Chapter 428: Emiya Kiritsugu's Awakening

On the first day of the Holy Grail War, Aelin and Gilgamesh staged a gorgeous feast for all the Masters participating in the war, except for Assanssin.

All the magicians who saw Aelin and Gilgamesh fighting felt strong pressure.

There is no doubt that both Gilgamesh's King's Treasure and Aelin's abilities similar to King's Treasure are very scary.

In the face of such ability, the number of people is meaningless at all.

Of course, Gilgamesh is more terrifying than Ayrin, who is surrounded by black and red flames.

After all, Gilgamesh was standing at the top, and the Master and Servants who were watching the battle all saw Gilgamesh freeing a Noble Phantasm and launching an attack on Aelin.

The Master and Servants all know what this means.

Gilgamesh can liberate those countless Noble Phantasms!

All the heroes who have become heroic spirits have their own weaknesses.

Especially the scene when they died was also sublimated.

The weapons that kill them can cause multiple or even instant death damage to them.

It can be said that no matter who confronts Gilgamesh, once Gilgamesh uses the Noble Phantasm to restrain himself, they have basically no chance of winning.

However, everyone is a legendary hero. If we don't fight with real swords and guns, no one will feel inferior to others.

Rather, being able to fight against heroes from all eras made them more motivated to fight, and it was impossible for them to give up just because they might be restrained by the opponent's Noble Phantasm.

And Masters will not give up the Holy Grail to others just because they feel that the other party's Servant is powerful.

The Holy Grail War has never been just a personal stage for the Servant, but a battle between the Master and the Servant working together.

Rather, the battle between Aelin and Gilgamesh gave them a better understanding of these two Servants. Now they can consider how to fight if they encounter each other, and use their own strengths to attack the opponent. shortcomings.

…

"Well, am I not dead?"

In a small private clinic, Kuon Maiya opened her eyes. The pain all over her body made her sure that she was still alive.

"Are you awake? Dance fan."

Hearing the movement on the bed, Emiya Kiritsugu, who was smoking outside, quickly threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and turned around to enter the house.

"Sorry, Kiritsugu."

After waking up, Kuon Maiya did not pay attention to her injuries, but apologized to Emiya Kiritsugu.

"I failed the mission you gave me."

"Don't worry about the mission for now, dance fan."

"What you need to do now is have a good rest."

"When Irisviel comes tomorrow, I will ask her to use healing magic to treat your injuries."

Emiya Kiritsugu gently pushed Kuon Maiya onto the bed, who was about to get up, and said to her.

"no!"

However, after hearing what Emiya Kiritsugu said, Kuon Maiya instantly rejected Emiya Kiritsugu's arrangement.

"Kiritsugu, according to your arrangement, Madam is currently appearing as the Master of Saber to hide your existence."

"If Madam meets us, others will definitely know that Saber's Master is you. This would be too dangerous for you."

Having said this, Kuon Mai paused for a moment.

Compared to his own safety and that of Irisviel, Kuon Maiya was more concerned about the safety of Emiya Kiritsugu.

In the world of magicians, Emiya Kiritsugu's reputation is not low.

"Magician Killer" is Emiya Kiritsugu's title in the magician world.

It can be said that once Emiya Kiritsugu's identity is exposed, the other Masters will definitely get rid of Emiya Kiritsugu before deciding the winner.

After all, Emiya Kiritsugu is a magician, but he does not have any dignity as a magician. He does not delve into magic, but uses modern technological weapons to hunt magicians.

Among magicians, Emiya Kiritsugu's reputation was already bad.

Kuon Maiya herself knew that with such a reason, there was no way she could convince Emiya Kiritsugu.

If you want to convince Emiya Kiritsugu, you can only start with his dream.

"Kiritsugu, have you forgotten your wish?"

"The world needs you."

"Only you, Kiritsugu, can bring peace to the world."

"That's why we're here."

"Do you want everything we have done before and the people who sacrificed for this purpose to be in vain, so that we fall short of our achievements?"

When Kuon Maiya said this, Emiya Kiritsugu was shocked.

