Chapter 234: Wishes and Appeals (Revised)
As the Conqueror King spoke out his question, the expressions of the extremely heroic spirits present changed slightly, and it was obvious that his words inspired some memories.
Seeing a full glass of wine appear in the empty glass again, the Conqueror King drank heavily again, and then continued: "[Archer], I must admit that the best wine you brought out is indeed worthy of being praised by the emperor. The Holy Grail comes as a foil - but unfortunately, the Holy Grail is not meant to hold wine.”
"Now we are conducting a Holy Grail Q&A to consider whether each other is qualified to obtain the Holy Grail. First, you have to tell us why you want the Holy Grail. [Archer], as the king, you will find a way to convince us that you are qualified to obtain it. Holy Grail."
What the King of Conqueror said was echoed by Gilgamesh's astonishing words: "If this is what you think, you are absolutely wrong! You want to determine your qualifications to obtain the Holy Grail in this way. But the premise is that the Holy Grail is not ours! Then, under this premise, we can 'fight' for the Holy Grail!"
Although there was no explicit explanation, the people present were not ignorant young men who had no experience in the world, so they could naturally understand the meaning of Jin Shining's words.
Due to Gilgamesh's status as king and his arrogant personality, they did not think he was lying, but it was precisely because of this that the Conqueror King and others found it a bit incredible.
The Holy Grail is actually his? ! !
At this moment, Arturia and Mordred, who were busy reminiscing about the past at the round table, quietly pricked up their ears, wanting to see if there were any bigger melons to eat!
Seeing everyone's reaction, Jin Shining sighed helplessly, and the previous ripples appeared around him again, but this time the scope of the twisted ripples was extremely large, tens of meters high and about ten meters wide, covering the terrace. The space in the left and right directions is occupied.
The next moment, countless Noble Phantasms emerged from these twisted ripples!
In addition to weapons such as swords, spears, and spears, there are also many strange-looking treasures. Judging from the brilliance on their surfaces, they all have unique functions.
"Originally, it should have been my property. All the treasures in the world originated from my collection, but after a long time, it was lost from my treasure house, but its owner is still me."
Demonstrating a wave of his financial resources, Jin Shining was full of confidence and pride when he spoke.
"Then you mean, have you ever owned the Holy Grail? Do you know what it is?" The Conqueror King looked at the many treasures behind Jin Shining and asked while thinking about the possibility of snatching something from him.
Not grabbing it would be a disgrace to my own rule. There are too many good things!
Waving his hand to hide his king's treasure house, Jin Shining denied the King of Conqueror's questioning.
"That's not the case. This is not what you can understand. The total amount of my property even exceeds my own cognitive scope, but as long as it is a 'treasure', then it must belong to me. This is very clear. I actually want to force myself to You should have some self-awareness when taking away my treasure.”
At this time, Zhao Chen denied Jin Shining's statement: "If it is the Holy Grail as a treasure, it should be the legendary Holy Grail containing the holy blood of Jesus. Although the one we are fighting for has the name of 'Holy Grail' , but that’s just because of his miraculous power.”
"Maybe, but this Holy Grail is destined to be included in my collection!"
Regarding Zhao Chen's statement, Gilgamesh shrugged and said it didn't matter.
"So [Archer], that means as long as you nod and agree, we can get the Holy Grail?"
The Conqueror King thought for a while and continued to ask. He was still a little curious, but he already had a general understanding of Jin Shining's true identity.
"Of course, but I have no reason to reward rats like you." Jin Shining said disdainfully.
"Are you reluctant to part with it?"
"Of course not, I only reward my subjects and people."
Jin Shining smiled mockingly at the Conqueror King and said, "Or [Rider], if you are willing to surrender to me, then I will give you one or two cups."
"Ah, although I really want to get the Holy Grail, I still can't do it."
The Conqueror King scratched his chin, as if he felt that the other party's conditions were too high, so he simply turned away: "By the way, [Archer], actually it doesn't matter to you whether you have the Holy Grail, you are not here to achieve anything. It’s the desire to fight for the Holy Grail.”
"Of course. But I can't let go of the guy who took my treasure. This is a matter of principle."
"That is to say -" The Conqueror King drained the wine that was once again filled in his cup. "What does that mean? Is there any reason?"
"It's the law." Gilgamesh said this with unprecedented seriousness. "The rules I established as the king."
The Conqueror King nodded: "What a perfect king, able to implement the laws he set. But, I still want the Holy Grail. My approach is to grab it if I want it, because I, Iskandar, is the Conqueror. King, my belief is 'conquest', which means 'capture' and 'invasion'!"
"If this is your wish, I very much welcome it. But as long as you violate it, I will definitely impose sanctions. There is no room for negotiation."
"Then we can only meet on the battlefield."
Gilgamesh and the King of Conquerors nodded at the same time with a serious look on their faces, and then poured the wine from the cup into their mouths at the same time. If you ignore their words and expressions, it might look more like an invitation to drink between friends.
"What about you? Why do you want the Holy Grail?"
This is Gilgamesh's question, and the person asking the question is the King of Conquerors. He no longer intends to call the King of Conquerors "miscellaneous cultivator" because he really sees [Rider]'s qualifications as a king!
The King of Conquerors actually smiled a little embarrassedly. He took a sip of wine and replied: "I want to become a human. Although I have appeared in this world, I only rely on magic. I want to reincarnate in this world and live as a human."
"This is the basis of 'conquest'. With a body, I will move towards the world and carry out my conquest - that is my way of kingship. But now I don't have a body, this is not okay. Without this, everything can't start. I am not afraid of anything, I just feel that I must have a body!"
The King of Conquerors was telling his wish very seriously, even though this wish seemed so small and simple to others.
Golden Flash seemed to be listening carefully to the words of the King of Conquerors, and just drank the wine silently from beginning to end. After careful observation, it can be found that he showed a strange expression different from the past. It may be a bit far-fetched to describe it as a smile, but compared with his usual mocking expression before, this smile contains a layer of viciousness.
"It's decided - [Rider], I will kill you with my own hands."
"Haha, you still say such things now. You'd better be prepared as soon as possible. Not only the Holy Grail, I also plan to plunder your treasure house. Such a good wine let the Conqueror King drink it, you are really too careless!"
The Conqueror King laughed wildly, showing his full blood and gushing desire!
After laughing for a while, he and Jin Shanshan drank another glass of wine, and then looked at the two Heroic Spirits who looked very similar and were reminded of the memories of the round table.
"So what is your wish, [Saber] and [Berserker], why did you participate in the Holy Grail War and come to this world?"
Faced with the Conqueror King's question, Altria and Mordred showed two completely different faces.
The former had a solemn expression and a very firm look in his eyes, but underneath this firmness was a very secret pain.
But the latter's face turned slightly red, but her eyes were filled with a firmness that was completely different from that of Altria, without any emotion mixed in, as if what he was about to say was not only a wish, but also an indisputable fact!
