In the anime, Kira Yoshikage longs for a peaceful life

Saber did not comment, and said calmly:

"With the power of the Holy Grail, it is easy to change Britain's fate of destruction. If it were me in the past, I might really make such a wish.

"Someone once told me that the more scheming humans are, the more likely they are to fall into unexpected predicaments. Even if I wish to change Britain's future, even if Britain will not repeat the same mistakes as in history, it will eventually perish.

"The end is already determined. Britain has been destroyed. The country I dedicated my life to no longer exists. I will mourn it and feel sad, but I will not regret it, because there is no point in clinging to the past. If you must ask me what my wish is-"

Saber paused for a moment, and then looked much more relaxed:

"I just want to live a peaceful life."

For her, speaking out what she had been holding in her heart was a way to relieve herself of the burden.

Perhaps in the eyes of the world, the Knight King represents glory and is a hero who leads the people, but is this not also a kind of shackles called responsibility?

She once embarked on a journey with heavy shackles, like a moth to a flame, and even burned herself out.

But Britain had been destroyed, and with it the chains that had bound her all her life.

She was once a knight king, bound by responsibility all her life, a knight king who gave her all for Britain.

But that was only in the past.

The shackles called Britain no longer exist, and now she just wants to live for herself!

Mordred stared at Saber blankly, his eyes revealing complicated emotions.

She had always thought she knew her father very well, but now she realized that was just her wishful thinking. She had never truly understood the girl in front of her.

Not a king, just an ordinary girl with dreams.

"I see."

Rider stroked his chin. It was indeed difficult to evaluate the Knight King in front of him.

Rider smiled and shook his head regretfully:

"Saber, I'm sorry I cannot agree with your kingly way."

"so what?"

Saber said calmly:

"Humans cannot understand each other. Just as you cannot agree with my way of kingship, I cannot agree with your way of kingship! Arguing is foolish because we all firmly believe in the path we take and will not be shaken by the words of others."

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Rider laughed heartily and said, "You are right, humans cannot understand each other!"

Mordred remained silent, standing quietly beside Saber, sword in hand.

She is not a king, has never been a king, and has never aspired to be a king.

So she couldn't understand what prompted her father's change of mind, and what made the once perfect king say such words.

On the one hand, the people of Britain longed for a perfect king, and naturally believed that the king should devote everything he had to the country. But on the other hand, they were afraid of the perfect king and even went so far as to rebel for this.

In the end, they began to doubt that the king was not perfect enough, the round table began to fall apart, and the king was not accepted and recognized. It was this doubt that made it easy for her to instigate control of Camelot, and it was this doubt that led Britain to destruction.

But in the end, who is responsible for all this?

Mordred couldn't figure it out before, and he still can't figure it out now.

But there was one thing she was very clear about—

It is never the king who is wrong, but Britain which is not worthy of the perfect king!

If she had any complaints about the king, it was probably what a certain knight said about the king:

"The king does not understand human nature."

The king does not understand the human heart, so Britain will be destroyed.

Mordred once thought it made sense.

but now……

“Isn’t that good?”

Mordred murmured to himself that the former king did not understand the human heart.

But doesn't the current 'king' understand human nature very well?

“Ahhhhh——!”

Waver suddenly screamed and ran towards Rider, and the Servants present also noticed the strangeness in the air around them.

In the atrium illuminated by the moonlight, human figures appeared one after another. They were of different heights, weights, and even genders. But without exception, they all wore black robes and pale skull masks.

They are Assassins, all of them.

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

Fuyuki Church.

The cold moonlight shines through the stained glass and shines into the silent chapel.

The flickering lights illuminated the priest sitting in the front row.

Behind him, the man sitting in the shadows spoke calmly:

"Cater has been eliminated. This is an indisputable fact."

"Indeed, the monitor's report confirms that."

The priest nodded slightly. Although he couldn't confirm what specific means they used, that was not within his consideration.

The Holy Grail War is a war where no means are unjust, and asking for the trump card rashly is extremely offensive.

Anyway, for the Holy Church, all they need to do is confirm that Caster has been destroyed.

Emiya Kiritsugu leaned forward slightly and said in a low voice:

"Then, should you now hand over the Command Seal to me as agreed?"

"of course."

Kotomine Ritsu was standing up, "Please extend your hand."

Although the plan went awry, it wasn't Archer who killed Caster.

But as long as the mission is completed, he should not break his promise as a neutral supervisor. If anyone is to blame, it can only be blamed on Tōsaka Tokiomi's own lack of effort.

Emiya Kiritsugu did not immediately extend his hand, but asked:

"If you kill Caster's Master, can you give me an extra Command Seal?"

