~4 min read 729 words

【"Hehe, Master of Saber, your Excellency has slightly ruined my mood. Does your Excellency think I wouldn't have thought you would do this?"】

【At this moment, Semiramis actually inserts herself into the telepathic communication between Sisigou and Mordred, and then forcibly cuts it off.】

【Perhaps to the Empress, this is just a small magic trick that takes a little effort.】

【Sisigou: "How did you block the Command Spell?"】

【Semiramis: "Stupid question, Master of Saber. This is the Hanging Gardens—that is, my territory. This place does not accept your teleportation rituals; I say it doesn't accept, so it doesn't. Territory is exactly such an existence; the Master is the same, it's very simple."】

【Sisigou is speechless; the answer is just that simple.】

【The Command Spell is just a kind of magic, and Servants with 'Magic Resistance' can resist it a little, let alone a god-age magician like Semiramis.】

【But blocking the opponent's Command Spell shouldn't be that simple; it requires understanding the function of the Command Spell and making corresponding preparations in this layer of territory—】

【Right, it's Amakusa Shirou Tokisada!】

【Even for a god-age magician like Semiramis, wanting to thoroughly understand the mode of the Command Spell in a few days is a very difficult thing, but Amakusa Shirou is different.】

【Sixty years of time, intense obsession, plus his identity as Ruler.】

【Although he is not as familiar with magic as Caster, he has had enough time to analyze the Command Spell.】

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "So it was Amakusa Shirou..."

He relaxes slightly; if it were really researched by Semiramis, her magic strength would be too strong.】

Extra Feng Xi: "I say, what do you have to relax about."

Extra Feng Xi: "Amakusa Shirou, a person who is not a magician, spent sixty years thoroughly understanding the Command Spell, while your Tohsaka family has controlled the Holy Grail ritual for more than two hundred years; what results have you researched?"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "..."

Wants to refute, but can't.】

Their Tohsaka family, except for focusing on collecting holy relics, thinking of ways to win the Holy Grail War, and seizing the Holy Grail, has no in-depth research on the Holy Grail at all.】

The Tohsaka family's mind is mostly on researching the manufacture of the Gem Sword, so as to become a disciple of Zelretch.】

Compared to the Einzberns and the old worm, the Tohsaka family doesn't look like one of the three families at all; they are just simple participants.】

【Semiramis: "That's right, Master of Saber, everything is like this. So, give up the Holy Grail and leave; I can still spare your life."】

【Having said that, Semiramis also disconnects the telepathic communication; that was also the last ultimatum she gave Sisigou.】

【But Sisigou doesn't leave, and is constantly brainstorming at the door.】

【If he uses two Command Spells at the same time, he might be able to break the Empress's blockade, but he has already used one, and now there is only one left, and Ruler's whereabouts are unknown, so he can't ask for a supplement.】

【Mordred's vitality is decreasing every second, and Sisigou, who can't think of a way, becomes extremely anxious.】

【Think quickly, the Master's mission is to think, to find a success rate for the Servant who only knows how to act recklessly.】

【One second, two seconds, three seconds—got it!】

【Sisigou has a flash of inspiration and thinks of a method, a method with a success rate of less than one percent.】

【This is the only method he can think of; if he doesn't do this, Mordred will really be done for.】

【Although he can just walk away and give up the Holy Grail War to live, anyway, his participation in the Holy Grail War was just a mission. But—it's meaningless.】

【Because, he has nothing.】

【Leaving here means returning to the life that was no different from being dead while clearly alive.】

【The numb life of constantly carving scars on his body so that his daughter's death wouldn't be meaningless.】

【He was already finished. What is alive is the body, what is dead is hope.】

【Since hope is dead, from now on he will only live a life worse than the remaining years of an old man.】

【Kairi Sisigou is already dead; even if he wishes to the Holy Grail, he cannot be resurrected—】

【However, the half-alive self might still be saved.】 ===== CHAPTER 641 =====
