Chapter 718: father and son

The spiral sword Kaladboga is the magic sword owned by the warrior Fergus in Celtic mythology. Normally, the probability of summoning Fergus is higher, but when there is a restriction - someone who was contaminated by King Arthur ten years ago Blood is different.

After all, it is the prototype of the Sword of Promise of Victory. The two phases are accumulated, and the probability of drawing both of them by drawing a card is just like Gilgamesh said, roughly half and half.

But Ji Xing knew that it was unlikely that he would win the other half, because Artoria was in a very special state—she was not a heroic spirit after death, but stayed at the moment before death, interacting with the planet's restraining power. Alaya signed a contract, and after obtaining the Holy Grail and fulfilling his wish, he would die and become a guardian.

The battle was interrupted ten years ago, and now she must be responding to the call of the Holy Grail very actively. Not to mention the 50% directivity, even if it is a holy relic with 1% directivity, she may jump out with a whoosh.

Hence, the probability is 99.9%!

Ji Xing found that he suddenly got Emiya Shirou's script.

Then the question is whether to do it or not.

 Seeing him staring at the spiral sword on the ground in silence, Tohsaka Rin thought that this was one of the best solutions and then suddenly thought of another question.

If it is said that Lixing's parents died in the Battle of Weiyuan River ten years ago, wouldn't it mean that Tong Yuan, King Gilgamesh, and King Arthur were his enemies in a sense?

The relationship here is too messy.

She turned her head with a headache: "King Arthur is not good, the shining golden hero king, let's change it to another one. The battle ten years ago destroyed Lixing's home, although I don't know the details..."

"It's not her. Although I don't care about the life and death of the bastard, I won't be so bored that I deliberately kill some ants. With the power of that clown, I won't be able to affect the shore." Gilgamesh didn't care at all. In disguise, he admitted that it was probably him and Tong Yuan who did it.

Tohsaka Rin glanced at Ji Xing and knew that this was an unaccountable debt. If we really want to pursue it, I'm afraid we have to trace it to the construction of the Holy Grail War system.

She didn't know how to comfort her, so she just said to Jin Shining who looked unashamed: "Weren't you the first to be killed? How do you know that Tong Yuan and King Arthur didn't fight fiercely afterwards?"

"...Hmph, little girl, are you deliberately provoking my anger?" Jin Shining paused and said arrogantly: "The king's gift is only once. If you refuse to accept it, I don't have to just call myself The king’s clown assistant!”

“If you tell the truth, you’ll get angry, and you can’t even accept your own failure. How can you be a king?”

Tohsaka Rin didn't go too far. He just muttered again and changed the subject: "You have heard it, Tatexing-san, you can decide for yourself whether you want to choose King Arthur to be your servant."

Ji Xing was silent for three seconds. As if he had finally made up his mind, he raised his head and said, "Then I will trouble you again, Tohsaka-san."

"It's not too troublesome." Tohsaka Rin let out a sigh of relief: "Actually, except for Tatexei-san, you are a complete rookie. It's a good thing to have a trustworthy ally like you."

Although my father didn’t know what he would think.

"Don't trust me too much. After the camp war, won't your own camp also have to decide the winner?" Ji Xing said: "I will seriously compete for the Holy Grail, and I may be my opponent by then."

Tohsaka Rin was startled and realized that he didn't seem to fully understand the boy in front of him. Yes, before I knew he became a magician, I didn’t seem to have spoken to him alone during the two years I was in the same class.

Having been living independently since the age of seven, I probably won’t be a completely shy and introverted person.

So she smiled sweetly, with that beautiful face that could enchant boys of her age to death, stared at Ji Xing and said: "Then just come here, classmate Lixing, don't die before you fight me!"

The shining gold stands with his arms in his arms, the king stands aloof.

Ji Xingjia.

Mordred lavishly wiped the oil stains from the corner of his mouth with his arm and commented: "It tastes good. That kid is wasting his talent as a magician. It is better to be a cook. So Master, now we should formulate a strategy."

“Don’t be impatient.”

Shi Zi Jie Jie Li responded and said: "Speaking of it, too many things happened last night. The two of us haven't had a good chat or seriously understood each other's past and wishes."

"Huh?" Mordred was startled, then turned and sat down opposite Lion Jie, crossed his legs and said, "If you have any questions, just ask."

"Well...if it involves questions you don't want to answer, you don't have to answer them." Lion Jie scratched his head: "About the 'rebellion'..."

“I knew you cared about this.”

