Tohsaka's house.
Tosaka Tokiomi had already sent Tosaka Aoi and Tosaka Rin to live in a house in the nearby Zen City.
It was originally a precautionary measure, but Tosaka Tokiomi did not expect this to be a wise move.
Although he had expected that Fuyuki City would no longer be safe after the Holy Grail War started.
But even if he tried to break his poor head, he couldn't think that this "unsafe" turned out to be... He looked at the heavy snow outside the window, and after a long time, he murmured to himself: "This kind of power... the treasure of the star..."
Heroic spirits are the existences of heroes whose great deeds are left as legends after death and who have become objects of belief.
Naturally there are strengths and weaknesses.
However, he never thought that Heroic Spirit could be so powerful.
He had only seen such things as the Paradigm of the Stars in books, and even when he saw the description of the Paradise of the Stars in the book, he thought it was exaggerated in the book.
After all, the so-called anti-city treasure is only to the extent of destroying the city gate, and the anti-world treasure does not mean that it can destroy the world, but something that can destroy the inherent enchantment... Then by analogy, the anti-star treasure Tools, probably to the extent that it can destroy a small mountain... That's what he thought before.
As for the death and injury caused by the anti-star treasure and the degree of exposure to the mysterious side, he has no time and energy to care about it.
Now he is only thinking about how to win the Holy Grail War.
At this time, he stopped his wild thinking, and Kotomine Kirei arrived.
The Assassin avatar guarding here has not disappeared, so he knows that Kotomine Kirei has not died.
However, he also didn't know what happened to the church, and the familiar died before he could pass anything back.
There was no news from the familiars sent after that.
The dusty Kotomine Kirei entered the house and patted the snow covering his body.
Tohsaka Tokiomi asked warmly, "Are you okay?"
"Thank you teacher for your concern, I'm fine."
"What happened to the church?"
Kotomine Kirei began to tell Tohsaka Tokiomi about the church situation.
After Tosaka Tokiomi listened, he was silent for a long time, his eyes revealed sadness, and he looked at Kotomine Kirei with eyes full of apology: "I'm sorry, Father Risei, he..."
"Teacher, don't feel guilty, all this is father's own wish." Kotomine Kirei was as calm as usual, as if he was stating something that had nothing to do with him.
"Father Risho is like another father to me. We should inherit Father Risei's legacy and win the Holy Grail War." Tokiomi Tohsaka said, patted Kotomine Kirei on the shoulder, There was no trace of sadness on his face.
"Teacher, where is Berserker?"
"The Berserker is not invincible. The anti-god treasure in Gilgamesh's treasury is not lost. It is the trump card to defeat the Berserker." Tosaka Tokiomi said firmly, but in fact he had no idea.
"Yes, teacher, what shall we do now?"
Tosaka Tokiomi thought for a while, and then ordered: "Continue to monitor the Matou family and the other masters, and tell me immediately if there is any situation."
After Tosaka Tokiomi finished speaking, he left the room and went back to the magic workshop in the basement, which was his favorite place to stay.
"Yes." Kotomine Kirei watched Tohsaka Tokiomi leave the room before turning around and leaving the room.
But when I passed by the next room, I saw Gilgamesh wearing modern clothes, lying on the sofa, holding a goblet with his only remaining hand, leisurely tasting the red wine in the glass, with an elegant expression, not at all seen by Hui was so embarrassed that she was almost killed.
Gilgamesh looked at Kotomine Kirei, a little surprised: "Oh~, you were able to come back alive after being attacked by that god, how did you do it?"
"It's nothing, it just happened to be no longer church at that time."
Hearing this, Gilgamesh showed a playful smile: "Really, I didn't expect you to be an interesting person."
He suddenly became interested in Kotomine Kirei. At first he thought Kirei was as boring as Tokiomi, but after seeing what this man did today, he realized that he was such an interesting guy. Guys who are killed without grief!
"interesting?"
"Otherwise, the Master who is protected by the church wouldn't just leave the church at such a coincidental time." Gilgamesh raised the corner of his mouth and took a sip of his wine.
"That's just... just a coincidence, but you, what, was your confidence hit by the Berserker? Drinking alone here." Kotomine Kirei's voice was a little anxious.
Gilgamesh didn't seem to hear the provocation, and said to himself: "You know, although the world has passed thousands of years, the taste of this wine is the same as that of my time."
