Chapter 70 The Battle Between the Magician and the Magician Killer ([-])
The magic "inherent time control" used by Emiya Kiritsugu is of course not as simple as "some experience in magic" as Kenneth said. It is an advanced magic with complex formulas and high difficulty in use.

The Emiya family, from whom Kiritsugu was born, have been pursuing the research on time manipulation magic for generations, and Kiritsugu has been passed down to the fifth generation.

The time magic of the Emiya family is a technique designed on the premise of performing great magic. It separates the inner side of a specific space from the "time flow" of the outside world, and the "time manipulation" that can be manipulated at will belongs to the inherent enchantment. kind of.

Inherent enchantment, the enchantment magic that erodes the real world with the "mindscape" of the practitioner, is known as the "magic" closest to "magic", and has been included in the list of forbidden spells by the Magic Association.

Once the inherent enchantment is activated, the surrounding space will change into a completely different scenery, which is equivalent to creating a closed different world independently in the world.

Except for the naturally extended elves, the other worlds created by other people will be "naturally" eliminated, so maintaining the "inherent enchantment" requires huge energy and cost.For Kiritsugu who needs to make tactical preparations to survive on the battlefield, this kind of magic is not very useful.In order to make the most effective use, he independently created an application method that can use the time manipulation technique on a very small scale and with higher efficiency.

In order to make it easier to deploy the inherent barrier, Kiritsugu set the range of the barrier within his body.Because conceptually, it is the least difficult to separate the innate physical body from the outside world, and the interference from the world is also the least.In just a few seconds of "adjustment" in this smallest barrier, Kiritsugu's unique magic "Inherent Time Control".

When dodging Kenneth's attack, Kiritsugu doubled the time required for blood flow in his body, hemoglobin burning, muscle tissue movement, etc., thereby displaying physical skills far superior to ordinary people.

However, as Kenneth said, this magic has a disadvantage-it will bring a huge burden to the caster's body.

The magic of adjusting time will inevitably cause errors in the flow of time inside and outside the enchantment.After the enchantment is lifted, a natural force will occur to make up for this fault, which is the "revision of the world".This repairing power will be applied to the "altered side", Kiritsugu's barrier, that is, the body itself will be squeezed and twisted to match the original flow of time.

The burden of the body will make the heart beat faster, the blood flow faster, and the breathing become more rapid, making it more difficult to escape the tracking of the moon spirit marrow fluid.Therefore, in Kenneth's view, the enemy's actions are nothing more than a dying struggle, which cannot change the fact that he is doomed.

Therefore, he was not in a hurry to pursue, but just maintained the unhurried pace that a nobleman should have, walking in the corridor of the castle along the direction indicated by the moon spirit marrow fluid.

Kenneth firmly believed that the enemy could not escape his palm, and he would be able to crush the mouse to death in a short time.

The reunion with the "rat" came much earlier than Kenneth expected.

At the corner of the corridor, just as Kenneth was turning, Emiya Kiritsugu jumped out from behind the pillar, and the M950 micro-charger in his hand quickly fired.

At this time, the distance between Emiya Kiritsugu and Kenneth was no more than 1.5 meters!
Emiya Kiritsugu escaped the automatic hunting of the Moon Spirit Essence, successfully lurked under Kenneth's nose, and launched a surprise attack on him.

Only Yustissa, who had the perspective of God, saw the whole process clearly.

After Emiya Kiritsugu escaped from the conference room, Tsuki Lingjiu once again opened his net to search for the enemy.But Emiya Kiritsugu, who has seen the search for enemy net once, has already analyzed the detection mode and found a way to crack it.

Since the moon spirit marrow liquid captures the vibration of the air and the change of heat, it lowers the body temperature and slows down the heartbeat.

Emiya Kiritsugu's "Inherent Time Control" can not only speed up the flow of time in the body, but also slow down the flow of time.

"TimealterTriplestagnate (Inherent Timealter Triplestagnate)!"

