The Second Dimension of the Hero

"Forget it, Joan of Arc's holy relic will be stored for the time being." The night finally made a decision, and smiled deliberately to reassure Irisviel, "Don't worry, I have my own means to summon my name. Servant."

However, the reason why Joan of Arc was not summoned was vaguely due to being overwhelmed overnight, because I didn't know why Joan of Arc signed a contract with the restraining force, and became a heroic spirit like Saber on the verge of death. .If she were to meet Letizia, who had signed a contract with a huge obsession and restraint and became a Heroic Spirit without preparation, it would have been an extremely embarrassing scene.

--------------------------------------------------

Three men are now sitting in a social conversation room in a beautiful villa built on a scenic hill in Minami Tono, Italy.Kotomine Kirei and Tohsaka Tokiomi, the other was the priest Kotomine Risei who had introduced the two to meet and presided over the meeting, ---- Kirei's biological father.

In the villa under the name of the Tohsaka family, the three discussed some matters related to the Holy Grail War.This is a matter between mages, but it is not surprising that the members of the 'Holy Church' such as Kotomine Risei and Kotomine Kirei are involved, because they have been involved in it for generations and need to maintain a balance.

The sanctuary church to which Kirei and the others belonged was responsible for branding miracles and mysteries other than doctrine as heresy, and banishing them and burying them in darkness.In other words, it is from the standpoint of banning blasphemous acts such as magic.

The magicians colluded with each other and organized a self-defense group calling themselves the 'Magic Association' - the Clock Tower, to contend with the threat of the Church of the Holy Church.Now the two sides have reached an agreement and obtained a temporary peace.

----Nevertheless, it is unlikely that the priests and magicians of the Holy Church would gather together for a meeting.However, although the Tohsaka family is a magician, they have had a deep relationship with the church from a very early time, so now it is considered a bastard looking at mung bean and meeting his eyes.

Holy Grail War.

It was continued 200 years ago, and it revolved around the battle between the three magic families of Einzbern, Tohsaka, and Machiri (Matou) to jointly create the "universal cauldron" that can realize all wishes in the world. The rule is that seven magicians selected by the "Holy Grail" become Masters, and summon heroic spirits called "Servants" that have appeared in various eras to fight to the death.

The final winner will get the 'universal wishing machine', the Holy Grail.

This kind of war has been carried out three times so far, and three years later, the fourth Holy Grail competition will be ushered in.

Seven Masters will appear one after another, and they are all lucky ones chosen by the Holy Grail. The blood-colored incantations on Tosaka Tokiomi and Kotomine Kirei’s hands are the signs of being chosen, and they are destined to become the Masters of the next Holy Grail War. one.

However, as a priest, Kotomine Kirei was special. It stands to reason that the Holy Grail would only select a suitable magician as a Master, but Kotomine Kirei was selected by the Holy Grail as a priest.

-----It was Kotomine Kirei's job to fight to the death with mages.But the paradox of the question is the Holy Grail battle between mages, why did Kirei, a cleric, be chosen as a magus to participate in this battle.Perhaps, the choice of the 'Holy Grail' is also full of malice!

The Holy Church has a special status in the 'Holy Grail War'. It does not directly participate in the war, but presides over it as a supervisor. The main purpose is to prevent people with ulterior motives from getting the 'Omnipotent Cauldron' and use it to disrupt The human order, and even the destruction of the world, in other words, the role of the church is to guide the 'right' people to the Holy Grail.

Koujimine was the supervisor of the last Holy Grail War.

This time he was dispatched by the church to preside over the Fourth Holy Grail War and exercise the right to supervise the Church of the Holy Grail.

"Achieving the root. Our Tohsaka family has only one wish, and this wish, only the Holy Grail can help me achieve it. ----, but unfortunately, Einzbern and Matou, who originally had the same aspiration as us The family has gradually lost its original path in the process of passing it down from generation to generation, and now has completely forgotten its original aspirations. It is better not to talk about the four Masters who were recruited and selected from outside. For what kind of shallow desire, hope To chase after the Holy Grail is simply conceivable."

