Gilgamesh thinks that the current Kotomine Kirei is pathetic.
Kotomine Kirei himself also thinks that he is pathetic.
but
It's not because he, as a ferocious beast lurking in human society, was collared by his own followers.
But he was going to lose the person who put the collar on him.
If you meet the right person, then - even if you are collared by this person, so what?
Kotomine Kirei didn't mind this, but rather enjoyed it.
Sadness or happiness never needs to be defined by others.
"Saber--how are you doing there?"
While running away, Emiya Kiritsugu asked Anno.
An Nuo is still fighting Zuo Cun.
"It's not over!"
He could only answer Emiya Kiritsugu while being distracted during the battle.
Tsk——
Want to escape from Kotomine Kirei's pursuit——
--What!?
Emiya Kiritsugu only felt a huge pressure that almost stopped his breathing.
He turned his head slightly, and what he saw was indeed——
"I won't let you escape."
Accompanied by Kotomine Kirei's calm voice, a heart-breaking left fist was struck at Emiya Kiritsugu.
——There is no room to dodge!!!
call out--
The fist moved the wind, and the target was to take Emiya Kiritsugu's heart!
But just at this moment——
Buzz——
Emiya Kiritsugu's chest suddenly burst into white light.
Poof——
The tiny white beam of light blasted out from Emiya Kiritsugu's chest and pierced directly through Kotomine Kirei's left hand.
"Um--!?"
Kotomine Kirei obviously did not expect that Emiya Kiritsugu had such a hand. The pain from his left hand being pierced made him take two steps back. Emiya Kiritsugu also took advantage of this moment to quickly pull away from Kotomine Kirei.
distance.
"Saber, in the name of the Command Seal, strengthen your strength, kill Assassin, and then retreat quickly!"
Buzz——
After closing the distance, Emiya Kiritsugu used the Command Seal to issue the order without hesitation.
The red Command Seal disappeared, leaving only a faint trace, and what Emiya Kiritsugu did at this time was not just to issue orders with the Command Seal.
He took out two things from his pocket.
One is a tear gas bomb, the other
It's a remote control.
drop.
--boom!!!
A violent explosion sounded from somewhere, and a miniature mushroom cloud slowly rose into the sky.
Kotomine Kirei's ears twitched slightly and he suddenly turned his head.
——This is the direction of Fuyuki Church!
At this time, the tear gas bomb was thrown by Emiya Kiritsugu.
The irritating smoke spurted out instantly. Kotomine Kirei looked at Emiya Kiritsugu who turned around and ran away after throwing the tear gas canister. He gritted his teeth and rolled to avoid the range of the tear gas canister, heading in the direction of Fuyuki Church.
Ran over.
"Sorry, Zuocun."
--boom!!!
Amidst the violent explosion, Annuo sighed and stood up the holy sword in front of him. The light of the holy sword reflected his eyes.
There was anger and compassion in his eyes, but——
At least, this battle needs an end.
"Ha, it doesn't matter. Didn't my master also use the three-stroke command spell to strengthen me?"
Zuo Cun smiled casually, and then glanced at the direction from which the explosion came.
"But according to the rules, it seems to be a violation to attack the church as a neutral party."
"Your master's methods are really despicable to the extreme. He will do anything to win."
Zuo Cun smiled sarcastically.
"What kind of huge goal is it worth pursuing like this?"
Huge means difficult.
Chasing means losing.
There was a slight haze on An Nuo's face.
"For world peace."
Annuo gave the answer.
"well?"
Zuocun was stunned.
"what did you just say?"
"For the peace of the entire world, create a world without conflict, pain, and suffering."
"World Peace."
Anno repeated Emiya Kiritsugu's wish to Zuomura.
Zuo Cun was silent.
"It's like a fairy tale wish."
After a long time, he sighed and gave his own evaluation.
"Yes, it is a wish that is as unrealistic and far-fetched as a fairy tale."
Annuo closed his eyes and shook his head gently.
"But it is indeed his truest and most longing wish. He does not hesitate to stain his hands with blood, does not hesitate to turn himself into a devil, and devotes everything to fulfill even the things he cares about most."
"He knows that he cannot achieve it realistically by relying on his own abilities, so the only thing he can think of to rely on is the all-powerful wishing machine, the Holy Grail."
"This is the reason why he came to participate in the Holy Grail War."
"Yeah."
Zuo Cun tapped the back of He He's sword twice on his shoulder.
"Then, come and kill me for his wish."
Zuo Cun's eyes became more serious than ever before.
