Chapter 66: End of the First Night of Battle

Saber and Lancer were still fighting hard when lightning struck from above in between them and with a mighty war cry, Rider set his flying chariot down between the two of them.

Rider grandly opened his arms, startling Lancer and Saber before saying.

"Both of you sheathe your swords! You are in the presence of a king!"

"My name is Iskandar, King of Conquerors! I have manifested under the RIder class in this Holy Grail War." He introduced himself, leaving everyone, most of all his own master speechless.

"What the hell are you thinking you idiot!?" Waver finally got out but all he received in return was another mighty forehead flick.

"Nice entrance!" Jun praised.

"Very grand and fitting." He added.

"Hahahaha! So there is someone here with taste!" Iskandar welcomed the praise.

"Fate has brought us all together to fight for the Holy Grail but first, there is something I'd like to ask. Saber, Lancer." He began.

"Would you consider yielding the Grail to me and joining my army? If you do so, I shall treat you both as friends and we shall share in the joy of world conquest together!" Iskandar asked.

Lancer shook his head with exasperation but still responded politely.

"That offer . . . I'm afraid I'll have to decline. I will give the Holy to only one man, my new avowed lord. Never to you Rider!"

"So you disturbed our battle merely to propose that ridiculous plan?" Saber inquired.

"As a knight, this is an unforgivable insult!" She exclaimed.

"I'd be willing to discuss terms." Rider countered while making the sign for monetary compensation with his right hand.

""Shut up!"" Lancer and Saber just about had enough.

"Besides . . ." Saber started.

"I myself am a King responsible for Britain's wellbeing. No matter how great of a king you may be, I cannot lower myself to the rank of subject." She declared.

"King of Britain you say?" Rider echoed.

"What a surprise!" He exclaimed.

"I didn't expect the King of Knights to be a little girl!" Rider added.

"Would you like a taste of this little girl's blade, King of Conquerors!?" Saber exclaimed.

"Looks like negotiations have broken down. What a waste! What a shame!" Rider commented.

"Rideeeerrrrrr!" Waver complained.

"So it turned out to be you . . ." Kayneth's voice sounded out.

"I wondered What compelled you to steal my relic but it turned out you were planning on competing in the Holy Grail War yourself, Waver Velvet-kun." He continued.

"I shall take this opportunity as a special case and give you an extra lesson on the true meaning of Magi killing each other . . . About the fear and pain involved in that act." Kayneth declared, making Waver shiver is fear.

Jun found Kayneth more irritating than he expected and he was becoming a little bit to much of a side character for his taste so he decided to do something about him.

Raising his hand and faster than anyone could react, Jun shot an Origin Gandr, a Gandr made from Origin Runes and took out Kayneth's leg making him fall down the room he was in tumbling down before Lancer caught him and glared at Jun.

Rider just roared in laughter while Artoria and Irisviel looked at Jun in shock.

"What? He was starting to annoy me." Jun "innocently" said.

"I get the feeling." Rider gave Jun a thumbs up.

"But now that the voice in the shadows has shown itself . . . How about the rest of you come out!" He shouted.

'Is he talking about Jun's Servant?' Artoria and Irisviel thought.

"Saber and Lancer, the duel between you two was truly magnificent. I can't be the only heroic spirit drawn to such a clash." Rider continued.

"Heroic spirits summoned by the Grail, gather here and now! Know that those too cowardly to show themselves cannot escape the scorn of Iskandar, King of Conquerors!" He called out.

Hearing this, Gilgamesh appeared in all of his golden glory, materializing on top of a lamp post.

"To think two insolent knaves dare call themselves kings in my presence in a single night." Gilgamesh commented.

"You are mistaken." Rider pointed out.

"I'm Iskandar, the legendary King of Conquerors himself." He declared.

"Nonsense." Archer responded.

"I am the only Hero King in this Heaven and Earth. The rest are just a bunch of mongrels." He added.

Rider was about to start talking but in that moment, Morgan revealed herself and joined Jun and Irisviel.

"Oh? And who might you be? Caster perhaps?" Rider asked.

