My fiancée Yukino

"Try to avoid engaging in combat with Servants during your operations. Of course, it's still unclear whether Rider has been summoned yet. The Matou family's insect magic is quite troublesome. If you encounter an attack from Zouken Matou, try to counter it with fire, and then contact me. Saber and I will arrive as soon as possible."

Rin and Medea nodded, and then the four of them left the Tohsaka residence together.

After splitting into two groups, Luo Bai and Saber walked onto the streets of Fuyuki and headed towards the church where Kirei Kotomine was.

Looking at Saber, who was dressed in casual clothes, Luo Bai brought up the things he hadn't mentioned last night.

"The scabbard was taken from Shirou Emiya, Kiritsugu Emiya's adopted son, Saber. You already know that. How about we go see the child your partner from ten years ago adopted? It's Saturday, he should be home."

After a few seconds of silence, Saber shook her head and said, "No, Master. You said it yourself, Shirou Emiya was rescued by Kiritsugu from the scene after the Holy Grail was destroyed, and then he adopted him. Although I despise what Kiritsugu did during the Holy Grail War, I also know that if he could do those things, he probably wouldn't raise Shirou Emiya to be like himself. Does that Shirou Emiya have any magical talent?"

"Yes, but it seems that in order to prevent him from becoming a magician, Kiritsugu Emiya did not teach him the most suitable magic, so his talent was not discovered. He can only be said to be not even a novice."

“I see. Well, that’s fine too. Being an ordinary person isn’t a bad choice.” Saber remarked. “Besides, if you hadn’t brought me the scabbard, Master, I would most likely have been summoned by him. In that case, Kiritsugu’s adopted son would have been in real danger during the Holy Grail War.”

Luo Bai nodded and said, "She is not a traditional magician, her talent has not been discovered, her magical power is limited, and she has no combat experience. In every respect, she would not be a qualified Master. Moreover, because of these factors, Saber, your own strength will be greatly limited after you are summoned. I estimate that you will not be able to properly unleash your Noble Phantasm, making it even more difficult for you to win."

Honestly, in the original work, if it weren't for Rin's presence and their alliance, the combination of Emiya Shirou and Saber really wouldn't have lasted until the end.

Even though the Fifth Holy Grail War is a joke compared to the Fourth Holy Grail War, the strength of the Servants is still there. Even Lancer Inugami is not an easy character to deal with, and the same goes for Rider.

And needless to say, Berserker Hercules and Archer Gilgamesh are even more formidable.

That's how it is in the original work; Saber simply can't properly become a spirit, and she has to rely on inefficient methods like sleep to recover her magic power.

But now, all of these disadvantages no longer exist.

Saber's magical power is abundant enough to allow her to move around at any time of day, and she doesn't need to be careful when releasing her Noble Phantasm; she can use it whenever she wants when it's crucial.

Including one's own basic stats as a Servant, which can be greatly improved with the support of an excellent Master.

Among the Servants of the Fifth Holy Grail War, even the strongest Berserker besides Gilgamesh, Saber was not afraid of him at all.

Since she didn't need to worry about her strength, Saber was quite relaxed walking down the street.

However, after seeing a newly opened

After passing the croquette shop, I was almost unable to walk any further.

Well, only about ten minutes have passed since I finished breakfast.

However, Luo Bai did not hesitate and went straight to buy two croquettes, one for himself and one for Saber.

"We still have plenty of time, so let's take a stroll around and buy some delicious food to try."

With a freshly baked croquette in her mouth, Saber nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, we do need to replenish our energy before the battle! But, is the Holy Grail War really going to end in one day?"

Luo Bai smiled and said, "I'm mainly worried that things might get complicated if we delay. Besides, our goal isn't to defeat all the Servants, but to destroy the Holy Grail system. That's the most important thing. We need to end the Holy Grail War at its root. Otherwise, it would be useless to defeat all the other Servants. At that point, at least you, Saber, Caster, and Berserker would be left, making a total of three Servants. It would just be a waste of time and energy."

Saber nodded thoughtfully and finished the croquette in a few bites.

"Then let's hurry to the church, but I don't know if Gilgamesh is there."

Twenty minutes later, Luo Bai and Saber arrived at the church where Kirei Kotomine was.

In the past two days, Kirei Kotomine has learned that Rin has made a contract with Caster, but he is unaware of the existence of Luo Bai. He is still waiting for all the Masters and Servants to appear.

As a result, without his knowledge, three groups of Masters and Servants had already formed an alliance, and a fourth group is very likely to emerge next.

However, before he could discover these things, he was confronted by Luo Bai and Saber.

Upon seeing the two appear in the church, Kirei Kotomine remained calm and smiled as he looked at Luo Bai, saying, "I've never seen a magician like you before. Are you from the Mage's Association? Or are you a magician from some organization I don't know? To be able to summon Saber, you must be a very powerful magician."

