Use FGO to open the second dimension

"If you were still alive, then for the sake of the country's continuation, no one would have anything to say. However, since the end has come, why continue to cling to your past? No matter how painful and desperate the past was, don't deny your past. It's wrong!"

"Are you asking me, a king, to abandon my country? I'm sorry! I can't do that!"

Altria said, shaking her head.

"So you're going to abandon your men, Artoria! Are you going to abandon the great achievements of the Knights of the Round Table who fought for you? Their efforts, their blood, their glory, are you going to throw them all away here? Are you going to deny the value of their existence here? Are you going to deny the loyalty of Bedivere, the Knight of the Round Table who stood by you until the very end?"

Altria was speechless for a moment, thinking back to the past, which was everything she could not let go of.

Seeing Artoria like this, Koizumi couldn't help but sigh deeply.

"Besides, even the Holy Grail can't grant your wish!"

Chapter 483 Sneak Attack

"Besides, even the Holy Grail can't grant your wish!"

"What are you talking about! Isn't the Holy Grail a universal wish-granting machine? How can it not grant my wish!?"

It doesn’t matter if others deny it, after all, this is a road full of thorns.

But if even the Holy Grail cannot be achieved, Artoria will really feel desperate.

After hearing what Koizumi said, her excitement was even more exaggerated than before.

"It's not that it's unattainable, it's that it can't be achieved. You have to understand this essential difference."

Koizumi sighed deeply. He was fully aware of this precisely because he was revising the world and history.

"As a Heroic Spirit, you should be well aware of this, Artoria. However, you've always ignored this issue. What kind of impact will changing history have? I don't need to tell you this, you already know it! If it were just a personal change, it would be fine, but the life and death of a country can have a huge impact on the entire world. And this kind of impact is something the world absolutely cannot allow to happen."

"To change the past is to change the future from the beginning. Do you think the world, the restraining forces, would allow such a thing to happen? Even if you simply wish to prolong Britain for a few more years, it would be impossible. Everything was decided the moment you made up your mind to draw the Sword of Choice."

"And even if you obtain the Holy Grail and make this wish, what awaits you in the end is undoubtedly a messenger sent by the Restraining Force. With the Restraining Force as your backing, destroying the Holy Grail won't be difficult. By then, all your efforts will be in vain. Why bother trying to rewrite the past?"

And there is something called the butterfly effect. Even if you rewrite the past, the present may not be better.

Koizumi sighed deeply inwardly, but didn't say it out loud.

After all, it's already hurtful enough, so why bother saying more? Ultimately, what Altria is doing is an enemy of Chaldea, and when the time comes, Altria will likely be greeted not only by the Guardians of Humanity, but also by the Chaldeans themselves.

Koizumi glanced at Ritsuka and Mashu beside him, but didn't say much.

"How could this happen..." Artoria staggered and took a few steps back, looking like she had lost her dream.

Although facing reality is a very painful thing, there is nothing we can do about it.

The reality is that this is such a cruel game. There is no so-called saving or loading of files, and it is also the most boring game.

You can only keep moving forward, and even if you regret it, you can't look back.

"Koizumi-senpai, isn't it a bit too cruel to expose Miss Saber like this?"

Seeing Artoria like this, Mashu felt very uncomfortable. This was also related to her own spiritual base. Mashu could feel that the owner of this spiritual base had a close relationship with Artoria.

Seeing that Artoria regretted not being able to save Britain, she felt very uncomfortable. The spiritual foundation engraved in her body was shouting that all this had nothing to do with King Arthur.

"It's better to expose it now than to face the reality later. But then again, why do I always find her darker side more pleasing than her real self? Is it a matter of who came first?"

Koizumi curled his lips and said this, which made Mashu and the others frown.

So this is what Mr. Koizumi has always thought? This is really—

"Wake up, and use your own eyes to see the current Britain. See if they really need your salvation. Your so-called salvation is denying their current happy lives. You are sacrificing the happy lives of the British people to redeem what you call a 'mistake'. See if the British people will agree!"

Of course, how would I know about the happy life of the British people?

I was just guessing this. Anyway, it's a peaceful time now, so life shouldn't be too bad.

Koizumi had never been to other places and had always stayed in Chaldea. He had no idea how the people in the outside world lived, but now all countries were in a period of peace. Even if there was a war, it would only be a political and economic war, and no large-scale military campaign would be launched.

After all, basically all major powers have nuclear weapons. If your nuclear weapons are unleashed, they can cleanse the ground. This will not be a small problem if a war breaks out. No one will be stupid enough to initiate a war.

Minor fights are inevitable, but major ones are unlikely.

Altria fell silent for a moment, but the hesitation in her eyes indicated the girl's unrest.

But at this moment, Gu Quan's brows slightly furrowed, and an inexplicable aura suddenly entered Gu Quan's sensing range.

The next moment, everyone else seemed to notice the unusual atmosphere. Of course, besides Irisviel, Tōsaka Sakura, Waver, and Matou Kariya, even Altria, who had a look of frustration on her face just a moment ago, was the first to notice it!

