Rubbish protagonist, I can do it too!

The middle-aged man opened his mouth, heard the sound of boiling water, and spoke out loud: "Homunculus (artificial human) of the Einzbern family and the servant King of Knights."

Saber held the sword in both hands, her awe-inspiring voice revealed killing intent: "Who are you, and why do you know my true identity! Answer me!"

The servants are all well-known heroes in history, and revealing their real names is equivalent to telling others about their combat skills and weaknesses.

The man replied with a stiff face: "Saber, are you going to fight me here? Is this the airport or is it daytime? Killing this human puppet will only make you passive."

"Scumbag, it's your side who strikes first. If you still have a bit of shame as a hero, come out and fight me openly."

"Don't get me wrong, first of all, I am a magician and not a hero, and second, the purpose of my coming to you is not to fight. The artificial man of the Einzbern family, I am waiting for you at the Asakura Hotel next to the airport. My name is Mama. Kiri Shinji, please also contact the Magician Killer, we have a lot to talk about."

After finishing speaking, the middle-aged man fell down.

The cyborg maid of the Einzbern family went to check and calmly reported: "This person is only controlled by magic, and his body is fine."

Alice Viel sought Saber's opinion: "Saber, are we going?"

"Irisviel, you are the master, the decision is in your hands, this is very likely to be a trap of the other party, and the magician killer he said is also very interesting, Irisviel, yes Do you know anyone?"

"No, I've never heard of this name before. The man just now called himself Matou Shinji, and he should be the master of the Matou family. He knows us quite well. If he really wanted to sneak attack us, he probably wouldn't act rashly. "

Saber looked confident: "Please don't worry, Irisviel, I am your knight, and I will definitely protect your safety until the end of the Holy Grail War."

Irisviel smiled gently: "Saber, it's great to be able to summon a reliable servant like you."

Saber's face turned slightly red after being praised by Irisviel.

······

Shinji Matou thinks while eating at the hotel's independent restaurant.

The magician-killer Emiya Kiritsugu, a self-proclaimed partner of justice, is just such a boring man who seems to be a second-rate man in the eyes of others.

Matou Shinji only admires his ability to act, and what he does is indeed worthy of the title of a partner of justice.

Killing a few people and saving more people is Emiya Kiritsugu's means of maintaining justice, maintaining the balance between relief and sacrifice.

The more you want to save people, the more you need to kill.

Emiya Kiritsugu participated in the Holy Grail War in order to get rid of the balance that was close to the curse and seek a miracle that could truly save mankind.

No matter what kind of person he is, Shinji Matou is very clear that the polluted Holy Grail is by no means what he pursues, and it can even be said that the Holy Grail is the exact opposite of a partner of justice.

In this way, at least in terms of purpose, Matou Shinji and Emiya Kiritsugu are consistent.

So Matou Shinji approached the Einzbern family, and wanted to join forces with Emiya Kiritsugu to destroy the polluted Holy Grail.

"Well···"

After finishing a large piece of beef on the plate, Matou Shinji called the waiter to order some more food.

"I'd like a cream salad, seven-year-old Kobe beef fried, a large glass of frozen Coke, and an English dessert set, thank you."

The waiter wrote down the dishes Matou Shinji ordered, and looked at the large number of empty plates on the table with weird eyes. It was hard to imagine that so much food was eaten by a little boy.

"Yes, please wait a moment." The waiter bowed and left.

Matou Shinji is a pseudo-servant. One of his major disadvantages is that he cannot transform into a spirit like a servant. One of the advantages is that he can replenish his magic power through food.

After eating one after another for half an hour, the waiter came to tell Matou Shinji that there was a visitor.

Saber and Irisviel entered the private dining room one after another. Saber's eyes scanned every corner of the restaurant looking for traces of magic. After making sure that there was no trap such as a magic barrier, she focused on the only person in the restaurant, Shinji Matou. On the body.

"Children?" Alice Viel's eyes were both surprised and puzzled.

Saber reminded: "No, it's the servant, Irisviel, using the power of the master."

"I'm really a Servant...but I feel like something's wrong."

Saber took a step forward and said loudly to Matou Shinji: "Answer me, are you the servant who controls that human being? If you want to cooperate with us, why don't you let the Master come forward?"

Matou Shinji swallowed the food and said calmly: "I am the Master."

The silver pupils are flooded, and the magic eyes of the elements have insight into the body of the artificial human. I have to praise the artificial human technology of the Einzbern family. From the outside to the inside, there is no trace of flaws. The number and quality of magic circuits in the body are overwhelming compared to humans. The advantages.

In Irisviel's heart, Matou Shinji saw an unresolvable complex magic crystal, which should be the Lesser Holy Grail, a container used to store the souls of servants.

"Are you kidding? The breath on your body is undoubtedly a follower. Your master doesn't even have this level of sincerity?"

