[Gun Bow] Fuyuki Four Battles, the second week!

Fuyuki's fourth Holy Grail War, compared to the previous three unsuccessful magic rituals of the "Holy Grail", the pace is obviously very slow; it seems that the participants are full of self-sacrifice for obtaining the universal wishing machine called "Holy Grail" Whose self-confidence, or simply does not aim at that cup.

Anyway, after a night of turmoil, the Caster group, which seemed to be preparing for something big, disappeared again.Apart from the personal experiences of the two Rider and Saber teams, the other participants could only get traces of the activities of the Caster team from the ever-increasing emergency news breaks starting in the morning and the bloody cases.

…No, it’s not entirely correct to say this—at least Gilgamesh, who swam to the bank of the Weiyuan River last night, knew exactly what kind of evil was brewing in the middle of the night...

It's just that the oldest hero king, who has always been defined as a spectator and adjudicator, has no interest or obligation to run around as an envoy of justice and save lives one by one.

Just like what he said to his Master after returning to Tohsaka Mansion: "There is no need to worry! Just wait for the theater to open honestly. Tokiomi."

Just because from the morning news report reported by his disciples, Tosaka Tokiomi, who foresaw a big mess that happened in his memory and was about to repeat itself now, and planned to arrange some preventive measures, heard this statement, "You guys I overheard the conversation just now when I was transformed into a spiritual body." Immediately stood up from the seat, turned around, saluted, and said hello: "Welcome back, King."

A series of responses were exactly the same as the set of vassal rituals in the "Failed Fourth Holy Grail War" in memory.

It's not that the head of the Tohsaka family doesn't know how to learn a lesson.

It wasn't because Kotomine Kirei deliberately didn't remind him in pursuit of pleasure.

Tokiomi knew very well that etiquette limited to the obvious would make the King of Heroes find him boring.But even if he did it all over again, he couldn't change his character and come up with social etiquette that would make ServantArcher, a high-ranking familiar, think him interesting—that kind of "etiquette" probably wouldn't conform to the Tohsaka family motto.

So Tokiomi felt even more headache.

He doesn't care how many ordinary people die, but he can't tolerate the destruction of order and the disruption of the Holy Grail War.However, the Caster team, which pursues a different style, remains in the same style. They may once again ignore the magicians' principle of maintaining mystery and hold monster parties wherever they think fit.

"My lord, may I please..."

"It's a great disrespectful crime to let the king do the chores of finding people. Let the servants do the work!" Blood eyes turned coldly at the graceful figure bowing slightly, Gilgamesh turned and left, leaving only The next voice: "Everyone should have his or her own position, you have to figure this out, Tokiomi. Hmph... the king is in a good mood today. If there is another time, the king will punish you."

The golden spirit subdivided, and the King of Heroes left.

Only Tohsaka family leader Tokiomi who continued to worry was left behind, and his disciple, Kotomine Kirei, who had a disobedient smile on his young ascetic face, was left with a slight hook of his lips.

"Tokiomi-sensei, I will let Assassin monitor Mitokawa."

"...Indeed, the Weiyuanchuan incident has the highest probability of happening, and it deserves to be closely monitored." The man in the red suit sat down again, thumbing the jeweled cane under the palm of his hand, and staring at his disciple who was different in every respect with his blue eyes— ─After his death, he became a disciple of the King of Heroes as Master.

"But Kirei, you... the basis isn't that."

"After all, I have been with Gilgamesh for ten years. I still know a little bit of his habits."

The teacher and the students tacitly avoided the embarrassing question of who backstabs whom... and it was the former who was embarrassed and uncomfortable.You know, observing the various expressions on the teacher's face when he reluctantly gets along with the master-killing disciple in order to win, is currently Kirei's best source of pleasure.

"Okay. Order Assassin to keep an eye on Mitokawa."

"understood."

Kirei called Assassin to come in front of Tokiomi, and also gave orders in person.Afterwards, after judging that more than half of the Masters were people who had come back again, Kirei, whose secret alliance had long been meaningless, and who simply stopped hiding his visits, also took his farewell and left through the gate openly.

Tohsaka Mansion, which had already dispatched all his servants and his family, was left with Tohsaka Tokiomi, who continued to sit on the sofa thinking about the follow-up tactics.

Up to now, after deeply realizing that Archer cannot be easily persuaded to cooperate, let alone trying to find out from him the real names of other known Servants, the only thing Tohsaka Tokiomi does not intend to waver is "Master's whole journey It’s best to shrink back to the end if it’s not necessary.” This insistence.

Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't understand Tohsaka Tokiomi's distress, his Servant was quite close to his heart; and he himself was actually even preparing to bring new troubles to Tohsaka Tokiomi.

Like Sakura Matou.

Frankly speaking, the girl's problem has not been completely resolved. At least the worms in her body—including the brain worm that thought it was hidden well, cannot be cured by using rune magic or Einzbern's alchemy.

It is a problem to have a specialization in the art industry.

The cost of going abroad for treatment is another issue.

However, in Emiya Kiritsugu's calculations, the above two issues and how to improve his winning rate in the Holy Grail War can actually be combined into one.

After lunch, he found Matou Kariya who was still in good spirits today.

Kariya's current physical condition is considered to be in a good state of recovery when the bug was suppressed by the rune and fell into a hibernation-like state.Therefore, although the whole person still looks thin, it no longer gives people a feeling of being so weak that they may be blown to the ground at any time and cannot get up.

Matou Sakura, whose internal bugs were temporarily appeased in the same way, has always been inseparable from Kariya these days, so naturally they also listened to Emiya Kiritsugu's plan together.

"You want to take Sakura...to see Tokiomi?" Kariya obviously hesitated, but Kariya seemed not sure what he heard, and asked slowly.

