There are many anomalies in this Holy Grail War.

"But you have to wait a while. Wait until I finish the things at hand." Emiya Shirou glanced at the TV next to him that was not turned on.

Saber looked over there, but found nothing at all.

Time returns to the present.

Shirou Emiya looked at Saber's heroic face and didn't know how to say what was in his heart.

"Emiya, Shirou. I can call you that, right?

"Why are you staring at my face? Don't you have something to say?"

Saber responded to Emiya Shirou's gaze without being servile or arrogant. If it were anyone else, being stared at by the Knight King's arrogant and awe-inspiring gaze would probably make them feel ashamed.

But now Emiya Shirou has, in a sense, surpassed Saber, who is said to have the strongest job among the seven servants.

"Saber, what is your wish? What is the purpose of responding to the call of the Holy Grail?" Emiya Shirou started from this.

"Save my homeland, Britain."

The legend of the Holy Grail, the universal wishing machine, has a long history. When King Arthur was in power, in order to save his hometown of Britain, King Arthur sent his Knights of the Round Table to find the Holy Grail. At that time, one of the Knights of the Round Table found the Holy Grail. But until his death, he was unable to see the Holy Grail he brought back.

Emiya Shirou also knew this and looked at the stern-looking girl in front of him.

When did she transform from a weak girl into a king?

Does she really understand the meaning of being a king?

Just to save the country, he pulled out the sword in the stone.

Wearing a crown that is called a crown but is actually a shackle, he moves forward with a heavy burden.

I have never lived a good life, but I took action and did those things just to save my hometown.

She had never lived a single day as a human being, as a young girl just beginning to fall in love.

Just carry on.

She regarded that incident as the meaning of her existence.

But in the end, that meaning was also denied.

They said, "The king does not understand the human heart."

Indeed, the king does not understand human nature. He is just doing a self-righteous act of salvation.

To go to war, to search for something as illusive as the Holy Grail.

It was only because of his martial arts and the authority of the Sword in the Stone that he was crowned the king.

Knight King, Knight King, first a knight, then a king.

But how can a knight be compared with a king?

The lower class residents only want to live, a full meal, and a drink of water that will not make them sick.

She couldn't do it.

There were constant wars and natural disasters in the country, and the land was unable to grow food.

The middle class residents are eager to live a better life and do not want to live in displacement.

I haven't been able to do it either.

Instead of trying to appease people, he was just looking for the legendary Holy Grail.

The upper class elite want to live a good life.

But since even the king himself was frugal, how could the ministers dare to overstep their bounds? So they restrained their desires and lived an ascetic life.

The knights want glory and the command of the king.

However, on their way to glory, there is a biggest wall blocking them. The name of that wall is, the King of Knights.

He married a princess named Guinevere.

But King Arthur had no way to give the princess the love and satisfaction that a woman wants.

Has a son, Mordred.

But he never recognized her.

As far as I can remember, I have been training and fighting, wondering why I fought so hard and defeated so many enemies, but the country still perished.

But no one has thought about the fundamental problems of the country.

Of course, all this is just to establish the world line in which the legend says that King Arthur failed. If King Arthur succeeded, the above shortcomings would turn into advantages again. People would praise the king for his integrity and honesty that saved the people, and the king led the knights to charge and became the spiritual leader of the knights.

All of this is written by the victors.

“But during the Fourth Holy Grail War, Kiritsugu asked you to destroy the Holy Grail.

“The Holy Grail was already tainted on that occasion.

"Even if you obtain the Holy Grail, there is no way to save Britain in the way you want."

The current Holy Grail will fulfill the user's wishes in the worst possible way.

For example, if Saber now wants to save Britain, then maybe the Holy Grail could create an undead army called Britain to conquer other countries.

After hearing what Emiya Shirou said, Saber's face darkened, and a trace of unwillingness flashed in her eyes.

"I... still want to try."

"Even if this will cause the tragedy of ten years ago to happen again?" Emiya Shirou asked back, "Even if it will implicate the lives of many innocent people?"

Saber's eyes flashed with a trace of struggle, but she finally made up her mind, "I am willing to pay any price for the Holy Grail, even my own life."

Of course, of course I would say that.

From birth, the girl was destined to be born for Britain.

Protecting Britain, saving Britain, is the meaning of her life.

If even this meaning is denied, then is there really any value in her living?

She may have some kindness in her heart, but she has done all kinds of dirty things for Britain. She killed countless enemy soldiers, but they were still human beings.

