The land of the far east, Fuyuki City, Matou's house.
"No matter how many times I come here... I hate the smell here." In the yard, the smell of rotten magic power still lingers, Kuenji Yuzu frowned to express his dissatisfaction, but Aozaki Aoko who was dragging the suitcase beside him But no matter how much he twitched his exquisite nose, he couldn't smell the slightest smell.
Therefore, a big question mark popped up in her head.
"There's no smell here?!"
Chapter 006, Respective Information
Regarding the stupid and cute behavior of her friend's daily dismantling, Kuonji Yuzu sighed as if she was used to it, and didn't really want to pay attention to the other party... Sometimes she even suspected that she and Rimuru had accepted the same things as the other party since they were young. Education, why is there such a big gap...
Magicians of the Age of Gods, or witches, phantom species, etc. are born with some special senses, including Limuru's magic power perception, which diffuses magic power to form images, and there are also witches, who can smell magic power breathing.
Although it's a bit exaggerated, the magical atmosphere here is indeed full of decay and heaviness. She said that it smells bad, but it's not a disease-free moan.
"But fortunately, we don't have to live here." When Jiuyuanji Youzhu said lightly, not far from the door, a small seaweed head popped out.
After seeing the two of them, he quickly shrank back, and then shouted loudly: "Uncle! Uncle! There's someone at home again!"
Youzhu quietly stared at the child's back, and glanced at Qingzi who was beside him, who was silly and cheerful.
Young children often can't tell the difference between malice and kindness, so they often make their first impressions based on the beauty and ugliness of things, but they don't know that the more beautiful the scene is, the more beautiful the scene is often like a rose with thorns - and as a magician's child, obviously this It shouldn't be.
The reason why magician's children mature early is not because of the stimulation of magic power, but in the final analysis is because of the educational environment and various acquired factors.
"It seems that you didn't train him in the direction of a magician." When Matou Kariya came out exhaustedly leaning on the wall, the first sentence he got was accountability from the witch.
"I don't want his childhood to be as depressing as mine, and he doesn't have the qualifications to become a magician." Hearing this, Matou Kariya was silent for a moment, then sighed: "And this has nothing to do with you... ? What you need is me..."
"It's really irrelevant, but I want to remind you that if the two of us are magicians who came to you with malice, there may be an extra corpse in your arms now." Kuenji Yuzu stared at Matou Kariya without any hesitation. He said mercifully: "Even if you don't have the qualifications, you should at least learn the ability to protect yourself as a member of the magician family."
"..." Jiantong Yanye stared at the girl's peaceful face speechlessly, and could only say, "Are you here because of the Holy Grail War?"
"Hi!" Hearing this, Kuonji Yuzu just nodded lightly, but behind her, Aozaki Aoko suddenly appeared and greeted the two of them excitedly.
"Then that's the case..." Kariya Matou was a little hesitant, and Yuzu Kuenji understood what he was worried about, and said directly: "Don't worry, we will not choose the Matou family for this battle. We came to you this time only because Rimuru decided to meet here."
Her words calmed Matou Kariya's mood a bit. You must know that magician battles will definitely set up a corresponding magic workshop as the base camp, and once it becomes the base camp, it means... sooner or later this place will become main battlefield.
Today's Jiantong family has just been rebuilt from the ruins after the genocide seven years ago. No matter how rich they are, they can't stand the demolition team tearing them down every day.
However, he didn't feel sorry for those few assets, the most important thing was... He looked at Shinji Matou and hesitated for a moment: "Should I send him out..."
"You're not stupid, Kariya." Before he finished speaking, a voice formed by a spirit seed suddenly appeared behind him, startling him, it was Rimuru.
To be precise, it is a part of Limuru's spirit son - I saw that he vaguely condensed to form an illusory and ethereal soul, just like the virtual hologram in science fiction movies. blur it out.
"Even if we won't turn your territory into the main battlefield, Fuyuki City is obviously not safe anymore. If I were you, I would send Matou Shinji to the countryside first, or other nearby cities." Live in town for a while."
