Chapter 147 Why King Arthur Participated in the Holy Grail War(6K/10K)
In the real world, Artoria, who was in Vladivostok and communicated with Yaoguang Chaldea through a video call, was stunned when she heard Saber say that her wish for the Holy Grail was to save Britain.
He also looked confused.
Save Britain? Save what?
Does Britain need saving? Why is it different from what I know?
This so-called knowledge includes the inheritance from King Arthur. It is obvious that there is no unwillingness towards Britain in the inheritance, but only satisfaction and blessings.
Obviously, for King Arthur, although the Kingdom of Camelot he ruled had many regrets, he did not have the strong will to change.
For a moment, Artoria felt that there was something wrong with this King Arthur, and her powerful intuition also thought so.
Then, Saber's next sentence took a turn, indicating that she no longer had any desire to place her hope on the Holy Grail, which suddenly made Artoria stunned again.
What? This tone seems to be like being summoned in the Holy Grail War, suddenly knowing something, and then feeling relieved.
What happened to this King Arthur?
Full of questions, full of confusion, and these questions and confusions also belong to people all over the world, and they also belong to everyone at the king's banquet in the light screen image.
However, at this moment, the light curtain image switched lenses.
————
In the light screen image, the camera moved to the Tosaka mansion. Tokiomi Tosaka was tasting fine wine, facing the magic props used for communication, and said with an elegant smile on his face: "Really? The king's banquet, it is indeed the king."
It's something you can do. Well, Kirei, don't worry about it. Since the king is so interested, let him enjoy himself."
Kirei Kotomine, who was on the other end of the communicator, hummed after hearing this: "I understand, teacher."
Tokiomi Tosaka shook the glass of wine and said as if he could see Kotomine Kirei's expression: "Kirei, do you have any questions to ask me?"
Kotomine Kirei was silent for a moment and said: "Teacher, are we just going to let the King of Heroes become so accustomed to doing whatever he wants?"
Tokiomi Tosaka stopped shaking his wine glass immediately, and the smile on his face grew a little wider: "Oh? Kirei, do you have any ideas?"
Kotomine Kirei: "I think this is an opportunity. If you, teacher, use the Command Seal, then there should be no problem in solving Rider and Saber at the same time with the King of Heroes' Noble Phantasm."
Hearing this, Tokiomi Tosaka put down his wine glass and did not answer directly. Instead, he turned to look at the bright moon outside the window, and then said slowly with a smile: "You are right, Kirei, this can indeed solve the problem of Rider at the same time.
and Saber, and the result was 'just' the wrath of the King of Heroes, which to me is not a big deal."
Kotomine Kirei: "..."
Tokiomi Tosaka squinted, looked at the communicator, and said meaningfully: "It's very interesting, Kirei, you would actually make such a suggestion. This Holy Grail War is getting more and more interesting. So, Kirei, let's
Let’s see what happens next.”
Kotomine Kirei: "Yes, teacher."
Then, the communication was interrupted, and the camera shifted to Kotomine Church. Kirei Kotomine, who was in his room, had a frightening smile on his face.
But soon, the smile froze, and then quickly recovered, replaced by a look of confusion, as if Kotomine Kirei didn't know what he had just experienced.
The camera turned back to Tosaka Tokiomi, who closed his eyes and tasted the wine again: "However, as Kirei said, just the king's banquet is indeed a bit boring, so there is nothing wrong with having some sideshows.
Bar."

Real world, Yaoguang-Chaldea headquarters.
Matou Kariya sneered: "It seems, Tokiomi, 'you' are going to make trouble again. Sure enough, the villain is the villain, and he wants to make big news all day long."
Tokiomi Tosaka's face twitched, and he immediately defended himself: "You are wrong, Kariya, this is called a pattern. As a participant in the Holy Grail War, and with a vision that far exceeds that of other Masters, it is naturally impossible for 'I'
Do nothing."
"Rather, in order to obtain the final victory, it is natural to use some means. After all, this is not a 'duel' or a 'match', but a 'war'. In order to win the war, any means is natural.
"
Matou Kariya sneered: "So that includes sending Sakura into the insect cave?"
Tokiomi Tosaka: "...No, I think there is a reason."
Matou Kariya: "Haha, it's all Tokiomi's fault."
Tokiomi Tosaka: “……(?_?)”
You can't get over this hurdle, right?
Seeing this, other members of the Tohsaka family and Matou family nearby pretended not to recognize these two naive old men.
Originally, Tokiomi Tosaka was quite normal. The Tokiomi Tokiomi in the light screen image was of a very high standard, and he was also very unfamiliar to Tokiomi Tokiomi in the real world, so I used to go there as a bystander.
treat.
It wasn't until Matou Kariya arrived here that everything changed. Faced with the painful words "It's all Tokiomi's fault" every day since he was young, Tosaka Tokiomi had to stand on his side.
