Since the Holy Grail ceremony was resumed in Fuyuki City, Fuyuki City, which has enjoyed ten years of peace, has become undercurrents, as if a gas leak and explosion may occur anytime and anywhere.
However, due to the strong appearance of Berserker, the servant of the Illya group, and showing his strong strength, the possibility of a gas leak explosion accident happening in the city has been drastically reduced.
Led by Red A, the new teacher combination of Emiya Tadayei's family, Tohsaka's husband and wife team, and only Weber appeared, started the alliance.
As for the Holy Grail War, there were only seven forces in total, and now three out of seven. In addition to Sakura and Yamanoyo who were hiding in secret, there were actually only three forces hanging around outside.
Among them, Illya's self-controlled Servant Berserker is the strongest heroic spirit, and the external Small Holy Grail that leads to the real Great Holy Grail is herself. After retrieving her unconscious mother Irisviel and repelling the After her family was attacked by her scumbag father, Emiya Kiritsugu, she had no fear and chose to defend her position in the castle, as if she was waiting for the final challenger of the Holy Grail to come to the final battle.
As for Lancer's grandfather and grandson group (Bazett is actually the blood descendant of Cu Chulainn who knows how many generations ago), after realizing that the El-Melloi faction's support personnel had arrived in Fuyuki City, they didn't want to go to Fuyuki City. Sister Ba, who wanted to intervene in the factional fight within the Magicians Association, immediately started to mess around and made a passive gesture of standing still.
In the final R group, Queen Maeve is more interested in partying with many outstanding men in multi-person sports than fighting. Now the Demon Pillar who has traveled through time and space to this world, Leif Lenore Flowers Come to the door...
After discovering that the Holy Grail Ceremony here contained the Demon God Pillar, a crowned assassin, I didn't want to be too high-profile.
Therefore, the peace in Fuyuki City became a natural phenomenon.
. . . .
Team Sakura, after joining the Versus B Alliance, held discussions when they needed to show up.
"Our purpose is to dismantle the Holy Grail ritual itself, and if other Masters who want to obtain the Holy Grail know our purpose, I am afraid they will regard us as their first enemy.
Although, we have Caster, Assassin, and two golems that have been strengthened to the level of servants, plus Sakura and Gray, two combat magicians who can also deal with servants.
Well, this kind of strength is indeed impressive, and it even made me think that we had a chance to win.
But without knowing the capabilities of the remaining opponents, rashly exposing ourselves is not a good choice.
Take the Fourth Holy Grail War that I participated in as an example. My servant Iskandar has the Noble Phantasm ability to summon thousands of troops and numerous heroic spirits, which can definitely defeat us now.
However, he and I still failed..."
The mountain man stood up from his seat, and after a while, sat back down without saying anything.
Medea had a different view. She felt that with her own magical assistance and the heavy sword of the Mountain Master next to her, she should be able to cut down all the other heroic spirits in the room. But after all, her new master, named Weber Velvet's Clock Tower Lecturer's analysis of the situation was fairly well-founded, and he did not express any other opinions like directly tying A Mang.
"No matter what enemy we face, caution is necessary. My plan is for me to show up first and join the alliance against Berserker, while Sakura, you continue to stay in the dark and don't show up. We show each other the light and the dark. However, when necessary, we can cooperate inside and outside to deal with our allies, the Tosaka family and the Emiya family..."
"Teacher Weber, would it be too despicable to backstab an ally?"
Gray had a simple temperament, and after Weber told her the plan, she actually asked innocently.
“There is a saying in the art of war that soldiers never tire of deceit.
The Holy Grail Ceremony is a small-scale war.
Therefore, there is absolutely no problem with the use of certain strategies, whether it is despicable or not. "
Weber pushed up the glasses on his nose and gave this explanation.
He received the thoughtful and admiring looks of the simple students.
Sakura agreed to her senior brother's plan.
Therefore, in the alliance of three Masters, the emergence of a hidden additional fourth Master who may support or backstab the alliance has become a relatively subtle fact.
. . . .
Because the Emiya family's old house was large enough, it became the place of choice for the first exchange meeting held by Saber, Archer, and Caster after the three parties formed an alliance.
But when the three parties actually met and sat down in three directions at a rectangular low table, the scene fell into a strange atmosphere of silence. All three parties seemed to be waiting for the person to speak first.
"I said, aren't we here to discuss how to deal with the Berserker group?
Why are you silent and not talking? Is it possible that you can come up with a specific and effective method like this? "
Weber spoke first and looked towards Red A.