"Ah, it's not too difficult to find a magician who can repel insects. But you don't have any money, right? Even if I'm willing to lend you, I don't have enough private property."

The standing man stared at the one big and one sitting side by side with his dark eyes and said this.Between the lines, there is nothing more than a meaning that Kariya Matou can understand: "Treatment requires money, we have no money, Tokiomi Tohsaka has money. Since it is Matou Sakura's medical expenses, it is only natural that her biological father will pay for it!"

The logic of the magician killer is so straightforward that Kariya can't find fault with it.However, the same killer magician told him that Zouken Matou was not dead, he was still alive after using some kind of troublesome magic!

"Until it is confirmed that the old monster is dead and Tohsaka Tokiomi will not adopt Sakura casually again, I refuse to return Sakura to him." Kariya logically stated his personal bottom line.

After suffering a miserable death with no success after trying so hard, Kariya Matou decided early on to leave this opportunity to start all over for the matter of "saving Sakura", and clearly prioritized all kinds of obsessions.

When the adults were talking, the purple-haired little girl who was one of the protagonists of the topic just kept silent, with her head lowered, and held Kariya's hand tightly with even greater strength.

She expresses tension and trust in a quiet way.

Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes froze for a moment on the clasped big and small hands, and his eyes also softened slightly for a moment.He thought of his daughter Ilya who had been taken out and temporarily placed in Linzhen.

Finally he replied: "...Yes."

Kariya Matou, whose nerves were always tense, breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, he even handed over Berserker, even if it is still an alliance, he is still a completely weak side.If Emiya Kiritsugu wanted to play tricks on the premise of no regrets, there was nothing he could do.

"...Let me know when you leave, we can cooperate at any time."

Without any further response to Kariya's words, Emiya Kiritsugu pushed open the door of the small reception room with rhythmic steps, and the long coat swung past before the door closed, and when the door closed, his footsteps The sound went away.

In the warm small reception room, Kariya and Sakura, whose hearing was at the level of normal people, naturally did not know that Emiya Kiritsugu hadn't gone far at all.In the corridor not far away, he met the Servant duo who seemed to be waiting there specially. Then, out of his sensitivity to modern thermal weapons, he lowered his head and lowered his gaze, staring at the waist and hips of Cu Chulainn, who was dressed in conceptual weapons. .

His gaze was straightforward, without any concealment.

Seen so bluntly by someone who should be called "father-in-law", even though the Celtics' style is bold and open, Cu Chulainn quickly felt overwhelmed within a few seconds.

──Emiya, who was on the other side of him, squinted over with eyes that were close to looking at scum.

"Are your hormones so strong that even your father-in-law will not let you go?" Cu Chulainn clearly heard a voice full of sarcasm, and asked softly in his ear.

...It's a pity that it's not a love story.Otherwise he would definitely interpret it as some kind of invitational hint.

But now, Cu Chulainn chose to speak at an unprecedented speed, and quickly shouted: "──Master! For the sake of family harmony, do you want to speak directly? Your son-in-law is about to catch fire!"

Emiya Kiritsugu raised an eyebrow.

Son-in-law is a sensitive word, that's right.

Then the father-in-law who raised his eyebrows naturally said slowly: "Then I'll ask. Your waist... ah, yes, that extra belt... don't you think it doesn't match the armor? Oh, sorry Ah, that's not the point. The point is where are you going with the mag bag? That's not how your gun is supposed to be used... tsk."

Sure enough, it was slow.

Just for this sentence, Emiya Kiritsugu spent almost a minute and a half to say it.It was so slow that Emiya noticed the disharmonious equipment on Cu Chulainn's waist in advance, and replaced Ling Chi's eyes that said "you won't even let your father-in-law off".That's why the unconsciously childish father-in-law let out a loud "tsk" in displeasure.

"... How old are you..." Emiya was speechless.

"Hey, hey hey, really! What is this──oh! It's actually part of the concept arm!" Cu Chulainn's voice was full of novelty.

He quickly completed his search and probably guessed what was going on.

It is nothing more than the result of the ontology.

So in order to complete the test of "the second half of the third stage" in that memory, I installed it to all the spirits simultaneously, right?Thinking of this, Cu Chulainn's red eyes, which symbolized the blood of a demigod, immediately drifted towards the current master and father-in-law who assumed the role of father and proposed the "Son's Companion Assessment" in another world line.

"Well... To put it simply, father-in-law, your request has been fulfilled. Now, the inherent time control bullet." He handed over the entire magazine bag, and said by the way: "I have one more inherent skill: "Magazine Filling"──but filling Don’t expect nothing. There are only so many bullets in this bag, it’s not that the Caster will be gone after it’s used up.”

"Twelve rounds for a Holy Grail War is enough."

Emiya Kiritsugu took a rough look, the box was still transparent, one could clearly see the processed special bullets inside, and the surface layer of unknown material was red or black.

He tilted his head to look at his adopted son who was looking into the magazine bag.The kid looked a little surprised, and it was obvious that he didn't expect Cu Chulainn to play this move.

"gun?"

"Yes." Projected.The structural diagram comes from the remains of Emiya Alter before it was divided into a whole.

"Yeah. Let's go out at five o'clock in the afternoon."

After finishing speaking, Kiritsugu returned the magazine package to the original owner, and continued walking forward in thought.How would you describe that expression?Probably... "Ah! This guy is going to do something bad" feeling!

……

"I remember, Kim Pika doesn't usually stay at home at night?"

"That's just the difference between very lively and very lively."

……

Anyway, the two heroic spirits who watched that figure walk away agreed that——tonight's probably... um, it's indescribably lively.
