"Saber, do you like the sea too?"

Saber, who looked like a handsome man in a suit, smiled bitterly but still answered the question: "Like it or not, it's hard to say, but in my time, the other side of the sea was the enemy."

“Ah, sorry.” Irisviel’s expression also became heavy, and she took the initiative to apologize to Saber: “We are both girls, but as King Arthur, you can’t possibly have time to date a knight or something…”

"Yeah, that's right."

Saber didn't care. She had long since given up her identity as a woman. All she cared about was the honor of being a knight and her own country.

“Irisviel, you actually want to go shopping with Kiritsugu more than with me, right?”

"No, Kiritsugu will be in pain if he goes shopping with me."

Irisviel smiled bitterly and shook her head.

"how come?"

Saber was a little confused: "Does Kiritsugu feel unhappy with the time he spends with you?"

"Kiritsugu, he's the kind of person who blames himself for living a happy life."

Irisviel explained to Saber: "When he was shopping with me, he must have been as happy as I was. But after that, he would definitely hate himself, hate himself for chasing after happiness."

Saber understood a little: "Kiritsugu... feels that he doesn't deserve happiness... right?"

"Maybe. He always wanted to live purely for his ideals, but he couldn't do it, so he could only punish himself with pain." Thinking of Kiritsugu, Alice Field's eyes were filled with tenderness.

Saber was about to say something to comfort her, but suddenly rushed forward and grabbed Irisviel's arm. Irisviel, who was attacked by surprise, assessed the situation very calmly.

"Is it an enemy Servant?"

Saber nodded solemnly.

"Then entertain him well."

Irisviel gave Saber a bold smile.

"As you wish."

Main Text: Chapter 73 Chapter 71 The First Battle

Fuyuki Harbor.

Warehouses and containers are lined up side by side, separating the new capital from the industrial areas further east.

At night, there was not even a single person passing by, and the dim lights shining on the streets made the scene seem even more empty.

Because there was no one there and the terrain was complicated, it was chosen as the battlefield by Lancer's Master.

After he arrived in Fuyuki City, he stayed in the most luxurious hotel, on the top floor, and built a magic workshop.

The head of the El-Melloi faction borrowed a large sum of money in order to participate in the Holy Grail War and achieve the final victory.

But in order to show his own personality, he did not build the magic workshop in a safe place, but insisted on building it on the top floor of a luxury hotel. As a result, it was blown up by Kiritsugu Emiya, the "magician killer".

An entire building collapsed, the magic workshop built on the upper floors was finished, and all the various magic props that Director Ken had bought with foreign loans were also destroyed.

From a luxurious nouveau riche to a penniless pauper, his fiancée also fell in love with the Servant he summoned, and in the end he was killed by Kiritsugu Emiya... Director Ken's life is simply a tragedy.

The Servant he summoned was Lancer, the chief warrior of the Irish Fianna Knights, who was hailed as "unparalleled in the world" - "Diarmuid Odinah of the Glorious Form!"

The skilled spearmen are devoted to their lord and do not care about the ownership of the Holy Grail. They only want to be loyal to their monarch.

His blindly loyal thinking is also due to his experiences in his lifetime.

But because Lancer is always lucky E, he seems to be cursed, and Lancer never dies a good death in every Holy Grail War.

So in the end Lancer died a miserable death, and perhaps Director Ken was also implicated by Lancer.

If Director Ken hadn't summoned Lancer, perhaps he would have had a better ending, but since he summoned Lancer, he was doomed to tragedy.

At this moment in the warehouse street, Lancer was holding two brushes, quietly waiting for the servants to be attracted by him.

He spent the entire day today wandering around the streets to attract the attention of other servants.

When night fell, he came to the Warehouse Street, the battlefield he had chosen long ago, ready to fight a fierce battle with the servants he had attracted.

His Master was also in the warehouse street, hiding in a secluded place to avoid being attacked by other Servants or Masters.

