Roy chuckled, hearing Saber's question. "While the Grail isn't an omnipotent wish-granting device, it can still grant some minor wishes."

"Really? I..." Saber's eyes lit up with hope.

"But Saber, don't get your hopes up yet. Even though the Grail can grant some wishes—it might not be able to fulfill yours," Roy said, then turned to Rin, gesturing for her to peel some grapes for him.

Rin sighed but complied.

"Roy-onii-chan, why not?" Sakura asked, confused. She was massaging his legs.

Saber also looked at him questioningly.

"Because of the failed Holy Grail Wars in the past," Roy explained.

"The failed wars?"

"Yes. In the previous wars, the rules weren't clear, and many Servants died tragically. Some of them cursed the Grail with their dying breath."

"So, the Grail is now tainted. If you wish for world peace, it might just kill everyone to achieve that peace. After all, without humans, there would be no conflict," Roy said with a shrug.

He wondered why Kiritsugu desired peace so much. What did world peace have to do with him?

Besides—this world was already peaceful.

Roy concluded that Kiritsugu was simply a busybody.

This world didn't need a savior. The only one who could save themselves was themselves.

If the Holy Grail system didn't exist, the Incineration of Humanity wouldn't have happened.

Rin, Saber, and the others fell silent after hearing his explanation.

They hadn't expected the Grail to be like this, twisting wishes and going against their original intent.

What was the point of such a Grail?

It was better to destroy it.

Saber clenched her fists, feeling frustrated.

If she couldn't find a way to save Britain, would she have to return to that battlefield again?

She was unwilling to accept that fate.

After forming a contract with Alaya and becoming a Servant, her world had been put on pause.

If she broke the contract, she would return to that final battle.

Roy, seeing her expression, understood her thoughts.

"Don't worry, Saber. I know why you became a Heroic Spirit. Although the Grail can't grant your wish, someone else can," he said.

"Who?" Saber asked, her curiosity piqued. She didn't even question how he knew her wish.

"Me—of course. Do you want to restore peace to your country? Do you want endless jewels?" Roy asked, looking at Saber and then at Rin.

Their eyes lit up. Rin, of course, couldn't resist the allure of jewels. Even Ishtar, the "useless goddess," was the same.

They would do anything for jewels, much like a certain shameless shrine maiden.

And Saber, who had become a Heroic Spirit to save her country, was naturally excited by his words.

But they were also skeptical...

Roy seemed powerful, but could he really grant their wishes?

"How can you do that?" Rin questioned.

"You don't believe me?" Roy asked with a smirk.

"Of course not!" Rin crossed her arms defiantly.

"Then allow me to demonstrate," Roy said, getting up from Rin's lap and looking at her with a serious expression. "Do you want a lot of jewels?"...

"Jewels?" Ishtar's eyes sparkled, and she nodded eagerly. "Yes, I do! I'll do anything for jewels!"

Rin's face darkened. "Idiot! Don't say such misleading things!" she scolded.

What did she mean by "anything"? To think that this Servant, who looked exactly like her, would do something shameless... Rin felt like she was going crazy.

"Rin, you shouldn't say that. Although Ishtar is your Servant, she's still an individual. You should treat her with respect," Roy chided, then turned to Ishtar.

"How about switching sides and becoming my Servant? I have plenty of jewels. You can have as many as you want."

"Don't agree to that!" Rin hissed.

How dare he poach her Servant right in front of her?

Although she was often annoyed by Ishtar, she still acknowledged her as a capable Servant.

After all, they had a lot in common, such as their love for jewels....

...

"Hmph! Master is finally getting worried, huh? But I won't betray you," Ishtar declared with a smug grin.

She was secretly pleased that Rin cared so much.

"Well, suit yourself," Roy shrugged.

"Aren't you going to show us what you can do? I'm waiting," Rin said expectantly, hoping to see him fail.

Roy chuckled. "Alright, then allow me to demonstrate."

He focused his magic power, and an oppressive aura filled the living room, plunging it into darkness.

Rin and Ishtar were startled by the sudden display of power.

Roy began chanting.

"To the king who rules the world..."

"With forbidden magic, I forge exquisite jewels..."

"May the people prosper, praising his divine deeds..."

"May his name be etched in history, my magic, transformed into refined jewels..."

"My will, turning all falsehoods into reality..."

This spell was based on one of Tohru's spells, which could make any food incredibly delicious.

Tohru had created this spell specifically to enhance her culinary experience. She was quite skilled in magic.

And Roy, with his Magic Authority—was no slouch in magic either.

He had modified Tohru's spell to create something out of nothing, to conjure jewels from thin air.

As he finished chanting, a jewel materialized on the floor. Then another, and another, and another...

Soon, the entire living room was filled with sparkling jewels of various colors.

Rin and Ishtar were stunned. They couldn't believe Roy had actually conjured so many jewels from thin air.

Ishtar couldn't resist the allure of the glittering jewels. She pounced on the pile, hugging them with a blissful expression.

Rin, although more composed, couldn't help but pick up a jewel and examine it with fascination.@@novelbin@@

Sakura and the others were also surprised, but having witnessed Roy create an entire mansion from nothing, they weren't as excited about the jewels.

Saber, Medea, and Medusa, however, were still amazed. This power was god-like.

"These are real jewels!" Rin exclaimed after examining them.

They were all high-quality jewels. If used for Jewel Magecraft, their power would be immense.

Rin's eyes sparkled like the jewels themselves.

Roy chuckled, seeing her reaction.

He then casually lay down, resting his head on Rin's lap and his feet on Sakura's lap.

"How about I become your sponsor? You can have as many jewels as you want," he offered playfully.

Rin blushed. She was tempted—but her pride prevented her from accepting.

"I'll do it! I'll do it—Give me the jewels, and I'll do anything!" Ishtar suddenly declared.

"No problem. These jewels are yours. From now on, you're my..." Roy trailed off, leaving the suggestive offer hanging in the air.

"My what?" Rin wondered.

Roy, of course, wouldn't explain. The implication was clear.

Ishtar, not caring what he meant, immediately stored the jewels in her Gate of Babylon.

She then approached Roy with a smile.

"Master, what do you want me to do?"

"Master? Hey, Ishtar, I'm your Master!" Rin exclaimed.

"Ah, you're my Master too, but Roy is also my Master now," Ishtar replied nonchalantly.

"That's right! There's no rule against having two Masters, Rin. You're the one who's wrong here,"

Roy chided playfully. He then beckoned Ishtar over.

Ishtar quickly moved closer, squeezing Rin aside.

"...."

Roy pulled Ishtar into his arms and caressed her thigh.

"Not bad, even without stockings..." he commented with a smirk.
