At this time, the important thing is not victory, but the difference in combat strength between the enemy and us.
It would be best if one of the Servants could be dealt with smoothly. Even if it couldn't, it would be enough if Saber and Lancer could be cornered.
"It will take about ten minutes to gather all the Assassins."
"Very well, order, although this is a big gamble, luckily we have nothing to lose even if we fail."
To Tokiomi, the Assassin was just one of the means used to capture the Holy Grail, a tool that was thrown away after it was used.
This perception was also fully reflected in his disciple Kotomine Kirei.
After Tokiomi finished speaking, he changed his sitting position and poured another cup of tea into the cup at the same time.
He sniffed the black tea happily and waited for the results of the actions he had ordered.
————————————————————————————————————————————————————
After Saber revealed his purpose for participating in the Holy Grail War, Archer and Rider seemed to have not expected to hear such a purpose, and fell into a brief silence.
Saber felt very strange, even if her words were full of momentum, but the two "kings" she faced were not people who would be easily shocked, and it was impossible for them to understand the meaning of her words.
Clear and clear, there is nothing strange, this is her king's way, whether it is praise or refutation, someone should put it up immediately.
But... no one spoke.
"I said...Knight King, I must have heard it wrong, right?"
Rider finally spoke and broke the silence.
"You mean you want to 'change destiny'? That is, to subvert history?"
"Yes, no matter how hard a wish may be, as long as you have the almighty Holy Grail, it will surely come true."
Saber proudly asserted that by now Saber finally understood why the atmosphere between the two was so strange.
"Ah, Saber? I want to make sure... that the destruction of Britain should have been a matter of your time, when you ruled?"
"Yes! So I can't forgive myself."
When Saber heard the words, her tone became firmer.
"So I'm not reconciled and want to change that ending! It's because of me that I led to that ending..."
Suddenly, someone let out a happy laugh.
It was a vulgar laughter that ignored any understanding, and this laughter came from Archer's mouth, which radiated golden light.
Facing this great humiliation, Saber's face was full of anger.
Her most cherished thing was being mocked by Archer.
"...Archer, what's so funny."
Not minding Saber's anger, Archer replied intermittently while laughing:
"Proclaiming himself a king... being praised by all the people... How could such a person be unwilling? Hahaha! How can people not laugh at this? Saber, you are the best clown!"
Beside Archer who was laughing non-stop, Rider also frowned and looked at Saber with some displeasure.
"Wait, wait for the King of Knights first, do you want to deny the history you created?"
Saber, who has never had any doubts about his ideals, will naturally not be questioned by him at this moment.
"Exactly, is it surprising? Is it ridiculous? As a king, the country for which I sacrificed my life has been destroyed. What absurdity do I mourn its destruction!?"
The answer to her was another burst of hilarious laughter from Archer, making one wonder if he'd be out of breath in the next second.
"Hey, did you hear Rider! This little girl who calls herself the King of Knights... actually said "dedicated to the country"!"
The answer to Archer was Rider's deepening silence.
This is for Saber.It's the same insult as being laughed at.
"I don't understand what's funny about this. As a king, I should stand up and work hard for the prosperity of my country!"
"No, you are wrong!"
Rider firmly and seriously denied Saber. .
Chapter 45
"you are wrong."
Rider firmly and solemnly denied her words.
"It is not the king who sacrifices himself, but the country and the people who dedicate their everything to the king. Make no mistake about this."
"What did you say--"
Saber couldn't hold back her anger any longer, she shouted.
"—Isn't that a tyrant! Rider, Archer, it's a big mistake for you to be such a king!"
"True, but we're not just tyrants, we're heroes."
Rider replied calmly, without even moving his eyebrows.
"So Saber, if there is a king who is dissatisfied with the results of his governance of the country, it can only mean that he is a fool, worse than a tyrant."
Unlike Archer who kept laughing at Saber, Rider fundamentally denied her.
Saber frowned and retorted in a sharp tone.
"Iskandar, you... the empire you created was finally divided into four parts, is there really no reconciliation? Don't you want to do it all over again and save the country?"
"Do not want to."
The King of Conquerors replied immediately, holding his chest out, looking directly into the stern gaze of the King of Knights.
"If my decision and my courtiers lead to such a result, then destruction is inevitable, I will mourn, and I will cry, but I will never regret it."
"how come……"
"Not to mention trying to subvert history! This stupid behavior is an insult to all the human beings in the era I built!"
For Rider's arrogant words, Saber denied:
"You're just saying this based on the glory of the warrior. The people don't think so. What they need is salvation."
"You mean they want the king's deliverance?"
Rider shrugged and laughed.
"I don't understand! What's the point of this kind of thing?"
"This is the duty of a king!"
This time it was Saber's turn to speak proudly:
"Right rule, right order, this is what all subjects expect."
"So are you the 'correct' slave?"
"You can say that. Dedicating your life to your ideals is worthy of being a king."
Without a trace of doubt, the young knight king nodded.
"People can understand law and order through the king, and the king should not embody something that will disappear with the death of the king, but something more noble."
Looking at Saber who was still determined, Rider on the side shook his head as if pitying her.
"It's not a path of survival that a man would choose."
"Yes, since you are born as a king, you can't expect to live the life of ordinary people."
In order to become the perfect monarch, in order to become the embodiment of ideals, she is willing to give up her body and throw away her personal relationships.
The life of a girl named Arturia changed completely the moment she pulled that sword out of the rock.
Since then, she has become synonymous with undefeated legends, hymns and dreams.
There has been pain, there has been trouble, but it contains the glory of victory.
The belief that will never change supports her sword-holding arm to this day.
King of Conquerors, someone like you who only cares about yourself will not understand my beliefs, you are just an overlord who is carried away by desire!"
Saber snapped.
Rider, who was reprimanded, immediately opened his eyes.
"A king without desire is better than a vase."
Rider's rage and his huge body made him even more terrifying.
"Saber, you just said 'dedicate yourself to your ideals'. Indeed, you used to be a clean saint, unparalleled in holiness. But who would expect to be martyred for an ideal? Who would think day and night for the so-called saint , can only comfort the people, but cannot guide the people. Only by showing desire and sing-along the most glorious glory, can the country and the people be led to the right path.”
After drinking the wine in the cup, the Conqueror King then corrected.
"As a king, you must have stronger desires than anyone, be bolder than anyone, and be more irritable than anyone. He should be a human who contains purity and turbidity, and is more real than anyone. Only in this way , Only the ministers can be convinced by the king, and the people will have the longing of 'If only I were the king'!"
"Such governance... so where's the justice?"
"No. There is no justice in the way of kings, so there is no remorse."
"..."
His assertion was too blunt, and Saber was already furious.
"Such a concept is indeed correct, but it is too advanced, and it is indeed not feasible in that era..."
Shirou lowered his head to think and couldn't help groaning.
"Oh?" Rider asked suspiciously.
"Master of Lancer, do you have your own opinion?"
Since it was Rider who took the initiative to ask the question, although Archer showed a trace of unhappiness, he didn't get angry because of it, lest others think that his bearing as a king was nothing more than that. After all, there were two "kings" watching.
The King of Heroes, who considers himself the only king in the sky and the world, is also very face-saving.
"Opinion... Well, it should be considered. From my point of view as a "common man", I think that among the "kings" present, only the King of Knights is the most reassuring. She is different from you, she is really there Worrying about the civilians in Britain, and in your eyes, civilians may not even have the qualifications to be seen, right?"
As for the other two, Gilgamesh and Iskandar.
