In this crossover anime, Yoshikage Kira longs for a peaceful life.

Accept your fate with equanimity, accept your death with equanimity.

Although they did not die on the battlefield, as long as they were truly loyal to their lord and died for him, that was enough.

Kenneth raised his head, his voice trembling slightly as he called out the servant's name:

"Diarmuid, I'm sorry."

For Kenneth, even Servants who command Heroic Spirits are no different from other Mystic Codes.

It's just a useful tool, nothing more.

Upon receiving Lacner's answer for the first time, he could only suspect that Lancer harbored malicious intentions.

Because he absolutely does not believe that there are any Servants who do not pursue the Holy Grail, since Servants who do not pursue the Holy Grail cannot be summoned by the Holy Grail at all!

Even from the very beginning, Kenneth knew part of the truth about the Holy Grail War.

He knew that even if Lancer didn't betray him, he would definitely betray Lancer—

All Servants are sacrifices; from the very beginning, only the Master can grant wishes.

The Master who knows the truth will surely leave behind a final Command Seal, and the command of this Command Seal will surely be to make the Servant commit suicide!

But now.

Kenneth seems to finally understand the loyalty Lancer craves, though it's too late.

A look of relief flashed across Lancer's eyes, and a smile appeared on his face:

"Please do not grieve for me, Master. To die loyally is the most glorious end for a knight!"

Lancer discarded the red rose and slowly raised the yellow rose, aiming it at her heart.

"and many more!"

Yoshikage Kira intervened.

"And what do you mean by that?"

Kenneth glared at him. Don't you have any sense of atmosphere?

Yoshikage Kira smiled:

"I never said I wanted you to commit suicide, did I?"

Lnacer frowned:

"So, you want me to die in battle against other Servants?"

Is the intention to use him to weaken the other Servants?

Indeed, this is the choice that maximizes his value.

This is not necessarily a bad thing for Lancer.

Although he was willing to die for his lord, suicide was still a very frustrating thing.

Even dying in battle is an honor.

"No, they died in the battle with me."

Yoshikage Kira pointed to himself and corrected him.

“It seems you’re not so despicable after all.” Lnacer’s eyes flickered, a hint of eagerness in them.

Based on the strength they previously demonstrated, they are indeed qualified to fight against Servants!

Anyway, let's shake hands first.

Yoshikage Kira stepped forward and extended his hand to Lancer.

Lancer hesitated for a moment, then reached out and shook hands with him.

When a servant is born into the world, he will be instilled with modern knowledge and will know that shaking hands is a way of expressing etiquette.

But do the Cavaliers have to shake hands before a match?

Shouldn't it be a bow?

Lancer looked at her Master, but Kenneth was equally confused.

As for why we shake hands?

Once it was confirmed that Lancer had returned, Assassin had self-destructed, and Irisviel was no longer in danger, Yoshikage Kira had already retrieved Killer Queen.

A handshake, of course, is for planting a bomb!

Snapped!

Kira Yoshikage pressed his thumb, and Lancer 'disappeared' along with his questions.

Silently, without warning.

Kenneth's pupils contracted sharply; he had no idea how Lancer had died!

"What did you do?!"

Kenneth angrily questioned.

Yoshikage Kira glanced at him:

"He's dead, the contract has taken effect, you should have sensed it, right?"

"Despicable scoundrel!"

Kenneth glared at him through gritted teeth, furious that a knight would betray his trust even as he lay dying.

You are a disgrace to magicians!

Kira Yoshikage ignored him, grabbed Sora by the collar, and threw her back to Kenneth.

As the latter hurriedly reached out to catch his wife, preventing her from falling through the crack in the corridor, Yoshikage Kira suddenly spoke:

"I forgot to tell you, my name is not Joseph Joestar."

"so what?"

Kenneth sneered, "Even if the name is fake, the contract will still bind you to it."

Kira Yoshikage glanced at him but didn't look at him, and continued:

"I'm not a magician either."

Kenneth's smile froze.

