The sorrow

The venue of the banquet was chosen to be beside the flower bed in the castle's courtyard. The battle last night did not affect this place, and it did not seem shabby to use it to entertain guests. At this time, no one cared about the cold outside.

Rider brought the wine bottle to the courtyard, and the three Servants sat down facing each other. Luo Tianyi, on the other hand, went to sit beside Wu Mi and Wilbur. She wanted to try the so-called wine Rider mentioned, but she was pushed aside by Niven Moore's words,'You're still a child,' and a precise hand-knife.

As for Wu Mi and Wilbur, they were guessing the development of the situation. They realized that this meant a temporary truce, and they only needed to watch from the side.

Rider smashed the lid of the bucket with his fist, and the rich aroma of red wine filled the air in the courtyard.

"Although the shape is very strange, this is a wine vessel unique to this country.”

Rider said proudly as he scooped a spoonful of wine with a bamboo spoon. Unfortunately, no one could point out his common sense mistake.

Rider finished the wine in one gulp and said,"

"I heard that only those who are qualified can obtain the Holy Grail.”

His serious tone calmed the atmosphere. This man actually spoke in such a tone. She felt that something was wrong.

" And the ceremony to select the qualified person is the battle in Fuyoki. But if you're just watching, there's no need to bleed. "As heroic spirits, if we can recognize each other's abilities, there's no need for me to say anything else.”

“……”

Saber took the spoon from Rider without hesitation and scooped a spoonful of wine.

Saber's thin body always made people worry if she could really drink. However, judging from her drinking style, she was not inferior to Rider at all. Rider praised happily.

"So, first of all, you want to compete with me to see who is stronger? Rider。”

" That's right. A real contest in the name of 'king'. However, this won't be called the' Holy Grail War 'anymore. It'll be better to call it the' Holy Grail Quiz 'instead…In the end, between the Knight King and the Conqueror King, who will become the King of the Holy Grail? It was the perfect question to ask the wine glass.”

Rider's serious tone was replaced by a mischievous smile. Then, he spoke as if he was talking to himself.

"Oh, right, there's also you, Creator, who calls yourself the Demon King?”Rider then turned to look at the silent Navenmoor.

"Ah, speaking of which, there's someone here who calls himself 'King'.”

"-enough jokes, you bastard.”

It was as if he was responding to Rider's words. A dazzling golden light flashed in front of everyone.

"Archer, you're finally here.”The sudden appearance of the golden figure made Saber and Wu Mi's bodies stiffen. As for Rider, he greeted him with a smile.

"Haha, Saber, don't be so excited. I met Archer on the street and asked him to come over for a drink, but he's still late. However, unlike me, he walked on foot, so I can't blame him.”

Archer, who was wearing armor, stared at Rider with his red eyes.

"To think that you chose such a lousy place to hold a banquet. This is all you have. How are you going to apologize for making me come here?”

"Don't say that. Come, have a drink first.”

Rider smiled and handed a spoon full of wine to Archer. She thought that he would be angered by Rider's attitude, but she didn't expect him to simply take the spoon and drink the wine in one gulp.

This was the so-called King's Challenge, and at this moment, the four Kings had already gathered.

Since Archer, the Golden Heroic Spirit whose identity was unknown, called himself " King," he would not reject Rider's offer of wine.

"What kind of inferior wine is this? How can you use this wine to fight between heroes?”

Archer said with disgust.

"Is that so? I bought it from the market here. It's not bad.”

"That's because you don't know anything about wine, you bastard.”

A void vortex appeared beside Archer, who scoffed. This was a sign of the strange phenomenon that could summon precious artifacts. Wilbur and Wu Mi only felt a chill run down their spines.

But tonight, what appeared beside Archer was not weapons, but a series of wine sets inlaid with dazzling gems. The heavy golden bottle was filled with a clear, colorless liquid.

"Look, this is the 'King's Wine.”

"Oh, I'm so touched."

Rider didn't mind Archer's tone at all. He happily poured the new wine into four glasses.

At this moment, Navenmore, who had been motionless all this while, was the first to raise his wine glass.

"It looks pretty good…I wonder how it tastes.”Shaking the clear liquid in his hand, Navenmore smiled.

"Naturally, it will be more delicious than you can imagine. This is the best wine in the world!”The golden Archer said disdainfully.

Niven Moore took a sip of the liquid in his cup and nodded in satisfaction.

"It's not bad. Although it can't compare to my wine, it should be considered an extremely good product in the human world.”

"How is that possible? What kind of wine can compare to my fine wine? Be it wine or swords, my treasure vault only has the best things. How can there be anything more delicious than my wine in this world?”The golden Archer's scarlet eyes met Navenmoor's.

" Oh, delicious!!"

Rider took a sip and immediately widened his eyes in praise.

"Although I don't know if it's like what Creator said, there are even more delicious wines. This is definitely the best wine I've ever drunk. This is definitely not wine brewed by humans.”

Saber was still quite wary of Archer, who she didn't know much about. She looked at the wine in the golden bottle hesitantly, but after Rider and Creator drank it, if she didn't drink it, it would seem like she lost to them. Tonight's competition wasn't a battle, but a competition of status and tolerance as a king.

Even though Saber was a woman, she was still drinking in a straightforward manner. Rider couldn't help but cheer for her. When the wine flowed down his throat, Saber felt his head swell. This was indeed a good wine that she had never tasted before. It was strong and clean, fragrant and refreshing. The strong fragrance filled her nose and she felt like she was floating.

"Alright, pitch-black fellow, take out the so-called better wine you mentioned, or are you bragging wantonly?”Satisfied with Rider and Saber's reaction, Archer smiled leisurely. He sat down and swirled the wine glass in his hand.

"It's a pity that it's not the wine of this world.”Shaking his wine glass, Navenmore said regretfully," That's a fine wine brewed from souls that wail in despair. Think about it, when the wine swirls around your tongue, you feel the trembling and madness in your soul.”

As he spoke, Navenmore stood up excitedly. His face, which could not be seen clearly in the shadows, had a terrifying scarlet luster.

" Experiencing that madness, that sadness, that wailing…" He waved his hands as if he was intoxicated." That delicious soul is really fascinating.”

"Evil path!"

"Not bad."

"It really feels like the description of my wine is inferior.”

The three Kings gave three different evaluations. Rider didn't comment on Saber's words, but Archer mocked him mercilessly.

"Evil path? Don't tell me that as a king, your hands have never been stained with the blood of the innocent.”

"Playing with the souls of the dead and brewing wine? If this isn't evil, what is it?" Saber retorted coldly.

"Righteousness and courtesy? Saber, don't you think it's ridiculous to say this to a demon like me? The beauty of the soul is not something that mortals like you can understand.”At the side, Navenmoor smiled disdainfully and said.

"Therefore, I will definitely punish you personally!,I will definitely get Ellie back!" Saber looked at Navenmoor and declared war without hesitation.

"Then I look forward to the battle in the future. However, you should first settle your grudge with Lancer. With your current attitude, you probably won't be my opponent.”Looking at Saber's left wrist, Navenmore had a playful expression.
