Crown Dead

Well, this conclusion always feels unexpectedly realistic, but also very fantasy.

"Let's not talk about it. After countless checks and intelligence collections, we finally discovered the conspiracy behind everything! Although Fuyuki is peaceful and peaceful on the surface, there is an extremely large and dirty place in the dark. Dirty conspiracy!"

"That's right, Fuyuki is actually an experimental base for new energy sources! Gas ↗ gas pipe ↗ ↗ road ↘! Why do explosions occur even in places where you don't have any? Why do people take such serious disasters for granted? The boss hasn't been arrested yet?"

"There is only one answer - because Fuyuki's gas is actually made for a new type of fuel for the engines of the Wandering Earth Project in the future, the latest energy substance!"

It is always the last straw that breaks the camel's back, and the "black mud gas poisoning collective hallucination incident" that occurred in various places that night was the straw that completely broke down the citizens of Fuyuki.

After that night, the citizens of Fuyuki established the SCP Foundation (S said that C town gas planning I will never believe the fart), and at the same time, they are committed to making Fuyuki completely eliminate gas, using light energy and solar energy, and building green gas-free pipelines Explode the city.

Of course, what these citizens don't know is that, taking that night as the dividing line, Fuyuki really walked towards an irreversible collapse step by step because of the layout of a magician from the Age of Gods.

All the abnormal people in Fuyuki, magicians, heroic spirits, and even some passers-by, more or less sensed the subtle changes in the surrounding environment, and the sudden attack of the 'black mud monster' was only the most intuitive manifestation.

But this is also a key node for the Fourth Holy Grail War to completely turn to the 'singularity'.

"Ai Li, are you okay...uh."

In the Einzbern Castle, Saber withdrew the sword of the vowed victory in her hand, and immediately rushed to her acting master Irisviel.

Saber, Irisviel, and Emiya Kiritsugu are currently in the same location as the previous castle. Although the reason why Emiya Kiritsugu suddenly proposed to return here is still unclear, but there have been many black people here just now. Although the individual attack ability of a monster without a body is not terrifying, because of its weird characteristics, Saber still used a curry stick to completely wipe it out.

Before she finished worrying, Saber saw the scene of Ari holding the black mud monster with one hand and lifting it into the air with a smile on her face.

It seems that since the robot riot, Allie has opened up an incredible skill tree.

In Saber's original impression, Irisviel should be as noble and holy as a snowflake, but also fragile like a dream that needs careful care and existence.

result now

"Ellie! Are you all right, we need to get out of here soon—"

boom! !

His real Master, Emiya Kiritsugu, walked out of the castle, and before he could finish his words of concern, he was abruptly interrupted by the big hole that Irisviel smashed into the floor beside him.

"It's good that you're fine, Kiritsugu~"

Ari said to Emiya Kiritsugu with a smile on her face, but after all, Saber is the King Arthur who has rich experience and experienced the warmth and coldness of the world, she could see at a glance that Ari's concern was just a fake show.

Of course, it may also be because the veins on Allie's forehead revealed her true thoughts.

"...Well, can I explain it?"

Emiya Kiritsugu wiped off his cold sweat calmly, and out of a strong desire to survive, he tried to explain why he would return to this magic workshop that had been discovered by most people and lost its defensive function: Einsbern castle.

"Of course it's okay. After all, Saber and I, and even Hisau Maiya-san, all want to know why Kiritsugu suddenly brought us here, who have not rested for a long time, because we are making a new magic formation. , and didn’t explain anything, I was looking for something alone there, and in the end even attracted a large group of unknown black monsters?”

Although the tone was very brisk, anyone could hear Irisviel's anger in her tone.

After the artificial man and the Lost Banquet before, the magic workshop of the Saber camp has been completely exposed to everyone's field of vision, and its own defense core was also personally killed by Emiya Kiritsugu with the origin bullet.

In the Holy Grail War, a magic position that can guarantee the safety of the master is very necessary.In a sense, Weber's B&B is a magic workshop with a high degree of concealment, while Kenneth's original hotel and Einzbern Castle are magic workshops with very strong defense mechanisms in the traditional sense.

A rational and careful master will always keep himself within the defense range of his servants, and at the same time, he will rest and prepare as much as possible in his magic workshop.

However, Kiritsugu Emiya suddenly gave up the new position he was making and returned to the original Einzbern castle. His behavior not only puzzled Alice Saber, but also made them suffer a lot.

"First of all, those inexplicable things were not attracted by me—no, maybe they were attracted by me, but this has nothing to do with Einzbern Castle."

The familiar (camera) arranged by Emiya Kiritsugu earlier captured an interesting picture near the Tohsaka mansion. A suspected heroic spirit appeared near the Tohsaka mansion, and he was suspected to be Gilgamesh... the son's heroic spirit, fighting against Same black monster.

These black shadow monsters that suddenly appeared were not created by the participants of the Holy Grail War or their heroic spirits. It is more likely that other forces attacked the masters indiscriminately.

"Anyway, this is what I'm looking for, Ellie."

Emiya Kiritsugu took out a strange rune from his pocket, and Alice noticed that it was the same existence as the defensive barrier located in Einzbern Castle in Germany.

"Kiritsugu... what are you going to do with this thing?"

Irisviel looked at Emiya Kiritsugu with some concern. Since the previous android riot incident, his behavior seems to have changed a lot.

But... Eri couldn't figure out how to define the changes that took place in Emiya Kiritsugu.He seemed to be much less serious about the Holy Grail War itself than before.

He tried hard to purchase heavy firepower through black market channels, and deliberately returned to the abandoned Einzbern Castle that had been exposed and might even be monitored, just to find the core of the Einzbern family's defensive barrier.

"Love me does not intend to hide my recent behavior, but I know that it is still unclear whether these things I have done are correct, or are stupid behaviors calculated by others."

Emiya Kiritsugu looked at Irisviel with a hesitant expression.

Irisviel looked at Emiya Kiritsugu who did not hide her hesitation in front of her, and completely let go of her airs in front of her.

She didn't know which of the current Emiya Kiritsugu, compared with the previous Emiya Kiritsugu whose actions were all aimed at efficiently and reasonably killing opponents in the Holy Grail War, was the "Magician Killer" she knew well.She only understood one thing, and that was that this man, who had never wavered, actually felt hesitant during the holy grail battle for which he had prepared his entire life.And the only thing I can do is to help and trust him as always.

"Whatever you choose, I will always support you."

Eri responded with a smile, and that smile was like sunlight shining into the deep sea.Let Emiya Kiritsugu have more confidence in what he will do next.

The path I'm walking on is no longer the goal of 'becoming a partner of justice', which has never changed.

"Eri, after the Holy Grail War - I might be expelled from the Einzbern family."

"—Delisting!?"

"Ah. But don't worry, I will definitely bring Illya back, even if I am an enemy of the family."

When Emiya Kiritsugu inquired about the information, he gradually understood one thing: the Holy Grail War was just a ritual leading to some kind of magic, a pretense.
