Chapter 625

Artoria: "(Covers face)"

[Archer: "That is exactly so. Even if the judgment is wrong, don't use the Holy Sword, Saber. Otherwise, I will have to resist."]

["At that time, it won't be us who disappear, but the humans around."]

["In this way, the only one who can survive is you, Saber, and that would be meaningless."]

[Having said that, dozens of iron swords flew toward Saber.]

[Matou Shinji stepped in to stop the other party, saying without any respect: "What does it matter? Since the other party is willing to give her away for free, then we will accept it. Anyway, Archer has no Master, and no Master would be willing to sign a contract with someone who has betrayed their Master multiple times; don't pay attention to him, he will disappear sooner or later, and we can receive Tohsaka later."]

["Very smart, Matou Shinji."]

[Archer crossed his arms, sneering at Matou Shinji, and said: "The judgment is very realistic. In a sense, you are more suitable to be a Master than anyone else."]

["Hahahaha! What is it, you really are a man with vision!"]

[Matou Shinji thought Archer was praising him, and suddenly became even more triumphant.]

["It's really a waste. If you had come to rely on me earlier, I would have signed a contract with you. But unfortunately, I don't need other Servants. Although it's a pity, you should just disappear obediently."]

[Archer: "No need for you to say. Also, have you decided? Are you going to fight me, or wait for me to disappear."]

["Of course I'll wait. Before solving Emiya, let's have us help watch Tohsaka."]

[Matou Shinji's eyes burned: "However, she is already my thing now, right? Don't you think it doesn't matter what I do?"]

[Archer said expressionlessly: "Although I promised Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou not to hurt her, the deadline is until dawn. Once the time is up, then do whatever you please."]

["Hahahahahaha—"]

[Matou Shinji looked at Tohsaka Rin happily and said: "Did you hear that, Tohsaka, your Servant has already sold you to me."]

[Archer directly ignored Black-Hearted Gil, who was staring at him, and walked toward the first floor.]

Waver: "...Is this really the King of Heroes."]

[Actually turning a blind eye to Matou Shinji's extremely rude behavior, is this still that arrogant Gilgamesh?]

[Tohsaka Tokiomi would scold him for being double-standard if he saw this.]

[I was respectful to you, and what I got in return was your backstabbing; Matou Shinji is borrowing the tiger's might without any etiquette, yet you turn a blind eye.]

[So Gilgamesh is a masochist!]

[Gilgamesh was so angry at this moment that he wanted to rush into the video and finish off Black-Hearted Gil; his good reputation had all been ruined by this guy!]

[Even if you want to be happy, you have to pick the right person! Choosing a maggot like Matou Shinji, what is that supposed to be! Have you reached such a point of not being picky about food!]

(This is yesterday's, forgot to upload, sorry)

[Time quickly came to early morning, and Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou brought Artoria to the appointment on time.]

["You're here, Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou. You're really too slow."]

[Standing in the ruins, Archer said in a frivolous tone.]

[Watching the man in front of him who had honed immature magic to the peak and realized his own ideals, Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou was silent for a moment and said: "Archer, how is Tohsaka?"]

[Archer: "Her, I left her somewhere in the city; if you're worried, hurry up. Because you were too slow, I gave her to Matou Shinji, who arrived a step earlier."]

["What!"]

[Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou, who was originally feeling complicated and conflicted, felt his anger rise as soon as he heard this.]

[He knew exactly what kind of person Matou Shinji was now, and Archer actually said he gave Tohsaka Rin to the other party!]

[Archer: "I did keep the agreement. I didn't lay a hand on her. So whatever others do to her has nothing to do with me. But, the result is foreseeable."]

[His meaning was already very clear—if you want to save Tohsaka Rin, hurry up and finish me off, otherwise the other party might be eaten clean.]

[However, this time, Archer's plan couldn't keep up with the changes.]

Tohsaka Rin: "Crack, crack (sound of cracking knuckles)—"

[If Archer were in front of her now, she would definitely break all the bones in his body.]

Fuyuki Tiger: "Emiya Emiya Shirou, you've really gone too far this time; I can't even watch anymore."]

[She could see what kind of goods Matou Shinji was, and giving Tohsaka Rin to the other party was like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.]

Archer: "Hmm, hmm (don't care)..."

[Regarding this kind of thing, Archer really didn't care at all.]

[His relationship with Tohsaka Rin before he died could only be counted as friends, and after dying and going through countless years of killing, his heart had long since turned cold.]

[As long as he could achieve his goal, it wouldn't matter even if he sacrificed Tohsaka Rin.]

