I, the heroic substitute, was exposed

Now if she didn't delay for a minute, someone would be arrested, and she couldn't just sit back and watch.

Now that there is no specific news, it makes her crazy to scratch her head, but Wang's etiquette tells her not to be so rude.

"Leah, this is the tea made by Aili, you try it. The top black tea. I like Aili's tea the most."

"Thank you, Master."

Artoria took the black tea that Bei Mu handed over, and took a sip, her rosy lips became glistening, and water droplets hung from the corners of her mouth, like a lovely water elf.But the lovely tongue suddenly appeared and snatched the water droplet away.

First use the perfectly flavored black tea, and Artoria plans to discuss the next thing with the master, what to do next.

"Master—"

"Leah, I know what you're going to say. I'm more anxious than you about this kind of thing. Someone will find it, within two days. As long as the guys from the Church of the Holy Church are quiet and work hard, they can be found. And not now Time to think about this."

Bei Mu smiled slightly and pointed to the sky.

Sky? ...Artoria

in doubt.

Suddenly a roar rang in her ears.Not only that, but the roar that tore through the night also startled Irisviel and Illya.

The roar came from close-range thunder, and the ensuing magical impact meant that the enchantment in the forest outside the city had been attacked.

But Bei Mu deliberately touched the barrier, and he made enough gestures, the other party should understand.

"What's going on... Frontal breakthrough?"

Bei Mu had already left the place and went back to take care of Irisviel, leaving only Artoria looking at the sky.

Under the moonlight, Artoria could clearly see the figure of the man, tall and mighty, so she didn't think it was that heroic spirit.

"..."

"Yo, the King of Knights. After hearing about the castle here, I wanted to come and see—how did it happen, huh?"

Iskandar grinned without shame, showing his teeth, and then moved his neck in a serious manner.

"There are too many trees in the yard and it is inconvenient to go in and out. I almost lost my way before I got to the city gate, so I cut some for you, thank me. The vision has become better."

"Conqueror. You..."

Arturia spoke sharply, but facing this inexplicable enemy, she didn't know what to say next.

Iskandar frowned in surprise and said.

"Hey King of Knights, won't you change into a modern outfit tonight? Stop wearing that rigid armor."

If Arturia's appearance in armor was said to be rigid, how would Rider's jeans and T-shirt be evaluated.

If this armor is regarded as Artoria's pride, the cracks on the thick breastplate seem to imply its fragility.

Here, perhaps we can only say "the ignorant is invincible".

Waver half-hid behind Iskandar's huge body, looked up at Arturia, and could not tell whether he was hostile or fearful from his expression.

Needless to say, "I want to go home" and "Hurry up" are clearly written on his face.

Once King Iskandar was interested in the culture of the invaded territory, so he took the lead in wearing Asian-style clothing, making his followers shy away from him.

Irisviel had heard of this story, but she certainly didn't expect that the reason why Iskandar in front of her changed into modern clothes was actually Artoria who was wearing a skirt.

What made them feel even more strange was that what Iskandar held was not a weapon or something used in combat.

but a bucket.

No matter how you look at it, it's a wooden wine bottle.Rider, who easily held the wine bottle under his arm, looked like a wine shop owner who came to deliver.

"you……"

Arturia, who was at a loss for words again, took a deep breath and said calmly.

"Rider, what are you doing here?"

"I don't understand after reading it? I came to you for a drink-hey, don't put the pestle there, let's lead the way. Is there a courtyard suitable for banquets? The castle is full of ash, no."

"..."

Artoria sighed helplessly, and the anger accumulated in her chest disappeared.

Looking at this seemingly harmless opponent, she couldn't maintain her fighting spirit.

But her fighting spirit was aroused, and she looked at Iskandar with a serious expression.

Both of them are kings. If there is a winner, it should be at the wine table. This is a battle without bloodshed.

Iskandar applauded Artoria's chilly aura.

"Alright, the real battle is about to begin!"

[Everyone in the Holy Grail War has ghosts in their hearts and only cares about themselves.This is the true portrayal. 】

[What's the matter, if there is only one person left alive in the end, I will definitely use everything and everything.As long as I can seize the opportunity, I will do it.As for morality?Sorry, I'm the last one alive. 】

【This is not a war for good people to participate in. As long as it is a war, there will be bloodshed, which is unavoidable, so it is called the Holy Grail-war, not battle. 】

[Iskandar didn't get the news, right? Bluebeard's attack is a small-scale raid. 】

The venue of the banquet was chosen beside the flower bed in the atrium of the castle.Last night's battle did not affect this place, and it doesn't look shabby for entertaining guests.At this time, no one cared about the cold outside.

Iskandar brought the wine bottle to the courtyard, and the two servants sat down facing each other and confronted each other leisurely.

Irisviel and the others sat on the side, speculating on the development of the situation, and realized that this meant a temporary truce, and all they had to do was watch from the side.

Iskandar smashed the lid of the barrel with his fist, and the mellow aroma of red wine immediately permeated the air in the atrium.

"Although the shape is odd, it's a wine vessel unique to this country."

While talking, Iskandar smacked the wine with a bamboo-handled spoon triumphantly.Unfortunately, no one was able to point out his common-sense error on the spot.

