At the same time... a crack appeared on it.

Chapter 127 Attila's Wish

Saber's pursuit ended with Kenneth withdrawing his orders.

Because he calmed down and understood the current situation.

The Einzbern homunculi won't arrive until daytime; before then, the disc in front of them will have reached its limit. It simply cannot withstand the disappearance of any more Heroic Spirits.

If any more heroic spirits die, this disc will only burst open.

So... until then, we can only give up for now...

"Alright, Saber, come with me to pick up the Einzbern people. We can't let the Holy Grail be taken by another Master!" After a night of recovery, Kenneth felt that the pain in his body had subsided considerably. However, his magic circuits still felt slightly tingling, and his magic crests were somewhat damaged.

Ultimately, it's a bit too far-fetched for something like a magic furnace to directly connect with magicians.

Kenneth's very life force has been damaged to some extent.

Fortunately, it didn't take long, and these things can be recovered through magic and medicine.

“I understand.” Attila nodded.

"Wait!" The King of Conquerors suddenly interrupted the two, saying, "This time, how about Waver and I accompany you? As for Miss Saber... how about giving her a day off so she can explore Fuyuki City?"

“Conqueror King, I don’t need this kind of relaxation,” Attila replied. “I am the embodiment of destruction; all I need to do is destroy.”

"Haha, saying that once is enough." The Conqueror looked at the package Waver was holding and said, "Here you go! I bought you some modern clothes. If you don't like them, you can use the money to buy your own."

“I’ve already said, I don’t need it,” Attila said, her eyes flickering slightly. “All I need is destruction!”

"Ugh, enough! Seriously, can you stop being so awkward?!" Iskandar said, dissatisfied. "No! If you really just liked destruction, you would have become that giant god when you fought that Caster, right? You... you must have grown tired of it, right? You've grown tired of destruction... What you want is something else, right? Like... something opposite to destruction, something to create? Something to leave behind? That's right."

“You—!” Attila’s pupils contracted slightly.

"What you truly desire isn't anything else, but freedom, isn't it? The ability to walk on this earth, isn't it..." The King of Conquerors looked at Attila and said, "Although this Holy Grail War may not grant your wish, even if it does, it will be me who obtains the body! But... just one day, just one day is fine. Today, let me protect your Master! Is there any situation where I, as a Rider, can protect your Master more safely? No! So go... have fun... spend this day strolling around and enjoying the scenery of this era. Hey—Wave's teacher. Is that alright? Let me protect you..."

"Yes, or rather, it's clearer now. I see... Judging from your performance, what Rider said was true." Kenneth snorted coldly, "What a stubborn Heroic Spirit... But fulfilling a Heroic Spirit's wishes to a certain extent can also unleash greater combat power, right?"

"Haha, of course, of course!" Rider laughed loudly, "Not only will she benefit from completing this task, but my combat power will also increase significantly! No matter what kind of enemy they are, they will be crushed by my wheel of fire and my army's might!"

"Alright, here you go." Weber sighed, took two steps forward, and placed the package in Attila's hands. "Have some fun."

"What are you still standing there for? Rider, weren't you supposed to protect me? Let's go!"

"I understand, kid, let's go!" After saying that, the Conqueror King and the three of them left the magic workshop.

It's as if they've completely forgotten about the magical barrier here and the five magic furnaces...

No... or rather, let's just selectively forget.

Although Kenneth had hidden it, it wasn't impossible for such a large source of magic to be discovered.

But... they still chose to leave.

Only in this way will this awkward girl be able to go out... She has always refused to face her own heart and has been dominated by immense terror, so she can gain a brief period of freedom.

That's how it is...

Even Kenneth, a traditional magician, wanted to see how it would all end.

"Honestly... everyone always talks to themselves without asking for other people's opinions... But... thank you. Thank you, King of Conquerors... thank you, Master... thank you, Waver... thank you... thank you so much."

......

"It seems they've already gone out." In reality, they hadn't gone far. The Conqueror and his men, who had been concealing their presence nearby, watched Attila, who had changed into modern clothes, walk out and said this.

"Alright, I've tried my best to fulfill your Servants' wishes. Now it's your turn to contribute to my victory!" Kenneth said to the King of Conquerors.

"Ah, of course! I never expected... you have such a good side to you. I'm very impressed with you now!"

Kenneth snorted: "This is just a simple judgment. It's a rough estimate based on the personality of the Heroic Spirits as portrayed in that manga. If we try our best to fulfill the Servant's wishes, you'll put in more effort during battle, right? Otherwise, you might just go through the motions without putting in any effort, which would be the most troublesome thing for me."

"Knowing the Heroic Spirit's wish, like now, actually makes things much easier and simpler... If I had known sooner, I wouldn't have wasted those Command Seals! Tsk! It's all that guy's fault... He wouldn't say anything."

"Haha, alright, alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's hurry up and go pick up what you called... the Holy Grail!"

......

“Good morning, First-Class Instructor Kenneth, and the future monarch of the Clock Tower. Hmm... Lord El-Melloi II. And this must be the famous Iskandar, the Conqueror.” The silver-haired girl bowed and said, “Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Mavis Clara from the Clock Tower’s Department of Law and Politics. I am responsible for bringing the ‘Holy Grail’ from Einzbern.”

"Haha, that's right, very insightful!" the Conqueror King laughed.

"Ah, have mercy on me! I'm still far from good enough!" Waver wailed as he hid behind the Conqueror.