Yes, in order to successfully obtain the Holy Grail and fulfill his wish for world peace, he has killed so many people over the years that he has lost count.

These people all sacrificed their lives for this purpose.

"Sorry, Maiya..."

"Sorry, Maiya..."

Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes showed a sad expression. He had not shed tears for many years, and now tears were dripping from the corners of his eyes in large drops.

Previously, when he discovered that several floors above the hotel where Kuon Maiya was staying suddenly fell down, Emiya Kiritsugu felt something was wrong and rushed to the scene as quickly as possible.

Emiya Kiritsugu also saw the opening of the hotel.

The extremely smooth cut is like a mirror.

The only ones who can do this are Servants summoned by Masters.

In order not to expose himself, Emiya Kiritsugu waited until Kuon Maiya was carried to the ambulance by others, and used his ability "Inherent Time Control" to bring Kuon Maiya back to this base.

With Kuon Maiya's current injuries, although Emiya Kiritsugu gave her some first aid bandages, Kuon Maiya would definitely not survive without healing magic.

Kuon Maiya refused to let Irisviel come here, and obviously decided to use her life to continue to cover for Emiya Kiritsugu.

"Don't be so sad, Kiritsugu."

"It is the happiest thing for me to die for you."

Kuon Maiya raised her hand and wiped the tears from the corners of Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes.

"Kiritsugu, you have to be careful of the Servant yesterday."

Although she knew that she would not live long, Kuon Maiya did not have the slightest fear, but told Emiya Kiritsugu everything she saw.

"The Master of that Servant is a middle-aged man with white hair. One of his hands seems to be unable to move. He walks with a noticeable sense of unevenness and is lame."

"I had already fired, but at that time I only saw a flash of white light in the scope of the sniper rifle, and the bullet I fired was cut into pieces, and then the hotel began to collapse."

"From where I sniped, it is about 4,620 meters to the Tosaka residence. This means that the Servant with black flames wrapped around his body has a treasure or ability with an attack range of nearly 5,000 meters."

Emiya Kiritsugu hugged Kuon Maiya tightly and listened carefully to the last information Kuon Maiya left for him.

The night deepened. At some point, after a dull gunshot, the lights in the room dimmed.

A few minutes later, Emiya Kiritsugu walked out of the room with an expressionless face, took out a cigarette from his chest and lit it. After taking a deep puff, Emiya Kiritsugu threw the lighter in his hand back.

The flaming lighter circled in the air and flew into the house through the open door.

"Burning, blazing..."

Instantly, a raging fire ignited in the house, and countless sparks danced with the wind in the night, flying into the sky in the shape of a tornado, and finally extinguished in mid-air, turning into ashes and falling down...

...

The sun revealed its true face from the top of the mountains, dispelling the darkness with its own light and spreading it to the world.

Magicians exist with "mystery" as their power.

Only "unknown" can make their power stronger.

The more people know a magic, the more people can use it, then the power of this magic will be diluted, and eventually lose its "mystery" and "power".

Therefore, the magic world has always hidden itself in the darkness under the sun, not exposing itself to the world.

In order to protect the "mystery" of magic, magicians also established the Magicians Association to manage those magicians who wantonly spread magic, and formulated a series of laws.

If you don't want to be targeted by the magicians of the Magic Association, you must never use magic in public during the day.

Once seen by someone, you must kill the opponent to ensure that the "mystery" of magic will not be leaked.

In the fifth Holy Grail War, Shirou Emiya was ordered by the Lancer Master to pierce his heart because he saw the Servant fighting.

If it weren't for the fact that Rin Tohsaka, who arrived later, used gem magic to repair her heart, there would probably be no Heroic Spirit Emiya later.

Therefore, magicians fight only in the dark.

During the day, it is the world of ordinary people.

At the same time, the day is also the battle for the people of the Magic Association to deal with the impact of the night battle.

Whether it is a building in disrepair, a gas explosion, a series of car accidents, or even a terrorist attack, as long as ordinary people do not attribute these destructions to magic and can explain the damaged areas clearly, everything will be fine.

A plane landed in Fuyuki City, and Saber, dressed in a black suit, and the pure white elf Irisviel got off the plane.