[The reason why he chose to help Tohsaka Rin win the Holy Grail at the beginning of the Fifth War was also because he had no choice.]

[These Masters of the Fifth War, in his eyes, Tohsaka Rin was still passable.]

[Unfortunately, Tohsaka Rin disappointed him time and time again.]

["Ah, it's alright, kid, leave the girl's business to us."]

[Just then, a blue figure appeared on the second floor; it was Lancer.]

["Just wait and see, I'll go save her right away."]

Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou: "???"

[Seeing Lancer actually coming to help him, Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou's brain went into standby mode.]

[Although the two sides had cooperated before, that was temporary; they should have returned to a hostile state now.]

["Ahem, it's an order given to me by the Master."]

[Lancer said without blushing or skipping a beat: "Originally, I came to help to prevent the girl from dying."]

[Saying this, he bypassed Archer and walked toward the castle, completely ignoring the other party.]

["Oh my, I didn't expect it to feel unexpectedly comfortable to execute. Yesterday's battle was really refreshing. It's rare for me to like my own work."]

["Saber, leave it to that kid here."]

["Lancer... thank you."]

[Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou thanked him solemnly, then said to the King: "Saber, leave Tohsaka to you guys, please save her as soon as possible."]

Artoria: "No, Emiya Emiya Shirou, I will guard you here. Witness your battle."]

[She wasn't at ease leaving Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou alone here, but didn't want to do nothing, so she immediately took out a new trick.]

[Just at the next moment, the Invisible Air wrapped around Lancer.]

[That's right, this thing could actually be given to others as a BUFF.]

["That's fine, Saber can stay here to prevent any spoilers from breaking in."]

[Lancer laughed: "Don't mind it. This is entirely my interest. The orders before this were all annoying chores, but I will follow this order to the end. You too, just Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take care of yourself."]

[He found that the priest seemed to have become a bit normal.]

[It's really interesting, how did he suddenly open up?]

[Lancer didn't know that this was just his illusion.]

Fuyuki Tiger: "Oh! Cu Chulainn is really a good person, he came to help!"

Lancer: "Hahaha, let's forget the word 'good person'; I was clearly acting on orders in the video too."

Tohsaka Rin: "What kind of ghost does that priest want to play again."

Blonde Rin: "However, how could you have the illusion that the priest has become better."

Lancer: "Haha (awkward laugh)..."

[That himself in the video was really embarrassing, actually thinking Kirei Kotomine had become better because of a task.]

[You are too naive!]

Shishigou Kairi: "But I really didn't expect that Invisible Air could be added to others!"

Zabiko: "Does this count as opening a shield for others?"

Artoria: "Actually, it has always been possible, but human bodies cannot withstand the pressure of Invisible Air; only Heroic Spirits can, and I have always fought alone in the Holy Grail War, without teammates I can trust, so..."

Jinako: "So you never had the chance to use it—this is very common. When I play games, some skill items don't necessarily get used until I clear the game."

[After Cu Chulainn left, Artoria looked at Archer and asked.]

[She could not intervene in the battle, but there was one thing that had to be asked clearly.]

["Archer, why do you want to kill Emiya Emiya Shirou? Kill another self?"]

[Archer: "...There is no why. Just like he doesn't approve of me, I also can't approve of him. Simply put, I just don't like Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou."]

[Artoria: "How is this possible? Can't approve? You are Emiya Emiya Shirou; the Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou's own ideals, you who became a Heroic Spirit by carrying out your ideals, why would you have the stupid act of wanting to kill yourself?"]

[Archer: "Why would you think so? Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou in his immature period and I, who am called the Hero Emiya, are different individuals. Otherwise, we couldn't exist here at the same time."]

[Artoria: "So you became a Servant? Because you heard that if you become a Guardian outside the timeline, you might be summoned to the era you lived in..."]

["You are Emiya Emiya Shirou. The figure that Emiya Emiya Shirou has always depicted in his heart and strived to realize is you. But why—"]

["You said Guardian?"]

[Archer smiled self-deprecatingly and said: "You're wrong, Saber. A Guardian is not a protector of humanity, but a cleaner, cleaning up the disasters and messes caused by humanity. This is completely different from the hero I hoped for in my heart!"]

[Artoria: "Emiya Emiya Shirou..."]

[Archer: "I did become a hero. Just as Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou himself hoped, I became a messenger of justice. But the messenger of justice that Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou believes in is someone who 'will not hurt anyone'. It is someone who appears in various disasters and saves those victims. This is Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou's ideal. But—"]

["The duty of a messenger of justice in reality is to eradicate disasters that affect humanity, organizations that will destroy humanity. That is, the work of eradicating evil."]
