Chapter 301

【Siegfried: "..."】

【Waver: "Siegfried, was he persuaded too?"】

【Tohsaka Tokiomi: "After all, he is a Heroic Spirit who protects the people; it's not strange to have this kind of choice."】

【Video continues.】

【When Gordes sent the homunculus flying, Astolfo had also been knocked to the ground by Siegfried.】

【Siegfried: "Why did you help him? Were you asked for help?"】

【"No, I wanted to help him myself."】

【Astolfo said loudly: "Can't a Servant help others? Are you telling me to forget the compassion, glory, and justice I once possessed!"】

【"I am Astolfo, one of the Twelve Paladins of Charlemagne; I will absolutely not abandon that child; I have already sworn!"】

【"..."】

【Astolfo's words pierced Siegfried's heart, and he immediately let him go.】

【Subsequently, the two rushed to the homunculus together.】

【"This is not my fault; I couldn't help it."】

【Seeing the two come over, Gordes subconsciously explained: "I was almost killed; if it weren't for using magic in time..."】

【"Sorry, I came too late; it's all my responsibility."】

【Astolfo picked up the dying homunculus, his expression sad.】

【"..."】

【Looking at Astolfo's appearance, Siegfried immediately thought of his own past.】

【If the Holy Grail is a wish machine, then Siegfried was a living Holy Grail before his death.】

【Because he had overwhelming giant power, he would never intervene at will except to accept people's wishes.】

【Even if it were a good person being bullied, if they didn't ask him for help, he wouldn't help the other party.】

【Even if it were a greedy villain, if there was a request, he would unconditionally complete it.】

【One person cannot save everyone, so he could only respond to those who had needs.】

【This is Siegfried's philosophy, and also his definition of a hero.】

【After obtaining an immortal body, he also lost the excitement for battle; battle completely turned into work in his life.】

【He was lost on the road of life, completely not knowing what his hope and dreams were, and could not describe his future; only emptiness remained in his heart.】

【But at this moment, Astolfo's actions and words deeply touched him.】

【He realized; he finally had something he wanted to do actively.】

【"Master, can you treat that homunculus?"】

【Siegfried looked at Gordes with a serious face and said: "I want to save him."】

【"What kind of joke are you making!"】

【The face-conscious Gordes exploded instantly and roared: "As a Servant, don't make orders to your Master; you just need to obediently follow orders!"】

【Siegfried: "So, you don't intend to save him?"】

【Gordes: "I already said, don't order me..."】

【"Bang!!!"】

【Gordes was directly knocked unconscious by Siegfried with one punch.】

【Rin Tohsaka: "Well hit; I've long found this fat guy unpleasant."】

【Kayneth: "No, his reaction has no problem; most mages are actually like this; I also had this mentality at the beginning."】

【Tohsaka Tokiomi: "That's right, not every mage can rationally view Heroic Spirits."】

【"Damn it! Saber, you, you actually laid a hand on me for that homunculus!"】

【Gordes was angry, but his body was very honest in staying away from Siegfried.】

【"... I, want to save that child."】

【Seeing the situation in the video, Siegfried also realized it just like in the video.】

【Astolfo: "Great, thank you, Saber!"】

【Celenike: "Quiet, Rider!"】

【She was very unhappy now, full of jealousy towards the homunculus in the video.】

【Just an inferior product; even if he awakened self-awareness, so what? Astolfo actually protects him so much.】

【And, Astolfo actually held him in his arms; he had never held her like this.】

【Avicebron: "What do you think, Darnic?"】

【Although he really wanted to take that homunculus to be the furnace core, it seems difficult now.】

【Astolfo, Chiron, and now there's an extra Siegfried; half of the Black side's Servants want to protect that homunculus.】

【Astolfo and Siegfried are fine, but Chiron is not easy to fool.】

【"..."】

【Vlad III thought for a while and signaled to Darnic with his eyes; Darnic nodded in understanding.】

【"After that homunculus wakes up, I will keep him."】

【"But I also hope that the situation in the video doesn't really happen; after all, our opponent is the Red side, and everyone needs to work together and not have internal strife."】

【Astolfo: "That's right; let me take care of him when the time comes."】

【Celenike was instantly so angry her teeth itched.】

【Darnic: "As you wish."】

【"Hmm."】

【Siegfried and Chiron looked at each other and nodded.】

【"Saber of the Black side."】

【Just after Siegfried knocked Gordes unconscious, Jeanne also arrived here in time.】

【Siegfried: "Ruler, huh."】

【Astolfo: "Ruler?"】

【"I have walked on the wrong path again."】

【Siegfried looked at the homunculus who only had one breath left and muttered: "I wanted to abandon someone in front of me who didn't make a wish to me again; I didn't think for myself again, but wanted to hand over the choice to others."】

【"I cannot compensate; rather, perhaps it was I who let him bear a fate of misfortune."】

【"Even so, I, still have a life that should be dedicated to him!"】

【"Wait a minute!"】

【Noticing Siegfried's movements, Jeanne subconsciously wanted to stop him.】

【"Pfft!!!"】

【I saw Siegfried actually forcibly take out his own heart and implant it into the homunculus's body.】

【Rin Tohsaka: "This, this, this..."】

【The scene was too shocking, making her not know what to say for a while.】

【Waver: "Is this, a hero?"】

【Iskandar: "Sacrificing oneself to save others; Siegfried, right? I admire you."】

【Artoria: "You are a true hero, Siegfried."】

【Sigurd: "Siegfried, I, am not as good as you."】
