Jewel Weng, Hei Ji, Solomon, everyone can plot against me.

Fortunately, Youzhu's IQ is online, and Master Ai Lei frequently saves the scene. Luo Li said that she really only wants to live a peaceful life.

Chapter 43 The Banquet of the Heroic Spirits ([-])

The loud shouts of the Mountain Man and Gilgamesh made the atmosphere of the banquet, which had just eased up, fall into deathly silence once again.

No matter what the two said, it was enough to attract the attention of everyone present, but if Gilgamesh's remarks only made the followers feel hostile.

The words of the old man of the mountain not only attracted the attention of the followers, but also aroused Tohsaka Tokiomi's heart palpitations.

"No, it shouldn't be. Servant, how can there be a follower who knows the essence and truth of the Holy Grail?"

Tohsaka Tokiomi, who knew the scene through the Baimao Hassan No. 2 camera and the audio broadcast by Kotomine Kirei, slammed his fists hard on the mahogany table.

All the elegance of the past was thrown into outer space by him for a while, replaced by panic and bewilderment, as well as a touch of incomprehensible hesitation.

"Why do the servants of the Matou family know this? Could it be that Matou Weng confessed? No, this is absolutely impossible!"

The Holy Grail in Fuyuki City is not the real Holy Grail held by Galahad, one of the Knights of the Round Table in history, but a fake.

To put it bluntly, Fuyuki's Great Holy Grail is just a source of magic power that condenses huge magic power.

Since this Holy Grail is an 'artificial object', it is not impossible to realize wishes, but only those within the scope of human ability can be realized.

As for the unrealistic desires that are beyond the scope of human capabilities, such as reversing time and space or world peace, don't talk about it.

'Universal wishing machine'?

This gimmick was publicized from the very beginning to allow foolish magicians other than Yusanjia to join the battle.

The reason Tohsaka Tokiomi was so flustered was naturally because he had deceived Gilgamesh from the very beginning.

The Holy Grail, being a counterfeit, is not a worthy treasure at all, and it is not even a treasure.

After taking a few steps back and forth, Tohsaka Tokiomi stabilized his emotions, and sent Kotomine Kirei an order to keep an eye on the banquet scene at all times.

He raised his hand and looked at the two remaining Command Seals on the back of his hand, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he made a decision and plan for the next worst development.

If the King of Heroes really learned the truth about the Holy Grail War through the Old Man of the Mountain as expected, then it is time to ask the King to execute himself in order to protect himself.

As long as the Tohsaka family survives, after another 60 years, there is still a chance to hold the Fifth Holy Grail War again to fulfill their long-cherished wish.

By the way, it is necessary to leave corresponding family instructions, so that future generations will remember never to try to summon the hero king again.

While Tohsaka Tokiomi was making various plans, Irisviel, who was also a member of the Gosan Clan, didn't notice anything wrong at all.

From the beginning, Ahad, the Patriarch of Einzbern, only told her about her duty as the Lesser Holy Grail and her fate of dying, and didn't say much about the rest.

But Ahad didn't feel the slightest bit wrong with his own actions in his heart. An abandoned child who is sure to die and a disposable tool, the two are just a simple matter of using and being used from the beginning. relation.

Therefore, Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel have always firmly believed that the Holy Grail is the existence that can grant any wish, and they did not hesitate to risk their lives for this.

"Oh? Opinions are opposing again?"

Iskandar shook his head left and right, looked at the old man of the mountain and Gilgamesh each, clapped his palm-like big hands together twice, and suggested.

"Since this is the case, let the King of Heroes who once owned the Holy Grail talk about what the Holy Grail is like. After all, the old man of the mountain has bluntly denied the existence of the Holy Grail."

"I don't know, I don't know what the Holy Grail is either."

Facing Iskandar's question, Gilgamesh gave an answer that no one present had expected, making everyone feel inconsistent.

But Gilgamesh didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what he said. While shaking the wine glass in his hand, he continued to explain:

"The amount of wealth in this king's treasury has already exceeded this king's knowledge, but as long as it is a treasure, it must belong to this king."

Facing Gilgamesh's unreasonable statement, Arturia did not sneer or refute after knowing the other party's real name.

