Chapter 19: Something Went Wrong
"Ahaha, you don't need to worry about such small things......"
The conquering king Iskandar was informal, and his rough and unrestrained personality was undoubtedly revealed at this moment, he waved his hand aggressively, and was about to say something, and then his expression suddenly froze.
He subconsciously turned his head and looked to the other side, his already big eyes widened: "Wait, this young lady, what are you talking about?" Is he your courtier? ”
Imagawa Yoshimoto said confidently and proudly: "He is Miss Ben's person, and he will only be Miss Ben's person, you big guy don't think about it......"
Her gaze at Rider became a little dangerous, but it was also tinged with a touch of disdain, as if she had absolute confidence in this aspect, and the other party was just scum.
“……”
Charlotte's expression remained unchanged, just silently paying attention to the cold prompts that kept ringing in her head, which were kill prompts and points prompts.
Just as summoned creatures, traps, and enemies are counted on the leader's head, the rules of fairness of the "Lord God" are still in play at this point.
Mu Xiu is considered her servant, and the number of kills will naturally only fall on her head.
As for what everyone was discussing now, although she was also listening carefully, she didn't pay much attention to it anymore, just staring at the huge cloud pillar connecting heaven and earth in the distance below, not knowing what she was thinking.
Artoria's face changed slightly, but she wasn't too surprised, after all, she had heard the damn traitor call this kimono girl before.
In other words, although the actual relationship should be another matter, it is really possible that the two people are nominally in that kind of relationship.
"No, no, it seems that this young lady is also a great character."
Iskandar, the king of conquest, rubbed his hands together and smiled with admiration.
"I don't know if the two of you would like to join in, though...... Okay, okay, if you don't want to, forget it! It's not time to do it now, I already said it when I brought you up here! ”
Facing the lord of the country who sneered and pulled out a sharp long knife, it seemed that he would cut it directly in the next moment, he quickly explained.
Although I really want to attract people to join the gang, this matter is really not urgent, and I need to think long-term and seize every opportunity to persuade others to do it. But if the relationship is directly stiffened, and they will slash each other when they meet, then there is no hope.
Snorted coldly, but the Lord of the Kingdom put away his weapon.
Speaking of which, it is indeed a loss to the other party, if it weren't for the convenience of the other party's treasure and brought everyone here, it would be difficult for that guy to let go of his hands and feet to chop melons and vegetables, and if the time was delayed a little, the enemy on the opposite side might take the opportunity to escape.
So she didn't plan to bother with the other party, but instead turned her attention back to her previous opponent, but just as she looked over
Alice Phil...... Are you okay?! ”
It was at this time that Artoria's exclamation happened to be heard.
Everyone was subconsciously startled, and then turned their heads to look, just in time to see the knight girl holding the beautiful lady with a noble temperament with one hand, as if the latter was almost unstable on his feet and lost his balance, and fell off the bridge.
Fortunately, Saber beside her was quick and grabbed her.
"Oh, I'm sorry...... I'm sorry for your trouble, Saber. ”
Alice Fell regained her footing with Saber's help, and then stared slightly as if she had realized what had happened. She smiled wryly and reached out a hand to press her forehead, a rather troubled expression on her face.
"I don't have anything, but ...... What happened to you? No problem, right? ”
Artoria took a closer look at her face, then breathed a sigh of relief.
"It should be fine, maybe it's just that the wind is too strong here, and after blowing for a long time, I get a little cold." The silver-haired woman's eyes were a little evasive, but she still showed a soft smile that was so gentle that she couldn't dissolve it as much as possible, and explained softly to the other party.
“……”
“……”
"Is that so, since it's windy here, let's get out of here first."
Originally, Artoria also thought that there was really no problem, after all, it was normal to look at the other party's face. But Alice Field's obvious evasive eyes and obviously perfunctory rhetoric made her realize the problem again.
Even her instincts were faintly warning that it seemed that if she continued to ask questions, she would get very bad results, which she would not want to see.
So, after a long silence, confirming that Alice Fell was not willing to tell the truth to her for the time being, Artoria took a step back. Let's think it's what the other party said, because of the wind and cold.
If it was a knight king in the past, he would definitely not have such a cowardly character.
But now, she had just experienced the Battle of the Sword Fence not long ago, and then she was teleported to the state of this era. It can be said that she had witnessed the demise of Britain only a week or so ago, and she hated the concept of "loss" too much.
Moreover, he even wavered about his character.
When I think of such a beautiful and gentle woman in front of me, a woman who is not familiar with the world may also ...... Artoria felt her heart clogged.
"It turned out to be ...... Is that so? ”
Looking at the scene in front of her, Charlotte nodded thoughtfully, she naturally knew what was going on.
Alice Phil von Einzberen, an artificial human of the Einzberen family, is ostensibly the wife of Emiya Kiritsugu, the mother of Illia Phil von Einzberen, and the former Saber in this Holy Grail War as the acting master of Artoria Pandragon.
But in fact, she is not only an extremely good magician, but also an important figure in the Little Holy Grail in this Holy Grail War.
