Chapter 17 The way to break the situation lies within

"Hey!" Weber looked at his servant with dissatisfaction, the man with red hair and a beard.

"Hey! Did you hear that? The Holy Grail War has already begun, and you just eat snacks and watch TV every day, every day. You're worse than a familiar! You're worse than a mouse!"

"And didn't I tell you to stay in spirit form when it's not necessary? I'm the one who provides the magic power you need to materialize!"

After waking up, Weber sat cross-legged on the bed, dancing and chattering. At the moment, he didn't know that the man in front of him, his servant, would be the king he pursued for the rest of his life.

"I say, being able to keep calm is the most basic requirement for a Master, right? Besides, isn't it coming?"

"It's coming?" Weber looked puzzled. "What's coming?"

"Wait." Weber suddenly jumped up from the bed after discovering something, and said with a serious face: "The alarm device I set up has been triggered!"

"Let's go," Iskandar had already put on his cloak, "the people outside have been waiting for us for a long time."

……

……

"You mean, you're here to form an alliance with us?"

Outside the room, Weber stood behind Iskandar, stroking his chin and looking at the butterfly in front of him with a look of doubt.

"Why should we form an alliance with you? There can only be one winner in the Holy Grail War, right? I can't guarantee that you won't betray us and stab us in the back."

Although he is a student by profession, Waver is not a simple person and is full of doubts about Kenshin Matou's request for an alliance.

"I can use the Command Spell to prevent my Servants from ever attacking you, and prevent you from winning the Holy Grail War."

Before leaving the house, Kenshin Matou had already thought of a solution to Waver's concerns.

"Really?" Iskandar, who had been silent all this time, spoke.

Kenshin Matou knew that on the surface, it was he and Waver, the two Masters, who were negotiating, but in reality, the one in charge on Waver's side was the Heroic Spirit Iskandar, not Waver, the Master.

As expected, Iskandar immediately raised his own questions and hit the nail on the head.

"From what I understand, the Holy Grail will give priority to those who are more sincere and eager to become the Master. Then...how did you become the Master when you voluntarily gave up the Holy Grail War at the beginning?"

……

……

[Iskander asked you a question, and you told him about your experience. He saw your honesty, but rejected your request for an alliance. He showed you an expression that you couldn't understand.]

[The alliance plan failed, and you returned to the Matou family. You were confused and didn't know how to survive in the Holy Grail War.]

[The Holy Grail, the so-called universal wish-granting machine, you have no interest in it at all. You decide to take a gamble and voluntarily give up the Holy Grail War.]

[You went to the church and explained your purpose to Kotomine Kirei's father, the Archbishop. He was very happy to know that you voluntarily gave up the Holy Grail War, but when he was about to revoke your Master qualification, an accident happened.]

[The church's methods are ineffective against your servants. They have no ability to remove your Master's qualifications.]

[Your presence caught Gilgamesh's attention, but he ignored you and went to the Matou family alone.]

[When you returned to the Matou family, your home had become a ruin. Matou Kariya and Sakura were also affected by the aftermath of the battle and died at home.]

[You looked at the Servant who was drinking with Gilgamesh as if nothing had happened, and you were furious. You made the Servant commit suicide at the cost of three Command Seals and the spell power of the Matou family to strengthen the Command Seals.]

[You failed. The power of the Command Spell is ineffective against your Servant.]

[Gilgamesh looked at you with joy. You chose to commit suicide.]

【Rating: D】

[Comment: The decision to seek allies seems to be correct, but you seem to lack understanding of yourself, which leads to failure. ]

[Settlement: Gain some experience in getting along with the servant. ]

It's so hard for me, really, why is life so hard?
Jianchen Matou asked a soul-searching question, but no one could give him an answer.

"Hu..." He exhaled heavily, then turned his head and looked at Miss Lin for a long time, until Miss Lin became uncomfortable, and then he absorbed all of Lin's energy.

This calmed his mood a little.

The alliance failed, being stuck at home was like choosing a slow death, and he was holding back from fighting his own servants head-on. And! Tnnd, why did the Command Spell become ineffective!!!
I can’t figure it out. Jianchen Matou can’t figure it out at all.

The servant who was summoned without any holy relics and only by magic circle with the best compatibility gave Kenshin Matou a surprise, but also put him in a dilemma.

The simulator is very powerful. By absorbing the memories in the simulator, he can "predict the future" to a certain extent.

With this ability, as long as the servant is not too weak, he has the confidence to "survive in troubled times."

Can……

It just so happens that his Servant could kill Matou Zouken, an old guy who had lived for hundreds of years, in one move, and could also be killed together with him by Emiya Kiritsugu who didn't bring any Servant with him.

Just... very confusing.

However, because of the previous experience of being killed both by Emiya Kiritsugu and his Servant, Kenshin Matou naturally thought that his Servant was a waste.

But now he has changed his mind.

In the simulator, Gilgamesh obviously fought with his servants, otherwise the Matou family house would not have become ruins.

But the result was far beyond Jianchen Jianchen's expectations.

His servant, the servant who could be defeated by Emiya Kiritsugu even with himself, actually did not lose!
Based on this point alone, Kenshin Matou felt that he had to re-evaluate the servant who did not want to reveal his name.

This servant might be the key to breaking the impasse.

Thinking of the key point, Kenshin Matou's tense heart relaxed slightly.

A Servant with whom I have a great affinity? Really...

Ding ding ding, the school bell rang.

After accompanying Miss Rin to the first-grade classroom to find Sakura, they walked home together, chatting and laughing to enhance their relationship, after witnessing the two sisters being picked up by the beautiful woman Toosaka Aoi.

Kenshin Matou did not choose to return to the Matou family, but returned to school alone and climbed onto the school rooftop alone.

After studying magic in the simulator for more than ten years, Kenshin Matou is no longer the same Kenshin Matou. He can feel the bugs on his body and understand their abilities.

Sensing insects can sense the physical condition of the host, but they do not have the ability to hear sounds or transmit images.

Therefore, there was naturally no need for him to trouble Miss Rin.

Although she trusted Miss Lin not to betray her, she was only eight years old and could not rule out the possibility that she might let the cat out of the bag in front of her parents.

Knowing what kind of guy Miss Rin's father, Tousaka Tokitoki, is, Kenshin Matou naturally chose to do it himself to be on the safe side to ensure that everything would go smoothly.

After all, reality is not a simulator, and there is no option to start over after death.
