Chapter 15: The word fate is quite subtle
It's past midnight, and the winter rain mixed with someone's ability is still falling non-stop, but the new capital of Dongmu is still lit up and busy, in stark contrast to the quiet mountain town on the other half of the city.
Rider, who is cruising alone in the city of Fuyuki, appears on the roof of the tallest building in Shinto.
Instead of using magic, he let the cold raindrops wet his long hair, drenching his body and sliding down the contours of his face.
It's been two full days since Sakura was possessed by a strange Servant and became a Servant-like existence without anyone knowing.
After two days of observation and inference, Rider has also figured out a few things.
First of all, Sakura was able to summon this second servant, which was most likely related to the exit of Saber's Imperial Guard Shirou in the early morning of the day before yesterday.
When he told Sakura that Emiya Shirou had been killed by Berserker's master, Sakura began to change.
When I saw each other again in the morning, I could already clearly feel that the other party was possessed by a strange spirit base.
Although I don't know who it is, it is undeniable that I feel similar emotions from that spiritual base, and there is no need to doubt that it must be an existence that has a similar experience with himself and Sakura.
In addition, Rider doesn't think that the spirit base was summoned by Sakura Makiri, because he is already his own master, and based on two days of observation, Rider guessed a possibility.
That is this servant, who may not be a heroic spirit on the throne, but an invisible thing that has always existed in this world!
Because after Sakura learned of Emiya Shirou's death, the distortion and desire that arose from the bottom of her heart echoed with the invisible thing, and finally made her possess and manifest, becoming a god-level mimic servant who could not have appeared in the Holy Grail War!
"Eros, who has a similar experience to me, is it invisible, could it be her?" Rider rummaged through the knowledge given by the Holy Grail in his head, and in the end, there was only one person who could be on the top call.
In Hindu mythology, he was burned to ashes by Shiva and became the god of love, Kama, an invisible and formless deity!
Not only Sakura, but this goddess of love is also very similar to his own experience, they are all wronged to the point of nowhere to appeal, innocent people.
"If it's her, everything will make sense."
The inaudible murmur dissipated into the dark night as Rider re-entered his spirit state.
No matter who it is, if it is what Sakura sincerely prays for, then he will defend it to the end.
That's right, it's all for Sakura!
His mission is to promote the progress of the Holy Grail War and let the Great Holy Grail descend as soon as possible, and now Archer has been exchanged for his own life, so which Servant should he go to next?
Caster was too cunning to summon the Assassin in violation of the rules and use the easy-to-defend Liudong Temple as his base camp, so it was unwise to choose him as an opponent.
Berserker is too strong, and his own strength does not allow it.
Then the only ones left are Lancer and Saber, Lancer is uncertain and decisive, like a scumbag, he often stabs a shot and never stops, and his master's policy is difficult to understand, and Saber ......
I thought that Saber would disappear because of the loss of the Master, but instead she found a new Master, and now it is better to keep her to deal with Berserker.
In this Holy Grail War, no one but her will be an opponent of Berserker.
In this way, all he can do now is to rely on the speed advantage to keep an eye on all parties, search for information from all sides, and at the same time secretly create chaos and provoke disputes among the rest of the followers, so as to speed up the process of this Holy Grail War.
Just when a certain cherry chef was making a strategy for the next step of this Holy Grail War, a handsome young man with blond hair and red eyes in a black motorcycle uniform pushed the door into the bedroom on the second floor of the church in Xindu.
It was a room that smelled of stone, and it was clearly not a human hand, but a natural formation.
There was not a hint of wind, but the candle flame still flickered, along with the shadow of the man sitting at the desk.
Gilgamesh, a remnant of the last Holy Grail War, sat down on the sofa, picked up the red wine glass on the table in front of him, and lay down again, and then looked at Yan Fengqi with a bit of playfulness.
"Feel happy, Saber, she's still alive, and the new Master is probably the guy who will turn you on just like that red-haired imp."
The middle-aged man said without raising his head: "It's really rare that the Hero King actually went to collect the opponent's intelligence in person." β
"Roar~ After so many years, have you even learned to tease? It's really amazing growth. β
Conversations are played out in this room.
"Thank you for the king's acknowledgment and appreciation."
Yan Feng Qili stopped writing, closed the report that he was about to hand over to the Magic Association and the Templar Church, and looked up at the young man on the sofa opposite.
