The sound of waves hitting the rock walls and the noise from the distant streets began to secretly decorate the night sky. Perhaps it was because the pressure was gradually lessening.
"What? In the end, he still said some pretty words and left.”
Rider said as he rubbed his chin. "Looks like his Master isn't as courageous as Archer.”
Even though he was slightly shocked by Archer's power, it was not to the extent of 'fear'. This was because the Conqueror King, Iskandar, also had a trump card that he could be proud of.
"That golden Master is very cautious.”
"There's more. Miss Saber, aren't you going to explain to your Master?”Lope crossed her arms and smiled at the delicate girl in front of her.
"If you attack without permission, you will cause your Master to fall into a trap.”
Saber lowered his eyes in shame. After a long time, he could only spit out these three words in his hoarse voice.
"…Nothing."
Saber still didn't explain to Alistair.
Seeing this scene, Rope nodded in satisfaction.
As I expected, it was not my imagination, and it had nothing to do with Amiya Qieti. Everything was changed because of you, Altolia.
"Hehe, is that so…Alright, Lancer, that's all for today.”
Lope got his answer and said to Dilumudo.
"There are many opportunities to fight, but there's no way to continue fighting in this situation, right? We still have other things to do.”
"Your Majesty, you decide."
Lancer nodded gloomily and pointed his spear at Saber.
"Knight King, let's leave our duel for next time. I'll forgive you this time. To be honest, you have disappointed me. Not only did you violate the rules of a duel between knights, but you also treated your Master so rudely.”
“Lancer……”
Saber opened her mouth with a dejected expression, but she was unable to say anything.
"Eh? Are you leaving just like that?"
The Conqueror King scratched his head. " Are you sure you don't want to reconsider? I'm willing to share the joy of conquering with you…"
Evidently, no one was paying attention to Rider.
From the beginning until the moment Lancer and Rope left, that cautious and cold man did not shoot at all. This made Rope worry for nothing.
It was unknown if he was observing the information of the heroic spirits or if he was afraid of the power that surpassed humans and did not easily expose himself.
In short, the first battle of the Holy Grail War had finally come to an end.
Even though it was not perfect.
————————————————————————————————————————
After the battle ended, Jiantong Yanye's situation was not optimistic.
During that battle, the foreign object in Yan Ye's body was awakened and began to wriggle. Move and eat his flesh. Her body was crushing his bones. The False Magic Cycle Engraving Worm in Yan Ye's body absorbed the maximum amount of mana he could provide to Berserker without any concern.
The so-called magic cycle activation. To him, it was just the pain of being corroded by the Mark Worm, making him wish he was dead.
Although Berserker was injured, his mana consumption could be reduced to a minimum after he turned invisible into a spirit body. Even so, Jiantong Yanye was now suffering from uncontrollable side effects-his heartbeat was accelerating and he was dizzy.
"Oh…Ah…"
Yan Ye, who was hidden in the darkness, tried his best to hold back his cries as the Engraving Worm bit him for the last time. He kept scratching his chest and throat. Yan Ye's skin cracked open and blood oozed out. At the same time, the nails on his hands were peeling off.
"You don't look very good.”
Just as his consciousness was about to collapse, a clear voice sounded.
Lope held a bladewing bug in his right hand and slowly walked into the dark sewer. It was this bug that brought him here.
He looked pitifully at Jiantong Yanye, who had been tortured by the insects until he was beyond recognition.
"Can you still hold on?"
"You're finally here…"
Panting, Jiantong Yanye forced himself to stay alert and tried to stand up by leaning against the wall. However, his broken body did not allow him to do so. He could only helplessly sit on the ground.
" I'm sorry, I haven't been a Magician for long. Although I tried my best to control Berserker, he still went berserk at the critical moment and didn't listen to my instructions..."
Seeing that the good old man had become like this, Rope's eyes softened.
His right hand lit up with a blue light. The healing properties of water began to take effect, relieving the pain in Jiantong Yanye's body.
"It's nothing serious. You're already doing your best to help me, just like you promised. Berserker's rampage was just an accident.”
"Is that so…"
Jiantong Yanye's expression gradually relaxed. He raised his head and looked at the dirty stone slab that was constantly dripping with water with his blurry vision.
"I can feel that…my life will not last until the end of this battle.”
"I know."
"…So!" Yan Ye suddenly raised his head, his eyes burning with an unyielding flame.
"Rope, this is a request that I am willing to bet my life on. Please save Sakura. No matter what I do next, I will use all my remaining life force to help you obtain victory in this Holy Grail War.”
After he finished speaking, he laughed mockingly.
" That old man…He said that he would release Sakura once he got the Holy Grail. He's just giving me false hope. I won't believe him…"
"Save Sakura…even if you have a heroic spirit, you can't do it?”
Rope asked the question that he had been having since he had not transmigrated.
Why didn't Miantong Yanye resist Miantong Zangyan's rule even though he had Lancelot?
"Haha, stop joking."
Jiantong Yanye smiled bitterly and raised his wrinkled hand.
"Look at me, my body is filled with that old man's bugs…I'm already his puppet…"
Rope was silent, and then he slowly put his hand on his chest.
"I swear in my name that I will fulfill your wish.”
Looking at Rope's sincere eyes, Jiantong Yanye suddenly laughed out loud, but then he was interrupted by the blood in his throat and turned into intermittent coughing.
"Ahem…you're really strange. You were clearly using words to force me to make a choice, and now you're showing mercy to the weak…you really don't look like a magician.”
"I told you, I'm a substitute envoy, and being a magician is just a part-time job.”
Rope stood up and looked down at the poor man who was being eaten by the worms.
"Besides, people have to have some bottom line. My bottom line is that I have to keep my promise. If I can't keep it, I'm not even a beast.”
Even though Rope had made use of Jiantong Yanye, he was not a villain who would break his promise.
"Really? That's great. I'll leave it to you…"
Jiantong Yanye closed his eyes tiredly. " Berserker will take you to the Mikirito family's address…It's only for now. Let me rest for a while…"
In the darkness, the pitch-black knight began to gradually take shape. There was no sign of his violent posture at all as he walked toward the exit.
Seeing this, Rope nodded at Jiantong Yanye and did not disturb him. He followed behind Lancelot silently.
