"I didn't expect things to become like this..." Kirei Kotomine clutched his bleeding right arm, glanced at Kiritsugu Emiya who was gradually fading away in front, and spoke. The Servants gathering together... this was something none of the Masters expected.
Even Caster and Lancer, who were originally fighting on the other side, transferred here. The hidden Berserker and Rider also appeared. This was a change completely outside the plan.
Magical energy was constantly being drawn; that was the phenomenon produced after the Servants fought. 'Cannot stay long.' Judging this point, the hiding Kiritsugu Emiya thought so.
Although he injured Kirei Kotomine's right hand, he himself wasn't safe and sound. The bruises all over his body made his body quite painful. 'What on earth happened over there...' He could only vaguely sense that the Servants gathered there, but he still didn't know what exactly happened at the scene.
"Oh my, this is truly a surprising scene." A strange voice came, causing Kirei Kotomine and Kiritsugu Emiya to frown. Looking up, a figure appeared on the street they were on. Kayneth El-Melloi Archibald!
The name of the comer emerged in both minds simultaneously. One of the Lords of the Clock Tower, the collaborator of Lancer's Master in this session.
"Originally, I just wanted Lancer to pursue Caster to lift the magecraft, but I accidentally saw two Masters fighting here." Stepping forward, a slime-like creature followed beside him.
"Now solving you two in one breath, Sola will be much more relaxed." Such a great opportunity, Kayneth as a collaborator certainly wouldn't let it pass. As long as he killed these two, two Servants would lose their Masters and then exit.
"Oh? Want to test our gap?" "After all, just a countryside Magus." "Having no horizon at all." Looking at Kirei Kotomine who took out Black Keys and clamped them between his fingers, Kayneth said coldly.
If he faced the heads of the local Tohsaka family or Matou family, he might still have a little interest. The Kirei Kotomine and Kiritsugu Emiya in front of him, one was just a disciple of the Tohsaka family, and the other was scum among Magi. How could they be his opponents?
Holding such arrogant thoughts, he then issued instructions to "Volumen Hydrargyrum." "!" "!" Seeing that tentacle-like mercury attacking, the two people in different places acted one after another.
'Retreat first.' Holding such thoughts, Kiritsugu had no intention of staying longer. In this situation, it was already very difficult for him to kill Kirei Kotomine, and he still had to confirm the situation of Irisviel and Maiya with his own eyes.
Bang! After Kiritsugu used his time magecraft again to dodge an attack, he took the opportunity to go to the place where the vehicle was hidden, preparing to evacuate. Vroom vroom!! Stepping on the accelerator, he drove the vehicle and rushed towards a certain direction immediately.
"That magecraft... runs quite fast." "Hmph, pity, you can't escape." A bit surprised by the "Time" magecraft Kiritsugu displayed, Kayneth pondered seriously for a while and just let Kiritsugu leave like that.
Did this anomaly in the magic world think he came without doing anything? "Let's start with you first, the watchdog of the Tohsaka family." Looking at Kirei Kotomine blocking the mercury in front, the corners of Kayneth's mouth rose and he spoke.
...
Vroom!! The vehicle was driving fast on the road, but Kiritsugu discovered something wrong. People... no people! He didn't meet anyone along the way driving. Even if the area where Kirei Kotomine lived wasn't a street with heavy traffic, it couldn't be this desolate.
"Roar!" Pitch-black shadows moved quickly on the ground, then the figures of wolves emerged. Familiars! That soaring figure expressed its identity; Kiritsugu raised his gun with one hand and shot without hesitation.
Bang!! The powerful might directly exploded it along with its body; Kiritsugu also knew what Kayneth did. "Did he set up magecraft in this whole area?" "Even wraiths, familiars, and labyrinths are used."
Such a big handwork, it could only be said to indeed fit the means of a Lord of the Clock Tower. Lacking the support of a Servant, this was a big trouble for him.
"Must find the arranged points first..." He fell into a looping labyrinth; if he didn't solve it, he definitely couldn't escape smoothly.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!!! Continuously firing to blow up the incoming wraiths and familiars, Kiritsugu's idea of using a Command Spell also faded. Perhaps this was also an opportunity for him.
...
Clang!! Bang!! Compared to the Masters who also started to clash, the Servants had already started acting on their own. Lancer and Caster. Berserker and Assassin. Rider and Saber.
Except for Archer who stood on the street lamp all along, everyone had clear targets. "You bastard! Unlock this strange magic circle for me quickly!" Manipulating the bramble chains formed by magical energy, Kyoko Sakura chased Jonouchi and shouted angrily.
"With your appearance, how dare I unlock it for you!" Drawing cards to summon new monsters to resist the incoming attacks, Jonouchi retorted. He was really impressed by this little girl; not only was the offensive fierce, but she was also pestering and hard to beat.
That peculiar clone was completely used as a substitute to consume his hand cards and "traps." Bang!! The tachi (long sword) and long sword clashed, producing a pleasant clang.
'Even proficient in swordsmanship... what exactly is he?' Kenshin looked at Berserker holding a tachi in front, becoming even more curious.
He originally thought it was enough that the other party was proficient in greatswords, long spears, heavy axes, and magecraft, but even his swordsmanship was so powerful. Clearly feeling like Japanese-style swordsmanship too... but the school the other party used was one he had never seen before.
But at this moment, the flashing sword energy in front made him raise his sword to block. Tenka Goken (Five Swords of Under Heaven)!
The ground was cut with several gullies; visible blue sword energy swept forward. Compared to other people's struggles, Lelouch as Rider and Artoria as Saber were much calmer.
Originally still guarding, Lelouch looked at Saber who suddenly stopped "going crazy" and was very surprised. He also didn't quite understand what kind of brain circuit this so-called "King of Knights" had. Or rather, he simply couldn't figure out the thinking of women.
But as long as she didn't hinder him, then there was no problem. "Can you tell me?" "Your wish?" But Saber's subsequent words stunned him.
"What does that have to do with you?" "I just want to know... if you are really the King of Britannia, then what wish exactly do you need to realize?"
