The teacher, who usually appeared extremely serious in front of his students, muttered something in a voice only he could hear.

"If I were truly skilled... Rider wouldn't have lost."

This is a confession known only to Webber Velvet.

He did not disclose this matter in the Clock Tower report.

But no matter what, this will always be a pain in his heart.

Mephisto's pre-planned explosions did not end there after his defeat.

Centered on the residence of its master, Ryunosuke Amusei, several nearby blocks were engulfed in flames in a very short time.

"how so?!"

Looking at the fleeing crowds on the street, Waver, who had just finished purchasing necessities with his servant Iskandar, seemed somewhat at a loss.

His situation is somewhat similar to that of Matou Kariya.

Because they lacked accurate intelligence and were unaware of the church's early order to suppress Caster, they naturally didn't know that the target of their attack was actually near their residence.

but--

As a magician, Webber still sensed that something was a little off.

After all, it's absolutely impossible for an ordinary person to cause so many blocks to catch fire at the same time.

So--

That leaves only followers.

As for what kind of Servant it is, that's not quite clear.

But according to the rules of the Holy Grail War, they would definitely be absolute enemies.

However, Weber had something else on his mind at the moment.

That's where the elderly couple who took care of him lived, also within these few blocks.

The phone is now completely unreachable.

Nothing will go wrong, right?

A few beads of cold sweat appeared on Weber's forehead as he thought about this.

He wasn't worried about losing his place to live—after all, he could just find another one.

He was worried that the elderly couple might have run into some trouble.

After all... they were so good to me.

Iskandar, the Servant standing nearby, quickly sensed his Master's worry.

He asked directly:

"Kid, what's wrong?"

"You didn't look too well just now... Is something wrong?"

"..."

Weber looked at Iskandar beside him.

To be fair.

If he hadn't been summoned during the Holy Grail War, Waver felt he would never have had any connection with such a person.

After all, this guy's personality is just too outgoing in every sense!

Seeing modern clothes and finding them interesting, he would put his arm around Weber's shoulder and shout in his gruff voice:

"Hey kid, buy me an outfit like that too!"

"That's right! It must have the words 'Grand Strategy' printed on it; only then will it be worthy of the title of Conqueror King!"

While Weber doubted whether such a temperament could truly match the legendary Alexander the Great.

He would then burst into laughter and, in a completely unconcerned tone, offer the perfect proof—that is, to tell Weber the story of his expedition without missing a single detail.

Its brilliance and detail convinced this half-baked Master that it was his own personal experience.

That's right.

Iskandar was indeed the legendary conqueror, a great and magnanimous hero.

Perhaps they felt there was nothing to hide, or perhaps they had no choice but to seek help from Iskandar.

After thinking for a moment, Weber told him directly about his concerns.

"I see."

After listening to Weber's words, Iskandar also recalled the kind old couple.

During the time I was using the alias Alex, I did receive a lot of meticulous care from them.

He slapped his forehead.

"Kid, is that what you're worried about?"

"Hmm." Weber's gaze was fixed on the sea of ​​fire before him.

"But it seems... there's no way to go back."

"Hahahaha~"

Iskandar burst into laughter.

"How could there be no way?"

"Boy, let's go!"

"what?!"

Before Webber could react, Iskandar grabbed his hand and they ran together into the sea of ​​fire.

They stood out so conspicuously among the fleeing crowd.

If there hadn't been a life-threatening situation behind them, many people would probably have stopped there to figure out what the two were up to.

Going against the flow of traffic, the Rider group reached the heart of the neighborhood.

The buildings here are all ablaze; you can feel the scorching heat just by breathing in them.

Those who can run have probably already escaped from here.

Realizing that things couldn't continue like this, Weber quickly pulled Iskandar back.

"Rider! What exactly do you want?!"

"..."

Iskandar looked around to make sure no one was around, then patted Webber on the shoulder and began to explain his reasons in a very serious tone.

"Kid, I haven't seen those two old people along the way."

"I'm afraid... they really didn't escape."

"what?!"

Upon hearing Iskandar's words, Weber realized that the big man in front of him was not only generous, but also had a keen eye for things.

But now is not the time to dwell on such things, Weber quickly asked:

"Rider, what should we do?"

"Of course we'll go back and save them."

Iskandar looked into the depths of the street—which was already engulfed in flames.

"If I remember correctly, the direction of home should be this way, right?"

"Yes, it is."

"it is good!"

Iskandar raised his sword toward the sky.

In an instant, thunder roared in the sky above his head.

That was the voice of Inazuma, far more terrifying than the flames at this moment, an undeniable thunder and lightning.

"Gordias Wheel!"

As Iskandar roared, a bolt of lightning struck vertically into the ground in front of the two.

As it dissipated, a chariot pulled by two divine oxen appeared.

This is the Gordias Wheel, the legendary chariot used in sacrifices to Zeus, now displayed in its true form before Weber.

Iskandar grabbed Weber and threw him up there.

"Kid, hold on tight!"

"what?!"

Before Weber could respond, Iskandar once again raised his sword, pointing it at the endless sea of ​​fire.

"In the name of the Conqueror King, I command you to run!"

The divine bull roared to the sky, and then began to walk through the flames.

Its speed is comparable to that of modern cars.

"This, this is too fast!"

Weber gripped the edge of the chariot, a look of panic on his face.

"Rider, can you slow down a bit?!"

Upon hearing his Master's words, Iskandar burst into laughter.

"Yes, yes!"

"But if we do that, we won't be able to get to the couple quickly, will we?"

"My Master, do you want to see that kind of thing happen?"

"..."
