Chapter 16: The Unofficial History of the Third Holy Grail War (Newbies please read it!!!)

16. The Unofficial History of the Third Holy Grail War
So to say.

In the incredible battle before, besides Emiya Kiritsugu, Kotomine Kirei should have also been watching nearby, right?
It seems that Gilgamesh is not the only one who has developed unnecessary feelings because of this.

--but

As far as Jill knows, the Dragon Demon Azdahaka's favorite way to express his "interest" is to give a "trial".

If there are no trials, he will create his own.

As for Gilgamesh Gil, he likes to play together.

Well, it means literally, there is no messy or dark meaning, it is that simple.

Jill rarely takes the initiative to cause trouble.

But he also has a problem, that is, his definition of "play" is wrong - for example, various destructive disasters, because they pose no threat to Jill, so he will also regard them as part of "playing".

Such as now.

Gil knew that the Dragon Demon was secretly doing something, and wanted to provide Shirou with a 'trial', so that he could gain 'pleasure' by watching them struggle and grow in the trial.

Jill can obviously stop it and has the ability to stop it, but he won't do it. Instead, he will look forward to it - look forward to what kind of performance Shirou can put forward.

“Let me look forward to it.”

"Open the road of life and death!"

"How much do you resemble 'him' now?"

Although Zouken Matou, who was hiding in the dark, was unable to know about Jill and the Dragon Demon, he also confirmed the end of the Fourth Holy Grail War.

Although the Matou family is one of the three great families responsible for hosting the Holy Grail War, they have long been in decline since the generation of Matou Zouken.

In reality, both the Einzbern family and the Tohsaka family have fallen into decline.

The root cause is that the last Holy Grail War - the Third Holy Grail War, became a farce.

Matou Zouken witnessed everything.

Witnessed the 'farce of saving the world'.

The Einzberns came up and then left at the speed of light. The famous Finnish magician family 'Edelfeldt family' participated in the competition and turned against Tiangang, becoming the real protagonists of the Third Holy Grail War.

However, the Edelfeldt family was notorious in the world of magicians. Even though all the family heads were famous beauties, they were all sarcastically 'praised' as 'the most beautiful hyenas in the world' by the Magicians' Association.

The reason for this is that the Edelfeldt family, a famous Finnish magic family, likes to do what is regarded as the most despicable method in the world of magic - plundering the mysteries.

Plunder the magic research kept by other families.

If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't win, the Edelfeldt family would have been wiped out by the Magician's Association long ago, right?

In other words, the very fact that the Edelfeldt family participated in the war meant that they had already failed before the Third Holy Grail War even began.

Because their purpose in participating in the Holy Grail War was not to compete for the prize of the Wishing Machine, but to pack up the entire ritual system of the Holy Grail War and take it away - to physically dig up the entire ritual site.

The Third Holy Grail War has actually turned into a battle for the Three Great Families to defend the Holy Grail system.

Matou Zouken thought it was a grand circus farce.

However, the head of the Tousaka family at that time (Tousaka Rin's grandfather) was not only a young man of high school age, but his magic skills had also declined to the level of an ordinary person. He participated in the Holy Grail War relying on his bravery, excellent martial arts and mediocre magic, but unexpectedly became the biggest variable.

The Edelfeldt family is very strong.

Although they were playing away from home, they took it for granted that they found loopholes in the Holy Grail rules and started cheating.

The Edelfeldt family's bloodline has a special 'twin sisters' attribute. All the family heads in the past generations are twin sisters. They are good at obtaining enormous power through this identity, and then obtain the quality of a Master that is close to or even surpasses the androids of Einzbern.

During the Third Holy Grail War, the Edelfeldt sisters took advantage of this characteristic of theirs and combined it with the rules of the Holy Grail War to achieve the result of being able to summon one more Servant.

In the Holy Grail War, which theoretically only has seven Servants, they summoned the "eighth Servant" who obeyed them. Both sisters are top-level Einzbern homunculus-level Masters, and the servants they summoned also have the characteristics of "twins". Not only are the twin servants each of them mythical-level top servants, but they also have a synergistic treasure that can further enhance their strength by 1+1>2.

Faced with such a powerful invader, according to the ancient covenant, Matou, Tōsaka, and Einzbern should naturally join forces to resist the enemy.

But what happened at the very beginning made Matou Zouken's eyes go dark.

The representative of the Einzbern family actually wanted to cheat. She violated the rules and summoned a Servant with a special job "Avenger". However, she made a mistake in operation and the Avenger she summoned was too weak. He was killed instantly by the Edelfeldt sisters' servants with the power of starlight.

The strongest trump card of the three families, Einzbern, was eliminated at the speed of light, and the only one left by Zouken Matou was
The head of the Tohsaka family at that time, Tohsaka Rin's grandfather was just a teenager. Apart from the management rights of the land, his magic skills had declined to the level of an ordinary person. At most, he was a sports student with decent hand and foot skills. But this is the Holy Grail War. How can a mortal like you cast strengthening magic on yourself and then fight with the servants?
For Matou Zouken - for his ambition, the Third Holy Grail War was the real biggest crisis.

