Chapter 73 - King Hassan Reappears!!

[ Arash looked at the Cursed Arm Hassan figure skillfully leading the refugees into the village, his face revealing an enlightened expression. He said with a complex tone: "So that's how it is! I was wondering why that big brother seemed so familiar with this place. It turns out he was summoned to his own land as a Servant...!"

Then Arash turned to Sir Bedivere and the Chaldea group, raising his bow and arrow, slightly pulling the bowstring, and introduced himself with a smile: "I am Arash, as you can see, I am an archer class Servant."

"Let me lead you into the village. However, since this place is relatively poor, we cannot organize a welcoming party." Arash joked and then led the group into the village! ]

"Such a coincidence again?! That Cursed Arm Hassan was actually summoned to his own era! It's just like you!"

Tohsaka Rin turned her head and looked at Red A [Emiya] with surprise.

"And that Arash class also has the same class as you, which is archer!"

"What's so strange about that?! In the previous video, that King of Heroes wasn't summoned by himself!"

Red A [Emiya] spoke with a very calm tone; after watching so many videos, he was no longer surprised!

[ The group settled in the village, needing food and drink, which required them to go hunting. However, this also made them integrate faster into the village!

The Cursed Arm Hassan, who had been observing secretly, nodded quietly and finally decided that if that adult could help...!

Thus, Hassan of the Cursed Arm led everyone to a Temple the next day. Inside, Hassan's face could not be seen clearly, but his tone was very determined.

"We have made up our minds! Maintaining the current situation will eventually lead to destruction by the Lion King sooner or later..."

"Now is the time for the great divine guidance to take control of fate!"

The Cursed Arm Hassan turned his head towards the Temple and said: "The temple where the angel of death was built is our sacred site!"

"Our sleeping Hasan-i Sabbah The First Hassan! The old man of the mountain!!" ]

...

"This is the assassin from the previous video!"

"That's good! If that old man takes action, it shouldn't be a problem!"

"In the previous video, one strike couldn't even withstand the Creator Goddess...!"

"Unless this Lion King is stronger than Tiamat...!"

The crowd outside the video had full confidence that the old man could win!

[ But when Hassan of the Cursed Arm led the group into the Temple, there was suddenly a flash of light! Then Doctor Roman's astonished voice came through!

"What happened?... Fujimaru Ritsuka's response disappeared in an instant!!"

"Everyone! According to my observations here, Fujimaru Ritsuka is dead..." Doctor Roman's panicked words made everyone fearful! ]

.....

~Projection of All Worlds~

"Is he dead?!..."

"No reaction at all!... Falling to the ground for what? The person is obviously still alive, but appears dead over there."

"So, why did they attack upon meeting? I don't understand..."

"Is this King Hassan? It really feels mysteriously hypnotic...!"

[ At this moment, a deep voice came through the ear: "Magicians... And non-human existence!!"]

"Your voices have been conveyed, the meaning of wanting to save the era has been approved by my sword!!"

A figure wearing a skull mask, dressed in jet-black heavy armor, and holding a black stone longsword appeared before everyone, speaking calmly to the group.

"Welcome to my Temple, I am the old man of the mountain —— Hassan-i-Sabbah."

Seeing the first Hassan, Cursed Arm Hassan looking sincerely at King Hassan, he said: "My Lord, please allow us to shamelessly visit the Temple."

"These people intend to resist against the Lion King, but they lack the fighting power to fight against the Lion King."

"Please lend them a helping hand! All of this is for the future of our mountain people!" The Cursed Arm Hassan bowed his head and spoke with utmost seriousness.

King Hassan turned his gaze towards Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others, then spoke calmly: "Magicians! There are some things you must know!"

"The true intentions of the Lion King, the nonsense spoken by the Sun King brat, the flaws in human nature, and... The beginning of everything!"

Hearing these words, Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others fell into deep thought. Could there be some other reason? Clearly, King Hassan knew the reason, so why didn't he say it? Or does he want Fujimaru Ritsuka to find it themselves?!

"Once you understand everything, my sword will become your vanguard! Sun Knight, called Gawain, right?"

