It's late at night......

Da

As the sound progressed from far to near, a vigorous black shadow leaped high and crossed an arc under the bright moon.

The woman who had successfully crossed the wall and landed on the ground first looked around, and after making sure that she had not encountered a trap, she stood up as if relieved and wiped the fine beads of sweat from her head.

In the light of the moonlight, you can see the woman's short rosy hair and crisp brown suit.

Her name is Bazette Freygar McRemiz, and she is a priest magician affiliated with the Magic Society, who comes from an ancient magic family in Ireland, and her family has a long history, dating back to the gods, and has many hidden traditions, but because of her perennial seclusion, she is not very well-known in the world of magic users.

Bazet, who lived in Minato City since he was a child, did not enjoy a happy childhood. However, she also has something she is passionate about, and that is the legend of Cúchulainn, which she saw in her study. The girl had always had a longing for the hero's deeds, so at the age of 15, she broke with her family tradition and went to the Magic Society alone despite the opposition of her parents.

The Magic Association warmly welcomed Bazette's arrival, but it was just a courtesy of the situation. In fact, they didn't even assign her a place to live. For the Magic Society, Bazet is just a living specimen who has mastered rare magic! If it weren't for the ancient family behind her, perhaps, what awaits this innocent girl would be the miserable fate of accepting the seal designation and becoming a living sample......

Magicians are given 'ranks' corresponding to their own strength, from the highest to the lowest, which are Grand, Brand, Pride, Fes, Cause, Count, and Frame. Although according to the general calculation, the 'sacrificial position' given to Bazet is the fourth rank, in fact, this title is accompanied by special conditions. To put it simply, it is not the case that the ability of ordinary magicians is given an honorary rank that gives special skills or achievements that must be evaluated.

Therefore, in order to prove himself and get ahead, Bazet, who is in the same rank as many monsters, accepts the position of executor of the 'seal designation' in order to accumulate achievements and reputation. Due to her magic skills that are suitable for combat, and an unexpected fit for this job, she has gradually become recognized as one of the strongest 'seal-designated' executors of all time.

Six years ago, Bazette was tasked with dealing with a magician who was trying to recreate a soul from a corpse. However, that operation failed, and her companion was killed, and in her despair, she met Yan Feng Qili, who was acting as a substitute for the Church, to carry out the same mission and the same death of her companions. Eventually, the incident was ended by two people who joined forces in private. The body of the magician who was killed was recovered by the Magic Association, and the two who completed the mission and survived met many times since then because of the mission, and did not report the private competition between each other to the organization.

Before the Holy Grail War began, Yan Feng Qili, as the overseer, recommended her to her superiors to participate, so the invited Bazet arrived in Fuyuki City eight days before the ceremony began. Lodge in the uninhabited Ghost Mansion (Twin Pavilions) and prepare to get involved in this miracle that has emerged in the Far East. However, a few days ago, just as Bazette was expecting to summon his own heroic spirit with the earrings of the Rune Word Stone, an unexpected situation occurred......

The secret treasure held by Bazet, the magic costume 'Backlight Sword' that was not a treasure but was better than a treasure, was lured by a strange force, broke out of her control and flew straight to the northwest! If it weren't for her quick enough reaction, blessed herself with magic, and chased after her directly, coupled with good luck, and finally the strange power influence disappeared, she really might have lost this treasure made by herself and containing the highest secret of the family's demonic path!

Even though Bazet had already exercised a strong heart in her years of 'seal designation' execution, such a stimulating accident still made her heart pound, and she finally regained her composure. In the end, thanks to the guidance of a friend, she found the reason why her magic dress was out of control from some clues.

In Fuyuki City, in addition to the 'Gosan', which has a certain reputation in the magic world, there are other magicians. Speaking of which, he can still have a little to do with Bazet. In the past, the heretical magician Wai Gong Kikyun, who was 'sealed' by the Magic Association and studied forbidden areas, was the magician's father. And he himself is not an unknown person, the name of the 'magician killer', ten years ago, was also famous in the dark world.

The father used to conduct abnormal research, and the son must not be a good thing! Although Bazet had seen a lot of the dark side of the world, she still felt a sense of anger in her heart when she heard from Yan Feng Qili that Emiya Kiritsugu had adopted a boy as her test subject under the cover of charity......

So, feeling that there was a problem with his magic dress, it was likely that the other party was bad (the direction of the Wei Gong Mansion was also northwest of the Ghost Mansion), and Bazete asked Yan Feng Qili for a detailed map of the Wei Gong Mansion. Of course, she also wondered why there was a magician's house map in her friend's hand, but after thinking of the other party's identity, Bazet was relieved. This evil magician is something that anyone needs to guard against!

With the video surveillance support provided by Yanfeng Qili, Bazet, who has a detailed map, made sufficient preparations during the day. After confirming that there was no enchantment guard in this courtyard, he finally sneaked in at night......

