Facing Kiritsugu, who was tightly guarding his fiancée Sola, Rin calmly spread her hands to show she had no intention of fighting, then turned to look at the surrounding ruins and called out loudly.

"You lot watching from the sidelines, if you don't want to start a war right now, then show yourselves!"

Ha ha ha ha ha! A hearty laugh echoed through the empty ruins as a chariot from an ancient battlefield, crackling with thunder, descended into the midst of the rubble.

On the other side, Irisviel wore a gentle smile as she led Saber into the center of the ruins.

Seeing the Saber pair enter, Rin spoke to them with displeasure.

"Where's Kiritsugu Emiya? Let me see." As she spoke, Rin reinforced her eyes with magical energy and scanned the high ground around them. Sure enough, Kiritsugu Emiya was aiming a sniper rifle in their direction.

"Hmph, the Magus Killer indeed. Well, you should be able to relay my words to Kiritsugu Emiya, so it doesn't matter. But Kiritsugu Emiya, shouldn't you and your assistant put down your guns? I don't have a habit of letting people aim at my head."

Hearing that someone was aiming a gun at them, Waver panicked and crouched down, hiding in the chariot.

The King of Conquerors looked at Waver with some helplessness, reached out a palm as big as a fan, and yanked Waver up.

"Master, what's there to fear about a rat hiding in the shadows? Stand up boldly."

"But that's the famous Magus Killer! No way!"

Kotomine Kirei's eye twitched as he looked at his own student, unable to believe it. 'Did I teach this guy? Where's the courage he had to talk back to me? And I got denied by this King of Conquerors because of this student?'

"A bunch of mongrels. What a boring farce."

Gilgamesh's declaration finally snapped everyone back to reality, forcing them to seriously face the current situation.

"Two young ladies, to have earned the allegiance of four Servants, it seems even I, the King of Conquerors, am outdone, ha ha ha ha. But young ladies, what do you intend to do?"

"Simple. I plan to end this Holy Grail War tonight and tell you the truth about the Holy Grail. Oh, and by the way, tonight I'll be at the Zenchou Villa on the outskirts of Fuyuki City, awaiting your esteemed presence."

With that, Rin and Sakura ignored the pondering crowd and left the place with their Servants and Sakura.

Snapping out of her thoughts, Saber watched Rin and Sakura leave with four Servants and quickly shouted after their retreating figures.

"Wait! The truth about the Holy Grail? What are you talking about? Don't go!"

Irisviel gently held back Saber, who was about to chase after them, and shook her head.

"Saber, don't chase them."

"That's right, King of Knights. Chasing after them alone is far too dangerous." The King of Conquerors rubbed his chin as he spoke.

At that moment, Kiritsugu Emiya arrived at the center of the ruins with his assistant and lover, Maya Hisau.

Seeing Kiritsugu Emiya approach, Kotomine Kirei stepped forward to block his path to Saber, his eyes gleaming with battle intent as he stared at Kiritsugu.

Following Kotomine's move, Lancer also blocked Saber's path as she prepared to draw her sword. The scene was once again tense.

Kiritsugu Emiya calmly took a drag of his cigarette and lowered the gun Maya Hisau had raised.

"Now is not the time for battle. If you don't want to lose this Holy Grail War and slink back to the Clock Tower in disgrace, Kotomine Kirei."

The King of Conquerors also chimed in.

"That's right. The young ladies already have four Servants and have issued a strong invitation to us. If we start fighting now, I'm afraid..."

Please, dear readers, give lots of collections and votes!!!!

I'm about to apply for a contract, hope you all give me a hand!!!!

Though it's a bit late, I can't help but shout!

We are the champions, always the champions!!!!!

Section 16 Chapter 15: On the Road to Becoming a Goddess - Gathering

Evening of the third day of the Holy Grail War.

In his room, Kiritsugu Emiya opened a case before him with a grave expression, taking out a strangely shaped pistol. He then retrieved an Origin Bullet from the case and carefully loaded it into the gun.

