I don't like the gods, I want to be a hero

'The price is to save each [world] when we need it. Of course, you have the right to refuse. '

"That's really all there is?" Serius was a little skeptical, because this contract was so in line with his wishes.

"You should know that if it is just to save the world, I will not refuse it at all. Does the power that can be refused represent a problem that I cannot accept in the task of saving the world."

'You are truly special, Seleus. '

'The contract is only to determine your belonging, and does not impose any constraints on you. '

"Actually, I still have some concerns..."

'But you don't have any choice now, do you? '

Seleus fell into silence, just like the restraining force said, now he has no choice at all, he still has a lot of things to do, and there are still many people he hasn't met, thinking that he still has so many promises to fulfill, Seleus was so eager for that contract.

Inhibition is really heartless.Obviously he has already made the determination to enter the eternal sleep, but they want to tear a crack in that determination.

"In this case... I can promise your contract."

'It was the right choice...'

......

The Holy Grail was once the golden cup that held Jesus' blood.

In different myths and legends, the Holy Grail has also been endowed with various meanings.

If gods are life born from thoughts, then the Holy Grail, which has gathered all kinds of meanings and has the highest standard of mystery, is the real holy thing.

Based on the mystery and legend of the Holy Grail, in order to reach the "root" of the world, the alliance composed of magicians, saints, and justice partners relied on the name of the Holy Grail to set up a ritual magic called "Holy Grail War".

Using the souls of seven heroes from the past and the future as a medium, and using the magic power accumulated in the Fuyuki Leyline for 60 years to open the door to the root, this is the essence of the 'Holy Grail War'...

......

In the cold castle, a little girl in purple pajamas was sitting on the edge of her bed, shaking her white and tender feet.

As if sensing something, the cute snow elf-like girl trotted to the window.

Seeing a black figure shuttle through the forest, the little girl let out a joyful voice. "He's back! Kiritsugu is back!"

She happily ran down the stairs all the way, and then bounced to the front door.

"Welcome back, Kiritsugu..."

Except for the cold wind and snow hitting the little girl's face, there was nothing in front of the gate.

No one came back, no one came back...

The smile on the little girl's face gradually disappeared, and her eyes gradually became dark.

At this time, two black arms with blood-colored lines suddenly embraced the absent-minded little girl.

"...Mother."

......

Ilya, who was wearing a purple dress and a white pleated skirt, was looking at the two new maids with cold eyes.

"Miss, we are the maids who are here to serve you. I am Sera, and this is..."

"Don't waste time, it doesn't matter what the name is, anyway, you two are the same." Ilya with a cold face interrupted the maid's self-introduction impatiently.

"Where are the Servants?"

"Ahadion has prepared the legendary holy relic, and because it is too precious, I need you to summon it yourself." The maid who knew that the lady was in a bad mood bowed her head respectfully.

"The legendary relic? Which hero's relic could make him so careful?"

The old man's heart, which was colder than ice and snow, felt the precious sacred relic aroused Illya's curiosity. She wanted to know which hero could make the old man give up the traditional performing arts of Einzbern.

"It is the flower of hope that quietly blooms, the great Greek hero Seleus..."

Chapter 2 Calling

The cold wind blows snow, covering everything in the world with a layer of whiteness. In the depths of the frozen forest, there stands a mysterious castle isolated from the world.

Einzbern, the Snow Clan longing for the relief of all mankind lives in this eternal frozen land.

"The cup of heaven, the third method of materializing the soul and the relief of all mankind, Einzbern's long-cherished wish for a thousand years will be fulfilled in this Holy Grail War!"

The old man with white beard and hair carefully held a few gold coins full of cracks, and his ice-like heart seemed to start to melt when he got the legendary holy relic.

"Where is Illya? Where is she now?"

"Miss has been notified, and she should be here soon." The artificial maid who was accompanying her replied respectfully.

"Send someone to urge you. The perfect holy relic is already in our hands. She needs to summon the great Greek hero as soon as possible, and then make preparations in advance with our Einzbern technology. In this case..."

A frenzy flashed in the old man's eyes. Thinking that the millennium long-cherished wish was about to be realized in his hands, even this man-made old man who had lived for two centuries couldn't help being a little emotional.

"No need to urge, Grandpa Ahad."

The heavy door was opened, and a girl with long silver hair and red eyes, like a snow elf, came in front of the old man.

"I'm already here."

Ilya raised the hem of her skirt and bowed to the old man. This was out of upbringing and habit, not the "grandfather" that the girl said.

Although the old man and Ilya are grandparents in name, they don't actually have any blood relationship.Salutes and greetings are not like the intimacy between grandparents, but more like reports from subordinates to their superiors, or greetings from maids to their masters.

You know, even Illya's mother, Alice, also called the old man in front of her "grandpa" when she faced her.

