Chapter Thirty The Last Wish
"Ali..."
Artoria's body trembled, she lowered her head and gritted her teeth but did not dare to put the woman behind her. She could feel that Alice Fil's vitality was gradually weakening.
——It’s like the lingering candle in the wind that is unstable, but it has really come to an end and may be extinguished at any time.
Artoria did not dare to face Alice Fir now, and she was also worried that any action of her could completely end the other party's last chances. Therefore, she could only keep the other party behind her back and dare not move.
Because the latter's current situation is really bad, and it is as fragile as a porcelain doll. It makes the knight girl feel that using a little force or any movement will completely destroy the other person's body.
"Don't worry, saber...hasn't you telling you, this is my mission."
Alice Phil gasped for difficulty and spoke in a gentle tone as much as possible. Perhaps she also understood the pain in the other person's heart at this moment and no longer asked the other person to let him go.
"To be honest... I, I'm actually very happy... Because I had the opportunity to end all this, Ilia... Haha, Ilia will definitely cry when she sees me now..."
When she talked about her daughter, she finally paused for a moment, and her tone naturally showed a hint of reluctance and reluctance.
It’s a pity that there is no way to grow up with my daughter.
"Ali..."
Artoria's body trembled slightly in pain, but she didn't know what to do now.
"Saber, really, don't be sad for me..."
Alice Phil gasped, and seemed to laugh really happily, "This should be the last time I have talked to you, so please cheer up - you should know that I can rest next time, you still have to fight, my Knight."
When a person is about to die, he suddenly becomes awake or has a brief excitement. This phenomenon is called the return to light.
I don’t know if Alice Phil had such signs, and she spoke more and more smoothly. She was gasping and moaning in pain before, but now she was acting no different from under normal conditions.
However, this phenomenon is often a sign before sudden death. Artoria closed her lips tightly, and the sadness made it difficult for her to breathe.
She took a deep breath: "Please rest assured, as I said, I will give you a victory, master!"
Understanding what Alice Phil wants to hear now, the Knight King gritted his teeth and repeated his previous vows.
"That's great, saber..."
Alice Phil's powerless but joyful voice came from behind.
“…”
“…”
The two of them then fell into silence. The hall of the Tomoki People's Association was dark. Compared with the continuous explosions from the outside world, the sound of gunfire and cannons highlighted a strange silence.
Time passes ruthlessly, and I don’t know how long it has passed—
"That, saber, can I ask you one more thing in the end? This is my last request."
When the subtle and gentle voices sounded behind him again, Artoria's fingers trembled gently, and even her breathing became disordered in an instant.
She had a premonition that this was really the best thing Alice Phil had to say.
"Ari, tell me..." Artoria replied in a hoarse voice.
"Saber, do you remember - what holy relics were used when Kiritsugu summoned you out?" Alice Fir's voice was pure and gentle, but he did not immediately speak his request.
"It's...scarves."
He replied in a low voice, Artoria seemed to have thought of something, and a very complicated expression appeared on her face.
The "avalon" called the ideal town, the land of eternal spring in King Arthur's legend, is believed to be associated with the island of "Immortal Apple" in Greek mythology. It is also the hometown of the elves in Western mythology.
The Holy Sword Sheath, named as the Goblin, was excavated by Einzberen in Cornwall and gave Emiya Kiritsugu as a catalyst to summon Artoria.
It is a treasure that truly exists in the world, and is a pair of "sheaps" with the holy sword "swearing to victory sword "excalibur". The holder's body will never age and can heal all damage, and even curse can heal.
If the holy sword sheath was in Artoria's hands before, then the curse damage of the demon gun held by Dilumudo - the sure-destroyed Huang Qiangwei, is not a problem at all. If Avalon enters a state of complete protection, no one can harm the king who is in the land of Avalon.
Even Gilgamesh's sword of detachment is the same.
In legend, the loss of this sheath left an ominous shadow in King Arthur's life, and it eventually involved the collapse of the kingdom. It is not an exaggeration to say that Artoria's fate turned around, no wonder she showed such an expression.
"Yes, your scabbard...is inside my body now, otherwise I would definitely not be able to hold on now."
Alice Phil said a little apologetically, and then without waiting for Artoria to speak, he immediately started to speak again, interrupting the words of the Knight Girl.
"I know what you want to say, saber... But I am not a servant, I can only passively accept it, and I cannot fully exert the power of the scabbard, just like now. Even if it remains in my body, it can only do this..."
Her body was constantly breaking down, then repairing, and repeating this process infinitely.
