Whose Xingyue looks like you?

"Saber, destroy the Holy Grail."

"You may not be able to afford the price, Emiya Kiritsugu."

Although I have made all the necessary preparations and even moved all the people away.

Alas, I am really kind, but it’s a pity that your wife’s soul has become my collection.

Bai Ming complained calmly in his heart.

"I can handle it."

"Don't think about it for a moment?"

"Follow orders, Saber."

"Well then, welcome your end, Emiya Kiritsugu—"

The Sword of Promised Victory appeared in Bai Ming's hand, and then the breath of stars gathered on the blade.

The Holy Grail turned to ashes before the cannon that was like a wild horse running away.

An ominous black and red hole appeared in the sky, or rather, a black and red "sun"—after all, most of the sky was conspicuous because of this hole.

An unknown black substance poured directly out of it.

When Bai Ming saw Emiya Kiritsugu's terrified and helpless expression, he heard his sarcastic remarks.

"I told you from the beginning that there's no need to fight for something like this. Furthermore, the Holy Grail is actually the terminal that prevents that thing from coming out, and you chose to destroy it. In other words, you're the one who ultimately caused all this tragedy."

Anyway, he could only destroy this half of Fuyuki Shinto, and he had already transferred the lives of this half.

The rest was left to Kiritsugu Emiya to suffer on his own, so Bai Ming shattered his own spiritual base without any regrets, cutting off Kiritsugu Emiya's hope.

Tōsaka Tokiomi felt a headache. It turned out that what King Jocelyn was referring to when dealing with the aftermath was not the body of Kotomine Kirei, but the things happening in Fuyuki Shinto?

◇

The sunset sky was blood red.

The land as far as the eye can see is also blood red.

The corpses lying all over the ground once believed in a girl, supported her as king, and sang victory songs together.

In the end, they were split into two factions due to the traitor's conspiracy, and they became hostile to and killed each other, and then fell together on this battlefield.

This is the place where King Arthur died, Camlann Hill.

"This is the place where King Arthur died, Camlann Hill, a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood."

A slightly frivolous voice appeared in the place that should have been deserted.

Bai Ming, wearing the ceremonial attire of the Chaldean Master, looked at the girl who was half-kneeling on the hill of corpses.

After hearing the voice, the girl looked at the cheerful young man standing in the sea of ​​corpses and blood.

"Unfortunately, in order to prevent the Little Ice Age and the decline of the Age of Gods from affecting my stubborn Lily, I abandoned the country to Constantine I early on, and then committed suicide with Lily."

"Jocelyn, why are you here? What was the outcome of the Holy Grail War?"

"The Holy Grail is contaminated, so there's no result. Now I just threw Lingji's body aside and came out with my own body, so naturally I can go wherever I want."

"Are you here to laugh at me?"

The King Arthur of this world is not the same as the King Arthur of Bai Ming's world.

Although the Artoria here can read Bai Ming's records from the realm record tape, her essence is still different from the Artoria in Bai Ming's world.

Before her death, Altria exchanged a contract with the "world" to obtain the method to obtain the Holy Grail, in exchange for her soul after death to become the guardian.

In other words, Artoria's time has stopped. As long as she fails to obtain the Holy Grail once, she will be dragged to the moment of death, and the cycle will continue.

Bai Ming replied, "It's the same face after all, so I came to see if Altria looks good when she cries."

Altria did not respond. At this moment, she had keenly noticed that the man in front of her was different from the one who appeared as a servant.

Bai Ming, who appears in a linked form, actually influences each other with Gilgamesh of the Archer class. Gilgamesh's personality and Bai Ming's personality are both mixed with some of the influence of each other.

Chapter 16: Bai Ming is accompanying Altria at Kalam Hill

When Artoria heard Bai Ming say this, she not only did not cry, but instead felt vaguely annoyed.

The man's tone was just as irritating as Merlin's.

"You scum."

Altria became angry, but Bai Ming was very calm.

"You, who can read my specific deeds, should never have made such an evaluation of me. But I'm glad you're not sad. Although we're not in the same world, you're also called Altria, and I should pay some attention to you. Altria, I think that bastard Merlin only talked about how to be a king, but didn't tell you what a king should do."

"Now that things have come to this, do you have anything to say to me?"

Artoria staggered to her feet on the Hill of Kalam, wanting to point the sword in her hand at Bai Ming, but she lost her balance and rolled into Bai Ming's arms.

"Well...you're a little shorter than Lily over there, and your breasts are smaller. Also, my new clothes are dirty."

"answer me."

