Chapter 668
Amakusa Shiro: "What is it?"
Semiramis: "If things had succeeded, how would you have dealt with me?"
Amakusa Shiro: "Ah, this... I wanted to confess honestly and apologize to you; you should have forgiven me."
Semiramis: "Hey hey, do you think I would accept?"
Amakusa Shiro: "I would try to persuade you; if you still couldn't accept it—then that would be the end of it. I deceived you from the start, so if you didn't accept it, it wouldn't matter if I were killed by you or turned into a puppet."
Semiramis: "I see, you were planning that from the start."
Amakusa Shiro: "I'm sorry, to get to this step, I needed your power no matter what."
Semiramis: "I am a Servant, so this is unavoidable."
Amakusa Shiro: "Very tolerant."
Semiramis: "It won't help to say these things now, and the punishment has already been given."
Amakusa Shiro: "What punishment?"
Semiramis: "You cannot see the future with your own eyes; is this punishment sufficient?"
Amakusa Shiro: "... Yes, it is a severe punishment."
Semiramis: "But since the opportunity is rare, I'll give you a reward."
Amakusa Shiro: "A reward?"
The next moment, Semiramis quickly kisses Amakusa Shiro.
Amakusa Shiro is stunned for a moment and laughs: "This is the reward?"
Semiramis: "If you dare to say you're not satisfied, this time I will really make you take poison."
Amakusa Shiro: "No, this reward is very sufficient."
"Semiramis, thank you. It was good to meet you."
Just like that, the two lean against each other and turn into light spots, slowly disappearing.
"Ah! Jeanne kissed him!"
The women in the group are all blushing; they didn't expect Semiramis to be so bold.
Even Semiramis herself is stunned.
It seems unbelievable, but thinking about it carefully, there is nothing to be surprised about.
Looking back at her lifetime, she experienced two relationships.
The first man was a withered old man; he didn't force anything, only telling her that witnessing his own death was enough. The dances and songs she learned to flatter the man were also laughed at by him, saying that she should just dance and sing to her heart's content whenever she wanted.
That should be a kind of stable love.
The second person was a man who plundered because he fell in love with her.
A man who found it interesting and laughed the more she twisted her face in regret.
That should be a kind of passionate love.
Although she doesn't regret killing him, it doesn't change the fact that she was loved by him.
I didn't expect that after becoming a Heroic Spirit, I would start a third relationship.
Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, this man asked for nothing from her, only saying he needed her power.
What the Empress actually hates most is herself, and therefore, she also deeply hates those men who flatter her.
Amakusa Shiro's behavior of being straightforward and expressing that he needed her power made her very happy.
It's just that she didn't expect that she would really develop feelings for this man in the end.
After all, the Empress's kiss is not given to people casually.
And looking at her final moments in the video, Amakusa Shiro is also in a complex mood.
Love, this kind of thing, he never thought about it, whether in his lifetime or in these sixty years.
I didn't expect that a man like me who only knows how to use people would actually gain the Empress's favor.
Even though I was deceiving her from the start.
On the side of the Holy Grail Hall, Astolfo picks up Laeticia and is about to retreat with Caules, but finds that Sieg hasn't followed.
Seeing Sieg standing in front of the Greater Grail with his back to them, a bad premonition suddenly rises in Astolfo's heart.
"Rider, you guys go; I have to find a way to deal with this Greater Grail."
Astolfo: "What! What do you mean find a way! It's impossible, don't mess around! We can't stop it; it has already started running to fulfill the wish! Although I'm very unwilling, very unwilling, those guys won! But... we are still alive! That's enough, right!"
Sieg shakes his head and says: "Indeed I cannot stop the Greater Grail, but I have other ways to deal with it."
Caules: "Are you going to destroy it?"
Sieg: "I can't do it. But I can take it to a world without people."
"After all, it's impossible to destroy it, and I don't want to do that either. I think someone will come to receive it sooner or later; I imagine by then—it will have become a useless thing."
Waver: "Is Sieg trying to use the Greater Grail to reunite with Jeanne?"
This kind of feeling, if he hadn't joined the Q&A group, he would probably understand.
Even if they become strangers when they meet again.
Kayneth: "Take it to a world without people? What nonsense is he talking about; how could he, a homunculus, do such a thing alone."
Shishigou Kairi: "Should I say, where is he talking about?"
Astolfo: "So Master, where do you plan to go?"
Sieg: "To the other side, which is the reverse side of this world."
Astolfo: "Wait, wait! Master, don't mess around! How are you going to transport it? How are you going to reach that world? There can't be a way!"
"I think, it should be for this matter."
Sieg presses his right hand, and the black scar on it is stirring, demanding he pay the price for the massive energy consumed as Siegfried.
Command Spells possess massive magical energy capable of binding Servants, and can also be consumed in an instant, and Sieg is precisely using this magical energy to become Siegfried. However, this is just a foul move.
The consumption of Command Spells is too massive; every time it is used, the flowing magical energy will pollute the body. If it weren't for the dragon blood that Siegfried couldn't withstand—
Sieg only now understands that what is on his body is not a black scar, but dragon scales.
Borrowing the power of Siegfried, who bathed in and drank dragon blood, this debt he has been carrying finally reaches the time for repayment.
According to his speculation, when the dragon scales cover his whole body, his body should die because it cannot withstand it.
However, he finds that there is another path to take.
The Greater Grail.
If he intervenes urgently before the Third Magic is fully practiced—then a small, really small wish might have a chance to be realized.
Now that he has a perpetual motion machine in his body, he can fully do it.
Siegfried: "I see, dragon blood erosion; I never thought it would be like this."
Sieg: "It has nothing to do with you, Mr. Siegfried; when I used this power, I should have been mentally prepared."
Rin Tohsaka: "Hey hey, the reverse side of the world he mentioned, could it be!"
Tokiomi Tohsaka: "That's right, it's the world where Phantasmal Species live."
Before, Sieg saw the reverse side of the world when Astolfo's Hippogriff transferred; they didn't pay much attention, but I didn't expect it to be foreshadowing.
Indeed, taking the Greater Grail to the reverse side of the world where no humans exist, the Greater Grail's power will not be able to affect the humans of the other world.