"After all, that guy Tosaka Tokiomi sent Aoi and Rin back to Zen City very early."
"But... in this case, wouldn't you startle the snake?" Matou Kariya hesitated a little, which made Limulu amused.
This guy is quite dedicated?
But isn't this kind of dedication a little too simple and honest? Brother, you were forced to help by us from the beginning...
Limulu explained, dumbfounded: "There's no such thing as making a fool of yourself. You are one of the three imperial families who know the existence of the Holy Grail War. Whether you participate in the Holy Grail War or not, it is reasonable to send your family members out during the Holy Grail War, right?"
"What's more, as early as three months before the start of the Holy Grail War, the masters have already started collecting information in advance, and as the head of the Matou family, you must have already been included in the participation list."
Rimuru didn't lie to him.
Because the rule that Tohsaka, Matou, and Einzbern, who are the royal family, must be selected in every Holy Grail War has been the default rule since the establishment of the Holy Grail War system, written in within the rules of the Holy Grail.
And Matou Kariya, as the only heir to the Matou family who still possesses magic aptitude so far, is almost inevitable to be selected as the master, but...
Probably Tohsaka Tokiomi didn't think of it either?
The smile on the corner of Rimuru's mouth deepened slightly—it never occurred to him that Kariya Matou, whom he had always looked down upon, would also be favored by the Holy Grail three years ago.
"Rimru." Kuonji Yuzu interrupted Rimuru's conversation, staring at the other person with black pearl-like eyes, as if extremely dissatisfied with the other party's behavior of ignoring him and only chatting with Kariya Matou.
"Ah, Youzhu, Qingzi, I didn't expect you to come so soon." He said apologetically, "But we are already on our way, and we will hurry there as soon as possible."
"But since you're here, do me a favor."
Limulu's figure slowly turned into spirit particles and dissipated, and said at the same time: "The summoning ceremony needed to describe the spirit descending, the specific ceremony has beads. We once drew it in Liudong Temple, and just redraw it according to that time. "
"It just so happens that tonight is the day of the full moon. When the magic power is abundant, it is also the best day for spiritual seance."
"Just tonight... When we arrive, let me see who the great existence that I can summon will be!"
……
Germany, Einzbern Castle.
The old man who used to be able to calmly run away from Erte Luqi is getting more and more decayed. As the core of the artificial man of the terminal, the patriarch known as Ahad, has a clear way to see that he has come to an end.
Leaning on crutches, he stepped out of the deepest room of the castle step by step, and walked weakly but firmly to the room on the top floor of the castle.
He did not wake up any of his men, so the castle seemed deserted.
Since the second invasion of the white knight Leviathan, Ahad, who felt more and more weak in Einzbern, terminated most of the internal functions of the castle, leaving only two fighting android maids as servants and surveillance guards. After being the servant of Miya Kiritsugu, he himself has not stepped out of the castle for a long time.
But it's all worth it.
He must try his best to extend his standby time, persist until the Holy Grail War comes again and again, and complete the third method, which is the meaning of the existence of the Einzbern family and the one who created the Einzbern family. long-cherished wish.
And now...
"It's time to go." In the room, Emiya Kiritsugu who was watching Illya playing with the snow outside the window, suddenly heard such a gloomy voice.
……
"Don't worry." The oppressive aura of Patriarch Einzbern came from behind, Emiya Kiritsugu habitually picked up a cigarette and put it on his mouth, then turned on the lighter with the other hand, and clicked With a sound, the flame was lit, lightly lit, and then took a deep breath——
"Huh..." A slightly scorched breath deeply poured into the lungs, and then spit out with the smoke, as if taking away a lot of the depression in his heart, Emiya Kiritsugu slowly turned around , met his gloomy eyes: "My assistant is already on the move, and I plan to leave after knowing the master's information before it's too late."
He didn't finish smoking, but immediately extinguished half of the cigarette he had smoked after alleviating his anxiety, and pressed him to death on the window sill: "Premature entry into the game is easy to become a turtle in the urn."
