"Thank you, Sir Bedivere."
Mash was deeply grateful for Bedivere's reminder. In fact, it was precisely because of it that she gained a deeper understanding of the shield in her hands and her Noble Phantasm. In the original work, this was what allowed Mash to block Goetia's attack at the end, sacrificing herself to save her Master.
"The Holy City's defenses are formidable. Everything was arranged by Agravain. Sneaking in is impossible; we can only attack head-on."
Inside an ordinary house in the town established by Lancelot, the group gathered to discuss their plan to attack the Holy City the day after tomorrow. They had chosen to meet here in order to gain the Hassans' trust, showing them the mountain people Lancelot had rescued.
Although the Hassans trusted Mash, Ritsuka, and Bedivere greatly, Lancelot was another matter. They had been enemies before, and even Mash and the others' assurances could not change that. This was the mountain people's final means of survival, so they had to be extremely cautious.
Once they gained the Hassans' trust, command of the army was immediately handed over to Lancelot. First, he was familiar with the situation in the Holy City. Second, among everyone present, he was the only one with experience commanding troops in battle. The Hassans were assassins; if they were asked to command an army, their only order would probably be to attack.
"Lord Pharaoh will launch the first attack and draw away part of the Holy City's forces. Then we'll strike during the Holy Selection."
They had chosen the day after tomorrow because another Holy Grail Selection would be held then. Perhaps because the time was drawing near, the Holy Selection had become very frequent, giving them the perfect opportunity.
The Knights of the Round Table had already killed many people.
