Type-Moon, joins the Lion King at the beginning

Chapter 292: King's Feast Part
The battle seemed to have ended here. Even in Iskandar's inherent barrier, the few people were unable to bring much pressure to Li Ye. He could only face the overwhelming firepower.

Even Artoria, the Knight King, knew that there was no way to defeat Li Ye at this moment. It was not because of the difference in skills or strength, but because of the crushing firepower.

It's exactly the same bombardment style as Archer.

Not only Altria, but even Diarmait Oudina had to stop.

Now that Li Ye has obtained Little Red Riding Hood, his combat power has improved by leaps and bounds. Diarmuid Audi, who could not pose a threat to Li Ye in the first place, is more aware of the gap.

Moreover, if Li Ye disregarded the safety of ordinary people and launched firepower to destroy the inherent barrier in Fuyuki City, his master Kenneth would hardly be spared.

After considering all these, Diarmait Oudina had to stop and looked at Li Ye who was holding Little Red Riding Hood with a serious expression.

And the frenzied Lancelot actually retreated decisively the moment the inherent barrier dissipated. It was unknown whether it was the order of the master or his own will.

Apart from these three, what Li Ye was concerned about was the King of Conquerors, Iskandar, whose magic response was extremely low.

Not only did he restrain Lancelot for a time, but he also deployed an inherent barrier and forced Ptolemy to release a treasure. These several battles also completely consumed the magic power accumulated by Iskandar.

If there is anyone who can leave early, Iskandar, who has now lost his ability to fight, is undoubtedly the first choice.

Such thoughts came to Iskandar and Liye's minds. Even the Master, Weber Velvet, was unaware of the current predicament.

"Hey, King of Conquerors, your days of riding around on an ox cart are over."

Li Ye, who was holding Little Red Riding Hood, put away the Holy Spear Longomyniad, and said with a smile under the extremely vigilant eyes of the crowd: "Everyone calm down, you can't beat me anyway, why don't you have a drink?"

Although Little Red Riding Hood was an unexpected existence, Li Ye, who obtained half of Little Red Riding Hood, also completely grasped the overall situation.

In this Holy Grail War, no one can resist him except Gilgamesh who is firing on all cylinders, or Artoria who may be able to activate the restraints of the Holy Sword XIII.

But even so, Li Ye did not intend to kill Iskandar or Altria. These people's names did not exist on the death list that should enter the Holy Grail.

"Lee Ye, what do you mean?"

Weber Velvet, who finally came to his senses, lay beside the ox cart, looking at Li Ye with confusion, as if he didn't understand why Li Ye wanted to negotiate.

It was Li Ye who won the victory, but now he has this attitude. What does he think of this war? !
"Boy——"

Unlike Weber's confusion, Iskandar was very clear about the current predicament, and Li Ye's attitude also showed that he was aware of this situation.

Despite this, Li Ye still chose to cease fire.

Yes, a ceasefire.

Now the initiative of the battle is not in the hands of him or the Knight King Artoria and others, but is decided by the Master Caster on the opposite side.

This is why Iskandar was puzzled.

Li Ye never seemed to have thought of killing them here and completely seizing the Holy Grail.

After two battles on the first and second nights, Iskandar finally noticed the point that they had overlooked.

The Holy Grail War is a secret war fought by seven Masters summoning Servants. The condition for victory is simple, which is to kill the other six Servants except yourself, thus declaring the end of the Holy Grail War.

The winner will naturally get the omnipotent wishing machine.

In a normal Holy Grail War, it would be the safest and most normal thing to do before engaging in battle is to investigate the strength of the enemy's Master and Servants.

Few people would let go of the opportunity to defeat the enemy.

After all, one less enemy means one step closer to victory.

Altria, Diarmait Oudina, and even the King of Conquerors himself thought so.

Although the King of Conquerors had been acting up to this point in order to make things go in the direction he wished for and to see what he wanted to see, the essence of the matter was not much different.

There is nothing wrong with this idea, as long as the results are the same.

However, this time in the Holy Grail War, there appeared an anomaly, an existence even more abnormal than the Hero King who was at the top of the regular Holy Grail War.

Not only did he summon Merlin, who could never become a Heroic Spirit, but he was also the last Knight of the Round Table - Liye.

It was like a man in a fog, but he was clearly a living being, and his strength was strong enough to rival the heroes of the Age of Gods.

However, Li Ye, who had absolute suppressive power in this Holy Grail War, never killed any servant. It was not because he could not do it, but because he did not choose to do it.

'What is he waiting for?'

