"Matou Zouken has been killed by Caster and her Master."
Kotomine Kirei stood in front of the magic communication device and reported what happened in the Matou family mansion last night.
"Kill Matou Zouken? Why? Is he the last Master who never showed up?"
Tokiomi Tosaka was stunned for a moment, then touched his chin with a thoughtful expression.
As the manager of the Fuyuki City Magic Association, he knew very well that the Matou family would definitely send someone to participate in this Holy Grail War, but he was not sure exactly who it would be.
After all, as the nominal head of the family, Tsuruno obviously does not have any magic talent, which is almost an open secret in the magic circle.
Kariya was unwilling to become a magician very early and chose to run away from home.
As for the next generation of Shinji, Sakura is simply not suitable because she is too young, so in the eyes of Tokiomi Tosaka, only Zouken is the most suitable.
Kotomine Kirei shook his head expressionlessly: "No, the master of the last Servant Berserker is Matou Kariya. He teamed up with Caster to kill Zouken and now he has completely left the Matou family with Sakura."
"What? It's Kariya!"
Tosaka Tokiomi was obviously surprised.
Because of his wife's relationship, he knew this young man fairly well and understood that he didn't like magic at all, and even had an inexplicable aversion to magic.
This means that Matou Kariya has not received strict and systematic magic education since he was a child.
Under normal circumstances, if you want to train such a person to become a qualified Master, you need to invest at least several years or even more than ten years.
But as far as he knew, Kariya returned to the family a year ago for unknown reasons.
Could it be that the Matou family possesses some secret technique that they don't know, and can they train a qualified magician and master in a short time?
Why did Kariya unite with outsiders to kill Zang Yan who had cultivated him?
What happened between the two of them?
Most importantly, does this mean that the masters of Berserker and Caster will join forces to form a strong alliance?
If this is the case, then the advantage that we have finally established will be greatly weakened.
After all, there is a fundamental difference between three versus one and three versus two.
What's more, Assassin is not a servant suitable for frontal combat.
After thinking for a long time, Tokiomi Tosaka raised his head and continued to ask: "What are Caster and her Master doing?"
"Since last night, Caster and Sakura have been wandering aimlessly on the streets, shopping, playing, and eating randomly. In just a few hours, they have spent almost tens of millions. Her Master has always followed
Matou Kariya stays together at night."
Kotomine Kirei spoke out what he observed without thinking.
In fact, this is why Tokiomi Tohsaka deliberately arranged for him to leave the show from the beginning, and then ordered him to hide in secret to collect intelligence and assassinate the Master.
From another perspective, it may not be a textbook-level application of Assassin.
"You mean... Caster and her master are separated? Are you deliberately trying to lure others into attacking?"
Tosaka Tokiomi narrowed his eyes with a look of caution.
Because normally, the master of the Holy Grail War will not let his servants stay too far away from him.
Otherwise, once you are attacked by other followers, you must consume a command spell to summon your own followers to your side.
There are only three such opportunities in total, and they will never be used lightly unless absolutely necessary.
Kotomine Kirei thought for a moment and quickly replied: "I think it's more like confidence in my own strength and trust in Berserker's ability. After all, so far we have no idea about the ability and identity of the last servant.
Known."
"Can you find an opportunity to try to assassinate Caster's master? It doesn't matter whether you can succeed or not, as long as you can get some information about Berserker."
Tokiomi Tosaka quickly made his own judgment.
He never fights an unprepared battle, and he will not take action easily without knowing the strength of the opponent's servants.
"It's okay, but I need help. Maybe you can inform Kenneth and let Lancer attack together. Otherwise, it will be difficult for Assassin alone to withstand Berserker's violent attack."
Kotomine Kirei made a request very calmly.
He finally figured out that the servant he summoned in this Holy Grail War, Hassan Sabah, was definitely the weakest one in a frontal battle. It could even be said that he was completely defeated.
