My Mom Sandy Love Song

"Good morning, Master, Lancer."

Morgan pushed open the dining room door.

"Oh, good morning, Caster."

After Morgan sat down on the chair, Rhodes turned to her quickly.

The young man who had been toyed with by Miss Witch for a whole morning decided to take a small revenge on her.

"Caster, are you feeling unwell today?"

Morgan blew on the black tea and said calmly, "Why do you say that?"

"Oh... because I saw that your walking posture just now seemed a little strange."

The instigator who made her into this kind of evil said with a malicious smile.

"..."

"Is it really okay, Caster, if you feel uncomfortable, you should tell everyone?"

Rhodes didn't notice that when he teased Caster, Artoria frowned.

An imperceptible blush appeared on his face, Morgan replied calmly: "...I have no problem, very healthy. Thank you Master for your concern."

"Is there really no problem? Ah...Caster."

Rhode reached out and stroked her white and smooth neck: "You were bitten by a bug, and there are several red marks on your neck."

"...It's so noisy, Master. Do you want to be bitten too?"

Rhodes and Morgan looked at each other for a few seconds.

At first it was a tit-for-tat gaze, and then it gradually softened.

Both Rhodes and Morgan's faces turned red.

"I'm stuffed."

The awe-inspiring voice interrupted them who were looking at each other enthusiastically.

Artoria got up from the table, turned around and left the restaurant gracefully.

……

Then, the time turned to night.

It was a quiet, moonless night.

There is a breeze in the forest, and the trees rustle like whispers.

There are no birds that sing about winter, nor beasts that bark at the moon.

Walking on the long stone stairs leading to Liudong Temple, Rhodes had a showdown with the two servants following him.

"It's a pity, but I must tell you one fact——

The Fuyuki Great Holy Grail located in the basement of Ryuto-ji Temple in front of you cannot make a wish. "

Artoria: "..."

Morgan: "..."

It should be the news of a bolt from the blue, but the faces of the two of them were extremely calm, as if they had been faintly aware of it a long time ago.

Rhodes continued.

"During the third Holy Grail War, the Einzbern family used foreign classics as a catalyst to attempt to summon the Dark Lord God in Persian mythology——

【Angra Manuel】. "

After hearing this name, the calm expressions of both sisters changed.

Angela Mainyu, the only evil in the dualism of good and evil, the source of all evil and darkness.

As the biggest demon of Zoroastrianism, he has been at war with the God of Light who protects the goodness of human beings for 9000 years, and he is the acknowledgment of evil.

Morgan raised his eyebrows: "Angra Mainu? Can the Fuyuki Holy Grail War summon servants of the main god's standard?"

"Ah, so Einzbern's summoning failed. They only summoned a young man who was worshiped as a living sacrifice by a demon."

Rhodes began to tell what happened to the young man.

On an ordinary morning, his limbs and eyes were smashed out by fellow villagers, and he was placed alive in an altar.

The villagers regarded him as a demon, insulting, cursing, and blaspheming this ordinary youth day after day, year after year.

Until his physical body completely rotted, and even his existence was forgotten by everyone, he still did not die.

What kind of resentment such a sad life will accumulate, ordinary people must not be able to imagine——

"He was defeated quickly, and his soul was absorbed by the Holy Grail.

But Angela Mainyu is a demon-worshipping collective wish, so entering the Grail is tantamount to making a diabolical wish.

From then on, no matter how beautiful a wish you make to the Holy Grail, that thought will be distorted and turned into a wish that leads to evil. "

"Understood, in short, as long as the Holy Grail is destroyed before that thing comes out of the Holy Grail."

After listening to Rhodes' description, Arturia said calmly.

It turned out to be such a thing... Gradually, she understood the reason why she was summoned to this era.

From the very beginning, my opponent was not Rhodes, but the [All Evil in This World] hidden in the Holy Grail.

From the very beginning, Master and I have been strangers who have nothing to do with each other...

She pursed her lips expressionlessly.

"Ah, that's it. Using Lancer's [Anti-City Noble Phantasm] should be able to solve it with one shot.

I'm sorry... I've been hiding such an important matter until now. "

The Knight King's reaction was as expected by Rhodes, and he turned to Morgan.

Miss Witch sullenly puffed up at him.

... Sure enough, it is still unacceptable.

That's true, after all, she traveled 1500 years to this era to pursue the Holy Grail, but in the end she returned empty-handed——

"The blackened holy grail, isn't that the imitation of the Master? It's really unpleasant."

Morgan folded his arms and said angrily.

Is this the reason for anger... Rhodes smiled wryly.

In the conversation, the long stone steps are coming to an end.

"!?"

When they saw the mountain gate, everyone showed expressions of astonishment.

At the end of the stairs stood a figure.

His strong body was dressed in a majestic black armor.

The cloudy pupils are like inorganic matter, without emotion.

In the man's hand was an epee that exuded ominous magic power in the polar night.

——That was Saber Gawain who should have disappeared with Director Ken's Command Seal lifted.

"...Gao Wenqing."

As a gust of wind blew, Artoria wove magic armor while squinting her eyes.

"Is that so... have you returned from the bottom of darkness because you failed to fulfill your knight oath with me?"

From Rhodes' explanation just now, she also realized that this Holy Grail War was extraordinary, so she was not too surprised by the current situation.

"—"

Gao Wen didn't answer, but set up the inverted holy sword in his hand.

After being eroded by the black mud, he has lost his language and reason, and now standing here is just a killing machine.

"Master—"

At the same time, Artoria glanced at the two people beside her.

Rhodes nodded and grabbed Morgan's wrist.

"Ah, I see, the battle here is left to Lancer.

Let's go, Caster. "

"Lan...Artoria."

Morgan, who was dragged by Rhodes to walk quickly through the mountain gate, suddenly turned his head and called out to his sister.

"Gao Wen will leave it to you, let him be relieved."

"Even if you don't tell me that's what I plan to do, though."
