(5,000 chapters for a new week, ask for recommendation votes wow!) ）

When this question was asked, Rin Tosaka was mentally prepared, and she would not be surprised if the lion tribulation said, "I'm sorry, I don't know." It is said that the last Holy Grail War was the last to usher in a devastating result, so there is no such thing as a victor in theory - this is the statement of Yan Feng Qili. Although it is occasional, he will also reveal some secrets about this from time to time.

The reason why she was concerned about this issue was completely because she wanted to know who the figure who could defeat her father and the other lords was, maybe there was a slight possibility.

Even if there is an accident at the last moment, the result of my father's defeat and serious injury will not change. Then it is very likely that the one who defeats him will be the 'winner'.

It is clear from his father's deathbed words that he regarded the Holy Grail War as a disgrace and demanded that his daughter be ashamed of him no matter what.

Not only for the honor of the Tosaka family, but also for the promise of his father.

Therefore, Rin Tosaka's heart did not have a trace of confusion.

But—

"Well, I thought you knew the truth." The lion scratched his head and said in confusion.

"What do you know? Can you stop playing dumb riddles. ”

Rin Tosaka has a vague feeling of bad luck.

"The last Holy Grail winner was the guy who was still lying on the operating table."

The lion said in a relaxed tone. Completely ignoring Rin Tosaka's gradually difficult to look at the face.

By the time he noticed, Rin Tosaka had regained his composure.

"You mean. The last Holy Grail winner was Ling Yi? ”

"That's right."

That's an exaggeration.

Rin Tosaka stared at him suspiciously.

She really couldn't imagine that the young magician who claimed to have run to the clock tower from the ancient country of the East would have something to do with the last Holy Grail War. What's more, when it comes to achievements in magic, that young man has not shown the slightest amazing combat power at all, and is more like a civil servant running for a living than a magician.

But if you think about it, since the beginning of the Holy Grail War, the calm, mature and sophisticated tactical arrangement that that young man has shown is really not like someone who participated in the Holy Grail War for the first time. Yes, this is something that no one else has. Rich combat experience.

"What's wrong? Shocked? Seeing the hesitant expression on her face, the Lion Tribulation Governor teased.

"Pretty much." Rin Tosaka replied absentmindedly, her mind full of other things.

"It's no wonder, after all, even the old antiques of the clock tower didn't expect this outcome." The lion robber said to himself: "At that time. The Clock Tower's knowledge of the Holy Grail War is still limited to rumors that a holy relic that can grant all wishes will appear in the remote island country. There should be a sense of proportion when joking'. Even the guy from Ermelo came to war with the contemptuous idea of 'easily taking the Holy Grail to add glory to his body', and ended up dead with no body, but we didn't have a good relationship at the time. ”

That being said. But the sneer on the corner of the lion's mouth really doesn't look like an old friend who has a 'good relationship'.

"Ermelo seems to be a very famous school?" I still heard my father talk about some miscellaneous conversations about the clock tower, but Rin Tosaka doesn't remember it very clearly, but he vaguely remembers that there is such a school.

"Yes, the leader of this sect was originally Kenneth, the eldest son of the Achipolud family, and the first-class lecturer of the Clock Tower Séance. Ermello. Aqipolud. Needless to say, he was very self-assured, and I heard that he ran to participate in the Fourth Holy Grail War, which was the last one. As a result, he was killed by his own students, and this rumor is widely spread inside the clock tower, and even I have heard about it. ”

What a hapless guy.

Lion Tribulation gloated.

"By their own students?" Rin Tosaka asked in surprise.

"Three generations of single transmission, grandmother is the love of some second-rate magician. The woman, blowing the wind on the pillow into the circle of magicians, but that's all. In the third generation, although that person barely entered the clock tower to study, but so what? Bloodline and aptitude are destined for a magician's life, no matter how good his mind is, he still can't learn advanced magic. And that's why—"

The lion said with a serious expression.

"That man went to the Far East to participate in the Holy Grail War without telling his mentor, and defeated other masters through various unknown methods, becoming the last winner of the Holy Grail."

"How the hell is this done?"

After Rin Tosaka heard this, the whole person was not good.

Although it was her first time participating in the Holy Grail War, she knew how difficult the other Lords were. No, this is secondary, the most important thing is the servant, those who have created great achievements in the history of mythology are the protagonists, it is impossible to defeat the heroic spirit with a human body, so you can only rely on your own servant, but between the servant and the servant, because of the different factors such as job introduction, treasure, popularity, etc., there is also a certain gap in strength.

If the enemy draws the best card, the outcome is doomed.

Could it be that that person Ling Yi drew an excellent card, so he won?

"Who knows the way, anyway, I only know the way, even if he draws the best card, he can't control it with his magic level."

That's right.

The more powerful the Servant, the more terrifying the magic will be.

