Even if he were killed by him, the priest probably wouldn't have any complaints.

-----------------

The scorching sun beat down on the earth, the clear blue sky stretched to the horizon, blurred by sand, and there was nothing obstructing the view.

The castle at night transforms in an instant, replaced by an inherent barrier materialized from mental images!

"This is the land where my army once roamed, a landscape that will forever remain in the hearts of my warriors who shared my joys and sorrows!"

"This world, this landscape, is formed because it is the mental image of all of us!"

To everyone's astonishment, materialized cavalrymen began to appear around Iskandar. Although they varied in race and equipment, their strong physiques and valiant knights unmistakably demonstrated the army's formidable strength.

"Behold, my unparalleled army!"

Filled with pride and self-confidence, the Conqueror King stood before the cavalry ranks, raised his arms, and shouted:

"Even if their bodies perish and their souls are summoned by the world as Heroic Spirits, the legendary warriors who still remain loyal to me! The bond I share with them is my greatest treasure! My path to supremacy! It is my strongest Noble Phantasm—"

"The King's Army!!"

Rider mounted his horse, brandished his sword at the distant Assassin, and shouted the order:

"Ruin them!"

“AAAALaLaLaLaLaie!!”

The unparalleled army responded to the king's command and charged towards the Assassins who were already in complete disarray.

This was a massacre, a one-sided massacre.

The Assassins, who were outnumbered and outmatched in strength, were slaughtered in the blink of an eye by the army's charge, leaving only a faint smell of blood and swirling dust in the air.

"—Ooh!!"

Amidst the cheers of victory, the spirits of the fallen heroes sang praises of the king's might.

Then, everything shattered like a bubble.

The scenery returned to its original nighttime state, and they were back in the courtyard of Eindzbern Castle.

The pure white moonlight exuded tranquility, and not a speck of dust could be seen in the air.

Archer remained seated, unmoved by the magnificent royal army, calmly raising his cup to drink alone.

Snapped!

"Who gave you permission to touch me?!"

Enraged at being patted on the shoulder for no reason, Gilgamesh immediately unleashed a golden vortex above his head, from which emerged a magically radiant artifact, as if it were about to tear the sinner who dared to insult the royal body to shreds in the next second.

However, when Gilgamesh turned around, he only had time to see the person who patted him on the shoulder give him a thumbs up.

A hint of surprise flashed in Jin Shanshan's eyes, but before he could speak, his thumb had already pressed down.

BOOM!

Explosion is an art.

A silent explosion is a quiet art.

Like a tranquil night, quiet and beautiful.

Saber's expression was complicated, and he seemed hesitant to speak.

But Mordred grinned and raised his sword to strike Rider.

Taking advantage of someone's misfortune is not the act of a knight, but she is not a knight, but a warrior.

This was personally confirmed by the King of Knights!

Chapter 232 This doorknob has already been touched by the Assassin Queen!

Mordred!

As soon as Saber spoke, Mordred, who had been about to strike Rider's head with his sword, obediently retreated despite his displeasure.

Although the rebellious knight was itching to fight, he couldn't disobey his 'father's' orders.

"You're kidding..."

Waver, Rider's Master, hid his body completely behind Rider, his voice trembling.

That's Archer!

His first appearance was incredibly intimidating, and even Rider found him very troublesome in the battle at the docks.

Yet this powerful Servant did absolutely nothing, not even having a chance to use his Noble Phantasm, and was killed right under their noses. What's more, his killer wasn't a Servant like Saber or Berserker, but a man they'd never seen before, and even the way he killed Archer was utterly incomprehensible!

Although Weber knew that someone giving him a thumbs-up might not necessarily be a compliment, but could also be an attempt to kill him, how could someone kill someone just by giving them a thumbs-up?

What's more, he didn't kill ordinary people, but Servants, the clones of Heroic Spirits!

If Rider's fight against Assassin was a massacre, then what the opponent is doing now is as simple as dusting off his clothes!

"Oh dear, one against three, the situation is not good."

Rider sighed deeply, but there was no fear on his face; instead, there was a hint of anticipation.

