Ding, ding, ding, ding…
The sound of bowls and chopsticks clashing could be heard on the Wei Gong family's dining table.
Although everyone (except Saber) was a civilized person who ate very slowly, it was still quite crowded for six people to sit at the dining table.
Especially the two German maids. Although they knew how to use chopsticks, their mechanical actions of picking up food, sending it into their mouths, and swallowing were too terrifying. It made the others 'fingers stiffen.
After about 30 minutes, the cold lunch was over, and Emiya Shiro took the initiative to clean up the dishes and hide in the kitchen. This guy must have run away to clear his name.
Ling and Saber took a sip of hot tea in unison, then placed the teacup back on the table with a soft thud.
"So, how does Mr. Roman intend to deal with Miss Elijah Sophie van Einzbelen?”
Ling used the tone of a judge questioning a prisoner in court to ask this question. His slightly narrowed cat eyes stared at Luo Men emotionlessly.
This was definitely a divorce lawsuit for custody. Luo Men only dared to complain in his heart. He coughed twice and said,
" Hmm…I don't think Ilya has any intention of going against us. Besides, Berserker is very weak now. I don't think it's a problem to treat him as an enemy…"
"This is another matter. First, please tell me why you went to Ainz Belem's castle without telling me.”
Ling coldly interrupted Luo Men. Luo Men could only let out a hollow laugh.
It would be useless to use the excuse of scouting the enemy's situation or searching for information at this time…Moreover, it seems that they don't want to know the answer, but rather, they just want to cause trouble for me…What should I do…
Luo Men frowned and thought hard for a few seconds. After losing hundreds of brain cells that were usually lazy and didn't work, Luo Men's eyes widened.
"Saber, Gilgamesh is still alive.”
"Eh…? Gilga…what?"
"It's that shiny golden one, the one you chopped off.”
“——！”
Saber gasped and stood up as if he had knocked over a table.
Her actions surprised Ling, and he looked at her strangely.
Saber didn't know who the heroic spirit that had defeated him with overwhelming strength was, but Roman had mentioned it so casually. Moreover, from his tone, it seemed like he had known about it a long time ago.
"Luo Men, do you know anything about that guy? Although I said I would wait for you to tell me…how much do you know?”
"I do know a little. That guy wasn't from this batch, but from the previous batch. He obtained enough magic power to obtain a body and lived here for ten years like an ordinary human.”
"Hey, what are you talking about?”
Ling looked back and forth between the two of them suspiciously.
Good! He changed the topic!
After successfully provoking Saber's emotions, Roman calmly took a sip of tea and began to explain Gilgamesh's identity to the two.
As for the reason why he knew that Saber and Gilgamesh had fought, Roman explained that he had seen a part of Saber's memories in his dream after signing the contract with her. Yesterday, when he went to Ainsberm's castle, he happened to encounter that guy's attack.
"Although I opened a hole in that guy's heart, that guy disappeared too quickly. I'm afraid he was summoned back by the Master's command spell. Although it was a fatal injury, it should not have died so easily.”
“……”
Ling and Saber listened to Luo Men's words silently. Their expressions were extremely grim.
There was a heroic spirit who had survived the last Holy Grail War, and it was the most ancient king of humans who was so powerful that it defied the heavens. Gilgamesh, who possessed all the original forms of the Treasured Artifacts…
Although it was the cooperation of three Heroic Spirits, it was also thanks to Berserker's continuous resurrection that they managed to find a flaw and defeat him. If he were to fight while he was prepared, the outcome would not be certain.
After seeing the two of them accept it, Luo Men's expression became slightly serious and he said righteously,
"Saber, I'm sorry. It's not just about that shiny golden thing. I know everything about you.”
"…Is that so?"
Saber raised his head and smiled gently at Roman.
"It's alright. I never intended to hide anything from Ling and Luo Men. But that meant that Elijah Sophie's identity was also…?”
"Yes, I am. This matter has something to do with you, Eemiya Shiro.”
Luo Men called out to Shi Lang, who had been very concerned about the topic, and asked him to come out of the kitchen. After he sat down at the table, Roman dropped the bomb.
"Amiya Qietsi was a participant in the last Holy Grail War, and Ilya is his daughter.”
Under Shi Lang's shocked expression and Saber's complicated expression, Luo Men slowly revealed the relationship between Wei Gong Qiesi and the Ainz Baylon family.
A genetically-modified cyborg, a body that didn't live long, a Berserker that was summoned after suffering from torture, and the idea of taking revenge on his father who abandoned him... Roman told him all of this.
In the end, even Ling lowered his head with a heavy expression and covered his mouth with his hand.
Luo Men didn't want to show off Ilya's past, he just wanted them to understand. No matter how one looked at it, it was too much to treat such a child as an enemy.
"…I understand now. I admit that Ilya Sophie is not a bad person.”
After a while, Ling was the first to recover. He folded his arms and sighed with a stern expression.
"But that doesn't mean I'm willing to accept her. Unlike Edemiya Shiro, she's an experienced magician, probably even better than me. Moreover, Berserker was still here. This situation was like inviting a wolf into the house.”
"But she no longer has any intention of killing us.”
"Even so, she wouldn't give up on Berserker, right? Luo Men, I know you don't want to kill anyone…but there can only be one winner in the Holy Grail War.”
Ling looked at Saber with a complicated expression. Saber smiled and nodded.
If he did not kill the heroic spirit, the Holy Grail would not appear. Cutting down the number of Heroic Spirits was a ritual to summon the Holy Grail. Even if it was Solomon and Saber, they would have to fight each other one day.
Of course, Roman knew about this. A few days ago, he was prepared to protect Saber. However, after Rider joined his side, his plans changed.
"Then don't summon the Holy Grail.”
Luo Men said casually.
"Although killing a Heroic Spirit can summon the Holy Grail, the Holy Grail will still descend after a certain period of time. It's just that at that time, it will be an incomplete Holy Grail. After destroying the Holy Grail, the war would end. Although it would be difficult to provide the Heroic Spirit's mana later, it was not impossible. He would consider this problem when the time came.”
"Wait! What did you say? You don't want the Holy Grail?"
Ling leaned against the table in shock, her pretty face completely distorted.
Luo Men wasn't affected. After taking a few sips of tea, he began to explain.
The topic this time was that the Holy Grail was not an all-purpose wishing machine, but the source of pollution.
