hanged man
(One)
Absorbing the last drop of magic power from Matou Kariya's life, the Berserker, who has completely gone berserk under the orders of Kotomine Kirei, has amazing arm strength!With her right hand seriously injured by r and disturbed by her opponent's true identity, Saber couldn't show her strength at all, but only a few short sword confrontations, the golden sword was caught by Berserker, and the indestructible Lake Light Sword The blond girl only felt a light palm in the moment of lightning and flint - the golden sword was picked up by the berserker and flew out like this!
"arthur...!!!"
Grasping the gap between Saber's mistakes, the dark black sword body of "Undestroyed Lake Light" burst into a strange light for an instant, and the incomparably sharp blade was aimed at the girl's left arm and chest skillfully just like he did in life. The weak point where the armor was connected was easily pierced and pierced through the enemy's chest!
Saber's movements froze for an instant, bright blood splashed on the dark gray wall, and the girl's long golden hair was messy and scattered on the blood-stained silver armor.She raised her head, and she seemed to return to that tired and happy morning in a trance. She walked through the barren field and stepped on the bushes.
The blue-haired and handsome first knight, the first friend who reached out to her and swore allegiance to her when she determined to dedicate everything to Britain... At that time, his smile was so elegant and calm, it was vaguely the beginning of her dream, the last beautiful picture.
【My respected king, you have withstood the test of the fairies on the lake, and you are truly a king worthy of my respect and allegiance.From today onwards, but there is an order, and there is nothing I can't do...]
The black lake light turned slightly, this is a small movement of soldiers on the battlefield who are used to enlarging wounds, Saber's pale cheeks flashed with a painful look, and all the strength was sucked away at this moment——"Indestructible lake light" is There is a legendary sword of dragon slaying, and Saber itself is just the legendary red dragon, so the damage of the sword of Berserker is almost fatal to Saber!
"sir..."
The last call wafted away in the girl's voice that was like gossamer. Seeing Saber slowly fall towards the ground, Berserker's blood-red eyes that had been completely swallowed by magic power did not show any hesitation or pity. Just about to give Saber the last blow, he suddenly raised his head as if sensing something!Even in the state of losing his mind, Berserker's perception as a soldier is still keen!With just a waving, countless rubble ruins instantly turned into treasures under the magical power of "Knights don't die with bare hands" rose into the sky, and smashed towards R and Sanada Yui who had just landed at the entrance of the Holy Church Church!
"...!"
The astonishment was only a short moment, and it was almost at the same moment when the Berserker attack struck. R's "Red Rose of Breaking Demons" shot without hesitation!He already understood the weirdness of Berserker's ability in previous battles. He knew the horror of "knights can't die with bare hands", so he activated the treasure attribute of "Red Rose" "Devil Demon" without any hesitation, and only heard a shower of raindrops Amidst the sound of falling metal and gravel, the dexterously dancing crimson long spears seemed to form a shield shadow, blocking all the attacks of the Berserker!
Sensing the fighting and provocative intent ignited by r, the gloomy knight standing on the sloping roof of the church slowly turned around, and the deep black lake light moved away from the blond girl's head silently, silently points to r.
"Master..."
He bent down and already assumed the posture of facing the battle.And upon hearing the pleading call, the dark green long-haired girl took a few steps back at the right time, allowing the other party to stand in front of her as a guardian.Although the battle with Archer was narrowly won, even as Qi Sankong, she couldn't bear such a large consumption for a while. She was such an alert person, but just now she unconsciously fell asleep on R's back. With her current state, it is really impossible to fight another heroic spirit in a short time.
"My current state, I believe you can feel it without saying much, right? So..."
After a slight pause, the dark green long-haired girl raised her dark blue eyes, stared at the handsome and straight back of the spear knight, and slightly raised her pale lips.
"Please protect my little life, handsome Mr. Knight."
"Master..."
Even at such a serious time, when he suddenly heard the girl's slightly teasing words, R still couldn't help but choked slightly.Not daring to look back, the girl R quickly returned to normal after a brief embarrassment, and pointed the crimson spear point at the berserker who was about to move in front of her.
"Yes, I will not disgrace my life!"

The ground was covered with scorched ruins, and the entire church was like a crumbling dangerous building. Gravel and charred toner would suddenly fall from the high dome and the walls on both sides... Weber swallowed heavily, alert He grabbed the rider's cloak and looked around, only to feel a chill hit his back.
A few days ago, the Church of the Holy Church was still a sacred and neutral place where the Overseer was located, but now... this is simply a haunted house!
But no matter how scary it is...it won't be more terrifying than r's lair...
Silently cheering himself up from the bottom of his heart, Wei Bo stepped on a piece of burnt wood that had been burned by the fire as soon as he stretched out his foot. fell on the rider's back.
"..." Feeling the pull from behind, the big red-haired man almost had the urge to turn around and pick up his little r by the waist and walk, "Hey, I said you've seen everything in kid r's lair, and there's more here What--"
"Shh! Shhh! Stupid!!!"