At this point, Gilgamesh paused, looked at Kotomine Kirei and said, "God still treats human life like nothing, but I have dealt with God all my life, why do you think I am afraid of her? .”
"then you……"
"I'm just bored." Gilgamesh coaxed.
"Boring? Why boring?"
"Tokiomi summoned me so that I could remain materialized in modern times. More importantly, he treated me with the courtesy of a subordinate, and I had to return something, but I never thought he would be such a boring man."
"Are you dissatisfied with Tokiomi-sensei's arrangement?" Kotomine Kirei thought that Gilgamesh was dissatisfied before Tokiomi used Command Seals to force him back.
"Hmph, to reach the [Vortex of Roots]? His wish is really boring."
"The desire to reach the root is an idea that all magicians have. It is not something outsiders can comment on. The process of leading to the [root] is to detach from the [outside] of the world, and we who are interested in the inside of the world can only use it. Understand it as a boring wish." Kotomine Kirei explained.
"I see. It's true that I'm satisfied just loving the universe that is my garden. I don't care about the [root] of the areas that I can't touch." Gilgamesh said naturally.
"But the Holy Grail is not a device specially used to pursue the [root]. Since it is called omnipotent, it also hides the infinite possibility of changing the world." Kotomine Kirei said.
"In other words, is the motive of other Masters pursuing the Holy Grail different from Tokiomi's?"
"Mr. Tokiomi is a typical, and at the same time, the most conservative magician. Others are pursuing the interests of the world, that is, the interests of the world, prestige, desire, power..."
"Isn't it great? It's all my favorite things."
"You are the king who reigns supreme among ordinary people, Gilgamesh." Kotomine Kirei patted Gilgamesh's flattery solemnly.
Gilgamesh just smiled slightly, and asked Kotomine Kirei: "Then what about you? Kirei, what is your wish for the Holy Grail?"
Kotomine Kirei was stunned: "I...I have no wish."
"It's impossible. Even gods have wishes. How dare you, a mortal, say that you don't have wishes. Besides, isn't the Holy Grail only summoning those who are qualified to get it?" Gilgamesh looked at Kotomine Chi Eli's eyes.
Kotomine Kirei looked bewildered: "It should be so, but even I myself don't understand why I was chosen to participate in this war when I have no ideals or long-cherished wishes."
"Without ideals and long-cherished wishes, wouldn't it be good to pursue pleasure!" Gilgamesh continued to seduce.
Kotomine Kirei's expression changed, and he said seriously: "Are you kidding me, Joy? Do you want me to get involved in that kind of sinful depravity?"
"Sin? Depravity? Your mind is really jumping. Why is pleasure associated with sin?"
"This one……"
"It turns out that the pleasure obtained through evil deeds may be evil, but people can also obtain pleasure through good deeds. What is the reason for judging that pleasure itself is evil?"
"There is no joy in me. I've been looking for it and never found it."
"Impossible!" Gilgamesh sat up straight suddenly, "Kirei, the so-called pleasure is the form of the soul, it's not a question of [being] or [not having]. It's about [knowledge] or [unknowledge] The problem."
"Kirei, you haven't seen the shape of your own soul clearly. That's why you say that you don't have joy in your heart."
Kotomine Kirei was suddenly touched in his heart. This feeling was contrary to his teachings all along, and he instinctively resisted: "You are a follower, and you want to preach to me."
"Don't be ignorant of flattery, miscellaneous cultivator, these are the words of the king who has exhausted all the luxury and happiness in the world."
Hearing Gilgamesh's words, Kotomine Kirei fell silent.
Gilgamesh continued: "Kirei, you should learn what entertainment is. Let me think about it, right, how about first entertaining with me?"
"I don't have time to waste on having fun."
"Don't say that, this can be done in the spare time assigned to you by Tokiomi." Gilgamesh paused, and continued, "Speaking of which, Kirei, your duty is to send spies to monitor the other five Master, right?"
"so what."
"Don't just investigate their intentions and strategies, but investigate their motives together, and then tell me. By the way, focus on investigating the master of the berserker. I really want to know what kind of wish can resonate with the gods. .”
Kotomine Kirei frowned: "The Berserker... needs time."
"It's okay, I will wait patiently." After speaking, Gilgamesh turned into a spirit body and disappeared.
A forest on the edge of Fuyuki City.
