"Kiritsugu!"

Irisviel, who had just arrived, stretched out her hand to support Emiya Kiritsugu, who was out of breath from exhaustion, but Emiya Kiritsugu still chose to sit on the ground to breathe for a while.

Just as Arturia and Diarmuid were confronting each other, Maiya Kuto got out from a gap in the container, looked around vigilantly, and ran towards Emiya Kiritsugu.

Seeing that Kuwon Maiya was about to run in front of Emiya Kiritsugu, a faint blue ghost fire slowly emerged from behind Emiya Kiritsugu, and the jet-black figure wearing a skull mask burst into burning billows. The underworld fire appeared.

Kuon Maiya, who was running, widened her eyes and subconsciously shouted:

"Kiritsugu! Be careful behind you!!"

Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel who were sitting on the ground were startled, turned their heads to look back, and what caught their eyes was the jet-black great sword that was swung down.

"Hand over the head!"

Accompanied by the humming of the old man on the mountain, the light of the knife flashed away like thunder, and a severed head soared into the sky.

The red blood spurted out like a fountain and splashed all over the ground.

Chapter 19 暗杀!

The mountain man's sword accurately slashed across Maiya's neck without hindrance, just when she had just run up to Emiya Kiritsugu and tried to block the knife.

But the old man of the mountain's target was her from the very beginning, no matter if Maiya Kwon would bump into her, or just stopped in place just now.

In short, tonight, the woman named Kuyuan Maiya is doomed to die.

Both the law of cause and effect and the line of fate are very mysterious things.

Where there is a cause, there is an effect, what is sown, what is reaped.

The old man of the mountain didn't know whether there were other different fate lines for the person whose head was beheaded by him, but when the other party made the move to assassinate his contractor, the fate line with countless possibilities had already come to an end.

The ultimate path has been set, and that is the journey to death.

The old man of the mountain didn't care why Kuon Maiya wanted to protect the unknown man in front of him, even if he knew they were together.

If there is a next time, it will be the same as cutting off the head with a sword.

The cause of attacking the contractor has already been determined by the sword he cut out.

As for the reason why the other master was assassinated, it depends on whether the kid who brushes the gun has the ability to end it.

The ringing of the evening bell gives the guidance of who should die under his sword, not all those whose destiny has come will be beheaded by him.

This still depends on cause and effect.

The karma will be settled by whoever, and the old man of the mountain will not interfere in other people's affairs unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Crack!"

The big sword that was still dripping with blood was dropped to the ground by the old man of the mountain.

Kuto Maiya's headless body fell into Emiya Kiritsugu's arms by inertia, and the head fell half a meter away.

The sudden change made Diarmuid and Artoria who were confronting each other unable to react. Emiya Kiritsugu who was sitting on the ground and Irisviel who was squatting beside him also froze with wide-eyed eyes. There.

Apart from most of the drops of blood splashed on the ground when Kuwon Maiya was beheaded, a lot of it fell on Emiya Kiritsugu's raised cheeks.

And now the warm blood that was still gurgling soaked through Emiya Kiritsugu's black suit, and even Irisviel's body was also stained with blood.

The drops of blood on the snow-white winter clothes looked like blooming red flowers, which looked very beautiful but even more desolate.

The figure of the old man of the mountain disappeared quietly, as if he had never been there before, and no one noticed his departure.

Breaking the silence, it was Artoria who responded first.

She was alert to Diarmuid who might attack at any time, and asked aloud:

"Master, and Irisviel, are you alright?"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Emiya Kiritsugu choked with sobs and let out a hoarse growl like a wounded beast, clenched his fists, his knuckles were pinched white, and his nails were deeply embedded in the flesh.

Unstoppable tears overflowed from the man's eyes, he wanted to suppress the feelings he hadn't had for a long time and regain his composure, but found that he couldn't do it at all.

Emiya Kiritsugu originally thought that he would not be so sad, but when the real parting of life and death came, he found that the heart that was already as iron was not as hard as imagined.

Kuon Maiya, a woman, has extraordinary significance to Emiya Kiritsugu, and the emotions contained in it are also very complicated.

Maiya Konon and Kiritsugu Emiya met on a very dangerous battlefield.