Rider's rough voice echoed in the empty church hall without restraint, and Weber wanted to jump up and cover his mouth for a moment, "Stupid! If other r's can hear it—ahhhhhhh!!! "
Halfway through the warning in his mouth, Weber suddenly felt something cold and slender living thing jumping up his calf!This sudden attack made the trembling boy scream and violently shake his calf, intending to throw the unknown creature out, but the rider grabbed his calf, and he fell to the ground with a "boom" on the floor.In the darkness, the rider sensitively captured the strange magic fluctuations on the young man's body that did not belong to him, and quickly pinched the thing on his fingertips with his eyes and hands!
"W-what is it...!"
Gritting his teeth tremblingly, Wei Bo didn't care about the hidden position any more, he crushed a magic capsule and released a short-term lighting magic. Worm?! Why is it here, could it be... eh?!"
The dim and subtle light of the lighting magic leaked from the boy's fingertips, and Wei Bo vaguely seemed to see something else at his feet.He thought it was some other accumulation left by the burning in the church, and subconsciously wanted to bypass it, but suddenly found that it was actually a man wearing a dark gray hooded coat with his head down and motionless!
"Accurately, it should be called 'Engraving Worm', and it is the secret art medium of the Maric (Matou) family, one of the three major magic families in the Far East... Hmph, but in the final analysis, only serious magic families can know about it." It's no wonder that you, an unknown pawn with only three generations of magic blood, know nothing about it."
From a corner in the dark ahead, a distorted voice came from a man who was as arrogant as ever.Weber's movements stiffened reflexively for a second, but after experiencing so many things in this Holy Grail War, he was no longer the boy who trembled when he heard the voice of his former mentor.He raised his head, faced the direction where the voice came from, and tried to gather the magic power around his eyes, and then put on a defensive posture towards the man with his hands behind his back; however, to his surprise, this time, Kenneth did not He didn't respond to what he meant, but just let out a soft chuckle of disdain.
"To be honest, Mr. Weber Velvet, it's really beyond my expectation that a short-sighted and whimsical mediocre person like you can survive the Holy Grail War gathered by famous families until now! Don't put on a ridiculous defensive look, Your little tricks are not even a struggle in front of me, so..."
Kenneth Archibald's arrogant and crazy voice seemed extremely strange in this gloomy darkness; it was different from Kenneth's arrogance and pride when we met last time, it was so scary and somewhat evil, as if The man in front of him seemed to be possessed by r... Wei Bo's back felt chilly, and he clenched his fists. The boy was about to say something, but the rider pulled him away from behind in the next second!And at the same time, a silver light that was so fast that even the afterimage could not be seen clearly brushed against Weber's ear, and slashed towards a certain place behind the two of them without a single pause! The rider's vigilant vision of looking back allowed him to easily catch the slender figure leaping from the shadows and throwing himself into another ruin before Kenneth's quicksilver blade arrived, and... the assassin was so eager to dodge that he had no time to withdraw , the gun and the gun frame smashed into pieces by Kenneth's quicksilver.
"So, get out of the way... out of the way!"
Behind the shattered stained glass of the church, the clouds covering the moon slowly moved away, and the bright silver light fell on the blond-haired and blue-robed magician in front of Weber.The imminent hatred in the other party's dark blue eyes was like a bone-gouging knife, with blood in the coldness-it was something that even facing the two "thiefs" and "robbers" Weber and Sanada Yui had never There was light... The belated Weber subconsciously turned his head and followed Kenneth's line of sight to look in the direction behind him.
"Emiya, Kiritsugu."
Rider's voice rang in the boy's ears, the King of Conquerors raised his big hand, and easily pushed the thin boy behind him.Compared with Weber, Kenneth himself is more threatening; but when it comes to competitors, Weber is the remaining Holy Grail contender... Although it is impossible to confirm who Kenneth was targeting when he discovered this man, Wei Wei Miya Kiritsugu's repeated sneak attacks from behind had already made the rider disgusted to the extreme.
After such a short and quiet few seconds, as if he finally realized the meaninglessness of hiding now, Emiya Kiritsugu stood up from behind the pile of rubble, and brushed off the dirt on his black suit. dust.At this second, even as slow as Weber could notice, those quicksilver magic dresses that were originally protecting Kenneth's body gave out a suppressed and angry tremor.
As if the flames of hatred were burning in his pupils, Kenneth stared at the lone shadow coming out of the darkness, and suddenly thought of something pleasant, and a twist appeared on his originally handsome face. malicious smile.
"Speaking of which, are you the only one coming this time... Emiya Kiritsugu, where's your short-haired female assistant?"
For Kenneth's thoughtless question, Weber was at a loss, but Kenneth stared at the man without blinking as if he refused to give Emiya Kiritsugu a chance to hide, but unfortunately he found nothing.There was no trace of anger, and the black-haired man didn't even change his breathing at all, as if the person Kenneth just mentioned had nothing to do with him.Facing such a naked and provocative question from Kenneth, Emiya Kiritsugu just scanned the distorted face of this famous magician up and down with his ironic gaze, and then raised his hand.
With a "boom", it seemed that some small and square soft box was thrown out by the man, and rolled up and down along the edges and corners on the ground full of burnt ash until it reached Kenneth's feet.Wei Bo squinted his eyes, and subconsciously leaned forward, but was quickly dragged back by the vigilant rider.
"That is, the jewelry box...?"