"Hmm...huh." Hearing this, Ahad did not refute. As for combat, they are not good at being artificial humans, but Emiya Kiritsugu is an expert in this field, so he did not He doesn't intend to interfere, but...he just needs to remind the other party.
Seeing that Ahad turned around and left slowly, Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't help but took out a cigarette again...until he was surrounded by the warm arms behind him.
"Ellie?"
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, Kiritsugu."
Irisviel's gentle voice sounded from his ear: "If it's you, it must be fine."
"...Ah." Emiya Kiritsugu looked at Ari's red pupils firmly, and suddenly responded heartily, turned and walked towards the study, "Let's sort out the information so far, Ari."
In the cluttered study room, only the table in the middle near the sofa was neatly arranged. On it was a fax machine that seemed to be working forever. The tool printed on the side——
Irisviel hastily and slowly walked behind Emiya Kiritsugu, and looked curiously at the documents in his hand—first of all, it was a document with a photo of a gentleman in a red suit attached.
"So far, there are a total of four confirmed masters." Emiya Kiritsugu said softly, "Tosaka Tokiomi, the head of the Tosaka family, is a difficult opponent with a fire attribute who is extremely good at jewel magic."
"No.2, Kariya Matou... seems to be a lost dog who has lost the right of inheritance, but after the Matou family was eliminated by the Clock Tower a few years ago because of violating taboos, the current patriarch was forced to accept the position of the Matou family's patriarch. Bit...well, it doesn't look worth mentioning so far."
"Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald, well, visually, he is the most difficult opponent in this Holy Grail War, and he is the one to be dealt with first..."
"An expert with dual attributes of feng shui, proficient in alchemy, spirit descending, and summoning..."
"as well as……"
"Emiya Kiritsugu!" Irisviel continued gently and with a smile: "The strongest trump card that the Einzbern family has recruited—"
"my favorite person."
"..." Emiya Kiritsugu twitched the corner of his mouth imperceptibly, and continued: "The fourth, no, the fifth...Kotomine Kirei."
On the other side, in Fuyuki City, in a dark room——
"Rimru Tempest." Lidal smiled and slacked on Rimuru's neck, not minding the squinting Sasha and Aozaki Aoko who was frantically making question marks on her head, and replied: "From Another genius monarch of the Clock Tower, Achelot's fiancée...I..."
Snapped!
Rimuru bounced her off his body with a flick of his head, and continued rather helplessly: "The fourth is Emiya Kiritsugu."
"Emiya Kiritsugu...a very familiar name." After watching Rimuru pull Lidel off her body, Kuonji Arima, who was relieved for some reason, was slightly taken aback, and when she didn't realize it, Lidel Dale snapped and narrowed her eyes: "Emiya Kiritsugu? That bastard who shot you seven years ago?"
"Well, it's him."
"... Sougar, no wonder you wanted to let him go at that time, is it because you saw that he would be a participant in the Holy Grail War?" Serious look.
This guy really almost killed his friend!
"In this case, how about leaving this guy to me?"
"No."
"I refuse." On the side, Lidel and Sasha spoke at the same time, while Kuonji Yuzu did not speak, but fixed his eyes on Rimuru...
I stare at...
This made Limuru's pressure double.
"I said... calm down." Limulu spread his hands helplessly and said, "Listen to me first."
"The party represented by Kotomine Kirei belongs to Einzbern, and if nothing unexpected happens, their servant will be..." Limuru looked at Sasha lightly, and said softly, "Saber."
"No matter what, I will hand Saber over to you in the final battle, Sasha, don't forget that this is your opponent."
"...Yes, I understand, Rimuru-sama."
"As for Emiya Kiritsugu, to be honest, he's just a magician, not worth your shot, but no matter what, he once wanted to kill me, and letting him go twice doesn't mean I forgive him just like that " Limuru chuckled lightly: "Considering that the ancestral magic of the Emiya family is related to time, so..."
"Aoko, in the end, Emiya Kiritsugu will entrust you."
Chapter 007 Kariya, don't be afraid, I'll be your Heroic Spirit!
