The flames were burning, and the scorching temperature enveloped the entire area. The ground was broken, and broken weapons stained with blood were scattered on the ground. Countless armored warriors fell to the ground, and their bodies were covered with vicious wounds. Their bodies were cold, and their blood dyed the ground red. Clearly, they were corpses. On a small mountain of corpses, a figure stood at the top.
She was King Arthur, Altolia. Pendragon!
Her face was stained with blood, and her hand was tightly holding the sword. The sword was stabbed into the ground. At this moment, she was kneeling on one knee with her head lowered, and her shoulders were trembling.
The fourth Holy Grail War had ended, but she met the fallen Lancelot. She did not obtain the Holy Grail.
She wasn't a qualified king. She didn't deserve to be a king. She thought so.
If she had not become the king, Britain would not have been destroyed.
That was why she wanted everything to start from the beginning. She wanted the Holy Grail to start from the beginning with the power of the Holy Grail.
Her heart was filled with regret.
"It's fine if it's not the Holy Grail. Do you need me to fulfill your wish?”The space in front of Altolia suddenly distorted, and then a small figure wrapped in green flew out with thin wings. Green light shone around her, and her cute nose sniffed slightly, as if she was dissatisfied with the strong smell of blood. Then, under Altolia's surprised gaze, she opened her fair hands, and green light spread out from her hands. The grass and trees on the ground instantly grew crazily, and the fire was extinguished. The air became fresh and natural.
"Who are you?" Even though Altolia was in grief, he managed to calm himself down and looked at the little fairy warily.
"My name is Liu Yu, the space-time system's guide.”Liu Yu flew around in the air and looked around curiously, as if she was abnormally interested in this living world.
"Space-time system?" Altolia was confused.
" You don't have to care too much about it. What you need to care about now is that I can fulfill your wish, and the condition is to sign a contract with the Space-Time System.”Liuyu chuckled and waved her hand in front of Altolia's eyes. The air rippled like a clear lake, and golden words appeared out of thin air.
It was unknown which language the golden words belonged to, but Altolia understood what they meant.
It was similar to the Holy Grail battle, but there was only one enemy. As long as one could win, they would have the right to make a wish. If they failed, they would forever become the servant of the space-time system host.
"This is gambling, right? I bet my freedom and a wish.”Altolia said as he looked at Liuyu, who was running around.
"Gambling? No, this is an equivalent exchange." "This is only a part of the contract. It should be said that it's a part that's beneficial to you."”
"The battle between you and the space-time system host at the beginning was not so much a gamble as a test.”
"Test?"
"Yes, it's a test. In the original situation, you would have a chance to fulfill your wish if you won the gamble, but not this time! You will never be able to win, so you can treat it as a test for the host of the space-time system. You will judge whether he can become a competent Master, and then he will fulfill your wish.”
"Why not this time?"
"I'll tell you later. Now, you just have to choose.”
"Then I have another question to ask you. What will happen if the host you mentioned loses the battle with me?”
"You will die." Liu Yu said solemnly.
"In other words, after I sign the contract, it's equivalent to becoming that host's follower.”Artolia stared at Liuyu and said,""How did you judge that I would lose to that host? Is he stronger than me?”
"No, you are stronger than him now.”Liu Yu shook her head and said firmly,"But he will definitely become stronger. He will surpass you and become the victor.”
"Are you very confident in him?"
"Not towards him, but towards my eyes!”All of a sudden, Liu Yu's temperament changed. She was like a high and mighty ruler."And I won't allow him to lose to you.”
In an instant, a huge pressure descended. Saber felt as if the world had collapsed at that moment, but the pressure disappeared in an instant. The world remained the same, and nothing had changed.
" Life is a gamble. You're at that crossroads now. You've already made a mistake once, so now is another chance. You contracted with this world to become a Heroic Spirit and lost your freedom for the Holy Grail of the Universal Wishing Machine, but you failed this time. Why don't you try another method? It's the same contract, and you'll also lose your freedom, but it'll give you a chance to fulfill your wish.”Liuyu's tone was a little bewitching. If it was normal, Altolia might have considered it carefully, but she had just participated in the fourth Holy Grail War, so she was tempted.
"As for whether you choose to form a contract or not, it's your business. I'm just putting an opportunity in front of you. If you give up, I'll look for someone else.”Liu Yu looked at Altolia and added fuel to the fire.
Looking up at the sky, Altolia smiled.""Then let's give it a try. But if the host you mentioned doesn't meet my conditions, then even if we die together, I won't agree to become a follower.”
"You won't have the chance." Liu Yu's back was facing Altolia, and a strange smile appeared on her face.
In the courtyard, the sun shone brightly and gently.
Zhang Yuhang looked at Saber speechlessly."I think I understand the reason, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the words 'equivalent exchange.'”
"Uh…I can't tell Master what happens next.”Saber turned his head away, his eyes drifting, and his voice gradually became softer.
"Alright, I don't want to ask anymore. I didn't expect you to talk for so long in one breath.”Zhang Yuhang sighed lightly and glanced at Blackpupil, who was standing silently beside him. He asked,""Blackpupil, how's your interaction with your sister recently?”
"Sister is just a little busy, but I will find time to see her these few days.”Blackpupil said with a gentle smile. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something and looked at Zhang Yuhang."Husband, it seems that General Aiders has won today and returned to court. The minister seems to have invited you to go to court to see General Aiders.”
“……”
Zhang Yuhang shuddered when he recalled her gaze that seemed to want to swallow him when they first met. This queen-like woman is very difficult to deal with. However, with his current strength, there's no need to be afraid. It's just that it's very troublesome to get along with him. Forget it, then I'll go and meet him. I don't believe that anything will happen! Zhang Yuhang thought to himself.