"I don't have a magic mark either."

Yoshikage Kira continued narrating in a calm tone:

"Even the so-called contract means nothing to me, after all..."

Snapped!

Kira Yoshikage pressed his thumb, and Kenny immediately felt a pang of panic.

Because he could feel that the binding force of the contract he had just signed had disappeared.

No! It's not that it disappeared, but rather that it's as if it never existed at all!

As long as you can touch it, there's nothing an explosion can't solve.

Kenneth's smile gradually faded, but Yoshikage Kira revealed a kind smile.

Chapter 223 True Simps Get Away with House

"The contract... it's gone just like that?"

Kenneth's smile vanished completely, and his forehead was covered in a thick layer of cold sweat.

The image of Lancer, who had just vanished into thin air, suddenly popped into his mind. If the other party could make Lancer disappear into thin air, would it be difficult for him to make himself disappear without the constraints of a contract?

In the world of magic, magicians are usually assigned a 'rank' corresponding to their skill level, from highest to lowest as follows:

The positions of Grand, Brand, Pride, Fes, Cause, Count, and Frame.

Even in the world of magic, where talent abounds and bloodlines are paramount, Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald is a true genius!

He displayed talent worthy of being called a child prodigy during his student days, consistently achieving exceptional results before the age of ten. He reached the third rank, the Gentleman rank, in his teens, and his current rank is the Color rank.

Although it is ranked second, magicians who can be rated as Grand rank are extremely rare. Generally, the Color rank is considered the highest in reality, and most monarchs stop there.

But Kenneth is different. With his talent, he might actually have a chance to reach the championship in the future!

In addition, he is the head of the Archibald family, a magician family that has continued for nine generations, the monarch of the El-Melloi School and the Minerals Department (Kishua), and the fourth of the twelve monarchs who control the Clock Tower of the Mage's Association, making him an absolute superior monarch.

He also served as a first-class lecturer in the Department of Spellcasting (Eureka), becoming the youngest person in the history of the Department of Spellcasting to reach the lecturer position, and was engaged to Sora Nazele Sofiari, the daughter of the Minister of Spellcasting.

Whether it's skill, talent, status, connections, power, or background, he has reached the pinnacle of the magic world!

He has always had immense confidence in his life, which is why he confidently participated in the Holy Grail War, even bringing his fiancée along. His reason for bringing her, however, was to transfer the magical energy supply needed to maintain the Servant's presence to her, thus giving him more magical energy to deal with the other participants.

But the real reason was that Kenneth was so arrogant from the beginning that he was convinced he could get the Holy Grail, so he wanted to share his victory with his fiancée. He even gave her the chance to make a wish!

As for the initial three starter Pokémon?

Kenneth never took them seriously, and the Einzbern family, whose members were not proficient in magic, were always the ones who fought. Let's not even mention them. The current head of the Tohsaka family, Tokiomi Tohsaka, was also mediocre in talent, and the Matou family didn't even have a qualified magician.

Even if we take a step back and assume that the Matou family head Zouken Matou and the Tohsaka family head Eito Tohsaka were at their peak, they were only at the third rank, the Nobunaga rank, which was a level that Kenneth had already reached when he was a teenager.

Now, he is confident enough to crush Zouken Matou and Eito Tohsaka in their prime.

Even when facing so-called Servants, he was confident that he could compete with them.

This is the confidence that color gradation brings him!

Indeed, this is true. If we only consider the magical skill of the Masters themselves, the other six Masters combined cannot match Kenneth. The only one who can rival him is Tokiomi Tohsaka, and that is only because Tokiomi Tohsaka has the advantage of the Fuyuki City spiritual vein.

However, it was precisely because of Kenneth's arrogance that he mistakenly believed that other Masters would fight him fair and square using magic.

He had no idea that this war was ruthless from the very beginning.

"So, you're going to kill me?"

Kenneth gave a bitter smile as he looked down at his fiancée in his arms, a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

To die alongside Sora might not be so bad.

"No,"
