Type-Moon, joins the Lion King at the beginning.

Chapter 16 Holy Grail
"Thank you very much!"

Li Ye was excited as he didn't expect Osmandis to be so straightforward. Does this mean that he can have the best of both worlds... No, he can have the best of all three!

The Lion King, the People of the Mountains, and even Osmanthus, the Sun King!

"Let's save the celebration for later. Li Ye, how much do you know about this singularity?"

Osmandis drummed his fingers on the throne, and the rhythmic tapping echoed in the temple.

'Are you testing me?'

'Ignorant people are not qualified to compare?'

Li Ye's expression remained unchanged: "King Osmandis, singularities are distortions created by the Magic King using the Holy Grail to place at several important nodes in human history in order to shake human nature."

"King Osmandis, please excuse me, but do you have the Holy Grail?"

The magical resources required for the giant summoning ceremony that almost covered Jerusalem were enormous, and the Lion King's attack was a completely sudden attack, and the conditions could not be met in a short period of time.

In addition, after the Lion King moved in, he failed to find the Holy Grail that was supposed to exist. Li Ye realized that it was likely that Osmandis appeared in the world and took the Holy Grail into his possession.

"Oh, I am the Sun King, the King of Kings. The Holy Grail is naturally in my hands. Since you have witnessed my appearance, you naturally know where the Holy Grail came from."

Osmandis on the throne raised his hand and clenched it, and ripples emerged from the void.

The golden miracle lamp fell into Osmandis's hands.

Just existing, the magic compressed to the extreme seems to distort the world.

'That is the Holy Grail!'

Li Ye was deeply attracted at the first sight of the Holy Grail.

Different from the Fuyuki Holy Grail that Li Ye had in mind.

The Holy Grail in Osmandis's hand is essentially a highly concentrated block of magic power, and the so-called wish-making function is far from being omnipotent. But as long as Li Ye obtains the Holy Grail and forms a supply of magic power, he himself will not be short of magic power.

At that time, he will also be able to squeeze into the first echelon of combat power in this land!

Suppressing his desire for the Holy Grail, Li Ye turned his eyes away from the Holy Grail and said, "Respected King Osmandis, is this the Holy Grail you confiscated from the Crusaders?"

"That's right. The magician who summoned me used the Holy Grail as a basis and used the object of cause and effect to make me appear in the world. So I naturally want to confiscate the Holy Grail that is worthy of my status."

"King Osmanthis, then the distortion of the singularity is caused by the Holy Grail?"

"Yes and no."

Osmandis played with the Holy Grail and said casually, "Just as you said, before your king arrived, the Holy Grail was indeed the source of the distortion of the singularity, but with the Tower of the End that the Lion King unfolded, human nature has collapsed."

"The Holy Grail is now nothing more than a useless toy."

"As expected, the Lion King has replaced the Holy Grail and is now in control of this singularity!"

After getting Osmandis's answer, Li Ye also confirmed his guess.

Maybe he witnessed the collapse of human nature with his own eyes.

"Why, you want the Holy Grail?"

Osmandis looked at Li Ye with interest.

The moment he took out the Holy Grail, Li Ye's eyes were fixed on the Holy Grail.

"I am the Sun King, the omnipotent I, how could I use such a poisonous cup! I am the master of the Holy Grail, the guardian of the Holy Grail, the Holy Grail is not enough for me to care about." Osmandis glanced at Li Ye with disdain.

As if blaming Li Ye for being so stupid.

'I want it!'

Li Ye cried out in his heart, but he dared not show any desire on his face. He was about to deny it, but suddenly he recalled Osmandis's wanton laughter. After a slight hesitation, he said firmly: "Yes, King Osmandis, I really want the Holy Grail."

"How dare you! The Holy Grail is not something you can possess!"

Osmandis hadn't responded yet, and Nitocris couldn't sit still any longer.

"Hahahaha, you have an honest desire, and you have the arrogance to ask the king for the Holy Grail. You are really interesting! Hahahaha..."

Osmandis was once again amused by Li Ye's shocking remarks: "Speak now! Since you know that the Holy Grail was once the source of the distortion of the singularity, and now it is in my hands, why do you still dare to ask for it?"

"King Osmanthus! I pursue the Holy Grail for power! To gain power that is not inferior to anyone else!"

"The end of the era is nigh, I must gain enough strength before my king completes his great cause!"

Li Ye, who had already awakened, spoke loudly.

“Take the Holy Grail from me and gain the power to compete with me? Hahahaha——”

"Even though I know that the Holy Grail came from the hands of the king who tried to destroy humanity and that I call it the Poisoned Grail, I still want to get it. Is it just to gain power?"

"Yes!"

"Hahahaha, I allow it!"

Osmanthus casually threw the Holy Grail off the throne.

"!"

Seeing this, Li Ye didn't dare to breathe and watched the Holy Grail fall towards him.

Snapped!
The cold touch was transmitted from the palm of his hand to his mind, and the obscure magical fluctuations deeply shocked Li Ye's soul like the corner of a glacier.

"H-Have you got the Holy Grail already?"

It was like pie in the sky, such overwhelming wealth, that Li Ye suddenly felt like he was in a dream.

It was as if I was in a dream without realizing it.

The Holy Grail that was once considered the source of the singularity's distortion, the Holy Grail known as the Wishing Machine, was now held in his hands.

How crazy is this?!
"Thank you, King Osmandis!"

Li Ye, who had just come to his senses, could not hide his excitement.
"Lee Ye, rebellious knight, how long do you think you can hold the Holy Grail?"

Osmandis asked suddenly, supporting his face with one hand.

As soon as these words came out, Li Ye, who was in high spirits, calmed down instantly. He slowly raised his head and looked directly into Osmandis' eyes: "In a year, half a year later, travelers from foreign lands will arrive at this singularity, and that will be the end of everything.

The stars point to the coming of the foreigners, the human survival guarantee agency Chaldea, and the last master of mankind——"

Fujimaru Ritsuka——

Li Ye did not say the name, but just recited it silently in his heart.

"You really do know a lot! Is this the source of your arrogance?"

Osmandis's expression remained unchanged and he didn't care about what Li Ye said about the future.

Li Ye shook his head, then looked at the Holy Grail in his hand and slowly said: "King Osmandis, I am not arrogant. This is just my wish, similar to the Lion King's but different, the wish to save mankind."

"Where does the reason for comparison come from? It's just a weak will to survive. I want to see which king can truly save humanity. Everything is just for survival."

Li Ye's sincere but not loud words echoed quietly in the temple, causing Osmandis to sneer: "Li Ye, this is your greatest arrogance, but I am very satisfied!
Go ahead, and let me see your arrogance when the one-year period you mentioned comes!"
