Fate: I Was Defeated By Two Rituals At The Beginning

boom!

clatter!

At that moment, Jiang Yihong actually raised his Jiuzijianding and blocked the bullet with his scabbard.

Emiya Kiritsugu was horrified to find that a two-ceremony-looking goddess appeared behind Jiang Yihong.

But this time the goddess of nothingness did not strangle Jiang Yihong's neck, but chose to kiss Jiang Yihong's forehead.

[Successfully opening the pseudo-noble phantom "The Pure Love of the Goddess of Nothingness" consumes all 458/600 of the host's magic power and lasts four and a half minutes). 】

[Gives oneself an invincible penetration state, increases speed and strength three times, gives oneself a weakened and invalid state, and gives oneself the effect of restoring magic value every minute and restoring health points. 】

With the blessing of speed, Jiang Yihong used his "infinite martial arts". While blocking Emiya Kiritsugu's bullet, he had already pulled out the Kuji Kanesada and slashed at Emiya Kiritsugu.

This sweeping sword move was so fast that Emiya Kiritsugu was frightened.

"Inherent Temporal Control·Quadruple Speed!"

Emiya Kiritsugu used inherent temporal control to avoid Jiang Yihong's lightning-fast sword, quickly distanced himself, and then fired several shots at Jiang Yihong.

But with the blessing of the pseudo-noble phantom, Jiang Yihong's wounds actually recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In panic, Emiya Kiritsugu quickly ran away before the inherent time control was over.

puff!

Jiang Yihong suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

"This inherent temporal control is too disgusting, seeing yourself being shot but not being able to react."

Seeing that the magic value was recovering at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye, Jiang Yihong took advantage of the situation and used a treatment on himself. With the help of the pseudo-noble phantom, the injuries on his body quickly recovered.

"Where did Emiya Kiritsugu go?"

As soon as this question came to his mind, he instantly understood the answer.

No good - he must have gone to chop the Holy Grail!

Jiang Yihong immediately picked up Liang Si, then dragged Jiuyu Maimi and rushed upstairs.

At this time, in front of the big stage of the music auditorium, Artoria was looking at the Holy Grail shining with dazzling golden light in ecstasy.

"ah.....…"

"Irisviel..."

Artoria believed that the Holy Grail in front of her was made of Irisviel, although she had no idea how the organic matter of the android turned into the Holy Grail.

But as the "container of the Holy Grail", Irisviel was definitely determined to hand over the Holy Grail to Kiritsugu and herself, but Irisviel was not seen at all at the scene. The arrival of the Holy Grail was being carried out by an invisible hand. Controlling.

Recalling Irisviel's voice and smile, Artoria bit her lip in embarrassment.

He had violated his oath to her, and he had clearly sworn to protect her...

Just like he failed to save his motherland, he failed to eliminate the pain for his friends.

Although she felt guilty and humiliated, Artoria had already determined her wish. She must use the Holy Grail to realize her wish, just like Irisviel once said

Sample.

——Saber, you must get the Holy Grail for your dream of saving Britain and Kiritsugu's dream of saving the world.

"Yes! I will definitely keep my promise!" Artoria said firmly.

At this time, an undead-like silhouette wearing a windbreaker walked in.

"Emiya Kiritsugu..." Artoria looked at her with mixed emotions.

Then she shouted loudly to Emiya Kiritsugu who was across the rows of auditoriums: "Kiritsugu, have we won? Can we make a wish to the Holy Grail now?"

At this time, Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes were full of despair.

He looked at the Holy Grail on the big stage and had no idea what he was thinking about.

Artoria didn't understand, she had never understood this man.

"Kiritsugu, our wish is about to come true. You can save the world, and I can save Britain!" Arturia also shouted with almost crazy excitement.

"No, this thing can't save the world at all, it's just an evil weapon." Emiya Kiritsugu kept shaking his head and said.

"What? What do you mean? Kiritsugu!" Artoria roared.