Because the title 'Grandfather' is nothing more than a privilege that Einzbern's highest masterpiece faces the patriarch of the family without any meaning.

The appearance of Ilya calmed down Ahadeon's excited heart. The old man took a deep look at Ilya, and then said indifferently: "Ilyasfiel, you are ready to complete the Ain Are you ready for Zbern's thousand-year long-cherished wish?"

"Yes, for the Heaven's Cup of the third method."

Illya also responded indifferently, and as if to prove her determination, she activated her magic power to make dense scarlet lines appear on her face and body.

If these scarlet lines on the girl's body were seen by other magicians, then no matter what level of magician they are, they would exclaim loudly, 'This is impossible'.

Because even for a famous magic family like Edfelt that has been passed down for nearly a thousand years, their best successors can be said to have a hundred magic circuits, and the girl Ilya has the highest quality nerves all over her body. Waiting for the magic circuit.

She is the pinnacle of artificial human beings, cannot be copied, cannot be surpassed, the ultimate product of Einzbern's research for thousands of years, the existence of Illya itself represents a miracle.

Her father is a magician, and her mother is also a masterpiece of Einzbern. The girl named Illya was magically adjusted when she was a fetus. The magic circuit has the characteristics of a command spell, and can even be used directly as a command spell.

Whether it is to force the servants or increase the battle, each of her magic circuits can do these miracles unscrupulously, and because of these characteristics, Illya has become the most hopeful and the last in Einzbern. trump card.

"Ilyasfiel, the magic circuit in your body that crushes the group of magicians allows you to transform magic power most effectively, and also makes you the most qualified master in the history of the Holy Grail War."

"Now, as the best master, you have to summon the most powerful hero that the family has provided for you. Einzbern's painstaking efforts for thousands of years is up to you to give the answer!"

The old man's voice was chillingly cold, and he didn't care at all that the death of the young girl Illya was the prerequisite for fulfilling Einzbern's so-called millennium long-cherished wish.

Illya is also very clear about what kind of future is waiting for her. Under this premise, she also nodded indifferently.

The girl in Snow City is very sober. Although she is the highest and greatest miracle of Einzbern, in the theory of the Snow Clan, she is still a consumable that can be measured by material value, but it is more precious , There is a price but no market.

Therefore, after losing all happiness, she no longer regards life as important, even if it is her own life.

After confirming the determination shown by the family's last hope, the old man nodded in satisfaction, and then carefully placed the gold coin in his hand in the magic circle drawn by Illya's blood on the ground.

This is the crystallization used to summon the third method, that is, the ritual pattern of the existence of the 'heroic spirit', so it can naturally be called a magic circle.

Standing in front of the magic circle, the girl raised her arms and began the summoning ceremony of the heroic spirit.

Immediately, the magic circuit on Illya's body and the command spell on the back of her hand glowed scarlet. Huge magic power surged in this young body, and the magic circle on the ground immediately shone with mysterious brilliance.

"...The wind comes from the sky and the wall separates it. The door opens and the four sides are closed. It comes out from the crown, and goes back and forth on the three-way road to the kingdom..."

The girl uttered an ancient and obscure incantation, and she could feel a large amount of magic power in her body draining as the incantation was chanted. She summoned a Servant before the Holy Grail War even started, even if she, Einzbern, Masterpieces also seem extraordinarily laborious.

But thankfully, the summoning ceremony went very smoothly.

"Attention to add a sentence - 'Make your eyes cloudy, your heart violent, prisoner trapped by the threshold of madness, I am the master of this chain'."

The old man at the side suddenly gave orders to Ilya, and this also made Ilya who was calling look at her 'grandpa' in confusion.

"Gorgeous heroes will always bring all kinds of unexpected troubles. This is the most critical and last ceremony, so naturally we must learn from it." The old man who had experienced many failures told his experience.

"Although the noble hero known as the Flower of Hope will most likely agree with our long-cherished wish of Einzbern, too much free will may still bring us some unmanageable variables."

"Thinking of it this way, depriving the hero of his sanity may be the best solution for our Einzbern."

The words that wantonly trampled on the hero's dignity were uttered by the old man without any scruples. Naturally, this artificial man who regards himself as a prop in order to realize the ambition of the "Cup of Heaven" will not care about the will of others, even if the other party is his hard-working man. The same goes for heroes who have worked so hard to summon them.

"However, what should the hero do if he loses control? Not only is the safety of the eldest lady not guaranteed at all, but the combat power is also a question that cannot be ignored..."

Almost as soon as the old man finished speaking, Sera, who had been serving Illya all along, raised questions eagerly.

The old man's cold eyes stabbed at the agitated Sierra for a moment, and he did not explain slowly until the maid who protected the lord lowered her head tremblingly.

