Chapter 161: The Messenger of Justice's Shattered Dream
Micah was very curious.
Will Illya, who was taken away by Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel to live a good life, go down the path of a magical girl?
Of course, such a bad taste is just one of Micah's ideas.
What he really wants is something else.
"What do you want?"
Emiya Kiritsugu, who was touched by Micah's words, asked seriously.
"What I want is naturally Saber."
In the surprised expression of Irisviel, Micah said lightly.
The reason why Micah proposed such a deal was for Merlin.
As Altria's teacher, Merlin hoped that Altria could be redeemed and freed from endless pain.
According to the original history, this should be done by Emiya Shirou.
But now, Micah is almost certain that Emiya Shirou will not appear.
The "fate" that led to the meeting of Emiya Shirou and Emiya Kiritsugu can no longer be triggered under the influence of Micah.
In this way, Artoria's liberation becomes a very slim thing.
Therefore, Mika suddenly thought of it just now.
Rather than letting her return to Valhalla and immerse herself in the pain of past history, it is better to keep her in the present world and use her as a thug.
In this way, in the prosperous future, maybe one day she will suddenly wake up and be liberated.
Although this method is full of uncertainty, it is much better than constantly waiting for the opportunity in Valhalla.
After all, no matter how long she waits, her wish will not come true.
"Is it Saber?"
Hearing Mika's request, Emiya Kiritsugu instantly understood what Mika and the others meant.
They want to purify the polluted Holy Grail.
The reason is that it is meaningless for Mika to obtain the qualification of Artoria's master now, after all, they are already in sight of victory.
As a tool to achieve the goal, after the Holy Grail War is over, the Servants will return to Valhalla.
Unless the other party has a way to make the Servants stay in the present world even after the Holy Grail War is over.
Since Altria can stay, then Merlin from the Matou side can naturally stay as well.
Merlin, the top magician, plus the opponent's manipulation of the Holy Grail.
Emiya Kiritsugu immediately figured it out completely.
The pollution of the Greater Holy Grail is true, but this does not mean that the Greater Holy Grail has no value.
After all, the Holy Grail War was originally a ritual magic jointly created by Einzbern, the Tosaka family, and the Matou family.
Although it is indeed very great.
But in the hands of a magician like Merlin, it may not be impossible to repair it.
So what the opponent lacks is time?
The opponent's plan is after the end of the Holy Grail War and the next Holy Grail War?
For this, they need to accumulate combat power from now on?
Such thoughts made Emiya Kiritsugu's originally silent heart active again, but he soon woke up from it.
Even if the opponent can repair the Greater Holy Grail, it has nothing to do with him.
Now, what he needs is Irisviel and Illya.
"I agree to your request."
Having confirmed that the Holy Grail was contaminated, Emiya Kiritsugu answered seriously.
"Kiritsugu!"
Holding Emiya Kiritsugu's arm tightly, Irisviel's heart was full of entanglement.
Although Altria was only a Servant, after spending some time together, Irisviel had already regarded her as her best friend.
But now, Emiya Kiritsugu wanted to give her to someone else.
And it was to save Illya.
Such a choice undoubtedly made Irisviel extremely entangled.
Feeling the pain from his arm, Emiya Kiritsugu turned his head and looked at Irisviel and comforted him: "Giving Saber to the other party is the best ending for both us and Saber."
"We no longer have the possibility of holding the Holy Grail, but they still have a chance. Following them, Saber may still have the possibility of realizing her wish."
"Isn't this better for him than following us?"
After hearing Emiya Kiritsugu's answer, Irisviel was stunned for a moment and nodded with a wry smile.
Yes!
In the other camp, there is also Merlin, Artoria's teacher.
With them, perhaps Artoria can really realize her miserable and glorious wish.
"Yes, as Emiya Kiritsugu said, this is the best ending."
Micah said with a chuckle.
And at this moment, Micah's body suddenly felt a strange feeling.
In a moment, the connection between him and Lancelot disappeared.
At the same time, the small Holy Grail on the altar was completely formed and bloomed with brilliant colors.
"It seems that the battle between Artoria and Lancelot is over."
Looking at the back of his hand, Micah shook his head.
Looking at this scene, Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't help cursing in his heart.
"You guys are really not Merlin's master. Merlin's master is probably hiding in a safe place, quietly waiting for the victory to come."
Fortunately for his correct judgment just now.
Emiya Kiritsugu's heart couldn't help but become nervous.
Looking at the small Holy Grail in the sky, his eyes were full of calmness.
He had already believed Merlin's words, and now he was just witnessing that moment.
Under Kiritsugu Emiya's expectant gaze, black mud poured out of the Holy Grail, and quickly filled the small Holy Grail and began to fall down.
And right below it, the Nen tool made by Gabriel, the Cup of Void, was quickly receiving the black mud dripping from the sky and carrying it in it.
According to the rules of the Holy Grail War, when there are only two servants left, the Holy Grail will appear and show the glory of the Holy Grail to the two people in the final duel.
When the final winner is determined, it will fulfill the winner's wish.
But now, the act of the polluted Holy Grail showing its glory is to let the black mud inside it flow out and show its destruction to the world.
But at this moment, all the black mud it flows out is collected by the Cup of Void below.
This is the Nen tool that Micah asked Gabriel to make for the black mud in the Holy Grail, as a research master who has been studying the Holy Grail system for a long time.
Gabriel quickly completed Micah's commission.
With it, everything near Mount Enzo will not be destroyed.
"This is the Holy Grail!"
Looking at the black mud that continuously overflowed from the Holy Grail, Emiya Kiritsugu's face was extremely ugly.
From the dark mud, he felt the purest malice of mankind.
"Is this the malice of all mankind?"
All the evil in this world, this is the essence of the mud.
"Mica, I will transfer Saber's authority to you now."
Emiya Kiritsugu, with an ugly face, spoke very hurriedly. As a messenger of justice, he couldn't stay here for a moment.
He actually spent several years for such a thing.
It's ridiculous to think about it.
"Let's go home, Ellie!"
Turning around and looking at his wife beside him, Emiya Kiritsugu's face was full of miserable expressions.
At this moment, the dream of the messenger of justice was completely shattered.
