Chapter 110 Poor Altria, cheer up!
The unclear situation made Saber and Irisviel, who were already under high pressure from the war, look very unhappy.
Especially Iskandar and Weber's Riddler behavior.
Can the Riddler just die? (Shout!)
Of course, Mrs. Irisviel and the Knight King Altria both have good upbringing and moral character.
The two beautiful ladies did not shout loudly to vent their dissatisfaction.
But the distressed looks on the faces of the two beautiful ladies really make people reflect on the sins in their hearts.
at least,
As Kenshin Matou strolled into the castle, he looked at Mrs. Irisviel and Altria who looked troubled, and reflected on himself.
"This is all Emiya Kiritsugu's fault!"
It was very easy to find excuses for my mistakes.
Matou Kenshin greeted:
"Good evening both beautiful ladies, good evening Mrs. Irisviel, good evening Altria."
Looking at the two beautiful and different ladies, Kenshin Matou, who was confident of victory, was in a good mood.
"correct."
He deliberately lengthened his voice:
"And you two, I almost forgot about you two. That would be terrible. If you're not careful, you might be killed by a sniper rifle."
Although he patted his chest with his hands, there was no fear on Jianchen Matou's face.
"Good evening, 'Companion of Justice' Mr. Emiya Kiritsugu, and his assistant Ms. Maiya."
As he said this, he even pretended to bow.
The human mentality is amazing. It can be the most important force, driving people to survive even in an "impossible survival environment" and can also make people die even if they have a rich material life.
It's like the string of a bow and arrow. If it's too tight, it will break; if it's too loose, it will lose strength.
Pulling and tugging, tension and relaxation, is the right way.
The old bug Matou Zouken and the pervert Emiya Kiritsugu made Matou Kenshin feel nervous for a long time.
During that time, his heart seemed to be grasped tightly, and even breathing was difficult.
At this moment, in this situation, when the situation changed, he naturally couldn't control his emotions.
He behaved immaturely, like a child.
The two kings, Saber and Iskandar, did not mean to look down on them.
after all,
Jianchen Matou is indeed an eight-year-old child now.
"Master of caster."
Saber felt that everything was going wrong for her. First, the mad light warrior shouted "Joan of Arc" and "Joan of Arc" at her, and then she fell into madness and fell into the path of evil.
Now the Master of Caster is also saying some incomprehensible things.
She was a little confused about the situation, but it didn't affect her mood.
No matter what, we are still in the Holy Grail War. Caster's Master, Caster, Iskandar and his Master are all enemies!
There is no doubt about this.
"Ah..." Iskandar scratched his head, "Master Caster, didn't you tell Saber about the cocktail party tonight?"
Although they were equal kings, Iskandar had no intention of looking down on Saber.
But Saber had been frozen in the body of a fifteen-year-old since she pulled out the sword from the stone, so Iskandar still felt that she was a little girl.
This name is obviously disrespectful to King Arthur.
But Saber has no time to worry about this now, he is digesting the information from Iskandar.
"A cocktail party?"
It feels bad to always be led by others, but there is no other way.
at the moment,
It was obvious that the caster's master had some agreement with Iskandar.
Saber has seen Iskandar's power. Although she is not afraid, she cannot say that she will definitely win, not to mention that Iskandar is now united with Caster.
Her Master's despicable behavior, coupled with the current situation, made Saber increasingly upset.
"Yes."
Matou Kenshin answered Iskandar's question:
"My original intention was to give Emiya Kiritsugu a surprise, but I didn't expect to cause trouble to Mrs. Irisviel and Saber instead. I miscalculated."
Kenshin Matou shook his head. He didn't want Saber to have a bad impression of him, as this would affect his next plan.
"Let's go Iskandar, Gilgamesh, that 'half-blood' should be here soon, shall we go have a couple of drinks first?"
"Hahaha, that's exactly what I meant."
The two looked at each other, then moved about in the Einzbern castle on their own, paying no attention to the castle owner.
Watching the other party walk towards the backyard of the castle, neither Saber nor Irisviel tried to stop them.
"..."
Saber let out a breath of upset air.
Under the current circumstances, a battle is naturally impossible.
Not to mention whether Iskandar would join forces with Caster if she attacked rashly, just looking at the child in front of her, a servant with no sense of purpose, Saber couldn't muster the slightest desire to fight.
"What should we do now, Irisviel?"
Saber, who has always been very opinionated, asks Irisviel for advice.
In response, Mrs. Irisviel's mouth twitched cutely, and her beautiful face was full of embarrassment. She didn't have any good ideas for this strange situation. "Kiritsugu, what should we do now?"
