The final chapter, the secret conversation of the dawn
"You're here. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Carl's voice was as clear as ever.
Because it is a hotel, the layout of each room is much the same. In a space very similar to Tsukahara Mineshi's room, Carl is sitting at a table with a bottle of energy drink in front of him, which the hotel keeps in his room for guests to take at will.
Ah, by the way, it's just [free to use], no one says it's [free] free to use.
Hearing the look of conviction in his breezy voice, Archer's brow furrowed slightly.
This feeling of being controlled is definitely not good.
"You know I'm coming?"
Archer's tone, though a little questioning, was more of an instinctive disgust.
This is also known as "same-sex expulsion", two people who are very similar will become enemies because they understand each other too much and are too terrifying. That's why dolls are so appealing, but realistic dolls are always a horror movie favorite.
Archer knew that Carl was an extremely efficient, almost mechanical magician, calm, cruel, and unscrupulous.
At the same time, Carl also understands that Archer is not a heroic spirit with too much sense of honor, and like himself, she has an unscrupulous personality to achieve the end, as well as a pragmatic style of thinking.
If Carl had summoned her, then the two must have been a match made in heaven.
It's a pity that the two are enemies. The two who were already too similar were wary of each other at this time because of each other's good nature.
Carl believed that Archer's gun would be aimed at his temple whenever he had the chance. Archer is also convinced that as soon as his use value is over, he will definitely do everything he can to kill himself.
"I knew you were coming. ”
Carl changed his posture and let his body sink into the hard gap of the wooden chair as relaxed as possible, trying to use this position instead of sleep, to relax his body.
Archer breathed a sigh of relief, trying to calm his emotions.
At least, there is no profit point in taking out Karl now. Even if you want to turn against each other, you have to wait until you exclude any three of Lancer, Rider, Berserker, and Saber.
"So, you should know what I'm here for, right?"
"Probably the same as Leonardo da Vinci. I guess I didn't know that I was a magician. ”
“…… Yes. ”
Archer hesitated for a moment, then nodded decisively in acknowledgement.
Carl smiled: although it was stupid to take the initiative to talk to himself about it, given Archer's skills, it could only be said to be smart.
If someone knows that the other party is a person who hides his identity and wants to confront him face to face, then he must be an idiot.
Because everyone has hidden their identities, you have to pursue them, at least the relationship is broken, the friendship is cracked, and the most important is that the two completely break up and become mortal enemies, in order to keep the secret of their identity, suddenly kill the killer, and the dead will keep the secret.
However, for Archer, this unwise behavior turned out to be very clever.
Because in her retention skills, she has three life-saving means at the same time: [Stealth], [Retreat] and [Spiritualization]. If she really tried to kill her, then she would definitely be able to escape, and take the opportunity to break with Tsukahara Mingshi and herself.
If you don't try to kill her, then you have only two options: telling the truth and being sloppy. Playing sloppy will make her continue to distrust herself, but it still gives her the truth, so that she can make Tsukahara Mingshi break with herself.
If truth be told, Archer knows himself......
No matter how you calculate it, it's not a loss.
Is there anything more enjoyable than gambling that you will never lose?
Carl figured this out, and he smiled: "It's really a heroic spirit, Leonardo da Vinci discovered this because of his knowledge of the human body, so what about you? Why did you find out that I wasn't a magician?"
"Because of the smell. ”
Carl chuckled and sniffed his clothes in a witty and funny manner. This kind of relaxed and frivolous action, Tsukahara Mingshi has never seen him do it.
Because, when he was in the clock tower, at all times, he was a bitter and bitter cold face.
Seeing him pretending to be stupid like this, Archer's heart felt a chill, and her beautiful eyes flowed, and she added: "Because you have the same smell as us." ”
"The smell of the forest? Heh, I'm just kidding. Say...... Let's act in the dark of the dark taste. I have to describe it in one word...... It's [Assassin's unique professional atmosphere], right?"
Carl smiled, and Tsukahara Mingshi knew, Carl's calm face was completely different, and now Carl was full of evil aura, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed, looking cold and tyrannical.
His eyes were full of pride and hatred, and he was simply the embodiment of revenge.