Tohsaka Tokiomi said calmly.Using the Holy Grail to fulfill one's own wishes is called 'using the shallow yuwang to touch the Holy Grail', and using the Holy Grail to help oneself lead to the root of the magician is not called satisfying one's own yuwang, but called exploration and discovery, ----- How can things between magicians be called blind obedience to filthy desires and desires?But obviously, Tohsaka Tokiomi's purpose is actually the same as "stealing books is not stealing", in the final analysis, it is to satisfy his own desires and desires leading to "the calamity of the root cause".

However, this reason is good enough to decorate himself. Although the essence is the same, Tosaka Tokiomi thinks that if he has obtained the Holy Grail, there will be a better way to use it.The Holy Church, represented by Rishimoto, also hopes to control the person who obtains the Holy Grail within the scope of his own approval.

----------------------------------------------

(Well, the reason for not summoning Joan of Arc for the time being is because the Holy Light wants to summon another Servant, so Joan of Arc needs to give a reason to appear later.)

048, you don't know the magician

(Hero Junyang, 384075182, it’s okay to join in for irrigation, chatting about lol, 300, Two-dimensional is also excellent.)

Tohsaka Tokiomi, a magician, and Kotomine Kirei, a priest, have one thing in common—that is, Tosaka Tokiomi and Kotomine Kirei, the two magicians and priests who met for the first time. The backs of their hands are engraved with blood-red incantations, which are 'abstract' engravings made up of three 'stigmata', which appeared on the backs of their hands. It was the meaning it represented not long ago. It will be a harbinger of a 'brutal' battle for the Holy Grail that is about to begin again.

"Then I just need to help Tosaka Tokiomi-sama achieve victory and participate in the next Holy Grail War, right?" Kotomine Kirei finally came to this conclusion.

Father Kotomine Risei and Tohsaka Tokiomi are old friends, and Tohsaka Tokiomi also explained that obtaining the Holy Grail is to achieve the root of magician, which does not contradict the purpose of the Church of Sanctuary, so Kotomine Kirei is very It soon became clear why he was brought here.

"That's it." At this time, Tosaka Tokiomi's mouth showed a slight smile.As a result of the alliance, the uncertain situation of 1 to 6 turned into a definite situation of 2 to 5, which was naturally enough to make Tohsaka Tokiomi happy. "Of course, on the surface we should still be enemies, but in the dark we are assisted by you, and we will work together to solve the remaining five Masters. For this reason, Kirei, you will be sent from the church to the Magic Association and become me. disciple under the sect."

"That's right, the official document has already come down." Father Rizheng said this and handed over an official document.It was jointly signed by the Church of the Holy Church and the Magic Association, and it was written with a notification document received by Kotomine Kirei.The efficiency of doing things is so high, it has only been two days, and things have already progressed to this level.

Hearing the arrangements that Tohsaka Tokiomi and his father had made, Kotomine Kirei was indifferent, and there was no change in the expression on his stiff face.Therefore, Kotomine Kirei's life was meaningless.

"For the next three years, Kirei, you will live in my home in Japan to practice magic, and strive to become a qualified magician who can control Servants before the Holy Grail War begins. I will inform you about the specific arrangements when you go to Japan. Then , any questions?"

"But doesn't it matter? -- If I openly become your disciple, won't others suspect that we are secretly cooperating in the future fight?"

Tokiomi smiled coldly and shook his head. "--You still don't know about magicians. It is commonplace in our world that magicians and their apprentices kill each other for the sake of conflict of interest."

"Oh, so it is." Although Kirei didn't think he knew magicians, he still had a certain understanding of the general character of a magician.However, Kotomine Kirei's three views could not be called normal in the first place, so he didn't find it strange to see such an unethical and intriguing behavior.

Besides, Kotomine Kirei had no interest in fighting and assisting.

But there was only one thing he really wanted to figure out. ---Because he doesn't know it himself.

"You said that the choice of 'Master' depends on the meaning of the Holy Grail. What is going on here?"

"It's very simple, the Holy Grail will give priority to those who urgently need it. Of course, there are exceptions. If the deadline is approaching and seven Masters have not been gathered, there will be unconventional people. So, Kirei, you still don't understand why you are will be selected."

