Chapter Forty-Nine: The Women Who Met the King (73,000 Votes and 10,000 Words Burst, 3/4)
At night, everything is lonely. In the empty wilderness, there are only a few intermittent birdsongs, telling the slow passage of time.
Saber took Sakura's hand and walked to the church headed to the Holy Grail Waroverseer, Rimasa Mono. The girl in armor stepped on the gravel road, making a dangling sound from time to time, and wore it all the way to the sky in the dark night.
"Saber ......" Sakura looked up at her protector with some confusion, and couldn't help but ask, "Are we going to church?" β
"Well, go to church."
Saber smiled in response to the girl's question, her voice so soft that it was as calming as a lullaby.
"What about Liu Mengchao...... "Sakura asked subconsciously, "I didn't see him, will he come with us too?" β
Is Liu Mengchao......
Saber slowed his pace, proud and graceful like a triumphant knight.
"He's always around us."
Although Saber was very jealous of Liu Mengchao's elusive stealth ability when he was an enemy, once he became an alliance, such an ally who would always be by his side would still make Saber feel at ease.
"So where is he now? Is it with Uncle Yanye? β
Sakura held Saber's hand and looked around. As far as the eye could see, there was no other scenery except for a few birds fluttering their wings in front of her.
βsaberβ¦β¦ I'm a little scared ......."
Sakura squeezed Saber's hand hard and whispered.
"I'll protect you, master."
Saber whispered to his master.
"Like a knight protecting the princess?"
"Hmm."
Saber nodded slightly, trying to make his face look soothing. In order to know the news of Alice Phil, he must go to the church of Yanfeng Lizheng. On the other hand, in order to be able to get the reward of killing the caster, you must also bring your own master with you.
Although overseeing the Holy Grail War, Lipasa Yanfeng. It had been made clear before that there would be a truce until the day after the Caster was destroyed. But in his heart, he no longer wanted to believe the words of the overseer who oversaw the Holy Grail War.
Not credible.
This is the sentence that Saber gave to Yan Fengli in his heart. She thought as she looked around her more vigilantly. Saber believes that no amount of wind or grass can escape his eyes.
βsaberβ¦β¦ I saw the church. β
Suddenly, Kirizakura, who had been cautious, pointed to Saber's front and said.
Looking in the direction of Sakura's finger, a small church appeared in front of Saber's eyes. Unlike the modern architecture of Fuyuki, this small church is more like the architecture of its own era.
Ancient, brief, plain.
In the gray masonry, traces of dried blood could even be seen.
"Don't leave me. If something unexpected happens, stand still and don't move. I will always be there for you. β
Saber admonished his young master, then strode forward and shouted loudly into the silent church.
"Saber's master, Kirizakura, came to receive the reward for killing the caster!"
Saber's voice echoed around the church for a long time, far away. There was still no one in the church, and it was even more silent than death.
Yan Feng Qili watched everything in front of him with the help of the eyes of the assassin lurking outside the church.
"Is it Sakura...... The new master ......" The corners of Yan Fengqili's mouth curled up contemptuously, and his eyes were full of disdain. "It seems that Saber is already desperate to get the Holy Grail. But...... Who made that little girl a master? It's not the night of the wild goose, is it Kenneth? β
Yan Feng Qili silently pondered in his heart, and glanced at his father, who was also in front of him. An old man who was already like a dead wood that had completely decayed. The face is full of wrinkles left by the years.
"Father's ......"
"Hmm." Hearing the words of the son opposite, Yan Fengli, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating, slowly opened his eyes. The light flashed in these already cloudy eyes, and the old man Huo Ran got up and stood up.
"Why didn't the rider come?"
He muttered to himself. Yan Fengqili on the other side knew what his father meant. According to the original plan, it should be rider and saber coming together. With the help of the archer, Gilgamesh suppressed them. Have the lurking Assassin assassin assassinate both Saber and Rider's master. But......
"Is he scared......"