The flow rate of time in the body becomes one-third of normal, and the corresponding bodily functions also slow down to one-third.

Because of the side effects of "double speed", the rapid heartbeat and shortness of breath quickly became sluggish. Due to the stagnation of metabolism, the body temperature of the whole body also quickly disappeared, cooling down to a level that was not much different from the outside temperature.

The enemy hunting net constructed by Yue Lingsou fluid flowed past Kiritsugu, but nothing was found, which caused Kenneth's cognition error.

Kenneth took it for granted that the corridor was safe, and the enemy fled into the depths of the castle, where the hunting net was temporarily out of reach.

As a result, Kenneth, who was not on guard, was attacked.

Although caught off guard by the sudden attack, the Moon Spirit Essence still showed its abilities very accurately and faithfully.The defensive membrane that opened instantly blocked all the power of the bullet again, and it looked the same as when Kiritsugu shot for the first time.

"Idiot, this is no use to me!"

Kenneth, who was hiding in the defense film, sneered, but he didn't know that the opponent he sneered at not only saw through the automatic tracking, but also saw through the weakness of the automatic defense.

Before the M950's magazine was emptied, Kiritsugu had an extra single-shot pistol in his empty right hand.

Looking at the barrel that was thicker than the M950, Yustisa inexplicably thought of a little story she read while killing time.She can't remember the content of the story very clearly, only a certain sentence at the end of the story left a deep impression on her——

"It's noon!"

Gunshots sounded like thunder.

At the same time, Irisviel, who was retreating into the depths of the forest, became stiff as if struck by lightning.

Of course, she wasn't really hit by lightning, let alone affected by the gunshots. She appeared in such a state because a new enemy broke into the enchantment.

"lady?"

Hisau Maiya, who was guarding Irisviel, stopped and looked at the former in surprise.

"There is a new intruder, right in front of us, we will meet if we continue like this."

"Understood." Maiya nodded calmly, "Then let's go around from the north."

Irisviel didn't answer right away, she was using magic vision to observe the physical characteristics of the intruder.

The dark monastic uniform, oppressive tall figure, short hair, and serious expression are exactly the same as the photos seen during the day.

"It's Kotomine Kirei who came!"

Hisau Maiya's expression changed.

The woman who always had an ice-like expressionless face, making it impossible to see her inner emotions, suddenly showed extremely obvious anxiety and anger.Hidden behind the anxiety and anger is the guard and sense of crisis towards Kotomine Kirei.

While realizing this, Irisviel also saw through Hisu Maiya's heart.

"Miss Maiya, Kiritsugu's order to you is to protect my safety, right?"

"Yes, but—"

"——But what? Only that man, no matter what, you can't let him go to Kiritsugu's side, can you?"

When Irisviel pointed out her thoughts with a wicked smile, Maiya was momentarily speechless.

"Ma'am, you—"

"What a coincidence, we have the same opinion. Kotomine Kirei, this person can be said to be Kiritsugu's biggest threat, the two of us are going to stop him here! Can you, Miss Maiya?"

After a moment of hesitation, Maiya nodded with a strange expression.

"I'm sorry, but please be mentally prepared, madam."

"It's okay, please don't worry about me, as long as you complete the mission, it's not an order from Kiritsugu, but a mission that you feel you need to complete."

"Yes!"

At this moment, Irisviel completely grasped the situation, mastered Hisau Maiya's thoughts, and the two women who cherish Emiya Kiritsugu from the bottom of their hearts reached an agreement.

As the deathmatch approached, Irisviel couldn't help laughing.

Maiya, who was adjusting the gun, glanced at her with a surprised expression. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Irisviel shook her head, "I just think the human heart is really incredible."

(The main palace is the main palace, and the concubine was successfully conquered.)
"Yeah, people's hearts are unbelievable, and so are you. Your current behavior has exceeded the function of my prototype."

Yustissa, who was still in the meeting room, sighed softly.

"Have you become a human yet? Irisviel von Einzbern."
