Of course, Assassin was just a cover, a tool used to test intelligence, so it didn't matter to Tohsaka Tokiomi and the others that they were eliminated.

Then, they not only obtained the location of Irisviel and the others' hiding place, but also learned the information about Rider's Noble Phantasm.

"How will Emiya Kiritsugu respond next?"

Shirou murmured curiously.

……

I accidentally looked out the window and found that it was already dawn outside.

Looking at the rising sun, Emiya Kiritsugu continued to collect information without any emotion.

The hotel in front of Shinto Station where Maiya met three days ago is now being used as one of the hidden bases.

First, all services in the hotel room were stopped, and then a blank map of the entire Fuyuki City was posted on the wall of the room. Then, all the information about each location was put on the map with labels and marks.

The search route and time over the past few days, the messages from the familiar, and the changes in the spiritual veins.

The information on missing persons obtained by tapping the police radio station, the location of the investigation point... The icon that shows all the events that happened in Fuyuki City at night, in detail, shows the appearance of a mosaic in a state of chaos.

Emiya Kiritsugu continued the marking work silently with his right hand, and with his left hand, he unconsciously stuffed the fast food burger, a nutritional supplement he bought along the way during the search, into his mouth mechanically, and then chewed it repeatedly.

For Emiya Kiritsugu, who had long been tired of eating at the Einzbern family's table, which was like palace cuisine, for nine years, this kind of fast food full of murder was more suitable for his taste.

In any case, being able to finish the meal without interrupting your work and thinking is better than anything else.

After finishing all the markings on the map, Kiritsugu sorted out the overall contents and re-judged the trends of the Holy Grail War.

Archer——There was no movement at the Tosaka Residence. Ever since he defeated Assassin on the first day, Tokiomi had been shut up like a bear in hibernation, keeping an unpredictable silence.

Berserker——The figure who looked like the Master entered the Matou Residence. Although he had sent familiars for many confirmations and seemed unprepared to be attacked at any time, Berserker's mysterious special ability can be compared with possessing a super powerful Noble Phantasm. Archer to compete with. In order to contain Tohsaka to some extent, should Berserker be left alone now?

Caster——Summoned the"Sea Demon" in Miyuan River in an attempt to sabotage the Holy Grail War, but was eventually killed by the mysterious mastermind behind it. The person behind it has not revealed any clues to this day.

"This is a hidden danger, and we need to be wary of the people behind the scenes."

Kiritsugu wrote this at the end.

Rider - has no clue at all. He always relies on the Flying Noble Phantasm to move with the Master, so it is difficult to track. He looks very bold from the outside but has no flaws at all. He is a powerful person. opponent.

Regarding information about Rider and Archer, Kuu Maiya, who is currently recovering in Einzbern City, has just woken up. Irisviel has just conveyed most of the situation through the phone. It is said that things are taking an unexpected turn. As a result, Rider had no choice but to use a Noble Phantasm to eliminate Assassin. The Noble Phantasm used by Rider, called"King's Force", was very concerning.

But Kiritsugu was more concerned about Assassin's fate.

Although it can be infinite Value-added Servant, but what is the mystery behind it?

Moreover, the Assassin army that attacked Einzbern City last night must have mobilized all its combat power.

If not, they would not be able to form a single soldier with low individual combat capabilities. The human wave tactic is used.

This incident is completely different from the farce that happened at Tohsaka Residence last time. It may be considered that the Assassins have been completely eliminated this time.

So - where is their Master?

These Assassins are in Kiritsugu It seems that it is very likely to be related to Tosaka Tokiomi, who was the only one who did not appear at the banquet.

But a Master cannot have two Servants, so it may be a subordinate around him.

And this person , most likely Kotomine Kirei of the Holy Church!

For a person like Kotomine Kirei whose motives are completely elusive, Kiritsugu felt an incomprehensible feeling of powerlessness.

This made him feel very irritable.

Fuka Kiritsugu Sighing deeply, he lit up his first cigarette of the day, puffed out some smoke, and the room suddenly felt like a fairyland.

Lancer——The identity of his Master is a child named Fujimaru Shirou, and the situation in his family has also been cut. After some investigation, Kiritsugu found that his family background was very ordinary, and he did not find any traces of a magic family.

However, the more ordinary it was, the more Kiritsugu couldn't believe it.

Such a child with unfathomable scheming could actually obtain information from It looks so ordinary, it's impossible!

Kiritsugu guessed in his heart that Fujimaru Shirou was most likely not the child's real name. He might be a descendant of another secretive magic family, and used magic to deceive the couple. , allowing him to recognize him as his own child.

There is no doubt that such magic means exists, so Kiritsugu immediately speculated in this regard after his investigation failed to yield any useful information.

"What a troublesome guy. Kiritsugu rented a garage in a nearby town and hid a modified oil tanker inside that could be operated using a remote control device.

This civilian weapon was dubbed a"cheap cruise missile" by urban guerrillas. , it was originally intended to be a trump card used when the city was besieged by Matou or Tohsaka.

If this was used to crash into Fujimaru Shirou's house, it should be……

"No...what am I thinking about?……"

Kiritsugu shook his head slightly and gave up such an unrealistic idea.

The other party is very cautious. Every time Kiritsugu tries to approach the other party's house, he will detect the Servant's magical aura. If he continues to approach rashly, Kiritsugu will undoubtedly be killed by the other party in one blow.

Kiritsugu who is in a state of anxiety will lose his ability to make calm judgments. It is impossible to continue like this and he must readjust his mood.

It's been about seventy hours since I last slept.

Although I didn't feel very sleepy under the effect of amphetamine (stimulant), my fatigue was actually accumulating, making my attention and concentration dull.

Emiya Kiritsugu saw himself as a mechanical device operating on its own.

So I don’t have any worries about my health at all.

His management of his physical health is the same as organizing his numerous weapons. He just keeps his body in a working condition where it can fully exert its full capabilities.
