"Last night, a meteorite fell in Fuyuki City, leaving a huge crater with a diameter of a thousand meters in the abandoned factory area. Fortunately, the meteorite fell in an uninhabited area, so no casualties were caused..."

Early the next morning, Emiya Kiritsugu watched the serious nonsense morning news on TV and the photo of the huge "crater" from the sky, his brows furrowed, and his heart was extremely heavy.

"In just one night, Saber and Rider were all defeated! This Caster...

In other words, aside from this Caster, the only remaining Servants are Lancer from our side and Berserker from the Matou family.

Unexpectedly, the situation has evolved to this point without even passing the first week..."

Shaking his head, Emiya Kiritsugu turned his head and asked Maiya Kuu, who was beside him:

"How's Ellie doing?"

"The lady's body did not feel any abnormality. Just like last time, the soul of the defeated Servant was intercepted!"

"...is that true..."

After being silent for a while, Kuyu Maiya took the initiative to ask:

"Do you want to take the initiative against Saber and Rider? Although they have lost their Servants, there is no guarantee that they will not rejoin the Holy Grail War by any means."

"...Let's take a look first, if they choose to leave, then they don't have to do it again. After all, the situation is very clear now, and the final victory will only be decided between the three remaining parties, just a few Masters, It's no longer a storm!"

This time, Emiya Kiritsugu did not choose to kill them all as usual.

It's not that he has changed, but the current situation does not allow him to do so.

It is already quite difficult to deal with a Caster who can foul. Emiya Kiritsugu does not want to provoke more enemies for himself - especially that Kenneth, in the battle with him, Emiya Kiritsugu did not have the upper hand at all. , the ability information of one's own side has been known by the other party, and if you rashly do it, you may be killed by it!

Hisagi Maiya did not have any objection to Emiya Kiritsugu's decision.

"Then what should we do next?"

"...Contact the Matou family and invite an alliance!"

Emiya Kiritsugu gritted his teeth and said this answer:

"In order for the Holy Grail War to proceed smoothly, that Caster must be removed first!"

……

"Alliance...with Einzbern..."

Matou Kariya looked at the letter sent by the familiar, but did not make an immediate decision.

It is of course clear at a glance who the alliance Einzbern proposed at this time was aimed at.

Although Zhao Zhe and Matou Kariya have some kind of "relationship", after the last alliance, the friendship between the two has already been used up.

Matou Kariya himself has no psychological burden on being an enemy of Zhao Zhe—it was already said at the end of the covenant that the next time we meet, the two sides will be enemies!

But it wasn't just Zhao Zhe's problem that he hesitated.

Seeing him thinking for a while, he turned his head and asked aside:

"Berserker, no, it should be Lancelot, what do you think? The knight king you are thinking of is over there, whether to ally or not depends on your opinion."

The Knight of the Lake, who had removed the camouflage black mist and took off his helmet, appeared beside Matou Kariya.

Hearing the word "Knight King", a trace of madness appeared in his eyes, but he was quickly suppressed by his own reason.

"Alliance..."

It was still the same voice that forcibly suppressed his emotions:

"No, I'm no longer qualified to fight side by side with my king, all I need is the king's punishment!"

"...But no matter what, you still have to meet your king!"

Matou Kariya looked at this Heroic Spirit who was very similar to him to some extent, and said:

"My wish was fulfilled the moment Tomisaka Tokiomi was defeated, now let me help you fulfill your wish!"

"...Thank you, my Master!"

Lancelot bowed and expressed his sincere thanks to his Master.

……

The meeting place was arranged by Matou Kariya in the forest on the outskirts of the city.

There are a lot of trees to cover here, which can well block the sight of snipers. At the same time, the insects everywhere in the forest are Matou Kariya's natural eyeliner, and all ambush and traps cannot escape his eyes.

——Although he agreed to the invitation to talk with the Lancer camp, but in view of Emiya Kiritsugu's bad reputation, Matou Kariya felt that he should be careful.

And Emiya Kiritsugu, who knew the meeting place, did feel the vigilance of the other party against him, and he could only shake his head and regard this as the price he had to pay for "enforcing justice".

In a slightly empty space in the forest, Emiya Kiritsugu, who was traveling with Irisviel, saw the man who returned to the Matou family a year ago and forcibly seized power from the previous owner.

"Mr. Matou, since you came here as an appointment, it proves that your Matou family is willing to form an alliance with Einzbern, right!"

He said it straight to the point, and didn't intend to go in any circles on the matter.

However, for Emiya Kiritsugu's question, Matou Kariya, who was opposite him, shook his head and gave him a very surprising answer.

"No, it's not me who decides whether to ally or not, but my Servant—"

He turned to his side and said:
