Crown Dead

The competitor's gun was pointed at the masked man who was still slashing, and he pulled the trigger without any hesitation.

Bah——!

"……what!?"

Emiya Kiritsugu watched helplessly as the origin bullet, which was supposed to be a must hit, unexpectedly hit the chain that suddenly protruded from the masked man's hand for some reason. The path was distorted by the sudden appearance of metal, and the origin bullet just brushed past the mask. Male mask.

click!

Under the shattered mask, the intruder's face was surprisingly young and thin.

"I'm sorry, partner of justice, let's get some sleep."

Emiya Kiritsugu didn't even say a word, he felt a heavy blow on his neck, and his vision was dim.

And when he opened his eyes again, Allie had disappeared.

"Eri—!"

Emiya Kiritsugu anxiously looked for Ari with a loud voice, but like a well-designed signpost, a door just opened wide open.Emiya Kiritsugu found the storage room outside Einzbern Castle along the opened gate.

"—!?"

Emiya Kiritsugu opened the door in a panic, and was completely shocked by what he saw: the whole storage room seemed to be washed by a high-pressure water gun, but the fuel in the water gun was "blood"

And on the few grounds that were not stained with blood, Ai Li was lying there quietly, scarlet liquid flowing out from her chest cavity.

"Ellie!!"

Emiya Kiritsugu ran to Irisviel's side, but luckily the worst situation he had expected did not happen.

Ai Li still has breathing, but the scar on her chest is a bit shocking.

Exactly... what happened?

Xianyu arrived at the room that Illya mentioned, and found the "heart used by ordinary artificial humans" part in the innermost part.

"That's it, the next step is to provide samples for the prototype—"

Xian Yu opened the small white box, which contained an artificial heart and many strange potions.

"Wow... Even if I see this thing, I still feel a little awkward."

Although they often die, it is indeed rare to die with a complete heart collapse.For Xian Yu, it is really not many times to see such a fresh and complete heart.

"Blood dripped on it first, then the tube... anyone?"

While Xianyu was in a hurry, he didn't know what he was agitating for, and at the same time, he noticed that there seemed to be some movement in front of the door.

"Finally repackaged - done!"

Boom! !

Xian Yu put the artificial heart back into the box, and the two bullets hit at almost the same time.

"Well--!"

His shoulder was slightly scratched by one of the bullets, and the guy who can shoot in an old antique castle like Einzbern is only Emiya Kiritsugu that he can think of.

I didn't expect to find her so soon... But it's just right, anyway, I'm going to take the initiative to find Irisviel in a while.

Xianyu ran away along the window, and then hid on the second floor. At the very moment, he summoned the Sky Lock to block Emiya Kiritsugu's origin bullet, and then stunned him, then found Irisviel, and kidnapped her in the love room. A storage room outside Inzbern Castle.

"Huh... They say that the plan can't keep up with the changes, but this time it really didn't work at all."

Xian Yu took off the black windbreaker, and opened the white suitcase again.

"..."

Irisviel just stared at the intruder in front of her without saying a word.Einzbern specialized in teleportation and alchemy, she was not good at fighting, and she was subdued by Xianyu in a few strokes.

"Don't look at me like that... I'm actually doing it for your own good. Although in a sense, it's more for myself."

Xian Yu took out a tube of potion from the white box, and looked at Ai Li with a strange expression.

"Do you know what this thing is? Heh heh, it doesn't matter if you're an artificial human or a 9-year-old legal wife, as long as I get this injection—just kidding, this one is for me. This is the same, and this is the same. .”

Xian Yu took out two tubes of medicine one after another, and Ai Li had no idea what this guy in front of her was going to do, she just instinctively felt fear.

"I have your information, so there is no need to go around in circles. To be honest-I want to deprive you of your [Little Holy Grail] status."

"……what are you saying!?"

Ellie finally couldn't bear to reply to this crazy man.

"In the final analysis, the Little Holy Grail is just your heart, and the body that has been modified countless times is just to make a convenient container for the cup."

"..."

The man in front of him casually revealed the top secret of the Einzbern family.

"I know not only this, but I also know—you have lost this war. Emiya Kiritsugu failed to get the Holy Grail, and you were completely destroyed because of the power of the Lesser Holy Grail. The Holy Grail War ended without a problem, and after ten years Then it started working again. And this time it was chosen as the Lesser Holy Grail container—you don’t need me to tell you who it is.”

"Illya... No, Kiritsugu will win!"

"Unfortunately, he couldn't do it, you couldn't do it, Illya—still couldn't do it."

Alice noticed that when this man said these words, he didn't show any signs of crazy imagination, and that somewhat sad tone, as if he had really witnessed the end of himself, Kiritsugu and Illya.
