Chapter 723 The Living Heroic Spirit
"Kietsu! Are you okay?"
Alice Phil quickly swept through the frost-covered corridor, the terrifying scratches on the walls and ceiling, as well as large blood and shells that could be left behind.
Judging from the situation on the scene, there was a fierce battle here.
Emiya Kiritsugu nodded expressionlessly: "Of course! I'm fine! And I've hit Kenneth hard just now. What about you? Didn't you encounter any danger, right?"
"No! We met Kirei Yanfeng! That guy almost killed his wife! Fortunately, Berserker arrived in time later, otherwise we would probably have two corpses now." Yuu Yu Yu said what he had just had in the most concise language.
"Yanfeng Kirei? Assassin's Imperial Master..." Kiritsugu Emiya's face changed slightly.
"Well! That man seems to have a strong interest in you, and even thinks that you are like him, who are born evil people who are extremely empty and lonely in their hearts."
Alice Phil's tone was filled with worry as he said this.
Because she understood that once a guy like Yanfeng Kirei set his sights on a certain target, he would never give up easily before losing interest.
If the other party's outstanding skills and Assassin's elusive assassin's ability to assassin, his husband's situation would be very dangerous.
This is why she has always wanted Allen to kill the other party.
"Am I being targeted?" Kiritsugu Emiya took out a cigarette from his pocket again, put it in his mouth and lit it.
It can be seen that the heavy pressure is almost about to force this guy to collapse.
Especially the battle tonight made him realize the cruelty and danger of the Holy Grail War for the first time.
Although the methods used to deal with other magicians were also applicable to geniuses like Kenneth, if there were a little mistake in the whole process, the dead person would become himself.
The Holy Grail War, which was participated by seven servants, was the least short of unexpected situations.
"Do you know that Rimasato Yan Feng, the priest of the Holy Church, actually established a very deep friendship with the Tosaka family a long time ago?" Allen suddenly asked in a daze.
"You mean...Yomo Kirei and his father are secretly helping Tosaka Toshiko?"
Kiritsugu Emiya deserves to be the one who won the final victory of the Fourth Holy Grail War in the original plot, and he suddenly noticed the subtext of the words just now.
After all, as early as the opening game, he had already discovered that Assassin was not killed on the spot by Kim Shanshan when he sneaked into Tosaka, as all the masters thought.
From this point alone, we can confirm that there is definitely a problem with the priest who took the message to Kirei.
However, considering that the two of them are father-son relationships, Kiritsugu Emiya always felt that this was just a simple father who was cheating on his son.
But now, he finally began to realize the seriousness of the problem.
You should know that the church and the Tosaka family are both managers of the mysterious power of this land and are officially recognized by the Magicians Association.
If both sides join forces to seize the Holy Grail, there will be no fairness in this war from the beginning.
"Haha, I'm only responsible for providing information. It's better for you to judge the specific situation yourself. Finally, I would like to remind you that your wish will never be fulfilled."
After saying this, Allen picked up Sakura and prepared to summon the flying mount to return to his residence.
But before he could jump out of the castle window, he heard the guard Miya Kiritsugu shouting: "Wait! Why? Why is my wish impossible to come true?"
"Why? I suggest you read "Das Kapital" to figure out how human society operates from ancient times to the present, and then you won't have such ridiculous thoughts. Make the world peaceful forever with the so-called miracle? Hahahaha! Sorry, I really couldn't imagine how ignorant and naive a person would have to have such thoughts. At least when I was seven years old, I already understood that the so-called eternal peace does not exist, especially for humans who are full of countless desires."
After saying this, Allen ignored the other party's iron-green face and directly summoned the young dragon of spirit wings to sweep over the woods.
Watching the two gradually disappear into the vast night, Kiritsugu Emiya took a deep breath, turned around and asked his wife: "How is it, have you talked to Berserker? What is his wish to realize when he participated in the Holy Grail War?"
"He doesn't desire the Holy Grail! His only wish is to find an opponent worth fighting." Alice Phil hurriedly told the information he had just collected.
"An opponent worth fighting?" Kiritsugu Emiya subconsciously frowned.
Alice Phil nodded seriously: "That's right! He hopes that the Hero King, the Conquer King and Saber can join forces to attack him together, and say that it will be the ultimate enjoyment."
"Are you looking for an opponent worth fighting? It sounds like something Berserker can say." The dai Maowang said with a hint of envy.
