[Comprehensive] Self-cultivation of the villain master

Using Emiya Kiritsugu, a magician who is good at assassination, as insurance for this Holy Grail War, to protect the safety of his master and servants... Astra thinks it is an extremely wasteful act, but it is a pity that There is no second magician who is capable and controllable at hand, no matter how wasteful it is, it can only be done like this.

Especially in this Holy Grail War, except for the three helpers Astra found, everyone else knew each other well.Then rashly letting unfamiliar people mix in will actually interfere with their team, and this is not a good thing for everyone.

Therefore, Emiya Kiritsugu's trump card was used by Astra in other places.

Knowing that the Holy Grail cannot fulfill his wish that he didn't even know how to do, Emiya Kiritsugu chose to stay away from the world with his wife and sleep in the Holy Grail until he met Astra again. wake up.

And this also means that he and Irisviel are no longer human beings. The magic power of the Great Holy Grail has eroded their bodies and endowed them with brand new selves. They have also become the restraining power of the Great Holy Grail according to the request of the world. .

Astra had helped them a lot, plus they all existed in the world with the desire to save the world, so Emiya Kiritsugu had no objection to their request.

Hiding in the dark as in the past, like a leopard watching its prey, as soon as the enemy appears, it will suddenly jump out and catch the opponent by surprise.

It should have been like this!

Facing the young man who appeared out of nowhere, even though the other party still had a smile on his face at the moment, Emiya Kiritsugu and his servants instinctively felt the crisis.

This young man who calls himself Kotomine Shirou is not an ordinary person at all, but if he is a Servant, Emiya Kiritsugu can't feel anything abnormal, but when it comes to human beings—what kind of human beings can exude such an aura? !

"Master, please step aside."

Artoria's eyes were cold, and the holy gun in her hand was pointed at the visitor.

"Who are you?"

"The holder of the Holy Grail, Kotomine Shirou."

The young man with the same surname as Yanfeng Qili was still smiling, showing no sign of being afraid of the girl in front of him.

Emiya Kiritsugu glanced in one direction unconsciously, and suddenly understood something.

"Who are you, Yanfeng Qili?"

"Qi Li is my younger brother."

Kotomine Shirou smiled, but his hands were doing movements that were completely inconsistent with his gentle expression.With the slight movement of the fingers, the slender fingers with well-defined joints, each holding a sharp metal blade.

When he saw that blade, Emiya Kiritsugu knew that it was very difficult.

The seemingly indistinguishable weapon from an ordinary blade is actually an anti-magic weapon, the Black Key. Since this weapon is made of magic, as long as the magic power is sufficient, this young man named Kotomine Shiro can carry at least a hundred rounds.

The most important thing is that the same thing as Yanfeng Qili is that the other party is indeed the nemesis of their magicians.It must be said that it is a very ironic thing to hold a weapon made of magic, but it is the enemy of magicians.

Emiya Kiritsugu did not stay where he was, took out his Noble Phantasm, and pressed the weapon in his hand towards Kotomine Shirou without hesitation.

"Bam—"

Kotomine Shirou didn't take this bullet seriously, he just turned his head sideways and easily avoided the opponent's sudden attack.

"His intuition is terrifying."

The sudden voice made Kotomine Shirou slightly taken aback, and immediately asked, "Is that Acher's Master?"

"Yes or no, none of your business, Ruler."

A pair of hands, before Kotomine Shirou could react, dragged Emiya Kiritsugu and Lancer together into the rippling vortex, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Fast, accurate, fierce!

"Oh? This is really an unexpected harvest."

Without using his intuition to catch up, Kotomine Shirou put away his weapon and brushed past passers-by as if there had never been a duel here.

Astra originally didn't want to expose his hole cards so quickly, but when Irisviel told him that he couldn't get in touch with Emiya Kiritsugu, he knew something was wrong.

Using the positioning function of the Great Holy Grail, Astra, who had cast illusions on herself, quickly found the opposing sides on the street.

He didn't attack from the front because he knew that dealing with Ruler was not so easy.

Running to a nearby park, Astra used the space ability. In order to let Emiya Kiritsugu notice, he deliberately made a movement, so that he could take the two away in time without letting Ruler get too close close.

After getting the two of them to the park through the space ability, Astra immediately opened a new passage, and said to Emiya Kiritsugu: "It's not safe here, leave here immediately, go back and talk if you have something to say."