It's just three people, isn't it?

He also possesses the might of a king's army, with countless heroic spirits following him awaiting a grand war. Assassin is simply too easily killed; there's no fun in crushing battles, only powerful enemies can excite him!

“Kira,”

Saber slowly stood up and asked softly, "And Lord Mordred, can I take care of things here?"

"As you wish."

Yoshikage Kira did not persist and voluntarily retreated, relinquishing the battlefield.

The reason he was able to easily kill Gilgamesh was because Rider created a barrier that pulled Gilgamesh in as well, which allowed him to wait outside the barrier early on and thus easily touch Gilgamesh's shoulder.

However, it's not so easy for Rider to get close if he's alert.

However, unlike Gilgamesh, even with the King's Army, Rider is not that difficult to deal with.

Even if it's just Saber alone, she might not necessarily lose.

“Rdier”.

Waver nervously called out to his servant, but even in the face of this unfavorable situation, Rider remained calm and composed, instead asking with great interest:

"Saber, you said you don't crave the Holy Grail, so what are you doing right now?"

"I'm not lying to you, I truly do not crave the Holy Grail."

Saber gripped the invisible sword tightly with both hands and calmly said:

"However, now that I have joined this Holy Grail War, everyone else who aims for the Holy Grail is my enemy."

"I see."

Rider glanced at Mordred, as if he understood something.

The Holy Grail War is a war that can only be won by one side. Even if Saber does not desire the Holy Grail, the other Servants will inevitably regard her as an enemy and try to eliminate her.

Therefore, Saber had no choice but to eliminate the other Servants who craved the Holy Grail and win the Holy Grail War!

Of course, she and the other Servants are not necessarily enemies.

If other Servants give up the pursuit of the Holy Grail, the battle can be avoided, as Mordred did.

With two Servants already in agreement, the Holy Grail War will not end as long as they remain alive. To ensure their continued survival, it is essential to eliminate other hostile Servants first.

Rider suddenly smiled and joked to himself:

"Speaking of which, wouldn't you say Archer and I walked right into a trap?"

"What kind of time is this to be joking around..."

Webber was on the verge of tears. "Don't you want to take a look at the situation on the court first?"

"Kid, be optimistic, we're not necessarily going to lose."

Rider, somewhat annoyed, lifted Webber up, then flicked his forehead, sending him flying. "Get away from me, don't bother me."

Mordred frowned and asked:

"Rider, you still won't give up?"

Saber's goal is not the Holy Grail, but to prevent others from obtaining it.

Rider certainly understood this, because their relationship wasn't one of irreconcilable conflict like in the Holy Grail War. If he, like Mordred, had relinquished the Holy Grail, this battle could have been completely avoided.

but,

Rider laughed heartily:

"Conquest has no end, and as the King of Conquest, I certainly won't give up easily! We haven't even fought yet, how do you know I can't win?"

Webber, who was thrown into the flower bed, stared blankly at Rider's back. He knew that someone like him could never be compared to a true hero, and didn't even have the right to stand with him.

But even someone like him would be impressed by the heroism of others!

"My servant, Waver Velvet commands it by a Command Spell!"

Webber raised his clenched right hand, revealing the three unused Command Seals on the back of his hand. "Rider, you must achieve final victory."

"By Command Spell, Rider, you must seize the Holy Grail."

"I will now give you a Command Spell: Rider, you must conquer the whole world, you cannot fail!"

The three Command Seals on Waver's hand disappeared one by one, instantly replenishing Rider's mana, which had been depleted from unleashing his Noble Phantasm, and making it even purer than before.

Command Seals are essentially crystallizations of immense magical power, used to bind and forcibly command Servants. However, besides this, Command Seals can also be used directly to strengthen Servants, which is currently the only thing he can do for Rider!

and……

Weber looked down at his hands; the Command Seals etched on them had vanished without a trace.

While feeling disappointed, Weber also felt a strange sense of relief.

Without Command Seals, Rider is not bound by his Master. Even if he is killed, Rider can still defeat Saber and Berserker using the immense magical power provided by the Command Seals!

Therefore,

You have to win, Rider!