Mordred's face darkened: "There's nothing I can't say. Yes, I did rebel, but that's because my father never recognized my talents from the beginning to the end. Obviously my sword skills, political skills, etc. are no match for hers." Equal, no, I have surpassed her! But just because of my background, she completely denied everything about me!"

Sword skills and political skills? Lion Jie looked at Mordred in front of him and said, "So your wish is to become a king?"

"No, if I become the king in that way, she still won't recognize me! I just want to get a chance to challenge the chosen sword, that's all!"

Legend has it that King Arthur pulled out the sword from the stone when he was a boy, and was selected as the king only after he was chosen as the king. If Mordred can do the same, it will indeed prove his qualifications as a king.

But what if the Holy Grail grants your wish but you cannot pull it out?

Lion Jie had such doubts, but did not ask. He just said: "Actually, I have been thinking about a question since last night. Since King Arthur has become a servant of the Fourth Holy Grail War, it proves that she must If you have a wish that you want to realize, what would it be?”

Mordred was stunned.

A question that made her soul feel like it was boiling and her heart was about to jump began to jump.

Could it be that...father regrets it?

Although she insisted at the last moment that "I am not qualified to be a king," did she actually regret not recognizing me? !

The basement of the Tosaka family.

With the Tosaka family's storage, the materials to draw the summoning magic circle are not worth mentioning. Ji Xing also easily mastered the process and completed it under "Tosaka Rin's narration".

So as Tohsaka Rin and the King of Heroes looked on, after a dazzling light, the girl with extremely beautiful appearance appeared in the world again and descended into Fuyuki City!

King Arthur, Arturia Pendragon felt like she had had a long dream.

Ten years ago, he followed Irisviel and Emiya Kiritsugu to participate in the Holy Grail War. Lancer Tōbuchi, who finally participated in the war, actually summoned his true form from the Throne of Heroes, gaining power that she could not resist at all. In the end, her Master Guard Gong Kiritsugu voluntarily gave up on her and formed an 'alliance' with Tong Yuan.

This is not a betrayal, but returning to Camlan's Hill alone, she still felt very unwilling to accept the inexplicable ending of the Holy Grail journey.

Even if she learned that the Holy Grail was only the third method and not a universal wishing machine, as a king, she would have to verify it herself before giving up.

Sitting on the hill with the remains of the broken sword, time seemed to have lost its meaning to her, until this moment, she saw the light of the sky again.

She knew that this was another summons from the Holy Grail, and she stretched out her hand to the light. In the familiar feeling of summons, she got the information given by the Holy Grail that this time it was a special seven-on-seven battle.

Then his eyes suddenly brightened.

She saw the figure of the young man in front of her and felt the connection of magic power. The supply of this kind of magic power seemed to be less than one-fifth of Emiya Kiritsugu's, but the loyal King of Knights would not frown for this and asked if there was any Inherited words: "May I ask, are you my Master?"

Then he was stunned.

The nearby Tohsaka Rin looked familiar, but the other one she remembered deeply. Wearing armor, she immediately became on guard: "King of Heroes?!"

"Oh?" Jin Shining smiled: "You actually retained your memory? Then you can save yourself some extra words. Don't be so nervous. The clown who claims to be the king, this time you are honored to follow me and other kings first. People fight.

When the winner of the camp is decided, I will continue the unfinished battle with you ten years ago. "

Same camp? Red servant? The opponent last time was actually a teammate this time? !

"So beautiful~" On the side, Tohsaka Rin sighed with emotion that didn't seem to be praising a warrior. There was clearly audible envy in his words.

 On the premise of participating in the Holy Grail War, she hopes that the Saber in front of her will become her servant rather than the difficult King of Heroes, even if the King of Heroes will be stronger!

Sighing melancholy in her heart, she summoned up her energy and said: "King Arthur, I am Tohsaka Rin, the master of the King of Heroes. Come sit up here and let's briefly discuss tactics."

It was eight o'clock when Ji Xing entered Tohsaka's house, and it was already ten o'clock when this series of events ended. When he entered Tosaka's house, he was alone. When he came out, he was followed by a blond girl with a delicate face.

Tohsaka Rin, who had warned them about several important matters from behind, watched the two of them leave, and then looked at the King of Heroes next to him, his eyes full of disgust.

Altria took off her armor and put on the dress she wore ten years ago. She followed Ji Xing step by step, observing her master.

At Tohsaka's home, she learned from Tohsaka Rin the origin of this special seven-on-seven Holy Grail War, and also learned what happened after she left the game ten years ago.

Kiritsugu was just the one who took the blame. She knew this better than anyone who had heard it firsthand. Tong Yuan decided to attack the clock tower very early, which had nothing to do with all the evil in this world that polluted the Holy Grail.

She had even heard Tong Yuan's words, "All the evil in this world has been trying to escape from my body," and knew that all the strangeness came from him.

The King of Heroes seems to understand this very well. When Tohsaka Rin told this point, he let out a cold hum twice, so it seems that it is necessary to guard against the reappearance of Tong Yuan in this Holy Grail War.

He could never go to the Clock Tower to die, nor should he be purified easily.

In addition to this, the situation in front of her also made her feel a little difficult.

The Master is indeed a little weak.

The supply of magic power greatly affects the combat effectiveness of the Heroic Spirit. Ten years ago, the magic power of Emiya Kiritsugu was enough for her to release the Noble Phantasm five times, but this time the Master may not be able to maintain her existence once she releases it. She is still a special heroic spirit that cannot transform into a spiritual body. This is a challenge for both of them. They have to find a way to change this bad situation.

As Rin Tosaka said, she has only been exposed to magic for less than a month. In fact, this supply of magic power is already very good, but it is not enough to support her to compete with the King of Heroes and other heroic spirits.

“The one currently supplying you with magic power is one of the auxiliary circuits of the magic circuit in my body.”

Just as she was considering how to communicate with the seemingly taciturn Master, a voice suddenly sounded, as if it was floating out of thin air. If it weren't for her sharp perception, Artoria would not even be able to determine that it came from the person in front of her.

Auxiliary circuit? One?

“Master, you...”

Ji Xing turned around and smiled: "Currently, I have a total of 30 auxiliary circuits. In order not to affect my own combat effectiveness, under normal circumstances I will only unlock the magic power of the auxiliary circuits for you. You should first get used to the feeling of 30 auxiliary circuits taking effect at the same time."

There was no time to ask any more. The next moment, Artoria felt a surge of energy pouring into her body! The quality and quantity were far beyond those of ten years ago, and she almost lost control of her power for a second, and was exposed abnormally on the street!

Her body shook slightly, and the blush on her face disappeared. When Artoria looked at Ji Xing again, she was completely shocked: "Master, what on earth are you..."

“As you can see, King Arthur, I am a powerful magician in the Holy Grail War. My wish is the third magic that exists in the Holy Grail.”

Ji Xing smiled and said: "Does this conflict with your king's pride? In the confrontation between the two armies, it shouldn't be too much to use a little strategy, right?"

…”

Are you an Emiya Kiritsugu type master again? !

No, the boy in front of me is not as gloomy as Emiya Kiritsugu, at least he is willing to communicate with me. This kind of behavior can indeed be called a strategy. King Arthur is not a rigid person who doesn't know how to adapt.

But, but...

His behavior of concealing it even from his teammates is slightly unworthy of chivalry. More importantly, what is going on with this abundant magic power that far exceeds Emiya Kiritsugu's by several or even ten times? Or is it just the auxiliary circuit?

Just like a magician from the age of the gods!

After a short period of filling, the magic water pipe leading into her body quickly turned back into a needle.

"In order to hide under normal conditions, I only give you one circuit. When you face the need of combat, I will give you sufficient battery life in a clever way." Ji Xing said: "One more thing, please keep it a secret for me first and pretend I’m just a newbie magician who doesn’t know anything.”

Altria was silent for a few seconds. Although the shock had not subsided, she still gave an affirmative answer. No matter what he thought, the Knight King as a servant would set the master-slave relationship upright.

There is no doubt about this!

This is also the reason why Ji Xing did not refuse to summon her as a servant after considering it.

Medium positive and stable.

  Regardless of whether there are more or less positive gains, King Arthur will never be a hindrance.

Except Mordred.

But it may not be possible to turn bad things into good things.

"Master, can you explain more to me? For example, why you have such magic power, and how far you want to achieve in this Holy Grail War, together with Tohsaka Rin of the class and her servant Hero King Do you want to hide it to the end?”

“These, let’s pass on the perception. I’ll tell you while we’re shopping for groceries (edited).”

So in the vegetable supermarket, everyone who bought vegetables saw a wonderful scenery.

The young man who looks like a high school student is picking fruits and vegetables in an extremely skilled and professional manner. Behind him is a girl who is as beautiful as if she stepped out of a comic book, but she seems to be sleepwalking. From time to time, she suddenly nods her head, showing an expression of shock or thinking.

