Death Maniac

Chapter 336 War Begins (Two Chapters in One)

With three in his right hand and three in his left, Kotomine Kirei held a total of six black keys with blades showing, and galloped forward.

There is no unnecessary nonsense, let alone explain why this battle started.

Whether it's Emiya Kiritsugu or Kotomine Kirei.

With just one sentence of dialogue, the two sides have already understood...

What Holy Grail War, what Servant Heroic Spirits, all of these exist only to destroy the enemies that are currently blocking our eyes.

"Time alter (inherent time control)──double accel (double speed)!"

The reflex speed was faster than that of the brain, and Emiya Kiritsugu subconsciously activated the spell before thinking about it.

The figure pierced through the wind, and the gun in his hand fired continuously. Three bullets were fired in three directions in the shape of a character. The targets were the head and the hands holding the black key.

摪摪摪——!
The black keys spread out, Kotomine Kirei's expression was extremely cold, he swung the six black keys in succession, and when the bullets bounced off, fierce sparks burst out.Emiya Kiritsugu was stunned for a moment by the stunt of blocking bullets with a sword.

However, it is clear that it is also a kind of magic.

Since it's magic...

Emiya Kiritsugu turned on the double blessing again, his figure flitted out like a ghost, at the same time he took out a bullet from his bosom, and stuffed it into the pistol under the cover of his body.

boom--!
Fierce sparks exploded as the bullet bounced off.Next, the black keys that could not withstand too much magic power infusion were all shattered.

However, in the gap between the black keys, a figure suddenly rushed out!

The origin bomb has no effect?

This was beyond Kiritsugu's expectation, the 'origin bullet' fired by the magic gun Contender had no effect.

Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't think of the reason, and Kotomine Kirei had no way of knowing his surprise.Presumably, even Kotomine Kirei didn't expect that the special magic he obtained would inadvertently crack Emiya Kiritsugu's trump card.

Kotomine Kirei was originally not a regular magician, and even the magic circuit was not fully developed.In order to use magic on temporary occasions, under the incredulous gaze of his father Kotomine Risei, he cut off the preparation Command Seal engraved on his arm, and used it as a source of magic power.

In the end, the characteristic of throwing away the Command Seals saved Kotomine Kirei's life.When the spell was activated and the Origin Bullet came into contact with the spell to take effect, the Command Seal that was the source of the magic power had already disappeared from Kirei's wrist.

Emiya Kiritsugu's original plan to knock down the enemy with the first move was completely disrupted, so he had to find another way.

But he didn't think about counterattacking. Although Kirei's attack missed, Kiritsugu could see the power of his kick at a glance.As a boxer, this man's skills are beyond the reach of others. Confronting him in close combat is completely suicidal.

All he can do now is disregarding his own ability to bear, continue to activate the inherent time control, and get out of Kirei's attack range in one go.

If he wanted to win this battle, all he could do was run away, keep running away, and counterattack while taking advantage of the favorable gap.

The tug-of-war on this side has begun, and the battle on the mountain road in front of Yuanzang Mountain has also begun.

Squeak——!
The collision of the gun and the sword drew a series of sparks under the night sky, and the attacks beyond the dynamic vision were pinched at will. The battle between the knight of the gun and the knight of the sword reached its peak in just a few minutes.

摪——!
With a crisp sound far exceeding the previous one, the two figures slid down and returned.

The Knight King girl looked at the spear knight opposite and frowned. Compared with the previous two short confrontations, this time the spear knight was much stronger, even if she knew the other party's real name, even if she had always had some experience with the other party's treasure. be on guard.

But the battle between the two has stalled.

The solid battle armor is condensed into an unparalleled defense, the extremely fast wind structure is super fast and responsive, and the blessing of steel makes the opponent's double guns sharper...

Even the last command spell that the Knight King girl thought was the most useless and was used to boost morale was due to the magician's own vast magic power, which had an unexpected effect, making the pure fighting spirit emanating from the spear knight always The volume is much higher than that of the previous war.

Even the King of Knights couldn't help but feel a little discouraged by this kind of blessing, because she knew that it was absolutely impossible for her master, a magician and killer, to give her such great help.

