Tribute to the Demon King

It is based on the giant eagle as the prototype, exquisite silver silk handicrafts.

No, it's not just a copy model—

"Wow—!"

There was a sharp hiss like a metal blade scratching glass, and the bird of prey made of silver threads struck Kirei from behind like a bullet.That speed far exceeded Kirei's imagination.

With a mediocre conditioned reflex, Kirei's waist suddenly bent backwards, dodging the attack at the last moment.But the razor-sharp beak grazed the tip of his nose and chopped off a lock of his hair.

After the first blow hit the air, the silver-threaded eagle immediately raised its body and hovered above Kirei's head.

This time, he pounced down with the claws of both feet.The target this time was Kirei's face.

Kirei completely ignored the sharpness of the eagle's claws, creaked his fists, and punched the eagle's abdomen with all his strength.

At this moment, the rapidly descending eagle could no longer change its trajectory, and Kirei's fist hit the eagle's abdomen straight!

But it was beyond Kotomine Kirei's expectation—when the artificial raptor was hit by the fist, it instantly shattered into shapeless silver threads, bypassing his right fist and pounced straight towards his face.

Then, the slender silver thread tightly strangled his eyes, and wrapped around his throat like a creeper.

Kirei's eyes could no longer be opened at this moment, and his hands were tightly clutched around his neck... However, the silver thread that was deeply embedded could not be torn apart with just hands.If it was an ordinary person or an ordinary magician, their necks should have been crushed by the pressure of the silver thread at this moment, and it was completely beyond Irisviel's expectations not to strangle Kirei instantly.

It would be fine if he could directly defeat Irisviel... But at this moment, Kirei was deeply immersed in the hallucinations produced by the barrier of the Einzbern house, and he couldn't even find where Irisviel was.

——It's almost like a sarcasm.Just meeting face to face, the agent Kotomine Kirei fell into the deadlock created by Irisviel!

Chapter 56 On the Importance of Feigning Death

Can't break free, can't catch.

The slender but extremely flexible silver thread, like hair, was wrapped around Kirei's face, deeply embedded in the flesh.

Even if he closed his eyes at the last moment, at most it didn't make Kirei directly blind.Several strands of silver thread were tightly bound on Kirei's eyelids, as long as he tried to open his eyes, the eyeballs would be split in two.

And more silver threads roughly covered his face in a grid shape and wrapped around his neck.Irisviel didn't even need to strangle him to suffocation - just cutting his neck artery was enough to kill Kirei.

Aware of his fate, Kirei clenched his teeth, tightened the muscles of his face and neck, and tried his best to fight against Yinsi.

But even so, blood still oozes from his flesh, dyeing the shining silver thread bright red, dripping down.

I struggled hard, but to no avail.So Kirei immediately realized that the caster was still manipulating the silver thread to continuously pressurize it.

"Your Excellency the Magician!"

Realizing that Kirei was in an extremely urgent situation, Assassin immediately became nervous.

"Don't reveal—"

While tensing the muscles in his neck, Kirei gestured to stop Assassin.

This is the most critical move to stop Archer.Under no circumstances should Assassin be exposed.

Otherwise, if Assassin is sniped by Archer, he will not be able to defeat the Heroic Spirit no matter what...

Closing his eyes tightly, Kirei quickly thought about countermeasures.

What is certain is that he must not wait for the other party to fail.We must get rid of this passive situation as soon as possible.

This is the territory of the Einzbern family, and it is the opponent's home field.

At this moment, I am deeply trapped in the enchantment of illusion, I can't feel the direction of murderous aura at all, my vision is blocked, and my breathing is restricted.If it was just a struggle of perseverance between himself and the opponent, Kirei was confident that he would not lose.

However, you cannot bet all your odds on the enemy's mistakes.

This is Emiya Kiritsugu's wife.Who knows what she went through.

Her threat must be placed at the top of all the enemies that have been defeated——

------

Using the illusion effect of the barrier to hide his murderous aura, and directly manipulating the silver thread to strangle the opponent's neck—this was the tactic Irisviel devised for himself facing Kirei alone.

——Even if you risk your life, stop Kotomine Kirei.

Even though she had overestimated Kotomine Kirei as much as possible, she never thought that he could resist the strengthened metal wire with only the muscles of his neck.But even so, under Irisviel's magic, Kotomine Kirei had no choice but to die.

For Kiritsugu, Kirei must be stopped.

Kiritsugu never regarded himself as a puppet.At that time, what he taught himself who didn't understand anything was definitely not the way of living as a doll used as a consumable item.

Crying, laughter, joy, anger... Celebrating life with human emotions, "living" as a human being.This is what Kiritsugu taught Irisviel.

Irisviel has long since realized that she can use her magic as a means of killing people. This is something she learned from her husband who has been on the battlefield all her life-if she wants to "live" with him, one day she will face The test of survival, she will also face the battle.

"Kotomine, Kirei..."

Irisviel muttered the other party's name, and the killing intent gradually arose in her heart.

A look of determination flashed in her eyes, Irisviel suddenly activated all her magic power, continuously strengthening and tightening the silver thread.

The outcome is a contest of perseverance in seconds—although I gritted my teeth because of the pain in the magic circuit, Irisviel still encouraged herself like this.
