[FZ] Bewitched

Emiya Kiritsugu woke up.

The black mud made him feel the cold that penetrated to the bone marrow.And the terrible dream given to him by the evil Holy Grail almost shattered the persistence deep in his soul.

But he was a man with a strong heart after all.The moment he regained consciousness, he forced the stiff body to leap upward and pulled the trigger of the gun with his sweat-soaked fingers.

The black cloud that would have devoured him in the next second disappeared with the sound of the gun.Avoiding the ending of being carnivorous by a large number of carnivorous creatures, Emiya Kiritsugu's sharp eyes penetrated the falling insect fragments and caught the enemy's figure.

Matou Kariya seemed to regain consciousness later than him.Perhaps because of his weakness, the other party stood up slowly with his hands on the ground, with faint blue veins protruding from the back of his hands, which looked quite hard.

"Matou Kariya," Emiya Kiritsugu said in a tired voice, "The Holy Grail cannot make people happy."

"I know." Kariya looked at him, his eyes sparkling, "The power of the Holy Grail has been polluted by evil thoughts, and even wishes can only be realized by 'destruction'. Your beautiful desire for people to stop fighting and cease fighting It seems that the wish cannot be fulfilled through the Holy Grail."

Emiya Kiritsugu frowned in pain.

The evil in people's hearts is hard to eliminate. Even the Holy Grail, which possesses great magic power, can only eliminate war by destroying the world.His original most selfless ideals were turned into bubbles by the dirty soul in the Holy Grail.

Become a partner in justice?Now it seems that this is simply a joke.

Although his faith was torn apart in the most tragic way, Emiya Kiritsugu's arm holding the gun was still firm and strong.

The Holy Grail made a nasty joke: it chose two people with very different ideals.Kariya saw Emiya Kiritsugu's lofty ideals, and Emiya Kiritsugu saw Kariya's terrible obsession that he didn't know whether to judge by selfishness or selflessness.

——In order to save all mankind, it doesn't matter if you sacrifice your own happiness.

——For the happiness of only one person, even if everything is destroyed.

"I will destroy this evil thing." Emiya Kiritsugu, who was exhausted physically and mentally, didn't even bother to beat around the bush, "Although I don't need the Holy Grail, I won't let you get it." He saw the other party's obsession ——A poor and evil girl.He knew that if the other party obeyed the girl's wishes and released the evil thoughts, the consequences would be disastrous.

Kariya spread his hands helplessly. "What a headache. I must have the Holy Grail."

"In order to make the only person you love happy." Emiya Kiritsugu put his finger on the trigger again with a gloomy face.

"Yes. You who love everyone selflessly, do you think I'm narrow?" Kariya Matou looked at his miserable and great opponent calmly, "But, Emiya Kiritsugu, you are too rational to put everything You who treat everyone equally, in fact, don’t love anyone at all.”

Emiya Kiritsugu's awe-inspiring eyes wavered slightly.He quickly looked in the direction where Irisviel was.This was the first time he looked for the other party with his eyes after waking up.

The beautiful and fragile woman fell into a coma due to shock.However, Kariya thoughtfully put her on the bench, she was not polluted by the black mud, she seemed to be safe and sound.

Kariya sighed. "I'm different from you. My eyes can only see the people I love, and my heart can only think about their happiness. Even if there are factors that may make them unhappy, I can't bear it."

"It doesn't matter even if humans are destroyed!" Emiya Kiritsugu shouted loudly.

Hearing this, Kariya Matou looked stunned and seemed to want to explain, but Emiya Kiritsugu finally couldn't hold back and fired.

There was no way for this man, who was so weak to stand still, to avoid it.This time, this person will definitely be killed.Emiya Kiritsugu believed so firmly.

The enemy will fall with blood flying——

In the end, this picture was only realized in Emiya Kiritsugu's mind.

The man hit by the bullet was completely shattered.The people who were standing there a second ago were scattered like a nest of insects at this moment, and the flying insects scattered in all directions, forming a dense mass of darkness.

And with it comes eerie magic.That strong aggressiveness is no longer what a "young and promising magician" can possess.It seemed that the cruel power that had been accumulated for hundreds of years was coming head-on, making people tremble uncontrollably.

The swarm of insects that appeared in their original form flew away in fright, and the invisible power returned to silence in this dim space.

Having regained his due calmness, Emiya Kiritsugu quickly sorted out what happened.

The enemy regained consciousness before himself.The other party didn't want to kill him, and he didn't want to be stopped by him, so he used unimaginable magic to forge illusions to hold him back.Now, the other party may have reached the Holy Grail.

"Matou Kariya!" Chewing the enemy's name angrily, Emiya Kiritsugu decided to immediately catch up with him and kill him.Before leaving the ground, he quickly took off his long trench coat and covered the unconscious woman.

At this time, Kariya Matou was walking quickly towards the place where the heroic spirits fought.

No one can stop me who has absorbed the magic power of the dirty inkstone.

Although he harbored resentment towards Matou Zouken, Kariya knew that the other party's contribution was indispensable for him to be able to get to this point.The opponent's magical power surged up like a bottomless pit, allowing him to complete the ceremony and fight the other two while still supporting Berserker in using the "Indestructible Lake Light".

The strange thing is that Matou Zouken, who couldn't stop irritating himself with harsh words before, fell into silence after he came into contact with the magic circle.

Could it be that he passed out from being too excited?However, the opponent who survived in the form of a bug clearly has no human emotions.

Putting aside the doubts, Matou Kariya stepped into the main hall.The chaos inside made Kariya suspect that he had found the reason for the ground collapse just now.

Archer seems to have released a large number of treasures here, and all the facilities in the temple were destroyed, and the inner walls were smashed and collapsed.But I don't know who was provoked, the proud King of Heroes is fighting Lancelot with a sword like a swordsman at this moment.Saber on the side wanted to go to the other side of the hall, where the Holy Grail descended, but was unable to move forward due to external obstacles.

Right now, there is a chaotic situation where the two male heroic spirits are dueling with swords while at the same time preventing Saber from approaching the Holy Grail.

How did it become like this... Kariya couldn't help but hold his forehead, and said loudly: "Berserker, quickly end the battle for me, and take care of whichever one you want."

The melee of the three heroic spirits came to a standstill due to the appearance of an outsider, Matou Kariya.

"Yes, Master." Without the slightest hesitation, Lancelot attacked Archer even more fiercely.

"Are you the Master of Lancelot, you despicable fellow!" The petite girl swordsman showed anger and fighting spirit.

Matou Kariya ignored the other party's hostility.Turning his gaze to Archer, he had the illusion that the other master was still alive. "Archer, your master..."

"Ha, that guy has already been killed. It's really irritating." Archer, who was glaring at Lancelot, was focused on fighting, and didn't hear the meaning behind Kariya's words.

Yeah.Kotomine Kirei was really killed by himself.

Should have known.Didn't I personally hear that person's breathing lowered until it disappeared?

Matou Kariya lowered his head mockingly, a trace of inexplicable pain throbbed in his chest.