As the situation in front of him became more and more confused, Weber said in a daze.In contrast, Kenneth just glanced calmly and vigilantly, a gleam of doubt flashed in his blue pupils that were originally stained red with hatred; but at this time, Emiya Kiritsugu's marble-like cold expression Finally a change has taken place.
"Compared to my assistant, Kenneth Archibald...I think you are more curious about the whereabouts of your fiancée, isn't it?"
No one is more proficient than Emiya Kiritsugu in grasping the weakness of people's hearts and using it as an excuse.No matter how strong the power is, as long as a person still has feelings, he will never be an impregnable wall... Seeing the distorted smile on Kenneth's face froze for a moment, it was like a weird music box in the dark As if the clockwork had turned to the end and stopped abruptly, Emiya Kiritsugu's hand behind him shook calmly, and a hand and gun hidden in his sleeve, loaded with his magic dress "Origin Bullet", were released. It slipped into his palm silently.Although Kenneth Archibald's expression at this moment was clearly full of suspicion, sarcasm, and hatred, the fleeting look of expectation had already covered up a lot of his previous despair.
——If that person... r's r is so easy to deal with, that's fine.
The index finger covered with calluses was gently stroking the cold and smooth trigger behind his back, and an untimely thought quickly flashed through Emiya Kiritsugu's mind.The same blue eyes, but this woman Sanada Yuyi...is it true that she is the only opponent who can stand up to Mafia's strongest Vongola X today?No matter what time it is, it is like hard and frozen ice, and the emotions of wavering, despair and hesitation seem to be insulated from her, no matter how much he tries and beats, he will not leak a single flaw.
However, the person he was facing at this moment was not the girl who couldn't see through, but Kenneth Archibald, the person who killed Maiya and indirectly... killed Ellie...
"Why, why don't you open it and take a look." Emiya Kiritsugu's voice echoed in the empty prayer hall, and his footsteps got closer and closer until his entire body was exposed to the moonlight, "As far as I know You know, Mr. Archibald, haven't you always hoped to get your fiancée's approval, so that she would willingly wear your engagement ring on her finger instead of a dispensable pendant?"
"You...why you..."
On the slender and embarrassed face of the blond man, the face that was originally doubtful began to be stained with panic. His face showed a complex expression mixed with desire and fear. On the one hand, he was looking forward to hearing from his loved one. But on the other hand, they are afraid that Solavey will be tortured and even died at the hands of Emiya Kiritsugu... These complex and obvious expressions are changing rapidly on Kenneth's face, even Weber can easily guess to his thoughts.But all of this is not important to a man. What is important is—"What, what is that?! You dirty and lowly magician, you despicable villain who sullied the name of a magician How dare you! What did you do to Suo Lawei?!"
The man's hoarse and urgent voice spread in the stagnant air, it was obviously the look he wanted to see on Emiya Kiritsugu's face a few seconds ago, but now he reversed all this like a clown without hesitation Reserved, exposed to the eyes of the black-haired man.
"What did you do...?"
Staring deeply at the blond man who became irritable and frightened in an instant, the expression on Emiya Kiritsugu's face, together with his voice, was like well water without the slightest fluctuation, and the deep black pupils were like the muzzles of black holes ——
"It's just that I put on a ring for Miss Solavie Sophilia... and I plan to invite Mr. Kenneth, who is her fiancé, to appreciate it."
"Varied……!?"
The fearful guess in his heart was concretized into reality in Emiya Kiritsugu's unhurried words. Kenneth couldn't control his body for a while, he rushed down the steps like the wind, bent down and walked towards The dusty jewelry box on the ground stretched out its hand!And almost at the same time, Emiya Kiritsugu raised his hand and gun that had been hidden behind his back at the same time, aiming directly at the back of the man's defenseless head when he bent down and lowered his head——
There is only one chance.
"boom--!"
"Master Archibald!!!"
(three)
"Creak..." With a soft sound, the rear cover of the black bulletproof jeep was pried open, and the dim light of the street lamp shone in through the open gap. At the same time, Kotomine Kirei's backlit, Can't see the expression on the face.
"Woooo...!"
Lying in the trunk of the jeep was a pale and panic-stricken woman with short rose-colored hair. If Kotomine Kirei remembered correctly, this woman was Kenneth Archibald's fiancée: Solavie Nazelle Sophilia.It's a pity that compared to the glamorous European beauty in the profile photo, the woman in front of her is nothing but a mess: the rose-red dress that was filthy with dirt and insect fluid is covered with ugly wrinkles and insects. There are holes in the mouthparts; the skin that was originally white and smooth like pearls is full of strange green and black wounds, and almost no one is intact; most of the beautiful appearance has been destroyed, and it can still be seen through the thin skin From time to time, slender and multi-legged engraving worms would swim in her body, and whenever this happened, the woman with short rose-colored hair would whimper and let out a sad cry.
I found a good prop... The new actors who can make another big scene in this Holy Grail War and add color to his new script are about to appear, right?Thinking of this in his mind, Kotomine Kirei directly ignored Solavey's pleading eyes, and set his gaze on her crippled right hand that lost her ring finger: Is it just a finger... The degree of stimulation is not enough!
