Chapter 40: Swords and Guns Fight (IV)
With such a strong thunder energy, the opponent should be the god of thunder or a similar heroic spirit. However, when it comes to the god of thunder related to the bull, the first thing that comes to mind is the Supreme God of Olympus. Of course, the level of that god is higher than that of the heroic spirit, so it cannot be him. But even if the heroic spirit is just his follower, it is definitely a very terrible threat.
Whether it is the master or the servant, as long as they are monitoring this battlefield, they all guessed so.
And Assassin and his master, who had scouted the mixed woods and collected traces of Rider and the battle between the moon and the moon, immediately recognized the identity of the visitor.
"...It's him." With the help of the servant's empathy, Kotomine Kirei, who was wearing a robe and had a distressed face, immediately contacted his teacher, Tosaka Tokiomi.
"Teacher, it's Rider, the Rider who fought against an unknown enemy in the mixed woods."
"Really, even Rider is here." In the underground workshop with uncertain light and darkness, the elegantly dressed man frowned and his eyes were low.
At present, the known servants present are Saber, Lancer, Rider, Assassin and... his troublesome familiar, Archer.
What will happen next... Knowing Archer's character, Tohsaka Tokiomi smiled bitterly, without any excitement of the gathering of heroes.
What if someone angered the king.
Thinking of this, Tohsaka Tokiomi couldn't help but raise his hand.
Three blood-red Command Spells flashed.
————
"Both sides put down their weapons, you are now in front of the king!"
The giant said loudly and slowly, the volume comparable to the thunder of a chariot appearing in the sky. His eyes were bright and his spirit alone seemed to be enough to force back the swords and spears that were confronting each other.
After suppressing the two servants' aura, Iskandar, who drove over, coughed lightly and continued as if to announce something important:
"My name is Iskandar, the 'King of Conquerors'. I have emerged as a Rider in this Holy Grail War!"
He said it!
He actually said his real name!
Everyone present was shocked. [6][9][s][h][u][x][.][c][o][m]On the battlefield of the Holy Grail War, the real name is the key to the strategy. It is impossible for a servant to reveal his real name.
This is like Siegfried exposing his back and Achilles exposing his heels. It is an absolute way to die!
And the most surprised person was Waver, who was squatting in the driver's seat.
"You, what on earth are you thinking about? You idiot!"
"The so-called King of Conquerors should be so dignified and upright."
The hearty laughter came from far away, and the young man riding a cool motorcycle broke into the battle place where heroes gathered, saving Waver from the danger of being shot in the head.
"What's more, Rider's Noble Phantasm is too obvious. Instead of being easily recognized, it's better to be frank and announce your arrival directly."
"Actually, you are also provoking me, right? Even if you mean 'you can't do anything to me even if I announce my identity'..." Irisviel smiled bitterly.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Shuoyue took off his helmet, did not hide his face, and looked at the heroes openly.
"Master Shuoyue, hello, don't worry about me, I'm just here to watch the show."
"Master?" Lancer raised his eyebrows with two guns in his hands, "Where is your Servant? It's very dangerous to come here alone, okay?"
"Lancer, don't underestimate him." Unexpectedly, Saber reminded her opponent.
"Oh?" The chief of the Fiona Knights raised his eyes and was about to take a closer look at the young man, but was interrupted by Rider's words.
The red-haired burly man clapped his hands vigorously, and after attracting everyone's attention, he stated his purpose in a relaxed and kind tone:
"I know that you are fighting each other for the Holy Grail. Before the battle, I have one thing to ask. Do you want to join my army and give the Holy Grail to me? In this way, I can treat you as friends and share the joy of conquering the world with you."
This is an overly nonsensical proposal. Saber was stunned without even getting angry, and Lancer opposite him didn't know what to say and was stunned there.
It was not until then that they broke through the barrier of time and truly realized that the person standing in front of them was the famous "K of Clubs".
King of Conquerors Iskandar, even in the entire world history, is the most outstanding hero. The land he conquered ranks second among all kings in ancient and modern times, second only to Genghis Khan Temujin, and above "God's Whip" Attila. He has a legend of conquering the largest country in the shortest time.
The legend of endless conquests left behind in his short life of 33 years. In human history, no one is as eager to realize his ambition to conquer the world as he is.