Li Ye, who has the ability to accelerate the progress of the Holy Grail War, has experienced two major wars but has not killed a single Servant. Even now, when the King of Conquerors had lost his ability to fight and was barely able to maintain his physical form, Li Ye did not choose to kill him.

This made Iskandar very curious about what Li Ye wanted to do. Iskandar was not afraid of death, but was curious about Li Ye's actions.

The brief thought ended, but before Iskandar could speak, Artoria, who was not far from him, took the lead and said, "Knight, what do you want to do?"

Altria knew that she had experienced failure again.

Not only did they fail to snatch Irisviel back from Liye, even the four of them [Servants], plus Iskandar's inherent barrier of the Noble Phantasm, were unable to have any effect on Liye.

From the beginning of the battle to now, the most serious injury Li Ye suffered was probably the broken arm.

Apart from this, Li Ye's condition did not decline at all. He was even at his peak because of Little Red Riding Hood. That was the peak power of a hero from the Age of Gods, a power that had not even been reduced due to the current mysterious decline.

The absolute gap in front of Artoria, although it did not make her retreat, it also made Artoria realize that it would be impossible to save Irisviel in a short time.

Similarly, Altria also noticed that Li Ye had never shown any murderous intent.

As if he realized the meaning of Altria's words and Iskandar's gaze, Li Ye said naturally: "Because there is no need. It is useless for me to defeat you now, and I can't get the Holy Grail, or the Holy Grail I get is not very useful."

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of everyone present changed.

Except for Weber Velvet who wanted to compete for the Holy Grail because he wanted to prove his talent to Kenneth El-Melloi Archipelago, servants including Altria and Iskandar all had their own wishes that they could not give up.

It is because of this wish that he responded to the call of the Holy Grail, appeared from the Seat of Heroes, and waged this false war.

But the information revealed by Li Ye was something they could not ignore.

Altria quickly asked, "What does this mean? Knight, please answer me!"

"Yes, Liye, isn't the Holy Grail almost complete?"

Although he did not have a strong desire for the Holy Grail, Waver was still very curious about why Li Ye said that.

Waver still had great faith in the magic attainments of his classmate, with whom he had spent a year, and besides, Li Ye had no reason to deceive them about the Holy Grail.

"It's simple. Whether I'm here or not, you can't make a wish with the Holy Grail."

Li Ye waved his hand with a calm expression and said, "I shouldn't have told you this, but for some reasons, I still want to tell you.

The current Holy Grail has been contaminated. Although its function has not changed, it will develop in a [malignant] way.

In short, it will distort your wishes and make them come true in the way you least want to see."

When these words came out, Altria and the others were all shocked, and Waver even exclaimed: "Eh? No way?!"

"That's a good thing done by the Einzbern family. You can ask Emiya Kiritsugu to ask Einzbern what exactly they summoned during the last Holy Grail War."

Li Ye, who was holding Little Red Riding Hood’s hand, smiled and said, “If you want to know about the Holy Grail, why don’t you find a place to sit and talk.”

Seeing this, Artoria and Iskandar looked at each other.

Unlike Altria and Iskandar, Diarmuid Oudina was asking for his Master's opinion.

Although Kenneth had already left the battlefield, he was fully aware of Li Ye's frank words, so he also knew about the issue of the Holy Grail.

Although for Kenneth, this Holy Grail is only for adding a mark to his historical achievements, Kenneth will not miss this opportunity.

Even if it is this guy Li Ye who explains the issue of the Holy Grail.

"Follow them."

Kenneth said so, and therefore Diarmait Odinar had to join the team.

A moment later, in the Einzbern Castle on the outskirts of Fuyuki.

Under Li Ye's strong request, Altria, who was forced to pursue a sense of ritual, had to bring several people to the Einzbern base. Iskandar, who was very interested, even took out a barrel of aged wine from somewhere and wanted to share it with them.

Li Ye let go of Little Red Riding Hood and let her wander in the garden, and then started chatting with Weber arm in arm. Although they had experienced two battles, their friendship seemed to have not changed much.

But later on, Weber poured out all his grievances to Li Ye, including the setbacks in his studies and magic in the three years after Li Ye left, and the many things that Li Ye had concealed.

"You deceived me so badly, Li Ye!"

After a brief exchange, when Li Ye was about to satisfy Altria and others' confusion about the Holy Grail, an uninvited guest arrived.

"Hehe, are you holding a banquet behind my back?"

Gilgamesh, the oldest hero king of mankind, appeared in front of Li Ye and others.