If Kenneth Archibald, that useless man, let Emiya Kiritsugu dictate for his fiancée, but in the end he found that the woman he was thinking of was already dead... Well, although it sounds similar to Kariya Matou The scripts are somewhat similar, but the degree of paranoia and subtle differences in human nature may produce different results... The corners of his lips raised slightly, and under Solavy's terrified expression, Kotomine Kirei raised his eyebrows. On the arm of the Command Spell, the white black key flashed out from his fingertips with a bang, aiming at Suolawei's abdomen and about to stab it—but just when the black key's edge penetrated the clothing and touched the woman's skin At the same moment, his movements suddenly changed direction.
Because at this moment, Suo Lawei felt the cold touch on his abdomen at this moment, and he also... felt it on his neck.
Thinner than the black key but also more slender, even passing through the sound of the wind, it was silent, and the cold killing intent was like a cold fog brewing in the dark night, directly choking Kotomine Kirei's breath!In that very short moment, the agent in black relied entirely on his survival instinct, Hei Jian threw his backhand in the direction of the saber light coming from his side, and the whole person took advantage of the situation and quickly fell to the other side!In this short half-second, although it was just two ordinary movements, it could be said to be the limit of Kotomine Kirei's physical reflexes and explosions!At the moment when Death's breath grazed his neck, the man didn't even dare to think of turning his head to see who it was—although there was no need to look.
Even for Emiya Kiritsugu, it is absolutely impossible for him to be so close to him without realizing it; the person who can do this, in all his cognition, can only be...
The crimson bright blood mist exploded under the hazy light and shadow of the street lamps, pattering down like raindrops on the metal flap of the car trunk, and some scattered blood splashed on the face of the rose-colored short-haired woman in the car trunk On the ground, Suo Lawei's originally pale and begging expression was overwhelmed by fear and panic in an instant!
The position of the main artery between Kotomine Kirei's neck was sliced off by the silver-blue knife light with flesh and blood almost half the size of a palm!Blood gushed out like a fountain, but it took only the time for the man to dodge sideways, and it had already stained half of his dark black priest's robe!Kotomine Kirei couldn't care about anything anymore, the two Command Seals on his wrist instantly disappeared, and in the next second, afterimages of dozens of black keys shot out from between his fingers, the man raised another One hand tightly covered the wound on his neck, and the light green soft halo quickly covered most of his face; while on the other side, facing the black key that was approaching like a torrential rain, that road The ghostly dark green shadow can only temporarily give up and retreat into the shadows.
Injured the aorta, but... not the trachea.
--fortunately.
- Cut, what a pity.
Having made such a judgment at the same moment, Kotomine Kirei and the visitor were thinking about it in their hearts.And behind the two, Suo Lawei, who was still in shock, experienced the process from hope to despair, and then reincarnation from death in just a few seconds. Those big eyes that were terrified had long since lost all charm, just Nervously, he used his eyes to wander back and forth between Kotomine Kirei and the person who had just made his hand at the close of the moment, and kept making "woo hoo" sounds.
Although there was only less time than the blink of an eye, but at that moment just now, she saw something that Kotomine Kirei hadn't seen——
The long dark green hair is like evergreen vine leaves, the depths of the dark blue pupils seem to contain thousands of stars, the silver is brighter than the moonlight, and the blade reflects the cold ice blue streamer, flowing like clouds and flowing water The movement blended all the colors into a picture scroll in one go, and the killing intent was like the icy sea water rushing towards the face, making people shiver!
"...Sanada, Yui."
She heard Kotomine Kirei calling out that name in a low voice, and the girl had no intention of hiding anymore, and walked out boldly.The slender and powerful right hand was raised casually, only to hear a few crisp "ding ding ding", and Yuyi threw the four or five slender black keys she had caught with empty hands before on the ground.
"I'm really sorry... Yanfeng-kun."
Although the sneak attack failed to succeed, the dark green long-haired girl did not show any panic on her face, and her words and expressions were completely relaxed like greeting an old acquaintance. Mr. Yan Feng made a quick and clear decision, I really have neglected to practice, I am ashamed..."
Shi Shiran changed her standing posture, and Youyi shifted her focus calmly, her dark blue eyes narrowed slightly: the previous battle with Archer had consumed her too much, whether it was fire or physical strength , her current state is already at the lowest point... It is very likely that it is not as good as the state she traveled through time and space for the first time.
Unexpectedly, one blow failed to kill an ordinary human like Kotomine Kirei. If the members of the [-]th team knew about it, they would die of laughter... Well, in fact, if Kotomine Kirei is an ordinary person, then The severe injury of the main artery is enough to kill him, but unfortunately he reacted quickly and directly consumed a command spell to use the healing technique-this means that if in the next battle, if she can't This man is completely killed with one blow, and he will use this move to restore his state.
This is very unfavorable for her now.
"Wrong?"
The timely and large amount of magic power brought by the consumption of the command spell closed the man's wound that could be said to be instantly fatal. The light of the healing technique that Kotomine Kirei pressed on the artery in the palm of his hand slowly extinguished. Under the guidance of the skin, a little bit of growth joins to form a new and complete skin.Putting down the left hand that cast the healing technique at will, Kotomine Kirei repeated the word Yui said earlier in a mechanical and questioning tone: "With you now?"
