"King of Conquerors, someone like you who only cares about yourself will not understand my beliefs. You are just an overlord who is blinded by desire!"

Saber shouted sharply, and Rider's eyes widened immediately after being scolded.

"A king without desires is worse than a vase."

Rider's angry shouts and his huge body made him very intimidating at the moment, but he only scared Waver and Irisviel.

"Saber, you just said "sacrifice yourself for your ideals." Indeed, you used to be an incorruptible saint, so holy that no one can match it, but who wants to expect to be martyred for his ideals? And who would think about the so-called saint day and night, only to It can comfort the people, but it cannot guide them. Only by displaying desires and praising the ultimate glory can the country and the people be guided to the right path."

After draining the wine in the glass, the conquering king continued to pick up Gilgamesh's wine and poured himself another glass, and then added.

"As a king, you must have stronger desires than anyone else, be bolder than anyone else, and be more irritable than anyone else. He should be a human being that contains both purity and turbidity, and is more real than anyone else. Only In this way, the ministers can be impressed by the king, and the subjects can have such longing in their hearts as "It would be great if I were the king!"

"With this kind of governance...then where is the justice?"

"No, there is no so-called justice in the way of a king, so there is no regret."

"..."

His assertion was too straightforward, and Saber's lips trembled with anger.

Both take making people happy as their basic criterion, but their ideas are far different.

One side is praying for peace.

On one side is hope for prosperity.

The king who suppressed the troubled times and the king who started the war couldn't possibly have the same ideals.

Rider smiled and said cheerfully.

"King who bears the name of a knight, your justice and ideals may have saved the country and the people for a while, so your name will be praised to this day. However, what will happen to those who are saved? You Don’t you know?”

"What did you say?"

Blood-stained sunset hills.

That scene appeared in Saber's mind again.

"You blindly "save" your subjects, but never "guide" them. They don't know what the "king's desire" is. You leave your lost subjects, but you use a sacred attitude to defend your own. That kind of petty ideal intoxication."

"So you are not a qualified king. You just want to be a "king" who cares for the people. You are just a little girl who has tied herself up in order to become that kind of idol."

"I……"

There were many things she wanted to say to refute, but every time she spoke, a scene of corpses strewn across the field and rivers of blood would appear before her eyes.

Ever since she pulled out the sword in the stone, she had learned about the prophecy. She knew that it meant destruction, and she had already had an awakening.

but why……

She would be so surprised when she saw this tragic scene with her own eyes that she felt she could do nothing but pray.

Some magicians also predicted that it would be almost impossible to subvert, but she still thought that if a miracle could really happen...

At this time, a dangerous thought occupied Saber's mind.

If instead of protecting Britain as a savior, I act as an overlord and ravage everything...

Troubled times will only become more chaotic because of war. First of all, this is not the path of king she pursues.

And no matter what angle she stood on, Arturia would never choose this option.

But if that were really done, which result would be more tragic than the Battle of the Sword Fence...?

Suddenly, a voice that shouldn't have sounded brought Saber's thoughts back to reality.

"So... Rider, do you want her to abandon the reason for fighting and then go back and be buried in history?"

Saber looked at the young man who said this with some surprise. Even though the young man was facing the most famous king in history, he was not timid at all.

Even from Saber's perspective, there seems to be a layer of looming light on the boy's body...

After blinking, the light that suddenly appeared disappeared.

Is it an illusion...?

Rider seemed a little surprised by this sudden statement, and Archer also looked at him with interest, showing a rare sense of leisure and elegance.

"Master of Lancer, do you have any noble opinions when you say this?"

Xia Qing shook his head.

"I don't have any high opinions. I just feel very sad. Saber has lost everything. If she just gives up her only hope, wouldn't she die with despair and self-blame that are imprinted deep in her soul?"

He never laid his eyes on Saber, but continued to explain what he was saying.

"King of Conquerors, do you want to take away the faith that Saber has carried so far in her battles?"

Rider raised his eyebrows and said.

"My royal way cannot tolerate the existence of this kind of kingly way. This is the answer."

Saber also said coldly at this moment.

"If that's the case, then we can only fight, Rider!"

She smashed the golden wine glass to the ground without hesitation, making Archer frown.

"miscellaneous----"

The words were barely spoken, but their expressions changed in the next second.

After a while, Irisviel and Waver also noticed something in the air around them. Although they couldn't see it, they could feel a very strong killing intent on their skin.

Strange white objects appeared in the atrium illuminated by the moonlight, one after another. Pale faces appeared in the atrium like flowers blooming. The paleness was the color of cold and dry bones.

Wearing a skull mask and a black robe, the deserted atrium was gradually surrounded by this weird group.

Assassin…

Xia Qing's lips curved into a smile.

Although there was a deviation, Tokiomi Tosaka still acted like this.

Rider and Waver were not the only ones who knew that they were still alive. Saber and Irisviel also learned this from their conversation with Kiritsugu in Warehouse Street.