The sky in Fuyuki City was getting dark day by day. When Kariya Matou, who was reminded, dragged his exhausted and burdened body back to Matou Mansion, the lights in the house had not been turned off.
He saw that Rimuru was manipulating a water curtain, and a picture was appearing on it. It was the picture of the Tohsaka family that Rimuru's familiar was watching from a long distance.
"Finally, it's Tokiomi Tohsaka." Rimuru tilted his head and said helplessly, "The descendants of Tohsaka Nagato have more or less a relationship with Zellich, but apparently Zellich seems to be I may have forgotten this surname."
"However, Tosaka Tokiomi's lineage often has the characteristic that it will lose the chain at a critical moment, so it only needs to be placed where it is, and it will be fine when he makes a mistake. Don't care at all, what needs to be cared about...is his servant. "
Speaking of this, Limuru was silent for a moment: "Gilgamesh, the oldest king, is also one of the best among the heroic spirits, and he is a difficult target for us to suppress."
"Even you can't suppress it?" Lidal was slightly taken aback.
"Ah, considering that this Holy Grail War is destined to be fought under the noses of most people, I can't use the power of Zhu Yue and Zhenzu. Fight it."
"Then what if you and I are added?" Qingzi Aozaki raised his hand.
Hearing this, Kuonji Yuzu also slowly raised his head and looked at Rimuru.
"It's really hard to say." Limuru also tested after hearing the words: "To be honest, Gilgamesh's treasure is a bit restrained from the world of nursery rhymes with beads, but if you use magic, Qingzi will naturally stand in the opposite direction." place of defeat."
"But after all, your magic doesn't completely belong to time, and the personal limited time travel doesn't seem to have any effect on our battle situation—"
"But fortunately, Gilgamesh played as a bow-rank after all, which caused the opponent's mystery and anti-magic power to drop to an acceptable level."
For Limuru, the level of Gilgamesh Society has become very high, and the most difficult thing to fight against beings with some divinity is not the issue of combat power, but the level difference brought about by the level of life.
It was possible to fight against the gods during the Age of Gods, and Kim Pika's own mysterious level is definitely the highest.
A magician is one of the highest levels of magic power. If it comes from the wise king Jin Shining, coupled with clairvoyance above A, most of Limuru's magic will be seen through due to the mysterious nature, resulting in great power. The magnitude is reduced.
In this regard, it is unreasonable for high mystery to crush low mystery.
If you really want to say it, it's as helpless as the skill priority in the game.
By that time, it will no longer be a question of whether Limulu can suppress Jin Yingying, but whether the abilities of Limulu and others can take effect on Jin Yingying is the biggest question.
Limuru wants to summon a powerful heroic spirit, which is essentially aimed at this aspect-it is worth mentioning that Limuru's own mysterious level is actually very high, and the characteristics inherited as a slime, such as physical Immunity, splitting, super-speed regeneration, and even great sage and devouring ability belong to the top mysterious level, even reaching the level of law.
Limuru once tested that his physical immunity was not even able to overcome it by Alteluchi. Even the sharp curse of physical damage would be offset by these abilities when facing Limuru.
Moreover, even without these passives, after absorbing the power of the true ancestors of the two sisters, Heiji and Baiji, Limuru's own magic power can also release this part of the power, making her own magic power traits the same as those of the two sisters.
The characteristic of [Return of the Age of Gods], that's right, the quality of the magic circuits of Elquite and Eltruchi is called the Return of the Age of Gods. The appearance has reached the point where it completely deviates from the modernity of human beings. 】
As a result, Limuru can use this part of power to forcibly assimilate her mysterious level to the level of the age of gods—becoming a god walking in the world.
Therefore, when facing Gilgamesh, Limuru is not intimidated, but it is two different things to not lose the wind and defeat or even kill Jin Shining.
Moreover, besides Jin Glitter, other heroic spirits actually need attention.
In fact, most of the heroic spirits are more or less mysteriously blessed by the Alaya consciousness, so even if they become servants with a part of their strength weakened, it is still impossible for magicians to fight against them.