If you cut the white hair open, it will turn out to be completely black.
The lovely lady chose to throw the question to Emiya Kiritsugu, who was lying on the rooftop and observing through a sniper scope.
Emiya Kiritsugu: "..."
"Just let it be, Ellie."
Emiya Kiritsugu could not understand why Matou Kenshin and Iskandar seemed to be indifferent to the war.
Those who participate in the Holy Grail War and those who are chosen by the Holy Grail will definitely have a desire for the Holy Grail. This is certain.
It was for this reason that Emiya Kiritsugu could not figure out what the opponent who came unannounced this time was thinking.
Compared to the countless traditional magicians he had killed, the thoughts of Kenshin Matou and Iskandar were extremely difficult to guess.
"Could it be a trap?"
Maiya, who had been silent the whole time, understood Emiya Kiritsugu's feelings, and she, who was not talkative, took the initiative to speak.
"No." Saber denied her.
Mrs. Irisviel followed suit and explained:
"Although we cannot rule out the possibility that the other party is very scheming, the King of Conquerors should not be the kind of person who would resort to trickery."
At this point, Mrs. Irisviel looked strange:
"The other party and the caster's master might really be here to drink. As for... why did they choose this place."
Irisviel’s voice gradually lowered as she finished speaking.
But everyone already understood what she meant.
Although I don't know why, Master Caster's hatred for Emiya Kiritsugu is so strong that it is almost overflowing.
Naturally, Emiya Kiritsugu also discovered this.
just,
What he didn't understand was that he had never had any contact with Kenshin Matou, or even with the Matou family, let alone any conflicts.
"Where does this hatred come from?"
While Emiya Kiritsugu was thinking, Mrs. Irisviel had a new idea.
"Does the other party want to form an alliance with us to fight against Gilgamesh? After all, his strength is really..."
"No, Iskandar won't do that."
Mrs. Alice's idea made sense, but she lacked an identity.
She is not the king, Saber is the king.
"Iskander won't do that... I am the king, and he is also the king. Although alliance is a normal behavior, the other party's beliefs will not do anything that goes against his 'kingly way'."
Saber said it with certainty.
Everyone was somewhat silent.
After all, their backbone, Emiya Kiritsugu, has a very clear opinion on heroes.
"Hum~"
Iskandar, with a flushed face, walked out from the backyard at some point. He heard Saber's words and smiled with satisfaction. He said:
"You know it very well, King Knight."
"Although tonight's cocktail party was organized by Caster's Master, it is exactly what I want. If you don't want to wield swords and guns, then let's drink together. Knight King, I really want to see your 'kingly demeanor' tonight, so you must be prepared."
"Interesting, I'll take that."
This is a heroic spirit.
Altria is a person of noble character and firm belief, but no one knows what bad luck she had to meet a Master like Emiya Kiritsugu.
Iskandar's words were like a breeze that blew away Saber's sorrow.
The king's demeanor and open and honest style of doing things were all in line with Saber's wishes, so she readily agreed to Iskandar's invitation without even asking Kiritsugu Emiya what he thought.
If the other party objects, just use the Command Seal, Saber thought.
Kiritsugu Emiya is not Great Britain, nor is he a subject of Altria Pendragon. She responded to the call of the Holy Grail only to obtain the Holy Grail and realize her own long-cherished wish, and she has no intention of becoming someone else's subject.
Therefore, as long as it does not interfere with victory in the Holy Grail War, Emiya Kiritsugu has no right to tell her what to do.
She, Artoria Pendragon, is the king believed in by the people and the goal followed by the Knights of the Round Table, not a subject of Emiya Kiritsugu.
Saber felt relaxed for the first time.
Mrs. Alice noticed this keenly. She was very happy but also a little sad.
Saber was happy, and as a friend, she should share the joy.
But this happiness was based on getting rid of Emiya Kiritsugu, which made Mrs. Irisviel feel very complicated.
With such complicated thoughts in their minds, Irisviel and Saber followed Iskandar's footsteps and moved forward slowly.
This feeling is very strange. I am clearly in my own home, but I feel like a 'guest'.
"Is this the aura of a king?"
Lovely Mrs. Irisviel thought in a silly way.
It didn't take much time for the two of them, led by Iskandar, to arrive at the place where the cocktail party was held.
The scene that appeared before their eyes surprised both Irisviel and Saber.
An eight-year-old child was drinking and having fun with a white-haired old man?
And the ever-changing gestures...
Mrs. Irisviel, who was well-educated and talented, recognized it at the first sight. Her face was strange and she uttered:
"Is this... finger-guessing?"
