Chapter 116: Big Clash! Fuyuki City (After Einzbern)
Chapter 116 Big conflict! Fuyuki City (after Einzbern) 2nd Racing Grand Prix!
When Emiya Kiritsugu recovered from the dizziness caused by the space transfer, he unexpectedly discovered that beside him, a man in a red suit also woke up with a groan.
The moment their eyes met, they recognized each other's identities.
"Archer's master, Tokiomi Tosaka!"
"Einzbern's Hound, Emiya Kiritsugu!"
Both men were well-trained men. In the next moment, they jumped up from the grass. One took out the gun in his arms, and the other took out the gem in his pocket. They were about to stage a full-scale martial arts fight to the death.
"Uh-huh, you two."
"Oh, let's fight, let's fight..."
"Hey, boring."
"Kiritsugu, you, ugh..."
In the tense scene, the ice melted amidst the murmurs of a group of fun-loving people (except for the idiots) who were watching the fun and not taking it too seriously. Kiritsugu and Tokiomi looked away from each other's wary eyes, and finally found four people surrounding them. Servants, and a Master who is comparable to a Servant...
If there was a real fight, even ten of them wouldn't be enough to die.
In an atmosphere that was so embarrassing that they had to leave the three rooms and one living room, the two men tensed their faces, took back their guns and gems, walked quickly to the servant, and then spoke:
"Saber/Archer, what's going on?"
"Let me explain, everyone." Shuoyue, who had caught the two peepers, stood up and coughed lightly, "Saber, have you agreed to attend the banquet?"
"Since it is a 'battle' without weapons, as the king of a country, I naturally have no reason to refuse." Saber, who was once the king of Britain, nodded, "But before that, I still hope that you can take Illya hand over……"
"Don't worry, I'll tell you now." Shuo Yue snapped her fingers and showed a fox-like smile, "Illya is hiding in Einzbern's castle now."
"What!" Not only Saber, but also Irisviel and Emiya Kiritsugu were shocked. The latter even took out his phone and planned to contact Maiya who was staying at the castle.
However, a knife flew over and inserted into Kiritsugu's cell phone easily.
"I haven't finished speaking yet. Why are you so anxious?" The young man paused and then said, "Didn't you notice that I said 'hide'?"
"...What exactly do you want?" Emiya Kiritsugu's uneasiness became more and more intense.
"It's very simple. Let's have a competition to see who can reach Einzbern Castle first. If we win, I will hand her over to you." Shuo Yue stroked her hands and happily stated his purpose.
At this point, Iskandar also reacted: "Oh! Speaking of which, isn't that the banquet venue we agreed on?"
"Huh?" Saber's eyes widened in disbelief, while Archer, who was watching the show silently, raised his eyebrows and looked at Tokiomi Tohsaka next to him as if he realized something, his eyes flashing with joy.
"Wait, why is it our stronghold?!"
"Well, it was Brother Shuoyue who suggested it. I think it's a good suggestion."
"Shuoyue!"
"Hey, Kiritsugu is definitely looking for a new base anyway, right? What's wrong with using waste? Rider, Archer, will you participate?"
Although kings have their own reserve, how can they not enjoy their second life unscrupulously since it is a second life with all the burdens removed?
Without even thinking, the burly man laughed and responded first:
"A racing competition? Hahahahaha...you actually challenge me as a 'cavalry'! Weber, there's no need to hide, let's come together!"
Gilgamesh, who guessed Shuoyue's thoughts first, even though he wanted to refuse and greeted him with a cold snort, he also agreed:
"I am not ignorant enough yet, let's go, Tokiomi!"
"Huh? Um, okay..."
After hearing these words, Emiya Kiritsugu suddenly realized something. He was used to ups and downs, and his whole body trembled.
Racing, Einzbern, the Winter City, that heavy snow, that forest, that racing race...
Is this your purpose, Shuo Yue!
