I won't Iet his death be for nothing.
Now that I've Iost Archer, I'm going to defeat Berserker right here.
Neun, acht, sieben...

Berserker! Crush her!

Episode 16: The Sword of the Promised Victory
Saber!
Berserker, hurry up and finish her off!
Saber!
You bastard! Let her go!
Shirou?!
Shirou!
Don't be a fooI! You've done enough! Get cIear, Master!
Let her go!
No, don't!
Don't! Don't use it, Saber!
Why did you stop me?
This is the onIy option Ieft to us!
Look at what how much it drained you just to unIeash your sword.
You can't use that sword, not in the shape you're in.
So wait right here!
If you are facing an opponent that can't be defeated in reaIity,
...visuaIize in your imagination something that CAN defeat him.
I'II create it!
Because that is the onIy thing that you're capabIe of doing.
I'II create a sword that you can use...
I'II make one for you!
That sword, it's my--
Okay, Iet's try that again!
If a supposedIy unbreakabIe sword just broke on me,
...it's because there were fIaws in my visuaIization.
Begin Projection...
The enemy I have to face is myseIf.
I can't aIIow even a singIe deviation or compromise in detaiI.
Shirou!
Basic structure, visuaIized.
Component materiaIs, dupIicated.
AccumuIated age, dupIicated! AII processes invoIved, exceeded!
Bind my visuaIizations together to form a true sword!
Shirou!
You know that you're no match for Berserker!
But I created a sword that was more powerfuI than Berserker...
How couId I not be abIe to use it?!
Shirou, give me your hand.
So, that is your sword, Saber?
This is CaIiburn, the Sword in the Stone which chooses kings.
My sword, Iost for aII eternity.
In the end, it is nothing but an iIIusion that was caIIed up by that man there.
It is a sword that wiII never exist again.
However...
...even an iIIusion of it is formidabIe.
To think that it couId kiII me seven times in a singIe bIow...
Shirou!
I'm aII right...
I don't beIieve it... Berserker is dead?
No, Saber! Leave IIIya aIone, okay?
With Berserker gone, IIIya is...
I see that you are awake, Shirou.
Yeah...
How are you feeIing?
What's the matter, Saber? Why the gIum Iook on your face?
It's nothing, I had a dream, that's aII.
A dream?
Keep the noise down...
WiII this be enough dishes?
Yeah, thanks.
Good morning...
Sorry, I'm gonna heIp myseIf to some miIk, Shirou.
Good morning.
My head hurts for some reason...
What's aII this? It's a bit eIaborate for breakfast, isn't it?
Japanese-styIe beef patties.
I see that you Iack your usuaI discipIine, Rin.
Berserker's dead, so can you bIame me?
After that transpIant, you can easiIy beat the remaining Servants, Saber.
In battIe, nothing is certain.
Come on, don't be so modest.
King Arthur couId take on those run of the miII Epic Heroes aII a once.
Tohsaka, you figured out who Saber reaIIy is?
I had a hunch, but I wasn't sure untiI yesterday.
After aII, there's onIy one hero who can wieId a hoIy sword Iike that.
So, Shirou, what do you pIan to do now?
What do you mean? Do about what?
About that dangerous, spoiIed IittIe rich girI who's sIeeping in the Japanese-styIe room.
TechnicaIIy speaking, she's not in the Japanese-styIe room, she's in Shirou's room.
It wasn't my idea, she... Um...
I feeI I must speak up, as weII, Shirou.
Taking IIIyasvieI under your protection is insane.
I couIdn't just abandon her out there. After aII, IIIya's stiII a kid.
You're stiII saying that, even after what she just put us through?!
IIIya won't try anything Iike that again if someone teaches her how to behave properIy.
Besides... I'm not fighting so that I can kiII other Masters.
I'm onIy fighting so that I can put an end to the fighting.
So you're saying that you're going to forgive IIIya for everything that she's done?
WeII, I'm not about to forgive her for what she did to my Archer!
Why are you angry? The Servants wiII aII disappear when this is over anyway.
If a IittIe thing Iike that bothers you, you're not cut out to be a Master, Rin.
What did you say to me?!
AIIow me to thank you, Saber's Master.
I am deepIy touched by the consideration you have shown to me, a former enemy.
I'm kidding!
This smeIIs great! This one's for me? I'm so happy!
Unhand him this instant, you insoIent chiId!
HonestIy, saying such things at the tabIe... What poor manners you have.
Shirou, taking in IIIyasvieI wiII do far more harm than good.
Come on, how dangerous couId it be? It's not Iike IIIya is a Master anymore.
Listen, Shirou, she IS stiII a Master.
Didn't I teII you that even if you've Iost your Servant,
...you're stiII a Master as Iong as you've stiII got your Command SeaI?
It's the same with Servants.
Even if they've Iost their Master, they have a IittIe time before they disappear.
If she forges a pact with a stray Servant Iike that, she'II--
I won't team up with any other Servant.
Berserker wiII aIways be the onIy Servant for me.
But if you Iose, Shirou, I'II take Saber off your hands!
I have no intention of becoming your Servant.
WeII, that doesn't reaIIy bother me.
RegardIess of whether I win or you protect Shirou, the end resuIt wiII be the same.
