~6 min read 1,101 words

【Gilgamesh remained silent, using his attitude to express his answer.】

【Artoria then said solemnly: "If one is a king, one must be aloof."】

【"It seems none of you understand..."】

【Iskandar shook his head and laughed, saying: "Next, I shall let you see what the true spirit of a king is!"】

【Suddenly, a hot wind of unknown origin eroded the real world, blowing so hard that people could not open their eyes.】

【After the wind stopped, everyone discovered they were already standing in the middle of a desert.】

【The scorching sun baked the earth; as far as the eye could see, there was no shelter, only a vast, boundless desert of yellow sand.】

Artoria: "This is a Reality Marble!"

Artoria: "King of Conquerors, I did not expect you to possess a Reality Marble as well."

King of Conquerors: "Hahaha, it does not stop there."

King of Conquerors: "Watch closely, my great army."

Waver: "What are you so happy about!"

Waver: "In this way, your trump card is exposed."

King of Conquerors: "It does not matter; I do not care about such trivial things."

【Iskandar laughed proudly: "This is the land my legion once traversed, a landscape branded into the hearts of the warriors who shared joys and sorrows with their king."】

【In the astonished eyes of the group, figures began to appear one after another in the distance of the desert behind Iskandar.】

【In less than a moment, a mighty host of soldiers gathered behind Iskandar.】

【The uniform phalanxes of the legion and their strong, steady marching steps all demonstrated the formidable power of this army.】

【These soldiers included infantry, cavalry, foot soldiers, and generals.】

【But without exception, they were all Iskandar's subordinates.】

【These were the elite legions that followed Iskandar through his southern and northern campaigns during his lifetime.】

【In this army were Ptolemy I, founder of the Ptolemaic dynasty of Egypt; Seleucus I, founder of the Seleucid Empire; Antigonus I Monophthalmus, founder of the Antigonid dynasty; and Lysimachus, founder of the Lysimachid dynasty.】

【They had all become Heroic Spirits, and some among them even surpassed Iskandar in martial prowess.】

【After Iskandar's death, these men spent nearly twenty-one years splitting up and seizing the vast empire Alexander had conquered, each becoming a king in their own right.】

【But when Iskandar issued the call for the legion to assemble once more, they did not hesitate; they all donned their armor and excitedly followed their king, returning to the battlefield once again.】

【It is only a pity that among these people, one person was missing: Hephaestion.】

【This most loyal subordinate of Iskandar, because of his hatred for the betrayal of his former colleagues, swore never to associate with them again, which is why he refused Iskandar's call time and time again.】

【However, Iskandar did not care about this at all.】

【Even though among these people, there existed those who had killed his descendants.】

Kayneth: "To think he could summon a great army! How is one supposed to fight this!"

Although he had formed an alliance with Waver and the others, he did not know about Iskandar's Army of the King.

The other Masters were also shocked by this scene.

Even Artoria had no confidence in breaking Iskandar's Army of the King.

【Iskandar using a great army to deal with the Hundred-Faced Hassan truly felt like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.】

【With just one charge from the great army, the Hundred-Faced Hassan was wiped out without any power to resist.】

【Assassin, sadly exits the stage.】

【Subsequently, the yellow sand filling the sky vanished, and the moonlight reappeared in the sky.】

【The Reality Marble was dispelled, and everyone returned to the courtyard of the Einzbern castle.】

【The correct option is C.】

【Congratulations to Extra Feng Xi, King of Heroes, Hundred-Faced Hassan, Tohsaka Tokiomi, Priest Kirei, Matou Kariya, Zhang Jiao, Red Hare, Qin Shi Huang, and Sigurd for obtaining 5 Saint Quartz.】

【Gilles de Rais gives up on this round of answering.】

【All others answered incorrectly and had 1 Saint Quartz deducted.】

Waver: "Sigh, I thought it was Gilles de Rais."

Rin Tohsaka: "Me too; after all, that bastard is so detestable, I thought he would be dealt with first."

Kayneth: "Who would have thought Tohsaka Tokiomi would play so far outside the script, sending the Hundred-Faced Hassan to their deaths."

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "Is that my fault?"

【The first question is over; now, the second question begins.】

【This question is a three-part Q&A; the video will feature three consecutive questions, each with a 5-minute answering time, and all group members can rush to answer.】

【Answering correctly earns 3 Saint Quartz, answering incorrectly deducts 1 Saint Quartz; if no one answers correctly within 5 minutes, it counts as void.】

【Please pay attention to the video.】

【It is the old actor, Fuyuki Bridge, again; this time the protagonists are the perverted duo.】

【"Old man, I'll leave it to you to create a masterpiece that would even frighten the gods."】

【Uryuu Ryuunosuke stood by the bridge, shouting to Gilles de Rais, who was walking on the surface of the river.】

【"Ah, look forward to it, Ryuunosuke-kun; this is the coolest performance."】

【Gilles de Rais gave him a kind smile, held the Prelati's Spellbook, and began the ritual.】

【One could see a whirlpool slowly appearing in the water beneath his feet, growing larger and larger.】

【Uryuu Ryuunosuke said excitedly: "What happens next will be very interesting."】

Gilles de Rais: "Ah! Ryuunosuke-kun! I will definitely kill Extra Feng Xi to avenge you!"

Waver: "This guy really has nothing else to say."

Artoria: "What is this guy trying to do?"

Kayneth: "Who knows, but it is definitely not a good thing."

Zhang Jiao: "Looking at his appearance, he should be summoning something."

Rin Tohsaka: "Does this guy have any other summoned beasts besides that disgusting sea monster?"

【On the other side, Waver and Iskandar were walking along the road for a stroll.】

【Waver was being sulky at this moment.】

【Because he felt that being with Iskandar, even if they won, he would have no sense of accomplishment.】

【Iskandar, however, saw the confusion in his heart and smiled to comfort him.】

【"See that sea? The endless sea is my goal."】

Waver: "The endless sea, so that's what it meant..."

He finally understood what the sea that appeared in the video the day before yesterday meant.

King of Conquerors: "Hahaha, little Master, so you never had a goal all along."

Kayneth: "Hmph, acting on impulse; as expected, just young and impetuous."

【Just then, Iskandar stopped in his tracks with a solemn expression.】

【He felt a massive amount of magical energy suddenly appear.】
