infinite death song

"Listen, lovely children, we are going to play a game of hide and seek now. The rules are simple, run as hard as you can, if you are caught by me, there is only one answer."

Stretching out a withered arm from inside the black cassock, he grabbed a child casually.

"Wait, stop, Caster—"

Saber's shout was very close.

But it was too late.

The child's skull exploded, and scattered brains and eyeballs fell from the sky.

It was a scene like a nightmare, and it couldn't be deeply imprinted in the hearts of the other surviving children. It made them scream like crazy, and fled in all directions.

Caster laughed happily, squinting at Saber who was quickly approaching him from behind, licking the brains and blood on his hands, feeling extremely delicious.

"Jeanne, do you feel it? Are you heartbroken by such a painful scene? But it's not enough, it's not enough! It can't compare to the pain and despair I felt when I lost you!"

Caster roared hysterically, screaming desperately here, with his hands open, as if he wanted to spread the darkness he had endured to the world.

"The moment you were executed as a witch, I swore to oppose the so-called gods, desecrate their beliefs, trample on them wantonly, put them in my mouth and bite them! Everything they left in this world destroy!"

The other party's yelling voice really made Saber's hair stand on end.

"To shut up!"

"Haha, Joan of Arc, your eyes are so beautiful when you are angry, and so gentle and kind. Hate me, hate me, re-engrave everything about me in your mind, and never forget it for the rest of your life! Come and stop the hunt, Joan of Arc !"

From Caster's black cassock, a group of black snakes emerged, and the scene of countless snakes circling together rushed towards Joan of Arc.

And he himself didn't fight Saber, directly chasing after the scattered children.

Saber slashed the snakes with all her might, bursting out with magic power, shaking back these filthy and filthy monsters.

The twisted snakes reminded her of the disgusting feeling of being wet with the liquid of Foreigner's summoned creature that night.

"Don't run, Caster!"

Saber defeated the swarm of snakes and immediately followed Caster's footsteps.

Caster easily caught up with a child, and under Saber's angry gaze, the child's body exploded, and what sprayed out from inside was not blood, but a slimy creature like tentacles.

The flesh and blood scattered all over the ground fused with wriggling tentacles, turning into dozens of monsters and surrounding Saber.

These monsters are more powerful than the previous pack of snakes.

They have no limbs, only torsos, connected to countless tentacles, mouthparts are opened at the base of the tentacles, the mouthparts are like the mouth of a shark, the teeth are as sharp and cold as blades, and the terrifying roar that they make makes Saber feel awe-inspiring.

At this time, there was a thick book in Caster's hand. The cover of the book was wet and shone with a strange light. It was a piece of human skin.

With this book as the center, there is a surge of magical power that makes Saber's heart palpitate, and it spreads in all directions.

There is no doubt, this is Caster's Noble Phantasm.

"This is the magic book entrusted to me by my allies. With this book, I obtained the magic to command the demon army. Jeanne, what do you think of my demon army?"

Caster laughed and said, another child was murdered.

"Caster, I don't want to compete with you for the Holy Grail anymore! I'm going to kill you with my own hands!"

Saber instantly released the anger brewing in her chest, making the surrounding monsters start to back away in fear.

Caster was not afraid, but moved with tears in his eyes.

"Ah, God! I have defiled my love, and I have fallen into the quagmire of love from which I cannot extricate myself. I don't need to be rescued, and I don't need to regret it. I have dedicated everything to my favorite saint!"

Caster still used the magic book in his hand with a moving smile.

"Noble, graceful, kind, upright...Saint, punish me, kill me! In front of you, I have no redemption! Only your great brilliance can make me lose everything!"

The mood of fighting with his beloved made him extremely happy.

Be reprimanded, be angry.

So scared, so terrified, but also so moved.

The saint has not changed.

The self who has long been filthy is no longer worthy of standing beside her.

"Save my lost lamb, Holy Maiden!"

Taking these words as a signal, the monsters swarmed towards Saber with a terrifying momentum like an avalanche, full of murderous intent.

In the forest, there was only the roar of the monster, and Caster's wild laughter from despair to joy.

◆

Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald discovered that Caster was going to the territory of the Einzbern forces in Fuyuki City, so he had already made up his mind to take Lancer to the suburban forest of Fuyuki City.

You can get a Command Seal by killing Caster. For Kenneth who has already consumed a Command Seal, this is the key to improving his strength, and it is an important opportunity to improve his strength no matter what.

As for Caster's chaotic words and deeds when fighting Saber, it can be seen that this guy is already in a state of rampage, and he feels much crazier than Berserker.

But it was also Kenneth's timing.

But if he joins forces with Saber to kill Caster, it means that Saber is allied with Lancer, and Emiya Kiritsugu will also get a Command Seal as an assistant.

Kenneth didn't want to share this achievement with others, so he sent Lancer to assist Saber in killing Caster, while he himself went to kill Saber Master.

Even if Saber and Lancer jointly killed Caster, even if the dead Saber Master obtained the Command Seal, it would be meaningless.

This is Kenneth's plan.

This is a daring challenge, but Kenneth has a lot of self-confidence.

