In the real world, Artoria, who was in Vladivostok and communicated with Yao Guang-Chaldea through video calls, was stunned when she heard Saber say that her wish for Holy Grail was to save Britain, with a look of confusion on her face.

Save Britain? Save what?

Britain needs saving? Why is it different from what you know?

This so-called knowledge includes the inheritance from King Arthur. Obviously, there is no unwillingness for Britain in the inheritance, but only satisfaction and blessings.

Obviously, for King Arthur, although many regrets have happened to Kingdom of Camelot under his rule, he does not have the strong will to change.

For a moment, Artoria felt that there was something wrong with this King Arthur, and her powerful Instinct thought so too.

Then, Saber's next sentence took a turn, indicating that she no longer had any wishes on Holy Grail, which immediately made Artoria stunned again.

What? This tone seems to be like being summoned from Holy Grail War, suddenly knowing something, and then feeling relieved.

What is going on with this King Arthur?

Full of questions, full of confusion, and these questions and confusions also belong to people all over the world, and they also belong to everyone at Banquet of Kings in the Light Screen video.

However, at this moment, the Light Screen image switched lenses.

In the Light Screen video, the camera moved to Tohsaka Residence, Tohsaka Tokiomi was tasting fine wine, facing the True Magic prop for communication, his face He said with an elegant smile, "Really? The king's banquet is indeed something that the king can do. Well, Kirei, don't worry about it. Since the king is so interested, let him enjoy it."

Kotomine Kirei on the other end of the communicator hummed after hearing this. "I understand, teacher."

Tohsaka Tokiomi shook the wine in the glass and said as if he could see Kotomine Kirei's expression at this time, "Kirei, do you have any questions to ask me?"

Kotomine Kirei was silent for a moment and said, "Teacher, are we just going to let King of Heroes be so adaptable and do whatever he wants?"

Tohsaka Tokiomi stopped shaking the wine glass immediately, and the smile on his face became a little thicker, "Oh? Kirei, do you have any ideas?"

Kotomine Kirei: "I think this is an opportunity. If you use Command Spell, teacher, then there should be no problem in solving Rider and Saber at the same time with King of Heroes and Noble Phantasm."

Hearing this, Tohsaka Tokiomi put down the wine glass and did not answer directly. Instead, he turned to look at the bright moon outside the window, and then said slowly with a smile, "You are right, Kirei, this can indeed solve Rider and Saber at the same time, and the result is 'only' King of Heroes's anger. To me, it is not a big deal."

Kotomine Kirei: "..."

Tohsaka Tokiomi squinted, looked at the communicator, and said meaningfully, "It's interesting, Kirei, that you would actually make such a suggestion. This Holy Grail War is getting more and more interesting. So, Kirei, let me see what happens next."

Kotomine Kirei: "Yes, teacher."

Then, the communication was interrupted, and the camera shifted to Kotomine Church, with a frightening smile on the face of Kotomine Kirei in his room.

But soon, the smile froze, and then quickly recovered, replaced by a look of confusion, as if Kotomine Kirei didn't know what he had just experienced.

The camera turned back to Tohsaka Tokiomi, who closed his eyes and tasted the wine again. "However, as Kirei said, just Banquet of Kings is indeed a bit boring, so there is nothing wrong with having some sideshows."

Real world, Yao Guang-Chaldea headquarters.

Matou Kariya sneered, "It seems, Tohsaka Tokiomi, 'you' are going to make trouble again. Sure enough, the villain is the villain, and he wants to make big news all day long."

Tohsaka Tokiomi was twitching and immediately defended himself. "You are wrong, Kariya, this is called a pattern. As a contestant of Holy Grail War, and with a vision that far exceeds that of other Master, it is naturally impossible for 'me' to do nothing."

"It is better to say that in order to achieve the final victory, it is natural to use some means. After all, this is not a 'duel' or a 'match', but a 'war'. In order to win the war, any means is natural."

Matou Kariya sneered, "So that includes sending Sakura into the insect cave?"

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "... No, I think there is a reason for this."

Matou Kariya: "Haha, it's all Tohsaka Tokiomi's fault."

Tohsaka Tokiomi:"...(_)"

You can't get over this hurdle, right?

Seeing this, Tohsaka Family and Matou Family and other people nearby pretended not to recognize these two naive old men.

Originally, Tohsaka Tokiomi was quite normal. The Tohsaka Tokiomi in the Light Screen video was of a very high standard. He was also very unfamiliar to Tohsaka Tokiomi in the real world, so I had always looked at him as a bystander.

It wasn't until Matou Kariya arrived here that everything changed. Faced with the painful words "It's all Tohsaka Tokiomi's fault" every day when he was growing up, Tohsaka Tokiomi had to stand on his own side and start to speak for himself.

