Welcome to Wanjie Tavern

"Yes, according to the information from the familiar, just last night, near the Liudong Temple, the magic power fluctuations of several Servants appeared at the same time. According to the observed information, it probably includes Ruler, respectively, Saber, Assassin, Caster, Rider, and Archer, the six servants."

Sierra, who was standing aside, answered.

As a cyborg of the Einzbern family, Sera, like her good sister Lijielit, followed Illya as a nanny, but unlike Lijielit, Sera Her body is not perfect, she is unable to fight, and spends most of her time cleaning and catering in the castle. Of course, being unable to fight, she also naturally undertakes intelligence collection work.

"Judging from the current information, Saber, Rider, and even Ruler have all stood by Archer's side because of the meeting held by Ruler before. Caster hesitated to be besieged by three servants, and that's why he lost."

"Hey, did big brother even join in?"

Leaning against the side of the bath, Ilya felt the slightly cool touch from her smooth back, which made her body shiver uncontrollably, but fortunately, the temperature in the bath was high enough, and soon , that trace of coolness disappeared.

"Yes, Saber's Master, that student named Shirou Emiya also participated in this battle, but, specifically, he was just captured by Caster using magic, and then rescued by Archer.

Emiya Shirou was only a spectator in the real battle with Caster. "

Sera, who was standing by the side of the bath, reported sternly. To be honest, in the battle last night, Sera did not find anything special about Shirou Emiya who was being watched by his eldest lady.

Uh, being the weakest among the participating Masters, is it considered special?

"It's nothing, it's just that in this way, it will be much more difficult to deal with big brother."

While talking, Illya【-

"After all, a Saber is a bit difficult to deal with, and with Archer who has a high probability of making a move, even a Barserker must be dealt with carefully."

It's not that Illya has no confidence in Barserker, but according to the intelligence, although there was a surprise attack, the battle between Caster, Archer, and Rider was decided within 5 minutes, and Archer has shown Different from the previous battle, the treasure that summoned thunder and lightning to be thrown as a spear, the flame vortex that swept across the entire Liudong Temple like a storm, and the spear in his hand that could easily break through Caster's defense sword.

What exactly is Archer's identity?

Illya has always been very curious. After all, this servant who took off his helmet during the battle, according to his words, he should have the memory of the other party, but why no matter how Illya recalls, there is always There was no appearance of this Archer's face or the appearance of the other party wearing armor.

"However, Mrs. Illya, what Ruler said by eliminating the guy named Gilderley left over from the last Holy Grail War will give you additional Command Seals. We are going to inquire about Gilderrey's information next. ?"

As Illya's nanny, Sera has her own opinions in many aspects compared to Lijie Lite, who lacks some emotion because she was made with Servent as a template, so she took the initiative to mention it at this time. How to deal with Gilder Ray next.

Barserker lost two lives in the previous battle with Archer. Although he recovered one after a few days of rest, whether Archer will fight alone like before is also a question.

The other party has at least five types of treasures and the assistance of other allies, so Sera thinks that it is necessary to consider asking her eldest lady to take Barserker to deal with the guy named Gilderley first, and then, from Ruler took extra Command Seals from his hands.

Even if Ruler is on Archer's side, he can't fail to fulfill his promise, right?

If the other party refuses, maybe he can find a way to contact Lancer to join him, or use the existence of the church to contact the power of the church to attack Archer and others.

"this matter......"

Illya, who was about to say something, suddenly fell silent. Maybe she didn't intend to trouble Gildre at first, but now Sera said so.

Just relying on the Barserker, maybe it does...

"No, Barserker is the strongest!"

Said this sentence in a very positive tone. After hearing what Illya said, Sera also understood that the next thing should not be discussed in this direction.

"Understood, Lord Illya."

While talking, he bent down and bowed, and there was a loud sound of water in the bath. After soaking for a long time, his fair skin revealed a nice pink color.

"Go back, Sierra."

Chapter 230 - The King of Heroes and the Priest

In the Chinatown of Fuyuki City, in a restaurant named [Hongzhou Banquet Hall·Taishan], a man was wearing a black suit with a shining silver cross around his neck, and had a slightly shorter hair. The man with a little black hair was concentrating on the food in front of him.

It was a mapo tofu that shone red.

It may be strange to say so, but it is undeniable that in this restaurant, which is mainly red in layout and decorated with lights, the mapo tofu that has put a lot of chili and peppercorns is indeed shining with a layer of red. Weird red light.

On the steaming tofu, there is a layer of soup mixed with chopped chili and peppercorns. Just looking at it will make your index finger move.

However, not many people can enjoy this delicacy that can go deep into the soul.

"I'm gonna start now."

First, he picked up the chopsticks that were placed next to him, and after hesitating for a moment, he changed to a spoon.

