Chapter 137

~6 min read 1,037 words

"My King! Knight of the Round Table Lancelot! Requests to return to his post!"

"I, Artoria, welcome your return, Sir Lancelot." Artoria’s voice rang out, and as her voice fell, Lancelot’s figure completely turned into points of light and disappeared into the sky.

Berserker, Lancelot, departed.

"No!!"

In a dark corner, Kariya Matou leaned against the wall in pain; his last hope was shattered. He had originally thought he could steal the Lesser Grail by taking advantage of everyone relaxing, using Lancelot’s ability. Now it seemed... he had underestimated Lin Ye’s terror.

"So... am I destined to never surpass you? Tokiomi Tohsaka..."

Kariya Matou looked up toward the Tohsaka residence, where the person he could never catch up to in his life resided.

Kariya Matou didn't know that at this moment, at the Tohsaka residence...

"Ah!!"

Tokiomi Tohsaka fell into a pool of blood. He looked blankly at the figure behind him.

"Kirei... why?"

Thump.

Until his death, Tokiomi Tohsaka didn't understand why Kirei Kotomine wanted to kill him.

And looking at Tokiomi Tohsaka in the pool of blood, the corner of Kirei Kotomine’s mouth lifted happily.

"Hehe..."

Pleasure, is this the feeling of pleasure?

Kayneth’s Magecraft Workshop.

"Berserker has departed." Kayneth looked at Waver before him and said.

"Mm." Waver also nodded. "So, now it's just us, Archer, and Lin Ye’s three factions left, right? What should we do next?"

Waver looked at Lord El-Melloi II; at critical moments, one should still listen to him.

"Lord El-Melloi II, what do you say?"

Hearing Waver’s words, Lord El-Melloi II just thought for a moment and said, "We all know the polluted Holy Grail is no longer important, and we have no need to compete with Gilgamesh. However, Lin Ye still has an unpolluted Holy Grail, right?"

Hearing Lord El-Melloi II’s words, Waver’s eyes lit up. At the previous banquet, Saber did give Lin Ye an unpolluted Holy Grail. Surely that Grail could also give Iskandar a physical body, right?

"But... no, that Holy Grail is Lin Ye’s private property! How is us going to take it any different from being robbers!" Little Waver still had principles.

However, just as he finished speaking, Iskandar slapped him hard on the shoulder. "Hey! What do you mean robbers? Taking the Holy Grail amidst the song of victory, this is the Conqueror King’s plunder!"

Waver...

"It's the same thing!"

"Of course it's different! Conquer without destroying! Dominate without humiliating! Making Lin Ye willingly hand over the Holy Grail—this is conquest!"

Hearing Iskandar’s words, Waver sighed helplessly. Fine, whatever makes you happy, since you're the King.

However, how could they make Lin Ye willingly hand over the Holy Grail?

"Lin Ye! Hand over the Holy Grail! After I conquer the world, I'll give you one-tenth of it, how about that!"

At Einzbern Castle, Iskandar, who had come early in the morning, looked at Lin Ye, who had just finished washing up, and said loudly.

Hearing Iskandar’s words, Lin Ye rolled his eyes at him.

"What? Not enough? I didn't think you were a greedy person too, Lin Ye! Hahaha, then how about one-fifth!" Iskandar patted his chest heartily.

Seeing Iskandar like this, Lin Ye was even more speechless. "You're dreaming, Iskandar."

"Huh? Still not enough? Then one-fourth? One-third? Half! This is my bottom line!" Iskandar said loudly.

However, the louder he spoke, the more Lin Ye’s head hurt.

"No, Iskandar, do you understand? It's not that I think half the world isn't worth a Holy Grail; I just simply think it's impossible for you to conquer the world! You're drawing me a pie here, do you think I'll agree to you?"

Lin Ye truly didn't think Iskandar could conquer the world. If Iskandar just followed Waver back to the Clock Tower, perhaps he could live a normal life due to the El-Melloi family’s status, but if he wanted to conquer the world...

Seal Designation, look it up.

Don't think that just because Iskandar is an exceptional Heroic Spirit, the Clock Tower can't do anything about him. Although the Clock Tower is the last of the three major magecraft organizations, it is more than enough to deal with one Heroic Spirit.

Seeing Lin Ye not trust him like this, Iskandar couldn't help it anymore. He had always believed he could conquer the world. "Sure enough, you can't get the Holy Grail just by negotiating. Lin Ye! Show your weapon! Let’s have a real fight! If I win, you give me the Holy Grail; if I lose, I’ll take everyone and leave Fuyuki City directly, how about it?" Iskandar finally chose force.

No helping it; compared to negotiation, he preferred using his fists to solve problems.

But hearing Iskandar’s words, Lin Ye’s eyes widened.

"No... haven't you seen my Ea? Didn't Waver tell you that your Ionioi Hetairoi is useless before Ea?"

Lin Ye truly didn't know who gave Iskandar the courage to duel him.

And beside Iskandar, Diarmuid also stood out. "Lin Ye, perhaps Iskandar is not your match alone, but if you add me, do I have the strength to fight you?"

Add you?

Lin Ye glanced at Diarmuid and didn't speak.

Actually, adding you doesn't make much difference. Besides, with the God-Slayer B I just obtained, you two sons of gods will probably be packed away in one sword strike before me.

And while Lin Ye didn't speak, Artoria also stood out.

"Bullying the few with the many is not the way of a knight. If you want to grab the Holy Grail, come and grab it. The Holy Grail was given to Lin Ye by me; if he doesn't want to give it to you, no one can take it."

Artoria stood directly beside Lin Ye. Not just Artoria, Jeanne and the Hassan also stood out.

Bullying the few with the many? Then look at who has more people.

For a time, the atmosphere of the entire Einzbern Castle immediately became serious.

Watching this scene, Lin Ye also stood out and said:

"Since you want the Holy Grail, come and try to grab it. Group fight or single duel, you decide."