, began to speak for 'self'.
After all...
No one can be compared to someone who is both a love rival and a close friend!
So now Tokiomi Tosaka always speaks for himself, but Matou Kariya holds the big killer weapon "Tokiomi sent Sakura to the insect cave", so every verbal confrontation ends up being
It was Tosaka Tokiomi who was autistic.
This is the interaction between Tokiomi Tosaka and Kariya Matou. Both of them have strong subjective stances, so their quarrel is really a quarrel.
What other people see is completely different.
Morgan held his chin up as elegantly as ever and said: "It seems that Kotomine Kirei is really in a state of dual personality now, and the hidden second personality can already be used without the knowledge of the first personality.
Take control of your body and do something."
Wuliangta Himeko nodded: "That's true. Tokiomi Tokiomi seems to have noticed it, but for some unknown reason he didn't expose this matter. He even cooperated with the other party in acting. Should he be called the boss?"

Tianwang International High School High School, Su Yun's personal activity room.
Tokisaki Kuangsan pondered for a moment and asked: "Su-kun, what do you think?"
Su Yun: "I'm sitting and watching, do you want me to stand and watch?"
"..." Tokisaki Kurumi looked at Su Yun speechlessly, but she was already used to the latter's attitude of pretending to be stupid. She didn't take it seriously and immediately said to herself, "It seems that Tosaka
Omi already knows that something is wrong with Kotomine Kirei's state, but he doesn't care, and judging from the strength he has shown before, a boss who can control his followers really doesn't need to care about a disciple with a brain problem."
"In addition, this boss obviously wants to do something at the King's Banquet, but I don't know what he is going to do. Does he really intend to use the life curse? But judging from what he said, doing so will make the King of Heroes angry.
Even fell out with him."
"Furthermore, although it may be very subjective, I always feel that if I really do that, it would be completely inconsistent with Tosaka Tokiomi's character. This mysterious and powerful boss should not use that method to win.
people."
"Do you think my analysis is correct? Su Jun?"
When Su Yun heard this, he kept his smile unchanged: "You are right."
After giving Su Yun a meaningful look, Tokisaki turned his gaze back to the light screen image, waiting for the subsequent development.
————
In the light screen image, the camera shifted to the scene of the king's banquet again, and a new exchange began about King Arthur's speech about the Holy Grail.
The King of Conqueror looked surprised and said: "King of Knights, did I hear you correctly? You said that you wanted to save Britain at first, and then gave up on your wish? What does this mean?"
"Speaking of which, does Britain need you to save it? Why are people confused by what you said?"
Saber continued to stare at the wine glass and said with a look of reminiscence: "It's not something that can't be said. You can laugh if you think it's funny - my desire to participate in the Holy Grail War at the beginning was to travel through time and space and go back to the past to save people from destruction.
of Britain.”
King of Conqueror: "???"
other people:"???"
real world:"???"
What? Going towards the destruction of Britain? And going back through time and space? Where is this going? Why can’t I understand it at all?
However, the King of Heroes in the light screen image seemed to have noticed something after being stunned for a moment. A pleasant smile appeared on his face, and the way he looked at Saber gradually became more aggressive.
Saber seemed to feel it. She glanced at the King of Heroes, but did not express her stance.
The King of Conquerors put down his wine glass and asked with a serious face: "So, Saber, although I don't know why you said that Britain is going to be destroyed, I can understand your words to mean that you want to use the Holy Grail to travel through time and space and go back to the past, and then change you
And the history your subjects made?”
Saber nodded: "Yes, that's exactly it."
The Conqueror King was silent for a moment, and the smile completely disappeared from his face: "I can't understand why you would have such an idea?"
Saber: "It's very simple. Because of the constant natural and man-made disasters in my era, the Kingdom of Camelot was on the verge of destruction many times. Before I participated in the Holy Grail War, the country had already reached the edge of the cliff, and was only one step away from complete destruction.
So, in desperation, I placed my last hope on the Holy Grail."
These words made people even more surprised, and people in the real world were also completely confused by these words.
King of Conqueror: "Before participating in the Holy Grail War? What do you mean? Didn't you participate in the Holy Grail War as a heroic spirit?"
Saber hummed: "That's right, I didn't respond to the Holy Grail War when I became a heroic spirit after death, but I responded to the call of the Holy Grail War as a living person."
!!!
The amount of information was so huge that the scene immediately went silent, and people in the real world were also shocked.
Saber seemed to feel that the amount of information was not large enough, and continued: "After the Battle of the Sword Fence, I was in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and when my heart was filled with despair and pain, I met the Archbishop of Destiny, and then I agreed to participate in the Holy Grail War as a condition
, signed a contract with Him.”
"After that, my will was called by the Holy Grail, and when I responded, I came to this era as a servant."
