My Destiny Illustrated Book of the Moon

Chapter 455 The Last Red Square

"——I never write about myself. That's something called prose. Now I only have the ability to weave other people's stories. Apart from that, I have nothing else to write."

Shakespeare said in a firm tone. Karna understood what he meant and frowned and said:

"Does that mean I'm afraid of trouble?"

"Well, almost."

Hmm - Karna nodded to express his understanding.

"...Then there's no other way. Your goal is to write the story of someone other than yourself. No matter whether the result is destruction or tragedy, you have to write it to the end. Therefore, surviving until the last moment is your goal. . Fighting on the front line is naturally impossible."

Regarding these cold words, Shakespeare smiled happily and said:

"Yes, that's it! I really want to witness the outcome of this Holy Grail War with my own eyes, I must do it! Whether it is happiness or misfortune, or the desperate truth, I will witness everyone's story by my side until the end. The mission that I have to shoulder!”

As a Servant summoned by the Holy Grail War, this line is completely inconsistent with his status. He said it categorically - he would stay on the sidelines until the end.

Achilles and Atalanta really didn't know whether to feel helpless or angry, but Shuo Yue chuckled.

Although he did not live in this way, he admired people who could carry out this will to the end.

At the same time, he was also secretly curious - what would be the story that even this great writer couldn't restrain and had to end personally?

All in all, with the help of the C-level Noble Phantasm and the priest's own firm will, the red servants gave up the idea of ​​dissuading him. Even the empress sighed and acknowledged Amakusa's bold behavior.

"Then there's no other way, Master. I have to stay here to control this courtyard, so I can't go to the battlefield to fight in person. Although I will provide support as much as possible, you can't go too deep into the enemy's territory, okay?"

"I understand this. After all, I know my own strength very well."

Although he said so, Amakusa had no intention of retaining his strength in this war. You must fight with all your strength and go all out to win the Holy Grail. He is willing to risk his life for this, and he will not hesitate to carry out even an act that is completely contrary to justice.

"Then, even though we have all the generals, it's not a good idea to have no soldiers. Even if there are only a few cyborgs or golems, it would be quite annoying to get together."

As the Empress said, they don't have soldiers. But after all, she was Semiramis, the Assyrian empress, and she could produce consumable soldiers without any restrictions.

"I'll go and select some Dragon Tooth Soldiers appropriately. Three thousand should be enough, right?"

"Three thousand?" Achilles, who lived in the ancient Greek era, clicked his tongue. "Although I have fought with dragon tooth soldiers a lot, is this number too excessive anyway?"

Shuo Yue on the side knew that although Black had been working overtime to produce the puppets, the number produced so far did not exceed one thousand.

"Generally speaking, it would be impossible at that time. But as long as I am in this sky garden, there is nothing I can't do."

Facing Achilles' question, Semiramis responded with a confident smile. That’s right, no matter which country this sky garden goes to, it will always function as her domain. All attributes have been strengthened, and even magic involving the magical field can be used freely.

Even the Assassin Empress, who is not good at magic, can rival the top magicians in it.

Of course, this comes at a cost. After all, this Noble Phantasm itself almost reaches the level of foul play. Semiramis will be incapacitated once he leaves this courtyard. However, this courtyard is a mobile fortress, and it is impossible to leave this courtyard.

"So, who will take the lead?"

As soon as Father Amakusa said this, Ta Miao, Heel and Karna looked at each other. Shakespeare and Shuo Yue, who did not plan to participate, showed the unique expressions of fun-loving people.

Karna was the first to exit, but Heel and Ta Miao were competing here. The Empress shrugged her shoulders incomprehensively, and Shakespeare said that he would dedicate poems of praise to the warriors who took the lead. Adding fuel to the fire.

"Hmm, I can also consider baking some apple pie as a reward~~"

As soon as Shuo Yue said this, the scene completely exploded. No one would say no to a man with excellent cooking skills, especially food made with golden apples - that was a delicacy that even the Greek gods had no chance to enjoy.

"...Please, you must discuss it in a peaceful way?" Amakusa whispered.

In the end, for the sake of the priest, the two of them took a step back, and finally decided that Achilles would take the lead, and Atalanta's Noble Phantasm was used for preemptive attacks.

"Anyway, I was planning to release the Noble Phantasm."

"I understand, then it's settled."

"This is the first time two people fight together, right? Do you want to write a love poem?"

In response to Shakespeare's proposal, Achilles replied with joy: "Oh, please."