Tohsaka Tokiomi, a senior magician, immediately saw through Kotomine Kirei's intentions.

"Since the Holy Grail has chosen you, there must be a reason for it. You don't have to rush to find out. Kirei, when the Holy Grail War officially begins, perhaps you will understand what you desire."

"I see." Kotomine Kirei nodded and fell silent. Apart from his own doubts, he was not interested in other things.

"Okay, then Kirei, go down first, I'll discuss something with Tohsaka."

When the old priest Kotomine Ri was speaking, Kirei bowed slightly, turned and left the hall.

The remaining priests Tosaka Tokiomi and Risei looked out the window without saying a word to each other, and watched Kotomine Kirei's back as he walked out the door.

"Your son is really trustworthy, Kotomine."

"There is no doubt about his ability as an agent. Among my colleagues, there are not many people who practice as hard as him. I even feel a little terrified when I look at it. ---Aiya, I'm really ashamed to say it, this old man is also There is only one child who can be proud."

The old priest had always been known for his sternness, and he seemed to trust Tokiomi very much, showing a full smile without concealing it.From the corner of his eyes, he could clearly see the trust and love for his only son. "After 50 years old, I still have no children. When I originally planned to give up my successor, I really didn't expect that God would give me such a good son."

"But I didn't expect him to agree so easily."

Tokiomi couldn't help but sigh with emotion. The impression he got from Father Risei's son was somewhat different from the so-called passion for faith.The calm movement of this man, Kirei, instead made people feel a kind of emptiness.

To be honest, it really makes me feel a little disappointed.In Kotomine Kirei's view, things like the Holy Grail War were actually no different from being involved in an unrelated struggle.

"However, participating in the Holy Grail War would be a form of redemption for him." Father Rizheng said with a hint of melancholy after slurring it in his words. "I have never told anyone about this before. The child just lost his wife. And he is a newlywed wife who has just been married for two years. With the guilt of the child's mother, he may not know how to deal with his newborn daughter. ."

"Oh, that's true." Tokiomi didn't know how to answer when he heard this unexpected thing, but he naturally had no right to accuse Kotomine Kirei's actions, because, as a magician, he showed the slightest indifference towards blood relatives. No less than Kotomine Kirei.

049, peerless sword girl, Fiona

(Hero Junyang, 384075182, it’s okay to join in for irrigation, chatting about lol, 300, Two-dimensional is also excellent.)

A year before the Holy Grail War began.

The Master selected by the Holy Grail, the Master with the Stigmata Command Spell, has almost been selected.

Whether it was the participants of the three royal families, the Einzbern family, the Matou family, and the Tohsaka family, who were confirmed early on, or the other Masters who were chosen by the Holy Grail of Heaven and had strong aspirations.

Seized the 'holy relic' that the Einzbern family had prepared originally, and killed the magician of the Einzbern family to escape the shame of the magician, ---- for his own 'the way of justice' , Emiya Kiritsugu who will carry out the sacrifice no matter how great it is.

In order to prove his magic ability, he stole the 'holy relic' of his lecturer, Director Kenneth Ken, and learned about the existence and operation mechanism of the Holy Grail War by consulting some secret magic in the 'clock tower'. , secretly went to Fuyuki City.

The genius magician of the clock tower, even if it is a rich and rich, er----, rich (but not 'handsome') magician for his own vanity resume, Director Kenneth Ken won another After the holy relic, he also joined the battle for the Holy Grail War in an orderly manner.

I didn't even realize that the murderer who possessed the magic talent left by his ancestors, Yusheng Ryunosuke, was full of malice for this murderer's desire to seek more fancy killing methods and tricks. The 'Holy Grail' of Heaven also generously gave birth to the 'Command Spell'.

Also, it has no fighting meaning in itself, but Kotomine Kirei, the church representative who provided support to Tokiomi Tohsaka. ----Perhaps, Kotomine Kirei will discover his own meaning in the Holy Grail War and pursue something that can make him feel 'pleasant' and moved.

In this way, there seem to be eight Masters who joined the Fourth Holy Grail War, one more than usual.

