Tribute to the Demon King

The ultimate magic duel between two Servants fighting each other and two Masters fighting each other, this is the usual unfolding of the Holy Grail War in theory.

At this moment, Kenneth's elegance and nobility formed a sharp contrast in Tokiomi's heart with Emiya Kiritsugu and Matou Kariya.

have a look!have a look!This is the real magician -

If he could duel with such a magician, even if he was defeated later, Tohsaka Tokiomi would never have a single complaint, he could only blame himself for being inferior to others, and admit the failure of this Holy Grail War.

At worst, wait another 60 years. If 60 years is not enough, another 60 years will be enough.Sooner or later, the Tohsaka family will surely fulfill the long-cherished wish of the past generations - Tohsaka Tokiomi has such confidence.

"Before that, Tohsaka...you have to arrange a place where Lancer and I can fight."

As if deliberately reminding Tohsaka Tokiomi not to get too complacent, Zhou Yi said seriously: "This is my Master's request, I cannot refuse."

"This……"

"Don't expect too much, Tohsaka."

Zhou Yi completely ignored Tosaka Tokiomi's expression, just took a sip of wine, and said to himself: "If I don't fight Lancer here, I would be considered a kind-hearted Master. If he is not such an excellent and kind magician Teacher, I think you have seen the ruins of the Tohsaka Mansion by now."

"—I'll fight him, Master."

Lancer on the side suddenly spoke up, "You don't need to worry too much. I will stay in good shape and meet the duel tonight."

"...That's all. I'll leave it to you, Lancer."

Up to now, Tokiomi could only sigh deeply, and agreed to Karna's challenge.

Seeing the two Servants disappear into the room as spirits, Tokiomi, who was in a good mood just now, suddenly felt aggrieved.

……Why is this so?

When exactly did you start to fall into passiveness?

Tohsaka Tokiomi fell into deep thought.

Chapter 52 Guardians of Interest

Following Zhou Yi away from Yuanban Mansion, Lancer looked at the heroic spirit in front with curious eyes along the way.

...Never seen such a strange guy.

It's not a weird personality, but a mental abnormality.

Karna had the good fortune to ask the weak about the life and value of the weak in his lonely body.After he became a Heroic Spirit, this experience was sublimated into the vision to see through the opponent's character and attributes.He will not be deceived by verbal excuses and deceit, and he can know the essence of the other party through simple contact.

Compared with "a certain" heroic spirit, he is more like a wish-granting machine in another form.

Spontaneously distorts its own spirit, thus turning it into a monster.It's not like awakening because of suffering and setbacks, but it's like being born with God's revelation, constructing an absolutely unshakable, not self-serving wish out of thin air.

Then, firmly believe in the destiny you have obtained, even if you are smashed to pieces, you must complete it.

It's almost like a saint...or in other words, a natural guardian of human beings.

Not a simple opponent.The strength is unknown, but in terms of rarity, it should be at least SSR level.

"...Lancer, there is no need to defeat the opponent in one go. Just repel, and maintaining the state is the top priority."

At this time, a small voice sounded from Lancer's ear - it was Tohsaka Tokiomi's words.

With Zhou Yi present, there are many things that he cannot tell Lancer.Not only was Tokiomi not wanting to provoke Zhou Yi, who was obviously not a good person, but he was also worried that Zhou Yi's Master had used magic with his senses attuned to him, and analyzed more information from the conversation between him and Lancer.

"Be careful. If the situation is critical, you are allowed to release the Noble Phantasm, but you are not allowed to release the Spear of Light. Now there is only one Servant leaving the field. Rather than obliterating a powerful enemy, it is more important to keep your golden armor. If I judge you If you need to retreat, you will use the command spell to recall, Lancer, remember not to resist."

Through the connection of the contract, Tokiomi's words rang in Karna's ears: "After I fully open the defensive barrier, I will return to the underground workshop and do my best to perform demons for you. The priority now is to have a meeting with Aqibo tonight." Rudd's duel. For this enemy, we should first test. First try out the opponent's real name and Noble Phantasm, and then defeat it in the second battle—”

"No problem, Master."

Karna nodded obediently.

"—a word in advance, Lancer."

As if realizing something, Zhou Yi, who was jumping high in front of him, suddenly said, "Don't hold back for a while, great hero Karna."

"I will, do my best."

Lancer nodded, and seriously responded to Zhou Yi's request - under the premise of meeting the Master's request.

With the strength of the Servant's feet, it only took less than 10 minutes for them to go deep into the forest.The fire had just been extinguished, and martial law had been imposed at this moment. The two ran at full speed for 10 minutes and still did not see a single person.It's just that the forest fire that was triggered by someone who didn't know yesterday can still see some traces.Trees over thirty centimeters in thickness were bent or crushed from the middle.

——This is by no means natural or accidental, but a man-made fire.

The reasons are unknown, the means are unknown, and the intentions are unknown.The only thing that can be known is that the fire in Yuansaka Prefecture seems to have accidentally detonated someone's design in advance.Tokiomi who saw this through Karna's eyes suddenly sounded an alarm in his heart.

...Just watch it for a while, it should be fine.

After hesitating for a moment, Tokiomi temporarily cut off the sensory connection with Lancer, turned around and walked outside.

For this information, you must contact Father Kotomine Risei.

At this moment, Zhou Yi finally found a large enough man-made clearing in the middle of the forest.On one side of the clearing was a charred grove of trees, while the other side was relatively intact.The sun fell straight from above and shone on Zhou Yi.

"It's far enough from here, Lancer."