Especially the "Magician Killer". Although I don't know much about him, I have heard of his bad reputation - he likes to use non-magical methods to carry out assassinations and is regarded as a heretic among magicians.

Director Ken is not afraid of Emiya Kiritsugu, but he is also worried about being assassinated by him. In addition, the Servants are so powerful that if he is exposed to them, he will probably die.

So he hid.

This is not worrying, nor is it following your heart, but a smart choice.

Lancer stood in an open space, his tight leather armor outlining the curves of his muscular body, his long hair gathered behind his head, and he held two guns, one long and one short, in his hands. However, at this moment, both guns were wrapped in rune cloth similar to a spell, and did not emit any breath.

"Finally someone is here. I've been waiting for a long time, and finally you are here."

Saber is also a skilled and courageous person. As the Lord of Britain and the Knight King of England, she is not afraid of any challenge, even if this challenge requires risking her life.

After sensing Lancer's magic power at the beach, Saber knew that this was a provocation from the enemy.

As a fighter, she would appear to be too timid if she did not respond.

So Saber brought Irisviel here.

The two of them were also young and inexperienced. No one else stepped forward, so they were just waiting for someone to take the lead, and then Saber took the initiative to come to them.

No experience.

Irisviel is only a 9-year-old child. She usually lives in the Einzbern Castle and has few channels to contact the outside world. After encountering such an emergency, she doesn't know what to do.

She completely relied on Saber to make decisions.

As the Knight King, Saber is not allowed to retreat or refuse a challenge.

Therefore, even though she knew there might be a conspiracy or a trap, she would still take the initiative to fight it.

Saber only thought about fighting, but Irisviel thought too much. Although she did not have enough experience, she knew to tell her husband - before coming to the warehouse district, she used the communicator left by Emiya Kiritsugu to pass on the specific situation.

After receiving the message from Irisviel, Kiritsugu Emiya acted decisively and rushed to the warehouse street with his extremely beautiful female assistant, occupied the commanding heights, and planned to use a sniper rifle to kill the master who appeared.

As long as the Master is dead, the Servant has nothing to fear.

"Such a fierce fighting spirit, you are Saber, right?"

Lancer recognized Saber's identity. Although Saber was wearing a suit, not armor, and not holding a sword, Lancer still recognized her.

Men's intuition can sometimes be terrifyingly accurate.

"Correct."

Saber did not think of hiding it, because there was no need. As long as she was ready to fight, the armor and weapons would be revealed.

By then, he will know that he is Saber. It would be better for him to be generous and admit it directly.

"You're holding two guns, could it be a Lancer?"

Although I thought that they were two guns, one short and one long, and I was playing a dual-gun style, I still wanted to confirm it.

What if it's another job, such as Rider?

"That's right. Now that we have finished introducing ourselves, let's begin the battle! This is not only a fight for our own honor, but also a battle for the final victory for the Master!"

Lancer finished his righteous words and assumed a fighting stance, his twin guns like butterfly wings spreading out to take flight.

War is imminent!

"Indeed, that is what I meant."

Saber nodded, and then her magic power surged, sweeping past like a strong wind, and a dazzling white light bloomed at this moment.

One second ago, Saber was still wearing a black suit, and the next second, the white light disappeared. The black suit did not explode, but was covered by silver armor.

This is armor transformed from magic power.

At the same time, an invisible greatsword appeared in Saber's hand—the Sword of Promised Victory!

The battle has not yet begun. The two sides are just competing in momentum and confronting each other. Neither side has been overwhelmed!

Seeing the increasingly tense atmosphere between the two servants, Irisviel couldn't help but swallow her saliva and even took two steps back.

She knew that she had no role to play in this battle.

As an ordinary android, even if his strength is comparable to that of an ordinary magician, he cannot interfere in the battles between Servants.

For example, in the future Fifth Holy Grail War, Sera and Lijelite, who were babysitters for Illya, were easily killed by Gumpika.

