Weber naturally gained a lot of confidence and walked into the church without hesitation.

Reaching the innermost part of the church, Weber opened a door and went inside.

The interior is not as sacred and elegant as the exterior, giving people a very simple feeling.

Both the walls and the ceiling were so white they seemed to reflect light.

"Welcome, Lord El-Melloi II."

A young man dressed in a red Catholic robe wore a mature smile.

Although he looks very young, there is a sense of having experienced the vicissitudes of life in his eyes, and looking at him for a long time can even make you feel a little tired.

According to the information Waver received before arriving here, because of the unexpected death of Father Kirei Kotomine of the Holy Church eight years ago, two people were dispatched to this Holy Grail War, one of whom was this person.

It is said that he joined the church decades ago and his name was Amakusa Shiro.

He and the old priest, Risei Kotomine, were merely colleagues.

Although he still looks like a teenager after all these years, it's not difficult to do that with magic, so it's not surprising.

The other person is Kotomine Risei, the old priest who was in charge of the Fourth Holy Grail War.

"Hello, I am Amakusa Shirou, and I serve as the supervisor for this Holy Grail War."

"I see. My name is Weber Velvet. No need for further introductions; I'm sure you already know my information."

Weber replied calmly.

“Yes, you’re right.” The boy nodded, then looked behind Waver and asked, “Aren’t you going to let the Servant materialize?”

Weber smiled upon hearing this.

“Before that, you should perhaps set an example.”

"That's how it should be." The boy nodded in agreement.

"Assassin, materialize."

The next moment, black mist spread out from behind, and then a graceful figure appeared.

She was a stunningly beautiful woman wearing a long dress in dark green and black, exuding a certain decadent atmosphere.

She had pointed ears like those of a fairy from mythology and vertical pupils like a cat, and her long black hair, reaching her hips, reflected the light.

Waver, who saw Assassin appear not far from him, was somewhat surprised that Assassin's presence was so well concealed.

Assassins gain the class skill "Severing Aura" when they are in the real world.

As long as "Severing Aura" is used in a spirit form, it will not be detected by others unless the assassin takes the initiative to attack.

“Since that’s the case, I can’t renege on my promise.” Waver nodded, then said, “You should materialize too, Archer.”

Amidst surging blue light, a black-haired man dressed in magnificent white attire and a blue cloak appeared, exuding a unique elegance in both his posture and demeanor.

Despite his dark skin, this black-haired man possessed a handsome face that was hard to look away from.

While it's not a good decision to have Archer face the enemy at close range, it's the same when the opponent has Assassin facing the enemy head-on.

If everyone is in this situation, Weber doesn't feel too worried.

Moreover, his Assassin is very strong, and Waver, who knows Archer's strength, is confident in this.

The Archer summoned by Weber is none other than Arjuna, the great hero of the ancient Indian epic poem Mahabharata.

Class: Archer

Master: Webber Velvet

Real name: Arjuna

Height: 177cm

Weight: XNUM X kg

Strength: A; Endurance: B; Agility: B; Magic: B; Luck: A++; Noble Phantasm: EX

Class Skills:

"Anti-magic": C "Acting Alone": A "Divinity": B

Inherent skills:

"Clairvoyance": C+ "Magic Release (Flame)": A "Heaven-Sent Hero": A

Possess a treasure:

"Shadow of Destruction": A+ "Roar of the Flame God": A

The Mahabharata is a magnificent and splendid story that brings together various heroes of India, but it is no exaggeration to say that Arjuna is the central figure.

In addition to his excellent basic stats, he also possesses two powerful Noble Phantasms.

They are "Shadow of the Destroyer" and "Roar of the Flame God".

"The Hand of Destruction" is one of the three main deities in Hinduism, and is in charge of destruction.

The weapon given to him by Shiva, the creator of evil.

Although it is called a Noble Phantasm against "humans", it is actually "not to kill all the humans around, but to judge each enemy within range one by one, and if the judgment fails, it will let the other party (be freed)".

Liberation, which is death, is the highest level of divinity, and the greater the chance of being liberated.

Conversely, Servants who are commonly known as anti-heroes have a relatively lower probability of being freed.

