Winterwood Church, interior

In the ruined hall, Caster stood in the middle of it, and the dark night and broken scene matched her perfectly.

"Why is Lancer ......"

"What's wrong, Caster?" Ge Mu, who was standing aside, asked.

"Is something wrong?"

"Nothing, just a little problem." Caster hid his uneasiness.

"Leave it to me, you don't need to worry." Caster bowed to Kazuki.

"Really......" Katsuragi gave Caster a deep look.

"Master, there's something I want to ask you."

"What?"

"You have said this to me here before, you said that my purpose will not be achieved, but as far as I know you have no desires, what do you want? Want to destroy what? Want to forgive what? You have never mentioned these desires that all human beings have, and even people like you have a purpose? Caster looked at Kuzuki earnestly.

"yes...... I was treated inhumanely, but I didn't question it growing up. As a result, I took the life of a person. I didn't have any ill will towards that man, and I didn't get any benefit from killing him, it was just a mechanical killing that I had done in accordance with the instructions. Since then, I have given up my identity as a human being, and even though I was raised in a problematic environment, it was I who made the choice. As you said, I don't have a desire to fulfill. Because I firmly believe that I have a responsibility to live like this. ”

"But........................" Katsuragi suddenly turned to look at Caster.

"I have to send someone back where they belong, I didn't expect that now I would have a purpose other than survival, and I am really willful enough."

"But at the end of the day, it's what it's called a wish." Kazuki looked at the front as if it represented a wish. However, on top of its path, Saber, tormented by the Spell, was selectively ignored.

Winterwood Chapel, Outer Hall

"We're going to take down Caster before Lancer and Archer decide the winner!" The group squatted together and listened to Rin's meticulous layout tactics.

"I see, can you really hand over Caster to you?" Emiya looked at Rin with some hesitation.

"Well, although I'm afraid I'll be cornered by her, but even so, don't interfere, Illyasfil will cooperate with me, otherwise she will have to be distracted to protect you, and there may be damage." Rin looked at him solemnly.

"Shirou, your task is to match Ueya as much as possible to lure away Kazuki-sensei."

"I see." Wei Gong grabbed the iron pipe in his hand, and the whole person looked like a social idler who was about to fight, except for his honest face.

"Berserker is gone, and now it's just that golden shiny that gets tricky. However, as long as we can recapture Archer and Saber from Caster, we can win, and in this way, the Holy Grail War will be over. Rin clenched her little fist tightly.

("That's right...... I thought you were leaving Archer alive because of pure willfulness, should I say that you really deserve to be a senior sister ~~~~~~) Kamitani, who was standing next to him, admired in his heart.

"Hiss~~~~~ "Hiss" At this moment, the screams of the puppets came from the side of everyone.

"Let's go, it seems that the other party also wants to make a break."

On his way to the battlefield, Rin plans to tell Emiya a secret hidden in his heart.

"At this time, let's say okay, the pendant that Shirou returned to me that night, that, it's just one." He didn't dwell too much on what she meant by what she said.

His current worst enemy, who challenged Caster again, was redundant in comparison.

There is only one pendant.

The items she saw in her room and returned to her were not the ones she had picked up that night, and she had used them on herself, and it was not now necessary to investigate any contradictions.

"The only thing I have to say is that the pendant that Shirou picked up in my room was returned to me by Archer, on the day Shirou was assassinated by Lancer. At the time, I thought it must have been the guy who picked it up, but it seems that I was wrong. ”

The decisive battle was imminent, and after Emiya finally confirmed what Tosaka had said, everyone proceeded according to the predetermined plan.

Winterwood Church, Worship Hall

The ruined benches, the half-collapsed stone pillars, the rubble everywhere, all of this seems to be a small church that has long been overwhelmed and tells its suffering, but the magician in purple robes still stands proudly, ready to face the next challenge.

"I finally picked up a little life, but you came to die again, little girl?" Caster seemed to greet Rin and his party leisurely.

Standing next to Caster was Soichiro Katsukidi. He just stood there, not feeling any murderous aura at all. This is the fighting posture of this man. Transparent killing intent, the most terrifying thing about Soichiro Katsukidi. In this sense, this guy can be said to be an out-and-out Assassin.

However, Kamiya, who confronted him, stroked his sword with both hands and was ready to attack, which gave Rin a little comfort in his heart.

"I'm not here to die, I'm here to get our companions back." Ostensibly Rin is fighting back at Caster, but in fact she is peeking at Saber behind Caster and gauging his status.

("Saber used to have a slightly pained expression.") In order to resist Caster's magic, her whole body would tremble as if she were breathing. But now, it's as strange as if it's frozen...... It's not good.........") looked at the calm Saber, and Rin's heart tightened.

"Looks like I'm going to have to take down you, the guy I'm so disgusted with."

"It's commendable that you can tame Lancer, but your pawns aren't enough. I didn't expect you to even expect this, it seems that you are as short-sighted as a child. Caster looked down on Rin.

"Hmph~~~~~~ I've always felt that your dress is really unbearable~~~~~ and now you're still wearing a purple robe~~~~ I feel like a hillbilly~~~~~~" Rin's agitation is a little obvious.

"And ~~~ What's going on with this magic workshop? As soon as I came in, I felt the nostalgia that came from the shop, it was ridiculous~~~~~~"

"It's really annoying, are all magicians in this era pig-heads?" "Buzz~~~" Several circles appeared behind Caster.

"It's no wonder Archer chose to leave you~~~~~"

"Let's get started. Speaking of which, I've fought you three times. I'm tired of seeing your face, so let's end it all here. ”

Tosaka took a step forward towards Caster.

"This breath is blowing so loudly~~~~ Even if there is a case~~~~ But do you really think you can beat me, little girl?"

"Of course I can win~~~~~~~~ a third-rate magician like you, as a first-class magician, I have no reason to lose to you!"

"It's so arrogant, it seems that you have to educate it well."

The two sides behind the mouth cannon put on a posture at the same time:

Rin, Illya, VS_Caster

Ueya, Emiya VS Soichiro Katsugi

"See you again, Kamiya." What is set off by the dazzling magic battle is Ge Mu's language, which can be said to be emotionless.

"Mr. Katsugi ......"

Although he has made up his mind in his heart, he is still a little unbearable in the face of the teacher he respected in his heart in the past, and as a student.

"Teacher...... Are you really going to fight the teacher with a sword? ”
