When the crisis really came, Rin Tosaka realized that he was not as strong as he imagined.

The magic pointer in his hand pointed at the darkness as if it were frozen, and the badge pinned to his clothes was as hot as a red-hot soldering iron.

"Don't ......"

Rin finally realizes how dangerous this quest can be. Even if Qin Yin was really in that darkness, he couldn't bring her back.

"Don't ......"

Unable to escape, unable to think, just wrapped in pure despair, Rin has lost the ability to think.

Suddenly there was a series of screams in the darkness, and then it turned into a deathly silence.

This is already the limit of what Rin can bear.

Just as her eyes were black and she was about to pass out, a hand reached out in the darkness and pressed it on the girl's head.

"Good boys shouldn't be running around at this time. Reilly crouched down and smiled, "Do you know how worried Mommy is, Rin?"

"Teacher Reilly...... Rin blushed and said unwillingly, "My friend, she ...... the sound of the piano"

"She's gone for you. Reilly said lightly.

“...... I know. Rin bit her lip and held the tears in her eyes to keep them from falling.

"On the path of magicians, this kind of thing is very common. Reilly stroked the girl's head and said, "Do you regret it?"

"No!" Rin looked at him stubbornly and said, "The daughter of the Tosaka family will definitely not lose to anyone!"

"Good boy. Reilly hugged her tenderly and said, "You can sleep for a while." ”

――――――――――――――――――――

An hour after Rin Tosaka left home, her mother found out that her daughter was missing.

Next to the child's bed is a note stating that she is looking for her unaccounted friend Kotoon.

Aoi immediately regretted it.

At dinner, Rin mentions Kotone and asks her mother about the current situation in Higashiki.

Aoi thinks that these things should not be hidden from Rin, so she tells her, "Forget about this friend." ”

However, Rin's reaction was beyond her expectations.

After discovering that her daughter was missing, Aoi immediately wanted to turn to Shi Chen for help, but this thought was quickly suppressed again.

After all, she is the wife of a magician, and she knows that her husband's energy is focused on the battlefield, and now she has no time to worry about her daughter.

(Now only I can protect Rin)

Aoi ran out before she had time to change her clothes and drove her car down the national highway.

Since she didn't know where Rin had gone, she could only guess her daughter's range of movement and look for where she might go.

Starting from home, if you want to take the tram, the first thing you must go to is Xindu, and then walk for 30 minutes with your child's feet, then the approximate range is ......

In the middle of the night, the silent park is easily reminiscent of a cemetery.

Aoi looked over to the bench where she usually took Rin to play, and the child she was looking for was sleeping in a man's arms.

"Good work, Mrs. Tosaka. Reilly said with a smile. Actually, he originally wanted to be called "Miss Aoi", but when he thought of someone hiding in the grove behind him......

(Hehe, just keep nesting)

"Rin!" Aoi pounced, taking the little figure in the red coat from Reilly. Seeing that she was not injured, the mother finally left tears of relief.

"Thank you so much...... Mr. Reilly. ”

"If you have anything to say, let's talk about it later. Reilly smiled, "It's not good to let children sleep outside on such a cold day." ”

"Ah, it's rude......"

After sending Aoi away, Reilly said to the woods behind him, "You guy, you don't even have the courage to meet her now?"

"What can you do when you see that?" said a man in a cold jacket and a turban covering his face. He appeared to have an injury to his left leg and could not even walk.

Reilly shrugged his shoulders and said, "I thought you would hand Rin to her with your own hands." ”

The man took off his turban and said in a mocking tone, "By the way, let her see what I look like now?"

Lifeless white hair like withered grass, with a half-human, half-ghost face, this is what the night of the wild goose looks like now.

"It's a path you choose for yourself. Reilly said lightly.

"Ah, that's the fate of Makiri. "Before Sakura becomes like this, I must rescue her." ”

Reilly smiled but didn't say anything.

――――――――――――――――――――

A special banquet is taking place in the atrium of the castle in Einzberen.

Rider and Saber sat facing each other, with Webber and Alice Phil sitting side by side.

The two Servants drank as they discussed the ownership of the Holy Grail.

"This war in Fuyuki City is a ritual to choose a master for the Holy Grail. are both heroic spirits, if they can agree with each other's strength, then I don't need to talk about it later. ”

"So, you're going to compare who is stronger with me first? Rider. ”

"Exactly, we are going to compete in the name of 'king' at the wine table. However, instead of calling it 'Holy Grail War', it's better to call it 'Holy Grail Q&A'...... Knight King or King of Conquest, who is more qualified to be the master of the Holy Grail? This kind of question is the most suitable question to ask the wine glass. Rider laughed mischievously, then said as if talking to himself, "Oh yes, there's another man here who claims to be 'King'." ”

"That's the end of the joke, mongrel. ”

A dazzling golden light appeared in front of everyone, and Saber and Alice Field's bodies immediately stiffened.

"Archer, why are you ...... here?"

Rider calmly answered Saber's question: "I ran into him on the street before, so I asked him to come over for a drink." Although he was late, he came on foot, so he can't blame others. ”

Archer looked at Rider proudly and said, "That's all you can do to hold a banquet in a shabby place like this." Why did you apologize for causing me to come here?"

"Don't say that. Rider proudly lifted the spoon full of wine and handed it to Archer, "Here, have a drink first." ”

The Hero King simply took the spoon and drank the wine inside.

Seeing this scene, Reilly understood what Rider meant by "contest".

(I see.) Since it is a contest between kings, there is no reason for Archer to shy away from it. That arrogant guy will definitely meet Rider's challenge head-on)

"What kind of bad wine is this, and how can you use this thing to fight between heroes?" Archer said with a look of disgust.

"I bought it from the market and it feels okay. ”

Archer said disdainfully, "It's because you don't know how to drink, stupid." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a whirlpool appeared beside him, which was the sign of the king's treasure being activated.

However, Archer didn't bring out a weapon tonight.