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh…!”

At this moment, several short swords flashing with cold light suddenly flew towards Sakura Tohsaka, El-Melloi II, Matou Kariya, Youmu, Chelsea, Diarmuid, Mash and Ritsuka from several different directions.

Mashu quickly blocked the short sword that was thrown at both herself and Ritsuka.

Diarmuid simply waved the red spear in his hand lightly to block the dagger.

El-Melloi II gently waved the feather fan in his hand, and suddenly a strong wind blew, blocking the dagger.

Berserker Lancelot easily helped Matou Kariya block the dagger.

A hint of surprise flashed in Chelsea's eyes, and she dodged the dagger by just slightly turning her body.

As for Youmu and Tousaka Sakura, Youmu waved the two swords in his hand, one long and one short, and easily blocked the two short swords. Since Tousaka Sakura was relatively close to Youmu, it was also very convenient for Youmu to move.

But - just as everyone was dealing with the daggers, a black shadow silently seized this brief moment and rushed towards Tousaka Sakura at an extremely fast speed.

but--

Just when the other party thought he had succeeded, a gap appeared in front of Tohsaka Sakura, blocking the figure directly. A scarlet aurora shot out from it and hit the other party's chest.

The silver-white skull mask fell off the moment the figure was knocked away, and then the black shadow slowly fell to the ground with blood splattering. Everyone looked towards the figure, and it was Assassin from the Fourth Holy Grail War.

Chapter 484 The Banquet Ends and the Battle Resumes

It's definitely Baimiao. No wonder the attack method just now seemed so familiar. Chelsea complained in her heart.

She had long known that the Assassin in the Holy Grail War here was Hassan the Hundred Faces, and they were old acquaintances.

However, Chelsea also knew that the Hassan of a Hundred Faces summoned here was not the same person she knew, so of course she didn't care too much. She was used to fighting even with acquaintances.

Didn’t I fight with Senior Sister Taeko and Master Barbara at the last singularity?

However, Chelsea said she was very happy to receive their recognition.

"Assassin!" Irisviel was immediately shocked. If she remembered correctly, Assassin should have left the field at the very beginning of the Holy Grail War. How come Assassin appeared here again now?

And if I remember correctly, it was Archer from Tōsaka Tokiomi's side who killed Assassin!

"It seems this banquet should be over. You should think carefully aside for a moment, Saber. If you continue to cling to unrealistic dreams, the result you will face will definitely be hell on earth. Instead of praying unrealistically for your ideals to come true, why not use your own eyes to see the current Britain."

Koizumi patted Artoria's shoulder and spoke slowly as Artoria looked bewildered.

Hearing this, Artoria nodded with a complicated expression. Now she needed to calm down.

Gu Quan silently placed the wine glass in his hand into the gap. The wine was very safe in the gap.

However, Koizumi will regret it when he returns to Chaldea, because Koizumi is not the only one who can open the gap. When Koizumi returns to Chaldea, he finds that the fine wine he stored has been drunk by Yakumo Yukari.

Although he really wanted to beat up Yakumo Yukari, Koizumi was beaten back by Yakumo Yukari in the end.

Of course, these are all things of the past. What is more important now is the battle with Gilgamesh.

As Koizumi slowly stood up, he saw plumes of black smoke, like smoke rising from chimneys, appearing in various places in the courtyard and even on the surrounding rooftops. Figures of varying heights, strength, and thin emerged from the smoke. There were both men and women, all wearing tight black clothing, some even wearing black cloaks. However, without exception, they all wore white skull masks identical to Assassin's.

"This is too chaotic! Why are there so many Assassins?" Weber couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.

"...You did this, didn't you, Kimpika?" Iskandar couldn't help but look at Gilgamesh beside him.

"Hmph! Damn Tokiomi!" A hint of anger flashed in Gilgamesh's eyes, but he still didn't show it on the surface. Of course, these words proved that Gilgamesh was completely unaware of this matter.

"The attack just now was undoubtedly aimed at Sakura. Is that Tōsaka Tokiomi planning to completely abandon his daughter?" A flash of scarlet light flashed in the depths of Koizumi's eyes, mixed with a hint of murderous intent.

"Oh? Tokiomi's daughter!" Gilgamesh couldn't help but cast his gaze towards Sakura Tohsaka beside Youmu, and then cast his gaze towards Koizumi again, with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.

"Boy, are you trying to use that girl to restrain Tokiomi?"

"What do you think? King of Heroes, will this be effective against someone like you?"

Koizumi asked Gilgamesh a question in return, but Gilgamesh chuckled.

"You are very clear about my strength, boy. Since you made me happy for a moment, I will leave you with an intact body!" Gilgamesh said slowly with a slight smile on his face.

"I'll give you the same thing, but heroic spirits turn into photons after death, so it seems difficult to keep a complete corpse."

"Hmph! This is the only time you can take advantage of your words, kid." Gilgamesh snorted coldly.