"Indeed." Morgan simply replied and said no more.

Turning to Archer once again, Rider was just about to open his mouth when Kariya sent out Berserker to kill Gilgamesh.

Naturally, Gilgamesh felt insulted by the mere fact that Berserker was staring at him so he simple opened the Gate of Babylon and fired two weapons from it at him.

Showing his unrivalled mastery, Berserker grabbed the first weapon that came flying, and used it to deflect the second.

Further enraged by berserker laying his hand on his treasures, Gilgamesh sent more barrages of weapons, doubling the number of projectiles with each barrage.

Berserker nearly reached his limit with sixteen weapons but still managed to throw two of them back, silencing the lamp post Gilgamesh was standing on and forcing him to the ground.

"You insolent dog." Gilgamesh started, barely containing his rage.

"You would have, who belongs on the Heavens stand in the same ground as you!?" He irately shouted.

"You're insolence has sealed your doom!" Archer exclaimed as he opened his GAte of Babylon further, intending on launching a barrage sufficiently powerful to eliminate everyone there, with the exception of Jun and Morgan.

However, apprehensive about his Servant showing his noble phantasm so many times, Tokiomi used a command spell to bid Gilgamesh to quell his anger and retreat.

"You dare command a King's retreat? You have some nerve Tokiomi." Archer said to his master before turning to those present.

"Mongrels! See that you culled your numbers. Only a true hero is worthy of facing me." He said before disappearing.

"Looks like Archer's master is not as pridefully stubborn as he is." Rider commented after Gilgamesh left.

Its looked like hostilities were about to come to an end but suddenly, Berserker let out and inhuman battle cry and he madenly grabbed the middle piece of the severed lamp post and enhanced it with his magical energy before jumping at Artoria swinging.

This time, Artoria was no injured so she competently parried and knocked away Berserker, fully confident in her ability to defeat her opponent. At least for now as she had yet to know his identity.

Berserker charged again but Lancer intervened, slicing away the pole using the special ability of his long spear, Gae Dearg.

"Apologies but Saber already has business with me." Lancer declared.

'Oh? I wasn't expecting him to do that since Saber is not injured.' Jun thought as he continued watching.

"What are you doing Lancer? Isn't it now the opportunity to defeat Saber?" Kayneth said.

Lancer tried to convince his master to let him finish of Berserker first but Kaneyneth used his command spell to force him to assist the mad warrior which left Saber in hot water.

"Irisviel stand back with Jun and run! I'll try to hold them off here!" Artoria exclaimed.

"Saber!" Irisviel shouted, looking at Jun for help.

Berserker and Lancer dashed towards Saber, going for the kill.

"Caster." Jun simply said.

Morgan summoned a spear and plunged it into the ground, casing a portal to open above Berserker and Lancer and a giant spear stuck down at blinding speed.

Lancer barely dodged because it wasn't aimed at him but Berserker was speared into the ground, giving a shriek of mad pain.

Everyone but Jun was shocked at Morgan's display but she was not done.

"Accolon." She chanted and Berserker's magical energy was drained, making him unable to resist.

Then she summoned multiple small spears hovers around herself and had them shot into her but, rather than injuring Morgan, the popped out from within Berserker's body, dealing a fatal blow.

WIth his armor shattered and his noble phantasm deactivated, Berserker could finally be seen in full and Artoria was utterly shocked at who it was.

"Sir . . . Lancelot . . ." She got out, shocking everyone present.

"ARTHUR!" He shouted with his dying breath.

"Why my friend, to go so low as to become Berserker . . ." Artoria asked but Berserker disappeared, no answer being given and Jun stealthily collected his essence.

"Kayneth was it? Have Lancer retreat before I give him the same." Jun threatened.

"Tch! Retreat Lancer. It's over for tonight" Kayneth spouted.

"Thank you, master of Caster." Lancer said.

"No problem." Jun replied and Lancer disappeared.

"Well . . . Looks like you have your own business to care care of so I won't overstay my welcome." Rider said and went way on his chariot, dragging an unconscious Waver with him.
