"Well, be cautious - Qili, were you seen by anyone when you entered my house? You know, on the surface, we are still hostile. ”

According to Tosaka's arrangement, they deliberately released the distorted facts publicly.

Qili had been chosen by the Holy Grail three years ago, but according to the wishes of the minister, he had carefully concealed the brand of his right hand, and it was not until this month that the fact of receiving the curse was made public. After that, he pretended to be a colleague who was competing for the Holy Grail and broke with Shichen.

"Rest assured, whether visible or not, there is no magic or magic device to monitor this house, this ......"

"I can guarantee that."

With the insertion of a third person's voice, a black shadow loomed around Qili's distorted figure.

He had been accompanying Qili in the form of a spirit before, but now he appeared in front of Shi Chen.

This slender figure, with a magic that cannot be compared to humans, is the "inhuman existence". Dressed in a black robe and covered with a white skull mask, he can be described as a weirdo.

That's right, he is the first Servant to be summoned by the fourth incarnation to enter into a contract with Yan Feng Qili to perform the role of "assassin" - the Heroic Spirit named Hassan Sabaha.

"A little trick to hide the heroic spirit of my Hassan, a professional spy, and there is indeed no trace of my lord Qili being followed and monitored...... Rest assured. ”

He knew that Shi Chen's status was still above that of his master, Yan Feng Qili, and belonged to the position of the alliance leader, so the assassin bowed his head respectfully and reported.

Then she continued, "As soon as the Heroic Spirit summoned by the Holy Grail appears, my father will immediately know exactly which profession he belongs to. ”

As the overseer of the Holy Grail War, Father Rimasa, who is currently sent to the Fuyuki Church as a special priest, has a magic tool handed over by the church, called the "Spirit Weapon Plate", which has the function of displaying the attributes of the Heroic Spirit.

The identity of the Master can only be confirmed by the respective declarations, but as soon as the number of Servants who have been summoned and their occupations appear in the land, the Overseer will definitely be able to obtain relevant information through the "Spirit Disk".

"According to my father, the only Servant summoned is my assassin, and the other magicians are far from the stage of action."

"Hmmm! However, this is also a matter of time, and soon, this house will be surrounded by other demons placed by the Lord, because this place, like the Castle Mansion and the villa of the Einzberen family, has been determined to be the base of the Lord. ”

The advantage of foreign magicians over the three families is that they are in the shadows. Therefore, in the early stage of the Holy Grail War, the doors of any of the three major families were covered with espionage warfare.

Qili is not distrustful of Shichen's intelligence network, but he has to be wary of the remaining two unidentified commanders doing tricks and feet to hide their existence on this, if they really encounter such a strategic enemy, the "assassin" Servant obtained by Qili can play the greatest role.

"It's okay here, Assassin, keep on guard outside. Be careful. ”

"Yes."

After receiving Qili's instructions, the Assassin once again retreated into the void and disappeared from the house, and the Servant, who was essentially a spirit, was able to move between physical and non-physical with ease.

The Assassin has a special ability not found in other classes, "Breath Blocking", and no one can follow him when he disappears, summoning an Assassin is the best option for Kiri who is not hoping for victory but to support the Minister.

The strategy is basically as follows.

First of all, Qili's assassins went out to spy on each other, thoroughly investigating the operations and course of action of all the other masters, as well as the weaknesses of the Servants, etc., and then reviewing the plan of victory against each enemy, and then using his Servant to defeat each of them.

For this reason, Shichen's policy will be to summon a Servant who will completely enhance his attack power, but it is not known which Heroic Spirit he has his eye on.

"The holy relic I was looking for was finally delivered this morning." As if he had insight into Qili's inner thoughts, Shi Chen told him before asking, "It's exactly what I expected." The Servant I recruited can be said to be the overlord who stands out from the crowd. I'm afraid that among all the Heroic Spirits, there is no one who can match it. ”

Shi Chen smiled triumphantly, his natural arrogance and self-confidence overflowing.

"Let's do the summoning ceremony tonight - since there are no other orders to monitor now, Qili, you can also come and see, and then call the Lingzun."

"Is my father coming too?"

"Yes, if he is successfully summoned, we can say that we have won the battle, and I want to share this joy with everyone."

Such arrogant self-confidence, but it can be displayed without showing off, this is the temperament of Tosaka Shichen, this arrogance, so that Qili was stunned and couldn't help but admire him.

