Chapter 529 What Do You Want?
what?
What did he just say?
Little Holy Grail?
But didn't the little holy grail fall during the transfer?When did he—?
No, not right.That "Holy Cabinet" was prepared before the Holy Grail began.What's more, he said just now that this is a "complete little holy grail", which means that it already contains enough souls of servants!
What exactly is going on?

To answer these questions, we must start with the subspecies Holy Grail War.

After the third Holy Grail War, Fuyuki's Holy Grail War system was known to magicians all over the world. In the following 60 years, subspecies Holy Grail Wars were widely held around the world.

Although the crucial core of the Holy Grail is missing, the ritual of the subspecies Holy Grail War is not complete, and the number of servants summoned is only five knights at most.Even if the ceremony is successfully completed, it is impossible to become a universal wishing machine, let alone open the door to the "root".

However, the number of five riders is exactly the condition for creating the Lesser Holy Grail. As long as the rituals constructed by the Yusan Family are not casually changed, the subspecies Holy Grail War will end with the achievement of the Lesser Holy Grail.

Shirou belongs to the Eighth Mystery Society and is responsible for the supervision and recovery of holy relics, including the supervision of the increasingly rampant subspecies of the Holy Grail War.The Middle East where Shirou is active is particularly frequent due to various complicated reasons, which also provides enough opportunities for Shirou to collect information about the Holy Grail War and witness the birth of the Lesser Holy Grail.

In a certain subspecies Holy Grail War, five groups of participants ended up dying together. As a matter of course, this little Holy Grail was collected by the supervisor Shirou and sealed with the "holy cabinet" that had been prepared to prevent the magic power in it. And souls drained, to this day.

"Although it is two different ceremonies, normally they cannot be used in common. However, the production of this small holy grail strictly follows Fuyuki's rules, so it is almost the same as the original small holy grail. Then use my treasure to combine the two The connection can perfectly replace the original little Holy Grail—ah ha ha ha ha, I really admire my brain for coming up with such a perfect idea."

"Stop laughing, it's ugly."

Semiramis poured cold water on the proud Master.

"You said 'replacement' just now, so the souls of Spartacus and Vlad III contained in the original Lesser Grail—"

"—Unfortunately, there is only one small holy grail that matches the great holy grail, and their souls can only stay in that little holy grail forever until they dissipate naturally."

"That is to say, there are only five souls of servants, one short of the omnipotent wishing machine—or as I said, kill that useless writer as a sacrifice."

"woo woo woo woo!!!"

Sensing Semiramis' malicious eyes, Shakespeare shook his head desperately, speechless.

"There is no need for that." Shirou waved his hand, "A follower can be made up anyway. Joan of Arc can perceive the changes of the Great Grail through the privilege of the ruler, and Chiron and the others will not let me destroy the world 'It doesn't matter, you can kill whoever you want at that time."

"That's why you deliberately used the phrase 'destroy the world', and deliberately delayed the time to let them go."

"That's it."

"But let all the nine riders go, isn't the number too much?"

"Without it, I'm afraid they won't dare to come."

"That's not the case. The so-called hero, even if he is alone, even if he knows that he will lose, he will fight for his beliefs."

Karna, who was leaning against the pillar, stared at Shirou with godlike eyes.That heroic stance leaves an overwhelming impression. Shirou even had the illusion of being stripped naked by his gaze.

"That's not clear to you—so you're lying, at least not quite telling the truth."

"Master? What the hell is going on here?" Semiramis' eyes widened immediately, "What the hell are you thinking?"

Shirou, on the other hand, desperately resisted the urge to bang his head against the wall: "I @###@￥. Is your human lie detector so sharp that you can see through even this, and can you play happily together?"

"Sorry." Karna bowed his head and apologized. This is his only personality flaw, because his eyesight is too tricky, and he often ruthlessly pierce the surface and point directly at the essence, which makes people feel too cold, sharp, and difficult to get along with.

"Forget it, I've said it all, you can continue to talk."

Karna did not refuse, and continued: "You give me a very contradictory feeling. You have made a lot of preparations for your wishes, and you are almost in control of everything, but you deliberately relax at critical moments, and even delay time to give the enemy a chance-I really I don't understand what you want? You don't want to use the enemy's hand to stop yourself? Then why are you trying so hard?"

"Just take your time and guess." Shirou didn't say any more, and said too many mistakes in front of Karna.

Karna didn't ask any more questions, and after saying "I'm leaving first, call me if I have something to do", the spirit body disappeared.

"Master—!"

Semiramis wanted to ask again, but was interrupted by Shirou first.

"Hey, Semiramis, is this Holy Grail War fun?"

"Well, interesting, very interesting." Semiramis was slightly taken aback, and then burst into a smile that had nothing to do with coquettishness.

She understood what Shirou wanted to express.What I pursue is just fun, and my master and this Holy Grail War gave her joy beyond imagination, although my master made me angry from time to time, Achilles and Atalanta also had some It's an eyesore, but it's also part of the fun, at least it's much more interesting than the unchanging palace life, but——

"I still want to know your true thoughts."

"Well, now I can only say that I have no intention of losing... the rest is just a puzzle. If you really solve it, I will tell you everything. This is also a kind of fun, isn't it?"

As Shirou said, he turned to look at Shakespeare, who nodded vigorously.Unlike everyone else, he has doubts in his heart, but he never asks the parties involved. He just watches silently, records silently, and enjoys the whole process silently.

"Solving the puzzle? It's also a novel experience for me."

Since she ascended the throne as emperor and took control of the Assyrian Empire, only those servants tried to figure her out, and she never needed her to figure out others, and it would be good to try it occasionally.

"Okay, I promise."

"That's how it is. I'll start the connection and replacement of the Lesser Holy Grail and the Greater Holy Grail right away. You can extract the magic power from the Greater Holy Grail to restore the courtyard. Caster, you can go back to your study and write a book. Joan of Arc organizes a counterattack, and it will probably take more time." Three to five days, this is our last leisure."

"I see." Semiramis glanced at the mess, and activated the space transfer.Although the Great Holy Grail is stored here, it is not the center of the sky garden. The center of the sky garden is always between the kings. Only there can she maximize the power of the entire courtyard.

Shakespeare hurriedly chased the empress away, the poison on his body was still unresolved.

After everyone left, Shirou let out a long breath, and sat on the stone steps in front of the Great Holy Grail without any image, muttering softly:
"It can be regarded as temporarily fooling them away. Sure enough, these heroic spirits who stand at the top of human history do not have a fuel-efficient lamp. I don't know if the same is true on the black side-what do you think?"

Shirou suddenly turned his head and looked at the golden face in the center of the Great Holy Grail with a half-smile.
