Chapter 38: Partners of Justice (Seeking Flowers)

"Kiritsugu..."

Because of the return of the three Sevent riders to her body (including Gilles de Rais), Irisviel was now clearly feeling uncomfortable, as if something was gradually being lost.

At this moment, she is gradually becoming the "Little Holy Grail".

There are four suitable places for the Holy Grail to descend in Fuyuki City: Ryudouji Temple on Mount Enzo, the Tohsaka family mansion, the Church of the Holy Church, and finally, the Civic Hall in the center of the new city.

Looking at Irisviel beside him, Kiritsugu Emiya smiled, a rare occurrence for him, and gently hugged the beautiful woman in front of him.

"Irisviel, do you think I can succeed?"

Upon hearing Kiritsugu Emiya's words, even Saber, who had been silent all along, couldn't help but turn her head.

Kiritsugu Emiya is an extremely complex man.

In his youth, he aspired to become a "partner of justice," but after experiencing a series of events, including countless battlefields, his ideals began to gradually become distorted.

If you haven't seen hell, go to the battlefield; that itself is hell.

During the long battle, Kiritsugu Emiya finally realized one thing: what he had done was actually insignificant, not even enough to make a ripple in the long river of humanity.

So what is the point of what I'm doing?

He paid such a high price, killed so many people, and sacrificed his first love, his father, his master, and all those who hindered world peace. In the end, was it all for nothing?

Unwilling to accept this situation, he gradually became paranoid. In the end, his actions seemed to be a curse on justice, as he was bound by the thought that "the sacrifices made to achieve justice should not be in vain."

So he turned his attention to the Holy Grail, the "omnipotent wish-granting machine" that could grant any wish.

To achieve his goals, he can abandon all morality and emotions, striving only to be the most precise balance, and will stop at nothing to achieve his objectives.

"But he overlooked one thing from beginning to end: his master."

With a mouthful of grapes peeled by Xiaoying, Shen Qiu mumbled something indistinctly.

"That is, the scales used to measure life are never based on quantity. If the value of life could be measured simply by quantity, then life itself would be worthless."

Speaking of this, Shen Qiu, who had just finished eating grapes, picked up a freshly cut watermelon from the table. You know, watermelons in Japan are already very expensive, and watermelons in the early winter season are even more expensive, but compared to the Matou family's business, it's nothing.

Thinking of this, Shen Qiu couldn't help but sigh and say, "What a terrible thing capitalism is!"

"For example, if Newton, the father of physics, had contracted an acute infectious disease, and if he hadn't been killed, it could have infected thousands or tens of thousands of people, then if it were Kiritsugu Emiya, he would definitely have shot him without hesitation."

"But if we kill him, humanity's technological level may stagnate for decades or even centuries. But for Kiritsugu Emiya, he doesn't care. All he cares about is how many people can be saved by killing him."

At this point, Shen Qiu sighed.

From the very beginning, Kiritsugu Emiya had reached a dead end, and his extreme obsession had made his heart extremely agitated.

He naturally assumed that "the blood shed in Fuyuki City will be the last bloodshed in human history." To be honest, even Shen Qiu couldn't help but chuckle at such a naive idea.

In other words, even if the Holy Grail is untainted and can truly grant wishes, such a large-scale alteration of cause and effect would be unacceptable not only to Gaia and Alaya, but also to the Magicians' Association and the Holy Church.

It's like a dream.

"The meaning of life is never about quantity, but about the value created."

Shen Qiu, having devoured the watermelon completely, turned his face toward Xiao Ying with satisfaction, while Xiao Ying obediently picked up a tissue and wiped Shen Qiu's mouth clean.

It's like living the life of a god.

"Not to mention that the Holy Grail has long been corrupted, and its so-called wish-granting function has long been reduced to Angolan Mainyu's desperate attempt to bring himself into existence."

"Even so, you don't intend to tell Kiritsugu Emiya the truth?" the master asked with interest.

“Tell him what to do. That guy will only give up on that cup after he has witnessed all the evil in the world. Until then, nothing we say will make a difference.”

At this point, Shen Qiu smiled. It was precisely because he had no obvious conflict of interest with Kiritsugu Emiya that he was able to form an alliance with him with peace of mind.

"Anyway, hopefully that guy can prepare everything according to plan."

Chapter Thirty-Nine: Weber's Resolve

dusk.

Artoria straightened her black suit, looking dashing and confident. The men's suit didn't look out of place on her; instead, it created a unique androgynous beauty.

"I'm sorry, Saber, my body no longer allows me to participate in battle. You must be careful this time if you go alone. If you get injured, I will no longer be able to use healing magic to heal you."

"Irisviel!"

At this point, Irisviel was extremely weak, and she was even having trouble breathing when she spoke a single sentence. The Holy Grail War had already entered its fourth day, which was naturally the second half.

And her life was about to come to an end.

Seeing Irisviel struggling to sit up in bed with all her might, Saber felt heartbroken. At her insistence, Kiritsugu Emiya finally revealed the truth about Irisviel.

