Use FGO to open the second dimension

Looking at the interaction between him and Weber, one is strong and the other always looks aggrieved, isn't this—
Koizumi couldn't help but shudder. It would be better to stay away from Iskandar from now on.
However, before Koizumi could say anything else, Iskandar's voice came again.
"Hey! Kid, didn't you say you would come to our party? Why haven't you come yet? Are you scared?"
As he spoke, Iskandar's voice turned playful, causing Koizumi to roll his eyes at him.
I have the guts to speak so arrogantly to Gilgamesh. It's just a mere banquet. I came here for this in the first place. I don't even know how to spell the word "afraid." Koizumi snorted coldly, then slowly stepped forward.
"Who's afraid? It's just a party. I've been wanting to see what a party is like for a long time."
Koizumi slowly walked forward, but just as he reached the seat, he seemed to have thought of something and looked behind him.
"Any of you want to join us for a drink? It's free, it's a waste not to drink."
Hearing this, El-Melloi II looked at Iskandar with a complicated expression, while Mashu and Ritsuka also shook their heads.
"Senior and I are not yet adults. We can't drink alcohol before we reach adulthood."
So these two girls aren't even adults yet? Koizumi glanced at Ritsuka and Mashu in surprise.
Diarmuid and Youmu also shook their heads. They both positioned themselves as followers and servants. From this perspective, they believed that they were not qualified to sit together.
Since they all said so, Koizumi couldn't force them to join him.
After all, who would ask others to attend a banquet? Wouldn't that make things very miserable for our side?
"Sakura, just follow Mashu and the others. They will protect you. Be obedient."
Koizumi smiled and patted Sakura's head. Sakura nodded obediently and huddled closer to Mashu.
Mashu also looked at Koizumi, a look of deep determination on her face.
"Please rest assured, Koizumi-senpai, I will protect Sakura!"
Chapter 479: Once Possessed the Holy Grail
"Sorry, sorry, I kept you waiting." Koizumi said sheepishly, as if it were a gathering of old friends.
Although there was an embarrassed look on his face, his words and actions were full of composure. This composure alone made Iskandar admire him. This kid was considered a very good warrior even in his time. Both his current temperament and the way he blocked Kim Pika before were enough to make his eyes light up.
At this moment, Koizumi and the other three slowly sat down, forming a square.
Iskandar turned his gaze to Gilgamesh standing beside him, still with a generous smile on his face.
"Hey, Archer, bring out another cup. You shouldn't be that stingy!"
Gilgamesh's cold eyes glanced at Koizumi in front of him, the murderous intent on his face showing no sign of weakening.
Even though he had spared his life, it didn't mean he would forgive the bastard. If he could, he would have given Koizumi a good beating, but he wouldn't have done that if it weren't for his dignity as a king.
"Not just any bastard can use my wine cup." Gilgamesh sneered as he said this.
"Well, don't be so stingy, it's just a wine glass." Iskandar was speechless.
"Forget it, King of Conquerors. It's just a wine glass. Don't bother the King of Heroes. I can handle it myself."
As he said this, a gap slowly opened up in front of Gu Quan. He remembered every shopkeeper along the way, even the ones selling wine glasses and utensils, so the gap would come in handy at this moment. Although it was considered theft, in Gu Quan's mind... could taking something be confused with stealing?
Stealing is done secretly, but I am taking it openly, okay?
Slowly, Gu Quan took out a glass wine glass from the gap, so as not to lose face.
"This……"
A hint of surprise flashed in Altria's eyes. This was the first time she had seen such a method.
"Oh~ What kind of magic is this?" Iskandar looked at Koizumi in front of him, his eyes full of interest.
Gilgamesh narrowed his eyes slightly, and he sensed a special breath from above the gap.
It was a little like the highest level of clairvoyance he possessed, and it was a breath close to the root.
The next moment, Gilgamesh looked at Koizumi with great interest. He seemed to have underestimated this guy.
A little golden light flashed in Gilgamesh's eyes, and suddenly, a hint of surprise flashed in Gilgamesh's eyes.
However, Gilgamesh quickly suppressed this hint of surprise and returned to normal.
