The large study room of the Tosaka House is filled with the aroma of rare sake.

The golden heroic spirit held the wine glass, looking sideways at the unobstructed view of the scene outside the window, with a bored expression.

"Tosaka Shichen, do you have an opinion on destroying the king's banquet, are you ready to give me advice with your life?"

Gilgamesh's voice was cold and unforgiving.

The one who knelt on the ground and greeted him as a courtier was his master, Tosaka Tokitomi, and while his hands trembled slightly, Tosaka Tosaka's eyes also flashed with surprise.

"Hero King, I don't mean to offend, I just have to do it just to find out the enemy's hole cards."

I don't know why, Tosaka Tokitomi noticed that Gilgamesh's interrogation was very solemn, with a faint coercion, which made him unconsciously raise his vigilance.

"Oh, do you think that I am stupid and incompetent, or do I want to deceive the king?"

"I don't mean that, please be aware of it." Tosaka squeezed the scepter in his hand tightly, trying his best to defend himself.

Gilgamesh turned his head sideways, his indifferent red eyes staring at the prostrate back of his minister, without any pity or warmth for his subordinates.

"Since you have treated me with the courtesy of your courtesy, and have offered magic as a tribute, I forgive you for your disrespect. But what you've done is ridiculous, and if there is a next time, you are no longer qualified to be my master. ”

Gilgamesh's words made Tosaka Tokitomi feel cold.

"No, Hero King, please listen to my explanation......" Shi Chen became anxious.

"Who has allowed you to discern? Are you questioning the king's decision? Tosaka Tokitomi, you must understand that if the uninteresting character is combined with ignorance, it will do unreasonable stupid things, although the people of the present world have degenerated into this kind of process, but the master should also have the duty of the master, at least it will not be annoying. ”

The golden Heroic Spirit angrily scolded his Master, throwing away the wine glass.

"You're not the only one who is the right master, Tosaka-Shichen."

“……”

Shi Chen's sweat wet the ends of his hair.

He stroked the spell in his hand, resisting the urge to give a command.

Why, why? Why do well-planned countermeasures always go awry? Obviously they have made enough preparations for the opponents of the Holy Grail War, but will accidents still happen? Even the King of Heroes is not a prop that can be trusted.

Tosaka staggered up from the carpet.

He was well aware that Gilgamesh's warning meant that the master-slave relationship was on the verge of a rupture.

In fact, this is somewhat inconsistent with the arrogant and cold but hedonistic character of this heroic spirit, maybe he is dissatisfied, but he will not say it directly, but it also means that more work must be done to prevent the heroic spirit from possible accidents.

Coalition Actions...... It's inevitable.

The spirited Gilgamesh looked down at the ascetic man who had entered the gate of the Tosaka family, but did not show any physical appearance.

◇

Far from the abandoned factories in densely populated areas, Kenneth Ermelo was a hideout.

The cold, damp, dilapidated and shabby environment is far inferior to that of a big hotel, and Kenneth even feels that the layout of the hotel is unbearable, and it is naturally even more unbearable here.

Previously, he was hiding here to guard against a sneak attack by Kiritsugu Emiya, but Kenneth didn't need to hide here now.

He signed a mandatory certificate with Aozaki Shi, and his idea of trying to make a name for himself with the help of the Holy Grail has been eclipsed, and if what Aozaki said is true, then he may have to thank that person for saving his life...... Phew, pretending to be a good person, only hating him for the fact that the contract has been made, with the rigor of self-imposed testimony, the current level of magic is just a fantasy, it is better to end the Holy Grail War journey as soon as possible.

But despite this, it wasn't until the early hours of the morning that Kenneth finally made up his mind.

"Lancer, this spell on you should reassure me." Kenneth muttered as he felt the vanishing spell.

"Of course, my lord, you have bothered."

Dilumudo knelt down on one knee and replied respectfully.

"Actually, I don't like you, lancer, the legend says that your seduction of the lord's fiancée is not as good as a beast! And the so-called chivalry makes you show mercy to Saber's subordinates, have you forgotten the oath you made to me? ”

"I have never forgotten my lord." Under Kenneth's reprimand, Dilumudo did not show a trace of dissatisfaction.

"It's nice to say, what if you haven't forgotten it, it's not that you haven't been able to kill Saber?!"

Green veins erupted on Kenneth's forehead, but when he thought of the contract, Kenneth's anger suddenly subsided: "But your cousin is still a loyal minister, although it is useless, but your loyalty is worthy of praise...... Hmph, I can understand your wishes a little, but your self-control is so bad, I'm sorry for your glorious name. ”

"I'm terrified to receive your appreciation!" Dilumudo replied hurriedly,

Dilumudo heard Kenneth's softened feelings, and his tone was a little surprised.

Although it was not a soft word, Kenneth did not treat him with disgust for the first time, and this contrast was especially acute under the observation of the Heroic Spirit, not to mention that he had been looking forward to fighting for the Lord with all his might, and he was greatly encouraged to be understood.

Kenneth's indifferent expression revealed a hint of helplessness: "It's not an appreciation, it's just a useless sigh for you." But even my puppets deserve to be rewarded for their loyalty, and I'll use one last spell to get you and the other servants to fight to your heart's content, so you'll be satisfied, Lancer. ”

Dilumudo's body shook, his head hanging lower, and his eyes were full of gratitude.

“…… I cannot thank you enough for your generosity, and I will use the Red Rose to show others your kindness and martial virtues. ”

"I don't expect ......"

"Kenneth, are you blaming Lancer again? It's not his fault. ”

The domineering and powerful female voice suddenly interjected, and the young woman with fiery red hair came over angrily and guarded Lancer's side like a protective lover.

Her anger, of course, was all directed at Kenneth, and in her, there was no closeness and maintenance of her fiancée to her fiancé, only endless insults.

"Sora...... I ......"

Kenneston felt bitter inside, and every question from Sora was an insult to his noble status, but he was reluctant to say even a single word to the woman he loved, no matter how hard it hit, he still loved this woman deeply.

Dilumudo looked up.

"My Lord ......"

Dilumudo's eyes lit up.

"What's wrong?" Kenneth asked.

"Something seems to be approaching us. Presumably the sound of an engine with an automatic drive. ”

Kenneth calmed down, patted his blue plush coat, told Sora to be safe, and then took out the test tube.

Although Kenneth didn't hear anything, the average person's hearing was far from being comparable to that of the Servant.

The uninvited guests who arrived before dawn probably did not come with good intentions.

When you think about it, when you decide to use this place as a base, it's almost time to reveal the camouflage barrier you've put on the surroundings... Kenneth didn't have to fortify and maintain the barrier anymore.

"Lancer, strike and defeat it at once, that's what I gave you." Kenneth didn't bother to break his word and immediately fulfilled his promise to the servant.

"Understood."

Dilumudo nodded, and immediately turned into a spirit and disappeared.
