Indeed, the sum total of the instantaneous explosive power of the whole body is concentrated on the fist, that is the Chinese martial arts stunt called "Cun Jin".

In Irisviel's desperate eyes, the centuries-old walls and bars were shattered in a few blows.

It is impossible for a monster like him to win by himself.

After realizing this fact, Irisviel, who had lost most of his will to fight, was rushed into a close distance by Kotomine Kirei unprepared.

After that, the agent effortlessly knocked off the sword in her hand, grabbed her neck with one hand, and raised her feet in the air.

Her noble face was distorted by the pain, and she struggled and twisted her body wordlessly.

The face and name of a man suddenly flashed in the mind of Irisviel, who had lost her ability to think due to suffocation.

The face that appeared at the critical moment of her life was not her husband but someone else——

Rhodes, save me...

"...Dolls."

Kotomine Kirei stared at the doll's face indifferently, and then slowly pulled out the sharp black key from his bosom.

What color is your blood?

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

074 Rhodes is here for a full second

"—Woman, ask you a question."

Kotomine Kirei asked as he grabbed Irisviel's neck with one hand.

"Why didn't you run away?"

"..."

Irisviel bit her lower lip, opened her red eyes with difficulty and glared at him angrily.

"I ask again, woman...where does your will to fight come from?"

Kirei's question was something he really wanted to know.

Why would a puppet without a soul be an enemy of itself?

There was one thing Kirei had already seen through: no matter how he looked for it, there was no Command Spell on the android's body.

While Lancer is still alive, she is no longer the Servant's Master——

Perhaps the Command Spell was stolen by that black-haired boy.

This also means that the Einzbern family has been completely defeated.

So, what is this woman fighting for now as a prisoner?

Kotomine Kirei's mind came up with many ideas, and they were rejected by him one by one.

No matter how you think about it, you still don't understand.

Kirei also assumed a new possibility.

No way, she did it out of her own will, to protect the boy who shattered Einzbern's wish and killed her husband.

. . . utterly absurd.

That was the monster that chopped off Gilgamesh's arm, and it doesn't need protection from a weak woman like you.

But other than that, he couldn't think of any other reason.

Women are often selfish creatures.

Kotomine Kirei could only think of the only answer that could make her act so foolishly.

--Love.

Love, maternal love, and the Stockholm effect, the three emotions are superimposed, giving birth to a strong desire to protect young children.

Women are selfish, but also unreasonable creatures.

"……boring."

Kotomine Kirei, who touched the truth, was very disappointed by this answer.

Although Tokiomi Tosaka gave him the task of bringing the Holy Grail back, the master did not ask for the integrity of the container.

Hmm... Injuries in battles are probably inevitable.

While slowly pulling out the sharp black key from his bosom, Kotomine Kirei spoke to the void.

"Berserker... I'm done here, ready to retreat."

He called for the Servant who invaded with him.

The reason why Kotomine Kirei was able to successfully pass through the forest that was enchanted by the lower layers of Alice Philbo and was not discovered until he entered the castle was all because of Berserker.

[Fog Night Walker B], this skill of his can obtain an effect equivalent to the same level of breath blocking, only at night.

It was transformed from the [Murder in the Foggy Night] that accompanied the appearance of [Jack the Ripper of another class], and it was also included in the Berserker's spiritual foundation.

Kotomine Kirei once again sincerely sighed at the strength and omnipotence of his Servant.

"—"

In the icy winter city corridor, it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop on the ground.

Jack the Ripper's response was a bit slow.

Kotomine Kirei was confused by this, and stopped his plan to pierce Irisviel's abdomen.

Just when he was about to talk to the Servant again, there was a sound in front of him.

"Berserker is here."

goo goo goo...

From the darkness, something rolled towards him.

"...!"

What hit the agent's ankle was a bloody human head.

The horrified expression on that blood-stained face seemed to indicate that he had seen a terrifying sight before he was beheaded.

"Well...I gave you the berserker back."

Along with the childish voice, a beautiful boy with black hair appeared from the front.

Rhodes walked slowly in the corridor late at night, with a chilling expression on his face.

"If you dare to take action against my woman, you must have made the corresponding consciousness, my lord."

……

……

……

...is he here?

Irisviel, who had a weak breath, opened her beautiful scarlet eyes and turned to look at Rhodes not far away.

In the blurred vision of the android, only the figure of the boy was clearly visible.

it's really him...

Just seeing the boy's face made Irisviel feel relieved.

No, not only that.

It was the first time Irisviel saw Rhodes look so terrifying.

On his pale and handsome face, there is an expression of grinning but not smiling, and his dark pupils are absolutely zero degrees like a black hole.

Rhodes is angry.

She was furious because she was hurt.

Einzbern, who was clearly suffering from the extreme lack of oxygen, felt joy from the bottom of his heart and even forgot the pain after knowing this fact.

"……Uh!"

Suddenly, Irisviel's body felt a huge centrifugal force.

She was thrown heavily by Kotomine Kirei as an object, heading in Rhode's direction.

"Oh."

The boy was taken aback and quickly opened his arms to catch her in the form of a princess hug.

Along with the androids, there is murderous aura.

While throwing Irisviel at Rhodes, Kotomine Kirei waved his arm and threw the black key in his hand that he intended to use to stab the android.

The black key flew straight towards Irisviel, who was being held in Rhode's arms.

At the moment when it was about to penetrate her abdomen, Rhode calmly reached out and stopped the hidden weapon.

hiss--

The black key penetrated Rhode's left hand firmly, causing him to frown.

"...Aah!"

The one who screamed was Irisviel, who looked at the left hand of the boy who was injured while protecting her in surprise.

Tsk, Rhodes pulled out the black key with his right hand without changing his face.

This is equivalent to pulling a cut with a sharp tool on the wound. One can imagine the blood pouring out like a fountain.

Irisviel covered her eyes in pain.

On the other hand, Kotomine Kirei's expression did not change from beginning to end.

He knew that he had no chance of winning in a head-to-head battle with the enemy who had defeated the King of Heroes.

The mission to capture the Little Grail failed.

That's it.
