"Because-"
"The seeds planted have already sprouted.”
Ignoring Saber's doubts, Asker turned to look at Saber.
"After the Holy Grail War ends, sign a contract with me. I will let you stay by my side.”
"Yes! After I save Britain, I will stay by your side.”
Saber's wish could be said to have changed, but it could also be said that it had not changed.
She hoped that the Holy Grail would re-elect a king, and then she would be able to stay by Asker's side after her wish was fulfilled.
This was her greatest wish now.
However, Asker hesitated.
He was hesitating whether he should tell her the truth about the Holy Grail.
He told her that the all-purpose wishing machine was just a joke.
'I'll find an opportunity to talk about it later.'
Aske gradually made up his mind.
It was already night time.
Previously, he had made an appointment with the Conqueror King to hold a banquet here. It was almost time.
"It should be here soon."
"What?"
Saber was confused. He didn't know what Asker was talking about.
The sound of thunder in the sky gave Saber the best answer.
"Conqueror King Iskandar, go!”
Rider rode the ox cart, carrying his master Wilbur, and descended from the sky.
"Enemy attack!"
Saber immediately changed into his battle armor and jumped down before Asker could say anything.
He landed in front of Rider and got into an attacking stance.
"Rider, what are you doing here?”
"Hmm, didn't Caster tell you?”
Saber was a little confused. He turned around and looked at Asker, who had landed beside him.
"Sorry, I forgot."
Although he said that, his actions did not seem like he was going to admit his mistake.
"What's going on? Asker."
"To put it simply, Rider wanted to hold a party, so I told him the location.”
Saber looked at Asker with a look of blame. He told himself that he had exposed his base.
Aske quickly found an excuse to explain.
"Ah ah ~ Isn't it nice to have a winner at the wine table, Leah ~"
"Hmm, that's true."
Rider's untimely voice suddenly rang out.
"Speaking of which, you two are really close. Saber is indeed Caster's woman. In that case, your alliance can be explained.”
"That's right, I'm his woman."
Saber didn't evade the question and answered it directly.
"As expected of a king tier, forthright!”
"Saber, why is CasterRider here?”
Alisfell was also attracted by the commotion outside, and she was at a loss when Rider suddenly appeared.
"Is the enemy here?"
"It's okay, Allie. Rider is just here for a banquet.”
"Phew, that's good."
He patted his chest and let go of the worry in his heart.
"Then I'll go back first."
Alisfall returned to the castle. Eimiya Qitsuki had completely lost his ability to move. He could not do it without someone to take care of him.
"Speaking of which, where's that golden shimmering guy? Didn't you invite him?"
"I just met him outside. He should be here soon.”
"As expected of a miscellaneous cultivator. Even the prepared venue is so desolate.”
Golden light appeared and gathered to form a human figure. It was the Hero King, Gilgamesh.
"Yes, the glittering guy is here too. As expected, my car is faster.”
"Do you want to die, miscellaneous cultivator!"
The four of them sat down in a circle in the middle of the garden, but Gilgamesh was a little dissatisfied.
"You actually let me, as the king, sit on the same land as you miscellaneous cultivators. This is a great crime, enough to make you die thousands of times!”
"But you still sat down."
Asker also retorted mercilessly.
Bang!
The Conqueror King smashed the lid of the wine barrel with a punch, picked up the spoon, and took a sip of the wine he had brought. At the same time, he pushed the spoon towards everyone.
"Come and have a taste. This is the best wine on the market!”
Saber and Asker did not make a move. Instead, Gilgamesh took the spoon and took a small sip, looking displeased.
"This kind of low-grade trash is worthy of this shabby courtyard, but this is not wine worthy of a king.”
"Really?”
"Of course."
A golden ripple appeared in Gilgamesh's hand, and a golden wine jug slowly extended from it. It landed steadily on the ground, and at the same time, he took out four cups and threw them at the Conqueror King.
Everyone took the cups, and Rider poured himself a cup first. He tasted it, and a blush that did not match his burly image appeared on his face. He couldn't help but exclaim,
"As expected of the Hero King. Such fine wine is the best I've ever seen.”
"Whether it's a sword, a spear, or wine, only the best things in my treasure vault are worthy of this king.”
Gilgamesh did not mind Rider's praise. He had always only had the best of his own things, so it was only natural for others to praise him.
Aske and Saber also took a sip and could feel the extraordinariness of the wine.
When he was in the Sandbox Court, he would occasionally buy some " fine wine " from the market. However, Aske did not have high expectations for wine. As long as it was " passable ", it was enough. However, the fine wine in front of him made Aske praise it endlessly. At that moment, he felt that the so-called " most delicious wine " he had ever drunk in the past was trash.
"I really want to take your treasure.”
Asker looked at Gilgamesh with a smirk.
"If you're in a hurry to die, you can give it a try.”
Gilgamesh was not angry. He was interested in Asker, but it did not mean that he saw Asker as a threat.
After all, the proud Hero King did not think that there was anyone who could threaten him in this Holy Grail War.
It could be said that he was confident in his own strength, and it could also be said that he was confident in his Treasured Artifact.
Seeing that the two were at loggerheads, Saber decisively stood on Aske's side, looking at Gilgamesh as an enemy. Rider, on the other hand, became the peacemaker.
"Well, we're here to drink today. Why don't we decide the winner at the wine table?”
"Of course! Unless you don't like the wine I brought!”
"It's fine. We'll talk about the battle after the banquet.”
" It's indeed after the banquet is over, but it's hard to say exactly how long.'
Asker did not say the last sentence out loud. He did not want to ruin the atmosphere.
"But Rider, this banquet isn't just about drinking, right?”
Asker continued to enjoy the wine and asked about Rider's true purpose.
Seeing the three of them calm down and continue to enjoy the wine, Rider laughed out loud before turning serious.
"Of course, this time, I want to see if you have the qualifications to compete for the Holy Grail. If his wish is not qualified, it is better to withdraw directly to avoid unnecessary disputes.”
