Due to the death of the supervisor's father, Rizheng, the on-site command system was in chaos, and there was no time for the Eighth Secret to dispatch an official successor.
However, after only giving proper guidance to the management of each place, the operations at each site are still proceeding in an orderly manner.
This shows that Risei's instructions before his death were very correct. Kirei's job is to dispatch tasks one by one along the track that Risei has laid, and there is actually nothing particularly difficult.
But now, he had to make a break at work.
Tokiomi didn't know about the existence of the Command Seal on Kirei's arm, and the existence of the custody Command Seal that was secretly inherited from Risei.
Of course, this kind of behavior means that Kirei has given up his duties as Tokiomi's subordinate, this will be seen through by Tokiomi one day, and now he has no right to complain at all.
After calling and contacting the staff in various places, Kirei returned to his room alone. He sat down by the bed, feeling the tranquility of the deserted church.
Staring at the darkness, Kirei questioned himself.
He has lived to this day, and he has asked this question thousands or tens of thousands of times.
But tonight, this question really oppressed him, only this time, he had to come up with the answer before dawn, because there were only four remaining Heroic Spirits in the Holy Grail War.
"My wish...what exactly is it?"
When dealing with the aftermath, among the large amount of information sent from the staff, there were two pieces of information that Kirei could not ignore.
One was the body of an adult male with a strange death form found in a city basement when the riverbanks of Caster's sea monsters were in chaos.
The body was taken over by the Church of the Templars, which avoided public knowledge and was not handed over to the relevant personnel.
Judging from the opponent's appearance and the trace of the Command Seal on his right hand, he is Caster's Master, Ryunosuke Uyuyu.
The cause of death was excessive blood loss caused by being cut open by a sharp object, but what surprised everyone was that even though this person died, he still had a happy smile on his face, which contained The meaning is really puzzling.
The other report is that Kotomine Kirei is now forcing himself to think about the source of his wishes.
Just four days ago, the body of Emiya Kiritsugu was found in the castle of Einzbern.
There was a large area of burns on the surface of the corpse, which was undoubtedly caused by fire-attributed magic, and Kotomine Kirei only remembered his teacher Tosaka Tokiomi when he went to Einzbern Castle.
These two points fit together perfectly.
However, the strange thing is that Tokiomi has always denied that he killed Emiya Kiritsugu.
"That is to say, the one who killed Emiya Kiritsugu was someone else, and that person was also one of the magicians who participated in this Holy Grail War, and the teacher, no, was able to use fire like Tohsaka Tokiomi. attribute magic."
And the magician who can kill Emiya Kiritsugu's ruthless hunting machine is undoubtedly a first-class magician, and must be cunning and elusive.
However, the more he guessed like this, the more Kirei felt his body trembling uncontrollably.
That's not fear, it's excitement.
"The remaining heroic spirits are Lancer, Saber, Archer, and Rider. Tohsaka Tokiomi and Irisviel can be ruled out. Then the one who killed Emiya Kiritsugu can only be Lancer's Master, or Rider's Master!"
"Rider's Master is just a third-rate magician, and he looked so embarrassed when he participated in the banquet at Einzbern Castle, it is really impossible for him to be the murderer who can kill Emiya Kiritsugu, and the rest... There is only Lancer's Master."
Did that young-looking boy really kill Emiya Kiritsugu?
Is he really capable of killing Emiya Kiritsugu?
If this person got the almighty wishing machine, what would he pray for?
"Master of Lancer... What kind of person... are you...?"
When a woman becomes curious about a man, she will gradually sink into the abyss, and so is the man.
Kirei became more and more curious about this young man, he once looked forward to Emiya Kiritsugu with a premonition that was almost equivalent to praying, looking forward to his answer.
But now that Emiya Kiritsugu is dead, Kirei is not disappointed, but has a deeper expectation for the person who can kill Emiya Kiritsugu.
In the deep silence, Kirei felt a commotional aura approaching him from the corridor outside the door, this aura was quite familiar to Kirei.
Even if he was just walking in silence, the heroic spirit did not hide the gorgeous majesty released from his body. Even if he stepped into the realm of God, he was still so rebellious.
Archer didn't knock on the door, and walked directly into Kirei's room. Seeing that Kirei was deep in thought, he sneered with a mocking and pitying tone.
"It's all up to now, what are you still thinking about? There must be a limit to dullness."
"Tohsaka Tokiomi... where is Mr. Tokiomi?"
"I sent him to the hotel. Recently, some guys have been spying on him at night."
Kirei nodded, indeed, letting a magus act alone is tantamount to being a target among the rest of the heroic spirits.
Afterwards, Archer smiled meaningfully.
"Surprisingly, you are really an honest guy. You know you are in a bad situation but you are still worried about Tokiomi's safety."
"This is a reasonable judgment. I have already fulfilled my responsibility as Tokiomi-sensei's tool, and there is no reason to stay in Fuyuki anymore."
"...You don't really think so, do you?"
Archer's eyes were burning like torches, as if he had seen through everything, and Kirei looked at him silently.
Chapter 75 The Worship of the Evil Forces (Second Change)
Kirei couldn't refute, because what Archer said was right, if he really planned to leave Fuyuki, he wouldn't be sitting here so foolishly.
"Now the Holy Grail is still calling you, and you are also eager to fight on."
When Archer said this, Kirei remained silent and gave up his rebuttal.
