"It's too, too dangerous..."
Emiya Kiritsugu leaned against the wall on the other side of the street. He couldn't control himself anymore and spit out a mouthful of blood.
Wiping the blood on his mouth casually, Emiya Kiritsugu forced his body to stand up, but in the end he slid down weakly along the wall.
"For me, the inherent time control of four times speed is still too forced?"
At that moment, when the dangerous car exploded, Emiya Kiritsugu activated the magic that this name should have.
It is a method that has been passed down from generation to generation in the magic seal of the Emiya family to reach the source.
To put it more simply, this is the magic of manipulating time. If it is reproduced in the form of an inherent barrier, it can control the inside of the barrier and speed up or stop the flow of time.
But this is just an invisible theory after all. Otherwise, the inherent barrier would not be called the magic closest to magic. After all, that kind of thing can theoretically erode the world with its own mental image.
It was not until Kiritsugu's father's generation that he cleverly completed the operation of placing a small barrier inside his body, demonstrating the ability of this magic. Although he did not care about the inheritance of the Emiya family, for this magic in the seal, Wei Miyagiritsugu still likes it very much.
It was by accelerating himself that Emiya Kiritsugu was able to escape to the edge of the explosion in time, but as a price, after the magic ended, the capillaries in his body began to be damaged in large numbers when the time flow rate was adjusted to be consistent.
At this point, Emiya Kiritsugu's lifeless face couldn't help but begin to twist. After gasping for breath several times but still not getting better, he pressed his ribs, feeling a faint pain there.
Emiya Kiritsugu immediately came to the conclusion that his internal organs were damaged in the explosion just now.
Just the impact from the edge had such an effect. The power of the explosion could be imagined. If he had activated the magic one step later, he might have turned into a mutilated corpse.
The magic mark on Kiritsugu's body also lit up spontaneously, and he began to extract magic power and perform healing magic, but this only treated the symptoms and not the root cause.
"But that's enough. Fortunately, I brought out the scabbard."
After summoning Saber, Avalon has some remaining magic power, which can barely provide a healing effect.
Relying on these, Emiya Kiritsugu put his palms against the wall and stood up with difficulty as if his kidneys were weak. He couldn't care about the sequelae now. After solving this trap, he must arrive immediately while he still has fighting strength. Beside Kuu Maiya.
But the next moment, his face, which gradually became cold in pain, became distorted again.
In the smoke dispersed from the center of the explosion, the blue car slowly drove out, and the skull on the top locked his direction again.
"Impossible! I clearly saw him explode with my own eyes!"
This kind of gift that can automatically lock on enemies, become invisible, and can also create powerful explosions can be sold at a sky-high price among magicians. Emiya Kiritsugu has also heard of similar things.
However, to be able to recover unscathed after a self-destruction explosion was a monster that was beyond his comprehension.
However, there was no pause in the withering and piercing attack. According to the master's order, he faithfully drove in the direction of Emiya Kiritsugu and made a declaration in a cold voice.
"The explosion just now didn't hit a human - show me here!"
Just like the scythe used by the god of death to seek the soul, Emiya Kiritsugu was at his wits' end at this moment.
Can I only use command spells?
I didn't expect that I would waste one without even seeing the enemy's face. The noise caused by the heroic spirit and this thing after its appearance would also make the enemy flee. It was really a big mistake.
Emiya Kiritsugu raised his hand and began to call out the command spell with his mind. While doing useless work, he fired all the bullets from the fully automatic submachine pistol in his hand, and then threw it aside casually.
"In the name of the Command Seal..."
But something surprising happened. The car did not continue to chase him, but walked towards the discarded pistol.
Such a discovery made Emiya Kiritsugu quickly realize the key to the matter. He gave up using the command spell and hurriedly took out a few bullets, like bait for a puppy, and threw them into the distance one by one, and activated them with igniting magic. they.
"Bang, bang..."
As each bullet was fired, the car followed the traces left by the bullets and slowly walked elsewhere.
"Is it really the temperature?"
Emiya Kiritsugu breathed a sigh of relief. Among the common enemies, heartbeat and breathing were the most common ones. Therefore, he could not react immediately when faced with such a temperature-chasing thing.
After watching the car gradually leave with a solemn expression, Emiya Kiritsugu was also ready to run away. This invincible thing generally maintained the level of a fast remote control car in terms of pursuit speed. With this distance, he It should be possible to evade tracking.
However, the opposite happened.
As the car gradually left the street, he suddenly stopped moving, no longer paying attention to the bait in front of him, then turned his head and looked at Emiya Kiritsugu again.
"How could it be? My body temperature is obviously..."
Seeing this unusual situation, Emiya Kiritsugu was shocked, and an idea flashed in his mind.
He remembered.
"Is it actually magic?"
During Emiya Kiritsugu's career as a magician-killer, the reason why he was able to prepare himself to find and kill his target came from a little unintentional trick.
When he became a magician, Emiya Kiritsugu discovered that when using magic, the magician's body temperature would rise, perhaps because the magic circuit was activated.
With this and constant research, Emiya Kiritsugu was able to distinguish between ordinary people and magicians.
And just now, although getting angry was just a basic magic, but after many high-frequency uses, the temperature judgment in his body had already surpassed that of a bait that only had a momentary temperature.
"What an irony." He made a mistake in what he was best at. Such a thing made Emiya Kiritsugu unable to smile weakly, watching the approaching car bring the news of death.
——
"That's enough,"
Roland looked leisurely at Kuu Maiya in front of her. The dagger in her hand had been knocked to the ground. The Killer Queen who was standing in front of her kicked Kuu Maiya mercilessly in the abdomen. This force The powerful and heavy blow made Kuu Maiya fly away as if she had been hit by a car, and her body broke one of the closed doors.
The exit was obviously only one step away from her, but she didn't even have the strength to climb out. What's even more ironic is that because she wanted to kill Roland and dispose of the body later, she specifically chose this secluded abandoned building. She didn't expect that Become your own burial ground.
"Let me tell you, don't resist too much. It will only anger me and bring more pain. I am the victim today."
Roland said in an indifferent voice, "It would be better to simply die. Are you still expecting Emiya Kiritsugu to save you?"
Kuu Maiya didn't make a sound, and slowly lifted her body up from the ground.
She just looked toward the exit quietly, scenes from the past flashing through her mind, waiting for death to come.
As if in response to her little hope, the deep voice sounded across the street.
"Maiya!"
Emiya Kiritsugu dragged his body, looked at the dying Maiya, subconsciously stretched out his hand and called out.
But for Kuu Maiya, this is just another kind of despair coming.
"Emiya Kiritsugu actually escaped? I thought I was going to recover it from his body, but forget it, I came just in time."
Kiritsugu must be protected.
Kuu Maiya looked back blankly. Roland was leaning against the wall in a rather enchanting posture, making a fist with one hand and his thumb slightly bent, as if he was about to press the trigger.
She didn't know where the strength came from to maintain her will, and Kuu Maiya shouted at the loudest voice in her life towards Kiritsugu who was running.
"Kiritsugu! This is the seventh Master. The mystery of his ability lies in explosion. She can explode anything she touches..."
But before she could finish speaking, the indifferent voice had already decided her ending.
"Killer Queen, I've already touched you."
Roland's thumb pressed gently.
"Maiya——!!!"
Amid Emiya Kiritsugu's desperate cry, Kuu Maiya's body shattered into pieces and dissipated into flying smoke.