If it weren't for the existence of the Holy Sword Sheath, Alice Phil would have long since died. It would be impossible for her to be able to support her with her own will. After all, death is unbearable for her.
"My body has collapsed to this level, so please..."
She would not survive in such a disgusting state as a monster, and even if the power of the Holy Sword Sheath can be fully exerted and completely healed her body, she would never make such a choice.
Because Alice Phil's mission is like this, just by leveraging the power of the Holy Sword Sheath, the Holy Grail that is about to be nurtured has been stuck in the state of "nurtured". Although it is her life that has been preserved, it is useless to the whole thing.
As long as the Holy Grail War is not completely over, she, her husband and daughter will not be spared by Einzberen.
"I... understand, do you want me to hand over the Holy Sword Sheath to your husband after this and then protect him to continue to win this Holy Grail War?"
Artoria nodded hard and sweared solemnly.
"I promise you with my sword, reputation and even life that it will be as you wish."
Although she was already very repulsive to Kiritsugu Emiya, if this was the last request of the princess, she would still bet on dignity, life and the glory of the knight path to accomplish such a thing.
only--
"No, saber..."
Alice Phil breathed hard, but denied Artoria's thoughts, "It's not Kiritsugu - it's that caster, do you still remember it? The boy who can turn into a style..."
"What, what? Aili, are you..."
Saber doubted that he had heard it wrong, or that Alice Phil's consciousness was no longer awake.
"This time there is a problem with the Holy Grail. The colorless power inside has been polluted. I saw it...it will arouse the disasters until it destroys all human beings who should be cursed, but it is also a real opportunity."
Alice Phil said with a very firm voice, as if she was about to explain everything clearly before her last breath was completely cut off.
"And, only that caster can prevent this disaster from happening...but, but..."
but.
That caster will not take the initiative to take risks for the sake of humans in this world.
Even if it is an incarnation, if there is no accident, he will only watch the human principles of this world become extinct.
...
...
"Just dead like that..."
The decadent young man hid a burning street, staring at the backs of the two people who had just left, suppressed his desire to assassinate each other, and turned his eyes to the huge pit on the other side.
It was the place where the ancient king died, but nothing was left behind now. The corpse of the king that had been smashed and smashed has turned into light and flew into the burning city night sky.
He originally thought there would be another sinister battle between dragons and tigers, but he never expected that he would be divided into life and death in a straightforward way. The other side is the ancient king in the legend!
"So what about the ancient king? If he is really invincible, just change the Holy Grail War to the Gilgamesh summoning and the battle between the media. Whoever summons him first and then the others will give up the right way..."
Mu Xiu next to him said lightly.
"And just as he was about to use his ultimate move, he was shot down by an arrow. He had consumed a lot before, and it was impossible to shoot the treasure indefinitely. In addition, he used the Sky Lock to kill him a few days ago. He probably subconsciously thought that his Sky Lock could definitely control the other party, but he was hammered into meat sauce by the other party at once."
He spoke, exhaled a long sigh, and then added thoughtfully—
"But I didn't expect it to be like this. Hercules was actually an Archer agent... It seems that Darius III's master was also obscene by them, otherwise there would be no reason for the news to be leaked."
The decadent youth agrees:
"Yes, fortunately they can't control the demigod hero spirit of the Archer's vocation. Otherwise, according to myths and legends, the giant himself must have a magical treasure..."
Speaking of this, his voice slowly diminished, and then he seemed to think of something: "Wait, even if you use the secret technique to go crazy, it is impossible to change the spiritual foundation, right? Could it be that Hercules, who is a archer, also has twelve lives?"
"No, Hercules has now completely restrained Jin Shanshan in all aspects. Even if it is not for the sudden attack and various calculations to make Jin Shanshan careless, if it really fights, the Sky Lock will not work at all, so most of Jin Shanshan is still at a disadvantage."
The young-looking god incarnated incarnation shook his head and denied the speculation.
"If you can still have twelve lives under such an advantage, it would be too buggy - no one, including me, can fight against Hercules in this Holy Grail War."
Hercules is the greatest hero in ancient Greek mythology, the son of the main god Zeus and Arcmene, a mixed blood of man and god, and a demigod hero.
Of course, it is the standard of this world, not the "demigod" in the main god space. After all, even Mu Xiu's own body is good, although it can be called a god in many worlds.
However, according to the standards of the main god space, it is actually a demigod.
The vast god who completely transcends the realm of human beings is a true S-level figure or a fourth-level advanced perfection. In a sense, it can be regarded as a saint without a holy position.
Therefore, Mu Xiu absolutely does not believe that the concept of "demigod" in this world is so cruel, and the other party's overall performance is definitely problematic.
