The Holy Grail War Blessed by the Gods

"Archer has been destroyed?"

Standing behind Saber, Alice covered her mouth and said...

This scene seems to illustrate only this point, but can the King of Heroes really be defeated so easily?

Logically, it should be possible, but today was indeed not so easy.

"He actually escaped at the last minute? How boring, Archer."

Manju stood on the solar boat and laughed mockingly.

He clearly saw that the power of the Command Seals had taken the king away.

This was certainly not Gilgamesh's intention, but that didn't stop Manju from making a few sarcastic remarks first.

What a foolish Master! Victory would have been much easier to achieve if he hadn't done all that unnecessary work.

Tokiomi Tohsaka always makes self-defeating moves. Even if he just left it alone, the odds of winning would be much higher than if he had taken those actions.

"It's really disappointing. The guy who made such a boastful promise could only run away like a stray dog ​​in the end. He doesn't seem to have any qualifications to be a king or a hero."

"You have all witnessed my glory today. Worship me as you please before the God-King. This game will not end until I lose interest. Perhaps the chosen hero can challenge the King with his sword and find it enjoyable."

Manju feigned a loss of interest, put away the sun boat's light, and turned to walk off the bow.

When Manju reached a point where no one else could see him, he lay down on the deck and used his last bit of strength to maneuver the sun boat away.

The skill of Camping at Midnight only postpones the consumption of fatigue and magic power; it is not as if it does not exist.

Being able to say those words and continue pretending to leave already shows that Manshu has quite a bit of willpower.

Perhaps it was the influence of Berserk on her rationality that enhanced Manshu's mental endurance, and her chuunibyou (delusional) behavior was likely also influenced by Berserk.

After the solar boat had traveled some distance, Manju finally managed to stop it, mustered his strength, and returned to the Matou family in his spirit form.

Matou Kariya returned some time later, and since he didn't have a solar boat to travel on, he naturally had to walk back.

Moreover, the large amount of magic power extracted earlier had also put a considerable strain on his body, and he was so weak that he had to rest for a while before returning.

"My king, I have been a burden to you tonight. Please forget my foolish ramblings and allow you to continue to demonstrate the wisdom of God Thoth."

Ignoring her own exhaustion and pain, Matou Kariya knelt before Manju and said as if in repentance.

"Ok?"

Faced with this sudden turn of events, Manju could only look puzzled, but he couldn't show it. He could only calmly tell Matou Kariya to get up.

“You weren’t a burden to me before you knelt down and said these words, but now you are.”

"Do you think that the wisdom of God Thoth is insufficient to discern the truth? That the eyes of the King of Gods cannot see the way?"

As Manshu spoke, he deliberately raised his eyebrows, making a gesture of fury.

“I have no such thoughts,” Matou Kariya said in a panic.

While Matou Kariya was out of it, Manju took the opportunity to talk to him for a few minutes and learn about his thoughts.

It turns out that Kariya Matou felt that Manju's battle with Gilgamesh tonight was due to his words yesterday, and that he couldn't offer much help.

"Go and get some rest, the night isn't over yet." Manshu patted Matou Kariya helplessly.

Chapter Eleven Collapse

Inside the magic workshop beneath the Tohsaka family's residence, the crimson flames burning in the eyes of the King of Heroes nearly turned the place into a scene of hell.

The anger that was aborted this time is far greater than the anger in the original storyline.

However, this anger was eventually quelled. The furious king left the place and merged into the city to vent the flames in his heart.

Before he left, he also left a ditch several tens of meters long next to the Tohsaka family's house.

He's not the kind of guy who absolutely needs a Master; if his anger really reaches its peak, he could just kill his Master without hesitation.

The King of Heroes, who possesses an A-rank ability to act independently, can survive alone for several days even without his Master.

"Qili, go and help your father cover up the commotion tonight. It will probably take some effort to cover up such a big commotion."

With a headache, Tokiomi Tohsaka rubbed his temples, eventually managing to distract himself.

Although a powerful Servant capable of securing victory was summoned as expected, he turned out to be an uncontrollable individual, making it difficult to truly carry out all the planned schemes.

Tokiomi Tohsaka felt a pang of distress, especially considering that the Servant piloting the Sun Ship was probably no less powerful than Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

Gilgamesh's abilities were fully exposed, and even the divine sword hidden deep within the treasure vault was somehow revealed.

This significantly reduced the chances of winning the Holy Grail War, and many plans needed to be revised.

Tokiomi Tohsaka sighed silently, and finally wrote down another name: Ramses II.

