Abnormal month

"Sorry, Rider."

Roy smiled slightly and shook his head.

Taigong Wang was dumbfounded.

No, what's the matter?

He has expressed his willingness to be Roy's pawn, so why is he still regretful?

Several times in his Taigongwang life, he only said this to King Zhou once, thousands of years ago!

It was just the second time I said this, why was it rejected?

Roy felt secretly happy.

Haha, I made you gasp for breath while talking!

"Rider, I appreciate your willingness to help me, but what I expect from you is not to protect me."

Roy smiled slightly and expressed his thoughts.

"I hope you will not stand on the bright side, but hide yourself and exist as my last trump card."

"On the surface, I will let Saber be my servant, while you will secretly control the situation."

"I see!"

Tai Gongwang breathed a sigh of relief.

It was such a risk, it turned out that the master didn't want him, he was almost embarrassed!

"Then, I will show up again at the critical moment to defeat the enemy, or when the Master is in danger!"

"No, even if I'm in danger, don't show up."

Roy shook his head again, his expression unchanged.

"Don't say that my life is in danger. Even if I die, Rider, I don't want you to appear. There is only one chance for you to appear, and that is to ensure that I can win the Holy Grail War. If I unfortunately die in the middle, I hope you You can carry on my legacy and help me convey my wishes.”

"Even without the Master, you should be able to survive."

This time Rider was speechless.

He is only allowed to appear at the critical moment to defeat the enemy to ensure the final victory. No matter what happens in the middle, even if the Master dies, he is not allowed to appear.

Roy had only one purpose in making this arrangement, to overcome all difficulties and obtain the final victory.

For this, he could risk his life.

He would not hesitate to even sacrifice his own life.

People who risked their lives for that unattainable ideal were rare even among what he saw and heard for thousands of years.

In his body, Taigong Wang could see the glory comparable to that of ancient heroes.

"I understand. Since the Master expects so much, then I will act in accordance with the Master's expectations!"

Tai Gongwang finally nodded.

If Roy had not died, I believe he would have become the person who changed the world.

While Taigongwang was praising this, he sent a telegram to Yuanshi Tianzun in his heart.

I'm sorry, Master, I applied for the oath I just made to be invalidated. I want to revise it and resubmit it. Can you please give it a go?

Yuanshi Tianzun: "→_→"

The result was beyond expectations, and Taigongwang was very happy.

After communicating with Roy for a while and determining the tactics, he transformed into a spirit and disappeared.

Roy was sitting alone in the corridor, holding cold boiled water in his hand.

Rider was also successfully convinced.

"In this way, when this Holy Grail War begins, my battle will finally reach its starting point."

Roy put down the water glass, inexplicably feeling like drinking.

He got up and walked to the kitchen. There was a refrigerator made of runes at home, with wine in it.

"By the way, did I forget something?"

Roy patted his head and suddenly felt something was wrong.

He had made an agreement with Orange, and also with Taigong Wang, that Kasumigaoka Shiu and Hayasaka Ai would not have to worry about it. Then, the next thing that he had not communicated with yet was——

"I'll go, Saber!"

"Master~! Did you finally remember me? Woohoo!"

Suddenly there was a burst of wailing in my heart.

Miss Okita's cry of resentment like a little daughter-in-law made people's skin crawl.

"Sorry sorry!"

Roy was ashamed and quickly comforted Miss Okita in his heart.

"I definitely haven't forgotten you, I'm just a little busy lately! Look, don't I just think of it now - bah, I mean, don't I just want to have a good chat with you right now?"

If you think about it carefully, it seems that he hasn't said a word to Miss Okita for five or six days.

Obviously, as a Servant, she can only rely on herself. She was also ordered not to show up before the Holy Grail War. As a result, she was left to play for so many days without even saying a word to her. Yes, but I forgot about them!

Wow, when I think about it, I think it’s really too much!

What a scumbag!

"Really? Then Master summoned Rider, didn't he think I was useless?"

Miss Okita asked, sobbing and twitching.

Roy could already picture Miss Okita's aggrieved look with a bottle of oil hanging from the corner of her mouth.

"That's not the case. This was my strategy from the beginning!"

"In other words, Master thought that Miss Okita was completely useless from the beginning?"

"Why do you think so?"

Roy was shocked.

"Because the Master wanted Rider to be his main force from the beginning, right?"

ah.

There is also this explanation.

This is... indeed correct.

"But, Master has told me before that he doesn't value my combat power, but the compatibility between you and me is the most important thing, right?"

Roy's body trembled.

"That's actually because the master never expected my fighting power from the beginning, so he placed his treasure on Rider, right?"

Roy was sweating.

"That is to say, the Master prepared a holy relic to summon a powerful Heroic Spirit from the beginning, and summoned me by affinity, because anyone can do it as long as the affinity is right? Obviously, I came here first!"

Oh no!

She found out!

Roy really didn't expect Miss Okita's combat power from the beginning. He said that he cared about the affinity between her and her, just to fool her into working hard.

Damn, why is Miss Okita so sensitive at this time?

"Saber, come out!"

"Yes... crying..."

The golden spirit light points gathered, and Miss Okita Souji, wearing a haori, appeared in front of Roy.

Her mouth curled, her eyes were wet, and she was wronged.

"Saber, you have to remember, since I summoned you by affinity, it means you are my only one!"

Roy grabbed Okita Souji's shoulders and looked at her firmly.

"No one can do anything. It is because of you that you can help me. Although strength is not your strong point, I actually cannot do without you. You must appear in the next battle. Without you, I can't win the battle. Do you understand?"

"Really?"

Miss Okita blinked her eyes, and a little joy appeared on her face.

"Of course, you have to think about why I summoned you instead of others? This means that I can't do without you!"

Roy looked at Miss Okita with sincerity, blinking his eyes and trying to release sincere waves.

"Master, I can't do without you?! Hate it, don't say such misleading words~!"

Miss Okita's face flushed with embarrassment, like a cooked crab.

...Whatever.

As long as you can stabilize her mood and let her do her best for you, it's fine.

Roy secretly rejoiced in his heart that Miss Okita was innocent and easy to deal with!

Tai Gongwang saw everything in the dark.

He fell into deep thought.

Has he been fooled by the Master?