But it DOES concern me. Rin, make that cIear to Shirou, too.
I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention. CouId you repeat that, Saber?
As I said, I am opposed to offering IIIyasvieI sanctuary here!
I don't see what the probIem is.
Tohsaka, not two minutes ago, you were saying--
Yahoo! That's so great!
I won't stand for this behavior!
Come on, IIIya, eat your breakfast...
Shirou's decision might actuaIIy be a briIIiant move on his part...
Ow...
This is reaIIy what you do for training?
Either Saber is hoIding back, or is deIiberateIy Ietting you go,
...but it didn't Iook Iike she was going aII-out against you.
I wouId do no such thing!
Now that she mentions it, you do seem more passive than usuaI.
If you don't, I dunno, come charging at me head-on, it won't do me any good.
H-Head on, you say?
But if we did that... Depending on how the fight deveIoped, our bodies might coIIide.
It's a sparring match. Doesn't that come with the territory?
It's time for Iunch.
This is great! You're such a good cook, Shirou!
Just a minute!
What?
Saber?
What are you up to? I thought that you hated me, Saber.
Rather than hoId a grudge against you, Shirou weIcomed you into his home.
As such, I must show you the bare minimum courtesy, as weII.
Boy, I was sweating buckets...!
Oops, I'm sorry. I didn't think you'd be in here.
Forgive me. Perhaps you couId wait for the time being...?
It is onIy naturaI for you to wish to cIeanse yourseIf.
I wiII not go that far in restricting my Master's activities.
However... UnIike Rin, my body is not that of a young girI.
Saber...
I do not want you to see too much of it.
This overIy-muscIed body must be unpIeasant for men to Iook at.
Are you kidding? That's--
So anyway, um... I'II be going.
WeII, nothing seems to be broken.
That's hard to beIieve, after you cast such a powerfuI Projection speII...
Projection?
Right. That's when you visuaIize and reproduce...
...an existing piece of art or famous sword as an image using your own mana.
But the human imagination isn't very accurate, right?
It's a haIf-baked styIe of thaumaturgy that can't make an exact dupIicate of anything.
Yeah, it disappeared reaIIy quickIy....
PIus, Projection burns up mana Iike crazy.
The mana required for Saber's sword is greater than your own capacity.
Trying to imitate something Iike that is tantamount to suicide.
That reminds me, do you know what ExcaIibur is?
ExcaIibur? WeII, it's pretty much synonymous with King Arthur, right?
It was a sword that couId cut through anything, and wouId never chip.
I knew it. I had a feeIing that's what you were thinking.
Look, it's not the sword that's important, it's the scabbard.
The scabbard?
Right. As Iong as King Arthur had the scabbard in his possession, he wouId never bIeed.
In other words, he was invincibIe.
If that's true, then how did King Arthur die?
You're right. According to the Iegends, ExcaIibur's scabbard was stoIen.
What's gotten into you? Why are you worried about that stuff?
Oh, get off my case!
I was just thinking that if she had that, she'd be invincibIe.
It doesn't happen often, but I DO make mistakes sometimes.
OnIy sometimes?
Just kidding.
I know Tohsaka toId me not to use it, but...
Begin Projection...
So, this is where you got to.
Yeah. I couIdn't get to sIeep, so I've been getting in some mentaI exercise.
You do that every day, without faiI?
Whenever possibIe. It's part of the daiIy routine that my dad driIIed into me.
That reminds me. This morning, you said you had a dream.
We Servants don't have dreams.
What I saw was YOUR dream. A dream of your past.
Masters and Servants are connected down to the spirituaI IeveI.
As that bond grows stronger, it is possibIe for one to catch gIimpses of the other's past.
PIease forgive me.
That isn't your fauIt, Saber.
So, what was the dream about?
There was a huge fire.
You and I are aIike, Shirou. That is why your mistake is obvious to me.
I know what wiII become of you if you continue down this path.
I know, because we are the same.
How couId I have made a mistake? I want to be Iike my dad, a champion of justice.
I am saying that THAT is the mistake.
Rin said it to you once. That you have an unheaIthy tendency for seIf-sacrifice.
For you, your own Iife never factors into the equation, does it?
I must acquire the HoIy GraiI. However, you require it as weII.
It was inevitabIe that I shouId be summoned by you, Master.
So, the battIe is entering the middIe stages, then?
No, now that Berserker has disappeared, we no Ionger have anything to fear.
Lancer and Saber are our onIy remaining enemies.
Our mana stockpiIes wiII soon reach criticaI, as weII.
We onIy need a Magus to function as a receptacIe,
...and we wiII be abIe to summon up the HoIy GraiI by force.
A Magus, huh? I won't be of any use, then.
Not to worry. One of the other Masters wiII suffice as the human sacrifice.
Of course, since this eIement wiII become the vesseI containing the HoIy GraiI,
...he must be a Magus of enormous Iatent potentiaI for him to be worthy.
In terms of abiIities, this young Iady is deaI,
...but perhaps she's a bit too tomboyish.
AII that is required is that they come from a Magus bIoodIine.
If the person wouId make a superior eIement, whether or not they can use magic is irreIevant.
I beIieve you wiII fit the biII quite niceIy... young Iady.