"My sword will transform into a fierce bird pecking out that person's eyes. My black robe will turn into darkness devouring the pure white Holy Capital!" ]

.....

~Projection of All Worlds~

" 'That guy's called Gawain, right?' What a bold statement! As if he doesn't care at all!"

"No wonder it's King Hassan, Grand class has an powerful aura, and his words are different!"

"This era is before the previous video, so does he still have a Grand class rank?..."

"Another strike that will cost me my Grand class...!?"

[ "After understanding everything, I will appear on the battlefield —— As the sword of death!" After saying this, King Hassan turned his gaze toward the Cursed Arm Hassan!

As he moved, blue flames rose in his eyes, raising the longsword in his hand, and sternly said: "That Cursed Arm Hassan, hand over your head!"

As if he had foreseen it, the Cursed Arm Hassan stepped forward calmly and said: "Hassan of the Cursed Arm is willing to accept punishment!"

Suddenly, this scene left the crowd confused. Bedivere exclaimed in surprise: "Why do you suddenly want the Cursed Arm Hassan's head?!!"

Unfazed by his shock, King Hassan calmly said: "When the Hassan becomes corrupt, falls, or deviates from the path, I will appear before him."

"This era's Hassan seeking my help is equivalent to declaring that he is not qualified to become the Hassan."

Bedivere looked at the Cursed Arm Hassan incredulously and asked in astonishment: "So, knowing this, you still brought us here?" ]

.....

~Projection of All Worlds~

"Really...! Is this Cursed Arm Hassan truly an assassin? He feels more like a knight than a knight of the Round Table!"

"To get King Hassan to act, directly sacrificing his own life..."

"He is truly an unusual assassin!"

"For the mountain village, the Cursed Arm Hassan doesn't care. If he continues like this, they will be killed by the Lion King sooner or later!"

"But King Hassan's words are completely straightforward and easy to understand! They feel refined..."

[ The Cursed Arm Hassan remained silent, while Fujimaru Ritsuka stood up directly. He looked at King Hassan and said: "If that's the case! I don't need help!"

To sacrifice someone's life to accomplish something is not something we would do, especially since the Cursed Arm Hassan is inherently kind-hearted!

"Cursed Arm Hassan!" King Hassan looked at the silent Cursed Arm Hassan and suddenly raised his voice: "Lift your head! You've already lost face, don't continue to lose composure!"

"Fulfill your duty with these people! After the mission is accomplished! I'll cut off your head!" He then disappeared without a trace.

The group returned outside the Temple once again, but received bad news!

The Western Village was attacked by Enforcement Knights, and even Hassan of Serenity, who was responsible for protecting the village, was taken away! Thus, Arash stayed behind to protect the village, while Hassan of the Cursed Arm led the others to try and rescue the Western Village!

As the sun set, the group infiltrated high above the city walls. Before they took a few steps, a shout rang out from their ears!

"Why are you appearing there?!" A figure dressed in red armor and silver, holding a longsword, stood on the city wall!

Bedivere turned his head and exclaimed in surprise: "Knight Mordred!!" ]

...

~A Certain Magical Index World~

"Knight Mordred!! The legendary Arhut Pendragon's son?!"

Shokuhou Misaki threw away the book in her hand, thinking it was rubbish history, mentioning that he was an illegitimate child. This voice sounded like a good girl...

Mordred's height... How to put it, it's really small!

~Type-Moon World, Throne of Heroes~

"It's Mordred, that rebellious traitor again...!!"

Agravain's heavy voice greeted them first; he had a lot of opinions about the person who killed the king.

"Tsk..."

"Foolish... With such little ability, do you still want to stand before my father?!"

Mordred paid no attention to Agravain's glare, thinking it was just father's approval, and looked at Bedivere opposing her in the video.

"Let's keep watching for now... Maybe Mordred has changed inside!"

Gawain spoke up to mediate.

~Type-Moon World, Fourth Holy Grail War Worldline~

"Mordred...!"

Artoria looked at the figure with a complex expression, realizing that it was due to her failure to notice that led to the final result!

I must obtain the holy grail and change that tragic past!!
