Chapter 67: The Banquet Between Kings The Dispute over the Royal Road
Night fell on the castle of Einzberen again, the traces of the battle of the previous day were still clearly visible, Kenneth's moon spirit liquid was indeed worthy of praise in terms of destructive power and staying power, the entire castle of Ainzberen was mostly destroyed, the corridors, rooms, and decorations were all damaged by Kenneth's anger. At this time, only Elle Sophie and Artoria were still awake in the entire castle, and Maiya fell into a coma even though she was treated by Ally Sufir with healing techniques due to the middle side of the ribs by Yan Feng Qili's Baji Fist.
Well...... Although the healing technique is the cause of Maimi's vertigo, Einzbelen's healing technique is different from the ordinary healing technique that promotes ** regeneration, but is similar to alchemy, which directly refines the wound into human tissue. Compared with other treatments, the treatment effect is better because it does not shorten the life expectancy, but the burden on the person being treated is quite large, such as surgery such as a secondary organ transplant. Therefore, it is impossible to expect Maiya to regain mobility in a short period of time, and Emiya Kiritsugu went to pursue Kenneth who was taken away by the lancer, so there were only two people who could move in the huge Einzberen Castle during this time. At this time, Elie Sophier was checking the damage to the castle, when suddenly, there was a piercing thunderclap from the sky above the castle, and at the same time, Elie Sophier felt a stinging pain in the magic circuit in her body, and the barrier arranged by Einzberen was easily destroyed in just a few seconds. Alice Sophie, who fell to the ground in severe pain, was helped up by Artoria, who had arrived, and the two looked out the window together.
"Are you alright? Alice Fell. β
"Well, just a surprise. I didn't expect such a mess of guests to visit. With Altoria's support, Ellie Sophie stood up and looked out the window at the thunder-twinked chariot that was speeding towards the castle with a worried expression.
"I'll go out and greet you, you stay by my side."
On the wheel of Shenwei, Xun Xin, Yaoyue, and Webb's faces were all embarrassed, completely helpless at the guy in front of him who directly dismantled the Einzberen enchantment.
"I didn't expect the Knight King's character to be so good, and even when his own enchantment was forcibly demolished, not a single excalibur threw it over and killed our group of uninvited guests." Yaoyue slapped one hand on her face, and Xun Xin next to her was in the same gesture.
"I think the knight king just pays attention to etiquette and does not liberate the treasure, if the rider does not give a suitable reason for drinking, he will definitely be driven out of the ...... by Artoria."
After the Kamui wheel drove into the castle, it slowly stopped, and the King of Conquest stood on the Kamui wheel wearing a T-shirt with the logo of the Great Conquest and looked at the Knight King who came from the inside of the castle, and slapped the Great Conquest on his chest with great force.
"Hey Knight King, aren't you going to change into a modern outfit tonight? Don't wear that stiff armor all the time. "Hey, rider, you say that people are old-fashioned, so what is it that you wear a t-shirt and jeans in winter, to show that you are burly and strong β......
In the face of this kind of opponent who does not play cards according to common sense, the dull hair on the head of the old-fashioned knight king has become bent? , the surging fighting spirit on Artoria's body gradually dissipated. Seeing that the Knight King was confused by himself, the King of Conquest picked up the barrel placed on Kamui's wheels and patted the barrel that had been filled with the red wine of the Heart's Quest for Perfection, making a dull crashing sound.
"My allies and I have come to you for a drink, hurry up and find a clean courtyard, this castle is too badly damaged to be used as a venue for a banquet."
Well, when he met the king of conquest who came here with a friendly intention, the knight king could not raise the will to fight. After explaining to Ellie Sophie that this banquet was a bloodless battlefield between kings, and using the king's strength as a yardstick to judge the king's rights and wrongs, the knight king turned to everyone.
"I see, there is a courtyard at the top of the castle, which can be used as a place for a banquet."
The banquet venue is being laid......
The atrium of Einsbelen Castle is surrounded by unknown flowers, which shine in the reflection of the moonlight, and it is indeed a good place for the famous kings to have a banquet. In order to show that the relationship between the kings is equal, Xunxin also specially took out a round table in the small space he opened up, although it was not as good as the round table that the knight king got back then, which allowed twelve knights to sit next to him and talk freely, but the round table with precious rosewood as the main material, supplemented by all kinds of gems, gold, silver decoration, and magic to make the effect of emitting various colors of light at night also made the two kings admire. (Poor Kenshin was pulled by the King of Conquerion and Xunxin to be the waiter at the banquet, and the arrangement of the venue and everything was done by Kenshin.) This should be the master's work, the disciple obeys. o((β§β½β¦o)οΌ
At the round table, the cups of the King of Conquest, the King of Knights and the Heroes to come are all arranged, and three luminous glasses carved from precious and flawless jade are the best glasses for red wine. Shinshin, Kenshin, Ellie Sophie, and Webb all retreated to the edge of the courtyard to watch the upcoming feast in front of them. Watching this banquet were swordsmen who had killed countless people, high-ranking magicians and androids with superb magic skills, students of the Clock Tower, and apostles who traveled through the world in search of infinity.
Holding a bamboo-handled spoon and scooping out the luscious liquor from the open barrel, the King of Conquest poured it into the cups of the Knight King and himself, and the two clinked glasses and drank them all.