"Even if Berserker, who has no anti-magic power, loses control, it will not pose any threat to Eliasfiel, who has hundreds of command spells, and Berserker's job is to sacrifice reason in exchange for strength. After the hero has been strengthened by attributes, even if he loses his mind, it is not an existence that other Servants can resist."

"But..."

"Hmm~!"

Sera wanted to say something more, but was frightened away by the old man's eyes.

"...make your eyes cloudy, your mind violent, prisoner bound by the threshold of madness, I am the master of this chain..."

The debate on the side didn't affect Ilya's behavior. As far as the young girl is concerned, as long as the measures are taken to achieve the 'Cup of Heaven', she will never have the slightest objection.

"...I am the one who accomplishes all good deeds in the world, and I am the one who eliminates all evil deeds in the world. The three spirits of words will wrap around you for seven days, and appear through the wheel of restraint..."

"——The guardian of the scales!!!"

A miracle happened at this moment.

The magic power diffused from the root vortex brought a strong wind, and the magic circle suddenly burst into dazzling brilliance.

The brilliance gradually faded, and a tall giant emerged in the center of the magic circle.

The giant is more than [-] meters tall, with long red hair messily scattered behind him, marble-like muscles protruding in lumps, and the blue veins protruding from the muscles are like angry snakes entrenched on the rocks, a pair of crimson And the eyes with a lot of divine light are silently watching the little girl in front of her...

The existence of the giant perfectly interprets the aesthetics of violence. Ordinary people will faint because they can't breathe just by standing in front of him.

"That's right! It's this kind of power. With such a Servant, I, Einzbern, will definitely be able to realize my thousand-year long-cherished wish."

Feeling the coercion coming towards his face, Ahadeon on the side could hardly restrain his inner excitement.Although he had already expected that the legendary hero possessed unimaginable power, the aura of the hero that made him tremble just by standing here still gave him a big surprise.

It took a long time for Ahadeon to calm down his emotions, and then turned his gaze to Illya who was panting heavily.

"Look at the attributes and treasures of this great hero."

Because it was a summoning with a specified spell, even though the great hero showed a quiet posture that did not fit his role, Ahadeon still thought that the Servant in front of him was a powerful 'familiar' who lost his mind and was at their disposal .

Hearing Ahadeon's order, Illya didn't execute it immediately. Although she summoned the powerful hero as expected, she couldn't feel the existence of any contract. The heroes don't have the slightest connection.

Illya closed her eyes in a panic, ignoring the recovery of the mana and physical strength spent in summoning the Servant.

Illya, who has made up her mind to complete her mission, cannot accept the situation of not being able to establish a contract with the Servant, because it means that she has lost all the value that has existed so far.

"Find it quickly, find it quickly, it is obviously summoned, but why can't I find the existence of the contract..."

Cold sweat broke out on Illya's forehead because she was too anxious, and Ahadeon, who hadn't received a response for a long time, noticed something strange about this gesture that shouldn't have appeared.

"Iliasviel, is there a problem with the contract?" The old man's face became gloomy.

"Master Ahadeon, the eldest lady lost a lot of physical strength during the summoning just now, and she probably hasn't recovered yet..." Sera took a step forward, trying to block the pressure that the old man put on Illya.

"Shut up! If you can't even bear this damage, it means that her endurance training is completely unqualified! It needs to be rescheduled."

The cold words spit out from the old man's mouth, and the threatening meaning revealed in them also made Sera, who understood what the so-called endurance training represented, return to her original position with a gloomy expression.

"Now! Eliasviel, tell me the Servant's attributes and Noble Phantasm, or explain whether there is a problem with the contract?"

Ahadeon slowly approached Illya, who was holding her head in her hands, and looked even more panicked. The surrounding maids also bowed their heads silently under the pressure of the patriarch.

At this moment, no one noticed at all. The berserker who had been silent since he was summoned and was considered irrational by everyone suddenly widened his crimson eyes, and stared fixedly at Ahha who was getting closer and closer to Illya. Deon.

But he didn't do anything in the end, just sighed silently.

"Huh?" Ilya, who was holding her head in her hands, suddenly opened her eyes. Although it was so blurry that she couldn't feel it, she still found the contract with the great hero in front of her.

"Career agent Berserker! The real name is Serius! It is indeed the flower of hope that blooms quietly!" Like a drowning person who fell into the sea and struggled desperately, Illya almost screamed and said what she saw Information.

The expected job title and real name did not ease Ahadeon's mood, but it still made him stop approaching Illya.

"Next, attributes, abilities, and treasures."

Ahadeon, who was no longer approaching, made Illya heave a long sigh of relief. The girl slowly put down her hands holding her little head, and then began to talk about the attributes that made Ahadeon unable to help but laugh out loud.
