“Saber’s Master!” Matou Kariya stared at Toki with icy eyes, looking like he was about to devour someone.

"Why did you attack me?" Shi Chen asked expressionlessly.

"You... took Sakura away? Why did you take her away?"

"So you were looking for Sakura... It was indeed me who took her away." Shichen nodded in acknowledgment.

"Give me back Sakura!" Matou Kariya shouted, but unfortunately, he had little strength and it didn't sound scary at all.

“Sakura is mine, why should I give her back to you?” Shichen retorted.

"What are you going to do to Sakura?" Matou Kariya roared, trying to pounce on Tokiomi, but he could barely get up.

This guy is almost dead; he's covered in bugs.

Because his magic is obtained by sacrificing his own body and life, his magic circuits are formed by other creatures parasitizing his body.

This guy is destined not to live long in this Holy Grail War.

"Did Zouken Matou say something to you?" Toki suddenly asked.

"What do you mean?"

"You should have seen how happy Sakura was just now, right? What do you think I would do to her?"

"you......"

"I don't know what Zouken Matou said to you, nor do I know why you still want to participate in the normal Holy Grail War, but Sakura, you can rest assured that she will grow up happily by my side without suffering any grievances. You should know my strength."

"Is what you said... true?" Matou Kariya murmured.

"I don't need to lie to a dying man."

"Is that so? I understand." Matou Kariya's expression seemed one of relief.

"Then I'll leave it to you... to take good care of Sakura."

He slowly closed his eyes and died.

"You don't need to tell me, I will take good care of Sakura." Shichen shook his head, threw a fire, and turned to leave.

This guy is a pitiful person too.

“Brother,” Esther suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong, Esther?"

"Things don't seem good on my sister's side."

"Ok?"

As they walked out of the woods and looked towards the sea, they saw that Saber looked completely lost and dejected.

The reason is simple: the Berserker opposite her has revealed his true form, and she has recognized his identity.

However, Berserker was already dead; Saber's sword pierced through his chest and back.

Chapter 318 The Seventh Drop of Blood

“Saber.”

Shichen brought Esther to Saber's side and looked at her with pity.

“Shichen…” Saber looked at Shichen, and her expression made his heart ache.

Her once delicate face was now filled with pain; she wanted to cry but couldn't, her face brimming with sorrow.

Although Saber might be a bit too compassionate and not know how to blame Lancelot, the culprit, she wasn't really that wrong.

Ultimately, he couldn't bear to kill his own subordinates.

After all, her true identity was that of a woman, and from her perspective, she did indeed let down the princess, Guinevere.

You can't give your partner sexual happiness.

Platonic love is impossible to sustain, let alone for a princess with a normal sexual orientation.

But ultimately, from her perspective, from Shi Chen's own point of view, it was all someone else's fault. The Queen and Lancelot's adultery was a clear violation of the law, and how could it be forgiven?

If he were to do it himself, he would have beheaded Lancelot directly.

Lancelot had disappeared, but Saber remained motionless, still in the position of piercing him.

"Brother, why don't you comfort Sister Artoria?" Esther thoughtfully transformed into an imprint and entered the back of Time's hand.

Seeing Saber's dejected look, Shichen sighed, stepped forward, and hugged her tightly.

"If you want to cry, just cry it out. It will make you feel better."

"I can't cry..."

Saber shook her head in Shichen's arms, her tone resolute: "This is what I must do. I must achieve final victory, obtain the Holy Grail, and fulfill my wish."

"..." Shi Chen was starting to think about telling her that the Holy Grail had been corrupted.

However, given her current state, she definitely won't believe it. Rather than causing conflict, it's better to let her see it for herself in the end.

"it is good."

Shi Chen held her petite body tightly, rested his chin on the top of her head, and said softly, "I will help you achieve final victory."

"Um......"

The two stayed on the beach for a long time, and Saber did not make any move, letting Shichen hold her like that.

Shichen was worried that Irisviel and the others would worry, so he took Saber back early.

"Shichen, you're back!"

Irisviel and the others were all in the living room, and as soon as they saw Shichen and Saber return, they couldn't help but get up to greet them.

Seeing that the two were unharmed, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Dad! Are you alright?" Ilya ran and jumped into Shichen's arms.

Shi Ying followed closely behind: "Brother."

Shi Chen smiled and picked them both up, saying, "How could anything happen to me?"

"Yes, Daddy is the best!"

"I believe in my brother."

"The way you're acting doesn't seem like you believe me."

"Hehe~"

"Since everything's alright, I'll go back to my room." Frillie walked towards her room without hesitation.

"..."

As Shi Chen watched her walk into the room and close the door, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He decided he would teach her a lesson later.

"Time, Saber?" Irisviel noticed that something was wrong with Saber.

"It's nothing, I just sparred with an old friend."

"An old friend? Could it be that Berserker?"

"Yes, it's Lancelot."

"It's Lancelot!" Irisviel exclaimed in surprise.

After all, given Lancelot's fame, very few people are unaware of him.

"That......"

"Yes, Saber took care of it herself."

"...I'm going back to my room to rest." Saber, unable to bear it any longer, went back to her room.

After Saber closed the door, Irisviel slapped Shichen in annoyance: "Why are you so direct?"

"What else can we do? Just keep quiet about it? Saber isn't that weak, and she has to face this fact."

"You can't be so direct."

"That's Lancelot's fault."

"Eh? Why?"

“Perfect timing, let me tell you about Saber’s real experiences.”

Saber's experiences are naturally different from the orthodox legends, but apart from the special ones, they are not much different.

Before long, he finished telling Irisviel and the others the story of Saber.

"I never imagined... Saber had such an experience." After listening, Irisviel leaned against Shichen's chest and sighed.

Ilya and Shi Ying had already gone back to their bedroom to play games. Shi Chen didn't let them listen, since some of the content wasn't suitable for children.

The two of them had already gone astray, and they kept saying they'd let him touch them when they grew up. What if they went even further?

"Being a king isn't so easy," Shi Chen said, putting his arm around Irisviel.

“Yes, but I think Saber is very qualified to be a queen.” Irisviel spoke up for Saber.

"Is that so? I think Saber is more like a general than a queen."

"A general? What you're saying makes sense."

"Your change of heart is too fast!"

"Um... I just agree with you." Irisviel was a little embarrassed and buried her head in Shichen's arms.

Shi Chen, inhaling her delicate fragrance, held her tightly: "Saber doesn't need us to worry about her, and that's all in the past."

"So what do you plan to do with her?" Irisviel asked, looking up.

She knew that the Holy Grail had been corrupted.

"I plan to keep her here and tell her the truth later."

“I knew it…” Irisviel pursed her lips.

"What? Are you jealous?"