"I've got to be careful......"

Bazet, who stood up, cautiously observed his surroundings.

Without telling you, trespassing into a magician's residence or magic workshop is already a declaration of war!

Even the most temperamental magician, when confronted with such a situation, will directly fight the intruder.

This kind of thing is dangerous enough to cost her life, and she can't help but be careless.

Immediately, she took out a gold pocket watch from her bosom. When the flap is opened, the surface is not the regular hour, minute and second hands, but faint red dots, constantly flashing! Each red dot represents a node of the enchantment, and once it is touched, it will send a signal to the setter, so as to achieve the effect of early warning.

With his astonishing flexibility, Bazet carefully dodged the nodes and made his way inside.

If the information provided by Yan Feng Qili is not bad, then Emiya Kiritsugu's weapon is placed in the side room. After bidding farewell to the dark world, the 'magician killer' seems to have lost his due caution, and even his most proud weapon is no longer carried with him, but placed in other rooms, occasionally taken out for maintenance.

As the heir of the Demon Dao family with a long heritage, and Bazet, who has been studying in the Magic Association for a long time, naturally he will not be like an ordinary pheasant magician, who didn't even investigate his opponent clearly, so he rushed up to find death in a daze.

Victory or defeat is decided before the start!

Every time Bazet remembered the words he had seen in a certain book of the Eastern Devil's Dao, he felt that it made perfect sense.

It seems that Kiritsuri has fought against Kiritsugu Emiya, and he has provided Bazeet with a lot of valuable experience.

This kind of alternative magician who is good at dealing with magicians is exactly the same type as her, and it is always wrong to be careful.

"First of all, find the pistol-type magic dress ...... of Emiya Kiritsugu"

After casting a silent spell, Bazette gently pushed open the paper door. While recalling the information in her mind, she cautiously walked into the house: "What Qili said is true, the reason why the other party is called the 'magician killer' has a lot to do with the weapon he uses. This guy seems to be using a special demon-breaking bullet, no matter how powerful the magician is, once he is shot by it, the magic circuit will be instantly destroyed, losing his ability to move and fight, and he will be slaughtered. If I want a safe investigation, I'll have to take his weapon first. ”

Before coming to Japan, Bazet had also consulted information about the Holy Grail War of the previous generation.

After the death of Kenneth Ermelo Archibald, the heir to the famous 'Archibald' family, the body was returned to the clock tower. Although he is not good at fighting, there is no doubt about his strength! is such a powerful magician, after being hit by Emiya Kiritsugu's bullet, he can't get up again. When examining the corpse, the Magic Association found that the magic circuits in his body seemed to have undergone a reorganization of crushing and combining, and had become something plausible, which could no longer be used at all, and was an undoubted 'deterioration'!

Perhaps, in terms of magic, Nojiko's Emiya Kiritsugu is not very strong.

However, his attainments in killing, especially killing magicians, are not inferior to Bazet, who is the sacrificial magician and the chief executive of the 'seal designation'!

In her past missions, she had seen too many teammates who had died due to conceit, and in order to remind herself, Bazet could easily recall the tragic situation of those people......

Huh......

Relying on the cover of silent magic, the sound of Bazet's breathing was not transmitted.

Thanks to the guidance of an accurate map, she finally made it to the side room! Looking at the hunting spear in front of him on the stand, Bazette breathed a sigh of relief. In her mind, as long as she grasps the biggest hole card in her hand, then she will be able to rely on her own combat power to turn this sneak from dark to light.

Bazet can't remember how many magicians who have been 'designated by the seal' have been sanctioned by her iron fist!

After grabbing the spear with a leather glove enchanted with a seal, a hint of joy appeared in her heart.

However, in the next moment, the sudden shadow made the joy in his heart slide into the abyss in an instant!

Bang!

Bazette stepped out, leaving a striking dent in the floor and flashing to one side.

She had already finished turning in mid-air, looking behind her.

I don't know when, behind the position where Bazet was originally standing, a figure quietly appeared!

“…… What are you doing? ”

This is a middle-aged man with black messy hair, a slightly haggard face, and black-rimmed glasses.

His tone seemed a little listless, his hands were wrapped in loose plaid pajamas, and the whole person stood there loosely, without any spirit at all, as if he had been disturbed in the middle of the night and woke up from a sweet dream.

The moment he saw the other party, Bazet's heart tightened.

She knew very well that this person was her target. The 'magician killer' of the past, the current head of the Emiya family, the evil magician Emiya Kiritsugu who uses children as experiments!

She landed on her feet and stared at the man in front of her.

It's just that after regaining her balance, her originally nervous eyes became victorious again......

Guy didn't know when she had the magic dress in the shape of a 'competitor' pistol in her hand!

