I don't like the gods, I want to be a hero

Illya, with a childlike heart, quickly forgot about being teased by Serius just now, and happily hummed a song because she saw a beautiful flower in the park.

It was because he felt that Illya was no longer angry with him that Seleus dared to mention what happened to the boy just now.

"Why does Berserker ask that?"

Illya didn't want to talk to the 'bad Berserker' who made her angry, but she was a little curious about how Seleus knew about this, so she decided to let her servants go first this time.

"Let's not say that you have been chanting his name since Fuyuki City, the person you wanted me to kill before was that Emiya Shirou, right?"

In fact, according to Serius' personality, if Illya didn't take the initiative to tell him, he would not take the initiative to ask about his master's private affairs.

However, Ilya, who has a temperamental personality and can be called "decisive to kill" in a sense, was so entangled in the face of a person for the first time, which aroused Serius' curiosity.

"Yes, it is indeed him." The little hand she was holding was suddenly clenched, and Illya raised her head to look at the profile of Serius, with an elusive expression.

"Could you tell me why you are so ... interested in him?"

Why is Emiya Shirou so obsessed with?

Her father is Emiya Kiritsugu, an idealist who wants to become the embodiment of justice and create a world where everyone is happy.

Speaking of which, Emiya Kiritsugu's ideals are very similar to those of Serius, but the biggest difference between them is that Emiya Kiritsugu is very 'fair'.

Emiya Kiritsugu treats everyone equally, and in his eyes, everyone's life is a number that can be modified with 'bars'.

He will resolutely abandon a few people, but he will not abandon anyone in the majority, so what he wants is a world where everyone will be happy, which he can't imagine at all.

Serius didn't think as much as Emiya Kiritsugu, he simply wouldn't give up on any poor person who appeared in his eyes, and what he wanted in the end was to be someone who could bring peace of mind to everyone who met him. Just a hero.

Although Seleus finally became a desperate beast who had to sleep outside the world, he was satisfied with his current situation as a servant who could bring hope to people.

Back to the topic, Emiya Kiritsugu is indeed a good father when facing Illya. At least in Illya's memories of happiness, his father's appearance rate exceeds that of his mother Alice.

However, it was precisely because the memories Emiya Kiritsugu brought to Illya were so good that the girl transformed that love from her relatives into an unforgettable ruthlessness after knowing that she was abandoned by her father.

Why would Kiritsugu abandon her?Why didn't she take her away even though she survived, and instead adopted other children in the place where her mother died?

Illya hated her father, and this hatred was intensified because of Einzbern's cruel experiments.

Illya wanted to take revenge on Kiritsugu, but now that her father was dead, she extended this hatred to her father's adopted son, Shirou Emiya.

But Illya was very entangled again. She really hated Emiya Kiritsugu, but after Serius appeared, she regained her desire for happiness, and because of ten years of painful experience, she became even more nostalgic for her former family in disguise.

Therefore, Illya was very entangled in the matter of killing Emiya Kiritsugu, who was adopted by Emiya Kiritsugu, the only one in the world who could be regarded as her relative.

"He is Kiritsugu's adopted son, the adopted son adopted by Kiritsugu when he stayed in Fuyuki City after killing his mother with his own hands..."

With complicated feelings that she didn't understand, Illya slowly explained the most direct reason to Serius.

"So this is ah..."

Serius finally understood why Illya never forgot about Emiya Shirou, and also understood why Ahad specially listed a separate piece of information for Emiya Shirou, an 'ordinary person'.

'Is it because I saw the shadow of my father in Emiya Shirou that I was so entangled? '

Seleus, who has never personally experienced what happened to Illya, can't empathize with the complicated mood of his little master. As an adopted son, he can only guess with his own thinking.

"By the way, aren't we getting closer and closer to the suburbs? If we want to verify the information, shouldn't we go around the city?"

