black Knight

When the sun began to slant to the west, Irisviel's desire for shopping was finally satisfied.They set off on their way home with large and small bags of spoils like mountains.

When the group of four returned to their temporary residence in Bingsheng Town, the man who had disappeared early in the morning was smoking a cigarette by the window.When Alicia and the others came back, he put out the cigarette and looked at them with his expressionless eyes.

"I've already done the basic investigation. Tsunayoshi Sawada from Vengola called and said he wanted to discuss the next action with us tomorrow."

"Did he say where we met?"

"Well, at Pengo Lie's base in Binsheng Town, see you tomorrow at the square—then take us there."

"Speaking of which, although I promised to cooperate with the Mafia temporarily, but with a teenager, are you really sure he won't hold back?"

"Well... According to 'Sawada Tsunayoshi' ten years later, he was very strong ten years ago." Alicia waved her hand, "'Hero' also has special professions like 'Devil King' , but it has nothing to do with age.”

"..."

The man with eyes as silent as stagnant water didn't speak any more, and simply withdrew his gaze and turned to leave the living room.Seeing this, Alicia shrugged her shoulders, smiled helplessly at Irisviel, and went up to the second floor on her own.

She and Emiya Kiritsugu seemed to be born at odds with each other, and they would stand cold if they couldn't say a few words.

Seeing this, her heroic spirit nodded to Saber and Irisviel, and walked up to the second floor with her carrying the bag.

"Master Alicia, why do you have to choose to cooperate with that person?"

Heroic Spirit, who returned to the room with Alicia, asked a question that had been squeezed in his heart for a long time. From the first time he knew what this person did until now, he couldn't agree with the other person's actions... let alone that people.

He can ignore sacrifices for the sake of victory, and can use other people's beliefs and feelings as bargaining chips... Although he follows Alicia's decision, he cannot accept such a person.

Hearing Diarmuid's words, Alicia, who was lying on the bed, turned over, sat cross-legged on the bed with a pillow and smiled.

"Why...probably because he is...a person who wants to save the world no matter what. As long as there is this righteousness, there is no need to worry about him being stabbed in the back."

"Although he can't see it, in fact, he loves this world more than most 'kind' people," Alicia said, shaking her head again, "but it is precisely because he loves this world so much, so, He cannot tolerate the existence of 'evil', as long as it is 'evil', he wants to eliminate the full text of opening an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan."

"But not all 'evil' can be influenced, and not all 'evil' can be controlled in the end, so there is a saying 'stop killing with killing, stop evil with evil'."

"It doesn't matter good or evil, it doesn't care about feelings, just like a machine, it only takes the best plan to act, and when necessary, uses 'evil actions' to obliterate the existence of 'evil'... Emiya Kiritsugu is the leader among them."

Hearing Alicia's words, the black-haired Heroic Spirit was even more confused.

"I don't understand, Lord Alicia, if all he wants to do is to eliminate 'evil'...then why would he insult the way of chivalry that Lancer follows, and why would he treat Saber like that."

"On the one hand, it's for the Holy Grail. On the other hand...in fact, disliking chivalry is not in conflict with being jealous of evil. In fact, the actions of knights, sometimes viewed from another angle, are also evil."

"Hey Diarmuid, when you killed the enemy, did you ever think about whether the other party has a wife and children? If you killed a man, his wife and children lost the mainstay of the family, and finally died of cold and hunger. If you die, can the behavior you do be regarded as 'good' for them?"

"Of course, from the perspective of fighting the enemy bravely, you are not wrong. But such 'evil deeds' cannot be stopped no matter what."

"Emiya Kiritsugu... It is estimated that his wish to obtain the Holy Grail is to eliminate all evil deeds in the world or to have no more evil deeds in the world... such an innocent and lovely wish."

"I want to obtain the Holy Grail no matter what for this human impossible wish. It doesn't matter whether you are called crooked or use the most despicable means."

"In fact, in some respects, he is very similar to Saber."

Alicia fell to the side, lying on her side on the bed hugging the pillow.

"These two people are both people who can sacrifice everything for a wish that is doomed to be unattainable—it's just that Saber wears the shackles called 'knight', while Emiya Kiritsugu does not."

"Also, Diarmuid, there is no absolute definition of a good person or a bad person..."