Looking at the cheerful priest, Luo Bai smiled and said, "I'm just here to participate in the Holy Grail War, not for a blind date. There's no need to tell me my personal information. I just want to know, how long until the Holy Grail War begins?"

Kirei Kotomine paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Indeed, if you do not wish to disclose this information, that is fine. Currently, there are four Masters, including yourself, and the fifth arrived in Fuyuki today and will soon begin the Servant summoning."

Four?

Luo Bai thought for a moment. He was alone, and then it should be Rin, Illya, and Sakura. Kirei Kotomine and Gilgamesh were considered outside the rules.

The fifth Master mentioned by the other party should be Lancer's original Master, Bazett.

Thinking of this, after confirming that Gilgamesh was not present in the church, Luo Bai looked at Kirei Kotomine and said, "Rin went to find her sister. I came here today not only to find out about the Master's situation, but also to take you there. Are you ready, Mr. Kirei Kotomine, the master-killer?"

Kirei Kotomine's expression instantly turned serious, and black keys appeared in his hands. But the next second, Saber, now in armor, appeared in front of him, her knight's sword, gleaming with golden light, making no attempt to conceal its power, and slashed directly at him.

In just two moves, blood splattered as Kirei Kotomine's right arm was pierced, directly damaging the upper part of the Command Seals.

Before he could figure out how to escape, Luo Bai teleported to his left, and two ice blades pierced his hands and feet, freezing them completely.

As an agent, Kirei Kotomine may be strong, but compared to a Servant, especially a fully-powered Saber blessed by Rhodes Island, he is no match.

Volume 1: Chapter 590 Rin's Revenge (2/2)

After Kirei Kotomine was captured, Luo Bai and Saber took him back to the Tohsaka residence.

Throughout the journey, Kirei Kotomine remained conscious despite being unable to move or speak.

He tried to activate the Command Seal on his right arm, but failed. The Command Seal was still there, but he couldn't activate it with his own thoughts, which puzzled Kirei Kotomine greatly.

Moreover, not only are he unable to use Command Seals, but he also can't use magic. Right now, he's just an ordinary person who's been controlled and has no power to resist.

This made Kirei Kotomine even more puzzled about Luo Bai's identity.

Such abilities shouldn't remain unknown, and given that she's allied with Rin, they must have known each other for quite some time; she should have been able to discover it herself.

Looking at Kirei Kotomine, who was lying on the ground with his gaze fixed on his right arm, Luo Bai said, "You can't figure out why the Command Seals failed, right? To be honest, I was also surprised. I didn't expect my ice ability to seal the Command Seals. Although the sealing time is limited, it's enough for now."

After his battle with Thor, Luo Bai gained a deeper understanding of his own abilities.

For example, ice abilities can not only freeze objects, but also seal the flow of magic and energy within living organisms.

When facing Thor, Luo Bai used his ice abilities to briefly freeze her magic for three seconds.

After all, she is the daughter of the Emperor of the End. Three seconds is already a very good result. Moreover, Luo Bai also used this short time to give Thor a strong counterattack.

As for Kirei Kotomine, not to brag, sealing his magic for an hour or two is no problem.

Upon hearing Luo Bai's words, Kirei Kotomine also gave up using Command Seals and waited quietly.

He also knew what he was about to face.

Half an hour later, Luo Bai and Saber suddenly felt a burst of magical energy and looked in the direction of the Matou family.

Saber frowned and asked, "Master, is everything alright?"

Just after asking the question, Luo Bai's phone rang. It was Lin calling.

As soon as I pressed the answer button, Rin's voice came through.

"Luo-kun, I've got this sorted out. I used all the magic gems I made last night, and with the combined power of Illya and Berserker, even if Zouken Matou doesn't die, he won't be able to cause us any trouble for a while. I'll bring Sakura back right now."

Hearing Rin's words, Luo Bai was relieved and said with a smile, "That's good. Come back quickly. I've also captured Kirei Kotomine and brought him back now."

Has Kirei Kotomine been caught?

Rin's excitement grew even stronger.

"I understand, I'll be right back."

After hanging up the phone, Rin looked at her younger sister beside her. "Let's go home. Medea, thank you for your help."

Medea nodded, used her power to take everyone away from the Matou family and quickly returned to the Tohsaka residence.

After everyone left, the ruins of the Matou family's residence slowly began to loosen, and something was trying to escape.

Two minutes later, Medea led everyone back to the Tohsaka residence.

Luo Bai noticed that besides Sakura with her long purple hair, there was also a tall servant wearing an eyepatch by her side.

It was Rider Medusa.

Despite being adopted into the Matou family and suffering inhumane treatment, Sakura still has deep feelings for her older sister Rin, as evidenced by the red hair tie that Rin made for her.