Seeing that the girl who was in a good mood was so disappointed because of his words, Seleus wished to kill himself who had not managed his curiosity before, but the matter had come to this point, and Seleus could only hope to change the subject to let the girl Forget about heavy memories for now.

"We are going to the Holy Church to report, this is part of the agreement..."

......

On the outskirts of Fuyuki City, a manly beauty with short red hair and a black suit was walking alone on the road.

"Master, wait a moment."

Suddenly, a burst of blue light and mist gathered, holding a red gun, wearing a blue tights, and a warrior with a very wild expression appeared beside the beauty in men's clothing.

"What's wrong? Lancer." The beauty in men's clothing looked at the man in front of her in confusion.

"He has the aura of a follower, but he's still a guy with an unbelievably strong aura..."

Chapter 13 Rolling

The magician can realize the third magic, but the disciples of the magician can't do it.

As an alternative, the magician's disciples plan to create an individual identical to the master, and make this individual reproduce the third magic...

But the magicians failed, and they had to succumb to "the limits of their own talents" and accepted that "even if humans can create beings that surpass humans, they cannot create beings that save humans."

The desperate Einzbern magicians gave up their dreams, along with the artificial humans they created to realize the third law.

But the amazing thing is that although the creators voluntarily chose to give up, the artificial people left behind are still constantly studying technology, just to realize the dreams of their owners.

Moreover, unlike the creators who desire to control magic, the artificial people who were born only to realize their "long-cherished wish" did not get too entangled in the existence of magicians.Therefore, compared to their creators, androids have gone further in realizing the dream of 'relief for all mankind' -

Since it is impossible to create a second Justesa, then expand the range of Justesa's effect; since Justesa itself has great limitations, then use Justesa as a body to build a larger Since it is impossible to create an existence that saves mankind, then throw away that useless form and let the third method appear in the purest way...

The artificial people of Einzbern chose a solution that only they can use with the purest and uniquely mechanical thoughts—the 'third magic wide-area operating device', also known as the 'Great Holy Grail'.

With the help of like-minded 'friends', Einzbern completed the ritual construction of the 'Great Holy Grail' in Fuyuki City.

After that, in order to publicize the creators' contribution for all mankind, and to prove the justice of the ceremony to those who know the existence of the Holy Grail War hundreds of years later.

At the same time, in order to prevent other magicians from intervening in the ceremony, and considering the aftermath in case the ceremony fails, Einzbern invited the second magician—Jewel Unzelrich to attend the ceremony held by Yusanjia as a witness. .....

"Since the supervisor of the first Holy Grail War was Zellich, whose lifespan was comparable to that of a god, why was it replaced by the Templar Church, which has always hated or even been hostile to magicians?"

Serius expressed that he did not understand Illya's introduction to the Holy Grail War Supervisor.

Normally speaking, the priests and representatives of the Holy Church hate magicians very much.

After all, in their view of worshiping God, the all-divine unified true God, all the mysteries outside the body belong to the power of the gods, and only those with the permission of the gods can use the mysterious power.

And these magicians who have no belief, wanton use without the permission of the gods, and even pass on the mystery are essentially stealing the power of the gods, which is an unforgivable blasphemy.

As for the magicians... well~~~ Magicians have nothing to say.

"Even if Gemstone has mastered the second magic and is lucky enough to have a nearly eternal lifespan, he is still a qualified magician in essence, and for magicians, there is never enough time to pursue the magic path."

It's hard for Serius to imagine that this kind of speech that is quite in line with an orthodox magician was uttered by Illya, but she herself doesn't think so - the girl who is the strongest master does not only have powerful magic aptitude, love Inzbern's ten years of rigorous education has trained her to be a qualified great magician.

"Although the Church of the Holy Church is not...'friendly' to the collective of magicians, some still resist this magic ceremony in the name of the Holy Grail. However, the Holy Grail function promoted by Yusanjia is too amazing, and there is a second magician as a guarantee The accuracy of the ritual effect can be verified, so they must have been involved anyway."

"Since you're not happy, then just..."

