People in Type-Moon start from adopting Sakura

In order to further confirm, Kiritsugu Emiya switched to the laser sight again and continued to spy. What he saw in the end was still a clear target emitting a light green light. In his eyes, it was simply a living target.

At this point, Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't help but laugh at the stupidity of these guys.

He prided himself on being a noble mage, completely unwilling to accept the progress of the times, and began to isolate himself from the world. He didn't understand the changes of the times, which is why he exposed such a fatal flaw, and that's how he succeeded! !

As a magician killer, Kiritsugu Emiya naturally would not give up this God-given opportunity. Without any hesitation, he immediately installed a silencer on his sniper rifle and adjusted it, then kept his eyes close to the scope, and finally couldn't wait to pull the trigger.

boom--! !

The bullet cut through the air, making a sharp explosion. At this moment, Emiya Kiritsugu, who was lying on a high place, had already seen the end.

As always, a magician who has not made appropriate preparations in advance will absolutely not be able to withstand the sudden attack of a sniper rifle.

No matter how magical and bizarre a magician's magic is, his body is still just a mortal body. It will bleed, get injured, and even... die.

After doing all this, Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't help but smile. After all, in this way, the extremely difficult blond Lancer below would also be forced to leave the stage because of the loss of his master.

"With this, the Lancer group will be completely eliminated..."

He thought so in his heart, and then prepared to leave here quickly.

"Humph, you fell for such a simple trap? You're such a despicable fellow who only dares to hide in the dark!"

However, after the bullet was fired, what Emiya Kiritsugu heard was not the scream he expected, but a sharp and sarcastic voice that reached his ears. This frightened him so much that he broke out in a cold sweat, because the source of this voice was not from anywhere else, but appeared at his feet...!

But he didn't have time to think about it. In the field of view of the night vision goggles, the figure who was standing on the container and hiding in the dark suddenly exploded when he was hit by the bullet. Then his body expanded like flowing mercury, and then exploded directly. The fragments formed by the explosion turned into countless sharp silver arrows that directly locked onto the direction where the sound had just been made, which was where he was, and then suddenly shot towards him.

Obviously, those flying mercury arrows have locked onto Kiritsugu Emiya's position along the trajectory just now.

——Swish, swish, swish!!!

A series of piercing sounds rang out in his ears, followed by a deadly sense of danger. In an instant, the alarm bells in Emiya Kiritsugu's mind began to ring wildly.

"Inherent time system, triple speed!!"

In this life-or-death moment, Emiya Kiritsugu didn't hesitate at all, directly channeling his magic power to the fullest, activating his Magic Seal. Facing the incoming mercury arrows, he activated his inherent time system at triple speed, then suddenly rolled over, leaping sideways from a height of seven or eight meters just before the attack arrived.

Boom! !

The flesh and blood body fell on the steel container with a dull sound. Kiritsugu Emiya, who had luckily avoided the attack, couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood. Then, bones all over his body were hit hard. For him, this feeling was no different from being hit by a passing car.

"Forehead……"

Under the stimulation of severe pain, he forced himself to cheer up, then dragged his bruised body up from the container and limped away, trying to escape from this place of trouble.

He used his inherent time system to dodge most of the sudden attack just now, but the flying mercury arrows still inevitably pierced his left leg and right arm, which made him grimace and feel unbearable pain in his heart.

Seeing the container overhead, unable to dodge and thus ripped into a sieve by dozens of mercury arrows, he couldn't help but gasp, yet at the same time, he felt a vague sense of relief. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been pierced directly by the watermark like the container, and died on the spot.

"I was fooled!!"

Emiya Kiritsugu, who had just experienced a life-or-death moment, was now exceptionally clear-headed.

How could he not realize that the target just now was just a bait to lure other masters into taking the bait?

He was blinded by the victory in that moment and was too confident, which led to him falling into the trap and paying a heavy price for it.

Feeling the pain all over his body, Emiya Kiritsugu felt a chill in his heart, and then he gritted his teeth and immediately prepared to leave this dangerous place. But the next moment, a figure suddenly appeared below him, making his already uneasy heart fall to the bottom.

"Wow, look what I caught!"

The disdainful and indifferent voice from before once again reached his ears. At this moment, it seemed so harsh in the hazy night.

Chapter 1: Shh, Can We Reconcile? (2/)

[——It’s not that you caught me, but that I let you catch me.]

……

……

"Haha, what a stupid guy."

A sarcastic and cold male voice echoed in the night, and the undisguised malice in it made Emiya Kiritsugu, who had just escaped death, shudder in his heart.

However, Kayneth, who had just arrived at the scene, was in no mood to care about the thoughts of a dying man. He stood not far away with his hands behind his back, watching the limping Emiya Kiritsugu above him with a contemptuous look, as if he were looking at a clown in a circus, full of disdain.