This time, Kiritsugu Emiya was unusually not stubborn, because he needed Artoria to participate in tonight's battle. He had already used up one Command Seal, and with Artoria's A-rank Magic Resistance, offsetting one Command Seal was no problem at all.

He doesn't want to completely fall out with Artoria yet.

Upon learning that Irisviel was actually the Lesser Grail that brought the Greater Grail's magic to life, Saber was shocked and deeply saddened.

During the limited time they spent together, she came to regard Irisviel far more highly than Kiritsugu Emiya. In her eyes, Irisviel was the true Master, compared to Kiritsugu Emiya.

Irisviel would fight alongside her on the battlefield, even though it was a very dangerous place for humans. She was never afraid, her eyes were always unwavering, and she would always pay close attention to the battlefield.

At the same time, they will also use healing magic to heal themselves after they are injured.

"Irisviel, you rest first and wait for my good news."

Saber gently laid Irisviel flat on the bed. Just today, during the day, Kiritsugu Emiya, as Saber's Master, officially issued a declaration of war to Waver Velvet.

Kiritsugu Emiya knew that the King of Conquerors would never ignore such a blatant declaration of war. At the banquet of the Four Kings, he studied the personality of each Heroic Spirit.

Given Iskandar's personality, he must be feeling incredibly excited right now!

An ordinary house on the outskirts of Fuyuki City.

"Rider! Please don't go! You have no idea how terrifying that man named Emiya Kiritsugu is!"

Waver looked at the Servants in front of him who seemed to have made up their minds to go to war and wailed, "Why can't they just wait for the other Servants to kill each other?"

"That man is cunning and treacherous. Hundreds, even thousands, of magicians have died at his hands. You saw how gruesome my teacher Kenneth's death was. Believe me, his open invitation for you to join the battle must have some ulterior motive!"

Waver tossed his head, seemingly convinced that Kiritsugu Emiya was definitely up to no good.

Who knows what he might do? You have to understand that he's just a lowly magician, practically an outsider in the Magicians' Guild—and he's already nineteen.

It's no wonder Kenneth looked down on the nineteen-year-old junior magician. Kenneth had already reached the rank of priest when he was fifteen.

Whether you want to admit it or not, it's undeniable that lineage is extremely important in the magician profession. Webber's magic circuit is only E, which is the level of magic circuits that are just beginning to learn magic, and he's only one step away from being an ordinary person.

His family's magic imprint was mentioned in the later work "Lord El-Melloi II Case Files," but it was just a pitiful magic circuit.

In a sense, Webber was actually the first magician in his family. Because his father, the previous generation, had only secretly learned some basic magic tricks, such as opening spells and a few others, from a magician.

In other words, he was a wandering magician who had never received a formal education. Even though he had a strong understanding and learning ability, he could never compare to his classmates who just casually learned magic when it came to Webber.

This is the difference in family background.

To be honest, if Kiritsugu Emiya had declared war so openly before, even Shen Qiu would have thought something was amiss. But this time, he really misunderstood Kiritsugu Emiya—he really didn't intend to set any traps!

Although he didn't particularly like Sevent, Kiritsugu Emiya acknowledged her strength. Furthermore, in order to ease tensions with Saber, he decided to reluctantly entrust the entire battle to her.

On the other hand, this was also Shen Qiu's intention.

"Hey, Master, the enemy has already come knocking on our door. It's not my style to be a coward.

Iskandar sighed as he watched Weber throwing a tantrum.

Chapter 40: On the Eve of the Great Battle of Weiyuanchuan

Looking at Weber, who was almost half a head shorter than him, Iskandar wasn't actually angry. During their time together, he had clearly understood what kind of person his Masater was.

He firmly believed he was a genius, though harsh reality always proved him wrong. He had an extremely strong sense of self-respect, yet was also very weak; on the other hand, he was gentle and kind.

This is a boy who doesn't harbor much malice towards the world.

Therefore, although Waver's magic skills were poor, even dragging Iskandar down, he never complained. Waver would also carefully analyze the situation on the battlefield and listen to his own opinions. If this were in ancient times, he would be perfectly capable of being a strategist.

"Hey, Weber."

Iskandar picked up Weber, who was still crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide.

"Isn't your purpose in participating in this Holy Grail War to demonstrate your strength to the world and gain everyone's recognition?"

Weber wiped his tears and snot with his sleeve and nodded; this was precisely his purpose in participating in this Holy Grail War.

"So, is proving that your Servant is stronger than others also part of the goal? If I, as a Rider, defeat Saber, who is known as the strongest class, then will you also gain everyone's recognition?"

Iskandar looked at Waver and smiled, at which point Waver finally stopped crying and listened attentively to Iskandar's story.

"Weber, before you prove yourself to be a powerful magician, you must first prove yourself to be a man, a real man. And the first thing a real man does is to knock down anyone who challenges him with his fists!"

Iskandar's words seemed to possess a magical power; Weber gradually felt less afraid, wiped his clothes clean, and bravely stood up.
