"However, I have always longed for you to judge me personally. If you had executed me out of anger, perhaps I would not have gone down this mad path in my desire for atonement. Fortunately, my wish has been fulfilled."

“King Arthur! Abandon this wish! You have already given up your entire life for us. Rather than changing the fate of Great Britain, we hope that you can find happiness.”

"But one thing I can say with certainty: King Arthur, you are the greatest king."

"Everyone under your command believes in this."

"So, just be yourself." (Little)

Chapter 197 I Accept Your Challenge

After saying that, Lancelot's figure turned into specks of light and slowly disappeared.

Saber was already crying her eyes out.

Lancelot was the first knight of the Round Table. He had an affair with his queen, Guinevere. She didn't blame him, because she had only married the queen to prevent her true gender from being exposed. She felt sorry for Guinevere.

But as a queen, she could only act according to the king's code of conduct.

Neither Rider nor Webber spoke.

Weber was very clear about this history.

"Hey, King of Knights, you just said you wanted to change fate. Did you mean you wanted to overturn history?"

Rider asked.

Saber wiped away her tears: "That's right! If the Holy Grail is omnipotent, then even a wish that a miracle cannot fulfill can certainly be granted, like '270'."

Rider: "Saber, let me confirm, that country called Britain, it was destroyed in your time, right? It was destroyed under your rule, right?"

Saber nodded seriously and said, "Yes! That's why I can't forgive myself, that's why I regret it, and that's why I want to change that ending, because it was my responsibility."

"Saber, are you trying to deny the fact that you wrote your own story in the history books?"

“That’s right! The homeland that bestowed upon me the sword and for which I have dedicated my life has been destroyed. As a king, I should step forward to ensure the prosperity of the nation I rule…”

Rider denied it, saying, "No, you're wrong. It's not the king who sacrifices himself, but the country and the people who sacrifice themselves for the king. You're saying the opposite."

"What did you say? Wouldn't that just be the rule of a tyrant?"

“That’s right! We become heroes precisely because we are tyrants, but Saber, if a king regrets his rule and the end of his kingdom, then he is just a foolish ruler, not even as good as a tyrant.”

Saber retorted defiantly, "Iskandar, didn't you also lose your lineage and have your empire eventually split into three? Don't you have any regrets about that outcome?!"

"No, if it were my decision, and my followers fought their whole lives only to be destroyed, I would mourn and weep, but I would never regret it."

"how come……"

"Not to mention overthrowing it; such a foolish act is an insult to everyone who built this era with me!"

Saber continued to argue, "Only soldiers take honor in destruction. How can we not protect the weak? Correct leadership and proper governance are the true intentions of a king!"

Rider said calmly, "So, are you the 'correct' slave?"

Saber nodded: "That's good. A king should sacrifice for his ideals."

Rider looked at Saber with pity and said, "This is not how a person should live."

"If you want to become a king and rule the country, you can't expect to be like an ordinary person. You can never understand this. Someone like you who only wants to become a hegemon to satisfy endless desires will never understand this."

The King of Conquerors, unusually enraged, roared at Saber, "A king without desire is not even worth a vase!"

“Saber, you say you would sacrifice yourself for your ideals. You must have been a pure and upright saint, with an inviolable and noble air. But who would yearn for or dream of such a thorny and arduous path as martyrdom?”

"A true king is one who is more greedy than anyone else, laughs the loudest, and is the most furious than anyone else."

"Both the pure and the impure should reach the pinnacle of humanity. It is precisely for this reason that subjects admire the king and are fascinated by him. The burning desire to be the king is ignited in everyone's heart."

"Your Majesty, as the embodiment of chivalry, the justice and ideals you upheld may have saved the nation and its people, but..."

"You must know what happens to those who are merely saved in the end, right?"

Rider glanced at the spot where Lancelot had disappeared as he spoke.

"You have been saving your subjects without providing guidance, never demonstrating the king's desires, ignoring the bewildered subjects, and simply maintaining your aloof attitude, indulging in seemingly beautiful ideals..."

"Therefore, you are not a true king, but just a little girl bound by an idol called 'King' who exists only for others."

"What did you say?!"

Saber's expression changed drastically, her face turning deathly pale. Rider's words had a tremendous impact on Saber.

"That knight named Lancelot, at the end of his life, said you were the greatest king, but he didn't say you were the best king."

"So, little girl! Put down the burden on your shoulders, give up that wish, and be yourself again!"

Rider glanced at Saber with a hint of pity.

Then the inherent barrier was dispelled.

The group reappeared in their original world.

Lu Li noticed Saber's pale face and frowned, asking, "What's wrong?"

Saber shook her head, indicating that she was fine.

Rider looked at Lu Li and said, "Saber's Master! It was I who decided to participate in the siege of Saber, it has nothing to do with this kid, could you please let him go?"