Matou Shinji put down his sleeves, smiled with Command Seals, "I am the Master."

Saber whispered in disbelief: "Command Seal!?"

Irisviel solemnly said: "Saber, that is the real Command Seal, the Master's proof."

"The master and the servant are the same person, how could something so ridiculous happen?"

Irisviel was not surprised, and explained: "If it is the Holy Grail War, it is not surprising. I am afraid that he used magic similar to spiritualism to tamper with the summoning ceremony, but this is not enough. The most important thing about summoning is the will of the summoned, which cannot be changed by Command Spells."

A command spell can control what a servant is forced to do, but it can never interfere with the servant's thinking.

Chapter 27 Oh, it's over

In the empty restaurant, Irisviel stared at Matou Shinji with her ruby ​​eyes, and asked in a soft and clear voice: "Excuse me, are you the master or a servant of the Matou family?"

She is asking whether the dominant consciousness is herself or a Servant, and the answer to the question is very important for this meeting.

"Master."

"Then, why did you call us here? Since you are the master of the Matou family, you should be clear about the relationship between the Matou family and the Einzbern family."

In the Holy Grail War, the Gosan family and the Tohsaka family are half outsiders, while the Einzbern family and the Matou family who are responsible for building the core of the Holy Grail system are old enemies.

Matou Shin said with deep meaning: "There are many things that can be discussed, such as other summoned servants, such as the truth of this Holy Grail War."

"The truth about the Holy Grail War?" Irisviel looked puzzled.

Matou Shinji nodded knowingly: "Yes, after knowing the truth about the Holy Grail War, the Magician Killer must be very happy to cooperate with me."

Irisviel hesitated to ask: "That..."

"Please say."

"I was very concerned when I was at the airport. Who is the magician killer you mentioned?"

Now that it’s all over, does the Einzbern family still want to hide the fact that they hired a magician killer?

Matou Shinji laughed: "I'm still asking who it is, the Master Emiya Kiritsugu employed by the Einzbern family. I know that he acts separately from you."

Irisviel tilted her head and thought for a while, then asked doubtfully, "The master hired by the Einzbern family? I'm sorry, I've never heard of this name, and the master of the Einzbern family is me. "

???

Matou Shinji's expression froze, and he saw Irisviel put down her sleeve to reveal her bright red Command Seal to prove her identity.

real or fake?

No, the magic power fluctuation of the command spell is real.

There are no partners of justice! ?

Oh, it's over!

"Snapped!"

Matou Shinji patted his forehead, unexpectedly, the situation was in order.

This is not "Fate/zero" but "Fate/Grand Order"! ?

As Shinji Nematou knows, there is indeed a world line in "Fater/Zero" in which Emiya Kiritsugu did not participate in the battle. If there is no Chaldea in that world line, the final winner will be Saber.

The sudden change threw Matou Shinji's thoughts into a mess, and all the plans he had made over the past year were completely overturned at this moment.

"How could such a thing happen? The Einzbern family actually completed the ultimate artificial human ten years in advance. No wonder the quantity and quality of the magic circuits are so abnormal." Shinji Matou said to himself depressedly. Tell Irisviel and the others.

The ultimate artificial human, this technology should have been completed at the Einzbern factory ten years later, and the artificial human produced by this technology is Illya.

If Illya does not win the Fifth Holy Grail War, the artificial human factory called the Einzbern family will be closed, because the technology of the Einzbern family cannot produce stronger artificial humans.

By completing this technology ten years in advance and creating the strongest artificial human master, the Einzbern family naturally does not need to hire an outsider to fulfill the Einzbern family's long-cherished wish.

In a world where Emiya Kiritsugu does not exist, it is necessary to take another action to reach a cooperation with Einzbern.

"What exactly do you want to say, Master of the Matou family?" Irisviel asked, clenching her hands.

Matou Shinji waved his hands and sighed: "Don't worry, I'm not your enemy. By the way, do you want to sit down and eat something? Let's talk while eating."

Irisviel and Saber looked at each other, Saber was able to guarantee that she would kill Shinji Matou the moment he cast his magic at such a close distance.

Irisviel nodded: "We're not welcome."

The two sat down, Matou Shinji was still sorting out his thoughts, Emiya Kiritsugu was not around, this invitation lost its original meaning.

Putting aside more complicated factors, what Shinji Matou wants to know the most at the moment is whether Chaldea, the human existence guarantee organization, will appear in this Holy Grail War.

The time should be tonight. Under normal circumstances, Saber and Lancer will clash tonight. Otherwise, it is 90.00% certain that Chaldea will participate in the Holy Grail War.

Until this is determined, it is not advisable to reveal too much.

It should be said that Irisviel got used to it quickly but was not wary, and soon after she was seated, she seemed to be enjoying the food, and she ate very happily.

Saber also couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, she emptied a large plate in the blink of an eye even though she didn't eat fast, she really deserves to be a fool.