As an out-of-spec Heroic Spirit, the Command Spells generated by Irisviel are not so much a means of commanding Servants given by the Holy Grail War system, but rather given overnight.As an out-of-spec Servant, that's all he wants to be like a player participating in the Holy Grail War.

----------------------------------------------

In general, the holy relics prepared for the 7-night battle of the Holy Grail War, and the summoning of the Heroic Spirit Servants will start several months in advance.

In any case, the early battle between the Master and the Servant, as well as the tacit understanding, consciousness, etc., need to be prepared in advance. ----Even if he is a summoner (summoner) overnight, it is the same with the legend (hero) he wants to summon.

In the frozen city of Einzbern, he glanced at random overnight, and Quan Dang was checking the completion of the magic circle depicted on the floor of the chapel.

"Does it matter even if it's such a simple ceremony?" In the eyes of Irisviel, who has been guarding by her side, the preparations seemed a little too simple and unexpected.

"It looks very simple? Summoning Servants or something." Even if Chancheng Aoi only has the blood of a magician and has never practiced orthodox magic, in her opinion, this kind of simple preparation, It's a little bit less expected for the magician and magician, which is a profession wrapped in mystery.

"Maybe the two of you are going to be disappointed, but the summoning of the Servant doesn't require such a high-profile seance." Li Ning glanced at the pattern drawn with magical mithril for any crooked and mottled places, and explained. "Isn't it easier for Irisviel to call me? Even Ellie herself didn't realize her desire, mainly because I responded."

As if satisfied with the completion of the magic circle, he nodded overnight and retreated from the altar of the summoning circle.On the altar was something that he had right and regarded as a 'sacred relic',-----a shining Demacian battle flag.It was not the sacred relic used to summon the ruler, Joan of Arc, warmed by the holy magic of Joan of Arc, but the Demacian battle flag held by the night itself.Using his own Noble Phantasm as a means of relying on sacred relics shows how confident he is in his ability as a summoner.

"In this case, the preparation is done."

On that day, in different lands, the incantations for different objects were performed almost simultaneously, which was a coincidence that could no longer be called an accidental coincidence.

No matter which magician, their long-cherished wish is the same.Around a miracle, people bloody murdered each other in order to get this miracle.The call they made to the heroes on the other side of time and space is now resounding on the earth at the same time.

"Declare—"

"Your body is under my command, and my destiny is attached to your sword."

"According to the call of the Holy Grail, if you are willing to follow this will and this principle, please respond."

"I swear here."

"I am the one who accomplishes all the good deeds in the world."

"I am the sum total of all evil in the world."

"You are seven days surrounded by the three spirits of words,"

"From the wheel of repression, the guardian of Libra—"

"I call you to come in my name!"

The summoning pattern shone brilliantly, but this was still within the control of the night. In fact, this was not the first time he had summoned the hero Servant as a summoner.

Sa, let me see a hero who follows the summoner's will!

----Then, in the forest at night, on a stone bench surrounded by darkness, someone now spoke in a voice that sounded like a drawn sword.

"I'm here looking for a challenge, but can anyone give me what I want?"

050, duel master, Fiona

(Hero Junyang, 384075182, it’s okay to join in for irrigation, chatting about lol, 300, Two-dimensional is also excellent.)

In the forest at night, on a stone bench surrounded by darkness, someone now spoke in a voice that sounded like a drawn sword.

"I'm here looking for a challenge, but can anyone give me what I want?"

Although I really wanted to hear that sentence, "May I ask, you are the Master who summoned me?" But it was clear overnight that the Servant he summoned, no matter how wrong it was, could not have gone to Saber's side. .

However, Servants who follow the summons of the Summoner (summoner) overnight can also be called Saber (swordsman) in a sense.She held a slender rapier, like the fancy fencing used in the traditional Western art of fencing.

----It's just that this thin sword is actually a murdering sword that has been consecrated, not the kind of sword that is used in ordinary fancy fencing with a tipless ball attached to it. , In other words, even though it was a duel, the enemy knocked down by this rapier—but would actually bleed and die!

The slender rapier, with a very sharp tip, reflected a chilling white sword glow under the piercing moonlight.