Immediately afterwards, the man named Kotomine Kirei, who couldn't express any expression on his plain face, swallowed the secreted saliva, and then scooped up a large spoon full of it with the delicate porcelain spoon in his hand to mix it with Mapo tofu with thick soup was sent into his mouth.

The aroma of chili, pepper and authentic Sichuan aniseed blooms in the mouth instantly, and the melted fat activates the most primitive demand for food in the human body.

But this was just the beginning, if it was just because of the good taste, then for Kotomine Kirei, this place might just be a pretty good Chinese restaurant.

The teeth carefully chewed every trace of food in the mouth, whether it was tofu or chili and other ingredients, they all chewed and swallowed.

Come, come, this is the feeling!

The tightly closed eyes opened suddenly, and the edges of the whites of the eyes were quickly wrapped in a thin layer of blood.

A thin layer of sweat beads also appeared on his forehead, and his skin, which looked fair at first, was instantly filled with a faint red.

The completely mixed soup and tofu erupted in the mouth, removing the delicious feeling for the first time, and the real spicy taste also spread at this moment.

Kotomine Kirei felt as if his body was burning, he did not put down the spoon in his hand, but turned to his left hand to undo the two buttons on his collar.

A gust of white hot air came out of the tight top, and in the hot air, it seemed that one could still smell the spicy smell.

One mouthful, one mouthful, another mouthful.

The movements of Kotomine Kirei's hands showed no intention of stopping, even though his eyes were reddened and sweat dripping from the flame-like irritating feeling, the spoon in his hand was still slammed into his face one by one. The mapo tofu in the plate was delivered to the mouth.

"Click-"

The spoon and the plate made a crisp sound, and put down the spoon in his hand, Kotomine Kirei looked at the clean plate he had eaten in front of him, and licked his reddened lips with insatiable desire.

For him who can't feel emotions like a normal person, maybe only this hotness reverberating in his body and slightly numb lips can make Kotomine Kirei feel that he is still alive in this world a feeling of.

"Yo, Kirei."

There was some bluffing, but more contemptuous and mocking voices rang in Kotomine Kirei's ears. Kotomine Kirei turned his head and saw the man who had pulled away the chair beside him and sat opposite him.

His blond hair shone brightly under the light, but what he was wearing looked like a gangster squatting at the school gate every day, blackmailing the students.

"Are you still relying on this kind of thing to find pleasure for yourself?"

Although the other party's tone sounded very unhappy, to Kotomine Kirei, it was quite natural, or in other words, Kotomine Kirei would not feel offended or angry because of it.

"Before something more pleasant happens, I have to use this thing to stir my boring heart a little."

"Isn't this a good thing? Well, at least you know how boring it is to wait."

While speaking, he picked up the teacup in front of him, and after drinking the tea in it, the expression on his face was slightly distorted.

"You actually let such inferior tea enter this king's mouth, Kirei, you are really bold."

Faced with this seemingly unreasonable words, Kotomine Kirei's expression did not change much.

"Please forgive me, King of Heroes."

"Hmph, seeing that your attitude is okay, I will forgive you this time for the time being."

The King of Heroes, the servant who came as Archer in the last Holy Grail War, after a series of battles, was finally swallowed by the black mud gushing out of the Holy Grail. With this, the King of Heroes, Gilga Mesh completed the incarnation of the body, and was finally able to remain in this world.

"However, there are quite a lot of bastards popping up from various places recently. Last time, Caster was still alive and mixed with some unsightly bastards..."

While speaking, he raised his eyes, with snake-like glasses, fixedly staring at Kotomine Kirei who was sitting opposite him.

"The church is already checking this matter, but Ruler has not contacted the church so far, so we don't know how to proceed with the specific measures."

Kotomine Kirei is telling the truth. Under normal circumstances, adjudicators who are summoned by the role of Ruler will contact the local church in order to obtain information, but this time Ruler has not contacted the church until now. Contact.

Even during the meeting that night, Kotomine Kirei actually sent someone to invite Ruler, but the other party seemed to be avoiding the church, without even saying hello, and left the port after speaking.

But in this way, Kotomine Kirei couldn't help thinking of the information he had collected.

Archer seems to have made an alliance with Ruler...

"Hmph, I don't care much about those bastards. As a bastard, you must have the consciousness to please me. When facing the king, you will naturally lower your posture, but if there are clown-like characters who intend to anger me, Kirei, this king will naturally not show mercy."

Gilgamesh doesn't care how much the servants have to do this time. For him, everything that happens here is just a drama that pleases him. As the King of Heroes, he just needs to slowly appreciate it. These lowly servants, just give yourself enough interesting performances.

Chapter 230 - Before Night Falls

"call----"

Slowly exhaling a hot breath, sweat slid down Tohsaka Rin's cheeks.

Different from the previous school uniform, or the classic red trench coat and black stockings, the current Tohsaka Rin is more dashing and heroic than his usual self.

"So, Rin, why have you been exercising since morning?"

In the Tohsaka house, Mu Mu, who finally stopped wearing his own armor and his own set of casual clothes, looked at Tohsaka Rin who was lying on the floor and doing push-ups.

"Phew... if you can, can you not talk to me now, Archer?"

It has been a long time since I have done such intense exercise. Even Rin Tosaka, who learned Bajiquan as a child, now feels the muscles on his lower abdomen burning.

"Okay, but if you do this, you may feel the soreness of a large amount of lactic acid secretion in a short period of time."

"As a magician, I have my own way to deal with it."

The clothes on his body were changed into a vest and shorts that focused on exercising, and his hair was tied into a ponytail behind his head. With his arms that had begun to tremble, Rin Tohsaka finished the last movement with a long breath. With Mu's support, he stood up.

"Archer... next, are we going to face that guy called Gildrey?"

While reaching out to tidy up the hair stuck to his temples due to sweat, Tohsaka Rin picked up the water glass prepared on the side, and poured a few mouthfuls into his mouth.

A little sour, this kind of special drink can greatly alleviate the sequelae caused by exercise in Tohsaka Rin's body, and it will not make the girl unable to walk.

"Yes, Rider found the trail left by that guy Gildrey, but rather than saying that we found it, it might be better to say that that guy deliberately exposed himself and told us that he was there."

He handed the towel on the side to Rin Tosaka, and looked at the fit girl in front of him wiping her cheeks and neck that had turned pink from exercise, and Mu Mu shifted her gaze to other places.

The result came from Rider just now. In an abandoned wooden house in the forest near the outskirts of Fuyuki City, the basement there was Gildrey's hiding place.

However, it wasn't that Rdier actively searched for it, but because the opponent actively released his magic power, it attracted Rider's attention.

After rushing to the wooden house, Rider saw Gildrey in a black robe. Not only did ordinary people have no way to get close to this guy because of the smell from his body, even Rider, who is a Servant, had to avoid it .

[I hope you can meet me by the river tonight. 】

Rider knew that this was not meant for herself, but only by herself, Rider was not absolutely sure that she could deal with Gildrey who might be prepared here alone, so Rider just returned quickly and passed this information to Mumu et al.

"So, for tonight's battle, you are doing such an intense exercise now, is it considered a temporary cramming?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I usually keep exercising."

Tohsaka Rin's cheeks, which had turned pink due to exercise, became even redder because of what Mu Mu said, because Tohsaka Rin suddenly remembered that after Archer responded to his call, he would wake up every morning or even at night. Exercising, it seems that I have never done it.

"Let's talk about it first, Archer, I know why you don't take me with you every time you go out, isn't it because magicians are fragile, and magicians will be at a disadvantage in the battle with Servent, or even have no power to fight back. But I'm different from those guys, not only in magic, but also in boxing skills!"

"Uh, Rin, you don't know, you really plan to do it yourself tonight?"

There was a helpless expression on Mu Mu's face, and the things he had been emphasizing for so long, did the young lady of the Yuansaka family not listen at all?

"I've said it all, things like the abyss, you, as a human being..."

"Okay, okay, I know that you can't touch the abyss. The abyss is very contagious. Just being noticed by the abyss may affect your spirit. Why are you acting like an old lady?"

Seeing Mu Mu open his mouth, Tohsaka Rin could probably guess what Mu Mu was going to say next.

It's still the same old way. Mu Mu has always been trying his best to oppose Tosaka Rin's participation in the battle against the abyss as his Master. If this Holy Grail War is still the same as usual, then according to Tosaka Rin's ability, let her and other It is not impossible for the hostile Master to do two tricks, or even use her strengths, to fight hand-to-hand with Caster, who is good at magic.

But the situation is different now. Mumu doesn't want Rin Tosaka to be eroded by the abyss in order to prove himself. Mumu hopes that Rin Tosaka can hide in a safe place and solve the task of the abyss. Give yourself another Servent.

After all, with Saber at the bottom, if you use the holy sword, Mu Mu thinks that the certainty of destroying the abyss should still be quite strong.

"Archer...can't you worry less?"

Tohsaka Rin is a very strong person. She does not object to other people's concern for her, but she is always arranged in a safe place behind by her Servant. As a magician, Tohsaka Rin's self-esteem does not allow her to be like Stay safe in the back like a baby who needs protection all the time.

After all, Tohsaka Rin has never seen what the abyss is, even if Mu Mu keeps emphasizing to her how dangerous this kind of thing is, Tohsaka Rin can't have an accurate understanding of the dangers that may be added.

"Rin, trust me."

"..."

Looking at Mu Mu with a sincere face, Rin Tohsaka finally let out a sigh of relief after being silent for a long time.
