Longevity Story

But in the next instant, Emiya Kiritsugu was caught by the "thing" that Kotomine Kirei had left on the empty ground after fleeing into the dark—

It was a petite girl in white with a big hole in her chest, a lot of air out and little air in. It looked like she was less than ten years old, but the expression on her face now seemed extraordinarily painful and sad...

Although the girl in white did wear Hassan's iconic skull mask.However, no matter how you look, you can't see that such a little girl would be a professional killer in the dark night.

At this time, information from Seika about Assassin of this Holy Grail War appeared in Emiya Kiritsugu's mind——

[Hassan, the hundred-faced, split into a variety of multiple personality servants with different personalities.Use Noble Phantasms to turn these personalities into real heroic spirits, so that each personality becomes an individual that can exist independently and complete different tasks... Of course, these personalities also have disguises that are not used for combat and assassination. Personality is that. 】

The moment he saw the little girl in the white dress, Emiya Kiritsugu frowned, and in the next instant he raised the submachine gun that had been put down again.

【Da da da--】

After the three submachine gun bullets instantly understood the life of the dying little girl Hasan, Emiya Kiritsugu once again started his own high-speed movement method using the [Inherent Time Control].

This is the most suitable method to prevent himself from being surrounded by a large number of professional assassins with super agility.

Of course, if Kotomine Kirei could be sniped from a distance, Emiya Kiritsugu would not want to face him directly, but unfortunately the conditions at night did not allow it.

However, as long as it is not a super long-distance sniper, one thing will happen at this moment——

On the route that Emiya Kiritsugu was advancing, and in three directions, there was a Hassan holding a murder weapon in each of them.

Sure enough, Hassan, who was near Emiya Kiritsugu, reacted and blocked his path because of the pause and aiming action that had only a few breaths.

"Three people?"

However, this is not too much of a problem...

[Inherent time control? Triple speed! ——]

The pace under his feet suddenly accelerated, surpassing the reaction speed and movement trajectory of human beings. Emiya Kiritsugu did not have any intention of changing direction, and rushed straight to the Hassan in the center of the route! ——

Hassan also raised his sword to kill without hesitation, but at this moment, Emiya Kiritsugu, who was already close at hand, faced his machete and raised his black pistol...

[The number of Assassin is indeed large, but it is not infinite, and because of its large number, the strength of each individual is limited. It can almost be said that a slightly stronger human magician can bully a single Hassan. 】

----

"Hu, hu, hu... It seems that Saber is indeed right."

Emiya Kiritsugu leaned against the tree and stopped to breathe.

Emiya Kiritsugu faintly admired the three Hassan who didn't know their names, who he had just killed with the [For Spiritual Body] enchanted ammo provided by the Einzbern family. Star engraved.

Even if they are highly skilled, but in this era they still use weapons such as machetes and daggers, and do not have any decent skills and treasures, they are still unable to withstand the power of long-range bullets and grenades that have been specialized in alchemy.

However, even though he said this, he finally won the battle, but there was no hint of joy in his tone.

Because now, Emiya Kiritsugu can really feel Hassan surrounded by dozens of people...

"Emiya Kiritsugu, we finally met... But you are really disappointing me now, and I have completely failed my expectations for you."

Kotomine Kirei's voice came from the gathered Hassan group, and his tone did not hide his disappointment at all.

He had thought Emiya Kiritsugu would be a man just like him, and might have known what he longed for.

But now Kotomine Kirei understood, or should have understood it long ago when he saw the image in the photo—Emiya Kiritsugu was completely different from himself.

Judging from the choice he just made, there is definitely some reason in his heart that prompted him to make that choice.

And he, at least, will not make the same choice as Emiya Kiritsugu just now... that kind of incomprehensible choice.

"...Do you regret it?" Kotomine Kirei asked indifferently:

"If you don't stop at that time, you might really be able to turn around Assassin, who is a Servant, as a human being.

Now, you won't end up in this situation either. "

If just now, if Emiya Kiritsugu didn't hesitate for a moment, and killed the little girl in the white skirt with a gun, and put her pain to death, maybe Emiya Kiritsugu would really be able to use his own three times or four times that of ordinary human beings. Nervous reflex speed and pace, bypassing the blockade that Assan gradually gathered, sneaked into the forest, and continued to carry out guerrilla warfare... However, there is no if, the current Emiya Kiritsugu has put himself in danger because of one choice.

"Ha...what are you talking about, Kotomine Kirei." Emiya Kiritsugu raised his head, straightened his body against the tree, and said lightly:

"I'll never regret what I've done...

Absolutely not. "

There was some kind of black emotion that seemed to be obsessed in his eyes.Never regretting past choices seemed to have a special meaning to Emiya Kiritsugu.

"Humanity, move forward. Looking back is nothing but stupidity."

Except for someone who really went back to the past and wanted to change history...

After speaking, Emiya Kiritsugu silently began to change the magazine for the pistol in his hand, which was an ordinary alchemy bullet.

For Kotomine Kirei, who had been studying magic for two years and whose combat power was almost dependent on taijutsu, the Origin Bullet had little effect, and was not as good as armor-piercing bullets with high destructive power.

"Ah... is it?"

Kotomine Kirei looked coldly at Emiya Kiritsugu who was about to start resisting, and said:

"So, who did you just see on that trash that can only be used to block bullets? Isn't it someone from the past?"

With just one sentence, Emiya Kiritsugu seemed to be stimulated to a certain nerve, his brows furrowed, and he instantly raised his gun to shoot...