Or……

The other party didn't take himself as a follower in his heart at all, and acted according to his own thoughts and wishes.

Shaking her head, she straightened her mentality. The golden sword in the hands of the Knight King girl lay across in front of her, and she asked as she watched the haze disappear from her opposite face, leaving only the knight of the spear with pure fighting spirit.

"Did the one named Wu Biao not come?"

"My lord?"

The Knight of the Spear smiled slightly: "Before the expedition, the Lord rewarded me by killing a few bears, but in order to fight with you as soon as possible, so Master and I rushed here after eating. At this time, the Lord is probably still eating. middle."

Hit a few bears...

The Knight King girl's face moved slightly. As far as she knew, in today's era, wild bears are already endangered animals, and they are being protected by humans...

Is such wanton hunting really okay?
Silently slandered for a while, but the Knight King girl smiled wryly. People like herself were afraid of being late, and squeezed in here one by one, but the other side seemed to have no regard for the Holy Grail at all.

They are fighting, and the opposing Master is eating.

Even the followers are one of them watching the excitement, and the other is because of the challenge to themselves. Is the Holy Grail so insignificant in the eyes of these three people?

But the knight king girl didn't know that her thoughts were infinitely close to the truth.

Brother Biao joined the Holy Grail War entirely for the purpose of finding someone to fight with. He still doesn’t know what the Holy Grail is. 'You conjuring me a powerful guy to fight with me'.

As for Medea, she didn't even know what she wanted, so naturally she didn't have that strong desire for the Holy Grail.

And Diarmuid has always regretted not being loyal to the monarch during his lifetime. The only purpose of participating in the Holy Grail War is to fulfill the duties that he failed to complete in the past life in the name of a knight, and to serve a monarch until the end. It is loyal and has no pursuit of the Holy Grail itself. It can be said that the wish has been fulfilled.

When these three wonderful things came together, the others in contrast seemed to be cats that smelled fishy, ​​rushing towards the Holy Grail one by one like crazy.

"At the end of the Holy Grail War, I met Lord Wu Biao, even if it was only for a little more than a day. A master who will never regret, so..."

The red and yellow lights flashed on the double guns in Ludimudo's hands, and the handsome face under the reflection was extremely determined: "Saber, I will do my best in this battle, just for the victory of my lord, I hope you You can also show me your majesty as the King of Knights!!"

"like you……"

The corner of the Knight King girl's mouth curled up into a slight smile, and the gold fight in her hand seemed to break free from some shackles, becoming brighter and sharper.

"... wish!!!"

……

Far away from the battlefield, Irisviel and Weber stood here.

However, the expressions on the faces of the two were quite different. Irisviel looked nervously at the Knight of the Gun and the Knight of the Sword who were shuttling through the forest; The human area, where... is where his king and hero king disappeared.

The battle between the two is going on there, but no matter how big the movement is, it will not come here.

Because that is the Noble Phantasm of the King of Conquerors, or the Inherent Barrier!
Anti-army Noble Phantasm of EX level: AionionHetairoi (Army of the King), an inherent enchantment that summons the subordinates as independent servants to fight against the enemy.

Where they couldn't see, a legion of tens of thousands of people formed.

All members of the legion are genuine heroic spirits, but limited to the ability of the King of Conquerors, all members of the legion have no treasures, but tens of thousands of heroic spirits is also an extremely terrifying number.

There are even sporadic existences of heroic spirits who are stronger than the King of Conquerors himself. Although Iskandar's achievements are great, his personal force is not that good. The king does not need to be the strongest, but he needs to have the loyalty of the strongest... ...benevolent! !

……

The wind was hot and dry, as if to burn everything.

The sky is full of yellow sand, and the color of the sky cannot be seen at all, as if this is a box surrounded by yellow sand.

The desert, the endless desert.

The King of Conquerors, Iskandar, stood on the majestic chariot, holding the great sword high in his hand. Behind him, one, two, three, the number of people gradually increased in the borderline blurred by the desert.

In the end, it turned into an iron-blooded army. Everyone in this army has vivid faces, and it can be seen that they all have their own consciousness, not just mere puppets.