This is where the castle of the Einzbern family is located.
Because it is far away from Fuyuki Church, it was not affected.
But even so, there is no shadow of the past in the lush forest.
Under the blow of the extreme cold, ice crystals were hung on the branches of the trees, and crystal clear pearls were strung on the stems of the grass. As for the wild flowers, their bright petals were covered with a layer of frost, which blocked their original beauty.
The cold wind howled and the snow fell.
The big tree was swaying in the cold wind, and the branches were whipping in the air like whips dancing wildly. As for the leaves above, because of the sudden drop in temperature, they would fall off as soon as they were blown.
The ground seemed to be covered with a thick layer of quilts. Looking around, everything was white and peaceful. Although there were no animals in the forest because it was close to the city, now, even the sound of insects disappeared.
Deep in the forest, there is an enchantment that hides the castle.
Passing through the barrier is the castle of the Einzbern family.
The shape of the Middle Ages is made of solid schist blocks. The whole is square, with a tower for surveillance at each of the four corners. In the middle of the castle is a beautiful flower bed.
The walls of the castle have grown asphalt because they have not been used for a long time, but the inside is very resplendent, with water and electricity, bright and majestic.
In a room on the second floor of the castle.
The heating was turned on inside, and a rectangular table was placed in the middle.
Aliceviel, who had changed into winter clothes, saw Emiya Kiritsugu and Maiya returning from the crystal ball.
Chapter 387 Strategy
On the table in the room was a densely marked map.
In addition to the map, the personal data of other masters and related investigation results are organized into books and placed on it.
Irisviel breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Emiya Kiritsugu return safely.
She loves this man who is cold on the outside but loves him on the inside, not to mention that they have a child.
Behind Irisviel, Artoria stood silently aside.
With a "squeak", the door opened, and Emiya Kiritsugu and Maiya walked in.
"How's the situation?" Irisviel enthusiastically stepped forward, and lightly patted the falling snow off Emiya Kiritsugu's clothes.
Her figure is petite, only as high as Kiritsugu's chin, and she has a graceful figure that does not seem to have given birth to a child at all. At this time, her noble temperament has been replaced by gentleness and virtuousness. The movement of carefully photographing the falling snow on Mount Kiritsugu is very similar to serving her returning husband. virtuous wife.
"The church and the area where it is located have completely disappeared." Emiya Kiritsugu looked solemn, his voice was low, and he breathed out hot air.
When Irisviel heard this, the pupils of her eyes shrank, and her slender hands trembled.
In her eyes, the church was an existence that even the Einzbern family did not dare to provoke. She did not expect that the branch would be wiped out now.
This is no longer as simple as a slap in the face, but a direct declaration of war.
Arturia behind Irisviel asked, "How about the damage outside?"
Emiya Kiritsugu glanced at Arturia with his cold and heartless face, but did not answer her.
No need to think about it, he knew that Artoria was about to show off her pedantic chivalry again.
What he pursues is to save all mankind, not the tens of thousands of people now. In this process, certain sacrifices are inevitable.
Seeing that Kiritsugu ignored her, Artoria frowned slightly.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward.
Alice Viel hurriedly began to smooth things over: "Kiritsugu, why did the weather suddenly become so cold?"
"It's Berserker's Anti-Star Noble Phantasm." Emiya Kiritsugu's voice was tinged with shock.
Maiya glanced at Saber, then at Kiritsugu, and added: "This time the Noble Phantasm used by Berserker seems to be ice-type ability. The temperature in the upper part of the church where the church is located is as low as minus 200 degrees Celsius. The urban area at the foot of the mountain Part of it was also affected, as for the residents there ... I didn't see a single survivor."
At the end of Maiya's speech, even though she was ruthless and murderous, her voice was a little low when she recalled the ice sculptures of human figures that she had seen before.
Bang!
Arturia angrily punched the marble table, causing a crack and dent.
His face was filled with righteous indignation, and he said angrily, "Damn it, that evil god!"
Artoria turned to Kiritsugu, her voice revealing urgency: "Master, we can't wait any longer, the evil deeds of that evil god are really intolerable, we should take the initiative to attack before more people are victimized."
Her voice was crisp, full of justice and vigor, with a kind of masculinity that is rare for women.
When Emiya Kiritsugu heard this, a bit of surprise flashed across his ruthless face, and he couldn't help but glance at Artoria.