Immediately afterwards, Emiya Kiritsugu raised his right hand, revealing the command spell engraved on the back of his hand.

Seeing this, Artoria couldn't help but panic, and roared: "Emiya Kiritsugu, there are no enemies now, why are you still holding the Command Seal?"

"Do you want to swallow the Holy Grail? Why are you so selfish and hate me so much?"

"I also have the right to make a wish to the Holy Grail, okay!"

However, she guessed wrong.

Emiya Kiritsugu said in low words: "In the name of Emiya Kiritsugu, I give this order with the Command Seal...

——Saber, use your Noble Phantasm to destroy the Holy Grail!"

"What?" Artoria's mind went blank for a moment.

What is going on? How should she understand the meaning of Emiya Kiritsugu's order?

Why destroy the Holy Grail? Why give up the opportunity to make a wish?

She didn't understand it at all.

Her body began to lose control, and the sword in her hand began to gather powerful beams of light.

"Emiya Kiritsugu, what is going on, what are you going to do?"

But Emiya Kiritsugu ignored her completely.

"No, it can't be like this!"

Under Artoria's strong thoughts, the sword's beams actually stopped converging.

She resisted the activation of the Noble Phantasm so fiercely that her slender body was almost torn apart.

This severe pain reminded her of the scene when Diarmait committed suicide. At this moment, she also experienced Diarmait's humiliation and unwillingness.

While resisting the powerful magic power, Artoria roared at Emiya Kiritsugu behind her:

0......Please give me flowers......

"Why—— Kiritsugu! Why did you destroy the Holy Grail!"

She couldn't understand. Based on her understanding of Emiya Kiritsugu, he clearly longed for the Holy Grail so much, but why did he reject the Holy Grail at this moment?

Does she want the magical ritual that her beloved wife realized at the cost of her life to be completely in vain?

Emiya Kiritsugu's face was ashen, and he didn't even bother to explain to this dreaming knight king.

Seeing that Artoria was actually able to resist the command of the Command Seal, Emiya Kiritsugu raised his right hand again, with the last Command Seal on it.

"I order again with the last command spell."

"Stop!" Seeing that her pride and hope would soon be wiped out in an instant, Arturia screamed with tears in her eyes.

"I command you, Saber, to destroy the Holy Grail for me!"

Under the suppression of the two command spells, Artoria finally couldn't resist.

.............0

The release of this Noble Phantasm drained all the magic power from her body, and the huge beam of light erupted from the light of destruction instantly flooded the entire music auditorium.

The super curry stick's beam shot up into the sky, instantly destroying the entire Civic Hall.

The Holy Grail slowly dissipated in the dazzling light, and Artoria closed her eyes. She couldn't bear to look at the scene in front of her.

——Her last hope was shattered.

Her spirit body is slowly dissipating due to the exhaustion of magic power. Emiya Kiritsugu has lost all the command spells. The contractual relationship between the two is over. It is impossible for her to rely on him in the form of spirit body. Miyagiri Tsubasa's magic survives.

It was only at this last moment that she failed to build a relationship of mutual trust and mutual understanding with Emiya Kiritsugu.

He is obviously a father who dotes on his lovely daughter, a warrior who hopes to save the world, and a murderer who is disappointed with justice. He shows various contradictory fragments of human nature, but why does he betray everything and deny everything in the end?

In the end, the only thing that remained consistent was his inner coldness and ruthlessness.

After all, she still couldn't understand Emiya Kiritsugu's thoughts.

- This reminded her of Lancelot's words, "You don't understand people's hearts at all."

"Ah...I see. It turns out that this is how Lancelot feels. A king who only knows how to pursue his own ideas alone and does not communicate with others at all. It turns out that this is how it is...

At this time, she realized even more what Jiang Yihong said about mutual understanding and communication.

She slowly dissipated in self-mockery.

At this time, Jiang Yihong came over with two women, patted Artoria on the shoulder and said:

"Can you please stop rushing to achieve enlightenment and think about whether you want to be my follower?"

Please give me a flower knife!
