What is the mission of Servant?

Saber once asked herself this question and finally got her own answer.

Servant's mission is to fight!

And, when there is no battle, actively prepare for the battle that will come at any time, and rest and recuperate in order to fully complete your mission!

Therefore, after eating and drinking enough, Saber felt a little sleepy and thought it would be nice if she could have a pillow or quilt at this time.

"Saber, can you please stop feeling sleepy during the strategy meeting..."

In Emiya Residence's living room, Illya, who had just finished a deep Yoruichi meal, held his forehead and said a helpless reminder.

Hearing the sound, Saber woke up instantly! Because of the food made by Shirou in this world, the familiar environment, and the familiar taste of the food, I almost forgot that the real Shirou was still in the enemy's hands!

Gan! Careless!

Saber clenched her fists and bit her lower lip, mentally cursing herself for being so careless, for forgetting such an important thing because of this overly familiar environment, thinking that she was still in the original world or something!

Obviously Shirou is being tortured in the hands of the enemy. Maybe the enemy even used whips, tiger stools, pepper water, etc.!

Shirou, wait for me! I will definitely come to save you!

Seeing that Saber had come back to her senses, Illya once again spoke to everyone at the table, "The next step is Darius, whose voice I have only heard but not seen. To be honest, that person's voice gave me a very bad feeling. Maybe he is the biggest threat."

After dinner, Rin, who had fully understood the cause and effect of the incident, also held his chin and analyzed it.

"It is indeed unimaginable that someone specializes in Replacement Magic and can even use Replacement Magic to this extent. As the head of the family, Darius, who claims to be the head of the Enzworth family, should really pay attention."

Speaking of this, Rin also looked at Shirou: "Emiya-kun, among the people here, Holy Grail War has participated in the Enzworth organization. And you, who defeated the puppets they replaced and used Holy Grail to send Miyu away in the end, must be the one who knows Enzworth best, right?"

"Maybe that's the case." Giant Hero said, and then he shook his head seriously and changed the topic. "But this is also the first time I heard the name Darius. As far as I know, the current head of the Enzworth family should be a boy of the same age as me named Julian·Enzworth."

"What?!"

Everyone present was shocked.

Emiya Giant Hero nodded silently and continued very seriously, "The previous generation's Enzworth leader is Julian's father, named Zachary Enzworth. He was also my last opponent in Holy Grail War."

"Wait a minute!" Rin suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked Emiya Shirou: "The previous generation Enzworth was in charge... does that mean he is dead? You just said that the people involved in Holy Grail War are all dead people who were made into dolls by Replacement Magic!"

"Yes, that's right. According to my estimation, Julian's father was killed in the disaster ten years ago. In the last Holy Grail War, at the end of the battle with the doll that replaced his consciousness, he asked me about Julian, but he didn't explain clearly what happened."

Rin, Illya, Luviya and Bazett looked at each other and noticed the solemn look in each other's eyes.

"It seems that things are a little complicated."

Illya spoke, and Bazett followed up with a frown and said, "When we broke into Enzworth's workshop, to be honest, we didn't see the Julian·Enzworth you called. If this person also exists, we may have one more enemy."

"Both people claim to be the head of the Enzworth family, one named Julian, the other named Darius, the Magecraft family that has been passed down for thousands of years, the long-cherished wish that has not changed for thousands of years, and the troublesome Replacement Magic..."

Listening to Luviya holding his chin and analyzing in a low voice, the witty Illya suddenly thought of something.

"Don't tell me!"

"What's wrong? Illya?" Saber asked.

"Indeed, that kind of thing should indeed exist. It would be unreasonable if such a thing didn't exist. It's really an unexpected similarity, hehehe..."

Looking at Illya who lowered his head and muttered to himself, everyone present did not understand what the other person's reaction was at this time.

After sorting out the somewhat complicated feelings in his heart, Illya raised his head and slowly expressed his guesses and ideas.

To put it simply, the so-called Darius·Enzworth for the Enzworth family may be similar to Ahlad from the Einzbern Family in another world!

Its function is to pass on the family's long-cherished wishes to Enzworth heirs from generation to generation, and to prevent the long-cherished wishes from being distorted or lost due to the passage of time!

After all, if there is no reminder of the existence of your long-cherished wish from time to time, things like thousand-year long-cherished wish will be easily distorted by time!

Just like a person who has lived for five hundred years, when no one is always vigilant, he eventually distorts and forgets his true long-cherished wish!

The same goes for the family of a certain Second Magic disciple. In less than two hundred years, their long-cherished wish to save all mankind has been twisted into a selfish desire to go to Root!

