I don't want to be a heroic spirit

"……ha?"

"What are you talking about? Wish, wish, you must have one too, right? A wish for the Holy Grail or something, otherwise why would you come to participate in the Holy Grail War? This is not a joke, it can really kill people! Ordinary people You won’t come at all, right? It’s impossible for someone to come just to be killed, right? That’s too stupid.”

Mordred's words made Lion Jie Jieli stunned.

Mordred did not look back at the other party, but continued to shout through a big tree: "Then...am I not your servant? We will go to the decisive battle together next, so... So... I just want to know what your wishes are... I know this process should have been carried out earlier, but... but... anyway! Tell me what your wishes are! "

Mordred's tone was not a good one, making people wonder if she was going to punch someone if Lion Jie Jieli didn't say anything.

Lion Jie Jieli took another deep puff, and the cigarette that was burnt to ashes fell off, leaving only a short section still held by his fingers.

Mordred waited for a long time before Lion Jie Jieli's voice sounded again.

"...I have no desire to place it on the Holy Grail."

There seemed to be birds in the woods, and the sounds they made were very pleasant. The leaves above their heads rustled in the wind, and the light and shadow cast made Lion Jie Jieli's vision somewhat blurry.

"The universal wishing machine... it is indeed a very tempting name."

"However, I have no desire to let it come true... Of course, I did come with a purpose, but when I participated in this Holy Grail War, my purpose was almost completed. "

Hearing this, Mordred's heart skipped a beat.

"Hey hey hey! What are you doing!"

Mordred poked his head out from behind the tree, stared at the lion Jie Jieli and said, "Doesn't that mean that victory means nothing to you?"

There is no desire to make the Holy Grail come true, which means there is no reason to win.

What if the lion Jie Jieli runs away directly?

"Yes, of course I have a reason to win."

Lion Jie Jieli suddenly laughed and turned to look at Mordred.

"I am the Master who summoned you, so winning the Holy Grail with you and realizing your wish is the reason for me to continue fighting."

"Don't worry, I can't do this behavior of leaving you alone in the middle. Now that I'm involved, I have to persevere until the end no matter what."

He pinched the finished cigarette butt and threw it casually on the ground, then stepped on it. Anyway, the area here had experienced the burning of the sun's fire and the baptism of the storm gun, so it didn't matter if there were multiple cigarette butts.

"Oh, by the way, what is your wish? Mordred."

Chapter 230 Mordred’s Wish

"Oh, by the way, what is your wish? Mordred."

"..."

Mordred suddenly fell silent.

Seeing this, Lion Jie Jieli showed a shocked expression and said: "Hey, hey, it can't be some shameful wish, right?"

"What the hell! What on earth are you guessing about!"

Mordred bared his teeth and glared at the lion Jie Jieli, like an angry lioness.

Although he raised his fist, after hesitating for a while, Mordred did not strike down, but instead scratched his hair irritably.

"...Bang! Okay, okay, I'll tell you."

With a tone of resignation, Mordred looked embarrassed and even spoke in a slightly lower voice.

"My wish is... I want all [me] to have the memory of this time."

After saying this, Mordred felt the irritability in his heart getting stronger and stronger.

"Master, didn't you say that before? No matter whether I win the Holy Grail War or not, after it ends, I will lose this part of my memory. The [I] who is summoned again will still be the rebel who destroyed Great Britain. Knight...I don’t want that.”

Mordred blocked her face with her palms, and through her fingers she could see her brows knit together in reluctance.

"What a joke!"

Reluctance and anger, these emotions accumulated in Mordred's chest, making her breathless.

She didn't want that to happen.

She didn't want to draw swords against her father because of a misunderstanding.

She would not forgive her past self... Mordred never told Artoria about this. She hated herself when she was alive, because at that time she failed and ruined all the hard work of her gentle father. .

"So, I must obtain the Holy Grail... Only the Holy Grail can fulfill my wish."

There is no concept of time in the Heroic Soul Seat. The memories of the servants in the Holy Grail War will eventually be known to the body on the Heroic Soul Seat in the form of records, but they will not be synchronized to other individual servants.

And Mordred's wish is this, hoping that other Mordreds can also have the memories of this Holy Grail War.

Especially... the memory of getting along with Artoria, Artoria's words.

Those are Mordred's most cherished treasures, treasures more important than this world.

"Okay, I'm done. Master, you can laugh if you want."

After saying this, Mordred felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off him, and he felt much more relaxed.

Perhaps another word would be more suitable to describe it - "displayed".

Then, Lion Jie Jieli was surprised.

"Huh? Why should I laugh at you?"

"Huh? Master, are you really not laughing at me?"

"Why should I laugh at you? I think you are amazing." Lion Jie Jieli said in a deep voice: "After all...not everyone can see clearly the truest wish in their heart, and...if you want to express your wish, It also takes a lot of courage.”

"Master... I am very satisfied with what you said, so I will spare your life."

After saying that, Mordred put the magic sword Clarenger on his shoulder and walked away.

"Hey, hey, hey! Could it be that if I just smiled, you would have cut me down with that sword?"

"Isn't that natural?"

"Such a matter-of-fact tone? And with an expression that seems to be asking 'what stupid question are you asking'? Am I not your master? If I were hacked to death by you before the final battle, what would you do? manage?"

"Huh? Yes..."

Mordred raised his head and was stunned for a long time.

"...But isn't this without cutting?"

