Chapter 1221

He actually! He actually killed Master Kuzuki!

Even though she was already dead and had lost her protection, Master Kuzuki was no longer a threat, so why did he still have to kill him!

Archer: "Hmph, cutting weeds and eliminating roots; don't you understand this principle?"

Archer: "Forgot, you might really not understand."

Caster: "ε=Angerε=Angerε=Angerε=(o`ω)ノ"

People's Teacher: "(Adjusts glasses)"

Kuzuki Soichiro didn't have any emotions about this.

As someone who started as an assassin, he understood this behavior of cutting weeds and eliminating roots very well.

【"Saber..."】

【Emiya Shirou couldn't say anything more about this, and could only drag his scarred body to quickly support the weak Artoria.】

【"..."】

【Artoria lay on the ground, unable to even crawl, and could only turn her head to look at Emiya Shirou.】

【Although the torture of the Command Spell had ended, our King, having lost her Master, was now incomparably weak, and coupled with being tortured for so long, it could be said that she couldn't even speak.】

【Just then, Artoria saw the iron swords appearing behind Emiya Shirou.】

【Using the last bit of strength in her body, Artoria pushed Emiya Shirou backward, successfully helping him avoid this life-and-death crisis.】

【"What..."】

【Emiya Shirou was also completely dumbfounded.】

【Why, at this time, was Archer still attacking him?】

【Wasn't betraying Tohsaka Rin just a play he was putting on?】

【"Tch, did I miss—"】

【Seeing the attack dodged, Archer curled his lips.】

【Was I a step too slow? It seems I still hesitated.】

Tiger of Fuyuki: "Shirou, you guy is really—"

Fujimura Taiga was also a bit annoyed; how could Archer still be thinking of killing Emiya Shirou even at this point.

Black-hearted Gil, do you really not want to fight anymore!

Waver: "He has probably fallen into a state of obsession."

Shishigou Kairi: "It's better to describe it as paranoia."

Kayneth: "Heh (cold laugh), isn't this very similar to that kid Emiya Shirou? Both of them are stubborn about the things they have decided on."

Caules: "Looking at it this way... it really is."

Househusband: "..."

Archer: "..."

【"Archer! What do you want to do? Isn't the play already over!"】

【Tohsaka Rin said angrily: "Caster has already been defeated, I won't allow you to do whatever you want anymore!"】

【"Not allow? Why must I have your permission?"】

【Archer rolled his eyes at Tohsaka Rin and said: "Did you forget that you are no longer my Master."】

【"Eh?"】

【Tohsaka Rin stood frozen on the spot, unable to refute.】

【The next second, dozens of iron swords fell around Tohsaka Rin, forming a cage of steel.】

【"Whoa!"】

【Tohsaka Rin was startled by this sudden behavior, thinking she was about to be pierced by ten thousand swords.】

【Archer: "Understand now? My contract with you was cut off long ago; even if I want to kill you now, you can't stop me."】

Tohsaka Rin: "This bastard, actually scaring me!"

She must find an opportunity to practice her punches on Archer hard.

【Tohsaka Rin: "Why? Why, even now, do you still want to finish off Emiya Shirou?"】

【Archer: "That's right, I want to kill Emiya Shirou with my own hands."】

【"This is, as a Guardian, my only wish!"】

【Archer's eyes grew colder and colder, forcing himself to become cold-blooded.】

【Everything must be settled today.】

【If Emiya Shirou isn't finished off here, he will definitely be fooled by the Counter Force in the future and become an endless tool for slaughter.】

【It's not that he didn't give Emiya Shirou a chance, but unfortunately, the other party didn't cherish it.】

【Looking at another version of himself who still insisted on that immature ideology, full of immaturity, and constantly courting death, anger rolled in Archer's chest.】

【"Archer, could it be that you..."】

【Archer's situation, however, had a great impact on Artoria.】

【Could this guy, like herself, be regretting the past and wanting to make changes?】

【Archer: "... I said it before, Saber. I, do not have the glory of being a hero."】

【"This is a matter of course; all that remains for me is a boring feeling of regret."】

【"For me..."】

【"Saber, it would have been better if I hadn't become a hero."】

【"..."】

【Artoria gritted her teeth, looking with pity at Archer, who showed a bitter smile.】

【At this moment, she seemed to see herself standing on a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood again.】

【If she hadn't become King, perhaps Britain wouldn't have turned out like this...】

【That's right, having seen so much, her thoughts had already changed.】

【At that time, Britain was indeed difficult to sustain due to many factors...】

【Although the soldiers under her command didn't understand, but... those were normal reactions.】

【She wouldn't blame those people, because everything was her own fault...】

【This is the responsibility a King should bear.】

Artoria: "... Is that so, have I changed..."

It seems that the version of herself in the video has also successfully walked out of it—

Magician of Flowers: "Heh..."

Knights of the Round Table: "King..."

Several Round Table knights wanted to persuade her, but they didn't know what to say either.

After all, what could be said had already been said to death, and there was no point in blaming each other now.

The destruction of Britain had reasons from the world, and it was also a result caused by them together.

That Artoria could walk out of the heavy guilt was already more worth rejoicing than anything else.
