[FATE] I'm Ginger

That was already, a few years ago.

Even with a real body, Diarmuid wakes up quickly due to the characteristics of the heroic spirit who sleeps less.

The body is still limp and weak, but the magic power is very full.Diarmuid strangely didn't want to use his self-healing ability to solve his physical problems, even if such a state would hinder the battle - but, with this one by his side, he didn't need his own.

Diarmuid moved to his side.

That's another warm limb.There is no thread under the quilt, and the streamlined body is full of strength.A little thinner than Diarmuid, certainly not as strong as him.But the power buried in that body, he learned it with his own body.

"You only slept for half an hour today... won't you be sleepy?"

Gilgamesh spoke.

It is rare for Gilgamesh not to sleep, after all, he is a typical hedonist.He opened a book and was reading it.The ruby ​​eyes that looked at him were very gentle, and under the hazy yellow light, the side face of the King of Heroes was incredibly soft.

"Or is the light affecting you?" He put the book aside and reached out to turn off the light.

"No," Diarmuid shook his head, secretly laughing unconsciously.The self-centered King of Heroes actually sometimes cared about his condition, "I just... can't sleep. I have enough magic power."

Gilgamesh nodded, rolled his eyes, and turned his attention to the book again, but still stretched out an arm and pulled Diarmuid into his arms.

The spearman's face was pressed against Gilgamesh's waist, the lower half of his face was buried in the quilt, and the sound of breathing was barely audible.A few minutes later, Gilgamesh squinted his eyes, "What's wrong?"

no answer.

"It's useless to pretend to be asleep." Gilgamesh sighed, threw the book aside again, and stretched out his hand to grab Diarmuid's cheek, "What's the matter, tell me to make me happy?"

"Gilgamesh!" Diarmuid's voice was distorted because of being pulled, but he knew that Gilgamesh was joking, so he was not very angry. After he slapped the King of Heroes' hand, he hesitated a little one time.

"You said before...my loyalty is nothing but self-satisfaction, right?"

As long as it is the Master who summoned him, no matter who it is, he will offer his loyalty equally.What he was looking forward to was nothing more than a puppet named "Master" who "can make him loyal".

...Now that I think about it...it seems to be true, that is the case.

Am I such a despicable person?I……

"What, you're still struggling with this?" Gilgamesh sneered.

Diarmuid blinked, and a question mark appeared in his head.

"We were enemies at that time, of course it was something hard to hear." Gilgamesh turned off the light and shrank himself into the quilt.Under the moonlight, there was a smile in the crimson eyes, "You still do such trivial things... Diarmuiduo, how cute are you!"

"..."

"Let's put it this way, Diarmuid," Gilgamesh narrowed his eyes, "Heroic spirits will respond to the call of the Holy Grail War, and most of them have wishes to entrust to the Holy Grail. [Make up for regrets in life] This item The thing itself is your wish and the reason for you to respond to the Holy Grail. The 'Holy Grail War', to put it bluntly, is seven pairs of masters and slaves competing for a cup to fulfill your wish, isn't it?"

Diarmuid couldn't see anything else, he could only see the opening and closing of the thin, well-shaped lips in front of him, even the shape of the mouth was so graceful.

"The premise of a Heroic Spirit's 'paying battle power' is to 'get the chance to realize your wish'. Now your wish can be fulfilled without the Holy Grail, and what you earn is your Master, right? ——It's better to say [as A master who fits your imagination] is the duty of the magician who summons you."

"You put in your combat power, and the Master trusts you. This is the right thing to do. You ended up like that and exited in that form. The reason for this is that your Master used you wrongly, which accounted for the vast majority. "

——What kind of feeling is that?

The bright red pupils were filled with starlight, as if filled with stars.

Those eyes... can't you see them again?

【contract】

Half of his body was stained black, and his body was covered in blood from self-injury.But the pair of strange-colored eyes did not fluctuate in the slightest, and the way they looked at him could almost be called "gentle".

【contract】

He mouthed and tossed the phrase at him, along with two chains twisted into a ball.

【Not·is·death·death, but·is·deed·covenant】.

Diarmuid's eyes widened in astonishment.

——Being polluted by the Holy Grail is not death, but merely a contract that Gilgamesh himself did not want to conclude.

Since it is just a contract, there is a possibility of cutting it off.

Coincidentally, when forming an alliance with Medea, the betrayed witch showed her one of her treasures in order to show her sincerity.

It has a lightning-like blade and shines like glass. It seems that the decorative purpose is greater than the practical use, and the short knife is of no use at all.

——The Noble Phantasm that broke all contracts.

##########************##########

The atmosphere in Emiya's house was very gloomy.

This is also impossible, right?Gilgamesh, who could have been regarded as one's own trump card, was actually taken away by the enemy.Seriously, the hero king's force is as strong as cheating, which is really embarrassing.

...I have to say that at this moment, the one with the most complicated mood was Tohsaka Tokiomi.As long as he thinks that such an exaggerated heroic spirit is originally his, it makes people feel... ahem.

And according to Angola, he seems to have started plotting against Gilgamesh ten years ago... From this point of view, the Holy Grail is not only conscious, but also intelligent.

Such an enemy can no longer be described as "troublesome".

Taking advantage of the darkness, Berserker moved most of the daily necessities back to the Emiya residence.On the street, the Heroic Spirits other than Berserker and Saber all maintained their spirit bodies, listening to the discussions of the Masters.However, from Tohsaka's house to Emiya's house, no suitable solution has been discussed.

"Hey, Archer, haven't you encountered such a situation?" Rin tilted his head.

There was a man's slightly mocking voice in the air, and he replied, "No."

That's what I said, but it's not really impossible to think about... If no one thinks of this in the end, then bring it up.A dead horse is used as a living horse doctor, whether it is effective or not will be discussed later.

Back at the Weigong mansion, there is no need to shy away from ordinary people, and the heroic spirits showed their bodies one after another.The emerald light spots fell, and Diarmuid, who was the last to materialize among all the heroic spirits, raised his eyes and asked, "Excuse me, Lady Medea—may I ask if you use the 'Amulet of Breaking Ten Thousand Laws'? Can you sever Jill's contract with the 'Evil of the World'?"

Medea froze for a moment.

"If it's a 'contract'... then there must be no problem," she replied.