"Roar of the Flame God" was given to Arjuna by the fire god Agni. It was originally a flaming bow that humans (the chosen ones) could not use. Normally it was just an ordinary bow, but when the true name was released, it would transform into a cannon wrapped in flames.

Although it lacks a guiding function, Arjuna, being a genius archer, combined with his Clairvoyance, possesses a level of precision almost equivalent to that of a guided missile.

"Then, it's necessary to ask, knowing that we are now 'enemies,' what exactly is your purpose in inviting me here?"

Upon hearing Weber's question, the boy smiled and replied.

"In order to cooperate with a magician like you."

"cooperate?"

Weber was taken aback by his words.

Anyone who talks about cooperation in the Holy Grail War must have something wrong with their head.

Because the Holy Grail is known as the all-powerful wishing cup, no one would be willing to give up the chance to obtain it to someone else.

“I know Mr. Velvet must be a little confused right now, please allow me to explain my plan to you.” The boy in the red priest’s robe looked at Weber with sincerity in his eyes.

"So-called cooperation is nothing more than us exchanging information about other Servants. If we are the last ones left, then we can have the final duel, right?"

"That is indeed a good suggestion."

After a moment's thought, Weber nodded in agreement.

This allows him to obtain information about other Servants and magicians, giving him a greater advantage in every battle.

"In that case, I wish us a pleasant collaboration?" The boy stood up and extended his right hand to Weber.

Weber also extended his right hand and shook hands with him.

"Pleasant to work with."

And so, they reached a cooperation agreement.

“I can sense that Archer is very strong. I’m really glad that you weren’t his first opponents,” the young man said, letting out a soft breath.

“I don’t think your Assassin is much weaker than mine,” Arjuna said calmly, looking at the woman in the long dress.

"Haha, thank you for the compliment." Amakusa Shiro stood up. "Now that we've reached an agreement, we should be the strongest side in this Holy Grail War."

Upon hearing this, Weber gently shook his head.

"No, that's too optimistic."

"Oh? How do you know?" Amakusa Shiro looked at Weber, who had said those words.

"When it comes to the strongest, it has to be that guy named Orihara Shirou..."

"Orihara Shirou? What's so special about him that makes you so wary?" Amakusa Shirou searched his memory after hearing the name, but found no recollection of it.

Weber considered his words for a moment before continuing.

"That happened ten years ago during the Fourth Holy Grail War... That kid named Shirou Orihara initially served as Lancer, but later I don't know what he did, but he managed to make Saber willingly become his Servant. After that, he defeated Archer and Berserker, and in the end, Rider and I also lost to them."

After listening attentively to what Waver had to say, Amakusa Shiro narrowed his eyes, raised his hand to stroke his chin and began to think. Suddenly, he noticed something strange and immediately asked Waver for confirmation.

"Wait...you mean that guy named Orihara Shirou...was just a child back then?"

“That’s right, I specifically checked. He was about eleven or twelve years old at that time, but he disappeared for the past ten years, as if he vanished into thin air. I don’t know where he is now.”

Weber thought for a moment, then answered affirmatively.

"Did he already possess such charisma at that age that even legendary figures from history and mythology would be willing to follow him...?"

Amakusa Shiro murmured to himself, a smile of interest creeping onto his face.

"He seems like an interesting guy. I thought that people like him wouldn't appear in this era. I was too naive."

Amakusa Shiro turned his gaze to the world beyond the church doors and spoke slowly and deliberately, as if in a dream.

"Orihara Shirou... What kind of charm do you possess? I really look forward to meeting you."

After Webber Velvet left, Assassin, who was standing next to Amakusa Shiro, finally spoke.

"Master

"Should we prioritize taking down that magician named Orihara Shirou?"

Amakusa Shiro shook his head slightly upon hearing this.

"No, there's no need to rush. We know nothing about him yet. I need to investigate his background."

Amakusa Shiro walked out of the room inside the church and into the large, empty hall.

He stared blankly at the cross on the pedestal.

"I never imagined that so many years would have passed since I came into this world..."

Even after many years, Amakusa Shiro still remembers that the day he came into this world was not through being summoned.