"Rider?!" Webber was immediately anxious upon hearing this.

Lu Li nodded: "It's nothing."

He hadn't originally planned to pursue the matter with the other party.

Hearing Lu Li say that, Rider was relieved: "Thanks."

Ride3.8r looked at Waver and said, "Kid, this is the final order from the King of Conquerors. You must live well."

Clang!

Rider drew his sword and summoned a warhorse to ride.

"Actually, I've wanted to do this for a long time, but I was still a little hesitant. Now I have nothing left to lose."

"Saber's Master, I, the Conqueror King Iskandar, challenge you!!"

"I, Lu Li, accept your challenge."

"Ora la la la la!!!"

The Conqueror King roared and charged toward Lu Li, but Lu Li stood still, simply raising his right hand to block the charging Conqueror King.

"Crush!"

Chapter 198 The Holy Grail Descends

A white, grid-like object flew out of Lu Li's hand.

The Conqueror King stood frozen in place.

The Conqueror King gave a bitter smile: "Is this the difference? Why are there such heaven-defying beings in the world? It's so unfair!"

The Conqueror King's body transformed into purple specks of light and slowly dissipated.

Waver's eyes were filled with tears. Although he had not known the King of Conquerors for long, he already considered himself the King of Conquerors' subject. Watching his king being killed before his eyes, he was completely powerless.

Bang!

Irisviel fell to the ground.

"lady!"

Hisayu Maiya became anxious when she saw Irisviel fall.

At this moment, Irisviel's body began to burn, forcing Hisayu Maiya back.

Irisviel's body slowly disappeared, replaced by a small golden Holy Grail.

"The Holy Grail!!!"

Almost everyone who saw the Holy Grail had their eyes filled with longing and greed.

At the same time, a message appeared in everyone's minds: as long as they seize the Holy Grail and make a wish upon it, they can have any wish granted.

"The Holy Grail is mine!"

Kenneth made the first move, controlling the mercury-like substance around him to swirl towards the Holy Grail.

Hisayu Maiya immediately pulled out her gun and fired at Kenneth.

Ding ding ding! !

All the bullets fired were stopped by mercury.

"Holy Grail! Grant my wish..."

Bang————!

call out----!

A sniper shot pierced through the mercury and went straight through Kenneth's body.

It was Kiritsugu Emiya. He had been observing from a distance, looking for the right moment to attack. When he saw Kenneth obtain the Holy Grail and want to make a wish, he immediately made his move.

"Ughhhhhh!!"

Kenneth screamed in agony as the mercury surrounding his body splattered onto the ground.

"Maimi, take the Holy Grail with you!"

The voice of Kiritsugu Emiya came through the headphones.

Hisayu Maiya immediately picked up the Holy Grail and prepared to leave.

puff!

Hisayuu Maiya's body was pierced; it was Kirei Kotomine who ambushed and killed her.

"Well done, Kirei!"

Yuanban Shichen's eyes lit up when he saw this scene.

"Maimi!!"

Kiritsugu Emiya roared, then raised his gun and fired at Kirei Kotomine.

Kirei Kotomine swung his sword, deflecting all the bullets fired by Kiritsugu Emiya.

"Kirei! Give me the Holy Grail right now!!"

Tokichi shouted at Kirei Kotomine.

Kirei Kotomine remained unmoved.

"Qili?"

Tokimatsu's expression changed slightly. Although he had seen Kirei Kotomine's sneak attack on him through Lu Li's account, he felt that the future was not fixed and that it was just one possibility. Kirei Kotomine might not necessarily betray him.

But seeing Kirei Kotomine hesitate now made him somewhat suspicious.

"Is this the Holy Grail? The Holy Grail that can grant any wish?"

"Gilgamesh, go and take the Holy Grail."

"Hmph! Shichen, do you still want to order me around?"

Gilgamesh remembered what Tokiomi had said before: that the other party planned to use Command Seals to make him wish to revive Saber. How dare such a lowly being scheme against him.

If it weren't for the fact that Servants cannot kill their Masters, otherwise they would lose their anchor in this world, which would be tantamount to killing themselves, he would have killed Tokiomichi long ago.

Seeing that Jin Shanshan was disobeying his orders, Yuanban Shichen's face turned ugly.

In the past, he would have considered Gilgamesh's feelings, since Gilgamesh was capable of acting independently.

But now that the Holy Grail is right in front of him, he can't care about anything else.

Tokichi raised his hand and said, "By Command Spell, Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes, bring me the Holy Grail immediately!"

Gilgamesh's face immediately contorted into a ferocious expression: "Tokichi!!! You damned bastard! How dare you use a Command Spell to command me again?!"

Gilgamesh was furious, but his body was still under the control of the Command Seals, and he walked towards the Holy Grail, despite his best efforts to resist.

suddenly!