The artificial human, made in the original form of Richlechyu Stissa, von Einzberen, had already been decided in the design stage, and she would continue to hold the souls of the defeated in this war as a "grail vessel", and gradually lose herself and fall into a situation of inaction.
Even if the Servant is not the Heroic Spirit itself, the soul power is far beyond what ordinary people can bear, and if Alice Phil is not a well-designed artificial person, even the soul of a Servant cannot be contained.
However, there is a limit to more
As a device to keep the soul of the dead servant and stabilize the magic passage between the "Great Grail" and the present world, she is necessary for the achievement of the third magic, and sooner or later, due to the continuous withdrawal of the servant, the pressure will increase, and eventually she will lose her personality and life.
But then again, the sudden change in her should be a sudden increase in pressure, right? Charlotte blinked, looking in the direction the storm receded.
Counting Caster and Lancer, who had just been sent away due to the loss of the Noble Phantasm, there were already two servants who had exited, and their souls should have flowed into Alice Phil's body as a small chalice.
Also, it wasn't possible to know for sure if there were any other servants who had left the field without her knowledge, so it seemed normal for her to feel pressure.
It seems that as long as the souls of six servants flow in at most, Alice Phil will no longer be able to support it and disintegrate into a true Holy Grail Vessel, right?
It's just that according to the normal process, after the six servants leave the field, there is only one group left, and it is only natural to get the Holy Grail. However, now, only six groups of centaurs have left, and the Holy Grail as the final reward may have already arrived
…… Fuyuki City is absolutely finished this time, and it will inevitably be completely destroyed.
"What's the matter, do you know what's going on?" Imagawa Yoshimoto seemed to hear Charlotte's whispered mutter, so he asked unceremoniously.
The wheelchair girl raised her eyebrows, and then said lightly: "I know a little bit, but if I want to know more clearly...... Your Excellency, you may wish to ask that courtier of yours. ”
The next moment, the strong wind in the high altitude had directly turned into the figure of a young man, and it fell lightly on the steel beam of the Weiyuanchuan Bridge.
"It's basically solved, but it's a pity that there is one person who still has too many life-saving means and directly teleports out, but ...... Hey, wait, why are your eyes so strange, Lord of the Kingdom? ”
Imagawa Yoshimoto raised his eyebrows and replied quietly: "Your delusion, Miss Ben is normal. ”
"Really?" Mu Xiu nodded, then frowned again and looked at the burly man on the other side, "You look at my eyes that seem to be even more strange...... Want to fight? ”
Ten more minutes later
The deep night sky had returned to calm, and the only remaining conquests were Iskandar and Webb on the steel beams of the night.
"Didn't you say you wanted to fight the heroes of other eras? Just let them go now? ”
"Yes. It's rare to have the opportunity to confront heroes from different eras like this. If everybody is here, I'm not going to let anyone go. ”
A fierce and dangerous moan leaked out of Rider's throat like a lion's roar, but there was a hint of a smile in the way he raised the corners of his mouth, and then he patted his master on the head with his height advantage.
"But not now, and they've all just been through a battle, so it's too despicable to duel them at this time, and I don't care about it."
……
……
Mu Xiu and the others took some time and returned to Liudong Temple.
Then they immediately got the warm cheers of the left-behind team, and in their opinion, the continuous swiping of the screen just now was simply numb, and it also made their confidence full.
It seems that as long as you hug your thighs, you can easily get through this mission, after all, before they have time to fight, two other reincarnation teams have already been wiped out.
However, Charlotte didn't seem to relax, and was about to work out a plan for the next stage with everyone based on the current progress.
So, everyone simply took advantage of the night and held a meeting at the mountain gate.
“…… There was such a big movement before, and the golden archer didn't come, thinking that Tosaka Shichen should have used a spell to restrain him, but this aspect had no effect, so the plan to attack Tosaka's mansion remained unchanged......"
“…… The person who escaped shouldn't have any problems, but you should also be wary of the possibility that he will continue to contract with other servants, and then you should also divide your attention and try to find this guy first and solve the ......"
“…… Medea's contract also needs to be re-established, otherwise she can't leave Liudong Temple at all, let alone take a dagger and go to Tosaka Mansion to stab Tosaka Shichen while Jin Shining is leaving, but it is difficult to find a candidate with sufficient magic power......"
“…………”
As it turns out, there are times when meetings are not completely useless. Everyone brainstormed and quickly took into account all the things that needed attention, and even the priorities.
It's just that
In the end, Charlotte suddenly asked Mu Xiu, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally: "How many side plots have you gotten in this Holy Grail War until now?" ”
“……”
“……”
There was nothing bloody that blurted out because he was wandering, but the conversation of the crowd stopped abruptly and became a dead silence.
Charlotte's companions couldn't react for a while, and their eyes widened in astonishment when they heard the sound of the "Lord God" prompting the deduction sound. The others, however, were keenly aware of their amiss, so they kept silent.
Mu Xiu held his chin with one hand, as if he was thinking about something, Wen Yan slowly turned his head to look over, and after a while, he said with a smile
"Not once, and I didn't get any bonus points."