"Got it. My goal is not the Holy Grail. So, I don't conflict with your goals. You want Tsukahara to get the Holy Grail, and my purpose is to participate in the Holy Grail War...... And then...... Revenge. ”
Karl's voice revealed a chilling hatred, Archer was a servant, as a spirit, she most intuitively felt the pitch-black hatred that was entwined around Carl's body, and the cold and turbulent black and blue sea of fire surged around his body, bursting from his resentful eyes.
(This hatred...... It's not fake. )
(He's real...... I hate it so much...... )
Archer couldn't help biting his lip, as a heroic spirit, he was instantly shocked by the hatred he displayed...... What kind of anger is that......
"So...... Carl Winster is your pseudonym, isn't it?"
"Nope. ”
Karl shook his head.
"That's someone else's name. I just borrowed his name and his family heirloom magic inscription. ”
The blonde man in front of him said bloody sentences without any waves.
It's okay to say the name, but the magic mark can only be inherited by the patriarch of the family...... As an outsider, there is only one way for him to obtain a magic mark......
Archer hadn't heard Tsukahara mention Karl about it, otherwise, she would have reacted immediately, what the man meant by his words ......
The Winster family's disaster two years ago was not caused by a simple natural disaster.
In other words, whether it is to go to Japan for the revival of the Winster family, or to participate in the Holy Grail War for the revival of the Winster family, it is a lie.
"So, may I ask, who are you going to take revenge on?"
"Aya Makiri. ”
Without hesitation, categorically.
Karl's eyes burst into flame-black color.
"I'm sure that this woman, who has rotted from the inside to the outside, has definitely come to participate in the Holy Grail War. As the Maki family of the Imperial Three Family, she will definitely have a spell. With her rotten character, she must ...... Think of the Holy Grail War as your hunting ground...... Have fun, right? I have only one goal, to kill this woman in the course of the Holy Grail War. As for the Holy Grail or something, you can give it to you if you want. I don't care. ”
“…… Are you telling me all this just so that I can help you?"
"One of the foundations of an alliance is to exchange [true purposes] with each other and find out the best profit from each other, isn't it?"
Karl?'s voice finally regained its composure, but ...... Archer couldn't see him the way he used to.
Indeed, as Karl said, one of the bases of an alliance is the exchange of real purposes between the two sides. However, this real purpose may also be false...... The choice of this depends on the wisdom of the Covenanters.
"So, what will happen to my Master?"
"I don't know. That's his business. At least I'm not going to shoot at him. The target of my hunt, from beginning to end, is only one person. That's it, Archer, can you believe me?"
"No, you can't. ”
Archer responded with the same crispness, her clear eyes with a stern look of distrust.
"That's right. If you can believe me, I'll have to consider whether or not to form an alliance with other good-brained Heroes. ”
Listening to Karl?, it seems to be glad that Archer doesn't believe in himself.
This is also natural, this kind of heroic spirit who listens to others and believes anything they say is undoubtedly a brain problem.
"But, until your true colors are revealed, I don't mind assisting you outside of work. If you're telling a lie......"
"[I shudder when I see green], right?"
Karl calmly repeated Archer's previous words.
"It's good to know...... Then I'll go back first......"
"Nope. Since you're here......"
Carl propped himself up on the table with one hand.
"Well, let's go on patrol. It was also dawning, and there was a place where I thought you should go with me. ”
――――――――――――――
Somewhere, somewhere.
"The First Battle of the Holy Grail War...... Has it already begun? I've already fought two battles in one night......"
The slightly older voice muttered to himself.
Through the demons, he clearly saw the fierce offensive and defensive battles that took place on the artificial river and around the Ice Castle.
"Lancer and rider...... They are all warriors like no other in the world...... But...... Compared to my strongest saber...... Scold...... Still not worth mentioning. Really...... In other words, what could threaten Saber are Archer, Caster, and Berserker......"
His voice was slightly dull, and in the dark space, his long, helpless sigh was heard.
"That's it. Just bear with me. Let's wait until the identities of the three Heroic Spirits are confirmed. A little variable...... Nor can there be ...... cough cough cough ......"
He coughed violently, the smell of blood gradually spreading in the air, accompanied by the sound of sticky water, the air was humid and muggy.
"My dream...... Definitely not here...... Die. Until then, a little bit of variable...... There can be no ...... Hold on...... My body ......"
