"Etude ......"

When Artoria and Alice Phil, who were supporting Maiya Hisayu, arrived at the castle, the castle door was open;

- The hall is full of ruins after the battle, and on the stairs leading to the hall, Emiya Kiritsugu sits very haggard;

He was smoking, and when he saw Artoria, Alice Phil and others, he screamed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Kiritsugu? What happened to you! ”

Alice Phil looked at the haggard Emiya Kiritsugu, and her heart tightened.

Could it be that Weber didn't keep his promise and took action against Emiya Kiritsu?

How dare he!

"It's nothing...... Emiya Kiritsugu shook his head, "I crippled Kenneth, but Lancer's Master came to save ......"

Save...... Gone?

Just save, didn't do anything else?

Alice Phil thought to herself.

And Emiya Kiritsugu, who seemed to see what Alice Fell was thinking, spoke: "Lancer's Master didn't do anything, but he ......"

Emiya Kiritsugu lowered his head, he really wanted to ask Alice Phil what happened to her and Webb.

But Webb said it was a secret, and I guess Alice Phil's character wouldn't answer......

The dodge and a little panic in Alice Field's eyes were so glaring and obvious in his eyes.

She ...... What's wrong? ”

She refers to Maiya Kuyu, who is being held by Artoria.

"The Master of the Assassin invaded, and then ...... I fought with Maiya and him, but we lost...... Luckily, Lancer's Master came and repelled Yan Fengqili. Alice Field's tone trembled a little as she said "Lancer's Master."

Although it was light, Emiya Kiritsugu still caught it.

“...... Oh. Emiya Kiritsugu threw down the cigarette that was still half left in his hand and replied blankly.

Alice Field, just her voice was shaking;

And he, his heart was trembling.

"You guys go in first, as for Maiya...... Just settle into a room. Emiya Kiritsugu stood up, ignoring the dust on his buttocks.

"What about you?" Alice Phil didn't speak, Artoria asked.

"Me? This place has to be cleaned up, after all, it's our base ......" Emiya Kiritsugu said with some bitterness, referring not only to the messy hall, but also to the entire castle, where Kenneth's Moon Spirit Essence had been destroyed.

"Kiritsugu, are you really okay?" Alice Phil looked at the bitter Emiya Kiritsugu, and her heart was even more bitter, she gritted her teeth and wanted to tell the truth, "Kiritsugu, in fact, I and ......"

"Ellie!" Emiya Kiritsugu shouted.

Alice Phil paused, looked at Emiya Kiritsugu with a somewhat cruel expression, and timidly lowered her head and did not continue.

For the first time, she faced this expression in front of Emiya Kiritsugu.

"Don't say it, okay." Emiya Kiritsugu shook his head painfully, his head lowered, as if there was water flowing.

-- That's tears.

"I ...... I see......" Alice Phil said dejectedly, she understood that Emiya Kiritsugu had misunderstood something.

But what can she say? Emiya Kiritsugu obviously didn't listen.

And Artoria, who didn't know anything, looked at Emiya Kiritsugu and Alice Phil, a little confused.

What's wrong with them?

"Master, Yanfeng Qili needs to be repositioned." Artoria said.

She doesn't care what kind of mentality Emiya Kiritsugu has now. For her, when it comes to business, she can say whatever she has to say.

She doesn't hide it, no matter if the other person is not in the state.

"Yan Feng Qili doesn't seem to have any intention of quitting the Holy Grail War, otherwise he wouldn't have come out of the church, although I don't know what he would do without the Heroic Spirit, but there is no doubt that we can't easily label him as "harmless".

"Yan Feng Qili...... He's finally got his hands dirty. ”

Obviously, Alice Phil had previously said that Yanfeng Qili had invaded Einzbelen and that it was Yanfeng Qili who had injured Jiuyu Maiya, but he was only now reacting to the name "Yanfeng Qili".

What the hell is wrong with him? Artoria looked at the decadent face of the man in front of her, her eyebrows furrowed deeply.

Even though she and Emiya Kiritsugu are extremely different, she doesn't want Emiya Kiritsugu to be decadent.

After all, Emiya Kiritsugu is her real master, and Alice Phil is just a puppet master who acts on behalf of her and uses it to confuse others.

However, Emiya Kiritsugu's words aroused Artoria's doubts.

What do you mean by "finally getting started"?

Did he already know that Yan Feng Qili had not withdrawn from the Holy Grail War?

"Master, didn't you already know that Yan Feng Qili hadn't quit the Holy Grail War?" Artoria asked.

"Hmm." Emiya Kiritsugu nodded, and his face began to improve, and he began to return to his usual coldness.

But the decadence has not completely disappeared.

"Rider, you help Maiya back to the house first."

He regained his usual look, so he said.

Artoria nodded, and helped Kuyu Maiya into the castle.

Emiya Kiritsugu watched Artoria's figure fade around the corner, and then slowly turned his head to look at Alice Phil, who bowed her head and was speechless.

My mind was complicated, I didn't know what to say, I didn't know what to say.

After being silent for a long time, he was able to say---

"Ellie, I'm glad you're sorry."

――――

"Qili? You...... What's going on? ”

After leaving the territory of Einzberen, Yan Feng Qili did not return to the church, but went directly to the Tosaka house.

for he knew that his father would not be able to heal his wounds;

At this stage, the only one who can cure his body is Tosaka Tokitomi.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Tosaka Shichen, who came to open the door, was still so elegant, but there was a little surprise in his green eyes that reflected the reflection of the gray charcoal-like Yan Feng Qili.

Yan Feng Qili was his disciple, so he was well aware of Yan Feng Qili's strength.

Very strong.

With magic attainments alone, he is a little weaker than him, and in some aspects, that is, the aspects that Tosaka Tokitomi is not good at, the results are better than Tosaka Tokitomi.

Yan Feng Qili, worse than him, is just the combat experience between magicians, but the combat experience, as a substitute, he is not lacking.

So he's strong.

But he is so strong, he would use such a ...... Half-dead in front of him?

How can it be!

"Could it be...... Did Kenneth do it to you? ”

Tosaka Shichen didn't dare to assert that he could hurt Yan Feng Qili like this, since this was the case, then the only one who could hurt him was Kenneth, who was stronger than him.
