Holy Grail War? Dragon Ball Wars!.

Chapter 618 618. Give it up?
"Oh, you're back early today, Iori."

As soon as Kenshin returned to the long house, he saw the red book floating in the air welcoming him.

He is one of Miyamoto Iori's "relatives" and the "legacy" left by his master Miyamoto Musashi.

A magic book that can speak
“Because I’m not the only one doing this.”

"Saber also helped a lot."

When talking about this, Iori simply put the food he was carrying on the straw mat after entering the door and answered.

If it were in the past, he might have spent more time, but with a helper like Ying Ling, it is no exaggeration to say that he can get twice the result with half the effort.

"But you can't be too relaxed."

"After all, you were dragged into that war, and there's no telling when the enemy might attack."

Persuaded by the old man's tone, Iori just nodded.

He certainly did not forget the environment he was in.

Being surrounded and attacked by Jing Zhengxue before was already a very dangerous situation.

Faced with a more severe Dragon Ball War, we will never let down our guard.

But even if he was involved in this incident, he couldn't just not live his life, right?
So we still have to do our daily work.

As for the idea of ​​moving residence, Iori had not considered it.

He was just an unemployed wanderer who occasionally went to the magistrate's office to take on some "work".

Those who live in thatched huts in this sparsely populated area are not considered wealthy.

As for her younger sister Xiangye who lives elsewhere, it is even more impossible for her to implicate the other party.

He has also tried to reduce contact with him during this period.

No matter what, I don't want that relative to know about this.

"Well, you should understand even without my nagging."

"You are confident in your own mind, my old man is very relieved."

With deep faith in Iori in front of him, the Ruby Book swayed in the air.

"Indeed, with the Master's ability, he can even fight against a Heroic Spirit."

It's not really flattery, but a fact that Kenshin confirmed after coming into contact with him.

This master is a "trained man" and has an excellent foundation. He is not the kind of weak human being.

The sword skills that he honed day and night would never let him down.

This can be seen from the fact that Masayuki sent a group of people to surround and kill him but failed, and still needed Kojiro to lead the charge.

Most ordinary opponents are no match for Iori.

It only becomes difficult when encountering servants.

"Let's eat first."

Iori did not show any pride at being praised, but shook his head and spoke.

Sitting on the floor, that was considered ordinary "simple meals".

"Saber, can I ask you something?"

Looking at the very quiet Kenshin, Iori suddenly spoke.

"what's up?"

"You don't seem to be in a hurry?"

He expressed the doubts that had been in his mind. He didn't quite understand the thoughts of his servant.

dragon ball war
The winner will have the right to realize his or her wish.

This should be an extremely tempting "bait", but for some reason, Iori could not sense the urgent desire to win from the opponent.

Even though he had encountered a strong swordsman like Kojiro before, his calm state of mind was a bit strange.

"Heh, isn't it the same for you, Iori?"

"Rather, as a Master, you are quite 'lax'."

Hearing this, Kenshin put down his bowl and chopsticks and said.

"Uh I just..."

If an ordinary master encountered such a thing, he would have started to make all kinds of plans and thoughts. But Iori lived his daily life like an ordinary person.

He also did not take the initiative to look for other Masters and Servants, as if he were an irrelevant person.

This is not to say that Iori has no ideas, but he is in a state of following his usual habits.

Even if you are suddenly involved in this mysterious war, it doesn't mean you need to do anything in a big way.

He did not have such grand ambitions; he only hoped for peace in Edo and tranquility for the people.

If you hold the Dragon Ball in your hand, enemies like Yui Masayuki will come to you.

So there is no need to run around like a headless fly or arrive in an unfamiliar area and cause trouble.

They come, the security
Iori appeared to be submitting to this arrangement.

“It makes no difference to me.”

"If I really have to say this time, what I crave is not victory."

Looking at Iori's expression, Kenshin smiled slightly and spoke softly.

"Oh? Are you serious?"

The Book of Red Jade floated nearby, and was shocked as it was the first time it heard of such a thing.

Those summoned for war are obviously those who have wishes and needs. If Saber did not have such thoughts, how could she be chosen?
"My greatest wish is to survive this war."

Without hiding anything, Kenshin revealed the secret.

"To live?"

Muttering, Iori stroked his chin with one hand, not knowing what he was thinking.

“What a strange wish.”

"But wouldn't it be easy to do if we just hid it?"

I don't quite understand Kenshin's approach. If he wants to survive rather than win in the end, there should be many ways to do it.

"That might be a solution."

"Well, if Iori was willing to give up the Dragon Ball, maybe there wouldn't be any trouble."

Hearing the words of the Ruby Book, Kenshin just moved his chopsticks slightly, then he opened his eyes and looked at the Master in front of him.

Dragon Ball
Get out.
These words brought Iori back to his senses, and he subconsciously reached out and touched the orange bead with stars inside in his pocket.

That is a mysterious item that suddenly appears on you when you are chosen.
If you give this to others, maybe you can return to your old life.

After all, the condition of this war is not to kill other masters and servants.

Just like Saber said, if he didn't want to get involved, he could just throw it out, and no one would worry about him withdrawing.

But for some reason, Iori felt like he couldn't let go of the sword as it was tightly held in his hand.

Reluctant?

It seems like there is a bit like that.
But why do we have such emotions?
He obviously didn't want it.
(Do not)

If he didn't have a wish, he wouldn't be chosen, so he must have something deep in his heart.
Shaking his head, Iori didn't think about it that deeply.

Just think of it as being uneasy.
right.
Simply giving this thing to other masters and servants is not known what kind of wish it is trying to achieve.

If this causes danger to the people of Edo, we cannot give it up easily.

so.
It is safest and most reliable to hold it in your own hands.

Yes, we cannot give the Dragon Balls to those guys who don’t know the details without permission.

As if to comfort himself, Iori felt "relieved".

It is obviously very dangerous to keep the Dragon Ball with him, but he has an irrepressible "excitement".

It’s just that I haven’t yet noticed the gradually awakening “desire”.

"."

Seeing the Master remaining silent, Kenshin was not surprised.

Miyamoto Iori
That hidden nature would surface sooner or later, so he planned to see what the other party would think in the end.

Unlike himself who moved from troubled times to peaceful times, Iori is a person who lives in a peaceful era but "yearns" for troubled times.