"Sanada Yui, after the battle with Archer, you are now just a little girl who has no strength to stand still."
Looking deeply at the girl in front of him, Kotomine Kirei said firmly in a tone like a verdict: "In your current state, you are not my opponent at all-you should be very clear about it, right? That's why you took such a move." Sneak attack. Otherwise, with your pride and self-esteem, you would never have done such a thing."
"That's not necessarily true." Raising her eyebrows, Yui had an impeccable and perfect smile on her face, "Kotomine Kirei, have you forgotten that this lady's old profession is assassination, and it's only natural for her hands to itch from time to time? .”
"Hmph, are you playing with itchy hands? With your current physical condition?" Totally ignoring Sanada Yui's explanation, Kotomine Kirei just sneered slightly: "But compared to this, I'm more curious about another thing. "
"As an agent, I don't know as much about assassination as the professional Mafia, but even so, I know that for you just now, the best time to do it shouldn't be the moment I do it. It was the moment when I succeeded in killing. To be honest, if you did it at that time, my black key would not have time to block your attack, then you just probably—no, it should be said that you must have successfully killed me."
"Why? Yui Sanada, it's impossible for you not to understand such a simple truth."
"..."
The summer night wind gently passed through a deep night, Kotomine Kirei's voice was extremely clear on the empty street, and in the trunk of the jeep, Suolawei's messy breathing and struggling sounds suddenly seemed to be cut off Quiet.The girl with dark green long hair lowered her head, and it took about three seconds before she raised her face, revealing half of her face hidden in the shadows under the moonlight—the corners of her lips were raised slightly, Yuyi's face His smile seemed to never change.
"Kotomine Kirei, I'm a little surprised that you can say so much in one breath. Are you... curious?"
"People will have things they are interested in, understand their own interests, follow their own hobbies and continue to explore, and only then can they absorb the so-called 'pleasant' fruits from it."
Straightening out his chest, Kotomine Kirei looked at Yui with an expression that didn't look like he was looking at an enemy who had almost killed him just now, but rather a respectful and teaching look.Seeing the man's serious expression of wanting to get an answer, the girl bowed her head and pursed her lips after a while, chuckled lightly and raised her right hand holding the long light:
"Then I won't say anything."
"—As for me, I just like to see you who are curious but can't get the answer, small, impatient, impatient, like, er." ()

Absorbing the last drop of magic power from Matou Kariya's life, the Berserker, who has completely gone berserk under the orders of Kotomine Kirei, has amazing arm strength!With her right hand seriously injured by r and disturbed by her opponent's true identity, Saber couldn't show her strength at all, but only a few short sword confrontations, the golden sword was caught by Berserker, and the indestructible Lake Light Sword The blond girl only felt a light palm in the moment of lightning and flint - the golden sword was picked up by the berserker and flew out like this!

The ground was covered with scorched ruins, and the entire church was like a crumbling dangerous building. Gravel and charred toner would suddenly fall from the high dome and the walls on both sides... Weber swallowed heavily, alert He grabbed the rider's cloak and looked around, only to feel a chill hit his back.

Silently cheering himself up from the bottom of his heart, Wei Bo stepped on a piece of burnt wood that had been burned by the fire as soon as he stretched out his foot. fell on the rider's back.
"..." Feeling the pull from behind, the big red-haired man almost had the urge to turn around and pick up his little r by the waist and walk, "Hey, I said you've seen everything in kid r's lair, and there's more here What--"
"Shh! Shhh! Stupid!!!"
Rider's rough voice echoed in the empty church hall without restraint, and Weber wanted to jump up and cover his mouth for a moment, "Stupid! If other r's can hear it—ahhhhhhh!!! "
Halfway through the warning in his mouth, Weber suddenly felt something cold and slender living thing jumping up his calf!This sudden attack made the trembling boy scream and violently shake his calf, intending to throw the unknown creature out, but the rider grabbed his calf, and he fell to the ground with a "boom" on the floor.In the darkness, the rider sensitively captured the strange magic fluctuations on the young man's body that did not belong to him, and quickly pinched the thing on his fingertips with his eyes and hands!

From a corner in the dark ahead, a distorted voice came from a man who was as arrogant as ever.Weber's movements stiffened reflexively for a second, but after experiencing so many things in this Holy Grail War, he was no longer the boy who trembled when he heard the voice of his former mentor.He raised his head, faced the direction where the voice came from, and tried to gather the magic power around his eyes, and then put on a defensive posture towards the man with his hands behind his back; however, to his surprise, this time, Kenneth did not He didn't respond to what he meant, but just let out a soft chuckle of disdain.
"To be honest, Mr. Weber Velvet, it's really beyond my expectation that a short-sighted and whimsical mediocre person like you can survive the Holy Grail War gathered by famous families until now! Don't put on a ridiculous defensive look, Your little tricks are not even a struggle in front of me, so..."