"I don't have anything to teach you. The only thing I can tell you is this: As a king, the most basic thing you must do is not feel any regret for your actions, especially among a group of Knights of the Round Table."

Bai Ming spoke gently, "Even if you make the wrong decision, both Agrawen and Bedivere will come to dissuade you. Even that mean-spirited Kai will tell you that even if you don't do so well, every Knight of the Round Table acknowledges that your path is not wrong, right?"

The tone was gentle, but the actions were not gentle at all.

Bai Ming pushed Altria away from his arms. You know, the master's ceremonial uniform of Chaldea is pure white. Bai Ming was looking at his ceremonial uniform covered in blood with heartache.

"But... Mordred..."

Altria wanted to say something more, but was immediately covered by Bai Ming's gentle face: "That's a pure idiot. Until she gives up that unrealistic wish, I will beat her every time I see her."

Merlin was also beaten along the way.

"so…"

"If you don't obtain the Holy Grail and fulfill your wish, or if you don't let go of your regrets, you'll never be able to leave here, right?"

Bai Ming said, "I think your face still has some humanity."

A huge amount of magic crystals gathered in Bai Ming's hands, and finally became a golden cup. "This is the Holy Grail. Take it and your wish will come true. Then a singularity or a loss belt will be formed, and I will conquer it."

Altria was about to reach out to receive this "gift" from her husband from another world, but after hearing Bai Ming's words, she immediately retracted her hand, her tone subtle:

“…That’s not how you comfort people.”

"I'm really sorry. I've never been good at comforting or advising people, so I only give you one chance."

Seeing that Artoria did not have the courage to take the Holy Grail, Bai Ming directly took the Holy Grail back and walked on the vast Hill of Kalam. Artoria followed Bai Ming without saying a word.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Bai Ming found a relatively clean place to sit down, and Altria also sat next to Bai Ming.

The two of them said nothing, just looking at the bloody scene.

Finally, Altria couldn't bear it anymore.

"What on earth are you doing here?"

"Just came to keep you company."

Altria didn't believe that Bai Ming would be so kind, but in the end she said nothing.

Almost no one can come here except her, and she doesn't know how the man in front of her got here.

"If I use the Holy Grail of Fuyuki City—"

"I said, that Holy Grail is contaminated, and no matter which Holy Grail you use, the final result will be the same."

"..."

Altria looked downcast.

"But if you want to give it a try, I can accompany you."

"reason."

"Because you are Altria, and every Altria deserves my love and affection, not to mention that you are different from the Altria I know."

It's a very strange possessiveness.

Artoria instinctively wanted to complain, but in the end, she said nothing. The aura emanating from Bai Ming made her feel a little relieved. Bai Ming said, "I will stay here with you for a long time, until I summon you for the next Holy Grail War. During this time, I think you should think about anything you want to talk to me about."

Altria nodded.

finally--

"I want to know how many people's thoughts and suffering I have ignored while I was single-mindedly focusing on finding a way to save the country."

"You actually want to talk to me about your time in office?"

Bai Ming was greatly surprised by this. The blonde girl nodded and said, "I gambled on my dignity, believing that I had always lived uprightly and honestly, but I ignored the fuse that led to this devastating outcome..."

Artoria began to tell the story, and Bai Ming listened quietly, like a close older brother - to a certain extent, he was indeed doing this, and for this he even logged into his Servant Manager, which he hardly used.

Time here has lost its meaning. In what is equivalent to eternity, Artoria waits for the call, but when the call comes, she fails. In this place where time has no meaning at all, she always sees Artoria in different world lines responding to the call like herself, and then failing.

She suffered mental torture time and time again.

Until she saw a being named Jocelyn violently liberate a sad being named Altria Pendragon in one of the worlds.

Artoria who did not feel pain because of the road to saving the country and did not need to experience those pains, Artoria who did not experience the disintegration of the Knights of the Round Table, Artoria who could easily throw the entire country's affairs to Jocelyn even if she did not want to be king after drawing her sword.

Even if the decline of the Age of Gods is inevitable, Altria can hand over the mess to a suitable successor with peace of mind.

She admitted that she was a little envious.

But, after all, she is Altria from another world line.

But what she had was ultimately a deserted place where she was the only one there.

There is no one to listen, no one to talk to.

When Bai Ming arrived, she was undoubtedly surprised. No matter what he came for, at least there was someone who could help her alleviate the bottomless despair that was deep in her heart.

As the story continued for a long time, Artoria finally couldn't hold back her emotions anymore and started sobbing.

"Woo..."

When I first heard the tears, they were just soft sobs. Past events flashed through my mind one after another. Finally, the sobs turned into whimpers, and then the whimpers turned into loud crying.