Tokiomi Tosaka nodded without thinking: "No problem, I will find a way to get Kenneth to cooperate, whether he is willing or not. In short, you must be careful. Because apart from this pair, Einzbern
The family and the magician-killer Emiya Kiritsugu hired by them are also objects of attention."
"clear!"
Kotomine Kirei put one hand on his chest and bowed slightly, then turned around and returned to his small room in the church.
The moment he crossed the threshold with his front feet, he saw Gilgamesh with short blond hair, wearing a T-shirt and casual pants, lying on the sofa, drinking red wine in a very leisurely manner.
From a distance, he looks like an idle playboy, not the oldest heroic king in human history.
"Archer?"
Kotomine Kirei, whose facial expression never changed much, was obviously very surprised.
After all, although the two of them belonged to the same camp, he had never had any conversation with each other. The only contact he had had was when he sent Assassin to pretend to invade the Tosaka family residence last time.
What's more, he has long known that the "uncle" in front of him is arrogant, conceited, and arrogant, and he has no idea why he came to him.
And from the empty wine bottles scattered on the ground, it is easy to see that Gilgamesh has been here for a while.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Although the quantity here is much smaller than Tokiomi's wine cellar, the quality is far superior to the former. I can't believe that you secretly hid it behind your teacher's back.
So much good wine.”
Jin Xingxing fiddled with the wine glass in her hand, her tone full of ridicule.
His tone, which was like chatting between friends, immediately made Kotomine Kirei even more confused, and he asked directly: "What is your business?"
Gilgamesh raised the corners of his mouth slightly, turned his head and stared at this man with some interesting flaws in his personality with his red eyes, and replied with a half-smile: "It's nothing, I just feel bored with this Holy Grail War.
I’m not the only one.”
"boring?"
Kotomine Kirei visibly frowned.
He obviously didn't like the tone and attitude of the other person when he spoke.
"Otherwise, as a Master who is protected by the church, I'm afraid he won't leave the church easily, right? You have actually been pursuing something, but you didn't even realize it."
Gilgamesh began to lead the conversation his own way.
"I don't understand what you are talking about. Are you beginning to feel dissatisfied with the contract with your teacher? Are you holding a grudge because he used the Command Seal to end the battle between you and Caster?"
Kotomine Kirei knelt down and picked up the empty wine bottle on the ground, his voice still rising and falling calmly.
Because everything he is doing now comes from the arrangements of his father and teacher, rather than his own inner desires.
So whether he succeeds or fails, he actually doesn't care.
"Hmph! I admit that Caster did have a few bad moments, but I already know how to deal with her. Next time, I will make her kneel before the king and repent."
Gilgamesh was undoubtedly bitter about losing to Little Annie in the last contest, and he was determined to summon [Lock of the Sky] as soon as possible next time they met.
Because he also believed that this seemingly inconspicuous little thing must be the famous King of Gods Zeus.
This also means that the other party has extremely high divinity.
The biggest feature or ability of [Lock of Heaven] is that the higher the divinity of the target being captured and bound, the harder the chain and the binding power will be.
When the time comes, if you cooperate with Guili Jian, you will definitely be the one who wins the final victory.
"So you have already formulated a battle plan to win?" Kotomine Kirei asked in an uncertain tone.
Gilgamesh responded with a haughty look: "Don't underestimate the treasure house of the oldest king, bastard. What I own is the entire world, as well as everything in the past, present and future. Naturally, I have special tools to deal with the gods.
thing."
These words made Kotomine Kirei raise his eyebrows in surprise: "Oh? Then why didn't you tell the teacher? He was racking his brains to deal with Caster."
"Because Tokiomi is so boring, I never thought that there would be someone as boring as him, who only pursues the pursuit of reaching the root, without any desire for wealth, ambition, power and desire. In comparison, I feel more for you.
Interest. Especially what kind of wish you want to achieve with the help of the Holy Grail."
After saying that, Gilgamesh sat up and looked at this guy with great interest, who had been suppressing himself and the dark desires hidden in the deepest part of his soul.