Because sometimes, she also hopes that she can let go of the past, put down the heavy responsibilities she shoulders, and compete with and fight with those strong men as a simple knight.
Unfortunately, as an existence who became a hero before she died, her obsession with her failure was so heavy that she could not let go even after so long.
"Huh--in this way, Berserker and his Lord have no essential opposition to us." Emiya Kiritsugu was obviously relieved.
"Where is that little girl? Doesn't she have any wishes to fulfill?" Alice Phil asked carefully.
Kiritsugu Emiya replied without thinking: "If I guess correctly, that little guy's biggest wish should be to keep Berserker by his side forever. With the total amount of magic she currently possesses, she can continue to maintain even after the Holy Grail War, and there is no need to rely on the power of the Holy Grail."
"So that's it! That's great!" Alice Phil covered her chest and showed an ecstatic expression.
As a mother, she was reluctant to kill Xiao Sakura, who was about the same age as her daughter.
"But although there is no fundamental conflict, Berserker is still a huge unstable factor. He knows too much, and he is the strongest servant in this Holy Grail War. If possible, I hope to form an alliance with him, and no matter how badly I have to sign a contract that does not interfere with each other. Otherwise, once he intervenes at a critical moment, things will become very troublesome." Kiritsugu Emiya narrowed his eyes and said his thoughts.
"Kiritsu! The followers of the Holy Grail War should be the souls of heroes in ancient or mythological legends? But why is only Berserker so unique, as if he knows everything? Don't you think this is strange?" Yuu Yuyu asked a question that troubled him.
"Saber, you are also a hero. What do you think of Berserker's abnormal situation?" Alice Phil asked her knight.
King Daimao hesitated for a moment, and then explained in an unsure tone: "Generally speaking, most heroes are heroes who have left great achievements and legends after their death, and are praised by countless people and have special existences of faith. The Holy Grail War is just the clone of heroes. After the war is over, they will return to the throne of heroes. The memories during the war will not be retained. But there are also some special heroes who have become heroes by signing contracts before their lifetime, so if they are summoned, they can retain their memories."
There is no doubt that she herself became a hero in this way.
This is why she was able to preserve the memory of the Fourth Holy Grail War completely in the Fifth Holy Grail War.
"Become a hero alive?" Alice Phil widened his eyes and showed an incredible expression.
"Then how did he know each of us well?" Kiritsugu Emiya questioned.
"I don't know! Maybe he was summoned to a parallel world, or even participated in the Holy Grail War that was very similar to our world, so he knew so much. Of course, it is not ruled out that he has treasures and abilities that can peek into other people's hearts, memories, and even souls." The dai Maowang analyzed with his head down.
Magicians are actually not unfamiliar with parallel worlds.
As early as the second magic was created, a small number of people had traveled to parallel space and space.
However, the power of magic is something that most magicians can't see. Although I have heard of a lot, I have not really seen it.
"So that's it! It seems that the origin of this Berserker seems to be quite not simple."
When saying this, the expression on Emiya Kiritsugu's face was extremely hard to see.
Because if this inference is correct, it means that in a parallel world, I also participated in the Fourth Holy Grail War and won the final victory, but I failed to realize my inner wish.
So at this moment, his mind was full of thinking about what was wrong.
Is it the Holy Grail's ability to achieve a grand and abstract desire like allowing mankind to maintain peace forever?
Or does human desire ultimately break the limit of the Holy Grail?
Or is it because the wording is not rigorous enough when you make your wish, which leads to a mistake in making your wish?
For a moment, Kiritsugu Emiya's brain fell into chaos, accompanied by strong self-doubt.
Similarly, Kenneth, who is far away in an abandoned factory in the suburbs of the city, is also facing the most important choice in his life.
Because his beloved fiancée, Sora Nazele Sofiali, brutally broke his little finger just a few seconds ago, and was holding the hand that had only the curse, threatening with a sick look on his face: "Dear, with my level of psychic therapy, I cannot forcefully pull out the curse rooted in your hand, only by obtaining your own consent. If you disagree no matter what, then I can only see this hand."
As the last word blurted out, the woman with short red hair showed a light that made Kenneth tremble all over her body.
He dared to promise that if he could say a word out of his mouth, the threat would immediately turn into a practical action.
Obviously, what Director Ken is most worried about finally happened.
The ruthlessness and cruelty of a woman towards "limbing dogs" is also vividly reflected at this moment...