Irisviel, who now has self-awareness, looked at Saber with a serious expression and said, “Saber, you have to be careful. Although I know a little bit of healing magic, that’s all. I can’t interfere with your fight…”

"It's okay! Ellie, I'll take care of Lancer!"

Saber had no intention of blaming Irisviel, but instead reminded her, "The opponent's Master's whereabouts are unknown, Irisviel, you have to be careful."

"Also, you have my back!"

Saber still trusts Irisviel very much. She trusts Irisviel with her back. This is her trust in her.

Of course, there was also a reason why Saber thought she could get rid of Lancer.

"Go! Saber! Bring me victory!"

Irisviel was also moved by Saber’s words. She nodded and waved her right hand to issue her own orders.

Although Irisviel is not Saber's Master, she is the Master's wife, and compared to the Master, who is full of dark tricks, Saber likes Irisviel more.

If it was a male version of King Arthur, Kiritsugu Emiya would be worried about whether his head would glow green.

After Irisviel's command, the war officially began. The two servants confronted each other fiercely, and swords and spears collided with loud explosions.

The clash of magic powers caused a huge explosion. The air around was squeezed apart by the madly surging magic power, sweeping across the empty harbor, plowing deep grooves on the concrete ground, and cutting off the street lights on the side. If it continued, the battle between the two would destroy the street where the open space was located.

"Saber, come on, defeat this Lancer!"

Irisviel stood behind Saber, watching the fight between Lancer and Saber from a close distance.

The battle between the two servants was too fast for Irisviel to catch it, and she only saw a series of phantoms.

She couldn't help in any way and could only cheer Saber on silently.

At the same time, not far from the warehouse street, Shiraishi and Tamamonomae also came to watch the battle.

In view of the great battle on the first night of the Holy Grail War, Shiraishi was ready to intervene.

He had made Tamamonomae change into ordinary people's clothes and no longer wear the garb of a heroic spirit. Now Tamamonomae was dressed like an ordinary woman, but... Tamamonomae was very dissatisfied and always clamored to change back into her original clothes.

Bai Shi finally persuaded her to be patient, at least until tonight was over.

For Shiraishi's sake, Tamamonomae decided to be patient.

In order to disguise himself as a servant, Shiraishi also made great sacrifices. He wore full body armor, covering himself from head to toe, so that no one could tell who he was.

This is not about hiding one's identity.

It's just Bai Shi's special idea.

He is now disguised as Caster among the servants. He dresses like this just to express that a mage who can't fight in close combat is not a good mage.

So, he is now dressed as a good wizard.

The mage will engage in close combat soon, shocking the eyes of the servants and masters who are watching.

Main text: Chapter 74 Chapter 72 Intrusion on the battlefield

"Master, are you sure no one will recognize us after we switched our identities?"

In order to dress up as an ordinary person, Tamamonomae made great sacrifices. She even temporarily hid her three favorite tails. She changed into a sky blue dress, which made her look elegant and graceful. With her delicate and lovely face, anyone who saw her would say she was beautiful.

However, Tamamonomae was not used to it. She preferred her original clothes to the long skirts of ordinary people... At least they were comfortable to wear, and she didn't have to hide her three tails.

But now, for the sake of her master's plan, she had to sacrifice herself temporarily. Anyway, the master said he would make it up to her. After tonight, maybe her beautiful wish of being a good wife would come true immediately.

"Don't worry, Tamamo. I'm dressed like this, so it's impossible for anyone to recognize me. Even if they think something is wrong with me, they will only suspect my position, not that I'm not a Servant."

Shiraishi was full of confidence. He just glanced at Tamamonomae, and then turned all his attention to Saber and Lancer who were fighting.

The first official battle is worth watching carefully.

Although in the eyes of Bai Shi, who had a big backer, it was nothing more than that, and it was just the initial test, which did not lead to any result.
