In the empty cathedral, the gray-haired old priest paced back and forth.

The unsteady pace exposes the uneasiness in the owner's heart.

Tosaka Toshitomi had already ended the battle and talked to him, but the news from his son Yan Feng Qili was that he was captured by the magician of the Aozaki family, which was no less than a bolt from the blue for Yan Feng Li, who was a son of the old man.

Although Tosaka Toshitomi promised to do his best to rescue Qili, but Purple's whereabouts are very secretive, and neither the assassin nor the demon can be observed at close range, so far even Purple's stronghold has not been explored, and with his eyes black, it is not easy to find Qili's whereabouts in the vast Fuyuki City!

There was silence outside the church, and in the shadows of silence, I don't know how many pairs of eyes were watching the actions of the church, and the avengers who had returned from the hell called hatred came to the church in this uneasy silence.

"Neutral Overseer, in accordance with the terms of the Holy Grail War, the ninth-generation head of the Achipolud family asks the Church to protect my personal safety."

As a Master who had lost his servant, Kenneth's plea was rhetorically unassailable.

"Although you have lost the servant, you have also captured another master, who does not qualify as a vanquished, and as an overseer, I cannot accept your request for refuge."

Yan Fengli unceremoniously rejected Kenneth.

"Do you mean this by master?" Kenneth lowered his voice and pulled out a box wrapped in cloth.

Yan Fengli was feeling uneasy, but out of trust in the majesty of the church, he took the box given by Kenneth.

The lid was lifted.

“…… Gift! ”

Although the flesh and blood were blurred, based on the natural familiarity, Yan Fengli recognized the original owner of the head contained in the box.

Before he had time to heartache and question the murderer, the magician who arrived brazenly sacrificed the murder weapon.

"Filthy and nasty rats, you are also qualified as overseers of absolute neutrality? What a joke! With your son, make amends with your worthless life! ”

Kenneth sneered disdainfully, and the air-shattering wind blade mercilessly severed the old priest's body.

The old priest was divided into two separate parts, scattered on the floor of the temple of God.

In the moment of the priest's confusion, Kenneth completed the magic of killing, speaking of which, he is actually better at using séance magic and ceremonial clothes, but after suffering several losses under Zi's hands, Kenneth doesn't mind using ordinary magic tricks skillfully.

Kenneth looked at Yan Fenglizheng's body, lifted the hem of his coat, and flipped the priest's wrist.

Kenneth, known as the genius of the clock tower, is not limited to the study of magic, although the once absolutely obedient belief in inevitability has been broken, Kenneth has learned more from it, and even so, he still tastes the bitterness of defeat in this magician war.

The unforgettable blow did not break his tenacious character to a certain extent, but the old enemy who had broken his faith and swore revenge on him assisted him, which made him very uncomfortable, and with the constraints of the contract, the idea of revenge faded a lot. Thinking about it carefully, Purple has indeed been merciful many times, and her adaptability in magic battles is stronger than his, but under the unequal status and glory, these factors are naturally ignored.

Contrast is precious, and Kenneth's humiliation has been turned to these guys who teamed up to design him.

The first-class lecturer of the Clock Tower's séance, the future upper-class nobleman, and the famous magician of the Aqipolud family, was almost cornered by the sanctimonious Templar and hillbillies and the obscene mercenaries, and killed his fiancée.

"That's it."

Looking at the dark pattern on Yan Fengli's arm, Kenneth used the technique he knew, gradually shifting the spell held by the priest.

Although it may be more convenient to cut off the arm, Kenneth still has the self-esteem of a nobleman after all, and it is enough to be able to transfer the spell.

◇

The empty white walls are plastered with maps of the entire city of Fuyuki, and the maps are haphazardly painted with symbols and markers.

The icons marked out represent the information and events of each location of Fuyuki, but the icons that represent everything in every detail make the map look like a mosaic of chaos.

Emiya Kiritsugu sorted out the marks on the map in the hotel room, which was one of his hidden strongholds, and at the hotel in front of Shinto Station, the hotel room service had all been stopped, and no one would disturb him.

Combing through the events of the past few days, Emiya Kiritsugu's expression became very distressed.

The movement of the Holy Grail War is not difficult to judge, if the eighth servant a few days ago disrupted the pattern, then after Aosaki appeared, the confrontation between the Tosaka family and the Aozaki family is a clearly visible development, not a situation that stirs up a pool of troubled waters.

But the situation was not conducive to his plans.

Although he assisted the Tosaka family to defeat the help of Aozaki Purple Lancer, but the subsequent death of Berserker meant that the Aozaki family fell into an equilibrium with the Tosaka family, although he wanted to kill one of Tosaka Shichen or Aozaki Murasaki, but Archer and the girl in white both looked at the master's situation, and rashly shot was tantamount to suicide, and Aozaki Purple has not exposed too many hole cards so far, and the death of the old monster of the Maki family is also unknown, so it can only be kept temporarily.

Caster, lancer, and assassin are all confirmed dead, and the rest is Rider except for his own Saber.

Webber Wilwitt doesn't need to worry, but the treasure called the "King's Army" used by Rider is very concerning, and Rider's attitude will determine which side the balance of battle will tilt in the future, and also, Weber's teacher Kenneth, that is, the owner of Lancer, was rescued by Aozaki Murasaki, although he lost his servant, but the magician's combat power must also be counted.

Is Yan Feng Qili really dead?

Emiya Kiritsugu sighed deeply, put down his pen and lit his cigarette.

For Kiritsugu, he still couldn't understand what the purpose of this man was participating in this war, but it was even more difficult for him to believe that this man, who was regarded as a great enemy, was captured in this way.

He can say with certainty that he has lost the Assassin, and Yan Feng Qili will definitely stand in front of Emiya Kiritsugu to block his way. Whatever this man's code of conduct is, it is beyond the scope of the Holy Grail War. Even after losing Servant, Yan Feng Qili will not quit honestly, because his target is Emiya Kiritsugu himself, so after facing this threat, it is even more difficult for Emiya Kiritsugu to accept the fact that this man is a mermaid.

Cangqi Zi can catch Yan Feng Qili, so what about him?

Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't see through this enemy.

Kiritsugu's tactic is to "upset the opponent's heart" throughout. Where the enemy is ready to attack, what is the enemy's goal, as long as you can see through the opponent's actions in advance, you can find the opponent's blind spots and weaknesses. Moreover, as a magician, you generally have a higher "sense of purpose" than ordinary people. Because of this, Kiritsugu can never miss a hand in the "hunt".

But Aosaki's purpose and actions are elusive, and this kind of enemy who does not play cards according to the rules is a strong enemy of Emiya Kiritsugu.

Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't help but feel irritable.

While Emiya Kiritsugu was lost in thought, the phone rang suddenly.

It's Maiya's call.

After receiving it, Maimi's first sentence made him feel like he was struck by lightning.

"Miss Elijah has fainted, and Madame says that Miss Elijah has absorbed the soul of the servant."

As if heavy thorns had pressed down on his shoulders, Emiya Kiritsugu's face became extremely ugly.

The sound of heavy objects cracking sounded in the hotel.
