Winterwood Church, inner church

The dim candlelight reflects the surrounding wooden furniture, which is flashy but not extravagant. Ge Mu was sitting on the sofa in his hand, and from time to time there was a sound of the pages turning, which also matched the atmosphere of the church.

"Crunch~~~" A red figure opened the door.

"Don't you have to be on guard outside...... Archer。 "Mr. Gemu's language is always so concise and concise, but his eyes are just as sharp.

"I'm tired of this kind of mere resignation, and Caster's eyes and ears have covered the surroundings of the church, so I don't need to watch them at all." Archer explained.

"So you're free to move?" Katsuragi-sensei turned his head.

"Caster must be nerve-wracking, too."

"You can rest assured that I am constantly under her watch." Archer spread his hands.

"If I do anything suspicious, she will deal with it directly with a command."

"Now that you know, why are you here?" Mr. Katsugi opened the book in his hand again.

"Even if you are prosecuted for dereliction of duty, you will not be able to defend yourself."

"No, I just don't think I've had a good chat with you all the time, that's all."

Winterwood church, under the eaves

Overhead, there was a dim night sky, a drizzle ahead, and the night breeze hit me, revealing a hint of coldness.

"I'm a person with no ego, and my desires are weak." Under the eaves, Mr. Katsugi said to himself, not paying any attention to the Archer beside him.

"It's hard to express, but even if it's like this, I want to make her wish come true."

"I think...... This is the desire that human beings should have. ”

"I finally asked you out, but it turned out to talk about Caster's wishes......" Archer said, with a hint of disappointment.

"Can you tolerate that woman's purpose in fighting the Holy Grail alone in order to gain freedom?"

"This is not a wish, but an obligation that comes with being alive." Ge Mu's heart still didn't have a trace of turmoil.

Although Caster himself was not aware of it...... But she just wanted to go home. ”

"From the very beginning, he wasn't looking for freedom...... "Katsuragi-sensei stared at the drizzle in front of him, as if his gaze could penetrate it.

"The crucial battle is about to begin, get back to your post Archer, if they haven't given up yet...... If Ryuichi Kamiya is really as strong as you say, then he will be back once Tosaka finds him. ”

"I feel the same way, although it is true that Kamiya lost contact before I left, I don't think he will die like this, they will definitely come back." Archer turned to leave.

"There's one thing I forgot to ask, what is the right way in your heart?"

"Well...... I should know that my choice was wrong, and I will never regret it. ”

"Since good and evil seem to be equivalent, then I think this is the only thing that proves human nature." Mr. Katsugi stood still and let Archer leave.

Fuyuki, a bus stop not far from the church

The rain hit the canopy of the bus stop, making a "popping" sound, and under the wide canopy, stood several young figures, they were either pretty or handsome, but their faces were all the same serious, as if a big war was coming.

"So Lancer, do you know what you're doing?" Rin, dressed in red, carefully arranged the next tactics.

"Ah, my mission is to deal with Archer, Saber is left to this kid to deal with, anyway, I don't want to team up with him, definitely don't ~~~~~~" Lancer who appeared out of thin air waved his hand towards Kamiya with disdain.

"Caster has Assassins under him, and in the worst case scenario, you'll have to deal with two, or even three." The palace of the guard, who had already come to converge, added.

"Ah~~~~~ you kid is still a lot more than him, I always feel relieved to be with him~~~~~~" At this time, Lancer patted Emiya's shoulder like a big brother, completely forgetting that he had almost killed him twice.

"But that guy won't show up in church."

"Why are you so sure?" Rin was confused.

"Since Caster isn't going back to Willow Cave Temple, she should summon the Assassin to her side, right?"

"Although the Assassin is a servant summoned by Caster, there is a certain restriction on this - that is, he cannot leave the Willow Cave Temple." Lancer said confidently.

"Then again, can you two really take down Caster?" Lancer looked at the two girls in front of him, one older and one younger, with some concern.

"If it's a simple magic battle, then you have no chance of winning."

"yes...... But if I have a chance to fight Caster, I should still have a chance, not to mention her containment......" Rin looked at Illya beside her.

"If you lose, I'll buy you candy to eat~~~~ Rin ~~~~~~~~" Illya played with her hair, but she didn't care.

"Hey! You're serious for me! I've entrusted my life to you!! Rin yelled at Illya.

"Alas...... It's getting more and more unreliable......" sighed, looking at the rainy spearmen outside, and a slight ripple appeared in his heart.

Winterwood Church, doorway

The rain stopped just in time, as if guessing what was about to happen, and outside the iron gate of the church, a group of people standing here also found the red figure guarding the door of the church.

"I knew it would come with your character." Archer looked at each other with a confident expression.

"So, what did you come up with? You're not going to fight a battle you're sure of, Rin. ”

"Of course, anyway, you can go through two tricks with me first." Lancer appears out of thin air.

"It's surprising, I don't know who you made a contract with, is that you, Rin?" Archer looked at Rin tentatively.

"If so, it would be too sad for me, just after losing me, did you already make a contract with another servant?"

"Although I'm about the same, I still have to say that you are really fast when you see different ideas, and it seems that parting ways is the right choice."

"Hmph~~ Although I used to look at you very unpleasantly, you kid is really rotten." Lancer complained dissatisfied.

"Oh? Does my betrayal upset you, Lancer? ”

"It's clear that it has nothing to do with you, but you behave so righteously~~~~" Archer continued to taunt.

"I'm just looking at you as an unpleasant servant!!" The mouth cannon was useless, and both sides put on a posture.

"You guys go in first, and I'll leave this guy to me."

"But...... Archer: He ...... Rin hesitated.

"I know~~~~ I'll keep him breathing."

"Thank you, I'm glad you were here to help." Rin nodded to everyone, and everyone rushed into the church.

"Really, things are getting troublesome~~~~~" Seeing Rin and his party rushing over, Lancer was about to do it.

"What do you mean?" Archer's whole body tensed.

"It's nothing, it's just that for me, who can't change hands easily, that little girl is really a little dazzling." Lancer clenched the spear in his hand.

"Then you are so naïve, haven't you heard the saying 'domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers'?"

"Hah! What are you talking about~~~~ How could Uncle Ben know that kind of thing!! ”

"Bang!" The two weapons collided together.
