"My name is Iskandar the Conqueror. He participated in the Holy Grail War and obtained the rank of Rider.”
Just like in the original novel, the red-haired man opened his hands and smiled boldly. He ignored the most basic rules of the Holy Grail War and revealed his true name in front of multiple Heroic Spirits and Masters.
Such courage, even Rope was amazed.
As expected of Alexander.
"What are you thinking, idiot!!”
However, his Master, Wilbur, didn't think so. He was bluffing as he questioned Rider while holding onto Rider's coat tightly. Tears and snot were flowing out of his eyes.
Puff.
The bull's merciless boos echoed in the night air, and Webb's protesting voice fell silent. Rider ignored Master's protest and looked at Lancer and Saber on both sides."
"All of you are killing each other for the Holy Grail…Before you fight, I have something to ask you. I don't know what kind of expectations you have for the Holy Grail. However, he had to think about it now. Are your wishes even more important than the ambitions of heaven and earth?”
Compared to Lancer, Saber understood what the man was trying to say.
"You…What are you trying to say?”Lancer asked.
"Hmm? I made it very clear."
Rider still maintained his dignity, but his tone had become much gentler and more harmonious.
"I descended upon the battlefield. Do you have any intention of giving me the Holy Grail? If you give me the Holy Grail, I will treat you as friends and share the joy of conquering the world with you.”
“……”
These seemingly nonsensical words contained the path of a king's life. Saber remained silent in the face of such a suggestion, while Lancer stood there, not knowing what to say.
Seeing this scene, Rope sighed and walked out.
"Conquest King, don't you think your suggestion is too naive?”
"Oh? Why did you say that? You're Lancer's Master.”Rider looked at Rope with interest and stroked his chin with one hand. "This is indeed the method I have in mind. How can I be naive?”
That's what you think, but that doesn't mean that he's the same as you…
"Those who descended here were all extraordinary heroes born in their era.”
Rope explained calmly.
" They complied with the Dharma and Logos of the Holy Grail. Didn't they descend into this world to fulfill their unfulfilled wishes when they were alive? Your words are equivalent to making them give up their beliefs.”
" This…" Even Rider felt that his words were a little inappropriate.
"That's right. Although I admire your boldness when you introduced yourself just now, but…I find it difficult to agree to your suggestion.”
Lancer came back to his senses and shook his head with a bitter smile, but there was no smile in his eyes. His eyes, which were as sharp as swords, were filled with power. When they collided with the Conqueror King's disdainful gaze, sparks flew.
"Just as my Master said, I will hold the Holy Grail. This is the oath I made to the only ruler of this world. The one who holds the Holy Grail is definitely not you. Rider。”
"Conqueror King, although I understand your beliefs, I have to say again that this is an intolerable insult to a knight. I will not accept your conditions.”Saber seemed to have woken up from his silence.
Both Lancer and Saber looked at Rider with hostility. Rider seemed to be in a difficult position as he mumbled " hmm " and unconsciously pressed his fists against his temples. Rider couldn't help but make a helpless gesture, but his imposing posture didn't waver at all. In fact, Rider could be said to be a person with a very rare presence.
"…Are you trying to negotiate with me?”
"Alexander the Great, let's stop joking.”
Rope spread his hands and said, trying to divert the trouble. "The golden-haired lady in front of you is King Arthur of Britain. As a king, don't you think you're looking down on me?”
"This little girl is a king?"
Rider's eyes widened as he observed Saber. It seemed like he was too far away to hear Saber's real name.
"That's right, I am the king of Britain.”
Saber didn't seem to want to say anything more to Rider, so he introduced him in a flat tone.
…Something was wrong.
Rope frowned deeply.
All of this did not make any sense. Based on Saber's personality, she would have explained herself angrily even if she did not do anything to Rider. However, her expression was too calm.
It was as if…he had encountered something similar before.
There was a problem, a big problem.
Rope clenched his fists and rubbed his thumb with his index finger, feeling a little anxious.
From the beginning, he realized that the script of the Holy Grail War seemed to have deviated quite a bit, and all the anomalies came from the girl who was as bright as light in front of him.
What exactly is it…Rope wondered.
Then, let's try again…
"Rider, there are already three Heroic Spirits here including you.”
said Rope. "As a human, it's rare for me to see such a grand occasion, but I can't help but feel a little regretful.”
"Could it be that our impression is different from what you think?”Rider scratched his chin and asked.
"No!"
Rope revealed a strange expression and raised his finger.
"Don't you have such thoughts? Saber and Lancer were fighting face to face, and the crisp sound of their swords clashing against each other was enough to draw out more than one Heroic Spirit, right? There were only three people present, and there were seven Heroic Spirits who had descended during the Holy Grail War. What kind of heroes were the other existences…Don't you want to see for yourself?”
He was guiding Rider to say the words that inspired him in the original novel.
"Hahahahaha."
Rider let out a heroic laugh and slapped his Master hard. The immense force almost made Wilbur faint.
"Little Master, learn well. This is the true attitude of a Heroic Spirit Master!”He raised his hands as if he was embracing the world.
"The heroes gathered in Dongmu. Seeing Saber and Lancer's bravery, did he not feel anything? He had a real name that was worth bragging about, but he had been secretly peeking here. How cowardly.”
After laughing out loud, Rider tilted his head slightly and revealed a fearless expression. Finally, he looked around with a provocative gaze.
"Heroes invited by the Holy Grail War, gather here now. Cowards who are afraid to even show their faces, lest the Conqueror King, Iskandar, humiliate you.”
