An imaginary shadow, an existence whose true identity is unknown, it is like a mirage rising to the land. Normal attacks are useless and all you can do is wait until the shadow disappears - Gilgamesh in the HF line was devoured by this little trick.
Even though New Moon's Imaginary Shadow does not have the dimensionality reduction attack of the Black Holy Grail, it is enough to deal with the attack of the King's Treasure.
"What...!" The sound of astonishment dissipated the moment it was uttered. Gilgamesh pulled back quickly, looking at the steel frame that was swallowed up in an instant. He turned his head suddenly, and his ferocious eyes pierced at the new moon like a sharp sword. His handsome appearance was frozen by the cold murderous intent.
For this king, losing his composure because of a petty trick or being forced to retreat before a clown's tricks are both unforgivable things.
"You really want to die so badly, you idiot!"
Facing the bone-chilling cold that would have crushed an ordinary person, Shuoyue responded with a smile that was as gentle as the breeze. She placed her left hand on her chest, raised her toes, and exaggeratedly stretched her right hand toward the sky, gracefully and playfully performing a farewell ceremony:
"Well, my performance tonight ends here. Please enjoy a magician's 'little trick'."
The space was replaced, and the diamond-shaped door passed through the young man's figure and disappeared together.
The flames shot up into the sky for a moment, then dissipated on the Fuyuki Bridge. The roar of the King of Heroes echoed for a long time:
"Don't let me find you, magician!"
Confirm the anchor point.
Replacement successful.
The diamond-shaped door opened up and down, and the figure of the young man with golden eyes emerged from it, motionless like a sculpture.
After a long time, a long sigh of relief was heard, and Shuoyue seemed to have been drained of all his energy. He fell directly on the bed, his chest rising and falling slightly, and it was obvious that he was still frightened.
In the battle with the Hero King Gilgamesh, it seemed that he had the upper hand and escaped unscathed after a wave of taunts, but in fact, when the ancient king was completely enraged, Shuoyue realized the difference between Angelica and Gilgamesh.
A lifeless man, just an Endsworthy family thug, a killing machine, cold and dull.
One who had experienced the glory of the Age of Gods, bound the Bull of Heaven, and seized the Elixir of Immortality, was the king of a country.
The difference between the two is like heaven and earth.
The reason why Shuoyue turned around and left without hesitation was, on the one hand, that all the imaginary magic had been experimented with, and he also had to guard against certain guys' snooping; on the other hand, it was actually because Gilgamesh's aura was too strong, which made him a little eager to fight.
Once I am stimulated——
Before drawing out the sword of Lie, Jin Shanshan would be either dead or disabled.
Taking into account his remaining life and the detailed plans for the future, Shuoyue chose to abandon the shadow of virtual numbers and withdraw.
As for whether the Shadow of Imaginary Numbers will cause harm to Gilgamesh?
For things like this, we can only imagine them.
From the fact that Gilgamesh interfered with Shuoyue's imaginary submarine voyage, it can be seen that he definitely possesses a treasure that can restrain the imaginary attribute. The attack of the imaginary shadow almost hurt Gilgamesh, but in fact it was more because the hero king made the same old mistake of underestimating the enemy.
"Sure enough, as an opponent, Gilgamesh is much easier to deal with than Wise King Gilgamesh." Shuoyue sighed softly, turned over like a dried salted fish, put his arm on his forehead, and planned to take a nap.
Anyway, the imaginary number magic experiment is completed and the masters of the Holy Grail War have not yet arrived. In the few days before the war begins, he should enjoy these last beautiful times with Miyu and Sakura.
"Knock knock knock." The door was knocked cautiously, and the girl's cautious voice came from outside the door.
"Onii-chan, are you asleep?"
Shuoyue jumped up from the bed, took a deep breath, a deep breath, a deep breath... Then he pretended to be calm and opened the door.
The moonlight shone through the glass window onto the corridor. Miyu, wearing Sakura Matou's teddy bear pajamas, which made her look more naive, stood in front of Shuoyue with a slightly blushing face.
She didn't say anything, but Shuoyue already understood something.
"I remember that you prefer to stay in the Japanese-style room, right, Miyu? Are you unable to sleep because you are not used to the room?"
The Japanese-style room is a unique room in traditional Japanese houses. Walking barefoot on the mats made of natural rush feels like wandering in nature.
In the world line, both the Sakutsuki family and the Emiya family are traditional Japanese buildings. For Miyu, this is her first time to experience such a grand and bright Chinese-style room.
"Yes... yes, the room is too big." As if she felt ashamed that she was still afraid to sleep alone, the girl lowered her head and rubbed her legs unconsciously, "When I turn off the lights at night... it's a bit scary."
