My mother's love song

"It will definitely stall and fall. Of course, stopping the engine will have the same result."

Joan of Arc shouted nervously, "That's going to be terrible!"

Atalanta muttered impatiently: "This woman...what on earth is she thinking."

"Well... I think so." Rhodes smiled bitterly, "Jeanne, can't you stand airplanes?"

"Yes!"

Miss Saint replied without any shame.

Rhodes could feel her puffing out her chest with pride on the other end of the call.

"Okay, I'll chat with you during the flight."

"Really? That's great! I love you the most, Rod!"

Atalanta's face became increasingly gloomy, but Rhode had no other choice but to hold the girl's hand tightly and chat with Jeanne to ease her nervousness.

About ten minutes passed like this, and Rhodes and Atalanta felt the crisis coming at the same time.

They looked at each other.

At this time, Joan of Arc also reported that they were about to engage the enemy.

Rhodes grabbed the hunter's slender waist, hugged her with one hand, jumped out of the cabin, and turned into a black shadow and flew into the sky.

……

……

……

Although the existence of the temple's treasure [Sky Garden of Vanity] itself is very strange, the underground space where the altar containing the Holy Grail is located is an even more bizarre place.

In terms of area, it is far beyond the scale observed from the outside. I'm afraid that the space has been distorted by some kind of magic.

In the center of the altar, the stolen Fuyuki Holy Grail can be seen floating there.

That sacred figure emitting a bluish-white glow looked like the moon summoned into this space.

But what is even more amazing is the ceiling of this underground space, which is filled with "water" and is simply an inverted lake.

The lake is covered with colorful water lilies such as blue, red, and yellow, which look like a rainbow sky.

This is a construction achieved through the reverse concept of the "Vanity Sky Courtyard", a space that truly transcends the laws of physics.

In front of the altar, Amakusa Shiro took off all the clothes on his upper body, revealing countless knife wounds and burn marks on his brown skin.

The half-naked boy stretched his hands into the air and opened his palms as if he wanted to take the Holy Grail for himself.

The arms were filled with a different kind of radiance that was different from the dull glow of the Command Seals.

Amakusa Shiro's Noble Phantasm began to activate.

He took graceful steps toward the Holy Grail fixed in the air.

The phantom of a staircase made of corpses appeared under my feet.

The stairs were made from the victims who died along with Amakusa during the Shimabara Rebellion.

The corpses did not feel sad about the fact that they were trampled, but instead showed obvious joy.

They all sincerely feel grateful that they can be the cornerstone of world relief.

Trampling on his former companions, Amakusa took steps towards the Greater Holy Grail.

Seventeen years of life, more than sixty years of second life.

He devoted everything to it and has lived to this day.

I have lived to this day with the awareness of sacrificing everything.

Now, I am carrying billions of kindness on my shoulders.

Although the weight was so heavy that he almost crushed him, the young priest's face did not show the slightest sign of pain.

How could I lose.

Amakusa Shiro took a step forward.

Follow the "thread" that was connected when the magic power was supplied to connect the Holy Grail

In an instant, the world was turned upside down.

……

……

……

It has been several hours since Amakusa Shiro invested the Holy Grail, and it will probably take quite a while.

After watching the Master connect with the Greater Holy Grail and transform himself, Shakespeare temporarily returned to his study to continue writing.

At this time, Semiramis sent him a telepathic message, asking about Amakusa's condition.

After the Queen learned about the situation, Shakespeare planned to continue writing books without stopping.

"In that case, I will continue writing."

"Wait, Caster... I want to ask you a question first. Is the ending you expect from our Master glorious? Or fallen?"

After hearing this, Red Caster almost burst out laughing, but managed to hold it back.

“That’s certainly an honor.”

"I think you should know this, but I still want to remind you. If this plan fails because of the book you wrote, I will definitely make you take responsibility in the most painful way."

"Empress, please rest assured. My Master just reminded me of this with a Command Seal. Oh my, how regrettable... No, of course I never intended to write a tragedy from the beginning!"

“…Humph, who would believe what a clown like you says?

Listen, Caster. The moment you decided that the book you wrote was of no benefit to us, your reason for living was gone."

Talking to her is like a flying insect being swallowed by a carnivorous plant, Shakespeare thought to himself.

If you answer the question incorrectly, you will be dissolved and chewed to death in an instant.