At that time, Kuon Maiya was just a fifteen or sixteen-year-old battlefield orphan, and it was Emiya Kiritsugu who picked her up and brought her up.

Later, Maiya Kuto became Emiya Kiritsugu's capable assistant at work, and could even be defined as his lover.

To sum it up in one sentence, Emiya Kiritsugu has a much higher degree of trust in Kuon Maiya than he does in his wife Irisviel.

Only when Kuon Maiya was beside him, Emiya Kiritsugu was truly in a defenseless state, and he could open his heart without any scruples.

And now, Maiya Kuto is dead.

Died right in front of him, was beheaded by 1 cleanly right in front of him, there was no possibility of recovery.

When Emiya Kiritsugu failed in the assassination, he was already psychologically prepared for the revenge he would suffer next, but he still didn't expect it to come so soon and so tragically.

Irisviel patted Emiya Kiritsugu's back with her hands, and silently squatted beside him without speaking.

As the bedside person who has lived together for eight years after marriage, Alice Viel has an extremely deep understanding of Emiya Kiritsugu, and also knows what kind of position Maiya Kuto has in Emiya Kiritsugu.

This man with a firm ideal will not be depressed, but it will take a certain amount of time to recover and continue to struggle in order to realize that ideal.

Diarmuid allowed Artoria to confirm the situation with her Master. Although the anger in his heart was not extinguished, he would not be so impulsive as to violate his own knight philosophy.

"Miss unknown, you also seem to be a follower, so you were the ones who secretly planned to attack the lord just now?"

"It seems that it should be, but I didn't know it before."

Although Arturia didn't know about Emiya Kiritsugu's actions in advance, she guessed the complete story by combining all the situations she saw just now.

Arturia was annoyed by Emiya Kiritsugu's approach, because it was a manifestation of the Master's distrust of her strength.

But the current situation is obviously not the time to care about internal conflicts.

"I can personally apologize to you as a knight, but as a participant in the Holy Grail War, I don't think there is anything wrong with the Master's behavior."

Arturia paused when she said this, her holy blue eyes were full of determination, and she raised the invisible sword.

"Although this is against the spirit of chivalry, it is still in war!"

(Lan Dui, I changed it, the consciousness of being a king is more than the consciousness of being a knight, but the desire to save Britain remains the same)

Seeing Arturia's actions, Diarmuid nodded his head to accept her words, but the matter was not over like this.

"It seems that you are already very clear that the next battle is inevitable, and I must seek justice for my lord! I am a follower of Lancer's job agency, how about your Excellency?"

"Saber."

Arturia's short words made Diarmuid a little surprised. How come there is another swordsman job posting here?

After seeing Diarmuid's eyes, Arturia immediately understood what he had misunderstood.

"Although I don't know who that servant is, I am indeed the Saber in this Holy Grail War."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, you can't back away obediently and let me kill that despicable person, so I have to get rid of you first."

Diarmuid threw the 'Yellow Rose of Destruction' at his feet, held the 'Red Rose of Destruction' in both hands, injected magic power and opened the treasure again.

He no longer wanted to spend time trying to test the depth of the opponent. The Lord might be in danger anytime, anywhere if he was alone in the battlefield, so he had to resolve the battle as quickly as possible.

So go straight ahead and go all out!

Altria, who had been secretly watching the battle between the Mountain Man and Diarmuid just now, naturally would not underestimate him. In terms of martial arts alone, she might not be as good as the spear servant in front of her.

The knight girl took the lead, stepped on the ground with iron boots and rushed up, slashing at Diarmuid with the invisible sword.

"Good come!"

Diarmuid let out a soft cry, and calmly thrust his spear at the opponent's sword.

The tip of the spear precisely landed on the two-handed sword that Artoria slashed down, and with the crackling sound of 'click', a strong wind pressure sprayed out from the place where the weapons intersected.

The golden radiance illuminated the somewhat dark surroundings, and an inch of the blade of a sword that could not be forged by human craftsmen was exposed.

Chapter 20 King Arthur VS The Glorious Appearance

"Wind King's enchantment, was it!?"

Artoria exclaimed in surprise and staggered Diarmuid's spear forcefully, and jumped back a few steps, with a bit of hesitation in her eyes.

"It turns out that the sword is made invisible by gathering the wind with magic power? It's a good idea."