In response, Shuoyue couldn't help but laugh softly. Before the girl ran away in shame, he stretched out his arms and scooped up the small moon. Amid exclamations, the brother and his sister lay on the bed:
"Then sleep with me tonight, I will protect you."
"Yeah." Miyu's cheek was pressed against the young man's chest, and after a long while, she uttered an inaudible response.
The familiar, reassuring scent gently enveloped her once again.
There were still many things she wanted to say and many questions she wanted to ask, but in the end, Miyu closed her eyes and fell into a hazy dream.
Beside her, the young man who once had red hair but now had white hair leaned slightly against the head of the bed, his golden eyes lowered, looking at the girl with eyes full of tenderness and doting.
As for the fact that Servants can transform into spirits... he has ignored it.
As Shirou, as Sakutsuki, as an older brother.
Sweet dreams.
Chapter 31 Story and Assassin's Death
Two days later, in the morning.
Lancelot
[Character Information]: Lancelot was one of King Arthur's twelve knights of the round table. He was a great knight known as the "Knight of the Lake" and the "Flower of Knights". His affair with Queen Guinevere led to the destruction of Camelot. He is the symbol of the defeat of King Arthur's legend.
He is forever imprisoned by madness because of his obsession of accepting too much honor and dying in regret, especially because of his love and hate for the king and queen that he can never answer. In order to suppress this distress and pursue that encounter, the dark knight will continue his battle.
[Hidden Intelligence]: Insufficient conditions
Recording conditions
1. Get Lancelot's recognition
2. Defeat Lancelot
3. Free Lancelot from madness
“Hmm…” Sakutsuki and Kariya stood side by side, while the knight in black armor stood silently in front of them, like a puppet without a spring. Only the tassels on the back of the armor trembled slightly, proving that the knight still had instinctive consciousness.
"The holy sword master who possesses the sword of promised victory, who was adopted and raised by the lake spirits since childhood, and who is known as the flower of knights, I never thought he would fall into such a state."
“You actually know him…!” Even though he was used to Sakutsuki’s great powers, Kariya still felt uncomfortable when his Servant’s real name was revealed so easily.
"Of course. The culprit of the split of the Knights of the Round Table, the Knight of the Lake, Lancelot, anyone who has read the legend of King Arthur would know him. As Shuoyue spoke, he tried to pull out the sword at Lancelot's waist, but the latter grabbed his wrist and prevented him from taking a step forward.
“Kareya.”
“I know, I know, let go.” Yanye gave the order helplessly, causing the man who looked more like a beast than a knight to lower his arms and allow Shuoyue to draw the long sword at his waist.
The elven characters engraved on the blade glowed slightly, flowing with a radiance like the shining lake water under the moon.
The holy sword Arondate is also known as the indestructible lake light.
Even though it has turned into a magic sword, its brilliance cannot be concealed.
The unlit underground training ground shone with a sapphire-like light the moment the sword was pulled out, as if it had sunk to the bottom of a lake. The beautiful scene made the two grown men lose their minds.
"Mercy, generosity, wisdom, honor, bravery... I also passed the test of the five virtues of knighthood and obtained the Sword of the Lady of the Lake from Lake Seravi in Toussaint." Shuoyue stroked the sword and sighed softly as if she missed it. "It's a pity that I lost it again and can never find it again."
"You have done such a thing! And what is Toussaint? Is there a mysterious island there?" Kariya was horrified and then severely despised by the latter.
"Of course it's fake. What era is this now? Mystery has faded, okay? Fairies and elves are all in the inner world. Where can I get a sword made by God?"
"Then what you said is true!"
Shuoyue smiled without saying a word, and put the undestroyed lake light back into Lancelot's scabbard, and the basement returned to its dim state.
The dead of night is perfect for storytelling.
"Let's tell a story about a knight..." The young man's voice was long, gently picking up the history of the past.
That was the last romantic era of this planet, the twilight period when mystery, magic and fairies still remained on the island and the sanctuary still existed.
Most of the legends about the Knights of the Round Table also come from this period - and the King of Knights still led many knights to run around, expel foreign races, protect his people, and left behind many heroic deeds that were passed down by people.
There was a knight from France who heard the rumors of the Sword in the Stone and the Ideal King on the other side of the Channel. After being compared with Arthur by his subjects, he set foot on British soil out of dissatisfaction and curiosity.
During a certain battle, he fought alongside the Knight King, and eventually realized that the strength of the King of Light lay not in his physique, but in his unshakable faith.
He was moved by the king's will and willingly offered his loyalty to become a member of the Round Table.
