Chapter 227

"That's why I'm here to pick up Illya, isn't it."

Emiya Kiritsugu said lightly, "I didn't intend to swallow the Holy Grail alone; it's just that the thing has already been polluted and can no longer be used."

"Polluted? You don't even bother to draft a better lie."

Acht clearly would not believe Emiya Kiritsugu's one-sided story.

Emiya Kiritsugu: "It's true. A demon god named Angra Mainyu was sealed within the Holy Grail, and it has already been polluted by the other party."

"Nonsense!"

Acht shouted, "I personally participated in the last Holy Grail War, and there was nothing wrong with the Holy Grail then. How could a demon god suddenly appear when it's your turn?"

"What Angra Mainyu? I've never even heard of it."

Although he had personally summoned Angra Mainyu, Acht didn't know its name at all.

"Enough, since you can no longer be counted on, we must take action ourselves."

Acht said in a deep voice, "It's already too late for this Holy Grail War. Illya must remain in the Einzbern family to participate in the next war on behalf of the family."

Emiya Kiritsugu: "Patriarch Acht, I didn't come here today to discuss this with you, but to notify you."

Courtesy before force; Artoria, standing to the side, dispelled her spirit form and appeared.

"Saber!"

Acht was startled and scolded Irisviel angrily, "Irisviel, do you want to betray the family!"

It was clear that he knew Artoria's Master was Irisviel, not Emiya Kiritsugu, so he wanted to pressure Irisviel. ===== CHAPTER 229 =====