What's more, the difference in personality is also a key point.

What about summoning the strongest Servant? If you don't obey, you can still play it.

"In short, I only know this, and I'm afraid you'll have to ask the person concerned for the rest."

The lion robber dropped a sentence and got up to leave the reception room. Don't look at him so relaxed on the surface, just after a difficult defensive battle a few hours ago, he started heart transplant surgery after resting for a while, who made him specialize in necromancy, when it comes to understanding the human body, no one here can compare to him.

It's like letting a doctor kill someone, but it's the other way around.

"Really. I was only halfway through and ran away. Rin Tosaka complained in a low voice, but she also knew that there was no need to lie about the Lion Tribulation, it was not easy for her to know so much as a mercenary, and she knew that even the leading boss of the magic world began to pay attention to the Holy Grail War only after Ling Yi returned.

However, the lion tribulation said earlier, "Defeated other masters through various unknown means", does this include my father? If so, then he is the murderer of his father indirectly.

Is it or not? Rin Tosaka still doesn't know, maybe he can really only ask the person in person, as the lion said.

☆

The next day, after breakfast, they gathered in the reception room.

By the way. Recently, there has been a significant decrease in the number of ghouls roaming the neighborhood. Yesterday, on the way back to the church, Kirizakura went to the store to loot a lot of fresh food, and everyone was relieved that they finally didn't have to eat canned food. Although the bread milk is not rich. But the lion robbery, who lives on the battlefield all year round, rarely eats a normal meal.

"—Looks like you've all arrived."

Ling Yi finally appeared.

It's different from the usual incomprehensible summer wear. He changed into black long-sleeved jeans today. With a cup of hot coffee in hand, it's like an office worker on vacation.

"Tell me why you brought us together."

Sakura and Illya have never liked to speak first, and Shinji Maki doesn't dare to be so presumptuous. Yan Feng Qili is still the same, he seemed to have come back in a hurry last night, and he ran out of the city before dawn.

Today's Rin Tosaka doesn't seem to be in very good spirits.

Ling Yi sat on the sofa and said to himself: "I'm not against girls staying up late, but your state will affect Archer, so it's better to pay more attention." ”

"I didn't stay up late, just a little insomnia."

Because the more I think about it, the more chaotic it becomes, and I can't fall asleep when I lie on the bed and toss and turn.

It's definitely not your fault, though!

"Compared to this," Ling Yi said lightly, turning his head to look at Jian Tong Shinji.

"How's Lancer doing?"

As soon as the words fell, the silver-haired man appeared behind Shinji Makiri.

On the surface, there is no sign of injury on the chest.

"Although it doesn't affect conventional combat, if you want to liberate the treasure, I'm afraid you won't be able to carry such a huge amount of magic power, and it is estimated that I will die if I use it once." Bad news that makes the air tense.

Even so, Ling Yi still looked relaxed.

"It doesn't affect conventional warfare. At present, there are only two servants left on the other side, and Berserker is dead. In terms of combat power, we have the advantage, as long as we attack it in one go. ”

"Wait, do you know where the enemy's base camp is?"

Illya asked, raising her hand.

Hearing this, Ling Yi showed an intriguing smile.

"Yan Feng didn't go out to play these days."

The crowd was silent.

"You mean, Qili went to search for the location of Alt Luki?"

Rin Tosaka asked with a frown. That priest could be so selfless? It's unimaginable.

"Of course."

Ling Yi affirmed.

"So where the hell is it?"

"Einzbelen Castle."

☆

This morning.

Einzbelen Castle.

Alone on the balcony, Alt Luki sipped the finest European black tea, looking at her leisurely appearance, as if the bad news of yesterday's loss of an important combat force was just an illusion.

The castle is located on the outskirts of Fuyukicho, and the sun is not visible all year round, but the air is exceptionally good.

Elt Luki even had the urge to stay here for a few years, so that boring flies would not pounce on her every day.

"Your Highness, are you awake?"

A voice came.

"Don't ask such unpleasant questions when I'm drinking tea, as if I like to sleep during the day."

Alt Luki said with a little dissatisfaction.

Soon after the words fell, a hooded man with a face that could not be seen clearly suddenly appeared next to her.

"But you, do you hate the normal way of entering the door so much?"

Every time, it is a spirit through the wall, and suddenly appears in front of it, if it weren't for Alte Luqi, it would be difficult to adapt to other masters.

"Because it's Assasin."

An answer that's hard to refute.

"Where's Saber?"

"Into the forest."

"What are you doing in the forest early in the morning?"

Elt Luki asked, confused, as she looked out at the vast forest beyond the balcony.

"After hearing about Berserker's death. He was quite depressed, probably to relieve his mood. ”

"Actually, I wish he had been a little more angry, so that the fight would be interesting."