But Atalanta snorted coldly, "No need."

So, Shakespeare combined the two people's opinions and decided to write a sad poem describing a lovelorn man - only to be stared at by Shuo Yue's rainbow blue eyes and died.

Amakusa, who was watching the heroes' mischief with a wry smile, now turned his attention to Milenia Castle beyond the dusk.   The heart starts to beat faster.

Ahhh, I know, I can feel it. It was indeed right there - in that city, in that place, there was indeed something that I had dreamed of for many years.

A sense of excitement suddenly filled his heart, and he couldn't help but try his best to suppress the smile on his face.

"Even a man like you can't hide his excitement in the situation right in front of you. You are really a child in this regard."

The trembling and the smile stopped at the same time. Amakusa cast a slightly dissatisfied look at the servant beside him.

"It's nothing, just being able to endure the urge to jump for joy is good. Compared to this, Master. Your death means my death, which means that all plans will come to nothing. You should understand very well, right?"

"Well, of course."

Facing the Master who responded calmly, the Empress sighed deeply:

"It's obvious that you still want to go to the battlefield. I really can't understand it. Now you are the Master who uses us, and you should not have set foot on the battlefield under any circumstances. It's obvious that this is the case, why do you still risk your life? Heading to the battlefield?"

After all, the empress has always been with Amakusa and is very aware of his strength. He shouldn't have any problem with robots and golems as opponents - but it's really hard to predict what the outcome of the battle with followers will be.

In short, as long as you pay careful attention, there will be no problem, but even if there is no problem... there are still eventualities. For her, letting Amakusa go to the battlefield was something she wanted to avoid at all costs. However, no matter how many times he said it, the stubborn young man still refused to give up the idea.

"Let me ask you one last time, why on earth did you do this?"

Amakusa hesitated for a moment, but finally seemed to make up his mind and answered in a calm voice:

"If my plan goes against God's will, I will definitely be eliminated on this battlefield. Maybe I will unfortunately die in the battle with my followers, or maybe I will be killed by a golem or an artificial man because of my carelessness. If not, you might even get caught in the activation range of your own Noble Phantasm and lose your life."

People will die, and followers will also die. It is a natural and everyday situation for a kind person to be involved in some unreasonable thing and meet a disastrous ending.

If you are an incorrect existence, you will definitely end up like that.

"If that's the case, I will accept death frankly. God has not forgiven me, and that is something that cannot be changed. But, if...if everything goes well -"

The Assyrian empress was shocked by her master's aura. It wasn't that Amakusa did anything. He just wiped away his usual smile and looked at his servant from the front.

There was no ferocity, rage, anger, or hatred in Amakusa's eyes. Instead, they were as calm as clear lake water. It was simply not the look that someone who was about to go into battle should have - it was really calm.

"That means that God has forgiven me for what I have done and has mercy on all people... My desire to obtain the Great Holy Grail is correct. As long as I understand this, I will no longer be confused, and betrayal will never be allowed. The betrayal has been rewarded."

Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, the sage of the Far East declared with determination. According to him, he went to the battlefield to confirm whether his purpose was correct.

To Semiramis, who had grown up with conspiracies and poisonings, that was simply a foolhardy act.

However——My Master probably has to do this. It is an extraordinary obsession that others cannot understand. In order to strengthen one's will to no longer be confused, this is an essential ritual.

"Well, to be honest, I really can't understand it."

"I guess so."

The white-haired boy smiled bitterly in return. Just as the empress said, others could not understand his thoughts. After all, just for the purpose of deciding whether he was right, he had to go to the battlefield where he could face death at any time.

I originally expected to face opposition, but Empress Semiramis declared as if she was ordering her subordinates:

"However, you can only move forward by doing this. Then there is no other way, I agree. Just fight to your heart's content and survive."

Thank you——Amakusa thanked her, and at the same time, the sky garden slowly stopped moving. Milenia Fortress is still ahead. There are woods on both sides between the sky courtyard and the fortress, with a grassland open in the center.

In other words, this is the venue for battle. The red servants and the Master Amakusa gathered at the bow of the sky garden.

"The war has begun, Amakusa."

The young man named Shuo Yue stepped on the wall with one foot. He had rarely spoken before, and finally showed an arrogant attitude, looking down at the panicked Milenia Fortress.

Then, he turned to look at Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, his sharp eyes dyed with azure iridescence.

"Just wish you and me all the best."

Staring into eyes that could kill souls, Amakusa looked at Sakuzuki intently for a while before smiling.

"it is good."
