Two-dimensional Light Control

"you are wrong."

Rider firmly and solemnly denied her words.

"It is not the king who sacrifices himself, but the country and the people who dedicate their everything to the king. Make no mistake about this."

"What did you say--"

Saber couldn't hold back her anger any longer, she shouted.

"—Isn't that a tyrant! Rider, Archer, it's a big mistake for you to be such a king!"

"Indeed. But we're not just tyrants, we're heroes."

Rider replied calmly, without even moving his eyebrows.

"So Saber, if there is a king who is dissatisfied with the results of his governance of the country, it can only mean that he is a fool, worse than a tyrant."

Unlike Winky, who kept laughing at Saber, Rider fundamentally denied her. Saber frowned, and retorted in a sharp tone:

"Iskandar, you... the empire you created was finally divided into four parts. Are you really not unhappy about this? Don't you want to do it all over again and save the country?"

"Do not want to."

The King of Conquerors replied immediately, holding his chest out, looking directly into the stern gaze of the King of Knights.

"If my decision and my courtiers lead to this, then destruction is inevitable. I will mourn and cry, but I will never regret it."

"how come……"

"Not to mention the attempt to subvert history! This kind of stupid behavior is an insult to all the human beings in the era I built!"

For Rider's arrogant words, Saber denied:

"You're just saying this based on the glory of the warrior. The people don't think so, what they need is salvation."

"You mean they want the king's salvation?"

Rider shrugged and laughed.

"I don't understand! What's the point of this kind of thing?"

"This is the duty of a king!"

This time it was Saber's turn to speak proudly:

"Right rule, right order, this is what all subjects expect."

"Then you are the 'correct' slave?"

"You can say that. Dedicating your life to your ideals is worthy of being a king."

Without a trace of doubt, the young knight king nodded.

"Through the king, people can understand law and order. The king should not embody something that goes away with the king's death, but something more noble."

Looking at Saber who was still determined, Rider on the side shook his head as if pitying her.

"It's not a path of survival that a man would choose."

"Yes. Since you are born as a king, you can't expect to live the life of ordinary people."

In order to become the perfect monarch, in order to become the embodiment of ideals, she is willing to give up her body and throw away her personal relationships.The life of a girl named Arturia changed completely the moment she pulled that sword out of the rock.Since then, she has become synonymous with undefeated legends, hymns and dreams.

There has been pain, there has been trouble, but it contains the glory of victory.The belief that will never change supports her sword-holding arm to this day.

"King of Conquerors, someone like you who only cares about yourself will not understand my beliefs. You are just a tyrant who is carried away by desire!"

Saber snapped.Rider, who was reprimanded, immediately opened his eyes.

"A king without desire is better than a vase."

Rider's angry shouts and his huge body made him even more terrifying. ...

"Saber, you just said 'dedicate yourself to your ideals'. Indeed, you were a clean saint in the past, unparalleled in holiness. But who would expect to be martyred for an ideal? Who would think day and night for a so-called saint? , can only comfort the people, but cannot guide the people. Only by showing desire and sing-along the most glorious glory, can the country and the people be led to the right path.”

After draining the wine in the glass, the Conqueror continued to correct him. "As a king, one must have stronger desires than anyone else, be bolder than anyone else, and be more irritable than anyone else. He should be a human being who contains both purity and turbidity, and is more real than anyone else. Only in this way , the courtiers will be convinced by the king, and the people will have the vision of 'if only I were the king' in their hearts!"

"Such governance... so where's the justice?"

"No. There is no justice in the way of kings, so there is no remorse."

"..."

His assertion was too blunt, and Saber was already furious.

Both are based on making the people happy, but their ideas are far from one another.

On one side is praying for peace.

On one side is hope for prosperity.

The king who suppressed the chaotic world and the king who caused the chaos of war naturally couldn't have the same philosophy.

Rider smiled and said cheerfully.

"King who bears the name of a knight, your justice and ideals may have saved the country and the people for a while, so your name will be passed down to this day. However, what happened to those who were saved? You don't know it, do you."

……

"What did you say?"

Bloody Sunset Hill.

That scene revived in Saber's mind again.

"You blindly 'saved' your subjects, but never 'guided' them. They don't know what 'the king's desire' is. You have left your lost subjects, but alone, with a holy gesture, serve your own A kind of petty ideal intoxication.

So you are not a qualified king.You just want to be a 'king' who thinks about the people, a little girl who is cocooning herself to be that kind of idol. "

"I……"

There are many words to refute, but every time he speaks, the scene he once witnessed in Cam Ranh Bay will appear before him.

The corpses were all over the field, and the blood flowed into rivers.There lay her courtiers, her friends, and her relatives.

She knew the prophecy the moment she drew the sword from the rock.She knew it meant shattering, and she had already made up her mind.

but why……

When she saw this tragic scene with her own eyes, she was so surprised that she felt that she could do nothing but pray.

There are also magicians who have predicted that subversion is almost impossible.But she still thought, if a miracle could really happen...

A dangerous thought took over Saber's mind.

If you don't protect Britain as your savior.But if he ravaged England as an overlord——

Troubled times are only made more chaotic by the scourge of war.First of all, this is not the king's road she pursues.And no matter what angle she stood at, the one named Artoria would not choose this option.

But if he really did that, which would be more tragic than the Battle of the Sword...

Chapter 510: Lily Arrives

At this moment Saber was completely immersed in her own thoughts.

At that time, I didn't notice that Niang Xing looked at her distressed look with great interest.

After all, Saber and Lily are so much alike, every time she sees Saber, she thinks of Lily.

When she thinks of Lily, she naturally thinks of Anyang, and then what Anyang did to herself.

What a shame.

Maybe she wasn't the opponent of Anyang's bastard god, but seeing Saber, who was almost exactly like Lily, looked so distressed, made her very happy.

If Anyang can also show such a performance, it will definitely be very charming, right?

Niang Shining thought in her heart.

Suddenly, at this time, Niang Shining, King Conqueror, and Saber suddenly looked at a place.

The "September [-]" situation of the three of them immediately made Emiya Kiritsugu and Weber puzzled for a while.

"Since my friend is here, why don't you show up and see him?"

The King of Conquerors said suddenly at this time, which surprised Emiya Kiritsugu and Weber.

There are still people?

And they didn't find it, so that means, it's definitely a heroic spirit?

So who will it be?

Emiya Kiritsugu and Weber thought quickly in their hearts.

At this moment, a burst of light appeared, and a woman dressed in white who was almost identical to Saber appeared in front of everyone.

Seeing her appearance, everyone was taken aback.

After all, the woman in front of her is exactly the same as Saber.

At the same time, everyone was full of curiosity about her origin and purpose.

This woman is Lily.

"I don't know if your Excellency is..."

The Conqueror was a little puzzled. Among these people, only he and Weber had never seen her.

When Emiya Kiritsugu saw Lily, a killing intent emerged in his heart.

Because after seeing her, it immediately reminded him of what happened that day, and Irisviel's betrayal...

However, he didn't do it.

Because he knew that he would never be the opponent of Heroic Spirit.

Moreover, there are so many heroic spirits gathered here, once he makes a move, maybe he will become an existence that everyone is hostile to.

If that's the case, it's really not worth it.

"I heard that the King's Banquet is being held here, so as a king, I will naturally come."

Lily saw several heroic spirits looking at her together without any fear.

She doesn't need to be afraid, nor is she afraid of any challenges.