Diarmuid praised it as if appreciative, and then, without giving Artoria any time to think and react, he rushed over while waving the red spear engraved with exquisite runes.

"With such an act, you must have had to hide the sword? But it doesn't matter, I will let it reveal its true form!"

Arturia didn't take the initiative to resist Diarmuid's attack, and she had to be absolutely cautious until she figured out what happened just now.

Relying on her intuition as high as A-level (dumb hair radar), Arturia kept changing her figure in the rain of guns caused by Diarmuid.

The red spear pierced the air and made a screaming sound, chasing Artoria's vigorous figure like a poisonous snake spitting out its core.

Flying sand and rocks, Arturia's precise control of the movement position made the spear brush against the battle skirt and armor on her body many times, without any danger.

"Do you think that you can avoid revealing your real name? It's so naive."

With a flick of his wrist, Diarmuid fired more than a dozen shots in a row, covering Artoria's body, completely sealing her dodging space.

Facing the gun head that was flying towards him quickly, Arturia was forced to use the sword in her hand to stand up and resist.

If not, she might die under Diarmuid's increasingly fast-paced ferocious offensive.

As a result, under Diarmuid's deliberate manipulation, the invisible sword in Artoria's hand was like a girl who had been roughly stripped of her clothes, and was soon fully seen by the other party.

"The blade is about three feet long, the grid is about four inches wide, the blade is about five and a half centimeters wide, and the overall length is about three and a half feet?"

Diarmuid is also an expert at using swords. Although he should have dual swords, it does not mean that he is not familiar with other types of weapons.

Relying on his superb experience in martial arts and the combat intuition that has been tempered to the bone, Diarmuid roughly estimated the various values ​​​​of the sword in Artoria's hand.

"Now I won't be confused by the invisible distance, so be prepared! Saber!"

Seeing Diarmuid rushing over like a wild horse again, Artoria had no choice but to calm down and deal with the attack in front of her with all her strength.

Anyway, from the current point of view, the red spear has no other effects except for dispelling the wind king's barrier, which will not put her at a disadvantage in the battle.

Arturia, who let go of her wild thoughts, perfectly displayed her swordsmanship.

Although the way of sword seems simple and clear, quite open and close, but it is a skill honed bit by bit on the cruel battlefield.

Even though Diarmui tried to attack her vital parts several times, he was blocked back without exception by the impermeable two-handed sword he swung.

Even though Artoria is not Diarmuid's opponent in terms of pure martial arts, she is invincible with her intuition.

"This woman is a skilled Saber, not to be underestimated."

"This man is a Lancer with two brushes. In terms of martial arts, he can even rival Gao Wenqing in a normal state."

During the battle, Diarmuid and Arturia both had a preliminary understanding of the opponent who was fighting in their hearts, and also agreed that the opponent had the qualifications for the first battle.

It can be said that when you meet your opponent, you will meet a good talent.

The knives fired and the guns roared, with murderous aura, and the twinkling figures of the two collided fiercely back and forth like meteors, and the speed even exceeded the speed of sound.

Their agility has at least reached the A-level value, and the fast offensive and defensive battles made Alice Viel, who was staring at the battlefield intently, unable to see anything clearly.

I could only see two balls of light, one golden and one red, running around there, and the sword and magic gun burst into brilliance, accompanied by a deafening sonic boom.

Nearly a tenth of the huge warehouses at the mouth of the Weiyuan River were demolished by the aftermath of the battle, and the goods stored there were also destroyed to pieces.

Emiya Kiritsugu had already stopped whimpering at this time, he held Kuon Maiya's severed head, and wiped the dust on it carefully with his sleeve.

There was a hint of a relieved smile on Kuon Maiya's pretty face.

This was not only because she met Emiya Kiritsugu before she died, but also because she thought that she could rush to the last moment and block the knife with her own life for the opponent, and die without regret.

"Maiya, it's me, I'm sorry for you..."

A wave appeared in Emiya Kiritsugu's indifferent eyes, but soon disappeared again.

"However, it is impossible to avoid sacrifices in this war leading to the relief of all mankind. I, I have already made such psychological preparations."

Emiya Kiritsugu muttered and turned his head to look at Irisviel who was squatting beside him with his hands on his shoulders.
