Reborn as Platycodon, an infinite journey begins from Demon Slayer

Kikyo, who had read the original novel, naturally recognized his identity at a glance, but Lancer was not surprised that the other party could identify his identity and origin.

Lancer: "Yes, I am Diarmuid Odinah!"

Kikyo: "That red gun can block magic power."

"And the one stuck in the ground is the Yellow Rose that is doomed to die."

[The Yellow Rose of Certain Destruction] is a permanent activation type Noble Phantasm that does not require the chanting of its True Name to exert its effect. It is a yellow pistol with a curse that prevents wounds from healing.

Once you are hurt by this dangerous pistol, it will cause irreversible trauma, reducing your physical strength, that is, the upper limit of HP. Even using healing magic or regeneration ability cannot remove the injured state caused by it.

"Next, I'm going to go all out!"

At this moment, a voice came from all around.

"The battle ends here, Lancer, come back!"

This was a voice coming from somewhere unknown. Lancer immediately put away his spear after hearing it. It was obvious that this was the voice of his Master.

"...Understood, Master."

After receiving the Master's words, Lancer sighed a little regretfully, wrapped up the red spear again, then pulled out the pistol that was stuck in the ground, then glanced at Kikyo, turned and left, and Kikyo did not stop him.

As Lancer left, Saber also left holding Irisviel, and everyone within Kikyo's perception range left at the same time.

"It looks like it's starting..."

Kikyo also returned to her residence quickly.

"You're back, Kikyo."

The Snow Girl had already sensed the approach of Kikyo's aura and was waiting at the corridor entrance.

"Well, I'm back, Snow Girl."

"Where's Kiyohime?"

"Preparing dinner in the kitchen."

The two women walked towards the restaurant while talking.

"Sister Kikyo, you're back!"

When Sakura saw Kikyo, her face lit up with joy. She trotted two steps and threw herself into Kikyo's arms.

"I'm back, Sakura."

Kikyo gently touched her little head, then took her little hand and walked towards the restaurant together.

In the restaurant, some of the Rozen Maidens were helping Kiyohime serve the food, while others were setting the tableware.

Qingji walked out of the kitchen and smiled when she saw Kikyo: "Master, it's time to eat."

After everyone had a big meal, Sakura told Kikyo the message she had received.

"Sister Kikyo, I have received a mission to defeat Caster. The reward is an additional Command Spell."

Kikyo: "As expected..."

When Lancer left, the other people who were watching the fight also left at the same time, and Kikyo had some guesses at that time.

Caster, whose real identity is Gilles de Rais, the French Marshal during the Hundred Years' War between England and France. He was an invincible military commander during his lifetime. His purpose of participating in the Holy Grail War was to resurrect and obtain Joan of Arc. He has a sadistic personality and loves killing.

Under the unexpected summons of Uryu Ryunosuke, the two shared similar fears and hobbies of killing, becoming the most evil combination in this Holy Grail War. While preparing for the Holy Grail War on his own, Caster continued to kidnap and kill children.

The two's violation of the rules was discovered by Kotomine Risei, who then used his authority as a supervisor to temporarily modify the rules of the Holy Grail War and recruit other Servants to defeat Caster by offering a reward for adding Command Seals.