Kenneth Archibald's arrogant and crazy voice seemed extremely strange in this gloomy darkness; it was different from Kenneth's arrogance and pride when we met last time, it was so scary and somewhat evil, as if The man in front of him seemed to be possessed by r... Wei Bo's back felt chilly, and he clenched his fists. The boy was about to say something, but the rider pulled him away from behind in the next second!And at the same time, a silver light that was so fast that even the afterimage could not be seen clearly brushed against Weber's ear, and slashed towards a certain place behind the two of them without a single pause! The rider's vigilant vision of looking back allowed him to easily catch the slender figure leaping from the shadows and throwing himself into another ruin before Kenneth's quicksilver blade arrived, and... the assassin was so eager to dodge that he had no time to withdraw , the gun and the gun frame smashed into pieces by Kenneth's quicksilver.
"So, get out of the way... out of the way!"
Behind the shattered stained glass of the church, the clouds covering the moon slowly moved away, and the bright silver light fell on the blond-haired and blue-robed magician in front of Weber.The imminent hatred in the other party's dark blue eyes was like a bone-gouging knife, with blood in the coldness-it was something that even facing the two "thiefs" and "robbers" Weber and Sanada Yui had never There was light... The belated Weber subconsciously turned his head and followed Kenneth's line of sight to look in the direction behind him.
"Emiya, Kiritsugu."
Rider's voice rang in the boy's ears, the King of Conquerors raised his big hand, and easily pushed the thin boy behind him.Compared with Weber, Kenneth himself is more threatening; but when it comes to competitors, Weber is the remaining Holy Grail contender... Although it is impossible to confirm who Kenneth was targeting when he discovered this man, Wei Wei Miya Kiritsugu's repeated sneak attacks from behind had already made the rider disgusted to the extreme.
After such a short and quiet few seconds, as if he finally realized the meaninglessness of hiding now, Emiya Kiritsugu stood up from behind the pile of rubble, and brushed off the dirt on his black suit. dust.At this second, even as slow as Weber could notice, those quicksilver magic dresses that were originally protecting Kenneth's body gave out a suppressed and angry tremor.
As if the flames of hatred were burning in his pupils, Kenneth stared at the lone shadow coming out of the darkness, and suddenly thought of something pleasant, and a twist appeared on his originally handsome face. malicious smile.
"Speaking of which, are you the only one coming this time... Emiya Kiritsugu, where's your short-haired female assistant?"
For Kenneth's thoughtless question, Weber was at a loss, but Kenneth stared at the man without blinking as if he refused to give Emiya Kiritsugu a chance to hide, but unfortunately he found nothing.There was no trace of anger, and the black-haired man didn't even change his breathing at all, as if the person Kenneth just mentioned had nothing to do with him.Facing such a naked and provocative question from Kenneth, Emiya Kiritsugu just scanned the distorted face of this famous magician up and down with his ironic gaze, and then raised his hand.
With a "boom", it seemed that some small and square soft box was thrown out by the man, and rolled up and down along the edges and corners on the ground full of burnt ash until it reached Kenneth's feet.Wei Bo squinted his eyes, and subconsciously leaned forward, but was quickly dragged back by the vigilant rider.
"That is, the jewelry box...?"
As the situation in front of him became more and more confused, Weber said in a daze.In contrast, Kenneth just glanced calmly and vigilantly, a gleam of doubt flashed in his blue pupils that were originally stained red with hatred; but at this time, Emiya Kiritsugu's marble-like cold expression Finally a change has taken place.
"Compared to my assistant, Kenneth Archibald...I think you are more curious about the whereabouts of your fiancée, isn't it?"
No one is more proficient than Emiya Kiritsugu in grasping the weakness of people's hearts and using it as an excuse.No matter how strong the power is, as long as a person still has feelings, he will never be an impregnable wall... Seeing the distorted smile on Kenneth's face froze for a moment, it was like a weird music box in the dark As if the clockwork had turned to the end and stopped abruptly, Emiya Kiritsugu's hand behind him shook calmly, and a hand and gun hidden in his sleeve, loaded with his magic dress "Origin Bullet", were released. It slipped into his palm silently.Although Kenneth Archibald's expression at this moment was clearly full of suspicion, sarcasm, and hatred, the fleeting look of expectation had already covered up a lot of his previous despair.
——If that person... r's r is so easy to deal with, that's fine.
The index finger covered with calluses was gently stroking the cold and smooth trigger behind his back, and an untimely thought quickly flashed through Emiya Kiritsugu's mind.The same blue eyes, but this woman Sanada Yuyi...is it true that she is the only opponent who can stand up to Mafia's strongest Vongola X today?No matter what time it is, it is like hard and frozen ice, and the emotions of wavering, despair and hesitation seem to be insulated from her, no matter how much he tries and beats, he will not leak a single flaw.
However, the person he was facing at this moment was not the girl who couldn't see through, but Kenneth Archibald, the person who killed Maiya and indirectly... killed Ellie...
"Why, why don't you open it and take a look." Emiya Kiritsugu's voice echoed in the empty prayer hall, and his footsteps got closer and closer until his entire body was exposed to the moonlight, "As far as I know You know, Mr. Archibald, haven't you always hoped to get your fiancée's approval, so that she would willingly wear your engagement ring on her finger instead of a dispensable pendant?"
"You...why you..."