It was enough for him to know what the other party was doing. He had no interest in interfering in the affairs of Koizumi's parallel world. Just as Saber Ryougi Shiki said during the singularity, no one else had the right to say anything about Koizumi's affairs. Only the parties involved were qualified to comment on such matters. As a bystander, he could just watch quietly.
"It's just a little trick, not worth mentioning." Koizumi didn't want to tell the details of this gap, otherwise he would be despised. Koizumi is not Yakumo Yukari, he should still have some dignity!
Yakumo Yukari is a shameless person. After all, she is a youkai idler with negative moral integrity.
"Now that the wine glasses are ready, let's drink! I'm really looking forward to tasting Archer's so-called wine of kings." Iskandar picked up the golden wine jug that Gilgamesh had brought out and poured a glass for Koizumi.
Looking closely, I saw that it was filled with colorless, clear liquid.
Iskandar took the first sip, and immediately his eyes widened with surprise on his face.
“Oh, delicious!!”
Seeing Iskandar like this, even Artoria's curiosity was piqued. Originally, this wasn't a competition to see who was more respectable, but rather a competition of wine.
As the wine flowed down her throat, Altria felt a surge of swelling in her head. This was truly the best wine she had ever tasted, strong yet pure, mellow and refreshing. The rich aroma filled her nostrils, leaving her feeling completely adrift.
Gu Quan couldn't help but take a sip. Although he had never drunk alcohol before, Gu Quan's eyes lit up.
At least he could taste the deliciousness of the wine. Now he couldn't help but feel that Remi and the others who didn't come were at a loss.
It’s a pity that given Gilgamesh’s stinginess, he couldn’t bring any for Remlia and the others.
What a pity, what a pity... Koizumi couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"Great, this is definitely not wine brewed by humans, it must be drunk by gods."
Gilgamesh smiled carefreely at Iskandar, who was so full of praise. He too had sat down at some point, swishing his wine glass contentedly.
"Of course, whether it's wine or swords, I only keep the best things in my treasure house - this is the king's taste."
Koizumi couldn't help but nod his head. Gilgamesh was indeed very good at collecting things. Koizumi was envious of many of his items. Gilgamesh was a wealthy man, and Koizumi really wanted to rob this damned rich man.
This guy is walking on the street with so many treasures. Isn't he really worried that he will be put in a sack and beaten?
Koizumi complained in his heart.
"Archer, your wine is truly the finest that can only be matched by the cup of the greatest treasure - but unfortunately, the Holy Grail is not for holding wine. Now we are conducting the Holy Grail Quiz to determine whether each party is qualified to obtain the Holy Grail. First, you must tell us why you want the Holy Grail. Archer, as a king, you must find a way to convince us that you are worthy of the Holy Grail." Iskandar said to Gilgamesh with a wry smile.
"I really can't stand you. First of all, we are fighting for the Holy Grail. Your question is far from that premise."
"Um?"
Seeing Iskandar raise his eyebrows in surprise, Gilgamesh sighed helplessly.
"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."
"Then you are saying, have you ever owned the Holy Grail? Do you know what it is?"
"Do not."
Gilgamesh dismissed Iskandar's question calmly.
"This is beyond your comprehension. The total amount of my wealth is beyond my comprehension, but as long as it is a [treasure], it definitely belongs to me. This is clear. You actually want to rob my treasure. You should have some self-awareness."
Upon hearing this, Koizumi nodded in understanding. If the King's Treasure is the prototype of all Heroic Spirits' Noble Phantasms, then it can also be called the original source of human wisdom. If that's the case, then it seems quite reasonable that the Holy Grail could be Gilgamesh's personal treasure. Is this how Gilgamesh perceives things?
Koizumi couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Chapter 480 The King's Conversation
Having said that, the Holy Grail was really of little use to Koizumi. Chaldea already had two Holy Grails, and even Ritsuka and the others on Chaldea's side had two Holy Grails, for a total of four Holy Grails. So, the Holy Grail they were pursuing was not much different from the waste collected during waste recycling.
After hearing Gilgamesh's words, Artoria snorted coldly and spoke slowly, "What you said is no different from the ravings of a madman. It seems that Berserker is not the only one who is mentally disturbed."
