Shape Moon, The Road to the Magician

Dong Dong Dong - there was a knock on the door, and the abnormal magic source was accurately captured by Xia Yuan and Iskandar

"……who is it?"Webber was a little nervous.

"Want to go see it?"

Xia Yuan winked at Iskandar and asked for his opinion.

Faced with this unknown situation, rather than letting him or Weber take risks, Iskandar, as a Servant, would be more cautious. Appropriate, but this must be done with the consent of the parties involved

"Of course, leave it to me. You stay here to protect my little Master for a while. I'll go and come back."

"Do not worry"

"Hey, Rider, you should be careful too."

About a few minutes later——

"Oh boy——"

Iskandar opened the door with a bright smile on his face

"This king has returned in triumph!"

"So fast?!"

"Of course, come and see who this king meets."

Then Webber saw Kenneth coming in behind Rider, and then he saw a man coming in behind Lancer, both in terms of temperament and appearance.���Both are very outstanding silver-haired women.

But she was not a guest, because her body was tightly entangled with two magic chains built with water flow, and her mouth was sealed by Kenneth.

That night, at the moment when C4 exploded, all the defensive techniques prepared by Kenneth were activated spontaneously. Under the protection of the Moon Spirit Essence, he escaped with almost no chance, and the minor injuries he suffered were easily healed under Finn's healing water.

Because both Xia Yuan and Webber were wearing magic costumes that he had made in advance, which contained defensive spells and physical signs monitoring spells. After confirming that they were still alive, Kenneth was relieved.

Using C4 to blow up a building was such a shameless act. Even if he didn't have to think about it, Kenneth could guess who did it. But can he, the dignified Lord of Mines and a genius in the world of magic, accept this nonsense?

Of course, the sooner a gentleman takes revenge, the better, so he decided to reciprocate, and after recovering a little, he took Lancer and rushed straight into Emiya Kiritsugu's base camp, killing the annoying magician killer first..

Lancer's wisdom treasure can help him easily find Emiya Kiritsugu's stronghold, so it catches him off guard. He has figured out Saber's combat power before, and there is no problem with Lancer restraining him. He just needs to take advantage of this Just take out Emiya Kiritsugu when you get the chance.

In order to be absolutely sure, he not only prepared defensive rituals in advance to defend against origin bombs and other heavy thermal weapons, but also prepared many measures to restrain Emiya Kiritsugu's modern weapons, such as using the magic of thunder formation to simulate electromagnetic pulse bombs, directly Scrap all the modern equipment around you.

In order to prevent him from asking for help from other group Masters, he also specially prepared familiar detection spells and signaling measures to quietly isolate the Einzbern castle.

Then when he and Finn quietly broke through the castle's defensive barrier, and the divine soldiers descended from the sky and entered the castle, they found that Emiya Kiritsugu was not inside at all. Apart from those boring autonomous dolls patrolling the entire castle, Irisviel, a high-level android with rich magical powers, was the only one left in the entire stronghold who still had some value, so she was captured.

This morning, he followed the magic traces of Weber's magic suit and came here specifically to join his two wretched disciples.

Last night, compared to the fighting experiences of other Masters, Kenneth's wonderful adventure was not unexciting.

"Teacher, who is she?"

Seeing Irisviel tied up by Finn, Webber asked curiously.

At the port that night, because he and the Rider entered the venue late, they did not see Irisviel who left early.

"It's just a magic doll, a smoke bomb thrown by Emiya Kiritsugu. But now it's my trophy"

"Compared to this. Kenneth frowned and looked at this stronghold,"Is this... the magic workshop of you two?""

"Weber Wilster!"

"Yes! Teacher Kenneth!!"Seeing Kenneth's expression, Weber subconsciously stood up and replied."Ah, it hurts!"

The body stretched, and the wound erupted with shocking pain. After a scream, a lot of cold sweat broke out on Weber's forehead.

"idiot! Why are you still trying to be strong when you already look like this? Are you trying to make your already weak body even worse?"

"No, don't want to……"After being criticized by Kenneth, Weber silently lowered his head like a student who made a mistake, not daring to refute at all.

"Humph, even a mediocre person should take care of himself and not cause trouble to others."

"But... is this stronghold really an exaggeration?"

Kenneth looked at every corner of the room with the eyes of reviewing homework.

First he touched the wall.

"Not reinforced with magic."

Knocked on the door

"There is no barrier on the door."

As Kenneth said, the two of them did not decorate the stronghold at all due to various scarcity reasons such as time.

Weber was unable to decorate because he did not have enough magic power, and Xia Yuan did not learn how to decorate the barrier. , he didn’t know how to set up magic positions at all, and seemed to have taken this into consideration, and Kenneth didn’t say anything harsh.

"However, the number of familiars used for warning is quite large, and the transformation on your body is also very good. It seems that you have been through a lot during my absence."

"And it seems like you have a lot of secrets that I don’t know about... How about it? Aren't you going to give me a good explanation as a teacher? Got a little secret about you and your Servant?"

Kenneth sat back on the chair and raised his eyebrows slightly, waiting for Xia Yuan's reply.

"……"

Xia Yuan:"I understand, teacher, I will explain it clearly to you."

"Huh, wise choice."

Hearing this answer, Kenneth's frown relaxed slightly, and then he came to Weber and threw a bottle of water of life into his hand.

"If you say... drink this and then go to sleep, the injuries on your body will be almost recovered by the night."

"Ah, this is it?"