Sure enough, behind him, Irisviel was already on fire. At this time, she was not fighting to satisfy her own preferences, but to save her daughter!
"Let's go, Kiritsugu, we must win!"
Kiritsugu, danger!
————
"It's finally here, the Fourth Holy Grail War Racing Grand Prix! We have set up a special track on the outskirts of Fuyuki City to broadcast this sonic battle on the ground for you!"
"Due to the principle of mystery and concealment, the commentator and live broadcast of this competition is none other than myself, Shuoyue!"
"Then let's take a look at the situation of the players waiting for the start of the game! After drawing lots, the order of the players has been determined. The first is Rider in position 1 - his car is his Noble Phantasm, a sacrifice to Zeus. The sacrificial vessel, the divine wheel!”
"Is this a modern and popular racing car? My blood is boiling!" Rider's laughter echoed through the sky.
"Can't lose, Flying Hoof Thunder Ox!"
"Moo!" Two sturdy giant bulls snorted in response to the words of the Conqueror King. In the car, Webb, who was carried over by Rider, looked at Thunder running around him in fear.
"Why am I here too!"
"Don't worry, I'm a Rider with a riding level of A+. There's no way I'll lose to the other teams. Enjoy it, Weber!"
"Alas... I can't do anything about you."
"Then there's Archer, the second-ranked one. His vehicle is the shining ship of light that soars in the sky, the throne of the king described in the Ramayana, Vimaya!"
"Huh? You're quite knowledgeable, cook." The Hero King, sitting on the throne, glanced at Shuoyue with satisfaction and declared proudly, "I will not use all the power of Vimaya to try to surpass me, you bastards!"
Tosaka Tokiomi frowned and said nothing. For this slightly old-fashioned orthodox magician, such a ridiculous carnival was really beyond his tolerance.
"Since I have returned to this courtyard, I should enjoy everything in the world. Racing is a good appetizer." Gilgamesh had seen through his thoughts and showed a happy smile on his face, "Tokiomi, don't let me down completely."
"Yes... King."
"Next is number three Saber. Her car is the crystallization of modern technology, a Mercedes-Benz 300SL equipped with a straight-six engine!"
"Ah~" Irisviel, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat, poked her head out and greeted everyone energetically.
"Irisviel, be careful, this racing is not that easy." Saber grasped the steering wheel as if holding the reins, and was ready for battle.
As for Kiritsugu, after failing to escape, he gave up resistance and sat in the back seat specially modified for Illya, looking more nervous than Saber who was in charge of driving.
Although Irisviel reluctantly gave up the driving seat due to his efforts, why did he always feel more threatened...
Letting Saber, who disliked him, become the driver - Emiya Kiritsugu well interpreted the meaning of "the way to remove the 'danger' is to turn it into 'death'".
Have a good journey, Kiritsugu.
Thinking in this way, Sakutsuki retracted his gaze and announced loudly:
"Finally, it is the fourth position Caster group. Her car is the Kawasaki Ninja H2R, a track motorcycle known as a 'ground-hugging aircraft'!"
Bending down, Miyu behind him stretched out his hand and hugged his waist tightly.
"Are you ready, Miyu?"
"Yes, I'm ready, brother." Perhaps affected by the tense and exciting atmosphere, Miyu's face flushed.
For her, this Holy Grail War is full of rare experiences. Even she, who is always calm, can't help but feel a little emotional at this moment.
Putting aside the darkness and conspiracy, just chatting and competing with heroes of different times - this may be the unique side of the Holy Grail War that Sakutsuki wanted his sister to see from the beginning to the end.
At this moment, the young man smiled and leaned down, shouting:
"Okay, the contestants are all in place. Now I announce that the second Fuyuki City (after Einzbern) Grand Prix is about to begin! All contestants are ready-"
The signal light that was projected began to flash, and at a certain moment, it suddenly turned green!
"Start!"
The moment the red light turned green, the four cars roared at the same time and sped towards the same destination together!
You should be able to see what this is about... I won't say it.