Looking at Irisviel's charming and childish appearance, Matou Shinji couldn't help asking: "Excuse me for being rude, artificial human from Einzbern, how old are you this year?"

Irisviel was taken aback for a moment, and after serious consideration, she replied, "Age has no practical significance to us artificial humans."

Matou Shinji knew the answer. Irisviel was mentally mature and her actual age was estimated to be only nine years old, so she often showed childlike curiosity under this mature attitude.

"Forget it, let's talk about business."

Matou Shinji said frankly: "The situation is very different from what I expected. I'm sorry that I can't provide you with more information, but for the time being, this conversation has been facilitated, so let's give each other a reason to cooperate."

"The servant summoned by the Tohsaka family is Archer. His true identity is the protagonist in the oldest human epic "Gilgamesh", the strongest servant."

Irisviel whispered in surprise: "You mean that the master of the Tohsaka family summoned the King of Heroes..."

"It's more than that. Assassin's master Kotomine Kirei and Tosaka Tokire parted ways on the surface, but in fact they were secretly collecting information to help Tohsaka Toki win the Holy Grail War secretly. Kotomine Kirei's father Kotomine Ri is the supervisor of this Holy Grail War, and he has a close friendship with the Tosaka family, and he will continue to protect the Tosaka family in this Holy Grail War."

After a pause, Matou Shinji continued: "The only good thing is that the King of Heroes was summoned as an Archer with high-level solo action skills. Toki Tosaka cannot use this oldest and aloof king at will."

Irisviel crossed her hands and thought about it, and said softly: "The existence of the servant killer alone is enough reason for us to join forces, but why are you so clear about this Holy Grail War, and you also said some unclear words just now, as if Know the whole development of the matter from the beginning, it’s okay if you can’t tell the whole truth, at least give us a reason to believe you.”

The bright red pupils and serious expression revealed a determination not to give up until he got an answer.

Matou Shinji was having a headache, and said helplessly, "The only thing I can tell you now is that I witnessed the beginning to the end of the fourth Holy Grail War. As for the truth of the Holy Grail War, I will make a decision after tonight."

Chapter 28 The Ideal End

Leaving the hotel, Saber and Irisviel left in a black car.

In the car, Irisviel looked at the lively scene on the street and asked softly: "Saber, how credible do you think Caster's words are?"

"Credibility, about 5 points."

A look of surprise covered Irisviel's face: "Saber's answer is lower than I expected."

Saber smiled lightly: "I used to be the lord of a country. I have met many people like Caster. One thing is for sure. He is a smart person. What he thinks about, the benefits he wants to obtain, and the way he walks Maybe the path is the same as ours, but the final result must be his greatest benefit. Based on this result, the credibility of what he said has always been the same. It is not how much credibility he said, but we must maintain half of the credibility deal with such people.”

Irisviel praised with a smile: "As expected of the greatest king of Britain."

The atmosphere became heavy, Saber's blue eyes stared at the passers-by outside the window, and she shook her head in a complex tone: "Irisviel, this is not a compliment to me, I am a king who doesn't understand people's hearts, so I couldn't do it in the end." Save your country."

"Do you regret it?"

Saber smiled bitterly and said: "No, when I pulled out Caliburn (Sword of the Chosen King, Sword in the Stone), I had already seen my own ending. It was a very tragic end. Despite this, I have never regretted it for a moment. I cannot forgive it. It was the outcome that ultimately failed to save Britain."

"Well···"

Irisviel moved closer to Saber and quietly put her hand on Saber's shoulder: "It's too stiff."

"Irisviel?" Saber's pretty face was full of confusion.

Irisviel rubbed Saber's shoulders vigorously, her smile was always gentle and friendly: "As expected of an excellent knight, is it because you still have a body that your shoulders are very, very stiff."

"Eh?" Saber still didn't understand Irisviel's intentions, but she could feel concern for herself from her.

Irisviel leaned on Saber's shoulder, as if she wanted to hold her in her arms, and comforted her gently: "Saber, I can't imagine how heavy a responsibility and past you are carrying, that must be the reason for you to respond to the Holy Grail call, I am a puppet without wishes, if possible, from now on, please lend me your wishes, even a little bit of it, I want to share those sad pasts with you."

Saber closed her eyes, as if recalling a good memory, her smile became natural and mixed with a bit of bitterness: "A long time ago, someone said something similar to me. At that time, I didn't respond to her expectations. Thinking about it, I The end we are facing may be the punishment for me being a king who doesn't understand people's hearts."

Irisviel asked softly: "What would you choose now, Saber."

Saber shook her head: "I don't know, so what I want is to go back to the time when I drew Caliburn (Sword of the King, Sword in the Stone), recalling how I felt at that time, if I choose another ending, those who once loyal For my knights, will my country have a better ending? If it is doomed to perish, I hope to welcome it calmly."
