"I hate to say it, but this King must admit that thing is seriously bad news, Lancer."
Iskandar looked at the lifeless Waver in his arms, his rugged, boisterous face filled with seriousness.
Although weighing this issue on a scale was an incredibly cruel thing to do, at this mont, the only option was to destroy that monster.
Of course, if they did so, the Master in his arms would naturally die along with the monster, just as Gilgash had said.
Ultimately, everyone in this city was already in a state of "death." Unless soone could release the souls that were being used to sacrifice to that monster.
But, did such a thod even exist?
Iskandar did not know, and they did not have that much ti.
"If you heard , then get out of this King's way, boy. This King will not repeat himself. Or do you wish to continue obstructing this King?"
His gaze instantly turned icy. Gilgash stared at the young man, his body radiating a majestic aura.
"I do not wish to stop you, but I hope you can give so ti. After all, the lives of a city and the future of the planet... the mont you compare these two things, the question has already lost its aning."
Aozaki Rin did not back down an inch, but continued to speak with sincerity.
"Since you said that monster has not yet fully descended, may I ask how much ti is left before it does, Mr. Gilgash?"
"...Half an hour at most. What are you planning to do, boy?"
Gilgash narrowed his eyes, as if trying to see through the young man's thoughts.
"Half an hour... I understand. I will do my best to find a solution within that ti and prevent that monster from causing any harm."
"Ridiculous. And what if you fail, boy? Is this planet to be gradually 'poisoned' to death because of your naive ideas?"
"If I do not succeed by the very last mont, then please, Mr. Gilgash, do not hold back. Destroy along with that monster."
Understanding that if it ca to that, he would likely still be entangled with the monster and have no extra ti to dodge, forcing Gilgash to wait to release his Noble Phantasm, Rin stated his resolve decisively. He held the golden-tinged Spear of Longinus, said no more, snapped his fingers, ford a pair of paper wings on his back, and flew downwards.
"...Arrogant. How many tis have you offended this King's dignity now, boy."
Watching the young man's retreating back as he leaped down, Gilgash pursed his lips and muttered to himself, but he did not raise the Sword of Rupture again.
"Ha, perhaps this is what it ans to be young. Now I believe you, Lancer. That fellow is indeed, as you said, likely a 'Son of God' descended in this era, and not the historical Longinus."
"But, after what he just did, this King is feeling his blood boil again after a long ti."
Iskandar summoned his chariot, placed Waver's body on the deck, and sat down, raising an eyebrow.
"We've already co this far. How much more desperate can things get? So, King of Heroes, this King will accompany that youth and give it a try. If he still hasn't succeeded by the last mont, then do as the boy said and swing your sword."
"Hah, you don't need to tell . This King will act of his own accord."
"Is that so? Then I am relieved."
Having received his answer, Iskandar smiled. He then looked at the pale-faced El-lloi II beside him and extended a hand in invitation.
"Although I don't know which Servant you are, are you interested in joining this King to lend that youth a hand?"
For a mont, it was as if he had returned to the distant past. El-lloi II was stunned for a second. But he soon let out a light laugh, and with the etiquette of a subject, he bowed slightly.
"It would be my honor, King of Conquerors."
The sound of thunder then echoed across the sky.
Watching Iskandar and El-lloi II leave the sky-boat on the chariot, Gilgash walked to the bow. He gazed at the rift in the sky and saw that it was gradually spreading towards the Fuyuki Great Grail.
"An attraction between a malevolent thing and a defiled thing? In the end, they are just two of a kind."
His crimson eyes gazed into the distance. Gilgash, holding the sword that could cleave the world, muttered softly to himself.
"If you can do it, then present a better solution to this King, boy..."
...
"So if we can't find a way to retrieve those souls from that monster within half an hour, everyone in the city will die?"
After listening to Rin's brief explanation, Arthur's expression beca grave.
If it were just a matter of simply defeating the monster, he could do it with his released holy sword.
But in that case, his thod would be no different from Gilgash's and would not fundantally change the current situation.
"Yes."
Rin nodded, his voice also heavy. Honestly, half an hour was far too short.
If not for a feeling deep in his heart telling him that nothing was impossible if he truly wanted to do it, he probably would have despaired at the current situation as well.
"...I understand the situation. So, how do you need to cooperate with you, Lancer?"
Taking a deep breath to clear away other emotions, Arthur asked solemnly.
"I can't be sure of the specifics yet, but if possible, could I trouble you to use that holy sword to temporarily break the alien laws on that monster, Mr. Arthur?"
"Are you planning to..."
As if having thought of sothing, Arthur's expression beca one of disbelief.
"That's right. I want to get into close contact with that monster. I believe that is the only way to release those souls."
Silently sensing the power that seed to be still dormant within the Spear of Longinus in his hand, Rin's intuition told him that only this could achieve the result he desired.
"Although controlling the output will be slightly difficult, I swear on my na, Arthur Pendragon, that I will do it!"
He already roughly knew in his heart that the young man's true identity likely belonged to this era. Arthur's heart was complicated at this mont.
Just standing here and looking at that grotesque thing, he could already feel a ntal toxin faintly corroding the depths of his mind. If not for his strong will, he would probably have already descended into madness.
And if he were to make direct contact at a closer range, Arthur couldn't imagine what level of ntal burden that would entail.
In his view, the young man had already gambled his life on this. Then he, naturally, had to stake all his honor as a knight on it as well.
"Thank you for your trust, Mr. Arthur."
Rin said sincerely. At that mont, accompanied by the sound of thunder, a chariot trailing lightning arrived before them.
"Since you've already decided to go all-in, then let this King join you, boy!"