Returning to the Tohsaka residence, which she hadn't set foot in for ten years, Sakura's expression was somewhat wistful. After a moment of stunned silence, she looked towards...

Kirei Kotomine lay frozen on the ground, unable to move.

"Did he kill my father... my father?"

I don't know how Rin managed to get Sakura to call Tokiomi Tohsaka "father" again.

Leaving Kirei Kotomine to the sisters, Luo Bai brought Saber to Medea's side and quietly asked his question.

Medea chuckled, "Of course it was a genuine expression of emotion. This is a very useful tactic. This child named Sakura has deep feelings for Rin and quickly agreed to Rin's proposal. Then we destroyed the Matou family and came over together."

Luo Bai suddenly realized.

In the original work, Rin did not do this at first, so when she was face to face with Sakura, they were more like ordinary upperclassmen and lowerclassmen.

However, now, due to different developments, Rin has chosen a different approach to deal with Sakura, and has succeeded.

Rin has now arrived in front of Kirei Kotomine and taken out the Mystic Code sword AZOTH that Kirei Kotomine gave her.

"Kirei Kotomine, you have such a twisted sense of humor, actually giving the dagger that killed my father to my daughter."

Kirei Kotomine's mouth had been unsealed by Luo Bai, and he could speak. He looked at Rin, who had a cold expression, and said, "Hehehe, to be honest, I didn't expect to take that step. But after I took action, the feeling was something I will never forget."

Kirei Kotomine's undisguised expression of pleasure disgusted Rin, and Sakura, standing beside him, also frowned at him with displeasure.

Holding the Azoth sword, Rin crouched down, her eyes fixed on Kirei Kotomine.

"Feeling good, huh? But you have no future. Whether it's you, Gilgamesh, or the Holy Grail War, we will destroy them all. These things shouldn't exist. And you, Kirei Kotomine, you're the first!"

After saying that, he gripped the dagger and plunged it into Kirei Kotomine's heart without hesitation.

Kirei Kotomine, who had survived four wars, was already dead. He was sustained by the magic of the Holy Grail, so he shouldn't have been so easy to kill.

However, Kirei Kotomine's physical body and magical power are currently sealed by Rabo, and his connection with the Holy Grail is intermittent.

In this state, the AZOTH sword pierced through Kirei Kotomine, and Rin's reckless burst of magical power caused Kirei's body to begin to collapse.

"cough!!!"

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Kirei Kotomine looked at Rin, whose face was filled with hatred, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Hahaha, what a nice expression, Rin. It's just a pity that you two alone can't end the Holy Grail War!"

"Your words don't count. We can definitely win because we possess power you can't even imagine!"

After she finished speaking, Rin saw Kirei Kotomine's expression stiffen, and knew that her revenge had succeeded.

Releasing the AZOTH sword and taking a deep breath, Rin took out a gem from her pocket and set fire to Kirei Kotomine's corpse, burning it to ashes in just a few seconds.

Seeing Rin standing still without moving, Luo Bai did not choose to comfort her, but instead turned to look at the sky.

A golden, shimmering voice had already appeared here.

Moreover, not only that, a strange magical fluctuation began to emerge from the ground and the sky, permeating the world, causing Luo Bai's expression to become serious.

Volume 1: Chapter 591 Dealing with Gilgamesh (1/2)

As a magician from the Age of Gods, Medea also sensed that something was wrong.

"The magical elements in the air are undergoing changes I don't understand. If this continues, many spells will become ineffective, and even the rules themselves will change. What is happening?"

Unlike Medea's confusion, Luo Bai already understood.

Human reason is burned away.

So this world is indeed connected to FGO? So my arrival here was also a choice made by the Counter Force? To give humanity more hope for its continuation?

Without much thought, Luo Bai said to Rin behind him, "Rin, take the others and leave. This world is about to be destroyed."

"Wait, could it really be true? The burning of humanity or something?"

Luo Bai said seriously, "This is the only explanation. I'll go investigate with Saber. If it's not that, then we have a solution. You can come back then. Okay, listen to me!"

Rin gritted her teeth, nodded in agreement, and then took out the time travel device she had obtained from Mato Mokuzu.

Just as she was about to press it, she looked at Medea beside her.

"Wait, can the Servants come with us? Or will they return to Valhalla?"

"Feel your Command Seals, Rin."

Medea's voice came from beside her. Rin looked at her right hand and saw that the Command Seal on the back of her hand was emitting an unusual light.

Moreover, not only Rin herself, but also the Command Seals on Sakura, Illya, and Luo Bai's hands were radiating light.

"At this time?"

Upon noticing the extra item in the Command Seals, Rin paused for a moment before realizing what was happening. She immediately activated the teleportation device and ran inside with the others.
