The sword has always been there.
It represents the throne, royal power, responsibility, and stability.
As long as Anno pulls out the sword, Britain will gain peace.
It can be done with Annuo's methods.
Arturia, who was not yet King Arthur, knew it, King Uther knew it, and Merlin also knew it.
Even Anno himself knows it.
But he didn't pull it out.
Is it really just because of so-called "loyalty"?
From the perspective of future generations, if Anno had pulled out that sword, he might not have done worse than King Arthur.
Only Annuo himself knew why he didn't draw his sword.
It was an almost inhumane expectation, and the reason was simply that he didn't want to become a king.
He didn't think he was suited to sit in that position, so he declined, and that was that.
He believed that Artoria could give Britain a better future, so he put all his efforts into cultivating Artoria, thus completely giving up on the situation in Britain at that time, and even gave up on King Uther. After years of fighting, he gave up the foundation he had built up by himself, and gave up on the White Knights.
Just for that expectation.
So Annuo regrets it.
He knew from the beginning that this plan was inappropriate. It was unreasonable to place the responsibility of an entire country on the shoulders of a young girl. King Uther and Merlin's plan was cruel and cruel, but he still He did as he was told and gave up becoming the king just to assist the new king.
He really regrets it.
He destroyed a girl named Artoria.
Arthur is a qualified king and an excellent and great leader.
But she shouldn't be a king.
This is cruel to Artoria.
Anno had the chance to stop this, but he didn't. He became the one who personally pushed Arturia to the throne.
He thought for a moment and gave Emiya Kiritsugu the answer.
"Because I am a hopeless person."
He placed the food in front of Emiya Kiritsugu, then took the plate and left.
Emiya Kiritsugu sat there, silent, picked up the bowl, and carefully fed Irisviel.
A hopeless person?
A person who can only be defeated by time is a hopeless person.
Emiya Kiritsugu left after breakfast.
The bug he placed far away in Kotomine Kirei's residence captured a glimmer of useful information.
Rider is indeed following Archer's traces, and Assassin's target is undoubtedly Saber.
The four remaining Servants from the Holy Grail War split the battle into two parts as if they had agreed upon it.
Just as Saber predicted.
How to deal with Assasin's next move is the most critical question.
but.
The familiar created by Maiya has no effect at all.
Assassin's insight is terrifying, as if he can see evil intentions. The familiar often dies in various inexplicable places. There is no doubt that it is Assassin's fault. This also leads to the fact that even if the familiar passes through the path of death, Assassin's movement track cannot be detected. Now Kuu Maiya's familiar no longer goes out for exploration missions. Instead, it stays around the new stronghold and conducts patrol activities to prevent Assassin from directly knocking on the door.
"."
Looking at the situation map, Emiya Kiritsugu fell into rare silence.
The road before him seemed to be——
Only one remains.
"If we don't want Assassin to gradually grasp the situation, our next action, the best way is to take the initiative to attack."
He looked at the Assassin stronghold on the map and said to Kuu Maiya and Annuo in the communication.
"Let Assassin take the initiative to show up and fight Saber. This is our best way."
"Saber will deal with Assassin, and Maiya will assist me to deal with Kotomine Kirei."
He wanted to place explosives around Assassin, Kotomine Kirei's stronghold, but there was no way he could succeed. He would be accurately caught almost every time and then escape.
If he hadn't escaped, Emiya Kiritsugu would probably be dead now.
"Saber."
Emiya Kiritsugu first called out, then remained silent for several seconds before continuing.
"Let Ms. Kazu take care of Irisviel."
"You and Maiya, come to me before tomorrow morning."
In the end, he chose to believe Annuo.
Why?
Is it because he is a hopeless person?
Emiya Kiritsugu was a little confused.
He could feel that he was getting closer and closer to what he was chasing.
But precisely because he was getting closer, he had more doubts and questions in his heart.
but--
that's right.
So he must go all the way to the dark side.
As for why I chose to start trusting the "tool" Saber.
Perhaps it's because Emiya Kiritsugu himself is a "hopeless person".
"Assassin, what's the catch?"
It was late at night, and Kotomine Kirei was still wearing the priest-like attire.
Although it looks slim and thin, in fact, this is the equipment that can best utilize Kotomine Kirei's strength.
not to mention.
He still has the dagger given to him by Zuo Cun.
That is a weapon sharper and harder than any black key.
"They are hiding, and we are also hiding, but there is one thing we are at a disadvantage."
There was a map of Fuyuki City in front of Zuomura.
"That is we have never hidden our stronghold."
"But maybe that's why we can turn this into an advantage."
There was danger in Zuocun's eyes.
"That magician killer has used dirty tricks against us more than once. If he doesn't retaliate, I always feel a little disgusted."
"I'm not a magnanimous person."
He really isn't.
In the battle at Weiyuanchuan, he was attacked by a sneak attack and almost rolled back to the Seat of Heroes.
This is a shame and even more worthy of anger.
".I see."
Kotomine Kirei smiled happily.
He understood what Zuocun meant.
"They should attack our stronghold next - all the arrangements around the stronghold have failed. If they don't try to attack by force, I will wonder if the villain is really brainless."
"So... can you solve it?"
"The magician killer?"
Zuo Cun narrowed his eyes.
"I have no idea."
Kotomine Kirei answered calmly.
"But - I will kill him."
"I'm going to get some answers from him before I kill him."
Kotomine Kirei's eyes held the same danger as Samura's.
"Then I'll leave this matter to you. I'm just the person responsible for killing people."
Zuo Cun rolled over and fell to the front of the game console.
"I already don't want to get out of here anymore. I need to take advantage of now to play more games."
Picking up the handle, the Eagle of Reform soaring in the sky behaves like an Internet-addicted teenager at this moment.
Seeing Samura like this, Kotomine Kirei had no other emotions. He just smiled, then stood up and went to do the "arrangement".