He put on his trench coat, secured the pistol loaded with the Origin Bullet, picked up the suitcase by the door, and left the room.

When Kiritsugu Emiya arrived at the castle's main hall carrying the suitcase, Irisviel, Maya Hisau, and Saber were already waiting.

"Iri, you don't need to come tonight."

Irisviel shook her head, then met Kiritsugu's gaze with a determined look.

"No, Kiritsugu. The Tohsaka family, as one of the Three Great Families, must know that I am the Lesser Grail. If tonight... if something happens... I won't be able to escape either."

Kotomine Kirei packed his ceremonial robes and prepared to leave the temporary shelter with Lancer.

When Kotomine and Lancer reached the front door, Sola was already there, waiting.

"Sola, why are you here?"

"Lord El-Melloi, why can't I be here? You didn't think your little tricks could fool me, did you?"

"Sola, I'm just worried about you. Tonight is far too dangerous."

"If it's so dangerous, why are you going with Lancer?"

"Sola, they've already issued an invitation. Do you want me to hide away and be a coward?"

"Then why don't you just go alone?"

Kotomine Kirei stared in disbelief at his fiancée, then shot a vicious glare at Lancer.

Lancer immediately dropped to one knee.

"Please say no more. As my Master's knight, how could I ever allow my Master to face danger alone?"

Sola looked at the resolute Lancer, paused for a moment, then spoke with unwavering determination.

"Then take me with you."

Kotomine Kirei looked at his beloved fiancée, helplessly nodded, and said with reluctance.

"Lancer, Sola's safety is in your hands."

"As you command, Master. I swear by the name of Chief Warrior of the Knights of Fionn, tonight I will give my all to protect both you and Miss Sola."

Aboard the Sky Chariot, the King of Conquerors, driving the vehicle, saw Waver lost in thought with a worried look. He reached out a hand and smacked Waver on the head.

"Boy, acting like this doesn't qualify you as my vassal. Pull yourself together—this is just a small hurdle on my path of conquest. I am the King of Conquerors who will reach the ends of the world, hahahaha!"

Waver looked at the King of Conquerors' towering figure and clenched his fists firmly.

The King of Conquerors nodded in satisfaction at Waver. It was precisely because, at critical moments, Waver's small frame brimmed with incredible courage—it was this quality that made the King of Conquerors accept him as a vassal.

Night fell. At the Zenchou Villa on the outskirts of Fuyuki City, in the courtyard, all seven Heroic Spirits participating in this Holy Grail War, along with all relevant parties, had gathered.

Rin and Sakura, hand in hand, walked slowly into the courtyard, accompanied by Tokiomi Tohsaka.

"This Humble One is Tokiomi Tohsaka, head of the Tohsaka family. Due to my daughter's sudden decision, This Humble One had no time to prepare. Please forgive any inadequate hospitality."

The King of Conquerors casually picked up a glass of red wine from the nearby table laden with food and drink, and downed it in one gulp.

"Haha, as long as there's wine, that's enough! Isn't that right, Master?"

"Ah, you idiot!"

Compared to the Rider pair, the atmosphere among the others present was heavy, as they silently waited for Rin to speak.

Rin nodded in satisfaction, taking in the grand spectacle of the Holy Grail War she had orchestrated.

At that moment, Saber walked straight toward Rin. Just as she was about to reach Rin's side, Caster, who had been standing beside Rin, extended her left hand to block Saber's path.

"Saber, is it? If you have any questions, just ask them here."

Saber, eager to learn the truth of the Holy Grail, only then realized that she and Rin were still in a hostile relationship. She slowly calmed her urgent emotions before addressing Rin.

"My apologies for the rudeness. But Rin Tohsaka, could you tell us now what the Holy Grail truly is? Isn't the Holy Grail War about obtaining the Grail that can grant any wish?"

As Saber asked, the surrounding people also turned to look, seemingly curious about what the true purpose of the Holy Grail War really was.