As he was from a foreign country, this knight paid more attention to individuals than the British, so he noticed the abnormality between the king and the round table. He was extremely indignant about the words of the round table knight Tristan when he left, "I don't understand people's hearts", and reached a consensus with the princess Guinevere who also wanted to share the king's worries.
In the tenth year of King Arthur's reign, the knight's affair with Guinevere was exposed.
In the battle to save the princess, the knight killed Agrawen, accidentally killed Gawain's brother, and injured Gawain the Sun Knight. He eventually left Britain with the princess and returned to his territory in Europe.
Even so, King Arthur still forgave him.
But in the end, Arthur's son Mordred started a rebellion. When the knight received the letter asking for help written by Gawain before his death, he came from afar to support King Arthur in quelling the rebellion, but he was too late. The battle between the king and the rebellious son had already ended.
——The legend of Knight King Arthur came to an end and the kingdom collapsed.
After that, the knight spent the rest of his life in regret.
When Sakutsuki finished her story, she found that there were two more listeners - black-haired Miyu and purple-haired Sakura.
For little girls, this tragic knight story is undoubtedly the most touching one.
And Yan Ye had been standing in front of him without him noticing, looking at him with complicated eyes.
"I see, this is why I summoned you..."
, King Arthur and his wife Guinevere.
Matou Kariya, Tōsaka Tokiomi and Zenjo Aoi.
How similar are they?
The man, filled with madness, whispered, more like a beast than a knight.
“If it were you, what would you do, Yanye?” Shuoyue’s question brought Yanye back to consciousness. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the complexity in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a determination not to turn back until he hit a wall.
"I will not let the one I love deeply fall into pain. Tokiomi is wrong, so I will correct him."
"Even if Aoi doesn't choose you in the end?"
Kariya clenched his hands into fists and turned his head away, conveying his will with silence.
At the same time, he didn't want Shuoyue to see the burning ambition in his eyes.
Holy Grail War, Holy Grail...
And Sakutsuki did not notice anything unusual about Kariya. He just patted his shoulder to show encouragement, then walked to Miyu, squatted down, and looked into her amber eyes: "Have you tried it?"
"Yes." Miyu, who was wearing a purple-themed magical girl costume with a strap on her left leg, nodded, "The class card is in normal condition and can be used."
"Very good." After getting the answer he wanted, the young man with golden eyes smiled with satisfaction, "Since you came to me, there must be new developments in the Holy Grail War, right?"
"Yes." Miyu nodded, her face calm, and said, "Just last night, I tried to break through the barrier of the Tohsaka family."
"And then?" The key words were triggered, and Yan Ye suddenly became serious and asked in a deep voice.
Miyu paused, with a rare hint of disbelief in her tone, and said:
"Then, he was killed."
Toussaint, Knight of the Five Virtues, Sword of the Lady of the Lake - from The Witcher 3
Chapter 32 Knight and Princess
Especially for the magicians gathered in Fuyuki City, there are two places that are the focus of their attention. They are the two mansions of the Matou family and the Tousaka family, which are equally magnificent and stand on the hills of Miyama Town.
It was common knowledge that the Master who wanted to obtain the Holy Grail lived in these two houses. Therefore, low-level servants often appeared here day and night for surveillance purposes. The owner of the house had anticipated this situation and had set up more than 10 or 20 layers of barriers in the courtyard of the mansion for detection and defense. From the perspective of magic, they had transformed the house into a military fortress.
Of course, the Matou family had become a shell within a year, and the real master of the Matou family and his allies were hiding in another place in Miyama Town, also monitoring the rival Tosaka family.
Do you think that the Masters are being too cautious, or even cowardly?
Regarding this point, except for Shuoyue who is an outlier, I am afraid that other magicians will not be ashamed of it, but proud of it.
Although magicians possess mysterious powers, they are still human beings at heart. Their bodies are not much stronger. They will bleed if their skin is cut, and they will die if they are killed.
This is not the case with Servants. Even the weakest Servant possesses power far beyond that of humans. Today, the number of beings in the mysterious world that are in direct confrontation with Servants is no more than ten digits.
Therefore, the primary task of the Holy Grail War is not to win, but to preserve oneself - if you die, you will have nothing.
Just like the previous battle between the group and Sakutsuki, wasn't Iskandar forced into such a miserable state by a simple magic ball attack just to protect his master?
Until they are sure of their own safety, the Masters will naturally hide in the dark carefully and collect information in various ways.
Tōsaka Tokiomi used his disciple Kotomine Kirei and the Cathedral Church, Kariya used the influence of the Matou family and the familiars used for surveillance, Kenneth and Weber used their own familiars, and Sakutsuki... well, Sakutsuki basically didn't need any intelligence, after all, he had already stored it in his head.
