[Fate][Gun Bow] Red and Blue Holy Grail War

Chapter 23

The author has something to say: ◆This chapter is suspected of having a banquet for the Three Kings.The original dialogue has been rewritten.

This must be the most neat gathering of the remaining participants, semi-exiters, and related personnel of the Holy Grail War after the battle on Warehouse Street.

On the grass by the shore of the lake, two rows of long tables are neatly arranged diagonally, and food and salads, cold drinks, and plates and cutlery replaced by insulators are also neatly placed on the table.

In addition, there are stone, wooden and rattan dining table and chair sets distributed around the dining area.

Leaving aside the group of Avengers now, including the representative of the church, Kotomine Lizheng, who is the supervisor of this Holy Grail War, is here.Looking around, there is a group of small groups around a table on the shore of the lake, and each group has a stack of A4 papers that have not been printed out in their hands.

"I won't say much, see for yourself, everything that should be announced is in this report; don't ask me for evidence, the facts are here, it's your freedom to believe it or not. Just like some people present, if you don't You wouldn’t even take a step into this inherent barrier if there was such a sudden commotion in Tibetan Mountain, would you? Your willingness to step in already shows your choice.”

When Emiya said that, she was also holding an identical report in her hand──it was from the Rider team.

"So let's have dinner first. You have to eat enough for the meeting." At this point, the sharp momentum when he made his opening remarks softened in an instant.

"In addition, if someone lacks magic power, tonight's main ingredient, octopus, contains rich magic power. Seafood dishes are all good choices; there are also okonomiyaki and takoyaki for those who like Japanese style. By the way, remind everyone, if the pot of mapo tofu is not Extremely spicy, don’t try it, it’s for people with special tastes.”

As a chef, you should consider the tastes of each guest, and it would be wrong to mix personal likes and dislikes.Even if he didn't like one of them at all, he even thought about stabbing him to death before leaving to avoid harm ten years later.

Kotomine Kirei, who acts as the little boss of the Fifth Holy Grail War in most world lines, does not have mind reading skills, and of course does not know that there is a heroic spirit who has considered whether to let him die—even if he knew, most likely this person would not be too serious Big emotional ups and downs.A natural personality defect causes him to be touched by emotions that are quite different from ordinary people.

For example, there is no need to remind Emiya of the pot of mapo tofu, and no one will move it; the table closest to mapo tofu has a pungent smell and is very pungent, and no one will take the initiative to sit there except Kotomine Kirei .Naturally, there would be no one like him who could squint his eyes slightly and draw the corners of his lips slightly while sitting in that environment, showing a happy expression that even I couldn't recognize.

The smell that can stimulate the taste buds in the nasal cavity is probably the thing that can bring him the most emotional ups and downs besides the "appreciation of ugliness" that Kirei is still unwilling to admit.

In view of this, everyone kept a distance from Ma Po and the priest after the meeting.Especially when some people don't believe in evil, see that Kirei only eats mapo tofu without rice, and thinks it's just the smell that's scary, and they try it and get caught.

"Cho...choke me to death! Is it really a human being who can eat this kind of thing?" Weber, who was full of water, yelled with physiological tears, his fair skin turned red.

But no one blamed him for being rude.Including Kirei who didn't stop eating at all, and Kotomine Risei who knew his son's taste and learned it a long time ago.

After all...it's really too heavy...

Seeing that Cu Chulainn's face turned pale, he whispered to Emiya, "You actually asked me to try that kind of thing? Fortunately, I'm smart!"

"It's just the instinct of the beast. I just thought you would know his taste better."

"Gympika will understand better──"

"But not staring at the bowl and considering whether to take a sip."

"..."

Staring at the bowl and thinking about whether there is a hidden trick, the bulldog retreats.Settling one, Emiya then heard the King of Knights hovering in front of the takoyaki asking: "...I—have we all seen this ingredient? When it was still raw..."

"Ah, you should ask Ruler."

"Ask me something... oh! That's sea monster takoyaki. I tried it and it was fine. It's so chewy!"

Probably the attitude of the person who made the guarantee was too natural, Saber suddenly felt that she hesitated for a long time because she recognized the true face of this thing, it was a bit silly to be so cautious.

Ruler didn't even die and returned to the Heroic Soul Seat, what was she afraid of?

"That's right, eat it! As a king, how can you not even have the courage to conquer sea monsters? I would rather miss this kind of delicacy that can replenish magic power and satisfy the appetite of the appetite. It would be in vain to be called a king."

Iskandar's voice sounded from behind.

Maybe they are also kings and opened up an era!It was obviously a very simple word, but it had a different meaning in Artoria's ears. She immediately turned half of her body, faced the king, and asked seriously: "I can think that this is your identity as a king. Initiate me a contest of kingship, Rider."

"Oh. If you are interested, I have no problem—how about Archer joining? This is a rare event!" The Conqueror King tilted his head and looked at the other king who was sitting with him.

It was because of this shiny golden guy that Weber was sitting awkwardly, so he wandered around the dining area for nothing, and was finally choked up by Hell Mapo Tofu with tears and snot all over his face.

Of course Gilgamesh would not have the self-consciousness that he has caused trouble to others, he just poured his own water, even the food on the plate in front of him--"Sir, why don't you bring it to me?" Yes, it was Emiya Got it for him.Otherwise, the lock of the sky might tie Cu Chulainn to the end of the meeting, and it might not release him.

The Conqueror King also shared the King's Wine that the King of Heroes was proud of in the golden jug.Obviously, compared to the soft and hard drinks in the dining area, the wine of the king is more suitable for the tastes of the two kings.

