Shen Qiu had prepared the three self-mandated certificates in advance. As a species that can take betrayal for granted for the sake of profit, distrust among magicians is commonplace.

Although none of the three people present—Shen Qiu, Rin Tohsaka, and Kairi Shishikage—were that kind of person, it was necessary to do so in order to make each other feel more at ease.

Sigishwara, church.

Hello, Rider.

"There's no need for a fake greeting. I received orders from Master to come and support you. It would be better if you told me what's on your mind."

The green-haired cavalryman didn't seem to have a very good personality. Although Amakusa Shiro spoke gently and had his signature smile on his face, Achilles always felt a strange sense of disgust towards him for some reason.

"Ruler has been summoned and should have already set foot on Romanian soil. In any case, she will become our enemy. Let's go and destroy her."

Not long ago, Amakusa Shiro's revelation was activated once again. As one of the representatives of the Counter Force, Ruler could never possibly agree with the wish he entrusted to the Greater Grail.

Since that's the case, it's better to eliminate her sooner rather than let her cause trouble later.

"Tch, I get it."

After hearing the order, Achilles didn't waste any words and decisively turned and left the church.

But as he stepped out of the church, he paused for a moment.

"Hey, Father, do you know where my Master is?"

Achilles asked with a gloomy face.

"How would I know about such things? But it's normal for magicians to hide because they're cowardly, isn't it?"

Amakusa Shiro answered with his signature smile.

Tulipas.

"My lord! Please take a look! These are your men!"

Inside the castle's main hall, Danic looked at the four kneeling heroic spirits on the ground with immense confidence. Even though the relics were strictly guarded by the Eighth Secret Society of the Holy Church and the Clock Tower, he still managed to obtain these high-quality relics over the past sixty years.

“Very good, Danic. Now—”

"All heroic spirits who have come in pursuit of the Holy Grail! Your destiny will be intertwined with ours, and our glory will be your glory. When you fight to the very last moment as Servants of the Black Faction, you will obtain the most precious treasure in the world!"

Vlad III stood up and faced the heroic spirits with unwavering confidence; no matter what, they would be the final victors!

Sigishwara, church.

"Merciful God! Suppress those evil thoughts, and do not let them infiltrate my dreams!"

With a loud crash, Caster ruthlessly smashed open the church's wooden door, chanting some seemingly nonsensical words as he did so, his body even appearing to dance.

"Caster, can you speak in a way that we can understand?"

Semiramis felt an immense headache upon seeing this Caster named William Shakespeare. Despite being a Servant summoned as a Magician, he knew absolutely nothing about magic, let alone manufacturing workshops and tools.

Not only are his stats low, but he also likes to say some inexplicable things. If Amakusa Shirou hadn't said that "his Noble Phantasm might be very useful in future battles," she would have even wanted to make him commit suicide and get a different Servant.

"Huh? What I just said was an excerpt from my famous work, Macbeth. You haven't heard of it?" Shakespeare stroked his beard, looking somewhat puzzled after seeing the Empress's reaction.

"Are you looking for trouble, Caster!"

The Assyrian Empire existed between 600 and 900 BC, while Shakespeare lived in the 16th and 17th centuries AD, a difference of about 1800 years between their lifetimes.

How could she possibly have read Shakespeare's works?

"Alright, alright, don't be too angry. You know that's just the kind of person he is." Just as Semiramis was about to use magic to turn Caster into spirit particles, Amakusa Shiro's gentle voice came from behind again.

After hearing Amakusa Shiro's words, Semiramis snorted and turned to walk towards the backyard. The Noble Phantasm was almost finished, and she wanted to go and take another look.

"So, Caster, what brings you here?"

Unlike Semiramis, Amakusa Shirou's attitude towards Caster was much better. In fact, he was always very kind to everyone, which was probably a characteristic of a "saint".

Although he never considered himself a saint.

Actually...

At this point, Shakespeare showed a slightly embarrassed and awkward expression.

"That Berserker guy, I really want to go beat him up. Judging from the direction, he's probably in the Black team's base."

"what!"

Semiramis, who was about to leave the church, felt dizzy immediately after hearing Shakespeare's words. The Red Team was already short of combat power, and Rider, the ace, had gone to obstruct the saintess. Caster, who had no combat power, was also eliminated.

"Now, Archer is probably the only option, but I don't think I can handle such a big problem on her own."

Amakusa Shiro did not panic upon learning of Berserker's rampage. The berserker he summoned this time, named Spartacus, was such a Sevent, devoid of reason and unable to communicate, and would not obey even Master's orders.

It was just that it had been tightly bound by Assassin's magic chains before, so how could it suddenly go berserk for no reason?

"What should we do, Master? Archer is an excellent Servant, but she is not good at close combat. Berserker has that Noble Phantasm. It would be difficult for Archer to stop Spartacus's rampage on her own."

According to the original storyline, Amakusa Shirou also possessed Lancer Karna, so he didn't take Berserker's rampage seriously. In any case, he could use him to launch an attack and test the strength of the Black Faction, so it wasn't a big problem.

