending the war, and those Servants will not be so kind as to let you go because you "have no desire".

Time flies, and there are too many topics about the Holy Grail War.

The Holy Grail War ten years ago, the Third Holy Grail War even more ago, and so on.

Before you know it, evening has crept in.

"Alright, that's the end of the topic, Emiya-san, now we're going to a place."

"Huh?"

"It's about going to see this game that you are well into..... Holy Grail War guys. Emiya-san, I want to know the reason for the Holy Grail War, right? ”

"Of course, but it's too far..."

"No problem, it's in the neighboring town, so if you hurry up, you can come back before dawn, and tomorrow is Sunday, so it's okay to stay up late for the Holy Grail War, right?"

"No, that's not the problem."

After listening to so many incredible stories, Shirou wanted to take a break and tidy up things, after all, these things also need time to digest.

"Why, aren't you going? It doesn't matter if Emiya-san says so, but what about Saber? ”

For some reason, Tosaka asked Saber for advice.

"Wait a minute, it's okay with Saber, don't force her too much."

Saber looked like a slender girl, and even though she was a heroic spirit, Shirou had a hard time imagining what it was like to fight those monsters.

"Oh? Already self-conscious as a master, don't like me talking to Saber? ”

"How, how is it possible! It's just that Saber is the hero of the past, if you say. That is called to the modern age should not know anything, so...."

"Shirou, it's not like that, if a servant wants to exist in the world, he will adapt to various times, so I know the things of this era very well."

"Well, is that so?"

It's no wonder that Saber is so bland, and his ability to adapt to any era is really amazing.

"Shirou, I agree with her. You have too little knowledge as a Master. As a servant who has made a contract with you, it will be very troublesome for Shirou to not be strong. Saber stared at me quietly, not for Saber himself, but for the Master's steady gaze.

"Alright then, I'll just go."

Saber said all that, and Shirou could only nod.

"What about you?"

"Take care of the wind for you."

Kurosa and Gollum are not participants in this Holy Grail War, so there is no need to report to the priest, but since the ultimate goal is to destroy the cup full of evil fruits, then letting Shirou win is probably the best outcome, after all, the other Master Gollum does not know each other.

Walking in the town at night, after a little late at night, there is no one outside.

The lights have been turned off in every house, and now only the street lamps shine on the neighboring towns that have fallen asleep.

Dididi——

"Be careful, in my memory, after Shirou and they went to Yanfeng Qili to report, it seems that they will meet the great hero of Greece."

Gollum whispered to Heizhen.
