Kuu Maiya discovered Kotomine Kirei while checking the sniper spot.

She was raised as a young soldier and lived like a machine in order to extend her life. But now, that experience has become an unbearable past.

After meeting Emiya Kiritsugu again, she got a new name, a new identity, and the meaning of existence.

For this reason, she did not hesitate to commit any crime.

After arriving in Fuyuki with Emiya Kiritsugu, they took advantage of the opportunity before the masters arrived to find a suitable place to deploy a base in Fuyuki City. Although the work was not easy, the process was quite enjoyable. In this At that time, Emiya Kiritsugu became addicted to smoking after a long absence.

Because there was no vending machine nearby, Kuu Maiya, whose identity had not yet been exposed, chose to buy it instead of Emiya Kiritsugu. Then, on the way to the convenience store, she saw an unexpected figure.

Kirei Kotomine.

The priest who was the focus of Emiya Kiritsugu's attention, because he didn't know whether he was accompanied by a heroic spirit, Kuu Maiya just casually looked sideways, but saw that the priest who was supposed to be hiding was talking to the convenience store with a heavy look on his face. The clerk was saying something.

Obviously that guy looks ordinary. Apart from his decent face, there is nothing related to the other world. After all, no magician would ridiculously wear a convenience store bib and work as a cashier.

Is he the priest's friend in the outer world?

Although Kuu Maiya also feels that this priest is dangerous, considering the other person's profession, it doesn't seem surprising that he has friends. He may be able to use it to threaten the priest in the future.

——This idea completely changed after seeing the young man take off his gloves.

Command Seals.

Only the absolute command power of San Hui has found the seventh Master.

Although she has guessed that the last one is probably the lucky one randomly chosen by the Holy Grail, and the other party does not even know what the Holy Grail War is, but now that it is exposed, it is the other party's misfortune. For the victory that Emiya Kiritsugu desires, she cannot possibly Let this gift go.

Without thinking too much, Kuu Maiya checked the status of the gun and walked in. Just as she thought, the young man didn't notice it at all and was still looking at the back of his hand. It would be easy to do next. .

He threatened him to go out and take him to a remote place, and called Emiya Kiritsugu through the intercom to transplant the command spell. After killing the opponent, if the command spell had not been transplanted while the master was alive, Kuu Maiya even wanted to just take the command spell with him. Take a body.

Although the other party may be just an innocent ordinary person, who made him be chosen?

So, Kuu Maiya raised his gun.

But she got an unexpected answer. The other party cooperated with her very respectfully, and then naturally made a request for leave, and picked up the phone and started dialing. Because it was so smooth, Kuu Maiya didn't even know it for a while. Should I shoot myself?

"Store manager, it's me, Roland. I'm sorry, because there's something urgent coming up. I need to take fifteen minutes off. Can you come over and help me get off work? Okay, thank you."

Roland hung up the phone, smiled at Kuu Maiya, and raised his hands.

"I've got it done. So, Miss Robber, where are we going next?"

"Shut up and follow the route I told you. If you make any extra moves, I will shoot you."

It was clear that he was the one with the advantage, but in the previous conversation, the guy named Roland in front of him easily took away the initiative, which made Kuu Maiya couldn't help but be more vigilant.

After a while, the two passed through several alleys and came to an unfinished building that had not yet been built. This was a newly built stronghold. A certain number of weapons had been stored in the surrounding corners, and the intercom calls were also very smooth. , when Roland came here with a gun pointed at her, she had already sent the rendezvous signal to Emiya Kiritsugu.

It wasn't until everything was arranged that Kuu Maiya relaxed a little.

Since there is no change yet, this guy must really be just a powerless ordinary person.

No, it's not appropriate to call him an ordinary person. Kuu Maiya didn't think that ordinary people would be so calm after being threatened by a gun to a remote place, or even have the leisure to stare at the robber.

"What are you looking at!"

Feeling Roland's slightly heavier breathing, Kuu Maiya used his calmness to overcome his anxiety and shouted sharply.

"I'm just admiring your hands, Miss Robber, you have a very nice pair of hands."

Roland put down his raised hands and replied in frivolous language.

"Do people who are about to die always make such nonsense?" Kuu Maiya's index finger tightened on the trigger, "Even if you took the opportunity just now to send out a secret message, it would be enough to kill you before your reinforcements arrive. A hundred times!”

"Yeah?"

The smile on Roland's face became more obvious, and Kuu Maiya instinctively took a step back. She finally discovered what was wrong.

That smile seemed peaceful, but it was too superficial, as if he had practiced in front of the mirror. Only the indifferent and self-centered smile in front of him had a strange and terrifying reality.

"Don't come near me anymore!"

Kuu Maiya couldn't care less about the fact that killing her master would result in the loss of the Command Seal, and with the uneasiness that made her whole body tremble, she pulled the trigger.

But the reliable weapon she had carefully maintained turned into powder and slowly dissipated under the powerful movement, as if it was annihilated in an instant.

"This inexplicable dirty feeling, who are you?"

Driven by survival instinct, Kuu Maiya shouted loudly.

Then, in the other party's casual smile, she got the answer.

"My name is Roland, I am 19 years old. I live in a residential area near Xindu Commercial Street. I am unmarried. I work at a convenience store in Fuyuki City Park."

"I get home from get off work at 8 o'clock at the latest every day. I don't smoke, and I only drink a little bit. I go to bed at 11 o'clock in the evening, and I need to sleep for 8 hours a day. I sleep soundly like a baby until dawn, and never leave fatigue and stress until the next day. God. My colleagues say I’m normal.”

This disturbingly detailed self-introduction caused fear to crawl out of every nerve in Kuu Maiya's body, making her tremble uncontrollably as she considered herself a weapon.

"What on earth are you going to say!"

If he continued like this, he would definitely lose all the courage to resist. Kuu Maiya could no longer bear it. At this close distance, he rushed forward and punched Roland in the face.

This sharp punch was enough to bring down the big man, but Roland easily held his wrist. Kuu Maiya wanted to retract his hand, but received no response.

She couldn't move her hands. In addition to Roland's strength as a man, there was another invisible thing.

"What I mean is that I don't have any extravagant aspirations. I just hope to live in peace and quiet. So I don't care about winning or losing, because that will only bring trouble and enemies to myself. I am very happy with such a change. I hate it, but if I have to do it, I won’t lose to anyone.”

Click——

While Roland happily explained his thoughts, he controlled Killer Queen mercilessly and broke the arm that Kuu Maiya hit.

He looked at his Kuu Maiya's hand intently with a cherished expression, raised his head and smiled.

"I didn't expect that someone who holds a gun all year round can have such high-quality hands. Normally, I would have to take away these hands according to my own interests as compensation for you breaking my peaceful life. However, "

"Now, I have changed my mind, Miss Kuu Maiya."

Looking at Kuu Maiya who was still struggling with his dream, Roland glanced at the Key of All Souls in his hand. At this moment, this prop was emitting a silver light that only he could see, conveying a message to him.

"The current number of contracted spirits nearby: one"
