Chapter Thirty-Six: Meeting at the Cemetery
When the time came, in the wilderness cemetery east of Cluj and west of Sighisoara, Li Ji and his target, the master of the red Saber, separated from the Lion Raid Realm.
"Hello the mysterious magician." The Lion Tribulation Realm came up and tried to say hello, but no matter who it was, if they saw him rough and looked a little vicious because of his hair, no one could laugh.
"Hello, Mr. Lion, I am the magician who is looking forward to meeting you." He said hello.
Standing behind the Lion Tribulation Realm was a young girl, obviously so petite, and wearing a rather youthful and beautiful fiery red civilian clothes with only a chest wrap, but she bluffed at them with a fierce look: "What are your plans, tell me quickly, don't waste my time and the master's time." β
The Lion's Master, the Red Master, is a hired necromancer, and his servant is Saber, known as the Rebel Knight.
It is such a very powerful force that has been wandering outside the two sides of the Holy Grail War, making decisions cautiously, not risking danger, and playing its own value with ease, which impresses Li Ji.
"As the letter says, I'm here to work with you."
"Mr. Lion, your desire to fight for the Holy Grail is to revive your family, right? The last family in Far Eastern Japan was cursed by the devil until you were the last generation, you lost the ability to leave offspring, and even the death of your adopted daughter, who was very likely to inherit the family's magic mark, made you abandon yourself and become a hired magician. β
"You know it so well." The Lion Tribulation Realm subconsciously lamented the death of his niece, how cute and likable she was, including previous tests, proved that it was very likely to inherit the magic mark, which meant the possibility of carrying forward the magic family from generation to generation.
However, the curse of the devil finally frustrated his wishes, and he regretted it for many years, which he has never forgotten to this day.
"As for you, Mordredβ"
"That's it!" The girl's body was inspired by red thunder, her civilian clothes suddenly disappeared, her body was wrapped in heavy body armor, and she raised the brilliant Wang Sword and pointed at them, "Let's fight first!" β
"Your father!" Li Ji suddenly shouted.
"Don't nag about your father's affairs."
"She's a great king!" Li Ji continued without changing his face.
"Okay, I know you're telling the truth, and in that case, hurry up and say something meaningful." Mordred urged.
"Long story short." Li Ji's speed of urging finally became faster, "This Holy Grail War is not as simple as it seems, you must have noticed something when you went to the church in Sigeosoara. β
The Lion Tribulation Realm frowned, and the unpleasant memories of the previous few days came to his mind, as Li Ji said, on the eve of the start of the Holy Grail War, as usual, as the master of the red side, he was going to the Church in the Mountains of Sighisoara, to meet with the rest of the masters and servants, but after arriving, he and Mordred both noticed the anomaly, and finally did not choose to stay for a long time, and decided to act alone.
"Your choice is very wise, if you stay a little longer, you may become a puppet of the assassin behind the scenes."
"As you might guess, I'm talking about the one I'm talking about, the Shirou who joined the Red on behalf of the Templar Church, and his unusual identity is the Ruler summoned by House Einzberen in the Third Holy Grail War."
Li Ji directly revealed the biggest mystery of this Holy Grail War this time, and if it didn't reach this point, the Lion Tribulation Realm would not agree to cooperate with him as easily as Sixth Dao Lingxia.
"The Third Holy Grail War?" After hearing this unbelievable news, the Lion Tribulation Realm subconsciously interrupted, "-You are talking about Amakusa Shiro?" β
Amakusa Shiro, a rebel hero active at the end of Japan's Warring States Period, a young man who believed in Catholicism, at that time when the shogunate issued a ban on religion, prohibiting the people from believing in Catholicism, he could not bear it and led an army of 30,000 ordinary people to launch an uprising, facing the 120,000 shogunate army as the enemy, in such a huge contrast, they won consecutive battles through various tactics and strategies, which greatly hit the prestige of the shogunate, just because of the lack of food and grass and being besieged, and finally lost, 30,000 believers including themselves.
"Yes, that young man with strong faith is now behind it, and his purpose is to use the Great Holy Grail to carry out relief for all mankind, don't ask me why I know, don't ask me if this is possible, you might as well judge for yourself."
"And my purpose is not to be a master, but a spectator, and I don't want the Holy Grail War to end so hastily, and it will become a story of the Demon King destroying the world and the hero saving the world, just with such a simple idea - the idea of letting the Holy Grail War go on according to the rules that the Holy Grail War should have, until the winner is decided."
"I forgot to mention it, I think you are also aware of the existence of Joan of Arc this time? Summoned by the Great Holy Grail to deal with an accident that could make the Holy Grail War impossible to continue, she will undoubtedly be the hero who stops Amakusa Shiro, but unfortunately, it is more important for her to stop the mastermind behind the scenes than the Holy Grail War itself, so I don't expect to cooperate with that Holy Maiden. β
"You all have your own wishes, if Joan of Arc wants to destroy all the Great Holy Grails and end the Holy Grail War once and for all in order to stop the mastermind behind the scenes, what do you think?"
"All of the above, of course some of it is speculation... No matter what, I think I have to fight with the two of you..."Li Ji said helplessly, spreading his hands: "As a heroic spirit, most of them are famous heroes in history, not to mention the saber rank, how can they easily cooperate with ordinary people?" β
Mordred was a little surprised, the corners of his mouth curled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and pointed his sword at himself, "You quite understand, I feel like my brain is going to explode when I hear so much nonsense, and my hands are itchy and want to fight you, I don't know why although you are not a master, you have a strange power in your body, and this little guy is unusually similar to the nature of the Heroic Spirit, but he is not a servant, so you have the confidence to fight, right?" β
The Lion Tribulation Realm looked at the fierce fighting intent shown by his servant rather helplessly, and quickly transformed into a mood of elders caring for juniors, and while trying to correct it, he was always willing to cooperate with her.
"Is the battle about to begin?" Xiao Hei's civilian clothes disappeared in the blink of an eye, put on Archer's red power suit, and projected the cadre Mo Xie in his hand, and rushed towards Mordred with high morale.
The battle began.