Yan Fengli tentatively gave his own answer.
Hearing his father's words, Yan Feng Qili slowly lowered his head, and his face, which was completely covered by shadows, was more of a disdainful smile.
Naturally, it was seen through.
That rider is not at all as stupid and unscrupulous as it seems, as if there is a man who sees through everything, standing behind this conquering king, planning everything for him.
From the beginning to the end, there was no grudge against any of the servants, and there was no danger of being besieged. Both Lancer and Saber are grateful to him from the bottom of their hearts. And the reward for destroying the caster is not in the hands of this conquering king.
Is it because this king's intelligence is too outstanding, or is his weak master too resourceful?
Yan Feng Qili thought about it and couldn't help but chuckle.
In this way, Saber who faces Archer and Assassin alone will definitely encounter the death of the Master again.
"That's right, Qili." Yan Feng Lizheng, who was almost about to walk to the door, suddenly turned around and said to his son, "Alice Phil is all right now, she is the container of this Holy Grail War, and she can't be damaged in the slightest." β
"All is well, father."
Yan Feng Qili nodded slowly, turning his back to his father. Step by step, step into the shadow of the church. At the same time, emotionless orders emanated from this small shadow.
"Assassins, take your seat!"
"Squeak...... Yikes......"
A tormenting cacophony rang out over the empty wilderness. Dressed in the priest's black robes, Yan Fengli was slowly emerging from the darkness.
I saw that the old man, with his older hands, took off the hood on his head, exposing his face full of old age to the moonlight.
"Saber, and Saber's master...... Kirizakura. Are you here to get paid for the extermination of the caster? β
"Exactly."
Saber stood directly in front of Sakura Makiri, his hand in armor tightly gripping his sword, and his eyes looking around him even more vigilantly.
"Other than that, I have questions for you!" Saber said coldly, "When you informed us, you said that you found news of Alice Field, so where is she now, and is everything okay?" β
"Alice Phil......"
Yan Fengli lowered his head and pondered for a while before lifting it up again.
"I'm sorry. You are neither her servant nor the master of this Holy Grail War, and I am not obligated to explain her whereabouts to you. β
"What about me! I'm a master! β
The childish voice of Sakura Maki suddenly sounded in the night sky. The little girl's crisp voice is like a wind chime ringing in the summer.
"You ......"
Yan Fengli is trying hard to drive his completely old body. He looked vigorously at Saber and Sakura in front of him, and the corners of his mouth smiled contemptuously.
"It's the daughter of the passing hour, it's really ......"
"What is it?"
Sakura asked suspiciously.
"I'm so sorry."
A voice of slight appreciation suddenly rang out in the sky, and Gilgamesh, dressed in golden armor, was accompanied by a golden glow like the sun. Descended on the church. I saw him put his feet together and set his feet together on the cross.
In addition to the moonshine overhead, Gilgamesh can be sure. Nothing is higher than him.
And this is in line with the common sense of this hero king.
βarcherοΌβ
Saber jerked out his sword and blocked it in front of Sakura.
"I thought it would be a rider, but I didn't expect that when it comes to arrogance, the man who makes this king quite admired will actually lose to you, Saber."
Could it be that this trap is set up for the rider!?
Saber's mind instantly slipped through the judgment of the situation, but there was not the slightest confusion in his eyes. It was supposed to be like a trap, but I still broke into it without hesitation.
Alice Phil is one of the reasons, the other ......
The corners of Saber's mouth subconsciously curled, I'm afraid it's my trust in Berserker Liu Mengchao, right?
The smiling Saber was so seductive, and Gilgamesh looked at Saber's face as if she remembered the shy and sweet smiles of the virgins lying in her bedchamber.
"Lift up, woman." The Hero King smiled and said, "I allow you to see this King before you die. β
Saber did not get angry or speak at such frivolous words. She simply raised the sword of Covenant Victory in the air and met her gaze into Gilgamesh's eyes. (To be continued......)