"Look! The oldest 'King of Heroes'!"

Iskandar held up the great sword in his hand, and stood in front of the array, staring at Gilgamesh in the distance with piercing eyes.

"This is my unparalleled army! Even though their bodies are destroyed, their spirits are still summoned. They are my loyal warriors in the legend. My eternal friends who travel through time and space to answer my call."

"They are my treasures! They are the strongest treasures of Iscanal - the army of kings!! They are mine - the way of kings!!""

The sneer at the corner of Gilgamesh's mouth restrained, even if he was arrogant.

He, who is also a king, can't even laugh at the bastard in front of him in terms of "kingdom" at this moment.

The heroes who bet on the king's dream and ride the battlefield with the king.

Loyalty that never ends until death, the King of Conquerors has successfully turned this into an extraordinary Noble Phantasm.

perfect support --

Although it is called a 'Noble Phantasm', it is the bond between the king and his subjects——

Just as the other party said, this is the ironclad proof of kingship! ! !

"Not bad!"

Gilgamesh nodded slightly, looking at the army behind the King of Conquerors, the majesty that truly belonged to the king appeared on his face, instead of the sneer that regarded the other party as a bastard.

"Show yourself to the fullest, King Conqueror. You are a thief worthy of my own hand."

With a smile on his face, Iskandar looked directly at Gilgamesh, but the words in his mouth were directed at the army behind him: "The enemy is an invincible king of heroes, men! Show our strength to the original king. Be overbearing!"

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh- !!"

The ranks of sergeants echoed Iskandar's growls with loud shouts.

Gilgamesh faced the mighty army like a raging sea alone, but he didn't see a trace of panic, just calm and composed.

"Come here, Lord of the Overlord. You will understand what a true king looks like..."

Lord of the Overlord!

This title has proved Gilgamesh's impression of the King of Conquerors.

but……

One king is enough! !
A cheerful smile appeared on Gilgamesh's face. He originally thought that in this kind of farce in the name of war, only the mad dog could make himself fight with all his strength.

Unexpectedly, there is actually a tyrant army worthy of his full strength.

The ruby-like pupils gleamed with bloody joy, and Gilgamesh was very happy. This boring farce became more interesting, didn't it?Just like he let Kotomine Kirei seek pleasure.

The king wants to enjoy all the pleasures in this world.

……

It's still a little bit worse-!
Nutrients are also needed.

It is impossible to go out at all, and it is impossible to go to the longed-for evil.

On Yuanzang Mountain, there is a "hole" that is being continuously impacted, but everyone fighting below has not noticed this scene, or this is the hole on the other side.

Before it opens, the chances of finding the hole is undoubtedly slim.

On the other side of the hole, there is a gloomy world completely filled with black mud.

From the surging black mud, it is said that there is a crime that is enough to make anyone horrified.

All human beings have a sinful side, but human beings have a bad nature, but they all want to be noble and pure in the eyes of others, so they push all the sins to other people.

Even if everyone knows that this can't really make the fact that he has a crime disappear, but he uses it as a comfort in his heart, and copies the crime he has done intact...or framed it on the person who bears it.

Make this bearer a collection of 'all the evils of this world', a dirty collection of all human beings throughout the ages.

Summoned by accident, a heroic spirit who once carried the 'evil of this world'.

Let the evil in this world exist as an invisible curse on this person who has been copied all the evil in his body.

Therefore, the real "evil" is completely separated from the concept, and turned into a substance, which is similar to the evil of black sludge.

……

No one can see, no one can feel...

No one could have imagined that what they have been fighting for has been polluted by the curse called 'sin' and has become the Black Holy Grail!
Although the function of realizing the wish remains the same, the way of realizing the wish has been added with endless malice!

At the foot of the mountain——

The boy put one hand in the pocket of his white coat, flicked his fingers, and the cigarette butt between his two fingers drew an arc in the night.

"Fortunately, I came here after eating, otherwise, in this kind of place, the delicious food would become hard to swallow."

……
-
Well, if there are no accidents, the opening of the Holy Grail will end tomorrow... Well, if there are no accidents...