However, Kotomine Kirei was protected by several Hassan, and of course he was unscathed.

"Kill him." Kotomine Kirei gave the order decisively.

Although Emiya Kiritsugu still has a certain quality that attracts him.However, if Emiya Kiritsugu were to die here tonight, he would only be at this level.

Looking at the Hassans rushing up around, Emiya Kiritsugu had a sad smile on his face, recalling what Xingke secretly said to him today, he just felt a little "crazy" "It's-

[If Kotomine Kirei actually asked Mrs. Ellie to deal with it, it would definitely be very simple, a long-range bombardment would do, and a win is guaranteed.But... Mr. Master, Kotomine Kirei has some special meaning to you. 】

【Why do you think justice exists?Isn't it because there is evil? ~

The ultimate justice requires the ultimate evil to prove, and this is the meaning of Kotomine Kirei's existence. 】

---

The ruthless blade is about to reach Emiya Kiritsugu's chest and neck. Three punches are hard to beat with four hands. Even Emiya Kiritsugu, who is besieged, can't resist all the blades even if he is skilled in marksmanship.

But at this very moment—

[Inherent time control? Five times the speed]! ——

Emiya Kiritsugu disappeared into Hassan's encirclement, and the next moment he appeared in front of Kotomine Kirei.

A lot of blood had already overflowed from his body, but at the same time as he was injured and bleeding, there was also a golden light that healed his whole body——

[The reason why justice can always defeat evil is not because justice is justice, but because the iron fist of justice is always a little harder than the minions of evil... That's all. 】

This evening, Xingke said something like sophistry, and handed Avalon full of magic power to Emiya Kiritsugu...

738. This is in the dark, some kind of invisible guidance of fate, a confrontation of fate... (laughs)

【Inherent time control o five times speed (Timealter, Pentagramaccel!)】! ——

Five times the flow of time pushed Emiya Kiritsugu's body speed to the peak, and everything around was like a slow-motion playback, and all the bells and whistles could be clearly seen.

Even Assassin, who is known for his agility, is just as clumsy as street thugs threatening passers-by with daggers and handing over money. Their machete path and the flaws in their posture are now all clear...

It works! ——

Bend over and charge!Dodging the blade, bypassing the block, and crossing the body of a Hassan, when passing by him, he hung a grenade on his back by the way, and Emiya Kiritsugu went straight to hiding in Asa. In front of Kotomine Kirei after Xin Qun.

Raise your gun, aim and shoot! ——

【Boom! ! ———]

【Bang! ——]

At the same moment as the explosion of the grenade behind, the penetrating huge impact of the armor-piercing projectile burst out!

In Kotomine Kirei's eyes, everything happened so suddenly—

In an instant, Emiya Kiritsugu in the distance left some light and afterimages on the path and arrived in front of him, and the next instant was a close-range shot!

The scars all over his body, the blood red seeps out of his windbreaker like sweat, the blood and tears in his eyes, the bloodshots from his ears, nostrils, and the corners of his mouth made Emiya Kiritsugu at this time like a ghost returning from hell, standing on Kotomine. In front of Kirei.

The killing intent in his eyes penetrated Kotomine Kirei's body like a bullet that was about to turn into a real body! ——

What happened at this moment... Kotomine Kirei didn't have time to think about it, his battle-hardened instinct allowed him to suppress his body while he was reacting to the limit, mobilizing the few magic powers.

Do not retreat but advance!

Kotomine Kirei lowered his body in a matter of seconds so that he could escape the fate of being shot through his heart, but the bullet still crippled his left shoulder.

The huge impact pushed him back, but Kotomine Kirei held on to the huge impact, threw out the three new black keys in his hand, and slammed into Emiya Kiritsugu's arms!

Taking advantage of the gap between reloading, as long as Emiya Kiritsugu's body grabbed onto it, that was Kotomine Kirei's area of ​​expertise.

"Finally, let me catch you..."

Destroying one shoulder, Kotomine Kirei's hand grabbed the corner of Emiya Kiritsugu's clothes and pulled him towards his side.The freedom of the body is restricted, and even those with [Inherent Time Control] cannot escape quickly.

And it was Kotomine Kirei who greeted Emiya Kiritsugu with a heavy blow—

【Stay on the mountain】! ——

The collision between the flesh and the bones made a faint creaking sound, and everything indicated that Emiya Kiritsugu might have broken several ribs that were already missing a few.

Then, just when Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't react because of the pain, an elbow from top to bottom hit Emiya Kiritsugu on the back...

"what……"

A bloodshot breath sighed out of Emiya Kiritsugu's mouth.

Immediately afterwards, Kotomine Kirei's expression changed, and he kicked Emiya Kiritsugu away and stepped back a few meters.

"Cough-cough-"

Emiya Kiritsugu coughed out two mouthfuls of blood, and while straightening up, he took out a cylindrical stick-shaped "hand grenade" from his bosom. The corners of his mouth lifted, and he showed Kotomine Kirei the "hand grenade" that had pulled the tab open. Randomly dropped to the ground...

"...Fake?" Kotomine Kirei said in doubt.

However, in the next instant, the "grenade" exploded with a strong flash like daylight——

Time-lapse o flashbang! ——

Kotomine Kirei closed his eyes reflexively, with his intact right hand in front of his chest, lowered his body and quickly dodged to the left.and ordered in a low voice:

"Kill him—"
