[Comprehensive] Demon Fox Hiding Horse

The roaring black spear pierced through the spearman's chest.

The black-haired heroic spirit was completely surprised and caught off guard, and the moment he was hit, he bowed and trembled.

At the same time that the pikeman appeared due to the impact of the black spear, beside him, the figure of the red-haired young Master also flashed out instantly.

"Diarmuid!"

There was unmistakable anxiety and worry in his voice, obviously he did not expect that his Servant would be traumatized by this sudden and unexpected change.

"My lord... Kurama-sama..."

The spearman, who seemed to be in great pain, bent over and held his chest, struggled to raise his head after hearing the Master's voice.

The expression on his face was full of forbearance and pain, as if he was suffering some unimaginable torture.

Seeing this, Kurama couldn't help but tremble——

If Diarmuid hadn't encountered great emotional ups and downs, in fact, he seldom showed emotions.

He has always behaved very maturely and calmly, giving people a very reliable feeling, so he can completely hide his feelings as he is now, showing a full pained expression on his face, one can imagine that he is at this moment How unbearable the real pain would be...

"What exactly is going on?"

At this time, Kurama couldn't feel more relaxed.

They were just here to watch another Lancer's ending, why did things turn out like this in the end?

This is completely beyond what Zangma expected!

Looking at the trembling black-haired heroic spirit in front of him, biting his lips tightly and refusing to make a sound, Kurama raised his hand and tried to caress the other's arm.

However, the next moment, the red-haired boy froze his expression and froze in place——

Because in front of his eyes, starting from the chest pierced by the black spear, the figure of the black-haired heroic spirit gradually turned into specks of light, and began to collapse and dissipate...

Unlike the effect produced when the heroic spirits transform into spirits, this is a phenomenon that only occurs when the heroic spirits are about to completely leave the world.

Everyone stared dumbfounded at the utterly unreasonable and terrifying scene in front of them—who would know that the disappearance of one heroic spirit would be the reason for defeating another heroic spirit?

Even if they originally came from the same soul, but the Battle of Mitokawa before, it has been proved that the Noble Phantasm is connected, it is a deceitful cover pulled up by Emiya Kiritsugu, but it is used to cover up the fact that he targeted the Kenneth group An excuse for intent?

There is no direct connection between Lancer and Diarmuid. How could it be possible that when one of them dies, the other will disappear with him?

Seeing the red-haired boy standing there with a dazed expression, Saber and Irisviel couldn't help but feel a little bit of unbearable and apologetic in their eyes - after all, isn't Kiritsugu the culprit who caused this result?

Although he didn't attack Diarmuid directly, he was indeed the one who caused Lancer's death.

They really wouldn't be surprised at all if the young man in front of them was going to lay the blame on Kiritsugu.

But the black-haired man who was unanimously identified by his wife and Servant as the culprit was not moved at all.

His eyes fell on the back of the young man's left hand with incomparable precision.

There, the bright red Command Seal that was still clearly present on that skin as a proof of being selected as a Master by the Holy Grail has completely disappeared. While taking away the boy's qualification to participate in the Holy Grail War as a Master, it seems to be It is proving that the boy does not seem to have any deep obsession with the Holy Grail...

Kiritsugu frowned slightly.

With things developing to the point where they are now, Kenneth and Sola definitely can't stay any longer.

In fact, if it wasn't for the incident that just happened, when he lit his cigarette and took the first puff, Maiya, who was lurking in the dark, should have already taken action and killed them.

But I don't want to be interrupted by an accident halfway.

But this is not a big deal, Kenneth and Sola are in such a state now, it is only a matter of minutes to solve them, the one who really makes Kiritsugu feel headache is actually the mysterious red-haired boy standing with his head bowed .

The other party seems to have no obsession with the Holy Grail. Even though he participated in the siege of Caster before, the purpose does not seem to be for the Command Seal.

He and the spearman are surprisingly compatible. One is to fight against heroes from different eras, and in the process to fulfill his way of loyalty to the king. The other seems to be only interested in the Holy Grail War, but for the final result, But he doesn't seem to care too much about it - as I said just now, from the fact that the spearman became the biggest contributor to killing Caster, but he didn't go to the church to receive the Command Seal as a reward, you can see a lot Clue.

The most important thing is that this boy seems to have some kind of very powerful and mysterious power.

It is different from the magician's method, but it makes people unable to avoid being on guard and paying attention.

The means to deal with Kenneth and Sola can't achieve any effect in front of him, and he has not even been able to obtain any information related to the boy until now - he doesn't even know where he lives.

Thinking and weighing quickly in his heart, in the end, Kiritsugu still gave up his plan to exterminate the opponent.

He can't guarantee that he can really do this, let alone, if he angers the other party because of such behavior...

That's really not worth the candle.