And now, this king who has been conquering all his life has stopped his horse and extended an olive branch to them.
Perhaps the king's eyes have been cast on this vast world, and this Holy Grail War is just a small corner that will be trampled by his iron hoof, so he will ignore the rules of the Holy Grail War and invite the heroes to conquer the world with him as if nothing had happened.
If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely be impressed by Iskandar’s broad mind, right?
However, among the Heroic Spirits present, who is not a warrior who has been tempered by blood and fire and has a will as firm as steel?
This proposal is too fantastical, and Saber is so angry that she doesn't know what to say. Lancer standing opposite seems to be still confused and doesn't know how to react.
King of Conquerors Iskandar is indeed an extraordinary Heroic Spirit. In the history of mankind, no one is closer to realizing the dream of conquering the world than him.
But no matter how great he is, this arrogant proposal is another matter. Suddenly running out and loudly announcing his name, and then asking others to surrender without even fighting. This unprecedented behavior simply ignores the norms of the Holy Grail War, making it difficult to judge whether this is a wise decision or a stupid behavior.
"I admire your courage to introduce yourself, but I cannot accept your proposal."
"Lancer shook his head with a wry smile, but there was no smile in his eyes. His sharp and threatening eyes met the King of Conquerors' contemptuous gaze, and sparks flew.
"I will only offer the Holy Grail to the new monarch who will exchange vows in this life, and that person is definitely not you, Rider."
"Is it just to express this ridiculous joke that you are hindering my duel with Lancer?"
Saber continued after Lancer. Unlike the handsome spearman, there was not even a smile on her face. For Saber, who was serious by nature, Rider's proposal itself made her very unhappy.
"Your joke is too much, King of Conquerors. As a knight, this humiliation is unbearable. "
Faced with the intense hostile looks from both Saber and Lancer, Rider grunted as if he was embarrassed, and rubbed his fist with protruding joints on his temple. Although the action looked funny, it did not reduce the majestic momentum at all.
"...Can the treatment be discussed again?"
"Stop talking!"
Saber and Lancer refused in unison. Saber added unhappily: "After all, I am the ruler of a country, shouldering the entire Great Britain. No matter how great you are, I can't surrender to you."
"Oh? You said you are the King of Britain?"
Rider seemed very interested in Saber's speech, and raised his eyebrows exaggeratedly.
"It's really surprising. I didn't expect that the famous Knight King would be such a little girl. "
"How about tasting this little girl's sword? Conqueror King. "
Like a giant dragon being touched, Saber held the sword with both hands, and the fighting spirit emanating from the sword was even stronger than when she fought against Lancer. Rider frowned and sighed deeply.
"Negotiations broke down. What a pity, it's really regrettable."
Not only Saber and Lancer felt that the behavior of the King of Conquerors was ridiculous, even the peepers hiding in the dark couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Has the world almost been conquered by such idiots?" Emiya Kiritsugu said speechlessly, as if he couldn't bear to watch, he moved the sniper scope away from Iskandar and Waver.
On the other side, a certain Master finally came back to his senses from the chaos of his own Servant.
"Rider!"
Under the hostile eyes of the two Servants, Waver's panicked voice changed:
"Let's see what you do now. What you said about conquering or not, but in the end, you still made everyone shout and beat you... Do you really think you can take Saber and Lancer as your subordinates? "
The giant servant laughed out loud, ignoring his master's question without any regret.
"Well, isn't it said that 'you should be brave enough to try everything'?"
"Because 'you should be brave enough to try everything', are you going to reveal your real name! ? "
The extremely angry Waver, with two big bags of tears in his eyes, banged on the upright Rider with his two weak fists. Looking at the scene in front of him that made people feel at a loss, Irisviel felt an indescribable embarrassment in her heart.
As for the New Moon...
Well, he was holding up the video recorder and laughing in a very unkind way.
Such an inexplicably soothing atmosphere--
"Really, it turned out to be you..."
Because a resentful voice like from the depths of hell froze again.
"I was still wondering what kind of courage you had to steal my holy relic... I didn't expect that you would actually plan to participate in the Holy Grail War yourself. Mr. Waver Velvet. "