In Seleus' view, since he knew that a thing was out of control and very dangerous, the safest course of action should be to destroy it directly, rather than engage in some tricks of intervention and supervision.

But before he finished expressing his opinion, he was interrupted by Ilya who guessed what he wanted to ask.

"Destroying the 'Great Holy Grail' directly is indeed a simple and effective method, but the power of the Holy Church was unprecedentedly weak at that time, and the ancestors of the Yusanjia ran to Japan in the far east to avoid them..."

Illya stretched out an index finger and flicked in the air. It seemed that the silver-haired girl was very proud of showing her knowledge in front of the hero.

"Knowing that it is impossible to destroy the 'Great Holy Grail' protected by the Gem Lord with its own strength, the Church of the Holy Church can only take advantage of the opportunity of the truce with the Magician Association to ensure the fairness of the Holy Grail War and conceal the mystery from the world. Weng took over the job."

"Of course, the most real purpose is to ensure that the power of the Holy Grail is used in the right place, so every contestant must report to the supervisor,,,, what's wrong? Berserker."

Illya, who was talking about it, was stopped behind by Seleus, who suddenly lifted her spirit body, and this behavior also made the girl tug on the battle skirt of her servant in confusion.

"Illya, did you just say that every contestant should report to the supervisor?" Serius' voice was somewhat serious.

"In order to ensure that there are no dangerous people among the contestants... Did you bump into a contestant who also came here to report?"

Seeing the serious look on Serius' face, Illya instantly understood the current situation.

"Yes, they discovered it in advance." Seleus held his battle ax in his hand, and then turned his head to look at Illya who was blocked by him.

"That guy is coming here, and judging from his swift speed and the way he fights when he sees him, there is a high probability that he is a follower of Lancer's job." After the analysis, Seleus He patted himself on the shoulder with his left hand.

"Do you want to sit up? Or do you want to stand behind and watch me fight?"

Serius never underestimated any servant. After all, servants are heroes in legends throughout the ages, and no matter whether it is force or means, they must not be underestimated.

However, it is important to pay attention to it, but it does not prevent Seleus from having the confidence to fight with Illya...or, under the protection of Aegis, Illya sat on Seleus' shoulders and received His immediate protection is probably safer.

And leaving Illya alone in the rear, she might be attacked by an attack that could break through the defense of Aegis.

"No need, I want to see the powerful power of Berserker." Compared with Serius' seriousness, Illya's performance is more like a child waiting in front of the TV to start the anime, and she is very confident in her followers She was even more excited than the warrior Serius.

"Be careful at that moment. If you encounter danger, you must use the command spell. Don't be brave, and don't take care of me..." Different from the previous battles alone, this is the first time to bring the guardian object to face the enemy. Serius was inexplicably nervous.

But this situation didn't last long, because the perceived servant had already appeared in front of Serius.

"Although I knew it was a great existence from the powerful aura, I didn't expect that the oppressive feeling would be even stronger after meeting!"

The person who spoke was a muscular young man with dark blue hair tied into a braid behind his head and wearing tight armor. He was holding a scarlet spear in his hand, and he was squatting on a tree trunk not far away, watching Serius .

"Sure enough, it's Lancer."

Even with a distance of tens of meters, Illya could clearly feel the powerful magic power from this man, and the only ones who possessed this level of magic power and appeared in Fuyuki at this point in time were Servants.

Coupled with the ominous gun in the man's hand and the aura full of fighting spirit and bloodthirsty, only the spearmen of this Holy Grail War possess these characteristics.

"Isn't this obvious? My lovely little lady." The man's voice was a little frivolous. "After all, the one with the gun can't be Caster, and Assassin can't be upright like me, and Berserker is next to the little lady, so no matter how you think about it, I'm Lancer."

"What a glib and frivolous man." Illya couldn't help frowning at the spearman's frivolous performance. "Kill him! Berserker."

"Although I rushed here with the intention of fighting, I didn't expect to be so... what?!!!"

