Synopsis: Endless Shuttle

"Roar……"

The giant Gug let out a low whine, and then moved his huge body to guard the door of the stairs.

Rope looked at the clock and found that it was getting late, so he no longer planned to stay.

Only he knew about the alliance with Kariya tonight, and Ropey needed to go back as soon as possible to inform his two Heroic Spirits, so as to ensure a detailed combat strategy.

He cleaned up his image, took off the mask and kept it on his seat, and walked towards the door with integrity.

When he reached the door, Ropey paused and turned his head to instruct the giant Gug.

"By the way, after [-] hours, if there is no movement upstairs, you can go up and help the mother and daughter open the rope and door, and don't hurt them... Can you hear me clearly?"

"Roar!"

The Gug giants responded listlessly. They were originally a race for hunting and killing, and now they were ordered by the superior to protect those 'weak food', which made him feel very unhappy.

However, the loyalty to the old ruler still prevailed. The intelligence of this monster itself is not low, and he knows that if he rejects the favored one, then his group is likely to be wiped out.

Gug giants, even if they are mad, do not like death.

"You guy... already knew to summon the giant spiders of the Rennes Plateau, they are much more restrained than you are."

Rope sighed, turned around and opened the door and walked out.

In the calm space, only the impure giant was left sitting at the entrance of the stairs.

He has been restless for a while, biting the bricks on the floor from time to time, like a stubborn child being grounded.

Otherwise, go and play with the humans above, anyway, I just need to make sure that the two humans don't leave here...

Gug giant thought of this, and also paid substantial actions.He even crawled up from the narrow stairs, ready to go to Tohsaka Aoi and Tohsaka Sakura to play.

Rope didn't know that the giant Gug he summoned would become a nightmare for the mother and daughter for a long time after this time, especially the young Tohsaka Rin.

This situation did not ease until the advent of the Fifth Holy Grail War——

Of course, this is a story.

Chapter [-] Betrayal, stabbed like salt on a wound

After Assassin left the stage, Kotomine Kirei, who was the Master, sought refuge from his father in accordance with the rules of the past, which also meant that his mission was over, and he could take off his burdens.

After crossing the back hall of the service, he pushed open the door of his room, but saw an unexpected guest.

That was his teacher, Tosaka Tokiomi's Servant, Gilgamesh, the oldest king of heroes, but after the night of yesterday, he didn't seem to be in a good mood.

If you were to ask Kotomine Kirei why he knew... the wine bottle fragments scattered on the floor, and the expensive drinks were enough to prove it.

It was originally his own collection, but now it seems that they are used as a substitute by the King of Heroes to disperse his anger at will.

"...Archer, it looks like you're in a bad mood."

"Ah, this king failed last night." Gilgamesh drank the red wine in the goblet in one gulp, and said with a gloomy face.

"No matter what the reason is, it is an indisputable fact that the evil god priest smashed and his two heroic spirits defeated this king."

"It's so strange, will the oldest king of heroes also be defeated?"

Kotomine Kirei bent down and picked up the wreckage ravaged by Gilgamesh.

"Ha, it's just a temporary defeat. If the king refuses to face up to this point, it can only prove that his strength is nothing more than that. If you fail, just kill the person who brought me humiliation next time. It's no big deal. ."

Gilgamesh said indifferently, his ruby-colored eyes swept to Kotomine Kirei's expression.

"Speaking of which, compared to this king, Kirei, you seem to be in a rare mood today."

"Just peace of mind. I'm finally free from the heavy burden."

The Command Spell originally engraved on Kirei's right hand had disappeared.During the battle in Einzbern City last night, his Assassin had been completely wiped out.

Kirei has completely lost his authority as a Master.Although it seems that nothing has changed, as he himself said, now he is truly freed from the responsibilities and obligations of being a Master.Kirei, who is now living in the church, is finally justified.

"Oh?"

Gilgamesh showed a subtle expression, as if he had been given a rare toy.

"The Holy Grail has chosen you, and because of the time, you lost the chance to compete for the almighty wishing machine. Would you feel at ease in the face of such a reality?"

Losing the opportunity to achieve everything should be frustrating.

"No." Kotomine Kirei shook his head. "I originally participated in the Holy Grail War for my teacher. Fulfilling his wish is my wish."

"Do you want to say that you don't have your own desires? Don't laugh at you bastard. People have their own desires before they take care of others. If they don't even have their own desires, they don't deserve to live at all." Gilgamesh faced Kirei. explanation, said disdainfully.

"I said Kirei, do you have your own way of entertainment?"

"...Entertainment? You mean, pleasure?"

Kotomine Kirei thought about it for a while, and rejected it. "Enjoyment is a sin, and as a church clergyman, how can I indulge in it."

"Kirei, enjoyment is not a sin, that is the nature of a human being." Gilgamesh poured Kotomine Kirei a glass of red wine and handed it to him. "Drink and see, what do you taste from the wine."

Yanfeng Kirei took the cup and drank it.

He closed his eyes, savored it for a while, and then said.

"It's just pure wine. Drinking too much will affect the sobriety of the brain... I collect them just to establish an interest for myself."