In Artoria's eyes, her Master this time has become someone who accidentally picked up magic books after losing her parents at the age of seven, who knew the truth about the Holy Grail War and kept hiding herself, who discovered that she has superb magic talents while practicing silently, A magical character that was only revealed before the Holy Grail War and is only waiting for a blockbuster in the Holy Grail War.

After walking out of the vegetable supermarket, Ji Xing looked at Artoria who was looking embarrassed and thinking, and smiled: "Oh, one more thing, I may have left a surprise for you at home, but in order to make the performance more realistic, I won't let you know for a while. Tell you what it is."

Artoria:?

My servant is broken.

This is what Lion Jie Jieli is thinking in his heart at this moment. Ever since he 'awakened' Mordred, the other person has been sitting on the sofa all morning, sometimes thinking solemnly and sometimes giggling.

There is no mention of going out to search for enemies.

‘Well, it’s 10:30, why don’t you come back? If this continues, there is a possibility that we won’t have that free lunch... No, I almost forgot that we are in the Holy Grail War. ’

The lion Jie Jieli tapped his temple and suddenly saw Mordred sitting upright.

The broken look faded away instantly, revealing a guarded expression. Lion Tribulation immediately understood that there was probably only one situation that would make Mordred like this.

“Are there any followers nearby?”

“Ah, be careful, Master.”

"Outside? Don't be impatient, it's probably the chef who has completed the summons."

The lion robbery world is a gesture, and walks slowly to the window and semi -faintly look out. The enemy between the people is different. Modrad feels that the other party may not feel them.

Through the window, he could easily see Ji Xing walking on the street in the distance, and the beautiful blond girl following him with her pocket in hand.

“As expected...a super beautiful girl, what is her rank? Caster?”

He murmured in his mouth, and the next moment Lion Jie Jieli felt another chill pressing towards his neck. It was closer than the sharpness that almost made him drive headless last night, and it almost cut into the flesh!

"Hey..." He swallowed dryly and looked at Mordred, who almost killed the master with Hengjian, and saw a face that contained countless emotions such as shock, surprise, and hatred.

Even Mordred's body was shaking.

An idea exploded in my mind like lightning.

"No way…"

Is the other person the father? !

Is there such a coincidence? !

At the same moment, Arturia also sensed the Servant's aura, and the bag in her hand fell off the ground. Half-lying in front of Ji Xing, she looked out the window, and then opened her eyes wide.

This... is a surprise? !

“Mordred…”

She looked back at Ji Xing, but all she saw was a blank and confused face. The perfect emotional interpretation made her feel as if she had been sleepwalking before.

‘Hey, hey, something big is going to happen! ’ Watching Mordred’s spirit body shuttle out, Lion Jiejieli ran outside in a hurry.

Ji Xing quietly took a step back.

Mordred appeared before King Arthur.

The father, whose biological age is always stuck at 15 years old, grows rapidly because he is a clone, and his son, who appears to be in his twenties, is actually only 15 years old. This father and son, who basically died together, reunited across a thousand years. Together!

"Mordred..." Arturia whispered again, holding her armor and raising her sword, with a complicated tone: "Black's Saber, is it you?"

Mordred was not wearing armor, but stared at King Arthur in front of him with complex emotions such as excitement, expectation, and even shyness.

"King...you still regret it after all, right? Regret that you didn't recognize my talent back then, and you want to change everything through the Holy Grail?!"

King Arthur was silent for a few seconds.

"No." She shook her head: "My judgment has not changed. I reject you just because you are not qualified to be a king, Mordred."

"What I want to change through the Holy Grail is my own incompetence. I who led Britain to destruction also don't have the talent to be a king."

Mordred was stunned.

The surrounding air seemed to be stagnant due to this.

Until ten seconds later, the steel armor was on, and the dark red magic power tore the ground apart!

"What did you say?!"

“You think you’re not worthy of being king?!”

For Mordred, this sentence made her ten times more angry than the previous sentence!

5k5.

Throughout the day, I have been debating whether to let Sakura be the master of King Arthur or Ji Xing. In the end, I still feel that we should stick to the original plan. The reason for choosing King Arthur to be Ji Xing's servant is not because of popularity or the original work, but because of the 'Zhongzheng and Stable'. Ji Xing's servants are indeed easy to play tricks, but it feels like putting the cart before the horse. Ji Xing's opportunity to perform.