Saying things that seem dangerous.

Eltruki suddenly asked, "When do you think they will attack?" ”

"Why do you think so? Isn't this base quite hidden? ”

"But if you think about it, it's impossible for me to live in the city, so isn't it the only one who can live nearby? Moreover, it is not uninhabited here, and I noticed a lot of traces of battle when I came, whether it was magic or servant. Just sit down and think about it. It was only a matter of time before he came up with 'Eltruki hiding in this castle'. ”

"I see."

"Can't you even think of this? Don't let me down too much. ”

"No, it's just that I want you to keep yourself safe as much as possible. After all, our current combat strength is limited, and in the event of a major attack by the other party, the forest barrier alone will not be enough to resist. ”

"It's up to you then."

"What?"

The man was a little stunned.

"'Elt Luki is hiding in the castle not far away. She is not afraid of the coming attack' - do you think they will think so? Elt Luki took a sip of black tea. There was no fluctuation in the tone.

"Probably. If you don't show up, everyone will think so. ”

"Who? Not necessarily, at least not the man. ”

Elt Luki's eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Webb. Wilvett spares no expense. Even if it costs you your life, you will kill this man. With your strength, even if Saber from the previous session protects him, it will be difficult to survive. ”

"Understood."

The man was silent for a moment, then responded.

"You go down first."

"Yes."

With Eltruki's words, the man regained his form.

"Alright, let me enjoy this farce."

A strange smile appeared on the corner of Eltruki's mouth, and his gaze turned into the distance again.

☆

There was once a hero in the past, and he was a great hero who slayed dragons.

Flawless in all respects, a complete hero without any flaws. He is a man who has won the admiration of everyone and is often turned to by people for his great power.

Himself is happy - so the hero thinks. Until the moment before his death, this idea did not change. He never succumbed to overwhelming force, nor did he bow to despair.

Some are just words of blessing and appreciation. From birth to death, all this has not changed, the hero thinks.

The perfect hero who constantly satisfies people's demands, but what is demanded after the most is his own death.

What he had done in the past because he had been asked for it was now a punishment that came upon him. The brother-in-law who fell in love with a beautiful woman begged him to help capture the woman, and he solved it by holding the woman by himself as an agent. While that may not be a crime, it is also not a laudable practice.

Because this incident was known by the people around him, the hero hurt the woman's reputation and hurt the woman's dignity. It was not an ordinary woman, but a princess of a country. Because of this, he speculated that an ugly quarrel would ensu—and he said to the man with whom he had called him a friend in the past, and with whom he had a drink:

"Ah, things don't always go as people want. Hagen, because I'm invincible, I can't be hurt by you. But even so, I'm going to ask you to kill me. ”

The man who used to be a friend in the past, fulfilled the hero's wishes. He found a weakness with his obsessive mind, and even though he knew it was a despicable act, he still racked his brains to come up with various schemes, aiming at the hero's back while he was drinking. Despite knowing that his actions were being heard, the hero gave up his resistance.

The hero did not leave any dishonorable or stupid image, but simply passed away as a tragic hero who was deceived and murdered. As for his former friends, he is known as a rare villain who kills heroes by despicable means.

Originally, this was the end of the matter. The feud was eventually settled, and the hero died—what was supposed to be just such a story.

However, this has caused the worst situation that far exceeds the hero's prediction.

The hero's wife was blinded by revenge, which led to the death of many men.

This must be because the hero is loved and close to everyone, so he doesn't really understand what obsessive love is...... That is, once the beloved is killed, the warm love that must be returned to the other party is doubled.

Or maybe it's because he keeps repeating the habit of responding to requests after receiving them, and he doesn't think that even if his loved one doesn't make a request, he won't respond.

As a result, his wishes were not fulfilled until the end of the day. For a hero who is not to fight evil, nor to accumulate virtue for doing good, but just focuses on "fulfilling wishes", this is probably not a thing to do.

However, the hero had a hazy thought when he was dying. It seems that it was only when he faced death that he finally realized clearly what he "wanted to do".

I have not encountered anything unpleasant in my life.

And yet even so, I still think so. If I wasn't a prince, if I were just an ordinary man.

Will I be able to pursue my ideals without distractions?

Ah, if there is a second life, please let me make my dream come true.

It doesn't matter if no one admits it, it doesn't matter if I don't get anyone's appreciation, I have to admit myself, I have to be proud of myself. Only there is what I desire, only there is what I expect.

I want to stand by the side of a being I trust. If I can do that, I can live with my chest up.

It's not about fighting for someone else, it's not about fighting for yourself.

For the benevolence I believe, for the righteousness I believe, for the loyalty I believe, for the love I believe. Let me take this sword and face it with this body.

That's my dream, my wish.

I—I want to be a friend of justice. (To be continued......)
