【"Wha—"】

【Flat Escardos and Gray were suddenly dumbfounded.】

【I saw a pattern shining with red light, depicting a strange shape on the back of Lord El-Melloi II's hand, it was actually a Command Spell!】

Waver: "!!!"

Kayneth: "How is that possible! This kid has already given up on participating in the Fifth Holy Grail War, where did he get a Command Spell?"】

【"How is it possible..."】

【Flat Escardos was shocked: "Lord El-Melloi II, where did you get that Command Spell?"】

【Lord El-Melloi II only replied with one sentence: "The Third Holy Grail War."】

【Flat Escardos was a bit confused, but Gray immediately understood her Master's meaning.】

【Luviagelita Edelfelt, the jewelry box she gave Lord El-Melloi II that she insisted was tuition.】

【She said that the Edelfelt ancestors participated in the Third Holy Grail War, so could this Command Spell be—】

Kayneth: "He actually kept the Command Spell from participating in the Holy Grail War before! How can this... no, this is possible."】

Kayneth, who subconsciously wanted to refute, suddenly thought of Risei Kotomine and immediately shut his mouth.】

Command Spells can certainly be kept, isn't the armful of Command Spells on Risei Kotomine proof of that.】

However, that was kept through the supervisor's authority, the Edelfelt family could actually keep it through their own magecraft, and could even give it to others at will.】

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "..."】

In his family's records, the Third Holy Grail War should have been the Edelfelt's first contact with the Holy Grail system, right?】

The other party's first contact, and they could actually keep the Command Spells for themselves.】

Tohsaka, Matou, and Einzbern are all about to cry, who exactly is the Three Founding Families?】

Kayneth: "But Risei Kotomine, you didn't discover this?"】

Risei Kotomine: "Hehe, this old man is only responsible for supervising that no outrageous situations occur in the Holy Grail War, how many Command Spells a Master has left is not within the scope of management."】

【Lord El-Melloi II: "You just said that I am also one of the Masters, right, Flat Escardos?"】

【"Stop!"】

【Flat Escardos shouted loudly for the first time, raised his hand to fire a spell bullet, and was blocked by Gray with her scythe.】

【Gray's movements were also unprecedentedly agile, because she was about to transform into King Arthur's body, full of unprecedented vitality, but at the same time, her body also experienced intense pain.】

【The divine magical energy emitted by the god Iskandar just after completing his manifestation was constantly burning Gray's magic circuits, and Lord El-Melloi II was probably the same.】

【No, Lord El-Melloi II should be more painful than Gray, after all, his magic circuits are not as tenacious as Gray's.】

【Lord El-Melloi II's whole body should be suffering from hellish pain, every step he tried to approach the god was no different from being burned by the fires of purgatory.】

Caules: "Is there such a situation? But one can't see it at all on Lord El-Melloi II's face."】

Shishigou Kairi: "This also shows Lord El-Melloi II's determination to stop the god Iskandar."】

【Lord El-Melloi II approached step by step, but the surrounding soldiers remained motionless, is it because there was no order from their master?】

【The god Iskandar also remained in the state of being summoned and did not move, just existing there, is the newly born god like this?】

【"Stop! Lord El-Melloi II!"】

【Flat Escardos stepped forward to chase Lord El-Melloi II, and was blocked by Gray who went around to his front.】

【"You once said before that you wanted to manifest in the flesh."】

【A drop of water slid down Lord El-Melloi II's cheek, and he muttered: "Sorry, Rider, I really wanted to realize your wish, but..."】

【He once said before that the reason he wanted to summon Iskandar again in the Fifth Holy Grail War was because he wanted to prove that the Servant's ability was enough to win in the Holy Grail War.】

【This was definitely not a lie.】

【In order to atone for his former naive and stupid self, he must have been thinking this way all along.】

【However, deep in that thought, there was another wish.】

【Flat Escardos attempted to make the god Iskandar manifest again, just because he wanted to use him as a tool. Faker attempted to make the god Iskandar manifest again, because she wanted to worship him as a god.】

【But in the end, his thought was—】

【Lord El-Melloi II said while walking: "So, you are always so impatient. Always running over when I wasn't prepared, and leaving after invading as you pleased. But this time, just honestly wait. Just like usual, laugh rudely, and watch what I am doing."】

【"One day, I will go to the Throne of Heroes, you just need to listen to my story casually, and pat my back, you idiot."】

【"I promise, even if no one believes it, even if I don't believe I can do it myself, even if I am not material to become a Heroic Spirit no matter what. Until my life burns out, I will keep walking towards you. Because, I am your Master... your subject... you are my King... because you are... my... friend..."】

【Speaking of this, Lord El-Melloi II showed an expression of almost crying.】

Iskandar: "Hahaha, that's right kid, that's the spirit."】

Waver: "Really, why is it like a romance drama..."】

Caules: "Why do you seem so happy?"】

Tohsaka Rin: "But becoming a Heroic Spirit, Lord El-Melloi II really did it in the end."】

Lord El-Melloi II: "... Yes."】

Heroic Spirit Lord El-Melloi II didn't have the heart to discourage them.】

His example is probably the only one among countless worlds to become a Heroic Spirit, and a large part of it was thanks to the Prime Minister.】

After all, with his ability, it was really not enough to leave a name on the Record of the Boundary.】

【Lord El-Melloi II: "I order with a Command Spell—"】

【"Stop! Waver Velvet!"】

【Flat Escardos also raised his hand intending to use the last Command Spell, but the next moment, that hand flew off.】

【It was Gray, she cut off that arm with her scythe.】

【"Retreat, Rider!"】

【He said Rider, not the current god Iskandar, but the meaning was correctly conveyed to the thing that had turned into a god.】

【"Ah..."】

【For a moment, Gray seemed to hear a heavy sigh, I don't know if Lord El-Melloi II heard it.】

【The next moment, the Reality Marble disappeared, and everything returned to normal.】

【The god Iskandar actually, really, just disappeared like this.】

【"... Idiot."】

【Lord El-Melloi II raised his head and muttered: "Usually you don't listen to me, but you honestly listened at a time like this."】

Gordes: "Actually, it just retreated so simply?"】

Iskandar: "Haha, I would be so obedient, even I can't believe it."】

Shishigou Kairi: "This should be the bond between Lord El-Melloi II and Iskandar."】

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "Choosing Iskandar to be the god of magecraft, perhaps that was Flat Escardos's biggest miscalculation."】