Rin studied Saber, who was desperate for an answer, and gave a slight smile. To ensure everyone present could hear clearly, she spoke louder than usual.

"Saber, you might be disappointed. The Holy Grail cannot grant all wishes..."

Kotomine Kirei suddenly interrupted, cutting off Rin's words.

"I knew it. How could a magical ritual in such a backwater place possibly grant so-called wishes..."

Gilgamesh, holding a glass of red wine, stood behind Rin. Seeing Rin's speech interrupted, he—who had been looking forward to enjoying Saber's 'exquisite' expression—grew angry.

"Shut up, mongrel!"

With Gilgamesh's furious shout, several golden ripples appeared behind him. From within those golden ripples, countless Noble Phantasms extended, locking onto Kotomine Kirei.

Rin took a sideways step to block Gilgamesh's path, offering him a slight smile.

"King of Heroes, why trouble yourself with such a common mortal? Please, withdraw your might."

"Tch. Fine, mongrel. For Rin's sake, I'll spare you this time."

Seeing Gilgamesh so accommodating, Rin flashed him a sweet smile.

"My deepest thanks!"

Then she continued.

"The Holy Grail can grant wishes. With the sixty years' worth of magical energy it has accumulated, it can indeed fulfill most desires."

Hearing this, Saber's face, which had just dimmed, lit up with hope once more.

"However, the Holy Grail was corrupted by All the World's Evil in the previous Holy Grail War. That means any wish granted by the current Grail will only proceed from the worst possible outcome. For example, if someone wished for humanity to end war, the Grail would likely kill all humans to achieve that wish."

Gilgamesh savored the ever-changing expressions on Saber and Kiritsugu Emiya's faces—shifting from despair to hope, then back to despair. To him, this was the most entertaining sight he had witnessed since the start of this Holy Grail War.

"So the current Holy Grail is an evil Grail. Everyone present, why not come to our palace and bring this Holy Grail War to a swift and simple conclusion?"

As Rin finished speaking, a massive Floating Castle appeared above the Zenchou Villa...

Chapter 16: I, Rin Tohsaka, Will Become a Demon God – The King of Knights Who Doesn't Understand Human Hearts!

At the JGSDF Air Self-Defense Force Radar Station, alarms suddenly blared. Ichiro Oda, on duty, carefully set down his handheld console and rubbed his eyes in disbelief. The radar displayed an object roughly three kilometers in size, appearing out of nowhere over the outskirts of Fuyuki City, only to vanish moments later.

"This piece of junk radar!" Ichiro Oda growled, glaring at the radar screen. He picked up his console and resumed playing his beloved handheld game with intense focus.

In Fuyuki City, it was dinnertime. The sparse pedestrians wandering the streets looked up in shock toward the distant outskirts. In a fleeting glimpse, they saw a massive floating castle appear there, only to vanish seconds later! As the castle disappeared, the passersby exchanged puzzled glances, hoping to confirm from others whether they had seen things...

At the Zenchou Villa.

Kotomine Kirei and Sola stared in disbelief at the floating castle that had flashed across the sky. Though it had vanished from sight, the immense magical energy it radiated was like a sun hanging in the heavens—impossible for any Magus to ignore.

"This can't be! How could something like this appear? This..." Kirei shouted. Until now, he had believed the so-called Holy Grail War was merely a rustic magical ritual held by country Magi to assert their existence. Even after witnessing on the first day at the docks that this Holy Grail War was no simple affair, as the prodigy of the Clock Tower and the lord of the El-Melloi family, he still looked down on this ritual involving country Magi and outsiders. But now, with the appearance of the 'Garden of Avalon,' Kirei realized that he was the ignorant one!

Sola nervously clung to Kirei's arm, trembling as she sensed the castle in the sky.

"Kirei, didn't you say this was just a country magical ritual? Why is something like this appearing? Something that could probably destroy an entire country with ease!"

Waver, sensing the 'Garden of Avalon' with a grave expression, cast a cautious glance at the King of Conquerors.

"Rider, are you alright?"