"I'd expected the rural magi outside the Clock Tower to be mostly worthless, but seeing them in person, I didn't expect them to be even more depraved than I imagined. Modern firearms and infrared night vision goggles... Haha, to even use such things at a magic convention. Do you think I've been completely isolated from the outside world after all these years of research? What a short-sighted mediocrity."

As the words fell, the bitter irony contained in them continued to echo in the night sky.

Unlike the truly isolated Atlas Institute and the Wandering Sea, the Clock Tower, one of the three major components of the Magic Association, is a welcoming and all-encompassing venue open to magicians worldwide. Located in the bustling London district of the secular world, the Clock Tower, situated in a key area of the secular world, is naturally aware of external changes and technological developments.

While most older magicians believe that technological advancement is a mistake, rendering many mysteries obsolete and severely hindering the advancement of magic, and therefore detest science and reject modern technology, Kayneth considers such total rejections mediocre. As the leader of the El-Melloi School, he holds a different perspective on technology and the changing times.

It is true that the advancement of science and technology has weakened the mystery of this world, but this is the result of the passing of the Age of Gods and the selection of primates. It can never be changed, and there is no point in lamenting it.

The weak only complain about the environment, while the strong adapt to it...

Therefore, he would also study external scientific theories and inventions regularly, but he did not rely on modern technology. Instead, he drew inspiration from them to improve his magic, so that he could go further in this era.

Therefore, with his intelligence, it was easy for him to counter small things like thermal camouflage and modern ballistic locking.

Originally, he prepared this for his beloved disciple, but he didn't expect to catch someone else, and it happened to be a guy who used modern technology.

He thought about it carefully... and soon guessed the answer.

"Oh, I know who you are now. You're a firearms wielder, a time-honored master, and the descendant of Emiya Norihiko, right? You're also the so-called scum, the magician killer."

Kiritsugu Emiya is a well-known figure in the mystical world. After all, he is a villain who has killed dozens of magicians. His own inherent time system is also worth studying. His father was also a student of the Clock Tower in his early years, and it seems that he is of the same generation as his teacher Ulysses.

Before coming, he asked the intelligence department to collect information about the contestants, including one piece of news that the magician killer Kiritsugu Emiya had recently married into the Einzbern family, so Kenneth was not really surprised to see him here.

Thinking of the bullet that guy had just aimed at him, Kenneth's eyes were filled with a biting chill.

Although, as a legitimate magician, he looked down on these unorthodox methods, he had to admit that this move was indeed powerful. If he hadn't laid the bait beforehand, that bullet would have easily capsized. After all, under such terrifying acceleration, even with the protection of the ceremonial suit, it would have been difficult to deploy in time. If it were any other magician, he might have faced an immediate death.

Thinking of this, Kenneth's eyes became even colder.

You have to know that at first he just came here with the intention of attending a magic exchange meeting. He had no intention of getting serious with these country bumpkins. He even thought about bringing his fiancée to the Far East for a honeymoon.

Who could have imagined someone would resort to such brutal violence on the first night? How could this be some kind of magical exchange meeting where everyone would just stop at a certain point? This was clearly an attempt to kill someone else!

No wonder that kid Luo Wei repeatedly emphasized in the letter: "Don't come to the Far East, don't come here, you will die."

If it weren't for those two traitors, he wouldn't have been able to prepare to this extent. That meant, according to the original plan, with these guys' hands, he might actually die here, right? And if that were the case, then bringing Sora here in the first place... wouldn't that have been like throwing his fiancée into a fire pit?!

Combined with what had just happened, Kenneth immediately realized many problems. Thinking of what he had done before, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

so……

Did that unfilial disciple Luo Wei already know the danger of this Holy Grail War, so he didn't want me to come?

Thinking of this obvious fact, Kenneth's anger towards Luo Wei dissipated a lot for a moment.

Although the boy was a heretic, he still had his teacher in his heart and hadn't completely fallen. It wasn't too late to catch him and re-educate him in time.

However, even though he has calmed down, he still needs to be taught a lesson. In this case, we can just wait until he returns and reduce the punishment.

And now...

Kenneth, realizing that this was not a simple magic ritual, naturally no longer held his previous frivolous attitude.

After all, this is no longer an ordinary magic ritual, and now he must strike hard! !

Realizing this, Kenneth turned his gaze again to Emiya Kiritsugu, who was standing above him with a look of horror, and then made a new move.

At this moment, Emiya Kiritsugu, who was at the top, also saw the true face of the person coming from below and recognized the other party's identity.

With his golden slicked-back hair, a classically aristocratic outfit, and a voice that exuded aristocratic superiority, wasn't this the renowned new Minerals Monarch of the Clock Tower, Kenneth?!

How did I meet this guy? !

Then he began to cry out in his heart: "What bad luck! !"

In the mystical world, being ambushed by a well-prepared monarch is something you can brag about for the rest of your life. But the prerequisite is that you must survive before you can brag about it. So, having already failed, Emiya Kiritsugu chose to escape without hesitation.

He'd spent so much time finding the only chance to save the world. How could he possibly risk his life on such a meaningless duel?! Furthermore, he didn't think he had a chance of defeating a well-prepared monarch head-on with his own strength.