Kenneth frowned. "Tsk, it's the Department of Law and Politics... Alright, enough of that. Where is the Holy Grail?"

“Please come this way,” Mavis said, walking ahead to lead the way.

Chapter 128 Eve

Mavis Clara led the way, and soon the group arrived at a room. After pushing open the door and going inside, they saw a white-clad girl lying on the bed.

"Irisviel?"

Weber looked at the person lying on the bed in surprise and said.

“Indeed, she could be called that, but something’s not right,” Mavis Clara said. “According to the information Einzbern gave me, this is a failure. One of countless failures before Irisviel was created. Only one succeeded and was named Irisviel. Most of the others were disposed of, but a few remained. Among these failures, the successful ones survived. They were kept as prototypes for the next, and the one after that, androids that might be created. And this is one of them.”

"So you mean it's a failure, right?" Kenneth said. "There's only one success story, and that's Irisviel. She's the android who failed and was eliminated during her journey as Irisviel."

“That’s absolutely right.” Mavis Clara nodded and smiled. “That’s why, although she can be used as a minor Grail, she doesn’t have the ability to act, or rather, she wasn’t given that ability. She has no self, no consciousness, no life. She simply exists as a candidate for the minor Grail. She was prepared in case Irisviel breaks down.”

'That's right...this is the magician...' Webber looked at the girl on the bed, clenched his fist, and said, 'Excuse me, Rider, Professor Kenneth, I'll be going out for a bit.'

“Go ahead,” Kenneth said, glancing at him. This kind of thing was commonplace for magicians.

If you give up over something so small, you don't deserve to be a magician.

"Alright, so now we can just take this Holy Grail back, right?"

“Yes, and this too.” Mavis Clara placed a small golden cup, which looked like the Holy Grail, on the table beside her and said, “This is a seal. As long as this is placed on her, the seal will naturally break. At that time, she will begin to activate the function of the Lesser Grail, that is to say—connect to the Greater Grail and absorb the defeated Heroic Spirits into it.”

......

"Japan... Fuyuki City..." Attila walked through the streets, feeling an unprecedented sense of relaxation: "Ah... when will this dream end..."

She wasn't saying this in the hope that the dream would end right now.

On the contrary, it is exactly the opposite.

She doesn't want to wake up... It's good this way...

Every minute, every second, every moment is a special experience for her now—something she can't experience normally...

Participating in this Holy Grail War as a "Heroic Spirit" is... not bad.

Although she has never used her full strength... Now that she has arrived here through the summoning of Heroic Spirits, theoretically she can connect with her original body on the moon and transform into a giant god.

But... this is the only thing she would never do, no matter what.

She didn't want to cause any more damage.

But... there's nothing that can be done about it. Even if I eventually obtain the Holy Grail, can my wish for freedom truly be granted?

No...it can't be done.

She's merely a creation of a civilization, and what she's destroying is civilization itself; such things have no effect on her. Once Yusei's orders are given, she will become the embodiment of destruction. Peace... will only last a few days, only these fleeting moments.

For her true self, who had spent fourteen thousand years in the stone chamber, it was nothing more than a fleeting dream.

But... ah, that's enough.

That's enough...

She felt content just walking around Fuyuki City... wandering around, looking at everything.

Everything was so new and exciting.

Everything about it is so interesting.

Then...

"We meet again, Attila." Kurokawa Kazuya, who was passing by, saw her coming over and greeted her.

"Caster!" Attila became alert, but not of Kurokawa and Miyako, but of the warrior he had summoned who knew nothing of death.

If we look at it that way alone, he seems to be the most suitable person to be the embodiment of destruction.

But that's not right... She understood just from that battle, from the clash of swords. That man was simply "fighting."

His purpose in fighting was destruction. His purpose in fighting was simply to fight.

Therefore, he will not attack the weak. Therefore, he will not attack those who have lost their fighting ability.

This is her opinion...

But who exactly is this Caster in front of us?

Attila's only feeling about Kurokawa and Mi was, "He knows a lot." He knows about himself, knows his own body... so... that means...

"A remnant from fourteen thousand years ago?" Attila said to Kurokawa Kazuya, which made sense. The person in front of them was likely someone who had escaped from the clutches of Sefar fourteen thousand years ago.

She doesn't have all the memories of the original body, because ultimately she is just a dream of the original body.

However, one thing is certain: fourteen thousand years ago, apart from the Holy Sword Wielder who ultimately brought her down... no being could rival her, including the civilization she destroyed, the Age of Gods...

"No, you're wrong. I'm not someone from 14,000 years ago." Kurokawa Kazuya shrugged. "Let's not talk about that anymore. Don't you like this kind of thing either? You look like you're just out for a stroll."

“You know me very well?” Attila asked.

“I know a little bit.” Kurokawa Kazuya nodded: “Something like Yusei’s vanguard… But don’t worry, even if Yusei is going to descend upon this world, it won’t be anytime soon. You still have a long period of leisure time. When you have nothing to do, you can come out and participate in a couple of Holy Grail Wars to relax or something, just like now.”

No... I don't need it.

"Alright, do as you please... Now is not the time for fighting. I've already fought you once, and I'm not interested in that kind of thing anymore... I see, is that so... Okay, I'll fight you again sometime." Kurokawa Kazumi paused halfway through his sentence, as if he understood something, and continued, "But, of course not now. Now... how about it? Do you need me, the Caster, to accompany you?"