"I've heard that only those who are qualified can get the Holy Grail." Putting down the wine glass, the King of Conquest said with a serious face. "And the ritual of selecting the person who is qualified is this war that is being fought in Fuyuki - but if you just watch from the sidelines, then there is no need to shed blood. If we can recognize each other's abilities, then I don't need to talk about it. β
The Knight King was silent for a while, took out the wine from the barrel and poured it for the two of them, and then looked at the rider, the awe-inspiring temperament wrapped around his body was even more obvious, even Xun Xin and the others who were sitting on the sidelines were attracted by Artoria's temperament. "So, first of all, you're going to compete with me to see who is stronger?" riderγ β
"Exactly, there is a real contest in the name of the 'king', but in this case, it is better not to call it the 'Holy Grail War', but the 'Holy Grail Q&A'...... In the end, who among the knight kings and conquering kings will become the 'Holy Grail King'? It's a fitting question to ask a wine glass. The King of Conquest smiled, picked up the bamboo-handled spoon, and poured wine into the glow-in-the-dark cup on the other empty seat. Ah, there is a man here who claims to be a king. β
"βthe joke ends here, mongrel." The golden light gathered in the courtyard, dressed in golden armor engraved with unknown magic patterns, and the aura of the Supreme King suddenly enveloped everyone present, and Gilgamesh sat in his place.
"It's a shame that you chose such a shabby place to hold the banquet, but these cups and tables are very much in line with the king's appetite, and you have done a good job in this." After carefully looking at the round table where the king was sitting, the hero king made a good evaluation.
"Hehe, these are carefully selected by my allies to bring to this unprecedented banquet, and naturally they cannot be inferior products that degrade our status. Jin Shining, even though you can only get here on foot, you are still late anyway, so you can punish yourself for a drink. As he spoke, the King of Conquest handed the glass full of wine to Gilgamesh, and Webb and Ellie Sophi were worried that the attitude of the King of Conquest would anger the invincible Hero King, and that ordinary magicians were not capable of dealing with the Heroic Spirits, let alone the wrath of the Heroic King, who was at the top level even among the Heroic Spirits. But neither of them realized that the three people at the banquet were all kings, and even if Gilgamesh did not admit that the other party was the king, he would never back down in the face of the challenge of an opponent who exuded the aura of a king, such as the king of conquest. Taking the glass from the King of Conquest, Gilgamesh drank it down, frowning slightly.
"Even in the world, this wine is considered superb. But as a wine used in battles between heroes, it is still not qualified. β
"Really?" The King of Conquest stroked his thick beard and continued, "This is the best wine I have ever received from my allies, and it tastes like a rare wine in my life. β
"That's because you haven't seen the real 'king's wine', and if you see, this is the wine that the real king should drink." Gilgamesh raised his right hand, and a golden circular space channel appeared in the air, and a yellow ** inlaid with a large number of precious gems fell in front of everyone.
"Oh, that's so impressive." The King of Conquest happily picked up the yellow ** and filled the cup at the banquet.
Saber was still quite wary of the unknown Archer, and she looked at the wine in the yellow ** with some hesitation, but still took the glass handed by the King of Conquest.
"Oh, delicious!!"
Rider took a sip and immediately widened his eyes in praise. Even Saber was piqued with curiosity. Originally, this was not a competition to see who was more decent, but a competition with wine.
When the wine flowed into her throat, Saber felt a strong swelling sensation in her brain. This is indeed a good wine she has never tasted, strong and pure, mellow and refreshing, with a strong fragrance filling the nasal cavity, and the whole person has a sense of drift.
"Great, this is definitely not a human wine, it is a god who drank it."
The king of conquest did not hesitate to praise him, and the wine that Gilgamesh had brought out was so precious that even in the king's treasure there would not be much of it. Sitting next to Xunxin and the others, they could smell the aroma of wine that filled the courtyard, and Webber and Ellie Sophie could feel their bodies washed and their souls purified when they smelled the wine. Perhaps this bottle of wine has a series of abilities such as lifting curses, restoring a large amount of magic, and healing wounds, but Gilgamesh did not hesitate to use it as a wine for banquets, which shows the energy of the ancient king.
On the other hand, when the King of Conquest and others were officially having a banquet, Xun Xin was not idle. After a while, the Assassins should all come and attack to force out the Conqueror King's killer move. As for Kenshin, I'm afraid that several regular masters have already known Kenshin's identity. Get the double bonus of hometown and popularity.,But the flaw of the exchange is that it's very easy to guess the identity.,This world Japan used a back-edged sword during the Meiji period.,A short swordsman can probably know Kenshin's identity as long as he looks it up a little.γ Although there is no record of Kenshin's moves in historical records, it is just a modern swordsman, and naturally there will be no terrifying power of heroes in the Divine Dynasty. Tosaka Tokitomi, Emiya Kiritsugu, and Kenneth probably all think so, and the famous King of Conquest is quite a famous hero, and the matching Noble Phantasm will definitely not be easy. Carrying Webb and Ellie Sophie on his back, Yaoyue created spatial changes that concealed Seeking Heart's movements, and a large amount of mercury filaments flowed from Seeking Heart's hands and spread towards the top of Einzbelen's castle like a living thing. This is the inspiration that Seeking Heart got from Kenneth's Moon Spirit Liquid, after some modifications, these mercury abandoning automatic attack, automatic defense and other effects, the mercury released by Seeking Heart has been strengthened to the greatest extent in terms of dexterity, and can automatically draw a large number of magic arrays and deliver a large amount of magic power, in order to keep the rider from exposing the treasure in advance, Seeking the Heart is really well-intentioned......