Qili suddenly noticed that the jewels were oscillating, and the stones written on the paper had not stopped.

"It seems that there are other follow-ups."

“…… Well? Ah, that's an investigation about the other side. It's not the latest news - I've commissioned someone to investigate the man who is afraid he will become the representative of the Einzberen family. ”

Information about the Einzberen family, cut off from the outside world, was difficult to obtain even from the London Clock Tower. But Shi Chen had long since expressed his attention to that Master. As soon as the paper fell on the desk, he picked up the report that the ink had not dried.

About nine years ago, Einzbergeren, who prides himself on his pure blood, suddenly welcomed a magician from outside. There are also some rumors within the association, but the only ones who really see through the true meaning are me and the old man of the Jian Tong family. The magicians of the Einzberen family, who have been immersed in the way of alchemy, basically do not have much combat power. The reason for the defeat in the Holy Grail War in the past lies entirely in this. Now they should not be able to sit still. Since it is a foreign aid recruited, there must be 'real materials'. ”

Shi Chen said as he skimmed through the printed paper, and then handed it to Qili.

Attracted by the title "Investigation Report: Emiya Kiritsugu", Kiri narrowed her eyes.

"The name...... I've heard of it and seems to be an extremely dangerous figure. ”

"Huh? Have even the Templars heard of it? Speaking of the 'magician killer' Emiya, it was also notorious at the time. On the surface, he is a lone ranger who has nothing to do with the association, but those high-level people have used him to do a lot of shady things. ”

"Like someone like an executor in the church?"

"It's even worse. He is a freeLancer assassin who specializes in magicians. Because he is a magician, he knows magicians very well, and he uses the means that magicians disdain to hunt down magicians...... He is such a person who calmly fights in a dirty way. ”

Hearing Shi Chen say this in a disgusted tone, Qili became interested in this man named Emiya Kiritsugu. I've heard rumors of him before, and it seems that I've had conflicts with the Templar Church in the past, and I've heard the advice of this person to be careful.

From the information available, much of the account is an investigation of the tactics used by Emiya Kiritsugu - the mysterious deaths and disappearances of the magicians who are presumed to have been his perpetrators, and the methods used in these cases.

Looking at it, Qili gradually began to understand when the minister was so jealous of this man, sniping and poisoning were still the methods of the beginning, and there were incredible records in the report about bomb attacks in public places, the crash of the passenger plane in which he was riding, and so on.

It is speculated that these tragic incidents, which were reported as terrorist attacks in the past, may have been committed by Emiya Kiritsugu in order to kill a magician, although there is no definite evidence, but the evidence cited is quite credible.

The assassin, so to speak, is an accurate description of him.

It is not uncommon for disputes between magicians to develop to the point of fighting each other, but they are often purely magical duels and are usually resolved in the form of duels.

The Holy Grail War is the same in this sense, although it is a "war", it is by no means a disorderly killing, it has a set of norms and rules to follow.

The above-mentioned "magician's routines" are not found in the battle records of Emiya Kiritsugu.

"The magician himself is an existence outside the laws of the world, and because of this, it is lawless to not obey the laws that he should follow." With anger in his calm voice, Shi Chen asserted, "But this person named Wei Gong is completely unscrupulous, and he does not have the slightest self-esteem that a magician should have, and this kind of person is unforgivable. ”

"Self-esteem...... Is it? ”

"Yes, didn't this man go through a lot of training in order to become a magician? In this case, there should be faith that can cope with this suffering. How can you forget your original wish after gaining power? ”

“……”

Shi Chen was wrong, he didn't have any purpose, he was just a fool who was immersed in hard work, and he existed in this world. Qili understands this better than anyone else.

"Then why did this Emiya Kiritsugu become a killer?"

"This is nothing more than money. After entering the Einzberen house, he basically stopped doing that kind of thing. After saving enough money to live the rest of his life, he naturally washed his hands - the report also said that he had done more than just assassinating magicians, and sometimes he would travel all over the world to find some extra money. ”

As Tokitomi said, at the end of the report, in addition to magician-related cases, Emiya Kiritsugu's resume is also listed in detail. I see, Kiritsugu is present in most of the world's conflicts, and it can be said that he is not only a killer, but also has done quite a lot of mercenary work.

“…… Can you lend me this document for a few days? ”

"Ahh