"But with your strength and wealth, it's impossible to care about such a small Holy Grail, right? So what made you come here?"

Iskandar continued to ask Gilgamesh, hoping to inadvertently extract more useful information.

"It's the law, it's the law set by this king."

Gilgamesh glanced at the servants present with his scarlet snake eyes, lifted his chin slightly, and said loudly:

"Dare to take out this king's things without authorization and fight for it. As a thief, even if you are thick-skinned, you have to have a limit? This king should punish those who break the law!"

"Are you implementing the laws you set? It seems that there is no possibility of peace talks between us."

Hearing this, Iskandar scratched his cheek in distress, and turned his gaze to the side of the mountain man with interest.

"What about your statement? After all, this is the Holy Grail War. Denying the existence of the Holy Grail is a bit outrageous."

The old man of the mountain was silent for a moment, and his majestic and deep voice slowly sounded, carrying a wave of firm belief.

"I have never seen the Holy Grail, and I don't know if the Holy Grail is as magical as the legend, but the idea of ​​getting something for nothing through the Holy Grail is absolutely not advisable."

The old man of the mountain, who had already learned the truth of the Holy Grail War from the restraining force, did not bluntly expose this lie that had been maintained for hundreds of years.

After all, the purpose of his coming this time is to end this farce, so the Holy Grail War must continue normally.

"So that's the case, then why did you come if you, the man of the mountain, didn't have a wish? The King of Heroes is to carry out his own will, and what are you?"

Artoria, who had been sitting quietly at the stone table and sipping wine, asked Iskandar her doubts ahead of him.

The girl undoubtedly chose to respond to the summoning because of her own wish, but now the other servants participating in the battle say that the reason for her coming is not for the Holy Grail, which makes her very puzzled.

"Is there a reason for coming?"

The old man on the mountain muttered something to himself, and looked up at the incomparably deep night sky. The dark fire in his eyes was erratic, and he looked very pious and solemn.

"I'm just an undead lurking in the darkness. The reason why I show up here is because I heard the bell and I'm following the guidance of the destiny."

Chapter 44 The Banquet of the Heroic Spirits ([-])

The words of the old man of the mountain were a bit mysterious. Although few masters and servants present could understand them, their serious attitude prevented them from questioning anything.

"Follow the instructions of destiny?"

Artoria muttered softly to herself, remembering the sad wish she was carrying, and felt for a moment that this was the fate she had to go through as a king.

"Then what is destiny? What is destiny guiding you to do?"

Arturia asked the mountain man a more specific question, and the others waited with bated breath for the mountain man's answer.

If this question can get a clear answer, then the purpose of the old man of the mountain will be completely clear, and this will also have a direct impact on how the royal masters of all parties will arrange their combat strategies in the future.

"The time of destiny has not yet come, and I have not yet received the corresponding enlightenment."

The old man of the mountain didn't seem to want to spend too much time entangled in this issue. The person entrusted by the restraining force to be killed has not yet appeared, but the old man is not in a hurry.

"However, I'm sure that this goal will never be to compete for the Holy Grail, and the meaning of my participation in the war will be revealed sooner or later."

Seeing that he couldn't ask more questions from the old man on the mountain, Iskandar decisively brought the topic to the next person.

"Diarmuid, you probably don't want the Holy Grail like the two of them, do you? After all, according to the stories that have been handed down, your life is full of regrets."

Diarmuid, who had been standing in front of the background board, obviously did not expect that his name would be called so quickly. The handsome knight froze for a moment, showing a hearty and sincere smile.

"On the contrary, the King of Conquerors. I don't really care much about the Holy Grail, either."

"I responded to the Holy Grail's call this time, all in order to completely dedicate my loyalty to my lord."

While speaking, Diarmuid stood up and gave a standard knight salute to Kenneth who was staying with Weber outside the courtyard. He solemnly and solemnly demonstrated his unquestionable will.

"And if the Holy Grail is what the lord wants, even if I, Diarmuid, will be smashed to pieces, I will do my best to get it back from the lord!"

"Admirable spirit. Diarmuid, it seems that there will be a battle between you and me."