Catching the plastic bottle thrown by Kenneth, it didn't contain any magical potion. Seeing that it contained a transparent liquid as clear as water, Weber was a little curious. Because he didn't feel anything special about it. It looks like it's just a bottle of mineral water.

Is this really useful? Could it be that the teacher got the wrong thing?

"Don't worry, you got it right."

Seeing Weber's doubts, Finn opened his mouth to dispel his doubts:"This is the life water I made. It is very effective when used to heal trauma."

"Okay, thank you, Lancer"

"No need to say thank you, we are allies. Finn smiled.

"By the way, teacher, was our previous stronghold?……"

"Although we don’t want to believe it, our stronghold has been blown up by that damn magician scum Emiya Kiritsugu."

Kenneth's face was ashen.

"All gone!"

Although he had expected it, Weber was still very shocked when he heard the result with his own ears.

He knew the value of the magic materials there best, and he would never be able to earn from just those three magic furnaces in his life. Funds. It’s just that simple now... gone?

"My workshop and the prepared magic gifts were all blown up to the sky. Although I recovered some loot from Emiya Kiritsugu last night, these things are nothing compared to my losses."

The more he thought about his magic workshop, the more heartbroken Kenneth became. You must know that not all the things in it belong to him. The magic furnaces were all rented from the Magicians Association. If they were damaged, he would But he had to pay for it.

Now it was not just broken, it was blown to pieces. He had to pay full compensation. Although it was not an unaffordable amount, it was definitely an amount that would cause him to bleed a lot.

"So although I hate to admit it, I will rely on your strength in the next battle."Kenneth took a deep breath,"This time is not the casual attack before, but a true joint effort. You two must do your best to cooperate with me in the battle."

"Eh? Really?"

Hearing this, Weber's face was full of disbelief.

As a classical magician, Mr. Kenneth actually wanted to join forces with him, a rookie magician whose magic has only been passed down for three generations. This made him feel very incredible.

"Yes, the current situation is very unfavorable to us. The church has already assembled too much fighting power. Kenneth took a deep breath and continued:"The combat power of Rider and Lancer cannot be separated now. If we lose another rider, we will definitely be defeated.""

"And the Ruler's wish cannot be realized. No matter who obtains the Holy Grail, even if the Holy Grail is destroyed, the Ruler's wish cannot be realized. We must stop him, not only for ourselves, but also for the future of all mankind, can you understand?"

Kenneth shuddered when he heard Amakusa Shiro's promise to the world of Nod. That kind of future where humans are no longer human beings and where possibilities are cut off is not salvation.

Anyone can win, but they can't. If the Holy Grail really realizes that wish, it will be a big crisis that will wipe out all mankind.

There are people he cherishes in this world, so he will never let Amakusa Shiro do whatever he wants.

"clear!"Suddenly being stared at by Kenneth with such a serious expression, Webb nodded quickly

"Hahaha, you don’t need to tell me, I will also stop that annoying guy. If the world really turns into that horrible state, how can I conquer the world?"

"I completely listen to the teacher's arrangements."Xia Yuan nodded. He knew the stakes.

"Great, let's start with restoring strength and exchanging information."

"Weber went to rest after drinking the medicine. I want to see you return to full condition before dark. Xia Yuan, tell me all the information you know. We will also fight back next"

"clear."The two of them nodded together.

"Lancer, you go and guard the area. I'm afraid this place has been under the surveillance of the enemy Assassin for a long time, so don't be careless and be ready for battle at any time."

"My lord, what should I do with this artificial lady?"Finn pointed at Irisviel who was tightly bound by the water flow.

"Um……"

Kenneth just glanced at her and replied calmly:"Just deal with it neatly. It's just a magic doll. I'm not interested in this aspect."

Although Irisviel has an unusually beautiful appearance, For Kenneth, who has long been in love with her, he is just a puppet created by alchemy at best, and of course he will not show mercy to her. Taking it apart and making it into magic materials is what he wants to do most.

"Woo woo woo……"

Hearing that Kenneth was going to dissect herself into magic material, Irisviel, who was gagged, was so frightened that she started moving around.

"Want to kill? I see"

"Although I don’t want to kill a beautiful woman like you, but this is the master’s order, so... what are you doing?"

Finn walked up to Irisviel, and when he was about to take action, he was stopped by Xia Yuan.

He stopped Lancer:"Wait a moment, teacher. She is not an ordinary cyborg, this is the Little Holy Grail created by the Einzbern family to realize the Third Law."

"Um? The Little Holy Grail?"Kenneth was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then became interested.

"Let’s hear it in detail"

"This lady was the Small Holy Grail prepared by Einzbern during the Fourth Holy Grail War. She was responsible for recovering and detaining the souls of Servants who were defeated or lost their Masters and could no longer exist until the end of the war. The collected souls of the servants will complete important tasks in the final stage of the ritual performed by the Great Holy Grail. She is also the wife of Emiya Kiritsugu."

Listening to Xia Yuan's narration, and seeing the frightened expression on Irisviel's face, Kenneth was convinced that what Xia Yuan said was true, and a smile gradually appeared on his original bitter face.

He thought he was just catching someone. When I arrived at an alchemy doll with an outstanding magic power reserve, I didn't expect that what I caught was the Small Holy Grail.

Compared with the Small Holy Grail, the original magic workshop and magic ritual being blown up by Emiya Kiritsugu suddenly seemed less important..

Finally, he did not forget to look at Xia Yuan.

"Can you tell me in detail the source of the information and what happened to you? What kind of experience can turn an entry-level magician into a special being with magic power close to Servant level?"