"It's really full of tension, Kim Pika and you kid." Iskandar said with a smile.

"Now isn't the time to be talking about this! Rider! Everything's in chaos. Anyway, why are Assassins appearing one after another... Isn't there only one Servant of each class!?" Waver couldn't help but ask anxiously.

Seeing Waver like this, El-Melloi II felt his head hurt more and more.

How could he have such a dark past? And Koizumi and the others had seen it all! This was more than just a simple embarrassment! El-Melloi II couldn't help but rub his forehead, sighing with exhaustion.

Likewise, upon seeing Waver in such a state of disarray, the Hassans couldn't help but smirk, "—You're right. We are Servants whose whole is our individual being, and the individual is merely a shadow of the whole."

Koizumi rolled his eyes at the other party and snorted coldly.

"It's just a Heroic Spirit with multiple personalities, manifesting its multiple personalities. Why are you talking so high and mighty? With their individual combat power, any random Heroic Spirit can beat you up, believe it or not."

The next moment, Koizumi turned his gaze to Artoria and Iskandar standing aside.

"King Arthur, King of Conquerors, if you do not wish to be affected, please take your Masters and retreat. From now on, this is no longer a place for a banquet. It is a battlefield for a duel," Koizumi said slowly.

"Well, it seems that the fight between you can't be stopped. In that case, I will just watch quietly until the final winner emerges." Iskandar nodded and spoke slowly.

"Although I really hope you fight somewhere else, since the spearhead is not directed at us, there is no need for us to intervene!"

After a moment's silence, Irisviel could only speak this way.

It's because these guys are unreasonable. I can't just kick them out.

But in fact, there is no way for me to drive them out. It's because these guys are so stupid.

It's impossible for Artoria to beat Gilgamesh, Koizumi and the Assassins alone.

If Artoria had this kind of extreme strength, Einzbern would have swept the Holy Grail War by now.

"That's good." Koizumi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and then cast his gaze towards El-Melloi II.

"I'll trouble you with the Assassins, El-Melloi II. With Zhuge Kongming's power, dealing with these Assassins should be a piece of cake." Koizumi took a deep look at El-Melloi II in front of him.

El-Melloi II nodded. "Leave it to me. I won't let these Assassins get in the way of your side. And as you said, with the power of that famous military advisor, dealing with them is a piece of cake."

As he said this, a complex and incomprehensible formation suddenly appeared under the feet of the Hassans.

The Hassans were shocked to find that they were completely unable to break free from this formation.

Seeing this scene, a glimmer of understanding flashed in Koizumi's eyes. El-Melloi II had inherited more of Zhuge Liang's power in formations. Otherwise, he would have basically used the power of formations.

Chapter 485: Fighting against the Hero King

"Then it's our turn, Gilgamesh, the most ancient hero king!"

Koizumi looked at Gilgamesh in front of him with a stern face, his eyes full of strong fighting spirit, but he still suppressed it with force. Koizumi knew very well that he could not attack casually, because if he fought this guy head-on, he might not be able to win. It would be better to let Youmu give him a try first, so that he would not lose out.

Moreover, judging from the other party's attitude towards me, if I really let the other party take it seriously, I will be in big trouble.

Koizumi could sense the immense amount of energy contained within this guy's body.

Just the moment the [King's Treasure] appeared, I felt a chill.

Gilgamesh is undoubtedly a top-level servant like Esdeath, that is for sure.

"Boy, I now admire your courage. But the king's forgiveness will never fall on you a second time, and the king's wrath is not something you can bear! Anyone who dares to provoke the king must pay the price with death before begging for the king's forgiveness!" Gilgamesh said with a sneer.

Koizumi simply chuckled at Gilgamesh's words, not feeling threatened by him.

"How dare you say such childish things? To put it bluntly, only one of us can survive. Why make it so complicated? I won't let you go even if you don't tell me! Gilgamesh! Don't try to scare me with the title of king. It's all empty talk. Let your strength speak for itself. You don't want your enemy to be the kind of person who gets so frightened by the mere mention of the so-called king that they can't even stand up."

Hearing this, Gilgamesh nodded appreciatively and chuckled.

"Very good! Just because you dare to speak such outrageous words before the king, you have the right to tell me your name. Boy, as a token of my mercy, tell me your name!"

"Guquan!" Guquan said lightly.

"Very well, Koizumi, just try your best to struggle before I kill you!" Gilgamesh sneered.

"Unfortunately, I have to disappoint you, King Gilgamesh. It will be you who will be defeated this time!"

Koizumi shrugged, unwilling to be outdone, but the fighting spirit in his eyes didn't diminish in the slightest.

"You are such an arrogant boy. Although I don't dislike you, let me tell you what will happen if you become my enemy!" Gilgamesh said as he raised his hand slightly.

The next moment, large golden ripples like rippling water waves suddenly appeared and expanded behind him, and dozens of various treasures immediately emerged from the [King's Treasure].