Red A's side is the initiator of the alliance against B.
"this……"
Tohsaka Rin was about to respond, but his hand was held by the red A beside him.
Red A shook his head towards Tosaka Rin and turned to look at the man on the side.
"Although I really want to come up with an effective plan, after investigation, we found that the master of the Saber side, Emiya Kiritsugu, and the master of the Berserker group, Illya von Einzbern, seem to be biological children. The relationship between father and daughter.”
After a pause, Red A continued: "At this point, I think it is appropriate for you to express your thoughts first."
"How did you know that Illya is my daughter?"
Emiya Kiritsugu frowned.
He was unwilling to join forces with others to deal with Illya, but Artoria was no match for Hercules. In order to prevent his daughter from continuing to commit suicide, he could only choose to cooperate with Red A, but he did not Thinking that the other party would know this, that Illya is his daughter.
"If people don't know..."
Red A coughed a few times, swallowed back the words "Unless you are green", but said one sentence.
"This is not something that is difficult to investigate, isn't it? The Magician Killer who once represented Einzbern in the Fourth Holy Grail War can be found out by asking carefully."
Tohsaka Rin quietly pulled him from underneath. Apparently, Tohsaka Rin knew nothing about this matter.
Hearing this, Emiya Kiritsugu was silent for a while before nodding: "You are right, then let me, the other party's father, express my thoughts first.
First of all, I have to state that my daughter Ilia and I are two separate individuals.
Because the Holy Grail is the dream of every magician, and I am no exception. I want to obtain the Holy Grail, so I agreed to cooperate with you..."
[The Holy Grail War is full of all kinds of dirty tricks! 】
Emiya Kiritsugu thought to himself, with a cold expression on his face that a magician should have. He didn't want others to see that he cared about his daughter.
Emiya Kiritsugu's stance is also a bit delicate as he joins the Berserker Alliance against his daughter, but with the intention of protecting her.
"I don't have many good ideas on how to deal with Berserker, because my Saber is no match for Berserker, so how to join forces and how to deal with Berserker depends on your abilities..."
[It’s okay to deal with Berserker, but after dealing with Berserker, if these people still want to deal with Illya, then maybe that’s the time to fall out...]
Emiya Kiritsugu said this, but thought in his heart.
[So is dad this kind of person? 】
Red A felt a little disappointed in her heart, but her face remained calm.
"I have observed the battle between Berserker and you. That one is indeed very powerful, but no matter how powerful he is, he is only one Heroic Spirit, and we have three here.
Therefore, my idea is to continue to use your Saber to feign a frontal attack, and then use the Caster opposite me to assist, and together we can slow down Berserker.
Then, let me carry out a sneak attack on his master..."
Before Red A finished speaking, he was interrupted by two voices.
"no."
Emiya Kiritsugu and Waver looked at each other, and then quickly looked away from each other.
"As we all know, the Einzbern family is responsible for the Small Holy Grail in the Holy Grail Ceremony, and the one who represents that family this time is obviously to move the Small Holy Grail itself. How can we contain Berserker while you are left alone? A situation arises to control the Little Holy Grail..."
[The Little Holy Grail, if it can be held in our hands, will help dismantle the Holy Grail ritual...]
This was Weber's idea.
[Illya’s safety must be guaranteed...]
Emiya Kiritsugu, who didn't know the details of Red A, came up with this idea.
The three parties jointly communicated and discussed the first step in dealing with Berserker, but they immediately got stuck on the issue of who would control Illya.
Whether they can defeat Berserker is one thing, but the people from the three parties do not doubt whether they can subdue Illya herself, whose servant is being held back.
The three parties, each with their own thoughts, are refusing to give in to each other for the reason that "the Little Holy Grail cannot be transferred to other people's hands".
Weber's [Help with the Disintegration Holy Grail Ceremony], Emiya Kiritsugu's [Don't let my daughter get hurt], Red A's [There are some problems with the father of this world, but no matter what, I can't let the father of this world do it. He committed a terrible act that hurt his own daughter]...
The process of two masters and one heroic spirit not giving in to each other and constantly arguing made Tosaka Rin feel irritated. After half an hour, she finally couldn't help it and slapped the table directly: "Stop, don't act like this again. If you keep arguing like this, I'm afraid there won't be any results tomorrow."
Everyone stopped talking and looked at the girl who was a little angry.
Tohsaka Rin caught the attention, coughed a few times unnaturally, and pretended to be calm.
