Chapter 50: The Battle of the Magician and the Magician Killer I
Now that the lancer has appeared, it is not difficult to predict that Kenneth will attack the castle. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Whether it's Shinji, who is familiar with the plot, or Emiya Kiritsugu, who has hunted many magicians, they all know that these guys are more rational than emotional, and if they are bad, they are selfish.
For Kenneth, who had already consumed a spell, the Overseer's offer to reward the caster was something he wanted anyway. It's just that even if you defeat Caster here, the result will be equivalent to becoming a common front with Saber. Einzbelen's master should also be given an additional spell, which is not what he wants to see.
Kenneth decides to leave Caster to Lancer and infiltrate the castle alone, where he wants to get rid of Saber's master and monopolize the Spell.
Although this is the stronghold of the Einzberen family for many years, Kenneth is full of confidence, because he is the head of the Aqipolud family, the most prestigious genius of the clock tower, the magician who ascended to the "color position" at a young age, and a mere self-enclosed android family that is not good at fighting, how can he stop him?
But that's Kenneth's truest thoughts, even through the surveillance cameras set up all over the castle, and through the magical vision given by the barrier, Emiya Kiritsugu and Yustiza can feel Kenneth's pride that soaks into the bone.
Yustiza, who remained in her spirit state, frowned unconsciously, and the master of the lancer reminded her of several examples of Skahati being defeated by her opponent because of her pride and conceit.
And looking at Emiya Kiritsugu's expressionless face, just silently tidying up the table and preparing the weapon, she strengthened her judgment.
Suddenly, she reached out and gently touched the center of her brow—when did she learn to frown?
When did you learn to analyze people's psychology and be happy or dissatisfied with it?
It must have been influenced by Shinji, but there's nothing wrong with it.
"Don't you think it's ridiculous for an android who doesn't know about humans to say that they want to help humans?" - this is what Shinji said when she first met Yustiza, and she couldn't understand it at the time, but now she understands it somewhat.
At this time, Kenneth had already arrived at the main gate of the castle, and even a famous family like him had a high opinion of the castle of the Einzberen family. Compared with the luxury hotels that were simply piled up with money, it was obvious that this quaint Nordic castle was more in line with his appetite.
"After taking out Einzbelen, it would be a good idea to take this city as a new stronghold. ”
As for the abandoned factory where he was hiding, hehe, Kenneth would never admit that it was his stronghold, and his beloved fiancée, Sora, had sneered at him many times over it.
Thinking of this, Kenneth's possessiveness became stronger and stronger.
"It was decided to keep the damage to the building as low as possible. ”
Kenneth smiled indistinctly, picked up a test tube in his white-gloved right hand, and slowly poured the silver liquid into the ground.
“fervor,meisanguis。 (Boil, my blood)"
As soon as the magic spell was chanted, the solution that seemed to be only 100 milliliters began to expand wildly as soon as it left the test tube, and finally expanded into a silver sphere with a diameter of nearly one meter.
This is Kenneth's trump card, and it is also the result of which he is proud, and it is also one of the magic dresses that Shinji wants the most.
The name of the costume is "Moon Spirit Liquid", and it is a unique battle costume created by Kenneth by combining his dual attributes of Feng Shui with his best skill in fluid manipulation magic.
The essence of that silver sphere is specially treated mercury, which Kenneth can manipulate at will, and there is no fixed shape of mercury, which can be molded into any shape.
"Automatoportumdefensio (self-disciplined defense). ”
"Autonlatoporiunlquaerere (automatic claim). ”
"dilectusincursio (auto-attack). ”
As Kenneth whispered, the lump of mercury rustled across the surface as if in response, and followed him to the castle gates.
"scalp!"
Kenneth gave the order, and part of the mercury ball suddenly turned into a long, thin ribbon that extended upward, and then the ribbon of mercury slammed like a whip towards the gate.
Just as it was about to hit it, the whip of mercury suddenly compressed into a thin plate with a thickness of only a few microns, becoming a blade as sharp as a razor. As a result, under the sharp blade of mercury, the heavy latch was cut in half like sliced tofu, and the door fell inward with a heavy sound.
Mercury is a very heavy liquid at room temperature, and when it moves at high speeds under high pressure, it has a powerful momentum. In addition, mercury can be freely transformed into various shapes such as whips, guns, knives, etc., and its sharpness can even surpass that of lasers.
In front of the Moon Spirit Essence, no matter how strong the substance is, it makes no difference, whether it is titanium alloy or diamond, it cannot resist the mercury blade, unless it is also attached with a special mystery.
After clearing the obstacle in front of him, Kenneth walked leisurely towards the halls of the city.
The crystal chandeliers in the hall shine brightly, and there is not a single blemish on the very smooth polished marble floor. The air was also unusually quiet, with only Kenneth alone, and no one came out to greet him.
This is also a matter of course, as soon as she became aware of Kenneth's presence, Alice Fell left the castle under the escort of Maiya Kuyu, leaving Emiya Kiritsugu alone to face the enemy. With Emiya Kiritsugu's unscrupulous style, how could he be stupid enough to confront Kenneth?
And Kenneth still doesn't know who he needs to face, no, even if he does, he won't care.
"Kenneth Al Meloy, the ninth generation of the Achipoulud family, is here. ”
Kenneth proclaimed loudly in the empty hall.
"O magician of Einzberen, I have staked my life and glory for the Holy Grail, and I have come to share the victory with you. ”
No one responded, as if they weren't expecting a duel with Kenneth.
If Shinji saw this scene, he would sneer and shake his head and complain: "Director Ken, you chose the wrong place." ”
If he doesn't come to trouble Einzberen, but enters the Tosaka Mansion in this way. Tosaka Tokitomi, who is also a traditional magician and values the elegance and pride of magicians, will inevitably show up to fight Kenneth in a dignified manner.
If it's the Kiri's family...... Dear, if you don't count Dilumudo, if you can break the door, you win.
ps: There is a difference between the anime and the original novel, in the novel, Kenneth's moon spirit essence is directly contained in a clay pot, a total of ten liters. Guys, ten liters, Director Ken is holding such a thing, and he is forced to burst in an instant. In the animation, it was changed to a test tube to solve, which is worthy of the identity of Director Ken.
PS2: Scalp, transliterated as Sculp - there is a book friend whose name is this, is it from here?