Accused by his fiancée Sola of being a coward, Kenneth couldn't let his fiancée know how strong he is without showing his courage.

He wanted his fiancée Sola to take back that humiliation completely.

With his knowledge and intuition, he easily found the multiple barrier centers in the Einzbern position, and used the magic tool to perform precise operations to remove the barriers in front of him.

Kenneth snickered silently, Einzbern's magic is only at this level, and the next defense seems to be very problematic.

Kenneth, who is a first-level lecturer in the Spiritual Science, has such contemptuous confidence.

"Get rid of Saber's group and use this place as a new stronghold."

Although the previous explosion damaged a large number of his magical devices, a few of them were still intact, and among them was the 'gift' of his strongest trump card.

This time, just in case, he also brought this strongest dress.

The large ceramic bottle under the armpit was that. Kenneth put it on the ground, and it sank heavily into the ground.

The bottle, which looks very light, actually weighs 140 kilograms. If it weren't for the lightening technique, I couldn't carry such a heavy object with me.

"Let's boil, my blood!"

Chanting magic words, the sticky stuff inside the bottle overflowed.

It was a metallic liquid that reflected light like a mirror.

It's a lot of mercury.

Like a fully autonomous flexible creature flowing out of the bottle, it became spherical.

This is the dress he is proud of - Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid.

It is the most powerful of all his dresses.

"Self-discipline defense!"

"Self-discipline to find the enemy!"

"Self-discipline attack!"

After releasing three commands in a row, Salsa, the ball of mercury, vibrated.

Wrapping around his feet, following Kenneth's pace, he headed towards the castle.

Kenneth, who has the rare two attributes of 'water' and 'wind', is very good at fluid manipulation magic.

Therefore, he can create his own unique dress, which is quicksilver filled with magic to fight.

Mercury has no fixed form, but it can also shape any state.

For example--

"cut!"

A part of the mercury ball turned into a thin and long ribbon, aiming at the gate of the castle to attack.

The mercury whip was only a few microns thick, and became a razor-sharp mercury whip blade. The extremely hard gate of the ancient castle was easily cut in half, and it crashed toward the inside.

Kenneth entered the castle hall.

The crystal chandelier exudes beautiful brilliance, and the marble floor is polished very smooth without blemishes.

The air was strangely still.

Kenneth took a breath, and shouted to the empty hall with a calm and confident smile:

"Magician of Einzbern, for the Holy Grail we both seek, bet the life and honor of the magi, and meet me face to face."

No one responded.

Kiritsugu in secret only responded to him with two words in his heart - idiot.

Stake the magician's life and honor?

The Holy Grail War is an all-out battle.

So, hit the switch.

The vases on all sides of the hall suddenly burst, and props without the slightest magical power - countless metal marbles flew towards Kenneth.

This is not a magic device, it's just a detonating device, so Kenneth's magic detection can't detect his attack.

The metal marbles were only one or two millimeters long, and there were [-] of them in total, and they rushed towards Kenneth together.

When the metal marble was about to touch Kenneth, his body was suddenly wrapped in a silver sphere.

None of the metal marble rain curtains hit Kenneth, and all bounced back, destroying the facilities in the hall to pieces.

After removing the protective layer of mercury, Kenneth looked at the horrific scene in the hall, and let out a disgusted hum.

"You were the one who blew up my base with a bomb last time. I didn't expect to degenerate to this point. Einzbern's reputation is crying..."

Kenneth sighed more than angry.

"Well, it seems that this is not a duel, but a hunt. Although I don't know where you are, don't try to hide it from my eyes."

The murderous look in Kenneth's eyes made the air even colder.

Kenneth's every move is very clear through the monitor.

When Kiritsugu saw the mercury protective layer that could block more than 2000 metal marbles, he knew that the defensive power of that thing was not trivial.

As exasperating as it was, it had to be admitted that Kenneth was a superb magician.

Kenneth was constantly searching every room in the castle, and Kiritsugu was also analyzing the situation before him, and then he discovered something——

From the keyhole on the door of his room, a drop of mercury like a spider's silk suddenly fell down.

The moment Kiritsugu saw the quicksilver drop, the quicksilver drop stopped falling.

"Damn, it's an automatic search!"

When Kiritsugu yelled these words, a silver metallic light suddenly pierced through under the carpet of the room he was in.

A round plate was cut out in the middle of the room and fell down, followed by silver tentacles stretching up through the round hole, and then transformed into a metal circular platform.

On the platform, Kenneth appeared here with a smile.

Mercury droplets of Moon Spirit Essence floating beside him looked at Kiritsugu with a terrifying murderous look.

"Found you, stinky mouse—"

boom!

Responding to Kenneth, Kiritsugu pulled out the short gun from his waist and fired bullets.

The Yueling marrow liquid that reacted formed a protective film in front of Kenneth, blocking the bullets.

Afterwards, the Yueling marrow liquid changed its form, and flew out two extremely thin mercury whip blades to attack Kiritsugu.

In Kenneth's astonished expression, Kiritsugu easily dodged at a fast speed, making Kenneth realize that Kiritsugu's Taijutsu is very powerful, and it is definitely not a Taijutsu that normal people can display.

"Hunting him!"