Iskandar drank the wine in the spoon first, and then spoke.

"I heard that only qualified people can get the Holy Grail."

The serious tone calmed the surrounding atmosphere.

This man actually spoke in such a tone, and he always felt that something was wrong.

"And the ceremony to select the qualified person is this battle in Fuyuki—but if you just watch from the sidelines, then there is no need to shed blood. As heroic spirits, if they can recognize each other's abilities, then

If so, I don't need to say it. "

"..."

Arturia took the spoon from Iskandar without hesitation, and also took a spoonful of wine.

Artoria's thin body always makes people worry about whether she can really drink.But judging by the boldness of her drinking, she is not inferior to the giant Iskandar at all.

Seeing this, Iskandar let out a happy voice of praise.

"So, first of all, who are you going to compete with me? Rider."

"Exactly, a real contest in the name of the 'King', but then it's not called the 'Holy Grail War', it would be better to call it the 'Holy Grail Quiz'... In the end, between the King of Knights and the King of Conquerors, who can What about being the 'King of the Holy Grail'? That's the perfect question to ask a wine glass."

Iskandar changed his serious tone just now, and smiled mischievously.Then he spoke again as if talking to himself.

"Ah, speaking of which, there is also a person who claims to be the 'King' here."

"—End the joke, bastard."

It seemed to be responding to Iskandar's ambiguous words.A dazzling golden light flashed in front of everyone.

That sound and that light made the bodies of Arturia and Irisviel stiffen immediately.

"Archer, why are you here..."

Arturia asked sharply, but it was the calm Rider who answered her.

"Ah, when I saw him on the street, I asked him to drink with him—but he was late, Jinguang. But he walks differently from me, so you can't blame him."

Gilgamesh, who was wearing armor, stared proudly at Rider with ruby-like eyes.

"It's really a shame that you chose such a crappy place for a banquet. You just have this taste. How can you apologize for making me come here on purpose?"

"Don't say that, come, have a drink first."

Iskandar smiled boldly and handed the spoon full of wine to Archer.

He thought he would be irritated by Iskandar's attitude, but unexpectedly, he simply took the spoon and drank the wine inside.

Irisviel remembered the "challenge" that Arturia had mentioned earlier.

Gilgamesh, since this unidentified golden hero claims to be the "King", it is impossible for him to reject the internal, department, post, book/group: 9'8"0'2,05?8 :5 The wine passed by Iskandar.

"—What kind of bad wine is this, to actually use this kind of wine to fight between heroes?"

Gilgamesh said with a look of disgust.

"Really? I got it from the market here. Nice wine."

"It's because you don't know anything about wine, you bastard."

A vortex of void space appeared around the snorting Gilgamesh.

This was the harbinger of the strange phenomenon that could call out the Noble Phantasm, and Weber and Irisviel only felt a chill in their bodies.

——But what appeared around Gilgamesh tonight was not military equipment, but a series of drinking utensils inlaid with dazzling gemstones.The heavy gold bottle is filled with a colorless and clear liquid.

"Look, this is the 'Wine of the King'."

"Oh, so touching."

Iskandar didn't mind Gilgamesh's tone, and happily poured the new wine into the three cups.

Arturia was still very wary of the unknown Gilgamesh, she looked at the wine in the golden bottle with some hesitation, but still took the glass offered.

"Oh, delicious!!"

Iskandar took a sip, immediately widened his eyes and praised.Now even Arturia was aroused curiosity.

Originally, this was not a competition to see who was more decent, but a competition of wine.

When the wine flowed into her throat, Artoria only felt a strong sense of swelling in her head.

This is indeed a good wine she has never tasted before. It is strong and clean, mellow and refreshing, and the strong fragrance fills the nostrils, making the whole person feel elusive.

"Great, this is definitely not a wine made by humans, it's a drink made by gods."

Looking at Iskandar who did not hesitate to praise him, Gilgamesh smiled leisurely.

He also sat down at some point, shaking the wine glass in his hand contentedly.

"Of course, whether it's wine or swords, I only keep the best things in my treasury - this is the king's taste."

"What a joke, Archer."

Saber growled.The calm was beginning to be shattered by a tense atmosphere.

"I'm tired of hearing you bragging about your wine collection. You don't look like a king, but a clown."

Gilgamesh looked at Arturia who was full of gunpowder with a sneer.

"It's ridiculous, a guy who doesn't even know how to drink is not worthy of being a king."

"Okay, you two are so boring."

Iskandar smiled wryly and motioned to Arturia who wanted to say something else, then turned around and continued the previous topic.

Seeing this, the real Gilgamesh laughed arrogantly.

"This is the king's style. It has been said that the king's treasury is full of top-notch treasures, and garbage-like items are not worthy of appearing in the king's treasury!"

As soon as this remark came out, many people echoed it one after another, and they all came to take pictures of the Gilgamesh treasure.

Some ministers were almost given a heart attack by Gilgamesh.

Even if he works hard every day, the King of Heroes will still say, "None of the people in this king's time is a waste, but now why are there so many wastes? No, I have to give my king a profit."

Use it" and so on.

Many ministers also have hardships that they can't tell, so they can only bear it silently.