Having figured this out, Kiritsugu turned his gaze away, and using another signal agreed in advance, gave Maiya Hisau who was hiding in the dark the order to shoot and kill Kenneth and Sora.

The sudden burst of gunfire made Saber and Irisviel show even more horrified and unbelievable expressions on their faces, and at the same time woke up the sluggish Kurama.

He raised his head and looked at Kiritsugu indifferently, even the bloody scene of Sola and Kenneth didn't make any change in his eyes.

However, that pair of clear emerald eyes made Kiritsugu's heart skip a beat, and the eyes tightly entangled with each other as if facing a big enemy did not dare to loosen in the slightest.

Cangma sneered slightly.

Turning around, without even saying goodbye, the originally extremely polite and elegant boy disappeared in the moonlight, as if he was originally transformed by the moonlight, but now he just returned to his original form.

And after he left, the bright blood all over the courtyard finally made the upright and awe-inspiring young heroic spirit unbearable, and pointed the sword in his hand at the Master who was supposed to be shoulder to shoulder...

——The Holy Grail War is slowly approaching the final outcome that seems to have been established.

***

"How long are you going to pretend?"

Leaving the abandoned factory and slowly walking away in the enchantment of phantom plants, Gilgamesh did not complain about the inefficient way and speed of travel.

It's just that, watching Kurama maintain the expressionless look when he left at the end, those who didn't know thought Lancer's bastard had really disappeared, and how sad and depressed the Master Kurama really felt, King of Heroes Can't help but say something like a joke and a sarcasm.

Hearing this, Zangma stopped in his tracks, and glanced sideways at the King of Gold beside him.

"It's not all acting either."

He said with a slightly dignified expression, and slowly spread his palms in front of the other party.

Between the outstretched palms, there is a ball of light the size of a pigeon egg lying quietly at this moment. The surface of the ball of light exudes a faint luster. But it is also pleasing to the eye, making people reluctant to look away.

"What the hell is this? Did Diarmuid really fall asleep in this little ball? But what happened to him before, and he became what he is now? When will he wake up?"

Zangma still doesn't know anything about this at the moment.

When Diarmuid tried his best to maintain his final sobriety, and before his figure completely dissipated and turned into this small ball of light, he only had time to convey the news that he was fine, but he might need to sleep for a period of time. Knowing more, he took advantage of this to erase the impression that he and Diarmuid were enemies in front of Kiritsugu. After that, he really relaxed and began to study how the Diarmuid in his hand dissipated and re-condensed. into a sphere.

This time, however, to his disappointment, not even Gilgamesh could answer his question.

"This king has never encountered such a situation." The hero king didn't feel ashamed to admit that he had never seen anything.

This incident was weird from the very beginning. He felt that it was not a bad thing, but it was irresponsible for the king to make a judgment, so he didn't intend to say anything to show it. Own omniscient.

—that's really what bastards do.

However, there should be corresponding changes in the next plan, right?

Diarmuid's unexpected "exit" was not within their original plan, which means that the "script" they had previously agreed upon would inevitably require some adjustments.

The King of Heroes doesn't care about this, the final result is what he really cares about, and it doesn't matter if there are some changes in the process.

But Zangma has a different view from him.

"Things have developed to this point, in fact, we don't need to make any adjustments."

Carefully gathering the ball of light in his palm, and comfortingly rubbing the little head of Baituanzi who was staring at him worriedly, Kurama turned his head and showed a faint smile to Gilgamesh: "In When the Holy Grail War started, everyone was already in the game. All the preparations we made before should have taken effect now, so there is no need to worry about any accidents in the process.”

"Because, as long as at the last moment, it is enough to ensure that the step in the plan goes smoothly. Before that..."

What should have happened has already happened, and small changes in details are no longer enough to affect the final overall situation.

The golden heroic spirit raised his brows, but surprisingly, he didn't say anything to refute.

"Heh. Then let me have a look."

As a mere mortal, but trying to calculate the power of the world, what kind of entertainment can you bring in the end.

The golden spirits scattered in the air, and when he turned his gaze, the golden-haired heroic spirit had disappeared from the side, Kurama shook his head, and looked down at Mokona who was in his arms with a concerned expression: "Soon... It's almost over."

Whispering softly, he bowed his head and kissed the little guy's face comfortingly.Seeing the other party curling up her small mouth shyly and happily, approaching and kissing herself back with a smile that was finally reassuring, Yaohu silently clenched her palms——

Dillumdo...

If you can wake up before that moment, then... my promise will always be valid.

only……

But, if you can't wake up...

Feeling the strange atmosphere that was sometimes warm and sometimes cold quietly emanating from the light ball in his hand, Kurama sighed silently.

——Then when the time comes, I hope that the same ending as the King of Heroes will allow you to no longer be trapped in the past, and to regain your goals and...hope.
