Chapter 133: Holy Grail War! Begin!

~6 min read 1,112 words

Fuyuki City, a place of eternal peace.

At this moment, in the forest on the outskirts, Waver had already completed his magic circle. He had arrived in Fuyuki City; he estimated that the Heroic Spirits should all appear today, so he had to hurry.

And at this moment, his chanting had reached the final step!

"... Come from the Wheel of Restraint! Guardian of the Balance!"

Hum!

As Waver's voice fell, in the magic circle before him, a red mana storm swept directly over Waver's body! At that moment, Waver felt his body unable to stand, but he still stood firmly. He absolutely could not let his King see his disheveled appearance!

And at this moment, Iskandar's figure finally fully emerged. He looked at Waver before him and laughed loudly:

"Hahaha! To think you could attract me! The Conqueror King, Iskandar! Descends here!"

Iskandar was saying excitedly, but before he could finish, he felt his sturdy body being hugged tightly by a pair of small hands!

"Rider, Rider!" Waver hugged Iskandar before him tightly, as if afraid that Iskandar would run away in the next second.

Tears of frustration flowed from his eyes. He remembered the scenes in the simulation; those were truly etched in his memory.

Twice! A full two times!

He and his King were separated a full two times!

And watching Waver crying bitterly while hugging him, the Great Emperor was also dumbfounded.

What's the situation? What's wrong with this kid? Why is he so excited to see me? Was he shocked by my majestic posture?

"Hahaha! Kid, as a man, even if you encounter something painful, you have to wipe away your tears."

Iskandar patted Waver's thin shoulders, his face full of smiles. "You look not bad, just too thin. But I was about the same as you before. However, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will definitely be as mighty as I am now."

"I... I don't want to." Waver looked at the Great Emperor's muscles with disgust. Admiration is admiration, but he didn't want to become like Iskandar.

And at this time, Waver finally understood that the Great Emperor didn't know him at all yet. Thinking of this, Waver wanted to explain, but he found that whenever he wanted to talk about the simulator, he would cough violently.

"It seems that the existence of the simulator cannot be known by those who haven't experienced it?" The clever Waver reacted immediately.

Such a magical thing, it's no wonder not everyone can know about it. It seems he was chosen because he was lucky enough.

Lucky, indeed lucky. Lin Ye has simulated so many people, and you are the only one who died in the simulation so far.

What? You say Ryuunosuke Uryuu?

Does that count as a person?

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Watching Waver cough violently, the Great Emperor patted his back thoughtfully. "My little Master, your body is too weak. Are you sure you don't want to exercise properly?"

"No need! I have a reason! A reason!" Waver retorted loudly.

Waver tried to calm his excited heart before looking at Iskandar and explaining, "What I say next you might not believe, but everything I say is the truth. Iskandar, I have experienced this Holy Grail War once, and I fought side-by-side with you. It was that time that I became your subject, but that time, we lost. So Iskandar, will you leave with me? I have another set of Command Spells, and my current mana is enough to support you staying in this world, so... King, will you leave here with me?"

Waver spoke with deep sincerity; he truly wanted to see Iskandar leave with him. However, listening to Waver's words, Iskandar lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

Seeing Iskandar like this, Waver panicked.

"Iskandar, do you not believe my words? Everything I said is..."

"No need to say more." Iskandar reached out and blocked Waver from continuing. "I believe you."

"Then... you agree?"

"No! Since that's the case! I cannot agree even more!" Iskandar puffed out his chest, his cloak fluttering in the night wind.

"I, Iskandar, am the Conqueror King! I have never run away in my life! I can fail like a hero, but I absolutely cannot run away like an ant!" Iskandar looked at Waver before him, and at this moment, he was incomparably serious. "Little Master, since you say we failed once, then... with the experience of failure, we will only be stronger!"

"Ah!! Bastard, bastard!" What else could Waver say? He could only look at Iskandar before him and say helplessly, "Fine, since that's the case, I'll follow your lead. Anyway, I still have a set of Command Spells; at worst, I'll just summon you again..."

"No!" Iskandar shook his head firmly. "Wouldn't we still fail this time? Since you have Command Spells, use them quickly! Anyway, I'm using the Holy Grail's mana now; you can summon another Heroic Spirit to help me win! When I win the Holy Grail War and gain a physical body, you'll have another Heroic Spirit companion to help you. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"

"Huh? This... this..." Waver was still unwilling; he still wanted to save this opportunity to resurrect Iskandar. However... looking at Iskandar's firm appearance, he finally had no way to refuse.

"Forget it, I'll go for it."

After Waver said this, he went directly back to the magic circle, and the Great Emperor handed the cloak catalyst to Waver.

"Use this to summon. I'll release the authority of the Army of the King. If only I could summon Eumenes! Although it's also possible to summon Hephaestion, that would also be a good helper."

"Good." Waver nodded. Being able to summon one of the Great Emperor's subordinates would definitely make things twice as effective with half the effort.

Then...

"... Come from the Wheel of Restraint! Guardian of the Balance!"

Hum!!!

In the bright light, another figure appeared in the magic circle. Unlike when Iskandar appeared, his appearance was accompanied by a clear breeze, but the biting aura on his body showed that this person was not simple.

More importantly, this person was slender, wearing a crisp black suit, with long black hair reaching his waist, and a look of extreme exhaustion on his face from working overtime. No matter how you looked at it, he looked like a modern corporate slave rather than an ancient Heroic Spirit...

And at this moment, this Heroic Spirit also opened his eyes and said:

"I am a Servant... Zhuge Liang, you can also call me El-Melloi II. Very happy to meet... Holy crap! What's the situation!" ===== CHAPTER 135 =====