However, now that Karna has been summoned by Shen Qiu, they are inherently missing two Servants. If Berserker goes berserk again, the Red team will be in a worse situation, and the entire battle will be very unfavorable.

The butterfly effect has already quietly begun at this moment.

"What should we do now?"

Even someone as intelligent as Amakusa felt deeply overwhelmed by this dire situation.

Thinking of this, Amakusa Shiro couldn't help but sigh. The things he had planned had gone wrong one after another, and there was a hidden meaning behind it all, as if they were targeting him.

"...Is that you, the restraint?"

He spoke softly, in a voice only he could hear.

"However, no matter what... no matter what, I will fulfill this tragic wish that I have been planning for sixty years! No one can stop me!"

Thinking of this, a ruthless glint appeared in Amakusa Shiro's eyes!

"Should we ask that magician named Mr. Shen for help? Since we're both on the red side, maybe he'd be willing to help." After thinking for a while, Semiramis felt that this was probably the only option for the time being.

"Impossible. They must have already figured something out, otherwise they wouldn't have treated us that way." Without any hesitation, Amakusa Shiro rejected Semiramis's proposal.

"So what about that Master named Shishikai Kairi? He should also have a Servant who is a top-tier Servant, right? If he has two top-tier Servants, then even Berserker should be able to stop him (okay, okay)."

After much deliberation, the Assyrian empress realized that they seemed to be in a dead end, with no other option but to seek outside help.

Caster has no combat ability, Rider went to stop Ruler, and Archer alone could not stop him. His strength was limited before that Noble Phantasm was officially completed.

"The other party hasn't come to see us yet, isn't their attitude already very clear?"

Although I don't want to admit it, there's a high chance that the Master named Shishikai Kairi is in cahoots with Mr. Shen.

"Rider can't come back. Ruler is the biggest obstacle to our plans; he has to be dead for me to feel at ease. But since we've already fallen out with Ruler, there are some things I don't mind doing..."

PS: Please give me flowers, subscriptions, and votes! I've been having a writer's block lately, so I hope you can all continue to support me.

"Anyway, we've already fallen out with Ruler. Although we had excluded this from our plans to prevent unforeseen changes, things have come to this point, so we have no choice but to use it again."

"But what about Berserker..."

"Let's just give up! Anyway, this is a good opportunity to see what kind of Sevent the Black Faction will use in response. I'll use all my mana to give Berserker a chance to unleash his Noble Phantasm, just consider it a challenge to the Black Faction's Servants!"

Amakusa Shiro ignored Semiramis and Shakespeare, who were still somewhat confused, and walked straight towards the church's backyard, only to suddenly stop when he reached the door.

“I know what you’re thinking. Losing a Sevent when our fighting strength is already insufficient is undoubtedly making matters worse for us, but—”

Amakusa Shiro took a deep breath and then took another step.

"Don't worry, we will have an even more powerful Servant. If it is him, even if he is not one of the top three Servants, he will still have attributes that surpass those of the top three Servants!"

After saying that, Amakusa Shiro (303) went into the backyard without looking back.

"Hmm, although I don't quite understand, something extraordinary must be about to happen again, right? In that case, in that case!" Shakespeare felt incredibly excited, as if endless thoughts were flooding into his mind.

A pen and a blank sheet of paper appeared in his hand out of thin air.

"Record, record, and record some more! We must record everything that happens; that is the meaning of our existence! We must make sure that everyone in the world knows what is happening here, in this country!"

The hotel in town.

"Hey, Lancer's Master, I misunderstood you. I really didn't expect you to be so generous! Just tell me what you need in the future, and as long as Master doesn't object, I, Mordred, will definitely keep my word!"

In the hotel restaurant, Mordred tore off a huge piece of roast beef leg and made a satisfied sound.

Her outfits also changed to the fashionable styles of 04. Incidentally, in a relatively traditional country like Romania, Mordred's outfits were a bit too "revealing".

Her top was a sexy crop top, and her bottom was a pair of short hot pants. Combined with Mordred's pretty face, she would definitely turn heads on the street.

No man can resist!

"Hey, hey, hey, you just sold your Master like that?"

After taking a sip of dark beer, Shiki Jie Li spoke to Mordred with a hint of "dissatisfaction," though it was mostly just a joke. Currently, it seems this rebellious knight, whose reputation in history isn't exactly stellar, is actually...

How should I put it? They're like children who haven't grown up, whether in their way of handling things or their actions, even in the things they like.

About an hour ago, the three of them signed a self-mandatory certificate for each other. Afterwards, Shen Qiu suggested that they have a meal together—of course, Shi Zi Jie Jie Li initially refused.

However, after hearing the word "eat", Mordred's attitude towards Shen Qiu immediately changed completely. Especially after Shen Qiu bought her a set of clothes on the way, the two of them were practically like old friends who had known each other for many years!

Just outrageous.
