Chapter 471

Several people nodded.

The homunculi forged by Yggdmillennia all had causal links similar to Servants between them. Although this connection was relatively weak in degree, even if they weren't consciously conversing, important information such as death could be transmitted regardless of where they were.

Precisely because of this, they chose to believe in Sieg.

Although they lacked personality and their emotions were maintained at a quite dull level, they still had emotions tending to protect him, who had escaped.

Waver: "So that's how it is."

Rin Tohsaka: "What's wrong?"

Waver: "It seems Sieg's emotions have already been transmitted to them through this connection, which is why these homunculi, who have always been like machines, have all started to have their own thoughts."

Jeanne: "Like a savior guiding humanity."

Sieg: "... I am not any savior, nor do I have that qualification."

Jeanne: "..."

Sieg soon calmed down and began working with them.

Breaking the supply tanks, destroying the machines that absorbed magical energy, putting clothes on the rescued compatriots, and carrying them aside to adapt.

Of course, not all those rescued were survivors; victims whose magical energy had been drained appeared one after another.

After all, the previous battle was so intense.

And looking at these dead compatriots, Sieg suppressed the tears welling up in the corners of his eyes, but in the end, he couldn't hold them back.

But there was no time for him to be sad now; they had already sensed that someone was coming.

The gate was pushed open, and the arrivals were the few remaining Masters of the Black Faction: Fiore, Caules, and Gordes.

It seemed only three had come; Darnic and Roche were not there, and Sieg breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, the fewer enemies, the better.

He didn't know yet that Darnic was already gone.

Rin Tohsaka: "The Black Faction is really miserable; now only these people are left, and the only Servant left is Chiron."

Kayneth: "I can only say, it's entirely a leadership problem."

Waver: "Yggdmillennia, this family is probably finished."

This Holy Grail War had clearly been lost by the Black Faction, and with Darnic's fall, Yggdmillennia could really announce its dissolution.

Gordes: "What are you doing here!"

Sieg: "You can see it, can't you? We are liberating them."

For this person who had almost killed him, Sieg subconsciously didn't have a good look.

Gordes was about to erupt, but was stopped by Fiore.

"Why do such things, homunculus."

Sieg: "Being drained of magical energy until death, this is too miserable."

Fiore: "Isn't that the purpose for which they were forged?"

Sieg: "We have no obligation to continue fulfilling this forcibly imposed duty."

"Wait, wait!"

Gordes interrupted them, looking at Sieg with murderous intent, gritting his teeth: "You! You are that homunculus protected by Rider, right! Why, why interfere with us! Your duties are decided by us! You are for magical energy supply! You are for chores! You are for battle! These were all decided long ago! It was decided long ago!"

Sieg: "For the fact that you forged us, we are grateful. But, it should be over now, right? At this point, they shouldn't have anything left to do."

A momentum unconsciously radiated from Sieg, directly causing Gordes to lose his nerve.

Kayneth: "The attitude is okay; at least he didn't deny that they were created by Yggdmillennia."

Waver: "Yeah, at least he recognized his own identity."

Fiore: "Then, what do you intend to do next? Honestly, you, especially the homunculi for battle, don't have much lifespan left; there is simply no time to do other things."

"..."

The homunculi holding battle axes couldn't help but lower their heads.

Unlike the homunculi for chores and magical energy supply, because they were for battle, they had undergone special adjustments, so they appeared quite excellent in terms of combat power, but correspondingly, they had to pay the price of a short life.

Of course, they were probably already aware of this.

Caules: "... Hmm, that's indeed the case. At this point, there probably isn't anything left for them to do."

Fiore: "Caules!"

Even if this was a fact, sometimes it absolutely could not be admitted.

Caules shrugged helplessly and turned his face to the side.

He was just seeing things and thinking of people, seeing the shadow of Berserker of Black in them.