Mordred turned around and showed a bright and sunny smile towards Lion Jie Jieli.

"Since it's not chopped, there's no need to worry about it. At worst, I'll treat you to a meal. No matter what happens, you still have to eat... Let's go, let's smile."

"I just walked around the gate of hell... How could you make me laugh?"

"Then it's even more important to smile. There's a saying in modern times: If you don't die, you will have good luck in the future!"

"It's 'if you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later'..."

…………

"Caster...he has already withdrawn?"

When she heard the news, Arturia was stunned for a moment.

"Yes……"

Fiore's expression is a little heavy... This is easy to understand. Caster Avisbronn's importance to Black is not even inferior to that of Vlad III and Siegfried, who are the strongest combatants.

Avisbronn can not only provide an endless army of golems, but its Noble Phantasm is the trump card that Black has always hidden.

Black will send two servants to capture Astolfo and the android Sieg. The main purpose is to make the escaped android into the heart of Avisbronn's Noble Phantasm. Others include Astolfo and Mordred are both secondary targets.

From Fiore's words, Artoria learned that Avisbronn was killed by Amakusa Shiro Tokisada because of his master, Roche.

With the help of Semiramis's Sky Garden and the chaos caused by the stolen Great Holy Grail, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada boldly entered Black's castle and found Avisbronn and Roche.

Amakusa Shiro Tokisada sincerely invited Avisbron to join the red team, and also claimed that he would fully help the other party complete his Noble Phantasm... as long as Roche was used as the heart of the golem.

However, perhaps because of the previous conversation with Artoria... This time, Avisbronn made a completely different choice.

He rescued Luo Xie from the hands of Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, but at the cost of his own spiritual core being broken.

"The Master of Caster must be in pain...the teacher he most admired and admired died because of him."

Arturia didn't know whether what she did was right or wrong.

She just did what she felt she should do.

A lot of times it was like this time...someone got hurt because of the choices she made.

"Since waking up, Luo Xie has been shutting himself in his room... He has not even gone to his favorite golem workshop."

"Maybe it's because the familiar environment there reminds him of Caster... I hope he can get over the pain of separation as soon as possible."

"yes……"

There was some worry in Fiore's eyes. This kind character made her stand out among the group of magicians.

Just like everyone else on the black side, even Fiore's brother Cores, is thinking about tonight's decisive battle, and Luo Xie, who has lost his servant, has long lost value in their eyes, just like Like a broken toy, he was thrown in a corner and no one cared about him, and no one cared about his thoughts and sorrows.

But this may actually be a blessing for Luo Xie, because in addition to being discarded, broken toys may also be sold in exchange for other values. For example, in the original work, Gold lost his After Siegfried, Darnic and Avisbronn planned to use it as the hearth of [Crown: Light of Wisdom].

Chapter 231 Mordred and Frankenstein

After hearing what happened to Luo Xie, Artoria still felt a little sorry.

After all, Avisbron made such a choice because he listened to her words.

But then she thought about it... Without her, Luo Xie might have been treated as the heart of Avisbron and died, and he would have died after being betrayed by the person he loved the most.

It is said that everything is most afraid of comparison.

After such a comparison, Artoria suddenly felt...that she had nothing to be sorry for Luo Xie?

On the contrary, maybe Luo Xie should thank her?

Afterwards, Artoria also learned about Black's current combat strength.

Of course, from Fiore.

The exit of Caster Avesbron is a serious loss of combat power for the Black side, because with the exit of Avesbron, the puppet army and Adam puppets that had spent so much time and energy to build up disappeared.

In addition, the previously captured Berserker Spartacus of the Red side also left the stage.

Before, after killing Avesbron, Amakusa Shiro Tokisada was discovered by the Black side's servants as a matter of course.

Although Amakusa Shiro Tokisada is also a servant, his combat power is actually not very high... at least not high among the servants.

So, in order to escape successfully, Amakusa Shiro Tokisada used some method to make Spartacus crazy, causing chaos, and even made him self-destruct in the end.

Literally self-destruct.

Spartacus's treasure [Roar of the Flawed Beast] can convert all attacks received into magic power to strengthen himself, and when the converted magic power reaches the limit of the body, it will explode.

Therefore, at least two-thirds of the castle of Eugdomrenia was reduced to ruins not because of Semiramis's Sky Garden, but because of Spartacus's self-explosion.

And it was also because of that explosion that Amakusa Shiro Tokisada escaped safely.

Hearing this, Artoria once again admired Amakusa Shiro Tokisada in her heart.

Not only did he have strategy and ambition, but he also had courage. He actually broke into the enemy's base alone, and his results were amazing. Apart from the Greater Holy Grail, he also killed two servants.

No wonder so many people were indignant that such a person lost to Sieg.

So, the remaining combat power of the black side is...

Saber Siegfried, Archer Chiron, Lancer Vlad III, Berserker Frankenstein.

A total of four servants.

Then, it is the combat power of the red side's servants...

Well, Artoria doesn't know.

The only two Red Forces that are confirmed to be alive are Assassin Semiramis and Lancer Karna.

Although the Sky Garden was shot down by her [Glittering Spear of the End], it was not completely disintegrated, indicating that the owner of the Noble Phantasm is still there.

As for Karna, it is because Artoria believes that the other party will not die so easily, and even the power of the Holy Spear should not be able to destroy him with one shot.

Oh, by the way, I almost forgot about Mordred.