"According to what I said, none of us should try to directly master Einzbern's Little Holy Grail. We should first work together to control the other party, let the other party consume all the command spells in his hand, and make his servant Berserker retire, and then Then let the three of us decide the winner and decide who can master the Little Holy Grail?"
"Heh, what you said sounds nice, but you want your servants to arrest people."
After Tohsaka Rin finished speaking, Emiya Shirou's somewhat sinister voice suddenly came from the side. He spoke directly, but he did get to the point.
Tohsaka Rin felt a little angry, but still explained: "All our servants have to hold back Berserker.
And all our Masters signed a magic contract not to harm each other, and we first jointly subdued Berserker's Master.
Thinking about it, without the intervention of the servants and only our Master, all parties should be able to feel more at ease. "
[Magic contract...]
Emiya Kiritsugu thought of the two people around him who knew how to use firearms, and nodded.
"I think this proposal is okay."
【Contract...】
Weber thought of Medea's curse-breaking treasure phantom, and even without Medea's curse-breaking treasure phantom, he still had Sakura and the others hiding in the dark.
So, he also nodded: "Okay, let our servants hold off the other party's servants, and on the Master's side, we Masters will work together to deal with it. This is very reasonable."
"But without the intervention of the servants, Illya controls a large number of battle dolls. Can the rest of us together be able to deal with them?"
The abrupt Emiya Shirou started to argue again, but he still argued very reasonably.
Tohsaka Rin thought for a while and said: "Let's see, even if Berserker is solved, in addition to the three parties we are united with now, there are three other parties that have not shown up.
If we fight over the control of the Little Holy Grail, others may benefit from it.
Therefore, it is better to take advantage of the fact that the other party has battle dolls and see which master has solved the largest number of battle dolls to decide who will temporarily obtain the Little Holy Grail in the end. "
Tohsaka Rin did not answer the question of whether Emiya Shirou could deal with the battle dolls, but agreed that he could, and instead wanted to use the number of combat dolls to decide who could capture Illya, Master this right of the Little Holy Grail.
Her hand touched the gem in her pocket. As a krypton gold magician, as long as she has sufficient gem reserves, she will be confident in her own strength.
"What do you two think of this new proposal?"
Tohsaka Rin made his own little calculation and asked the two parties to join forces.
"acceptable."
Emiya Kiritsugu thought for a moment before giving an answer.
"no problem."
Weber said without hesitation for long.
【Very good! 】
The casual plan succeeded, and Tohsaka Rin felt a little excited.
But just to be on the safe side, she added.
"These must be written on the magic contract."
Neither Emiya Kiritsugu nor Waver had any objections.
Compared to Tosaka Rin, who was a little naive and believed that the magic contract was guaranteed, Emiya Kiritsugu was already thinking about using firearms to directly control the two of them.
Tohsaka Rin is just a simple girl, and may not know the intrigues of the real magician world.
As for Weber, Emiya Kiritsugu had also recognized him and even done some research. This person, whom he had met several times during the Fourth War, was capable as a lecturer, but as a magician, he was only a third-rate person with no strength at all. Nothing to worry about…
The only doubt was that Emiya Kiritsugu didn't understand why the opponent who had seen the contaminated state of the Holy Grail in the Fourth War would come back to participate in the meaningless Holy Grail War.
【Could it be...】
Emiya Kiritsugu, who had an inexplicable thought in his heart, looked at Weber, somewhat silent.
[Things are perfect. When the time comes, as long as Sakura takes the Mountain Master and hides quietly aside, without the protection of the servants, if everything goes well, the Holy Grail War may be over for the most part at once, and Saber, Archer and Berserker are all done...]
With such thoughts in mind, Weber suddenly noticed the gaze of Emiya Kiritsugu next to him.
Weber twisted his body and felt a little uncomfortable being looked at directly by an old man.
But at the same time, because of the other person's gaze, Weber also had the same thought as Emiya Kiritsugu.
[Why did this man in front of me, who had seen the contamination of the Holy Grail in the Fourth War, and was even the Master who destroyed the Holy Grail at that time, come to participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War? 】
As soon as this idea came up, he couldn't help but have more associations.
【Could it be...】
Weber raised his eyes, met Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes, and both fell silent.
"I've drawn up the magic contract, you two have a look..."
Rin Tosaka suddenly paused when she raised her head. What did she see?
The eyes of the two men met in the air, as if they were gazing at each other lovingly?