In order to preserve the Holy Grail system, Zouken Matou naturally cannot rely on the good-for-nothing Toosaka. He decides to go all out and bring greater variables to the Third Holy Grail War, completely muddying the situation so as to preserve the Holy Grail system!
Matou Zouken secretly contacted two forces of the Axis powers.

Zouken Matou secretly controlled the Japanese army and turned them into his own puppets, but he did not expect that the German army he attracted actually had incredible mysterious black technology.

The German army intends to seize the Holy Grail, use the power of the Holy Grail to build spacecraft, and deploy a military base on the moon!
Then, based on the moon base, conquer the earth and destroy the Allies!
Matou Zouken could never have imagined that the German army actually brought with them the legendary holy spear, the Spear of Longinus - this thing, let alone being a holy relic, can be used directly as a treasure in itself!
The small city of Fuyuki was in chaos
The final result is that the burdensome boy Tousaka (Tousaka Rin's grandfather) abandoned by Matou Zouken, with his equally weak servants, decided to "defeat the evil Axis Powers, prevent them from getting the Holy Grail, and save the world myself!".

At that time, Matou Zouken just thought that this kid was mentally ill and the people of the Tohsaka family were as stupid as ever.

If you think about it carefully, among the three great families, only the Tōsaka family is here to make up the numbers and be funny. The Tōsaka family is the only one of the three great families that has no demand for the Holy Grail. To the Tōsaka, the outcome of the Holy Grail War does not matter. They do not really participate in the Holy Grail system, they simply provide the land for holding the Holy Grail War - even the provision of the land is due to the contract signed by the founder of the Tōsaka family hundreds of years ago.

After the decline of the Tousaka family, the Tousaka boy's purpose in participating in the Holy Grail War was more to think that "winning the Holy Grail War would revitalize the Tousaka family."

But there is a serious problem with the Third Holy Grail War.

The German army came with the Spear of Destiny (Lance of Longinus), which was stained with the blood of the Son of God Jesus. Anyone holding it would be blessed with the destiny of "certain victory".

This thing was useless when fighting the Russians at that time. After all, the Russian God must be the people's God, and the theories of traditional religions were useless to them.

But the Holy Grail system of Fuyuki City is based on Christian mythology.

In other words, when the German army participated in the Third Holy Grail War with the Spear of Destiny, it had already won according to the rules.

The Edelfeldt twin sisters, who were already powerful enough to cheat, were also defeated. They were once so invincible that they were seriously injured and captured.

How to beat this? You can't beat it. It's impossible to play it. It's like playing cards and the opponent has all five pieces of Exodia in his hand. The Dark Mage wins directly.

At that time, Matou Zouken was actually already thinking about the future. The Holy Grail has a small Holy Grail that can make wishes, so let the little mustache take it if he wants it. So what if this world line becomes the world line where the Axis powers win the Second World War?

As long as the Holy Grail System is not taken away, Zouken Matou and the Einzbern family, who were also born in Germany, can still continue to hold the next Holy Grail War.

The Holy Grail War should have ended here.
But unexpectedly, the Toosaka boy had a brain problem.

The Tohsaka family could have inherited anything else, but they had to inherit something called 'self-righteous aristocratic thinking'.

Because of this aristocratic mentality, even if the people of the Tohsaka family are in decline, they will always feel that they have a "high position and heavy responsibilities."

Since they are in a high position of power, the idiots of the Tōsaka family would naturally think that the greater their ability, the greater their responsibility.

Zouken Matou never expected that this kid actually thought that he was the lord of Fuyuki and that it was his responsibility to protect the people of Fuyuki. He attributed the suffering of the Japanese poor, epitomized by Fuyuki City at the time, to the evil madness of the militarist government.

He was considered one of their own by both the German and Japanese armies, but he turned out to be an anti-fascist "aristocrat".

In a dead end situation, the young Toosaka insisted on going his own way and went deep into the enemy's territory alone. He caused a commotion at the Axis base which had already begun researching how to use the Lesser Holy Grail and was conducting human experiments on the captured Edelfeldt sisters, and rescued the Edelfeldt sisters.

I won't go into the specific story here, as it would be endless if I went into detail.

all in all.

In the Third Holy Grail War, the Holy Grail is no longer the focus.

The end result was that the Tosaka boy and the Edelfeldt sisters, together with their servants - Jason, Pollux, and Castor, thwarted the Axis coalition's conspiracy.

Saved the world.

The Toosaka boy also shared life and death together and won the favor of the Edelfeldt sisters. After the two sisters tied the Toosaka boy to the trophy table, they decided to have a duel to decide the winner. The winner would marry the Toosaka boy, I mean, they would get married, and the loser could only go back and inherit billions of assets - this is how Toosaka Tokiomi came into being.

Please do not take it as popular science about the original settings. Although there is information that the Edelfeldt sisters summoned twin servants in the Third Holy Grail War, it does not say that they were the Dioscuri brothers and sisters. The fact that Grandpa Toosaka's servant is Jason is also my fabrication. It is not the original content. Do not take it as popular science. It is purely wild history!