Artoria's words caught Koizumi's attention. "Are you calling your strongest knight a lunatic?" Never mind. Artoria didn't know Berserker was Lancelot. That was perfectly normal.
And after all, a normal Berserker is actually a madman in the eyes of others.
After all, to be able to take on the job of Berserker, doesn't that mean he had a tendency towards madness in his lifetime?
But unlike Altria, Iskandar muttered as if he was just following the voice. He had already picked up the bottle and poured more wine into the glass without a care.
"Come to think of it, your real name was revealed by this brat before, and there is probably only one king who is more arrogant than me, Iskandar."
Having said this, Irisviel and Waver immediately listened attentively, but Iskandar suddenly changed the subject, which made the two of them twitch their lips. You did this on purpose!
"So Archer, does that mean that as long as you nod and agree, we can get the Holy Grail?"
"Of course, but I have no reason to reward rats like you." Gilgamesh said with a sneer.
"Are you reluctant?" Iskandar looked at Gilgamesh in front of him and asked slowly.
"Of course not, I only reward my subjects and people."
Gilgamesh smiled mockingly at Iskandar in front of him.
"Or Rider, if you are willing to surrender to me, then I will give you one or two cups."
"...Ah, this is impossible."
Iskandar scratched his chin, as if he felt that the other party's conditions were too high, so he simply turned his head away.
"But Archer, it doesn't really matter to you whether the Holy Grail exists or not. You're not fighting for the Holy Grail just to fulfill some wish." Iskandar couldn't help but ask.
"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——"
Iskandar drank the wine in his glass, frowning slightly.
"What does that mean? Is there any reason?"
"It's the law, the law I made as king."
Gilgamesh replied immediately.
Iskandar seemed to understand what he said and sighed deeply.
"What a perfect king, able to implement the laws he has set. But, I still want the Holy Grail. What I do is grab it if I want it, because I, Iskandar, am the conquering king."
"Not necessarily. As long as you commit a crime, I can punish you. There is no room for negotiation."
"Then we can only meet on the battlefield."
Gilgamesh nodded seriously along with Iskandar.
"——But Archer, let's have a drink first, and let's leave the fight for later."
"Unless of course you don't like the wine I brought."
"Are you kidding me? There's no way I can bear to drink the wine now."
At this moment, Iskandar and Gilgamesh seemed to no longer be enemies, and they laughed at the same time. Artoria looked at the two of them with a puzzled look, and then turned her gaze to Iskandar.
"King of Conquerors, you have agreed that the rightful ownership of the Holy Grail belongs to someone else, but you still want to use your force to snatch it away? You are willing to do this, what exactly do you want to do with the Holy Grail?" Artoria did not hide her doubts.
"Body!" Iskandar's old face turned red. After hesitating for a while, he embarrassedly expressed his wish, which surprised Gilgamesh and Weber.
Even Koizumi was slightly taken aback and glanced at Iskandar.
If I didn't know this guy's personality, seeing his blushing face, I would really think of something wrong.
"Huh?" Gilgamesh was stunned, and even Artoria was a little confused.
"Huh!? You, isn't your wish to conquer the world? How did you become a physical being?"
Weber, who was standing behind him, was slightly startled after hearing this, and then he couldn't help but run forward and speak.
But the next second, Iskandar just waved his hand lightly and easily knocked him away.
"That idiot!" Seeing this scene, the corners of El-Melloi II's mouth twitched, as if he felt very embarrassed, and slowly raised his hands to cover his old face.
To be honest, seeing Weber like this is like facing his own dark history!
Even El-Melloi II couldn't bear this intense feeling of shame.
Koizumi couldn't help but twitch his lips. This scene was really quite funny, Waver and the future El-Melloi II.
To be honest, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, it would be hard to understand that these two guys were the same person.
Although growth is something that is difficult to explain, it does not mean that growth will necessarily lead to big changes.
If it's a woman, it's understandable. After all, there's a saying that goes, "Girls change a lot when they grow up." But for men...
Forget it, it's better not to think too much... Seeing Waver and El-Melloi II, Koizumi started to worry a little about what he would be like when he grew up. To avoid thinking about that, let's get back to the point.