Emiya Kiritsugu made Arturia disappear, and followed Astra through the passage.

Before leaving the park, Astra arranged a few magic tricks around her, with an unknown gleam in her eyes.

Not long after the space passage disappeared, Kotomine Shirou turned back after taking a detour, looked around where there was no one, and frowned, "It's really strange."

In the sky, streaks of golden flames rushed towards him, forcing him to leave his place, and entangled with these things that came out of nowhere for a while.

Before he could recover, the fountain that was originally for people to take pictures and enjoy had a mutation.

The jets of water seemed to be frozen, and the extremely hard blades of ice suddenly appeared from the fountain, attacking the place where the young man was with varying thickness.

I didn't expect to be posed by someone, Kotomine Shirou's face is not very good-looking, these things are not difficult to solve, but after he has dealt with these things, the things that were left in the air that could guide him in the direction are gone.

"It seems that the owner of that voice is very aware of the abilities of a servant of my class."

Sighing, Kotomine Shirou began to struggle against the traps left behind.

Coming out of the vortex, Emiya Kiritsugu had a cold face.

"It's actually Ruler..."

Astra remained silent and closed the passage.

The reason why I can transfer from there directly to Einzbern's castle with peace of mind is because Astra has set up many traps before leaving, and those are just illusions that will not leave traces, and will only target the chosen one. If the target is attacked, other people will not suffer even if they pass by.

And he was confident that when the follower got rid of the illusion, there would be no way to find out.

Artoria undid her spiritualization, and looked at Astra.

"Astera, did you find out about Ruler?"

"In the Fuyuki Holy Grail War ten years ago, I was not summoned with a normal class. Even as a Ruler, I only know part of the information. Every Ruler has similar and different abilities. Judgment', it can be regarded as a follower of heaven, earth and human beings of the type of king."

Witnessing the whole process of how the blue-haired boy eliminated Gilgamesh, Artoria nodded knowingly: "That's why at that time, you could easily eliminate the two servants with king attributes. "

"No matter what, they are also kings. Even if I have the power to restrain them, there is no doubt about their own strength. It is not as simple as you said."

Having said that, Astra pouted: "But it's not important."

As if she didn't want to mention more about the last war, Astra said: "I have met other Rulers before, and she has the ability to see through the real name, which is what I am eager to let Alice Fei I contacted you and found that there was nothing I could do, so I came to you in person.”

"Being able to know the true name of the servant means that the Noble Phantasm is no longer a secret, and the advantages of the servant itself are gone. In addition, the special situation of Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel was discovered by him. It would be very bad."

"Although I don't know how he avoided other people's eyes and ears and became the person in charge of the church. As far as his identity as a living magician killer is enough, it is enough to put the two of you into passive and trouble."

Hearing what Astra said, Irisviel finally understood why when he learned that the enemy was Ruler... he would immediately demand to call Emiya Kiritsugu back.

"Then we just illuminated, haven't we already—"

There was shock in Arturia's eyes, there was such a thing in this Holy Grail War, and it was an enemy!

"Don't worry about that. I rushed to the scene as soon as possible, used some small means to interfere with his ability, and then quickly took you away. He hasn't seen your real names yet."

Seeing Lancer's surprised face, Astra smiled and said: "Otherwise, I wouldn't need to leave some 'gifts' for him before leaving. It was precisely because I knew that he would chase after him if he didn't detect anything. gave him a 'surprise'."

Hearing what Astra said, Irisviel couldn't laugh or cry.

"Okay, you're clearly playing off. If you really make a move, it's not difficult to get out of your body. You're still a human being running around with the Holy Grail."

Astra clicked his tongue twice, and complained to Emiya Kiritsugu: "Your Airi is getting stricter and stricter, and she doesn't have any respect for me, the Master."

"That means Eri understands you, Master."

Emiya Kiritsugu said so, and Astra couldn't say anything, and told Artoria: "I have something to ask you alone, come with me."

Artoria put away the holy spear in her hand, and looked at her Master, Emiya Kiritsugu nodded at her, motioning her to follow quickly.

Not intending to go around in circles at all, Astra asked Arturia directly.

"The enemy also has the Knights of the Round Table, Aggavin, Tristan, and Mordred. When you face them... what will you do?"

Almost without thinking, Artoria replied with an unchanged expression: "I will bet my reputation as the King of Knights and defeat them!"

Astra smiled, showing approval.

"Very good answer, so I feel relieved."