"That makes sense." Rin nodded and said, but then she also raised her own doubts. "By the way, Illya, why do the two examples you gave at the end of forgetting long-cherished wishes sound familiar?"

"Ara~ It seems that the leader of Tohsaka Residence still has some self-awareness~"

Looking at Illya with his eyes bent and a smile on his face, Rin finally suppressed the discomfort caused by the other party's sarcasm, which made him feel happy.

After all, the other party was right. The previous generations of his family had indeed forgotten their original long-cherished wish.

Anyway, when it was passed to my father, the only thing left was to go to Root. What was passed on to me was only to go to Root. Not to mention the words "save mankind", it was not even mentioned in the information in my basement!

Luviya said at this time, "In other words, Darius may just be a terminal program artificial intelligence similar to Einzbern? And his existence is also to control and prevent the long-cherished wish passed down by Enzworth from going astray."

"It's very possible." Illya nodded with a serious face again, "Enzworth and Einzbern are like corresponding existences in these two worlds. Logically speaking, I am the Einzbern of this generation. E is the owner of the family, but Ahlad is the real owner of Einzbern. Maybe Julian and Darius are in a similar situation!"

Bazett took over at this time. "I understand if you explain it this way. Anyway, it means that we need to be prepared to fight Julian and Darius at the same time. In this case, the manpower may need to be reallocated."

"Julian Just leave it to me." Emiya Giant Hero said.

"Your body can no longer fight. If you force yourself to fight, what will happen to you..."

Illya hesitated to speak. The opponent's body was already in tatters. If he participated in any fierce battle, the outcome would be...

Emiya Shirou didn't care about this kind of thing. He smiled very easily and said, "Ah, I know. But, this is my responsibility. Not only as Miyu's brother, but also as Julian's friend. I also leave this matter to you."

Seeing Emiya Shirou's words and expressions full of seriousness and even pleading, everyone present finally reluctantly agreed to the other party's participation in the sneak attack and rescue plan early this morning.

The sneak attack always comes at three o'clock in the morning~

Boom!!

Boom!!

Beatrice, who was shaken out of bed again after twenty-four hours, was also furious. This was no longer a question of martial ethics, it was a provocation!

Without Darius notifying him, he placed the Julian pillow neatly on the bed, and after leaving a soft voice saying "Sir Julian, please wait until I come back", Beatrice rushed out.

At the same time, in Angelica's room.

Angelica, whose key parts were still well blocked by the moonlight, took one last indifferent glance out the window and started to put on clothes neatly, which also made a certain LSP who had been paying attention swallow several mouthfuls of saliva!

Blonde hair, ponytail, lolita, pajamas!

Erika, which combines these attributes that make some LSPs in front of the screen the most excited, opened the door of his room, rubbed his sleepy eyes with one hand, and held a cute stuffed animal in the other hand.

"What happened? It's so noisy..."

In the corridor, Erika was walking and talking. Judging from the brisk pace, this little loli who looked less than ten years old should be a little excited about this unexpected situation.

"Oh, we can't go any further."

Darius's voice made Erika stop. Erika turned around and saw Darius·Enzworth standing behind him, yawning and leaning against the corridor wall, looking like a depressed uncle.

"Why?" Erika blinked his cute big eyes.

Darius smiled slightly, squatted down and said in a coaxing tone, "Because it's bedtime for children now, and children who don't sleep well will be punished. Of course..."

As he said that, Darius's expression changed slightly and he looked at the window on the side, "So are those "children" who are too smart to sleep well. Also, it really makes me a little unhappy to have such random things in our yard. Is this already the second time? Erika, do you think you need to forgive them?"

Erika tapped his index finger on his jelly-soft cheek, raised his face and thought seriously for two seconds.

"Erika doesn't know!"

As if he heard a satisfactory answer, Darius bent his eyes and rubbed Erika's hair.

"You're right, I don't know either. After all...Illyasviel is also an important item. I'm also worried about whether to kill her. Ahh~ I'm really worried~"

"Really? Are you worried? Then if you die now, you won't have to worry."

Darius, who turned around, looked at the blue Lancer who had slipped in behind him at some point. His eyes did not show the slightest surprise or any other strange expression.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah..." Darius scratched his messy hair and stood up from the ground, "It looks like you don't have to worry about it anymore..."

Outside the castle, Berserker faced off against Beatrice, and Red A and saber faced off against Angelica.

In the castle, Scylla and Bazett found Darius Enzworth.

Rin, Luviya, Emiya Shirou, and Illya divided into two groups. One group sneaked into the prison below the castle to find and rescue another Emiya Shirou, and the other group lurked toward the tower where Miyu was imprisoned...