The flirtatious man still wanted to joke with the rare beauty on the opposite side before the battle, but he didn't expect that the berserker who had been quiet all this time suddenly burst into a stronger momentum than before. It rushed in front of him almost instantly.

"boom--"

The powerful battle ax intersected with the long spear in front of him in a hurry. The spearman seemed to be hit head-on by a high-speed train, and he pulled out a nearly ten-meter-long furrow on the ground. It was easy to find the center of gravity, then slammed on the ground and jumped up, releasing all the strength in the air before landing on the ground smoothly.

"What a monster!" Lancer, who had regained his stance, gritted his canine teeth, and said these words viciously. If he hadn't reacted quickly and blocked it with a spear, he would have been seriously injured if he didn't die just now.

"How is it? Lancer." Like a child showing off his most precious treasure, Ilya proudly challenged Lancer who had suffered a lot. "Berserker is the strongest!"

"It's really strong, that kind of exaggerated tension that presses down like a mountain." Having said that, Lancer's expression became extremely violent and ferocious, which was an irresistible excitement of facing a strong enemy. "But my uncle is not a vegetarian either!"

The scarlet magic power surged into the spear in his hand, and Lancer's own strength also skyrocketed with the release of the magic power.

"—Whoosh!"

Lancer's figure disappeared in place along with the air wave, and appeared in front of Seleus in an instant, the magic spear in his hand pierced Seleus' body like lightning.

As a follower of the gun, Lancer can be said to be unparalleled in the world in terms of the angle of the gun and the change of the trajectory.

Ordinary servants would be defeated if they couldn't sustain a round of attacks. Even first-class heroes, after Lancer used his speed advantage to seize the upper hand, they could only be severely suppressed by his continuous offensive.

But Lancer is now facing the existence of Serius, a king of hard steel titans.

'Using the long to attack the short, although he took the initiative to rush towards me, he still wisely kept a distance from me, and then used the advantage of the length of the weapon to make it impossible for me to counterattack effectively. '

Because he was worried about Illya, Serius didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue after knocking Lancer into the air just now, which allowed Lancer to take the initiative to attack.

'Knowing that I am not my opponent in terms of muscular strength, I used the agility difference brought about by my small size to launch a fierce attack, making my huge size a burden in battle, which is also considered that the battle ax cannot effectively defend. '

Serius couldn't help admiring the opponent in front of him in his heart.

' But, it didn't work for me! '

Such things as skills are of no use at all under the absolute strength gap.

Serius directly ignored Lancer's attack, his crimson eyes locked onto the position of the spear in an instant, and then quickly grabbed the tip of the spear with his left hand and pulled it forcefully to the side, Lancer's body was uncontrollable under the action of the huge force Approaching Seleus.

And Serius also raised his big foot at this time, and kicked Lancer's chest fiercely.

"Puff!"

Lancer vomited a mouthful of blood, and his body flew backwards like a cannonball, and hit the ground heavily.

"Really, this feeling of powerlessness that will be easily resolved no matter what actions I take, I seem to have provoked a guy who is the same as an old woman."

While putting his left hand on his chest to check the injury, he supported his body with the magic gun. Although he was seriously injured and very embarrassed, Lancer's face was even more excited, and even the corners of his mouth almost reached the roots of his ears.

"But that's what's interesting, isn't it?"

With his right index finger, Lancer quickly drew a mysterious rune on the spear. The power of the rune instantly raised his physical fitness to a higher level.

But it wasn't enough, the power gap between Lancer and Serius was too great, and the half-baked runes used by Lancer were simply not capable of providing that much power.

'There is a huge gap in strength, and there are back and forth in agility, not to mention other things. With one big and one small scarlet eyes staring at the tall giant in front of him, Lancer kept thinking of countermeasures in his mind. 'Looks like I need to make some preparations...'

Thinking of this, Lancer grabbed a handful of stones without any trace, and then rearranged his posture..
