The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

It was a rather strange sight.

But Altria didn't have time to think about it, she had to rush to the front to support Iskandar immediately.

after all--

As an Archer of a very high status, Gilgamesh is obviously not that easy to deal with.

But at this moment, she heard a faint call.

That was Irisviel’s voice.

"Saber, stop for a moment."

"Ellie?!"

Altria became a little excited - this was one of the few people she could call a friend.

"Where are you?!"

"I'm in the Holy Grail."

"In the Holy Grail?" Altria was a little surprised.

"Well, it's complicated - but please just treat me as if I'm dead."

"..."

The swordswoman girl remained silent.

In a sense, Irisviel's death was something she could not accept.

That would mean dereliction of duty.

"Don't be so sad, Saber."

"I knew this would happen." Irisviel comforted her friend, "This is not your responsibility."

"Now, I have something to ask of you - that is to smash the Holy Grail!"

"Smash the Holy Grail?" Altria was stunned for a moment, "Are you still in there, kelly?"

"I was in it, but that's why I found it problematic."

"Are there any problems?"

“Yes.” Irisviel’s voice was quite weak, but very firm. “It was cursed by something strange.”

"We have to chop it down right now before anyone makes a wish!"

"If it were allowed to start—"

"There will be serious problems."

"Saber, as for Kiritsugu, I will find a way to make him trust you again."

"My good friend, I leave everything to you!"

Irisviel's voice died away hastily—it looked like she didn't have much time.

But the guidance from her didn’t end there.

Altria looked in the direction of Fuyuki Bridge - that was the guidance from her.

but--

How can we achieve what Ellie wishes for?

Altria looked at the blade in her hand.

Although the Golden Sword of Victory (Caliburn) can indeed release powerful attacks, it itself may not be able to withstand such magic power.

It is very likely that the Holy Grail did not break, but the sword disappeared first.

What should I do?

Altria thought hard about how to solve the problem, but found herself helpless.

She didn't know what to do to achieve the results she wanted.

It was the same feeling as when facing Lancer.

If only Ian was by my side... then there would definitely be a solution.

after all--

He is his own shadow.

Altria's longing grew stronger.

Memories of the past flashed through the girl's mind at this moment.

As the images intersected, she heard words from him.

"Altria, if the King's way can't solve the problem, then let's solve it the way of a human."

"I... believe you can do it."

The girl's eyes became moist—because she knew what to do.

The Victorious Golden Sword (Caliburn) was changing rapidly, and eventually became a worn-out sword.

That was the weapon Ian gave her—the sword named "Mortal".

Altria held up the token of their love.

That was the future he left for her - the other side she would reach in the name of "human".

In the past, he had used it to break the shackles of fate on her.

Tonight, she will use it to chop away the cursed Holy Grail.

“Excalibur E-en—!”

305. Scathach chooses Ian/The Fourth Holy Grail War ends (4k)

This is a blow born out of the girl's longing.

The sword he had given her many years ago now shone with a dazzling brilliance that was no less dazzling than the Sword of Promised Victory (Excalibur).

Altria held it as if she were holding his hand.

“Excalibur E-en—!”

It's not a reversal, but it's a beam attack that's better than a reversal.

This was the most sincere apology that Shadow of the Knight King left for the girl he had desecrated after his death.

of course.

If you want to look into it in detail.

This was aided by Irisviel, who exhausted her life.

As the vessel that retrieves dead Servants in the Holy Grail War, she relayed everything to Emiya Kiritsugu before she was completely corrupted by the evil of this world in the Holy Grail.

She knew she might be the only one who could persuade him.

Fortunately, that life-sapping call did change the magician killer's mind.

As if to fulfill his wife's last wish, he made an exception and gave a second order to Altria.

"Destroy the Holy Grail at all costs."

But in the end, Kiritsugu Emiya still concealed one thing.

That is, his body has actually been unable to bear the burden for a long time.

The negative effects of using the magic "Inherent Time Control" become more and more severe as the number of times it is used increases.

In addition, if one wants to use the Mortal Sword to release the Sword of Promised Victory (Excalibur E-en) to shatter the Holy Grail, it is bound to consume a large amount of magic power.

you can say it this way--

The moment he promised his wife Irisviel, Kiritsugu Emiya knew that he would die here.

But this way, everything will be over, right?

This Holy Grail War was born out of desire;

This Holy Grail War is filled with betrayal;

This Holy Grail War that caused him to lose his wife.

Although there are many regrets that cannot be made up for, at least I tried my best before I died.

Emiya Kiritsugu knelt on the ground, holding his chest tightly with his left hand, trying to hold on a little longer in this way.

Being a partner of justice... is not easy.

The black beam formed by the Sword of Promised Victory (Excalibur E-en) slashed forward.

It was an extraordinary attack that even an outsider could tell at a glance was wrong.

Gilgamesh is no exception.

But rather than being surprised, he felt more admiration.

"At this time, can the king who denies the 'kingly way' still launch an attack of this magnitude?"

"But unfortunately—"

"There is only one outcome to this Holy Grail War, and that is that I will win!"

As he said this, Gilgamesh glared at Kotomine Kirei who was standing beside him.

The latter understood what he meant and immediately used the Command Seal that he had obtained through cheating.

"O most ancient king, please enjoy my offering."

"You are indeed suitable to be my subject."

The corners of Gilgamesh's mouth slightly raised, and it was obvious that he was indeed very satisfied with Kotomine Kirei.

The next moment, countless golden halos appeared behind him.

That was the stubbornness and arrogance of being the oldest king.

He was prepared to forcibly take the Sword of Promised Victory (Excalibur E-en) from Altria in order to prove that he was the strongest in this Holy Grail War.

of course.

There may be an intention to protect the Holy Grail, but that is secondary.

More importantly, it is Gilgamesh's will as the "king" that is acting arrogantly.

If you are the "king" and can withstand the attack of another "king", doesn't that perfectly prove your superiority?

Gilgamesh thought so, and used a number of curse seals comparable to Kotomine Kirei's.

however--

He seemed to have forgotten one thing.

Even if we count Iskandar who was just defeated not long ago.

So far, only four Servants have died in this Holy Grail War.

A Lancer who had been wandering around in and out of various events now joined the battlefield.

"Gae Bolg Alternative!"

The bright dark red spear flew towards Gilgamesh, disrupting the proof of the oldest king.

What's even more terrifying is that Gilgamesh found that he had no way to dodge the arrow - even if he teleported, he couldn't do it!

Its fate is a foregone conclusion.

The process itself is just a replay.

Hiss—!

The Deathly Lance pierced through the armor of the Ancient King, and was then quickly retracted.

"Miscellaneous cultivators!"

Gilgamesh looked angrily towards where the arrow came from, and then saw Scathach, the Lancer.