He took out a stack of photos from his pocket. On them were photos taken from different angles, showing the body of a man lying on the ground with a bullet piercing his heart, and a close-up of the Command Seal on the back of his right hand.

Emiya Kiritsugu narrated calmly:

"Uzumura Ryunosuke, I found him in the shopping street. The bracelet on his hand is a simple magic prop. There are also several kidnapped children at the scene. I think this should be able to prove his identity."

"Unfortunately, the reward is still only one Command Seal."

Kotomine Risei frowned and rejected the idea.

One extra Command Seal can bring a great advantage to the Master in itself, and two can almost secure the victory.

Whether for public or private reasons, Kotomine Risei did not want the man in front of him to win the Holy Grail War.

"let it go."

Emiya Kiritsugu did not hesitate and put away the photo while extending his right hand engraved with the Command Seal.

He originally just wanted to give it a try. If it worked, that would be the best, but if not, there would be no loss.

Kotomine Li was using her skilled technique to draw secret marks on the man's outstretched right hand, transferring one of the Command Seals stored on his right wrist to his hand.

The whole process only takes a few minutes and is not even painful.

"Then please continue to fight a glorious war as a Master."

Kotomine Li was rolling up her sleeves again to cover her right arm which was engraved with Command Seals.

"Of course."

Emiya Kiritsugu nodded slightly and stood up from the bench.

But as the priest turned around, Emiya Kiritsugu opened his coat, revealing a hidden submachine gun, and pulled the trigger at the priest's back.

Da da da da da—!

Amidst everyone's incredulous gazes, the priest, who was beaten to a pulp, fell in a pool of blood.

Emiya Kiritsugu turned and left calmly. Hisau Maiya's voice came from the headset:

"Is this really a good idea? Killing him would be equivalent to becoming an enemy of the Holy Church, which would definitely lead to their revenge."

"It doesn't matter. This war will be over soon."

Emiya Kiritsugu walked out of the church, looked up at the moon in the sky, and murmured softly.

The alliance between Berserker and Saber was not what he expected, and Einzbern did not tell him about it. But his intuition told Kiritsugu Emiya that Berserker's current master was not Matou Kariya, but someone else.

Although it is unknown how they did it, it is very likely that Berserker's new Master is Irisviel.

Although this Holy Grail War has only been going on for two days, Lancer and Caster have already left the battlefield, leaving only three camps:

Saber and berserker, Archer and Assassin, and Rider.

Rider is a lone man, and his faction is the weakest.

Although there are many Assassins, their individual strength is very weak and they are no match for other Servants.

So no matter how you look at it, they have the greatest advantage.

But the other way around.

The final outcome will most likely be a confrontation between Saber and Berserker.

Caster was also defeated by Saber and Berserker working together, which means that Berserker's Master could also obtain a Command Seal.

Therefore, he must eliminate the interference factor of Kotomine Risei in order to ensure the advantage he has established now.

What's more, the priest is not innocent.

He did not remain neutral in this Holy Grail War, but clearly sided with Tōsaka Tokiomi.

Even if he was killed by him, I think the priest would not have any complaints.

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

The sun is scorching the earth, the sky is clear and bright, and all the way to the horizon blurred by sand and gravel, there is no obstruction in the view.

The castle at night changed in an instant, replaced by the inherent barrier that materialized the mental image!

"This is the land where my army once roamed, and this is the scenery that will always be in the hearts of the warriors who have shared my joys and sorrows!

"This world, this landscape, is what it is because it is the image in all of our minds!"

In the astonished eyes of everyone, physical cavalry appeared one after another around Iskandar. Although they have different races and equipment, their strong bodies and brave knights all show the strength of the army.

"Behold my unrivaled army!"

Filled with pride and arrogance, the King of Conquerors stood in front of the cavalry and raised his arms high and shouted:

"Even if their bodies are destroyed and their souls are summoned by the world as heroic spirits, they still remain loyal to me, the legendary warriors! The bond between me and them is my greatest treasure! My kingly way! It is the strongest treasure of Iskander—

"The King's Army!!"

Rider jumped on his horse, swung his sword at the Assassin in the distance, and shouted an order:

"Rampage it!"

"AAAALaLaLaLaLaie!!"

The unrivaled army responded to the king's order and charged towards the Assassins who were already in chaos.

It was a massacre, a one-sided massacre.

The Assassins, who had no advantage in either numbers or strength, were slaughtered in the blink of an eye by the charge of the army, leaving only a hint of blood and stirred-up dust in the air.

"——Oooh!!"

In the cheers of victory, the heroic spirits praised the king's name.

Then, everything shattered like bubbles.
