Chapter 9: Assassin Out

The idea that it's three o'clock in the morning is silent is inappropriate for magicians and servants.

In the darkness of the night, the heroic spirits hiding in the shadows are constantly carrying out reconnaissance and assassination activities that cannot be taken lightly.

Especially for the magicians in this Fuyuki City, there are two main places that need to be concerned, and that is the two luxurious and magnificent Western-style houses that stand on the hills of the city, the Maki family and the Tosaka family.

The city of the Master, who is right there with the Holy Grail as the goal, has been roaming around the neighborhood day and night for the purpose of reconnaissance these days. But. The owner of the pavilion had long been prepared for this level of reconnaissance, and had already erected more than ten or twenty enchantments around the foreign pavilion for the purpose of reconnaissance and defense. In the sense of magic, there is no difference between the two Western-style pavilions and the fortress.

Without the master's consent, even a human with magical powers would not want to step into the barrier even half a step, let alone those servants who seemed to be huge magic crystals, so it was impossible for either an entity or a spirit to sneak into this fortress-like barrier without being noticed.

However, there is an exception to this impossibility that can be made possible, and the Assassin's ability to cut off the breath is one such exception.

Although he does not have a strong combat ability, the Assassin is able to suppress his mana to almost zero, allowing him to approach his target like an invisible shadow.

Furthermore, for the Servant and Assassin who is the Foreman of Yanfeng Qili, tonight's infiltration mission is too simple, because what he is infiltrating now is not the mansion of the nemesis Kiri, but the mansion of Shichen Yingsaka, who has been his ally of Master Qili until yesterday.

Of course, Assassin knew about Qili and Shichen secretly forming allies behind the backs of other masters, and in order to protect the secret agreement between the masters, Assassin had served as a guard in Tosaka's mansion many times, so he had already investigated the configuration and density of the enchantment here, and of course he was well aware of the blind spots.

The Assassin expertly dodged the intricacies of the enchantment while in his spirit state, while secretly laughing at Tosaka Tokitokitomi's ridiculous fate.

The arrogant magician seemed to have a lot of trust in Qili, who was his subordinate, but he could never have imagined that the puppy he had raised for so many years would bite his hand in turn.

Qili ordered the Assassin to kill Shichen.,It was less than an hour ago.,Although it's not sure what caused Qili to have murderous intent.,But I'm afraid it's caused by Shichen summoning the Servant a few days ago.,I heard that the Servant who made a contract with Shichen seems to be Archer.,But through observation,This heroic spirit is even more fragile than Qili imagined.。

From this point of view, there is no benefit in continuing to cooperate with Shi Chen, maybe because of this, he will give such an order tonight.

"There's no need to be too cautious, even if you want to go head-to-head with Archer, there's nothing to worry about, you must quickly take out Tosaka Tokitomi."

This is the instruction of Master Qili, even the Assassin with the lowest combat ability should "not be afraid" when he fights with him - it can be seen that the heroic spirit of Archer summoned by Shichen must be very disappointing to Qili.

Thinking about it, the Assassin has come to the final barrier, there are no blind spots in the enchantment, and if you want to pass through here, you must destroy the enchantment by physical means to eliminate it in order to move forward, which is something that cannot be done in the invisible spirit state.

Hiding in the shadow of the plants, the Assassin began to transform from a spirit to a physical body, and a slender body with a skull mask began to appear.

At this time, he arrived at a place that was different from the other enchantments in Tosaka, and many "sights" shot from a distant place. These are probably the demons of the other masters who are watching the mansion outside of the barrier.

However, as long as they are not discovered by Toshitomi, these peeking guys can be ignored, and as competitors who also target the Holy Grail, they have no reason to notify Tosaka Toshitomi that the Assassin has infiltrated the news.

For this kind of slaughter between competitors, everyone will take a bystander attitude and watch from the side.

The Assassin snickered as he reached out to the outermost barrier sealing point—

At the moment when his hand was extended, a shining spear flew like lightning directly above him, and pinned his hand to the ground through the back of his hand.

“……!?”

Intense pain, fear, and even more consternation.

Deeply surprised by the sudden blow of the dazzling gun, the Assassin looked up with a look of incredulity on his face to look for the person who threw the gun.

No, there is no need to look for it at all.

On the roof of the Tosaka Mansion stood an unusually magnificent golden figure, a god-like majesty that could even dim the stars and the moon in the sky.

The Assassin had completely lost the rage of his wound and the pain of his wound, and all he had in his heart now was the fear of that overwhelming sense of majesty.

"Ants lying on the ground, who allowed you to raise your head?" The golden figure looked down at the Assassin lying on the ground with his burning red eyes, and questioned in a contemptuous tone.

"If you don't see my qualifications, the ants will be like ants, just lie on the ground and bow their heads to die."

Then around the golden figure, there were countless flashes of light, and there were swords, spears, and countless kinds in the air, but they did not repeat each other, and any of them were treasure-like weapons with splendid decorations, and the spearhead of all these weapons was directed towards the Assassin.

Unbeatable - Assassin didn't have to think about it, his instincts told him that the man in front of him was invincible.

Fighting a guy like that is stupid in itself, and there's no way I'm going to defeat him.

Judging from the fact that he was able to injure me as a Servant, it should be that the golden figure is also a Servant, and he is guarding Tosaka's mansion - that is, he is a heroic spirit of the Archer rank?

Isn't that guy needless to be afraid?

The Assassin, who carefully recalled what Master had told him, finally realized that Qili's words were not wrong.

In the face of an enemy with such overwhelming power, there is no room for even so-called fear - yes, even to feel it -

All you can feel is despair.

With the sound of the wind slicing, countless blades glowing with cold light flew towards the Assassin.

The Assassin could feel the gaze, the gaze of the demons who were watching him from beyond the barrier, and the other Masters should have seen it too, the first loser in the Fourth Holy Grail War, the Servant who was defeated without even making a move.

In the last moments of his life, the Assassin finally understood that his master was polite and ...... The true purpose of Tosaka Tokitomi as his ally.