Artoria, who was also a knight, solemnly put down the wine glass in her hand. The girl's holy blue eyes were full of fighting intent, and the hair around her ears was blown up by the surging magic power.

"Of course, I, Diarmuid, will definitely come to challenge me in the future, in order to seek justice for my lord!"

The two raised their wine glasses and touched each other lightly, and then took a sip each, which was considered to be an agreement on a duel between the knights.

At the same time, Iskandar felt a little depressed.

He felt that this Holy Grail War was really abnormal. Heroic spirits responded to the call and came as servants, but few of them really came for the Holy Grail.

Iskandar stroked his thick beard with his hands helplessly, and looked at the only person present who hadn't spoken yet.

"King Arthur, you didn't come here for the Holy Grail, did you? If that's the case, let this king, who is seeking the Holy Grail, not know what to say."

"No, I chose to answer the call because I had a wish that could only be realized with the help of the Holy Grail."

Arturia subconsciously sat up a little bit more, and before anyone asked a question, she frankly stated her purpose.

"Saving my hometown, Britain, which was destroyed in the flames of war, means that I want to change the fate of my country's ultimate destruction. This is my duty as King Arthur."

Arturia's words caused waves like a small pebble thrown into a lake. Every follower's expression and movement changed more or less, expressing his attitude from the details.

Diarmuid quietly acted as the listener, and Gilgamesh also temporarily chose to watch the play.

"King Arthur, are you regretting that the decision you made led to the demise of the country?"

Iskandar's burgundy eyes fixed on Arturia who was sitting across from her, as if she had participated in a Greek lecture or debate competition.

"No, I'm not remorseful, just mourning."

Artoria shook her head and denied the King of Conquerors' speculation, recalling her homeland that had been ravaged by the war, her expression was rather complicated.

"King of Conquerors, the huge empire you built with your own hands fell apart in an instant after you died, right? Don't you feel sad about this?"

Iskandar choked on Artoria's sharp question, but quickly expressed his own point of view and attitude.

"It will be sad, but I will not choose to change anything! History is the inevitable result of many factors. This is a chapter written by me and my ministers, so there is nothing to regret."

"That's right! If in a country, even the king wouldn't feel the pain of her destruction, what would the people under his leadership think?"

Artoria stood up and looked down at Iskandar, refusing to budge in the conflict of ideas of being king.

"However, as a banner leading the country, the nation and the people, the king must set an example instead of turning a blind eye and doing nothing!"

Iskandar, as the overlord who leads the country on the road of foreign conquest and expansion, is very puzzled by the thoughts of Arturia, the king who saves the country from danger.

But before he could continue to refute the question, the old man of the mountain raised his doubts first.

"Do you want to change the established history? King Arthur."

As one of the seven crowns, the Old Man of the Mountain knows that if this wish is really granted to the Holy Grail, there must be another batch of karoshi who need to be restrained to work overtime.

"Do you know what the consequences of this wish will be? That is enough to affect and change the subsequent changes in the entire history of mankind."

The man on the mountain's words made Artoria freeze in place like a slap in the face. Before, she was only focused on how to save the country, and she never thought of other problems.

"Of course! Even if it will cause a series of chain reactions, I will choose to bear all of this. This is the path I choose. As a king, I will lead the people to obtain real peace and happiness."

As a king, the girl didn't think too much about it, and protecting the interests of her own country was her most correct choice.

"The king gives the people the harmony and stability they want, and the people offer their loyalty to support the king. The two are interdependent in this way."

"Therefore, the king must fulfill his duty!"

The man on the mountain didn't express any opinion on Artoria's perception of his domineering way. What he cared about was something more important than this, namely the stability of human history.

"Is that so? It seems that your will is very firm."

Looking at the determination and fearlessness shining in Arturia's piercing holy blue eyes, the man of the mountain understood that he could not persuade her to give up his unrealistic ideas through words.

The old man of the mountain, who was already bored with the banquet, disappeared from his seat without a sound, leaving only a stern warning.

"I hope you will take care of yourself, otherwise, sooner or later, I will follow the destiny and cut off your head!"

ps: Yesterday's financial report (recommendation ticket 609, monthly ticket 25, reward 300, blade 12)