Looking at his face paralyzed and just looking at his own words, Gilgamesh shook his head slightly.
"It's still a little boring, though."
As he spoke, Gilgamesh took a sip of red wine, and then said with a lack of interest: "Remember Qili, except for that red-haired imp, another teenager that the man met in the fire ten years ago, the boy who brought that man real salvation..."
Yan Feng Qili didn't answer, but thought of the beautiful boy who often met at a Chinese restaurant.
Although I have never spoken, I did fall behind in the competition between mapo tofu and spicy dishes.
His highest record was five plates of extra spicy food, but the boy ate one more plate than himself, and even made two more servings of rice!
I thought that one day I would have a chance to fight again, but I didn't expect the other party to become the master of the Holy Grail War, which is really ......
"I investigated, Emiya Kiritsugu was ready to adopt that teenager ten years ago, but he was one step late and was preempted by that artist."
Like some kind of conventional equivalent exchange, Yan Feng Qili first slowly said the information he knew, and only after finishing speaking, did he hook the corners of his mouth and begin to feel full of pleasure.
"Even if there is no intersection, fate finally found that young man, the word fate is really subtle."
"It's just that the miscellaneous cultivator is not a righteous partner."
"Who can say for sure?"
On the other side, the simple home.
Even coaxed Artoria onto the ship, but was easily turned against the guest, and even killed to the point of being defeated by the army, and in the face of the knight king, who became more and more brave and even asked for another game, it was too late to regret it.
However, just as Jian was about to give up his man's self-esteem and surrender Kaesong with his remnants, he suddenly heard a sharp scream.
"Yikeββββ!!"
That's the scream of the girl with two ponytails who lives next door!
β¦β¦
"What's wrong Rin! Enemy?! β
Artoria, who broke through the door, was dressed in armor and armed with a sword, ready to attack on the left and right.
"What the hell is going on?" Jian also asked the girl in a short red dress who was covered in water for some reason, clasped her hands, and lowered her head without saying a word.
"Hehehe, what's wrong with me?"
Rin laughed, then looked up, staring at Jian like an enemy who couldn't see the sky.
"You're too embarrassed to ask me what's wrong? And what's going on with that posture of yours! And what about that lion doll pajamas? It's too naΓ―ve! β
Because of the word childish, Artoria frowned slightly.
"Pose?" Jian Jian looked down at himself, and after realizing that he was still being held by the Knight King Princess, his old face turned red, "No way, no matter how fast I am, can I still have Saber fast?" I had to let her bring me. β
At this point, noticing that there was no aura of the enemy, Artoria put Jian down and put away her sword at the same time.
"What the hell is going on? The sound insulation is so good that I can hear your screams, and what is your water..."
"Why didn't you tell me!"
"Tell you what?" The interruption was confusing, especially the wonderful posture of the other party covering his ass, which made the second monk even more confused.
"Forget it! Tell me where there is a bathroom in this house? This one has water coming out! β
"Bathroom? Got water? β
I was stunned for a while, and then I remembered that the other party seemed to be bad at electrical appliances, and that all the bathrooms were replaced with fully automatic flushing toilets when they were renovated last year.
Although he has gotten rid of the identity of a young man with a mole in this life, Jian Jian still believes that such technology is the gospel of a young man with a mole!
"Oh, you're being bullied by the automatic toilet."
"What do you mean by being bullied by the toilet!" Rin said angrily, "If there's something like that, tell me in advance!" I was going into cardiac arrest! β
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I forgot you're not good at home appliances. But I still recommend that you get used to it, because I don't have a normal toilet at home, so if you don't need this, you can only go to the forest in the backyard..."
"What shameless thing do you say to a lady, fool!" Rin was furious, like a torrent bursting from a broken embankment, and his clenched fist slammed Improv's head.
Boom!
"It hurts! Is there an end? Are you naturally violent? Also, even if the maid didn't say it, each button on it has a text mark, right? It's a fool's errand! Even Saber is completely hands-on for the first time! β
"Are you saying I'm not as good as a fool bastard?!"
Artoria was not happy at this time: "Wait a minute, what do you mean even me?" Are you underestimating me? β
"That's not the case, Saber, you listen to me, and Tosaka, what are you doing with the lamp? By the way, Saber, why are you so far away from me? Wait... Wait a minute, Tosaka, calm down..."
"Go spa jerk!"
"Ahββ!h Simple screams.
