Gilgamesh left.
The Key to Heaven in Annuo's hand also dissipated - Ananu's short-term assistance has reached its end. After all, this is Gilgamesh's treasure, not Annuo's.
As Bai Chal returned to her sheath, Annuo had some doubts, but no one could answer them.
Gilgamesh left suddenly. He was so angry that he suddenly boarded the Flying Noble Phantasm and left without saying anything.
Anno was left behind with the forest messed up by the fight between the two.
Let’s go find the Master first.
Shaking his head, Annuo turned and left.
The base should be moved.
"Teacher, Archer promised to come back?"
In Tosaka's house, Tokiomi Tokiomi and Kotomine Kirei, master and apprentice, were sitting in Tokiomi's office.
Kotomine Kirei originally planned to return directly to his and Assassin's stronghold, but on the way back, he received a message from his teacher Tokiomi Tosaka, so he did not go back, but rushed straight to Tosaka's house.
"Yes, it's really troublesome to have such a servant."
Tosaka Tokiomi shook his head and sighed heavily.
He always maintained a cautious attitude when dealing with Gilgamesh, speaking and acting in line with the king's thoughts as much as possible.
But even so, Gilgamesh still wouldn't give him even a shred of face. This may be the characteristic of this king.
Tokiomi Tosaka had no choice but to obey - for the sake of victory in the Holy Grail War.
"But will he really agree to come back to you?"
Regarding this, Kotomine Kirei felt vaguely uneasy.
That king was not the type to agree to interrupt the battle so easily.
"When he comes back, I will try my best to convince him no matter what. After all, our interests are the same. As for Assassin, I need you."
"Should Saber be excluded first?" After pondering, Kotomine Kirei nodded.
From the current point of view, Saber is definitely Tohsaka Tokiomi's biggest enemy in the Holy Grail War.
It is also the top priority to exclude.
"Assassin will not refuse. In fact, Assassin also wants to kill Saber."
Kotomine Kirei said.
What he said is true.
Zuo Cun was really eager to try this.
Zuo Cun knew that he was not as strong as An Nuo, but that didn't mean that he wouldn't swing his sword at An Nuo.
"This is the best." Tokiomi Tosaka smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.
Archer and Assassin are both very independent servants. They don't really care about the relationship between the master and the servant. Assassin seems to have become friends with his students, and he and Archer are simply the masters and ministers. relation.
Archer is the king and he is the minister.
Archer's side is already very difficult to deal with, but luckily Assassin's side is not like this.
"Then, teacher, I will leave first. Assassin is still waiting for me to go back."
Kotomine Kirei stood up and bowed slightly to Tokiomi Tosaka.
Tokiomi Tosaka called him over just to finalize the matter of dealing with Saber.
Now that the matter has been explained clearly, he has no reason to stay here anymore. Who knows whether the news of their joining forces will spread.
Although it will naturally be known to everyone later, it is definitely best to do it later, at least it will not arouse the vigilance of Saber and her Master.
"By the way, Kirei, this is for you."
Putting down the half-drunk tea, Tokiomi Tosaka's slightly sad expression disappeared and turned into a trademark aristocratic smile.
He picked up a box next to him and put it on the table.
"Teacher, this is"
Kotomine Kirei looked at the box on the table in confusion.
"You are an excellent disciple, and the efforts you have made so far make me proud."
"Now that we are able to let our servants fight side by side, this is enough to show how outstanding you are."
Kotomine Kirei felt a wave of emotion in his eyes when he heard his teacher's praise.
"What is this, teacher?"
"This is a gift I give you in my personal name. Of course, in addition to gifts, there is also this."
Tokiomi Tosaka placed a letter sealed with wax on the box.
"This is.?"
Kotomine Kirei sat down again and picked up the envelope.
"This is my suicide note. Of course, I left it just in case. After all, this is the Holy Grail War."
A suicide note?
Kotomine Kirei obviously didn't expect that Tokiomi Tohsaka would hand over his suicide note to him, but it's not like he couldn't understand it.
As Tohsaka Tokiomi himself said, this is the Holy Grail War, and there is more than one strong opponent.
It is normal for some unexpected things to happen.
"In this letter, I stated my plans after my death. I will pass on the position of head of the Tohsaka family to Rin, and you, as my senior brother, will teach her magic and become her guardian after me. .”
Rin's mother is still alive in this world, but Aoi is not a magician and is not qualified to be her own daughter's guardian.
".I see."
Kotomine Kirei nodded and put away this suicide note which may or may not come in handy.
"Then, let's open the gift and take a look."
Kotomine Kirei looked at Tosaka Tokiomi's smile and picked up the box that was about the length of Mo's forearm.
Opening the box, a beautiful dagger was lying quietly in the box.
"[Mercury Sword] (Azoth), is its name."
Tokiomi Tosaka smiled and said, "This is proof that you have completed the Tosaka family's magic training."
". My disciple has no talent, but you gave me such a gift. Teacher, I don't know how to thank you."
Kotomine Kirei felt something and picked up the mercury sword.
"No need to thank you, Kirei. In fact, I should be the one to thank you, because only in this way can I confidently show off my skills in this Holy Grail War, and you and my master and disciple can fight together."
"It's getting late, and Archer should be back soon. Kirei, I won't keep you here."
"Wait until tomorrow. You can bring Assassin with you, and remember to take good care of your injuries."
".I understand, thank you, teacher."
Putting away the mercury sword properly, hugging his box, Kotomine Kirei left.
Tokiomi Tosaka stood by the window, watching Kotomine Kirei drive away, and sighed.
The Holy Grail War is so tiring
That's all. Next, we have to find a way to calm down the king's anger. Now we don't have so much time left to grieve for ourselves.
Let's go check it out. The house's magic circle——
Zheng——
Golden sword light flashed, and Tokiomi Tosaka's eyes widened slightly.
Right arm, pain.
Severe pain.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
"You don't need to appease my anger, Tokiomi."
The aloof king stood in front of him, raised his head, and looked down at him as if looking down at an ant.
"Originally, because you have been paying tribute to me with magic power, I have no intention of taking your life, but as a subject, you want to interfere too much."
"I, the king, do not need such ministers."
Zheng——
Poof——