Thanks to the subconscious that has been cultivated over many years of dangerous life! While dodging, she did not forget to remove the gun placed on the stand. Now, the sharpest hole card of Emiya Kiritsugu has been held in Bazet's hands!

"Why don't you take the opportunity to attack me? Should you say that you are self-confident or stupidly arrogant? ”

Setting up the stance, Bazet's body began to radiate a colorful glow.

It was an enhanced magic spell she had set up in advance, which could not only increase her body's output to the limit, but also make her defense so strong that it could be called inhuman, and ordinary pistol bullets could not even break through the defense, and could last for half an hour.

This is the biggest insurance she has ever spent her time with a lot of valuable materials for this late-night trip.

The only downside is that it takes a few seconds to start on site, because strictly speaking, this thing is a magic prop that can be taken down in case of emergency, and it is best not to waste it, and to use it later when needed.

In battle, a few seconds is enough time to decide life and death, but Bazet, as a battle-hardened church practitioner, has the ability to buy this time.

That seems to be the case.

At this moment, having used even a living brown bear in front of her, she was confident that she could carry its furious attack without injury, and then killed it with one blow.

Her tone unconsciously became elevated, and even a little dissatisfied, she pinned Kiritsugu's magic dress pistol to her belt, along with the 'origin bullet' in it.

(It's all your fault, I used this prop, and this gun should be used as a valuable material to compensate me...... It's all money. ）

"Now, please tell me the secret you are hiding!"

"Oh? You seem to be able to fight very well now. ”

Facing her glowing whole body, like a 'Mary Sue', Emiya Kiritsugu stood in place, and the dead man's face suddenly appeared a little interested.

"So you think...... Eat me, right? ”

"With a powerful body, approach those powerless waste magicians, and then kill them in close quarters...... Very nice idea, I like it. ”

As Emiya Kiritsugu's tone gradually changed, Bazet suddenly felt something strange.

"But...... Are you really sure...... Am I the one who has no power to do it? ”

Emiya Kiritsugu didn't care about her threat, and slowly paced towards her.

"Bluffing."

Bazette said lightly, and didn't stop it - after all, she felt that close proximity was a greater advantage for her, even if it seemed that she had no long body now, but the name of the magician killer was also very loud, and he might be able to pull something strange out of his crotch, and it was naturally best for him to throw himself into the net.

"Ten years ago, I was almost beaten to death by a boxing master, and it can be said that it was the person I hated the most,"

"He's probably doing well now......"

Kiritsugu's eyes fluttered, but he said with a little nostalgia: "However...... But I lived the life I hated the most. ”

Jump...... Jump...... Jump......

"Huh?"

Is it a delusion?

Why did the sound of a bowstring ripple come from the body of Emiya Kiritsugu in front of him? And compared to when they first met, the other party's figure seems to have become taller.

However, Bazet soon learns that this is not his own delusion!

Tear ......

A piercing sound of cloth crackling.

Bouncing ......

The sound of the tendons bounce and stretch.

Cracking sound......

The sound of the joints being raised and the joints regrouping.

Whoa......

The blood flowed like the sound of waves crashing on the shore.

Bazet's mouth was wide open, and he just watched blankly after his shirt was broken, and Emiya Kiritsugu, who was only wearing a pair of shorts, turned into a sturdy giant with a height of more than two meters!

His blue-black tendons were wrapped around like a giant snake, showing a body of strong muscles that had swelled to the limit.

His bare chest was marked with bullet holes.

These old injuries are basically souvenirs left by the career of the 'magician killer' to Kiritsugu Emiya.

(This breath...... What's going on? Why are you still pure human? Shouldn't such a drastic change be some kind of disgusting creature or something? ）

Bazet was completely incomprehensible: "What did you do? Ghoul blood? Or is it a Dead Apostle on the next level? Why don't you feel sick at all? ”

"No, I'm just better at ...... It's just exercise. ”

Blue light and shadow began to appear on Emiya Kiritsugu's body, and with a mountain-like sense of oppression, it shrouded Bazet's body.

She began to panic - why can't she move!

"Now do you know, why is this mansion's enchantment protection so full of loopholes?"

Emiya Kiritsugu, who had completely completed his transformation, looked down at Bazet: "Because, it's completely unnecessary." ”

"Firearms, I don't need them for a long time!"

He clenched his huge fist tightly and blasted upwards with a punch!

"The sky will be fierce!"

"it!"

Bazette's eyes showed horror: "Wait, there's something to say—"

A force visible to the naked eye, as if a dark blue shockwave was pouring out of his fist, accompanied by a terrifying sound and smoke, and the cold moonlight spilled into the room.

"Oh, is anyone looking for death again? Forget it, let's talk about repairing the house until Shirou comes back tomorrow. ”

In the other bedroom, Maiya, who was awakened by this movement, calmly closed the paper door after looking out, and returned to bed to continue sleeping......
