"Of course, if possible, I would actually like to kill Tokiomi Tokiomi, Kotomine Kirei, or Kenneth, but it's not time yet for the other two."
"Lancer didn't attack me yesterday, but there is a chance that Kenneth is dead. Even if he is not dead, he is already a cripple."
"I want to make sure I exit."
"The victory between Lancer and I shouldn't be decided in this way." After a moment of silence, Annuo sighed.
"But, the duel between you and Master Lancer"
"I won't stop you, Kiritsugu, but if the enemy is Lancer, please use my power."
An Nuo narrowed his eyes and said.
Emiya Kiritsugu threw the cigarette to the ground and stamped it out.
"When I find Lancer's hiding place, maybe I will contact you."
"Something serious happened to Kirei!"
In the communication attire, the panicked voice of Kotomine Kirei's father, Kotomine Risei, was heard.
"Father, what's wrong?"
Kotomine Kirei's attitude became serious in an instant.
His father would never show such a panic tone. Since he has such a tone, it means that what happened is really serious.
"Your teacher was killed."
Forcibly suppressing the shock, Kotomineri tried his best to speak the news in a natural tone.
Kotomine Kirei's eyes widened when he heard the news.
Tohsaka Tokiomi's body was already cold.
His body was split in two - along with the entire room, internal organs and other things were scattered on the floor, and the entire place was extremely bloody.
Tokiomi Tokiomi's face still had a look of horror. His upper body was lying in the position where he said goodbye to Kotomine Kirei last night. As for his lower body, he was in a kneeling position.
The appearance of death was very miserable.
"It was Archer's hand. This kind of magic, this kind of power, no one else can have."
Zuo Cun analyzed the scene in detail and said seriously.
"The most important thing is this place."
Samura picked up Tokiomi Tokiomi's right arm, which had only half of it left, and glanced at Kotomine Kirei.
"Your teacher's right hand was cut off along with his right arm."
Kotomine Kirei fell silent.
However, he had to admit that this was indeed one of the results he had expected.
"This guy seems to have just given you his suicide note last night, right? I didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly. So, Kirei, what should we do now?"
Zuo Cun wiped his hands with a tissue on the table.
While inspecting the scene, his hands were stained with some blood and he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Let me first report the current situation to my father."
"Archer's killing of the Master and taking away the Command Seal used for the contract has undoubtedly become an evil act. I need to seek my father's opinion."
"Well, maybe you can be more assertive."
Zuo Cun raised his eyebrows.
He could see that his Master didn't seem to be sad at all.
Or is there some sadness, but expressed in other ways?
"Assassin, now is not the time to say such things." Shaking his head, Kotomine Kirei looked at his teacher's body and sighed softly.
What kind of emotions should I feel in my heart now?
At night, the Assassin group's stronghold.
"Actually, judging from your expression, you should have expected this, Kirei."
Samura said to Kotomine Kirei with a smile while playing the game.
"The teacher is not qualified as a minister. He cannot be a loyal minister serving that king. I have reminded him of this several times."
Kotomine Kirei looked at the anime playing on the screen and said to Samura.
He may indeed have had some mood swings, but now, he has returned to normal.
"Moreover, the teacher has been a disloyal minister from the beginning. He is the most standard magician."
Kotomine Kirei's eyes were slightly lowered, and he couldn't see clearly what he was thinking.
What is the mechanism by which the Holy Grail grants wishes?
Others may not be very clear, but there is only one way to open the channel to the root.
That is to sacrifice the souls of all the Seven Riders.
All seven rides.
This is why Tokiomi Tosaka risked angering Gilgamesh with his words but was unwilling to use the command spell to recall Gilgamesh.
He wanted to save the use of command spells as much as possible, so that when the Holy Grail finally came, he could use this last command spell to order Gilgamesh to commit suicide.
In that way, he can embrace the most noble and great achievements on this path as a magician.
That is - getting to the root.
The loyalty he dedicated was for rebellion in the first place.
"Haha, magician"
Zuo Cunqi laughed.
"So, what did your father say to you?"
"After all, you participated in the Holy Grail War and summoned me, it seems, just to assist Tokiomi Tohsaka in victory, right?"
"Now that Tosaka Tokiomi is dead, what are your plans?"
"You can fight for yourself now."
When he said this, Zuo Cun's controller was temporarily put down.
The TV screen was reflected in Kotomine Kirei's pupils.
"Then what should be done?"
"Father didn't give me the answer. Assassin, can you give me one?"
Zuo Cun stood up and finally showed a smile.
"So--"
"This this"
Matou Kariya's expression was serious, and he couldn't believe the news he saw.
"Archer defected? And killed his master Tohsaka Tokiomi?"
His servant Manlio was also quite shocked by the news.
Generally speaking, a servant will never defect, because the summoning of a servant is a two-way choice. Whether or not to respond to the master's summons depends on the servant's own thoughts, and it is also bound by this command spell.
But it just happened.
The source of the information is reliable. The Matou family's intelligence network in Fuyuki City does not necessarily make the Tohsaka family poor at all.
This news will surely be sealed immediately by Assassin and the church. What should we do now?
"This news must be reported to the head of the family first. This is already an event beyond the Holy Grail War."
His expression is serious.
The Matou family and the Tohsaka family have been on good terms for hundreds of years, and these are the only two magician families in Fuyuki City.
The impact of this incident will be greater than imagined.
"And before the Holy Grail War is over, you must not tell Sakura about this!"
"Absolutely not!"
He also thought of Sakura's sister, Tosaka Tokiomi's eldest daughter Tosaka Rin.
If his father dies, the responsibility of the family head will fall on Rin.
Can that child really support such a heavy responsibility?
Now let’s tell the head of the family what happened.
