Emiya Kiritsugu never thought of himself as a merciless person, and he didn't feel like a robot either. He's just an ordinary guy who desperates for victory.

He believed that only victory could bring something, and that the loser would never have the right to pray. Therefore, for the sake of this victory, he is willing to give, even if it is himself, or what he cherishes.

Alice Fell, his wife is also within the scope of this "cherished".

He was sad, but he would never stop. Because this was the only way he could touch victory. That's why he chose the location in Liudong Temple, a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There is only one way up from the mountain, and as long as he can block that path and get the Holy Grail smoothly, it will be his victory.

For this purpose, he had to make a little arrangement, having occupied the geographical advantage. Although he is also a magician, he doesn't have any enchantments, and all he can do is bury bombs or something. Because the other party was unexpectedly powerful, the bomb brought this time was not used at all, and it seems that it is not bad to use it here.

Secretary...... I mean, the assistant Kuyu Maiya, as a veteran terrorist, naturally assists Emiya Kiritsugu, but her place of work is not here, and she still has some small traps at the foot of the mountain.

When Emiya Kiritsugu packed the last explosives on his hand and buried them again with soil, he didn't look out of the ordinary, and then gently clapped his hands and slapped the dirt off his hands. Archer followed him all the time, not saying a word.

Emiya Kiritsugu stretched, sat down on the stairs despite his image, lit a cigarette for himself, and took a deep breath. The smoke obscured his somewhat gloomy face.

"Archer, the final battle is coming. When the time comes, I will ask you to stop them, it won't take too long, it will be a little while. Can it be done? Emiya Kiritsugu looked ahead, and there was not the slightest emotion in his voice.

He didn't know what his servant really was, as Archer had never said anything about it, just calling himself a future Heroic Spirit, and he wasn't interested in asking. Even if you ask, it doesn't make much sense.

Archer crossed his hands around his chest and nodded slightly, regardless of whether Tosaka Tokitomi could see it or not.

Emiya Kiritsugu glanced back at Archer and began to smoke again. He always felt that this Heroic Spirit was not simple, and it was very likely that he knew himself. But, so what? He had no interest in knowing, as long as he was strong enough.

Archer lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something, and when he was almost finished smoking a cigarette, he said hesitantly, "Master, may I ask a question?" ”

"What?" Emiya Kiritsugu looked back at him.

"If you got the Holy Grail, what would you wish?" Archer asked with a complicated expression.

"Yes...... Emiya Kiritsugu looked up at the sky trees that covered the sky and replied faintly, "If only the world could be peaceful." I grew up in a place full of strife, full of deception, blood, and carnage, and I always hoped that it would be nice if it would go away. With that, he smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "Is it ridiculous?" People like me still yearn for peace. ”

"Messenger of Justice?" Archer muttered subconsciously.

"Messenger of Justice...... Right. Emiya Kiritsugu silently tossed the cigarette butt to his feet and stepped on it, relighting a cigarette without hesitation, "No matter what, I always hope to be able to get more salvation, this is the only purpose of my life." ”

Archer's face was a little confused, and he couldn't help asking, "Isn't it necessarily a good thing to be a messenger of justice?" ”

Emiya Kiritsugu shook his head and said, "It's definitely not like this. Justice is always one-sided, and there are countless filths under justice. There has never been absolute justice, and all I can do is save the people I can see. That's my justice. No matter what other people think, I think that's justice, that's valuable, and I'll do it. Otherwise, I would never do it, no matter what other people say. ”

"Yes...... Archer nodded, closing his eyes as if chewing on the passage. It was a miracle that he came into this world and was able to see this person again. For him, Emiya Kiritsugu is a living dream, the existence he has been chasing.

He didn't know what the world would become, but he still had a wish—a humble wish. But now, he is shaken. If it's really as Emiya Kiritsugu said, then is what you did wrong?

He still remembers the heartfelt smile on his face when he rescued himself from the fire, and he has always admired him and admired his justice. That's why he chose to be a messenger of justice. However, instead of being happy, it drove him crazy and made him want to kill himself. He had almost forgotten his name, and it wasn't until he saw the man again that his dead heart was beating again.

He would go back one day, so he decided that he had to witness all this, witness the "righteousness". Now he is not in a hurry to find "himself", and has been following Emiya Kiritsugu. This is far more important than one's own sorrow. Because even if you kill yourself, you may not be liberated.

At this time, Maiya Kuyu, who had already arranged everything, was carefully bypassing the trap on the ground and walking up the mountain road. She first looked at Emiya Kiritsugu, and then nodded lightly to Archer, which was considered to have said hello.

Archer nodded slightly. If he remembered correctly, he hadn't seen this woman himself. Did he die in the war?

"How's it going, Maiya?" Emiya Kiritsugu threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, stepped on the cigarette butt with a pair of leather shoes, and ran it back and forth.

"Yes, it's all set up. But I don't think that's much of a hindrance, after all, the other side has a character like Caster. Kuyu Maiya nodded.

"That's enough, after all, we didn't plan to do much on this, just delay a little." Emiya Kiritsugu stood up and looked up at the sky through the layers of green leaves, "It's almost time, get ready, the final battle is about to begin." Maiya, find a place for yourself, and whether you succeed or not, leave the place you came from immediately, and don't try to fire a second shot. May I? Speaking of this, Emiya Kiritsugu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he just shook his head and turned around and walked directly onto the mountain road.

"I see." Kuyu Maiya nodded silently, and subconsciously tightened his hand holding the shoulder strap of the backpack behind him. It contained her sniper rifle and a handful of gunpowder.

Archer uncharacteristically didn't catch up, and watched Emiya Kiritsugu leave with Maiya Kuyu, and it wasn't until his figure completely disappeared from sight that he turned around and said, "Miss Kuyu, I have something I want to ask you." ”

Kuyu Maiya said unexpectedly, "Is it a matter of Kiritsu?" ”

Archer sat on the rocks next to him, acquiescing to Kuyu Maiya's words.

"I knew that the way you looked at Kiritsugu was not ordinary. I've seen that kind of look before. Kuyu Maiya smiled, "It's like a junior looking at the senior he longs for." I don't know why you know him, but I will answer whatever you want to ask. ”

I'm not a junior...... But that's probably true.

Archer muttered to himself, with a slight fluctuation in his eyes, and said:
