Chapter 12
12 Fight! Berserker!
Chapter 12. Fight, Berserker!
"Your assistant is a human with extensive experience using firearms, but when faced with a magician, she probably wouldn't even imagine that I would use something as 'unconventional' as a bomb, would she?"
Magic is a combination of technology and magic, and Kiritsugu Emiya was an expert in this regard; most other magicians had never done it.
What's wrong with occasionally using so-called technological products?
With this "let's give it a try" mentality, Kirei Kotomine used "Irisviel" as bait to set this trap.
"You really are someone we have to deal with."
Suppressing the pain in his heart, Kiritsugu Emiya's gaze calmed down, and he spoke in a heavy tone.
He temporarily stopped thinking about what would happen to Maimi and Alice.
Now he must get through the current situation.
Saber's scabbard has been stolen and its whereabouts are currently unknown, but it is highly likely that it is being used by Kirei Kotomine himself.
In this way, even if the other party suffers a relatively "minor" fatal wound, they will not die.
The more he thought about this, the more he felt that Kirei Kotomine was a terrible enemy.
A meticulous magician whose methods are unconventional
He's someone very similar to me.
If we can't take him down here, it will definitely be a big problem.
(Assassin is already at a disadvantage and unable to come to his aid. Taking advantage of the moment he uses magic, the Origin Bullet has a chance to severely injure him.)
Considering the scabbard's miraculous effects, Kiritsugu found himself in a stalemate.
Simply injuring or crippling someone is meaningless to him.
He wasn't sure if Kirei Kotomine had really buried the scabbard inside his body.
This intelligence is very important and will affect subsequent plans and arrangements.
(We can only test the waters first.)
With this in mind, Kiritsugu decided to first use ordinary bullets to injure Kirei.
If the opponent's injuries heal on their own, then it proves that the scabbard is inside his body.
"Bang!"
…………
"Hahaha!!"
"Interesting. Such a rapid transformation. Did you learn something from Assassin?"
Gilgamesh, as an Archer, witnessed the entire process and became interested in Kirei Kotomine's actions.
A priest who claims to be without desires or wants is now beginning to touch the things he usually restrains.
That was the beginning of moral decay.
Kirei Kotomine, this eccentric cultivator, is quite a source of amusement.
"There are also reckless individuals who intend to get involved in this battle."
"That's perfect, it's time for me to make my appearance."
"With your supreme status, it's time to broaden the horizons of these scoundrels."
He had no intention of consulting with Tokiomi Tohsaka, who was his Master, and simply disappeared from the spot, still clad in his golden armor.
"Hmm"
Tokiomi Tohsaka, sitting in the basement, stiffened and hesitated, looking at the Command Seals on the back of his hand.
This wasn't the first or second time that Wang had acted without authorization.
However, his attempts to communicate with her all ended in failure.
That person described himself as
What a disappointing and boring subject!
Even with his low emotional intelligence, Tokiomi Tohsaka knew that he had left a very embarrassing impression on that king.
"never mind."
"As long as he doesn't do anything outrageous, there's no harm in letting him run wild."
He had never used any of the three Command Seals, so he had to be on guard at all times.
Considering Kotomine Ryougi's support, he might need to make some serious preparations.
"However, the Matou family's Master has yet to make a move."
The letter he sent went unanswered, and Tokiomi Tohsaka frowned, wondering what the other party's attitude was.
The disciple's report stated that "the Servant being ridden is Berserker, but their identity cannot be determined."
Based on this information, he sent the letter using his familiar.
The original intention was to test the waters by forming an alliance, but the other party completely ignored him.
Based on the previous relationship between the Matou and Tohsaka families.
This arrogant attitude of shutting people out is not at all like something Matou Ryogen would do.
Is there any special reason?
With these questions in mind, he had no choice but to personally send his familiar to investigate.
…………
Matou Kariya was already used to watching Berserker, who had just finished his work, carrying a bag on the street.
Berserker in modern clothes looks like a warm-hearted "good young man".
They help people push carts, find lost items, and play with children and the elderly.
This Servant was dressed so evilly and ominously before, but his inner self was completely different.
He was surprisingly popular even though he hadn't said a word.
Among the children and the elderly, a red-haired boy looked at him with bright, sparkling eyes.
"By the way, sir, could I borrow this book temporarily?"
"I haven't finished reading the story yet. I'll finish it when I get back today, and then I'll return it to you."
Holding up the thick, bound book, the red-haired boy asked excitedly.
Memoirs of the Azure Sky
It was a detailed record of a hero's story, which he found very interesting.
"."
"Very good!"
The child nodded, pleased to see the other person's response.
"Berserker, Sakura will be angry if we go back too late."
Watching the other person's tall figure leave, the boy's heart was filled with longing.
He found adults who were eager to help others and seemed omnipotent incredibly cool.
Is it really okay to lend that book to someone else?
"I remember Sakura seemed to be quite enthusiastic about it too."
Having witnessed Berserker's actions, Kariya still mentioned it.
But seeing the other party shake their head in acknowledgment, they didn't dwell on it any longer.
When the two returned to the Matou residence, they were greeted by a purple-haired girl with pouting lips waiting at the door.
With a wry smile, Yan Ye could already imagine the scene of being blamed.
But the next moment, he saw Sakura pull a large bead out of her skirt pocket, with stars twinkling inside.
Kariya knew that those were the items that the masters and servants were fighting over in this war.
But what was Sakura's intention in taking it out at this moment?
Berserker
"I've made up my mind, I'm going to participate in this war."
"Why? Sakura?"
Hearing the other party's serious words, Yan Ye was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand why Ying, who had never intended to get involved before, would change her attitude.
"The war will end sooner or later, at that time."
"You'll disappear, won't you?"
"Therefore, I need to steal the other Dragon Balls."
Despite her young age, she harbored unbridled desires; she was so straightforward.
Even Kariya could sense the girl's thoughts.
"You'll help me, won't you, Berserker?"
A faint smile appeared on her face as Matou Sakura spoke softly.
"."
He sighed, yet seemed to see someone's shadow, but Berserker didn't refuse anything.
He was summoned to this war because he heard Matou Sakura's cry for help.
Whether or not you should make a wish using the Dragon Balls is not important.
For him, if he were to truly fulfill his wish, it might simply be to bring back to life the lives lost in the cataclysmic disaster.
"Go to battle, Berserker!"
The Master has given the order, and the jet-black armor is already on his body.
The enormous figure disappeared.
With the Chinese New Year approaching, there will be fewer updates.