The King of Gold glanced from the King of Conquerors to the King of Knights. "The king is looking forward to it." His smile was meaningful, and the look in his eyes made Artoria frown.

Very bad feeling.She didn't even want to come near without the invitation of the King of Conquerors.

There was a large plate full of seafood dishes, and Artoria carried the plate to that table; upon seeing this, Weber felt that he had finally found a justifiable excuse to leave this table, so he immediately joined the Go to Kenneth's table.

Archer took out another golden cup, Rider poured the wine, and Saber drank it down.

The noble knight king just sat down and took the initiative to continue the topic: "Rider, you didn't finish what you just said. Tell me, what kind of existence should a king be?"

"My king..." I can't just talk casually this time, the king of conquest also straightened his expression, and stated the principles he followed: "The so-called king should be more greedy than anyone else, bolder than anyone else, and easier than anyone else." Both anger and turbidity, the pursuit of the ultimate in life! Only in this way can the subjects be yearned for, eager to follow, and even have the ambition to surpass the king!"

"──This is just for the satisfaction of self-desires. Conquering the king is not the right way! The so-called king should pursue the right rule, the right way to govern the world, and follow it to the end. Self-sacrifice is the right thing to do!" Just like a martyr, his whole life is an ideal The dedicated king immediately refuted it.

This is a conflict between the concepts of protection and aggression, and the two are destined to be unable to blend.

The observers can easily figure it out from the standpoint of the third person.Like Emiya, she understood it from the beginning, and even lamented leisurely. It seems that as long as the three kings get together, debates about kingship will always be inevitable; Saber is confused by Rider's words, and her momentum will be overwhelmed.

Because "If you blindly save and don't guide, you don't know what the end of your subjects will be." That kind of words really exposed the scars in the heart of the King of Knights bloodily.

In the Fourth Holy Grail War, which Gilgamesh had been tired of for a long time, there was only such a scene that seemed to be never boring no matter how many times he witnessed it.He can always taste different pleasures from it.

"Kiritsugu, Saber she..."

"Never mind."

The man who stuffed his mouth with food, stared at the report, and more than half of his mind was on the report.It's just that his wife was too worried, so he thought for a while, and added another sentence: "Whether it is correct or not, if she is so easily knocked down by other people's ideas, she will not be able to achieve the great cause of the Knight King."

Besides, compared to the victory or defeat of the King of Knights in the debate, Kiritsugu is now more worried about the Great Holy Grail placed on Mount Enzo.

Avenger's crude cracking and purification method, his obsession to make a wish for a Joan of Arc, and his unknown conspiracy with Matou Zouken are all factors that make Emiya Kiritsugu feel uneasy.

The Servant who did not hesitate to cross the world line and participated in two Holy Grail Wars in a row, one of which was the winner who already held a subspecies Holy Grail, to apply the description in the report, has gone crazy!

At least Emiya Kiritsugu didn't want to know at all, Avenger wanted to welcome Joan of Arc with all his heart, how would he do it?Which one to welcome?Also—you are so arrogant as a sprite, and after the Holy Grail War has been fought one after another, does your body know it?

In short, Avenger's insistence is too dangerous!

The other magicians, as well as the supervisors sent by the Holy Church, had the same thoughts as Kiritsugu at this time.

If it weren't for the fact that Emiya's food was really delicious, they would have already become mechanical eaters by now, and they couldn't even taste what they put in their mouths.

"That's why Ruler's master and servant will work hard to avoid the Servant's death? That's right, if the Great Holy Grail is already occupied by such heretics, preventing the Holy Grail from descending is the best way to check and balance at present." Tosaka Tokiomi was thinking, with a solemn expression.

After reading the report, the Ruler team specifically left Berserker to him and Kariya, who were two and a half out of the game, and did not ask him to use the final command spell to get Archer out. These behaviors have the most reasonable explanation.It has to be said that this made Tokiomi feel a lot better, at least he didn't lose to Servant by NTR.

The land manager of Fuyuki City started the conversation, and Tokiomi's staunch ally Kotomine Risho immediately took up the topic: "The church monitors the location of the Great Holy Grail, and it still shows that everything is normal. If this is also Avenger's method, his preparations are really serious." Too much. If necessary, the church can announce the suspension of the Holy Grail War to cooperate.”

Of course, everyone knows this is good.There's an Avenger making waves, who knows what the Holy Grail system will look like when he's dealt with?

"Don't forget Matou Zouyan. Matou is also one of the founding three families." The magician killer reminded in a cold voice.

Now that everyone is [-]% full, it is indeed a good time for a meeting.

Although the "meeting room" where small groups sit at separate tables looks a bit nondescript.There is also the background sound of the Three Kings Discussing the Way of the King, and the joyful laughter of the King of Heroes being imprisoned by ideals by the King of Knights──

"It's really not progressing, Saber... why don't you stick to your ideals until the end, and let me appreciate how broken you are."

"It's time to wake up from the dream, little girl. Otherwise, one day, you will lose even the lowest pride of being a hero..."

The Tao chosen by the Knight King was once again denied by the Double Kings.The three kings... No, it may be said that the King of Conquerors' unilateral discourse on the king's way to the King of Knights was also unilaterally declared to end.

Wei Bo was silent, and was kicked back to Rider's table by his professor, and then whispered: "Let's encircle Avenger together?"

It would be nice if someone could hold the attention of the entire Avenger group.

To arrange the spell, you must first sneak in.

Emiya looked around to confirm that everyone had eaten enough, kicked Cu Chulainn, who was still eating grilled octopus silk, and motioned to suck it in quickly, and then stood up.

Now that everyone has the bottom line in their hearts, the next step—it depends on how much external force he can turn into a boost.
