Night still envelops the Einzberen Forest, dark and quiet. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Traces of fierce battles can be seen everywhere, and the castle that was cleaned up by the maids specially brought from the country was severely damaged in the battle between Emiya Kiritsugu and Kenneth. Even if you want to do the repairs, the maids who are in charge of the chores have already returned to China.

Alice Phil sighed and walked through the hallway, trying not to pay attention to the ruinous scene.

Fortunately, there are still a few bedrooms that have not been poisoned, and Maiya Kuyu is resting in one of them. Although Alice Fell had already cast healing magic on her, Einzbelen's healing magic was originally a considerable burden on the wounded, as it evolved from alchemy, not to regenerate the wounded's flesh, but to transform it into new tissue through magic.

If the other party is an artificial person, it would be fine, but now it is a treatment of humans, and according to modern medicine, it is equivalent to a major surgery like organ transplantation. Exhausted, Maiya is in a state of stupor, and it will take a long time to recover if she wants to regain consciousness and move her body freely.

Alice Phil, who had just undergone surgery, did not have time to rest, and Emiya Kiritsugu and Saber were still waiting for her in the restaurant.

The air in the dining room, which serves as a makeshift meeting room, is terrifyingly heavy.

Emiya Kiritsugu sat at the long table tending to her firearms, and Saber stood across from her, hands behind her back, motionless like a statue.

Alice Phil is used to such situations, and the relationship between the master and the slave has not been good because of the difference in philosophy. Emiya Kiritsugu thinks the Knight King is pedantic and naïve, and the Knight King thinks Emiya Kiritsugu is despicable, and Alice Phil tries to reconcile it several times, but to no avail.

Now, Alice Phil only hopes that the two will not have any conflict, so that she will be satisfied.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is softened by the arrival of Alice Fair, the beloved wife of Emiya Kiritsugu and the "princess" that Saber is willing to protect, whose innocence and strength can contag people's hearts.

Alice Phil sat across from Kiritsugu, as usual, closest to Saber.

"When will Maiya be available?" said Kiritsugu, causing Saber to frown.

What does it mean to be usable? This is a human being, not a weapon in your hand!

Alice Phil didn't bother with Kiritsu's tone, after this period of contact, she had already felt the bond between her husband and Kuyu Maiya that outsiders couldn't understand, and just said truthfully: "She can't move in the past two days." ”

"Well, I'll act alone next, and you guys will be here on standby. Kiritsugu said as he closed the suitcase where the sniper rifle was kept, and was about to get up and leave.

"Now, Kiritsu, did you say that Ahadeon sent other lords besides us to the war?"

Hearing his wife's question, Kiritsugu's indifferent expression finally fluctuated slightly.

"Why do you ask?"

"Well, I met someone before, and she repelled Yan Feng Qili and saved me and Miss Maiya...... She looks exactly like me, and is supposed to be the same model of android as me. ”

“......”

Kiritsugu fell silent, and after a while he confirmed the letter with suspicion.

"Are you saying that someone who looks like you saved you and repelled Yan Feng Qili?"

"Yes, that's right. Alice Phil nodded.

"Describe in detail how she dressed, as well as the process of repelling Yan Feng Qili, from her appearance to leaving, how detailed and detailed can I be, I want to know every detail. ”

Kiritsugu had the feeling that an unseen hand was reaching out to them.

......

"Looks like you, uses a special thread as a weapon, can manipulate your wire, it seems that it is indeed the artificial person of the Einzberren family - Ellie, has your 'life form' taught anyone else?"

"I didn't tell anyone but Illya. "Alice Phil didn't even know about Kiritsugu's development of battle magic, so how could she tell anyone," and I feel that she is much better at manipulating silk threads than I do, and if I can, I really want to learn from her for a while. ”

"It's true that being able to repel Yan Feng Qili proves that her magic skills and combat experience are top-notch, but that doesn't make sense. ”

Kiritsugu had lived in the Einzberen family for nine years, and he knew the family very well. In his opinion, the matter itself is full of doubts.

Suspicion one, that woman's abnormal combat effectiveness. The Einzberen family is really not good at fighting, as long as you are prepared, Kiritsugu is sure to destroy the Einzberen family by himself.

At first, Kiritsugu thought it was someone pretending to be or his wife had fallen for an illusion, but he quickly rejected it. Appearance is easy to disguise, but magic is difficult, and the possibility of illusion in Alice Fell under the protection of the enchantment is extremely low, and everything proves that the woman is really from the Einzberen family.

This fact in itself is the second doubt.

Kiritsugu had read Einzberen's information, and the manufacturing process of the little chalice model android was complex and extremely expensive, even the wealthy Einzberen family could not afford to make more than one at a time, and there was no need to repeat the production.

Ahad also said that Alice Phil was the only one in the Little Grail, and that she had to be protected. Ahad can't lie, and there's no need to lie, and since he says so, then Alice Phil is the only one of the little chalice type androids, so where did that woman come from?

Survivors of the previous Holy Grail War?No way, the Minor Holy Grail androids will eventually become sacrifices to summon the Holy Grail, without exception. Even if the summoning ritual is stopped, their lifespan is shorter than that of humans, and they will not live to live now.

Even if she has survived until now, why did she save Alice Phil?

Speaking of sisterhood, it's impossible, how can there be feelings if you haven't seen it in person. Moreover, Einzbelen's androids are not much different from machines except for Alice Phil, do they really know what feelings are?

Putting aside these two doubts, which could not be answered for a while, there was one more thing that Kiritsugu cared about - the Assassin's actions.

It's not surprising that the Assassin can avoid the detection of the barrier, this job itself is characterized by stealth maneuvers, and the queen of the Shadow Country is the highest level of warrior and magician, so it is not difficult to crack such an enchantment. The question is, why did she show up with that woman?

Coincidental?

Kiritsugu didn't believe it, that woman probably had something to do with the Assassin. This would explain why the Assassin's Master had ordered the Assassin to help Saber last night, and that woman's actions to repel Yan Feng Qili tonight would also make sense.

But in this way, it is impossible to explain the Assassin's action to stop Kiritsugu from killing Kenneth and save Kenneth while helping Alice Phil at the same time? Isn't this a contradiction? It can't really be like Saber said, "help Saber once, help Lancer once", this is a war, not a game, and the queen of the Shadow Nation is not a knight.