He even betrayed his own chivalry, causing the Sword in the Stone to break.

Even so, we continue to run on this destructive road without stopping.

She would kill whoever stood in her way.

(Saber's character was not actually that naive at the beginning. In the original work, she would choose to kill Emiya due to a disagreement. Moreover, she had experienced many wars in the legend of King Arthur, and her hands were stained with blood.)

But, that is exactly the case.

"It's impossible to save Britain." Shirou Emiya couldn't help but sigh and said this.

"What's the meaning?"

Chapter 86: The Evil of Human Nature

“It is because there is no desire that one cannot guide people.

“People cannot worship a king like that.

“I just take it for granted that the king should do that.

“As a king, you should protect the people and be led by the people.

"What you deserve is not a king, but a slave."

Emiya Shirou's words deeply hurt Saber.

She vaguely remembered that Gilgamesh and another conqueror king, Iskandar, had said the same thing to her before.

She didn't understand.

"As a king, shouldn't you restrain your desires and bring a better life to your people?"

"Have you brought a better life to your people?"

Emiya Shirou's words stung Saber once again.

Saber wanted to say, you don't know anything, why are you judging me here? But the fact is, she did not bring a better life to her people.

“If not even those in high positions live as strictly and assiduously as you do.

“Who else would have the motivation and ambition to climb up?

"Also, there are incidents where a little kindness is paid back with a lot of hatred.

"If you give a starving person some food to ensure that he doesn't starve to death, he will be grateful. But if you keep giving him food and stop giving him food one day, he will complain that you don't give him food, that you don't give him enough, and that he is not the rich one.

“It’s the same with being a good person. If you do good things without asking for compensation, people will take it for granted.

“I thought since other people have helped me, it would be okay for them to help me too. They helped me for free before anyway, so I don’t have to pay a price this time.

“Until he stops helping you, you feel that person is just like that.

“But I never thought about why I have to help you all the time.

"You can't just say a few empty words and expect others to be grateful and help you."

“People can die of hunger and thirst.

“When people are killed, they die.

“King Arthur was the same, because he had no desires and always helped his people without asking for anything in return.

“Those people get used to your help, and then they feel that your help is not enough or good enough.

"A person who is starving to death will wonder why you didn't give him a bite to eat.

“The one who is full will complain to you why you don’t give him more.

"You don't need it yourself anyway. Right?"

What Shirou Emiya said was similar to what Gilgamesh and the others said to Saber before.

They also felt that Saber had no desires of her own and was bound by the shackles of the crown.

But this time, Shirou Emiya did not start from the perspective of the king, but from the perspective of human character.

"That's human nature," said Emiya Shirou.

"Did I really do something wrong?" A trace of confusion flashed in Saber's eyes.

I don’t know if it’s because Emiya Shirou’s charm is too great, but he actually made the determined Saber waver.

But in fact, it was because of what others said during the Fourth Holy Grail War, and because he chopped the Holy Grail to pieces, he knew that the Holy Grail was no longer an omnipotent wish-granting machine. In addition, after he appeared in the world, he saw the battle between Shirou Emiya and Archer, so he began to believe it a little.

Because Shirou Emiya is also a very powerful person, even stronger than the King of Heroes, so we should at least believe what such an excellent magician says.

Of course, if the Holy Grail is intact, you can make a wish. She is still the Knight King who has nothing but Britain in her eyes.

"No. You did nothing wrong." Emiya Shirou gave an unexpected answer.

Saber stared at Emiya Shirou in front of her in silence, as if she didn't understand why the other party said that.

“I have always believed that being a human being is something that one should be true to one’s heart.

"I have also been helping others without asking for anything in return. Maybe there will be one or two people who don't know how to be grateful.

“But I know that what I do is for my own satisfaction.

“When I see the smiles on other people’s faces, I feel more relaxed.

"As for Emiya Shirou, a fake, a phony, a hypocrite, that's it.

"I just want to help others. I don't think about whether they need my help or not.

"My ideal is to become a 'partner of justice'. This ideal is inherited from my adoptive father, Emiya Kiritsugu."

"Kiritsugu's ideal is to become a 'partner of justice'?" After ten years, Saber heard such words again, and she still couldn't imagine such a thing.

Because in her impression, Emiya Kiritsugu is an executioner without chivalry who is not afraid to use any means to achieve his goals.

"Even ideals are borrowed. My magic is just a copy of others' magic.
