Chapter 343: Artoria's Oath

Views:

Shinji said.

He told Altria the fact that he was a time traveler and his own uniqueness.

It wasn't because he suddenly had the idea to make a big news, or because he was desperate after knowing Altria's identity, but because this was the best option.

Artoria's character determined that she would not lie about such things. She said that the two major inhibitory forces were paying attention to this Holy Grail War, which must be true. Since the inhibitory forces were paying attention, then Shinji's identity as a time traveler must have been known to the inhibitory forces long ago.

Although from Altria's performance, the Restraint didn't seem to tell her Shinji's true identity, but not telling her now doesn't mean not telling her in the future. Even if the Restraint remained silent from beginning to end, the exchange of dreams between the two of them due to the master-servant contract is likely to expose Shinji's true identity. After all, Scathach directly browsed Shinji's past life through the contract, and Shinji also took a quick look at Scathach's life.

In other words, Artoria will know Shinji's true identity sooner or later. Rather than waiting for it to be exposed in the future and affect the relationship between the two, it is better to speak out directly and show that you are open and honest, which will actually reduce Artoria's vigilance.

Of course, Shinji has another choice - to follow the example of several Lancer masters and order Altria to commit suicide. But this is meaningless. With the two major inhibitory forces as a backing, Altria may not be restrained by the Command Spell. Even if she really commits suicide, the inhibitory forces can send other observers, or even judge Shinji as a threat because of this action, and directly send guardians to eliminate him.

Therefore, Shinji made this seemingly stupid choice.

To Shinji's surprise, Altria's reaction was unusually calm. Apart from a hint of surprise in her emerald eyes and a faint "Oh", she said, "So, Shinji, you are from a parallel world." There was no other reaction.

Shinji was a little uncomfortable with this kind of Altria. In his impression, if she encountered something she didn't agree with, she would take a very fierce attitude, even if it was someone close to her.

"Uh, why are you reacting like that? I'm the uncertainty factor. I'm your mission target. How come you're not nervous at all?"

"No, Shinji, you are wrong." Altria's ahoge swayed left and right, as if shaking her head on behalf of her master. "I know that you are an uncertain factor, but you are not my target."

"Why do you say that?" Shinji didn't understand.

Altria asked back: "It's very simple, Shinji, do you have the ability to pose a major threat to humanity and the planet?"

"No." Shinji suddenly realized.

Indeed, among the creatures on Earth, Shinji is already very strong, but he is still nothing compared to the planet under his feet and the entire human race. Even if he gets the Holy Grail, he doesn't have the ability to cause the restraining force to be alerted. Not to mention that he has no thoughts against the planet or humanity in his heart. If someone really wants to harm the planet or humanity, Shinji will definitely stand up to stop it.

"So, you are not my target." Artoria confirmed, "Not only that, you can help me. My intuition tells me so."

"Thank you for your trust—but if it's not me, who else could it be?"

Shinji muttered as he thought.

The group of masters from Qianjieshu were ruled out first. There was nothing noteworthy about them in terms of strength or goals.

So it's the Red Team? There are seven Masters participating in the Red Team this time.

The Lion Tribulation Realm is essentially no different from the Thousand World Tree and can be ignored.

Five of the remaining six masters... well, even Shinji, a fan of the setting and a veteran Moon fan, couldn't remember their names.

There is no way. In "Fate Apocrypha", these five masters are a tragedy. They only appear with a name and a few lines, and there is not even a description of their appearance (it is better in the animation and comics, as their faces are shown).

Although these five people are set to be famous combat magicians in the magic world, before they could display their abilities, they were manipulated by the last Master of the Red Team and played supporting roles throughout.

Then it was the mastermind behind this Holy Grail War, the last Master of the Red side, Kotomine Shiro, also known as Amakusa Shiro Tokisada? It was not impossible that he was targeted by the Suppression Force.

The wish he wants to achieve through the Holy Grail is the salvation of all mankind. The way is to use the Holy Grail to trigger a miracle and turn all mankind into immortal beings, so as to eliminate war and achieve world peace. He has been planning for this for more than 60 years and has made sufficient preparations. Almost all factors have been taken into account. As long as nothing unexpected happens, mankind will soon be redefined.

Although he did not destroy humanity directly, there was undoubtedly a great risk in changing the entire way humanity exists. No one knows whether humanity will prosper or die once it becomes immortal. This is enough to alert Alaya.

Transforming the existence of all mankind would require immeasurable magical power, which might dry up the spiritual veins of the entire world. This would also have a huge impact on the Earth, and it is not impossible to attract Gaia's attention.

In "Fate apocrypha", the protagonist Sieg was able to stop Amakusa Shiro because the inhibitory force was secretly helping him. Otherwise, how could Sieg, a cyborg who was born not long ago, survive many disasters and turn a disaster into a blessing, and finally defeat Amakusa Shiro who had the upper hand

This time, due to my intrusion, Sieg's various opportunities were bound to be affected, so the Suppression Force changed its strategy and sent Artoria, and I also helped Artoria. Maybe Vlad III's transformation from a lancer to a berserker was also the interference of the Suppression Force, so that Artoria could appear in the world as a lancer.

In this class, although Altria does not have the famous Sword of Promised Victory, she has a treasure that is more powerful than a sword. This treasure symbolizes the protection of human principles, and it is perfect to use this treasure to deal with Amakusa Shiro who intends to subvert human principles.

This makes sense, but why do I still feel like something is wrong? Are there any other factors I haven't thought of? Are there the five unnamed masters

"Shinji, Shinji? Have you thought of anything?" Altria on the opposite side looked at the Master's increasingly frowning brows and asked.

"I have some ideas, but they are immature. Let's proceed with the Holy Grail War step by step. It won't be too late to draw conclusions once we have enough information."

Shinji didn't reveal his thoughts in the end. They were all based on his judgment of "Fate Apocrypha", which was difficult to explain and difficult to guarantee accuracy, but this did not prevent him from making a commitment to the Knight King he had liked for ten years.

"Altolia, no matter who your ultimate target is, I will stand by your side and fight with you."

"I promise in the name of the Knight that I will obtain the Holy Grail for you!"

Altria's expression was solemn and serious. This was the knight's belief and the knight's oath. That determination and dignity overwhelmed everything.

PS: Even the way humans exist has changed. Isn’t this subverting human nature