On the slender and embarrassed face of the blond man, the face that was originally doubtful began to be stained with panic. His face showed a complex expression mixed with desire and fear. On the one hand, he was looking forward to hearing from his loved one. But on the other hand, they are afraid that Solavey will be tortured and even died at the hands of Emiya Kiritsugu... These complex and obvious expressions are changing rapidly on Kenneth's face, even Weber can easily guess to his thoughts.But all of this is not important to a man. What is important is—"What, what is that?! You dirty and lowly magician, you despicable villain who sullied the name of a magician How dare you! What did you do to Suo Lawei?!"
The man's hoarse and urgent voice spread in the stagnant air, it was obviously the look he wanted to see on Emiya Kiritsugu's face a few seconds ago, but now he reversed all this like a clown without hesitation Reserved, exposed to the eyes of the black-haired man.
"What did you do...?"
Staring deeply at the blond man who became irritable and frightened in an instant, the expression on Emiya Kiritsugu's face, together with his voice, was like well water without the slightest fluctuation, and the deep black pupils were like the muzzles of black holes ——
"It's just that I put on a ring for Miss Solavie Sophilia... and I plan to invite Mr. Kenneth, who is her fiancé, to appreciate it."
"Varied……!?"
The fearful guess in his heart was concretized into reality in Emiya Kiritsugu's unhurried words. Kenneth couldn't control his body for a while, he rushed down the steps like the wind, bent down and walked towards The dusty jewelry box on the ground stretched out its hand!And almost at the same time, Emiya Kiritsugu raised his hand and gun that had been hidden behind his back at the same time, aiming directly at the back of the man's defenseless head when he bent down and lowered his head——
There is only one chance.
"boom--!"
"Master Archibald!!!"
(three)
"Creak..." With a soft sound, the rear cover of the black bulletproof jeep was pried open, and the dim light of the street lamp shone in through the open gap. At the same time, Kotomine Kirei's backlit, Can't see the expression on the face.
"Woooo...!"
Lying in the trunk of the jeep was a pale and panic-stricken woman with short rose-colored hair. If Kotomine Kirei remembered correctly, this woman was Kenneth Archibald's fiancée: Solavie Nazelle Sophilia.It's a pity that compared to the glamorous European beauty in the profile photo, the woman in front of her is nothing but a mess: the rose-red dress that was filthy with dirt and insect fluid is covered with ugly wrinkles and insects. There are holes in the mouthparts; the skin that was originally white and smooth like pearls is full of strange green and black wounds, and almost no one is intact; most of the beautiful appearance has been destroyed, and it can still be seen through the thin skin From time to time, slender and multi-legged engraving worms would swim in her body, and whenever this happened, the woman with short rose-colored hair would whimper and let out a sad cry.
I found a good prop... The new actors who can make another big scene in this Holy Grail War and add color to his new script are about to appear, right?Thinking of this in his mind, Kotomine Kirei directly ignored Solavey's pleading eyes, and set his gaze on her crippled right hand that lost her ring finger: Is it just a finger... The degree of stimulation is not enough!
If Kenneth Archibald, that useless man, let Emiya Kiritsugu dictate for his fiancée, but in the end he found that the woman he was thinking of was already dead... Well, although it sounds similar to Kariya Matou The scripts are somewhat similar, but the degree of paranoia and subtle differences in human nature may produce different results... The corners of his lips raised slightly, and under Solavy's terrified expression, Kotomine Kirei raised his eyebrows. On the arm of the Command Spell, the white black key flashed out from his fingertips with a bang, aiming at Suolawei's abdomen and about to stab it—but just when the black key's edge penetrated the clothing and touched the woman's skin At the same moment, his movements suddenly changed direction.
Because at this moment, Suo Lawei felt the cold touch on his abdomen at this moment, and he also... felt it on his neck.
Thinner than the black key but also more slender, even passing through the sound of the wind, it was silent, and the cold killing intent was like a cold fog brewing in the dark night, directly choking Kotomine Kirei's breath!In that very short moment, the agent in black relied entirely on his survival instinct, Hei Jian threw his backhand in the direction of the saber light coming from his side, and the whole person took advantage of the situation and quickly fell to the other side!In this short half-second, although it was just two ordinary movements, it could be said to be the limit of Kotomine Kirei's physical reflexes and explosions!At the moment when Death's breath grazed his neck, the man didn't even dare to think of turning his head to see who it was—although there was no need to look.
Even for Emiya Kiritsugu, it is absolutely impossible for him to be so close to him without realizing it; the person who can do this, in all his cognition, can only be...
The crimson bright blood mist exploded under the hazy light and shadow of the street lamps, pattering down like raindrops on the metal flap of the car trunk, and some scattered blood splashed on the face of the rose-colored short-haired woman in the car trunk On the ground, Suo Lawei's originally pale and begging expression was overwhelmed by fear and panic in an instant!
The position of the main artery between Kotomine Kirei's neck was sliced off by the silver-blue knife light with flesh and blood almost half the size of a palm!Blood gushed out like a fountain, but it took only the time for the man to dodge sideways, and it had already stained half of his dark black priest's robe!Kotomine Kirei couldn't care about anything anymore, the two Command Seals on his wrist instantly disappeared, and in the next second, afterimages of dozens of black keys shot out from between his fingers, the man raised another One hand tightly covered the wound on his neck, and the light green soft halo quickly covered most of his face; while on the other side, facing the black key that was approaching like a torrential rain, that road The ghostly dark green shadow can only temporarily give up and retreat into the shadows.
