Chapter 64 Command Spell, Shining Again

Emiya Kiritsugu must be nearby.

Kotomine Kirei was so sure.

Even though he had never met the magician killer, and even though his past and the man named "Emiya Kiritsugu" were two parallel lines, the moment he got the information, Kotomine Kirei felt a tremor from the soul.

He was staring at the man, and firmly believed that there was also an abyss buried in the man's heart.

The Holy Grail that could fulfill all wishes, the heroic spirits from ancient times to the present gathered here... These things that were enough to make people's blood boil, in Kotomine Kirei's eyes, were not as important as the existence of "Emiya Kiritsugu".

He had endured a life of emptiness and emptiness for too long.

He could not find the real feeling of happiness, and there was no personal wish. His piety to religion was also to hope that God could answer his inner confusion. However, the more proficient he was in studying the doctrine and the more sophisticated he was in polishing his skills, the more he could not find the right path he really wanted.

He became a priest because of his father's expectations, and he became Assassin's master because of his master's wishes... It's like "Kotomine Kirei" can only use the requests of others as fuel to continue walking in this chaotic world.

If he was born in an era of war, then Kotomine Kirei, who has not dug out his true nature, would definitely become a being like "Siegfried", holding the holy sword Barumk, defeating the evil dragon Fafner in the voice of the people, and becoming a hero who constantly returns people's expectations.

But unfortunately, this is a peaceful era, people's wishes will not be trampled on, and there is no need for someone to advocate justice for them and fight bloody battles.

It is precisely because of this that the hole in Kotomine Kirei's heart will become bigger and bigger. He can't feel happiness, but can feel a different kind of pleasure from the ugliness of others——but the teachings he received since childhood told him that this is not allowed by God.

God, what should I do?

The priest prayed devoutly day after day, and finally——found what he thought was the answer in a person.

Find Emiya Kiritsugu and find the meaning of his existence from him. For Kotomine Kirei, this matter takes precedence over everything else, even himself.

Even Emiya Kiritsugu would not know that the moment he stepped into Fuyuki City, he was caught in a net formed by countless shadow heroes.

That is why Kotomine Kirei appeared here.

Through the legend of Diarmuid, the effect of the curse of the yellow spear has been revealed. Now that the other six servants are all alive, Saber has one hand sealed in the first battle and is likely to be eliminated first. Her situation is already on the edge of a cliff.

Emiya Kiritsugu must be able to see this crisis. It is absolutely the top priority of the Einzbern camp to get rid of Lancer, the source of the curse, as soon as possible.

So Kirei cast a net next to Kayneth's base, waiting for the attacker to come. He thought that the person who appeared must be Emiya Kiritsugu, but it turned out to be someone else, but Kirei was sure of the connection between her and Kiritsugu. The woman he is chasing now is the key person for him to find Kiritsugu.

However, the good situation of catching her alive was ruined by a sudden smoke bomb.

The smoke from the military portable smoke bomb spread rapidly, covering the surroundings. Taking advantage of the gap when Kirei stopped because his vision was blocked, the swift footsteps echoed far away on the concrete floor.

Kirei originally wanted to shoot the black key following the footsteps, but gave up the idea at the last minute.

This was thrown in front of Kirei by someone else to cover the woman's escape... Of course, there was no third person on this floor. In other words, it can only be judged that the smoke bomb was thrown in from outside the building.

If he shot the black key carelessly, not to mention whether the woman was dead or alive, his position would have been exposed.

At that time, if a third person outside the building launched a sniper attack, even Kotomine Kirei would have difficulty surviving under the smoke.

But if it was thrown from the ground to this floor...

Kotomine Kirei walked to the edge of the floor, ignoring the strong wind blowing his robes, and looked down.

The Hyatt Hotel had disappeared, and another building had collapsed inexplicably. There were no buildings of similar height around.

If the grenade was thrown from the ground at this floor, the height difference would be more than 150 meters. Even with a grenade launcher, it would be very difficult to shoot so accurately. If a hand-thrown smoke cannon was used, this joke would not be funny.

But Kirei was an agent who hunted heretics. He had long been accustomed to fighting against unreasonable enemies. This level of weirdness was not worth making a fuss about.

At the moment, the street lights were flickering, and there was a large area of ​​darkness between the lights. The magus who was blocking him was somewhere under this darkness.

As long as this was confirmed, tonight's trip would be worthwhile.

Suddenly, the instinct of the agent who had experienced many battles sounded.

Kotomine Kirei turned over to avoid it, and a red and a blue arc of light brushed against him and cut into pieces the place where he had been standing before.

Before he could stand firm, Kotomine Kirei threw six black keys in the direction of the attacker, three times in a row, taking a total of one second, which was more advanced than the single throw of 0.3 seconds.

The six black keys were divided into three groups, either tracking, restraining, or intercepting, and this was just the beginning. The man in the robe pushed the ground with his left foot at the moment of finishing the attack, not retreating but advancing, to quickly close the distance with the attacker and prepare for his real killing move.

But when he saw the attacker's face clearly, he stopped abruptly. Amidst the creaking sound of his body resisting the force, Kotomine Kirei raised his right hand without hesitation, and three blood-like lines lit up. rise.

"Order it with a command curse!"

At some point, he had disappeared.