After hearing Alicia's words, the black-haired Heroic Spirit didn't respond for a long time. It wasn't until Alicia felt that she was about to fall asleep that he heard his voice again.

"But even so, I still can't agree with his approach."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, after solving Bai Lan's problem, we will still be 'enemies'. If you develop a good impression of the enemy, then I should worry about it."

They were just temporary allies formed on the premise that 'the enemy is Bailan', and when the Holy Grail War returned, this alliance would be automatically dissolved immediately.

Alicia rolled over on the bed laughing.

"So... ah, it seems that some uninvited guests have come." Feeling that someone with the power of fire walked into the barrier she and Irisviel set up together, Alicia's expression changed, and she looked back. sat up.Lifting the long white hair that fell in front of him, he gave an order to the black-haired hero beside him in a solemn tone:

"Diarmuid, go and deal with them... whoever it is." Whether it's a man or a woman...or a child.

"As you order, Lady Alicia."

The black-haired Heroic Spirit bowed to accept the order, put on the tight-fitting conceptual armament again, grasped two guns, one long and one short, turned and disappeared into Alicia's room.

Watching Diarmuid leave, Alicia tied her hair and went downstairs to meet Irisviel. Although she had already sent a heroic spirit to fight, as the host, she had to go to 'entertain' herself in order to be polite.

It was said that they met tomorrow, and they were attacked today... Should it be said that Mirufiore was too well informed, or was there something wrong with Vongola?

However, no matter which one, it is not good news for them.

Alicia picked up the box filled with the fruits of her labor from the dressing table beside her and walked towards the living room.

"Irisviel, how is the situation?"

In the living room on the first floor, a white-haired woman was using a crystal ball to check the situation on the street outside.Although it was impossible to make a large induction barrier like Einzbern Castle due to the site, the two of them still tried their best to form an induction barrier with a diameter of about 100 meters.

"There are ten people on the east side and ten people on the south side. There is no news from the west side... The situation in the north side is unknown. Although there is a sense of an intruder entering, no intruder has been seen."

"No trace at all?"

"It's not...it's just that you can't 'see' from here." Alice Viel shook her head, "Saber is already on guard at the door, and Kiritsugu is on the second floor to guard against their sudden attack."

"I went to the back door to set up a few traps. The intruders from the east and south are not enough evidence. I have already sent Diarmuid to fight." After temporarily confirming the situation, Alicia closed the door leading to the garden, and then opened the box with The things at hand quickly set up a few simple but lethal magic traps.

Anyway, there is only one mafia that has become a hostile force to them so far, so there is no need to bother to keep alive for interrogation.

These intruders who come running without saying hello... just let them go and never return.

A cold light flashed in Alicia's eyes as she condensed the alchemy product that was enough to kill a person into water droplets and hung it on the invisible magic power line.

After setting up the enchantment, Alicia returned to Irisviel, and checked the situation outside with her.

"Lancer's efficiency is very high, there are no invaders in the east, and he is now fighting in the south... The flames used by the mafia are really amazing. People without magic circuits have been able to fight Lancer who is a heroic spirit so far. "

"That's why Bai Lan has the power to destroy the world." Alicia put her hands on Irisviel's hands, and together with her, she manipulated the crystal ball to check the situation inside the barrier. "If their strength is not so strong, we don't have to worry about it."

To the east is a field of dead bodies, and the battle in the south seems to be coming to an end.There is still no movement in the north, but Alicia intuitively believes that the most threatening character may appear here in the end.

That's right, under normal circumstances, the key characters will always appear at the end as the finale.

After pondering for a while, Alicia temporarily changed her plan, and she said to the white-haired woman beside her:

"Irisviel, you should concentrate on strengthening the protective barrier in the house to prevent sudden flame attacks." Attacks caused by pure flames are not as powerful as grenades, bombs and other weapons.

This ordinary dwelling, whose interior is mostly made of wood, might not be able to withstand such an attack.

Having dealt with the mafia, she knows better than other magicians how destructive the power of the mafia is.

Regardless of whether the other party will adopt such a direct and brutal attack method, it is better to be prepared in advance than to be unprepared.

Come on, let her see how strong the Mirufiore family is!

Looking at the deserted street shown in the crystal ball, the corners of the white-haired and red-eyed girl's mouth curled up in a malicious arc.

Let's fight to see who is the real hunter.