His base still had Stinger RPGs, high-explosive grenades, C4, and even special arrangements made at the US military base. He clearly had so many cards up his sleeve in this Holy Grail War. If he died like this, he wouldn't accept it!

However, Kenneth didn't seem to think so. After all, facing a guy who had just attacked him, there was no way he could be magnanimous and let him go.

"Hmph, want to run away?"

With a cold snort, he flicked his finger, and without mercy, he flung three gemstones—red, yellow, and blue—directly at the fleeing Emiya Kiritsugu. Those three gemstones were high-quality materials he had prepared in advance, the perfect complement to gem magic. Each one was simply beyond the reach of a rural magician (I'm talking about you, Tōsaka Tokiomi).

"It's not that easy to just come and go as you please, right? Since you want to launch a sneak attack, be prepared to pay the price!!"

"You scum of a magician!"

Following his angry roar, a unique chant came out of Kenneth's mouth.

"——Three original stones."

As the incantation concluded, the three gemstones, representing the primary colors of red, yellow, and blue, seemed to come alive the moment they soared into the air, gleaming with a dazzling magical luster. Immediately afterwards, three more dazzling arcs were drawn across the night sky, closing in on him from three different directions, and then, at breakneck speed, they struck directly at Emiya Kiritsugu's position.

At this moment, feeling the three huge magical powers approaching rapidly from behind, Emiya Kiritsugu's brows twitched wildly. He turned his head suddenly, and his eyes suddenly reflected the afterimages of the three primary-colored gems that were still approaching.

"Hush, can we reconcile?"

"Are you kidding me at this moment?"

Kenneth behind him sneered.

Boom——! !

Fierce magic power and explosions covered the entire area.

The night was still long, and while the battles of heroes were certainly exciting, a battle between Masters in a completely unknown place seemed equally impressive.

Chapter 2: Two Lancers? (2/)

When the masters were fighting for their lives, engaging in that fateful battle.

On the other side, under the night sky, the battle between the Holy Sword and the Demonic Spear gradually reached its peak as time passed.

Because they were in the harbor, near the ocean, Finn could harness an inexhaustible supply of water, giving him an absolute advantage. With every move, he manipulated the vast ocean like a mythical sea god, sweeping towards his enemies. Even Artoria couldn't sever the sea with her starlight.

Even the legendary King Arthur felt particularly powerless when facing nature alone.

It's almost time...

After fighting for so long, Finn realized that it was time to end the battle immediately.

Just now, his lord had informed him through the Command Seals that the Einzbern Master behind Saber was indeed a fake. He had caught a big fish and had gained a great advantage. He could kill Saber's real Master soon. He ordered him to hold on with all his strength and never let this Sword Heroic Spirit return to defend. So what he had to do now was to get rid of King Arthur in one go.

Immediately, Finn, who received the order, no longer hid his strength and swung the double-headed gun in his hand, increasing the original several streams of water to dozens. This made the originally suppressed situation completely unbalanced and immediately formed a crushing situation. Artoria alone could not withstand so many water attacks at the same time.

She now finally realized why Lancer chose to fight in the port.

The secluded location was one factor, but more importantly, they had the advantage of being here. A powerful figure capable of controlling water currents, with the sea at his back, was no different from a magician in his workshop. In a place like this, Lancer could unleash his immense power, at least several times greater than normal.

But when she realized the situation, it was obviously too late. At this moment, she had completely fallen into Finn's trap.

The opponent waved his hand, and several whistling waves were directly mobilized from the sea, and then condensed in the air like a water dragon, sweeping towards Artoria, forcing her to retreat again and again, completely controlling the rhythm of the battlefield.

"Irisviel, retreat quickly!"

The situation became increasingly difficult, and Artoria realized that they couldn't continue fighting like this. If they continued to fight against Lancer, they would surely die. So, they had to fight to the death!

Thinking of this, she once again tightly grasped the holy sword in her hand, controlling the green gale to resist the waves while shouting to Irisviel behind her.

Soon, she will release her own Noble Phantasm to break the impasse...

However, because the power of her own Noble Phantasm was too great, if Irisviel continued to stay here, the situation would be very dangerous, so she had to protect Irisviel and let her leave here first.

“But, Saber…”

Hearing this, Irisviel's expression became a little worried.

"Don't worry about me! I have a solution!"

"Okay, fine. You must be careful, Saber."

Seeing Altria's extremely serious expression and hearing her anxious cries, Irisviel knew that even if she continued to stay here, it would be useless. The Command Seals were in Kiritsugu's hands, and she, the fake Master, was unable to provide Saber with any real support. So she nodded solemnly, then turned without hesitation, preparing to leave before the two Heroic Spirits fought their final battle.

"..."

In response, Finn just looked at them coldly and did not stop them. He had long seen that these two were not master and servant, and the message just conveyed by the master also confirmed this. So there was no reason at all to attack that woman.