In terms of cruelty, Semiramis is probably the best in this Holy Grail War.

According to his observation, the Crimson Assassin was probably targeting everyone in the world, including the Master, at any time.

Although it was not murderous intent, but just a trivial malice, she would always observe everyone's words and actions. Once she judged that someone was harmful to herself, she would carry out the assassination without hesitation.

From Shakespeare's perspective, he took this side of the empress for granted.

The empress who is high above him is by no means a weak person. She is undoubtedly an absolutely strong one.

It is natural for a woman who has survived by deceiving everyone in the world to not be careless at all.

"I repeat, failure is not allowed. You must finish writing the story of Amakusa Shiro Tokisada no matter what."

After hearing this, Shakespeare smiled knowingly and asked a question he had wanted to ask for a long time.

Since the Master was not present at the moment, this was of course the perfect situation for her to speak her mind.

"Then, please allow me to ask you a question. Lady Empress, which result do you hope to achieve? Do you hope that our Master's wish will be fulfilled, or do you think it would be more fun to trample on his wish?"

Semiramis held her breath, as if she had been poked in the nick of time.

"Of course the wish has been fulfilled. After all, a Servant is there to serve the Master."

"……oops."

There is a very clear sense of dissatisfaction in Shakespeare's response.

He is undoubtedly the weakest Servant currently alive, but he never feels fear towards anyone.

The greatest playwright of all time asked again: "This is just an empty answer! Assassin, do you want to see destruction or not? Please answer honestly!"

Semiramis finally realized that this was a serious question from the Joker.

In this case, the empress must give a sincere answer.

If you give a false answer, you will become a fool who is even worse than a clown.

The empress concentrated all her nerves at an unprecedented level, peeled off countless layers of hypocrisy and finally spoke the truth.

"To be honest, the outcome of the war is fine. I am just doing what a Servant should do, that's all."

"……Um?"

That was an answer far beyond what Shakespeare had expected.

"Wait, wait, Queen! Aren't you..."

Shakespeare was speechless.

According to his observation, the Empress had already fallen in love.

Whether it was out of curiosity about [Humanity Rescue] or the feeling of being trusted...

Semiramis, as a ruler, fell in love in her own way.

But now she says that's not the case?

There was no man in the world with more profound, full, and sensitive feelings than Shakespeare.

His intuition couldn't be wrong, the Red Assassin was clearly in love!

Could it be that the Empress's love interest is not her Master as she imagined?

Did I miss any important details? That would be a huge remiss as a record-keeper!

"Then I would like to ask, Her Majesty the Empress."

Shakespeare asked in an excited and high voice: "Since you say that everything is meaningless, then what are you pursuing now?"

Caster heard a voice that was so resentful and hateful that he had never heard before.

"To dominate."

Sitting on the jade throne in the sky garden, Semiramis's golden eyes looked calmly into the distance.

Yes, to dominate.

The man who clearly said that he wanted me to stay with him, but so many days have passed and he has never contacted me once.

The man who said he would protect me, but now he is the one bearing the brunt of the attack.

Watching Rhodes holding Red Archer's slender waist and flying side by side in the sky, Semiramis's thoughts seemed to go back to the night she became a woman.

The empress's beautiful face showed no expression.

"Caster"

~~~~

Chapter 403 The way to conquer the empress is to enter her "garden"!

“Land!”

Rhodes held Atalanta in his arms and stepped onto the ground of the Hanging Garden, then placed her petite body back on the ground.

"Be careful, Ata."

"Ah."

"It's so strange, why didn't we get attacked? It's like they let us in on purpose."

Rhodes turned his head and looked towards Ye Tian's battlefield.

In the area on the left, Joan of Arc stood on top of the plane, waving a pure white holy flag, exuding a majestic and sacred aura.

The sky garden beneath Rhodes and his companions' feet was deploying its defense function, and the black coffin named Ten and One [Tiamtum Umu] was firing out-of-specification light bullets at the Saint one after another.

Each shot has the power of a meteorite falling from the sky.

The destructive power of the light bullet that cut through the sky can be said to be at military level.

However, Jeanne simply waved the holy flag to deflect the light bullets flying towards her, turning the attack from the aerial garden into meteors.

That is the flag that symbolizes the legend of Joan of Arc.