If nothing unexpected happens, the follower riding the solar boat should be this great Pharaoh.

This will definitely be the most powerful and difficult enemy to deal with in this Holy Grail War. Next, we need to formulate a plan around this Servant.

……

"There's really no other way."

Rider Iskandar the Conqueror was somewhat annoyed, as his carefully prepared entrance had been ruined.

In this way, his wish to announce it to everyone was completely thwarted.

However, we still have two Servants available, so we should give it a try.

But to be honest, it's truly the Holy Grail War. Several incredibly powerful heroes have suddenly appeared. If they could join my legion, this expedition might just reach its end.

Rider, thinking to herself, turned her head and shouted loudly at Lancer and Saber in front of her.

"My name is Iskandar, the Conqueror, and I have attained the Rider class in this Holy Grail War."

"Would you like to submit to me and hand over the Holy Grail? If so, I will treat you as my dearest friends and share with you the joy of conquering the world."

Rider began to recruit Saber and Lancer, but unsurprisingly, he was rejected by both. The confrontation in Warehouse Street ended there.

After the clash between Manjushri and Gilgamesh, the group lost interest and temporarily called it a day, then left.

Before leaving, Lancer and Saber made a promise to come back and have a proper fight next time.

After the followers left, the local church's cleansing staff arrived to deal with the traces left behind.

Their actions were swift; they were already on standby according to instructions, ready to deal with any situation arising from the war.

Tomorrow, the situation at this seaside warehouse street will probably be dismissed as a gas explosion or something similar.

Although it's unknown which gas explosion occurred, it's possible that it leveled the entire street and even created such a massive crater.

But here, these kinds of reasons seem surprisingly effective, so effective that one might suspect some kind of suggestive magic.

"Never before has a Holy Grail War been fought so fiercely right from the start..."

Irisviel was somewhat worried about how things would unfold tonight, especially Saber's situation.

At this moment, Saber was truly gazing silently into the distance where Rider had flown away. Her intelligent profile showed neither the excitement nor the exhaustion of surviving a deadly battle.

But Irisviel knew how deep Saber's wounds were beneath that dignified facade.

(iv) "It's alright, Irisviel. The battle is only just beginning. Tonight's situation is merely the first night after a series of battles to come."

The three Sabers noticed Irisviel's unease and spoke calmly.

"Hmm, yeah..."

six……

(4) "Have all the patterns on that solar boat been recorded?"

Compared to Irisviel, Kiritsugu Emiya was in a much worse state, inevitably getting covered in dust from the collapsed building after jumping off the roof.

However, he didn't care about this at all. While communicating with Wu Mi through the communicator, he sorted out everything that had happened that night in his mind.

"The photos are being uploaded, and we should be able to analyze some things, but the information about Archer is not very clear."

U-Mai responded while operating the electronic device.

“I understand. There’s still time to gather intelligence, so there’s no need to rush. I’ll track Lancer and his Master first. Saber’s hand injury can’t be left untreated, otherwise she might not be able to defeat Archer and Berserker if they encounter them.”

"Kiritsugu Emiya said quickly, his thermal imaging camera had already spotted Lancer's Master hiding on the other side. As soon as Lancer's Master started to leave, Kiritsugu Emiya immediately followed.

……

"How is the recovery going? Report the truth. I don't need you to exaggerate or show off. Only accurate information can allow the light of God Thoth to function properly."

Manju asked Matou Kariya, giving him a special warning to prevent him from exaggerating his condition.

Two hours had passed, and two-thirds of the night had gone by.

But only two-thirds of the night has passed, which means the night is not over yet.

"Normal operations are fine, but in the event of a battle, my condition can only support half an hour of regular combat."

"I can't believe it," Matou Kariya said honestly.

It's not a lie. Manjushri secretly concocted a lie detector blessing and sought the wisdom of Thoth to judge truth from falsehood.

"That's enough. Tonight, we'll end with the collapse of the towering skyscraper. We're just here to watch; we don't need to exert ourselves too much."

This is of course a lie; it's just to ensure that Kenneth doesn't die due to unforeseen circumstances. Lancer can't die before Saber is defeated.

Chapter Twelve Starlight

Kiritsugu Emiya followed Lancer's Master all the way to the Hyatt Regency Fuyuki.

Upon arriving here, Kiritsugu Emiya learned of Lancer's identity as his fourth Master.

After all, this intelligence had been on his desk for a long time and he had reviewed it repeatedly.

The monarch of the Clock Tower, Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald.

That's incredibly stupid of them to set up their base on the 32nd floor of a high-rise building. It's just too naive.