After all...

No one can be compared to someone who is both a love rival and a close friend!

Therefore, now Tohsaka Tokiomi will always speak for "himself", but Matou Kariya has the big killer weapon "Tohsaka Tokiomi sent Sakura to the insect cave", so every time there is a verbal confrontation, Tohsaka Tokiomi will end up being autistic.

This is the interaction between Tohsaka Tokiomi and Matou Kariya. Both of them have strong subjective stances, so their quarrel is really a quarrel.

What other people see is completely different.

Morgan held his chin as elegantly as ever and said, "It seems that Kotomine Kirei is really in a state of dual personality now, and the hidden second personality can already control the body to do some things without the first personality knowing."

Murata Himeko nodded. "That's true. Tohsaka Tokiomi seems to have noticed it, but for some reason he didn't point it out. He even cooperated with the other party in acting. Should he be called the BOSS?"

Heavenly King International High School High School, Su Yun's personal activity room.

Tokisaki Kurumi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Su Jun, what do you think?"

Su Yun: "I'm sitting and watching, do you want me to stand and watch?"

"..." Tokisaki Kurumi looked at Su Yun speechlessly, but she was used to the latter's attitude of pretending to be stupid. She didn't take it seriously and immediately said to herself, "It looks like Tohsaka Tokiomi He already knows that something is wrong with Kotomine Kirei, but he doesn't care. Judging from the strength he has shown before, a BOSS that can even control Servant really doesn't need to care about a disciple with a brain problem."

"In addition, this BOSS obviously wants to do something at the King's Banquet, but I don't know what he is going to do. Does he really intend to use Command Spell? But judging from what he said, doing so will make King of Heroes angry and even fall out with him."

"Furthermore, although it may be very subjective, I always feel that if I really do that, it would be completely inconsistent with the character of Tohsaka Tokiomi. This mysterious and powerful boss should not be someone who would use that kind of means to win."

"Do you think my analysis is correct? Su Jun?"

Su Yun heard this and kept his smile unchanged, "You are right."

After giving Su Yun a meaningful look, Tokisaki Kurumi turned his attention to the Light Screen image again, waiting for the follow-up development.

In the video of Light Screen, the camera shifted to the scene of Banquet of Kings, and a new exchange began about King Arthur's speech to Holy Grail.

Conqueror King said with a surprised look on his face, "Knight King, did I hear you correctly? You said that you wanted to save Britain at first, and then gave up on your wish? What does this mean?"

"Speaking of which, does Britain need you to save it? Why are people confused by what you said?"

Saber continued to stare at the wine glass and said with a look of reminiscence, "It's not something that can't be said. You can laugh if you think it's funny - my wish to participate in Holy Grail War at the beginning was to travel through time and space and go back to the past to save Britain from destruction."

Conqueror King:"???"

Others: "???"

Real world. "???"

What? Britain heading towards destruction? And, going back through time and space? Where is this going? Why can't I understand it at all?

However, King of Heroes in the Light Screen video seemed to have noticed something after being slightly stunned. A pleasant smile appeared on his face, and the way he looked at Saber gradually became more aggressive.

Saber seemed to feel it, she glanced at King of Heroes, but did not express her position.

Conqueror King put down his wine glass and asked with a serious face, "So, Saber, although I don't know why you said that Britain wants to be destroyed, but I can understand your words to mean that you want to rely on Holy Grail to travel through time and space and go back to the past, and then change the history created by you and your subjects?"

Saber nodded. "Yes, that's exactly it."

Conqueror King was silent for a moment, the smile completely gone from his face, "I can't understand why you would have such an idea?"

Saber: "It's very simple. Because of the constant natural and man-made disasters in my era, Kingdom of Camelot was on the verge of destruction many times. Before I joined Holy Grail War, the country had already reached the edge of the cliff and was only one step away from complete destruction. Therefore, in despair, I placed my last hope on Holy Grail."

These words made people even more surprised, and people in the real world were also completely confused by these words.

Conqueror King: "Before joining Holy Grail War? What do you mean? Didn't you join Holy Grail War as Heroic Spirit?"

Saber hummed. "That's right, I didn't respond to Holy Grail War when I became Heroic Spirit after death, but I responded to Holy Grail War's call as a living person."

!!!

The amount of information was so huge that the scene immediately went silent, and people in the real world were also shocked.

Saber seemed to feel that the amount of information was not large enough, and continued, "I ended up in Battle of Camlann. I was in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. When my heart was full of despair and pain, I met Archbishop of Destiny. Then, I signed a contract with him on the condition of participating in Holy Grail War."

"After that, my will was called by Holy Grail. When the response was reached, I came to this era as Servant."