Here, Saber also contributed something that made everyone laugh: putting a bridle on the plane, and then you can control the plane.

This sentence made Irisviel laugh.

However, this was because Irisviel was limited by her own knowledge.

Saber has a B-level riding ability, and she can control any mount except for magical beasts and mythical beasts.

Although the plane is a technological creation, it is also a "mount".

As long as Saber wants, she can indeed use the reins to control the plane to fly.

Berserker Lancelot has done this.

However, at that time, Lancelot was not driving a passenger plane, but a fighter plane.

Moreover, with the ability of riding and "Knights do not die with bare hands", Lancelot also had a chase battle with the hero king Gilgamesh with a fighter plane, injuring the hero king Gilgamesh.

This day, Saber accompanied Irisviel and acted as Irisviel's "prince".

Because the hotel next door was beheaded, Kenneth and his fiancée dared not stay in a high-rise hotel anymore, so they found a new manor during the day.

And it was on this day that Kenneth's fiancée Sora saw the appearance of Kenneth's Servant Diarmuid Odina, and was fascinated by the teardrop mole at the corner of Diarmuid Odina's eyes.

Kotomine Kirei, according to the rules of the Holy Grail War, Masters who lost their Servant can seek refuge in the church, so he swaggered into the church under the gaze of other magicians.

Uzumura Ryunosuke was wandering outside the gate of an elementary school, looking for new targets to kill.

Tōsaka Tokiomi did not make any movement and continued to stay in the Tōsaka residence.

However, the battle between Aylin and the King of Heroes Gilgamesh last night made Tōsaka Tokiomi feel that it was not particularly safe for him to have only Gilgamesh as a Servant in this Holy Grail War.

Now he just had to wait for his disciple Kotomine Kirei to find the Master of the Berserker, and then send Assassin to kill the magician, and he would be invincible.

Waver and the King of Conquerors Iskandar were shopping on the street.

The tall stature of the King of Conquerors, as well as Waver's expression and physique like a little submissive, made many people on the street look at them strangely.

This made Waver even more uncomfortable, hiding his body behind the King of Conquerors and complaining to the King of Conquerors.

But these complaints of Waver were of no importance to the King of Conquerors.

As a king, he would listen to the suggestions of his subjects, but it was his freedom to adopt them or not.

After only a few hours, Kiritsugu Emiya's beard had grown a lot longer, giving people a feeling that he was much more decadent and sloppy than before.

Unlike other masters, Kiritsugu Emiya now flipped through various information sent by the Einzbern family in the house.

Soon, Kiritsugu Emiya set his eyes on two photos.

One of the two photos was of Matou Kariya, who had just returned to Fuyuki City a year ago.

Black hair, a clear smile, although a little gloomy, but it can still be seen that this is a sunny young man.

The second photo shows a head full of white hair, a slightly hunched body, obvious disabilities in the left hand and right foot, and a gray eye that seems to have lost its sight.

Although it is hard to believe that a sunny young man has become like this in just one year, Kiritsugu Emiya used the surveillance camera to take photos of Matou Kariya and compared them with all the magicians who might participate in the Fourth Holy Grail War, and finally came to a conclusion.

These two people who look completely different are actually the same person.

This guy is also the Master of the Berserker that Kuon Maiya told him to be careful of.

"Matou Kariya..."

Emiya Kiritsugu murmured, and before he knew it, the two photos in his hand were all crumpled into a ball.

"Maiya..."

After taking a deep breath, Emiya Kiritsugu lit a cigarette.

Emotionally, although Emiya Kiritsugu wanted to kill Matou Kariya and the Berserker very much.

However, through the investigation of the Servant who appeared yesterday, Emiya Kiritsugu also knew the true identity of Archer.

That is the most ancient king of mankind, Gilgamesh!

According to legend, this king has all the treasures in the world.

And the strength of this king is undoubtedly at the top of all Heroic Spirits.

At present, Emiya Kiritsugu does not think that Saber has the ability to fight the most ancient king.

In order to delay or even kill the most ancient king, the power of Berserker is indispensable. (End of this chapter)