Injured the aorta, but... not the trachea.
--fortunately.
- Cut, what a pity.
Having made such a judgment at the same moment, Kotomine Kirei and the visitor were thinking about it in their hearts.And behind the two, Suo Lawei, who was still in shock, experienced the process from hope to despair, and then reincarnation from death in just a few seconds. Those big eyes that were terrified had long since lost all charm, just Nervously, he used his eyes to wander back and forth between Kotomine Kirei and the person who had just made his hand at the close of the moment, and kept making "woo hoo" sounds.
Although there was only less time than the blink of an eye, but at that moment just now, she saw something that Kotomine Kirei hadn't seen——
The long dark green hair is like evergreen vine leaves, the depths of the dark blue pupils seem to contain thousands of stars, the silver is brighter than the moonlight, and the blade reflects the cold ice blue streamer, flowing like clouds and flowing water The movement blended all the colors into a picture scroll in one go, and the killing intent was like the icy sea water rushing towards the face, making people shiver!
"...Sanada, Yui."
She heard Kotomine Kirei calling out that name in a low voice, and the girl had no intention of hiding anymore, and walked out boldly.The slender and powerful right hand was raised casually, only to hear a few crisp "ding ding ding", and Yuyi threw the four or five slender black keys she had caught with empty hands before on the ground.
"I'm really sorry... Yanfeng-kun."
Although the sneak attack failed to succeed, the dark green long-haired girl did not show any panic on her face, and her words and expressions were completely relaxed like greeting an old acquaintance. Mr. Yan Feng made a quick and clear decision, I really have neglected to practice, I am ashamed..."
Shi Shiran changed her standing posture, and Youyi shifted her focus calmly, her dark blue eyes narrowed slightly: the previous battle with Archer had consumed her too much, whether it was fire or physical strength , her current state is already at the lowest point... It is very likely that it is not as good as the state she traveled through time and space for the first time.
Unexpectedly, one blow failed to kill an ordinary human like Kotomine Kirei. If the members of the [-]th team knew about it, they would die of laughter... Well, in fact, if Kotomine Kirei is an ordinary person, then The severe injury of the main artery is enough to kill him, but unfortunately he reacted quickly and directly consumed a command spell to use the healing technique-this means that if in the next battle, if she can't This man is completely killed with one blow, and he will use this move to restore his state.
This is very unfavorable for her now.
"Wrong?"
The timely and large amount of magic power brought by the consumption of the command spell closed the man's wound that could be said to be instantly fatal. The light of the healing technique that Kotomine Kirei pressed on the artery in the palm of his hand slowly extinguished. Under the guidance of the skin, a little bit of growth joins to form a new and complete skin.Putting down the left hand that cast the healing technique at will, Kotomine Kirei repeated the word Yui said earlier in a mechanical and questioning tone: "With you now?"
"Sanada Yui, after the battle with Archer, you are now just a little girl who has no strength to stand still."
Looking deeply at the girl in front of him, Kotomine Kirei said firmly in a tone like a verdict: "In your current state, you are not my opponent at all-you should be very clear about it, right? That's why you took such a move." Sneak attack. Otherwise, with your pride and self-esteem, you would never have done such a thing."
"That's not necessarily true." Raising her eyebrows, Yui had an impeccable and perfect smile on her face, "Kotomine Kirei, have you forgotten that this lady's old profession is assassination, and it's only natural for her hands to itch from time to time? .”
"Hmph, are you playing with itchy hands? With your current physical condition?" Totally ignoring Sanada Yui's explanation, Kotomine Kirei just sneered slightly: "But compared to this, I'm more curious about another thing. "
"As an agent, I don't know as much about assassination as the professional Mafia, but even so, I know that for you just now, the best time to do it shouldn't be the moment I do it. It was the moment when I succeeded in killing. To be honest, if you did it at that time, my black key would not have time to block your attack, then you just probably—no, it should be said that you must have successfully killed me."
"Why? Yui Sanada, it's impossible for you not to understand such a simple truth."
"..."
The summer night wind gently passed through a deep night, Kotomine Kirei's voice was extremely clear on the empty street, and in the trunk of the jeep, Suolawei's messy breathing and struggling sounds suddenly seemed to be cut off Quiet.The girl with dark green long hair lowered her head, and it took about three seconds before she raised her face, revealing half of her face hidden in the shadows under the moonlight—the corners of her lips were raised slightly, Yuyi's face His smile seemed to never change.
"Kotomine Kirei, I'm a little surprised that you can say so much in one breath. Are you... curious?"
"People will have things they are interested in, understand their own interests, follow their own hobbies and continue to explore, and only then can they absorb the so-called 'pleasant' fruits from it."
Straightening out his chest, Kotomine Kirei looked at Yui with an expression that didn't look like he was looking at an enemy who had almost killed him just now, but rather a respectful and teaching look.Seeing the man's serious expression of wanting to get an answer, the girl bowed her head and pursed her lips after a while, chuckled lightly and raised her right hand holding the long light:
"Then I won't say anything."
"—As for me, I just like to see you who are curious but can't get the answer, small, impatient, impatient, like, er." ()
