Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1317 Revenge on Kenneth

You know, Kenneth even used a gun in the end and killed Kotomine Risei.

All we can say is that he had no bottom line at that time.

Kenneth today is very close to Kenneth of that period.

The Holy Grail is a legendary relic endowed with the power to hear and grant human wishes.

However, this power is not a gift without a price, but a deal as twisted and evil as the abyss.

The realization of every wish is a brutal violation of the laws of the world and a sweet fruit obtained at the cost of the suffering of others.

For those who desire eternal life, the Holy Grail's response is to extinguish the flames of life of others and cast the shadow of death over the heads of innocent people, just in exchange for the illusion of one's own immortality.

And for those who are greedy for wealth, the Holy Grail will be like a greedy beast, devouring the sweat and dreams of countless people, and piling up gold, silver and jewelry into a ladder to despair.

In this cruel game called the Holy Grail War, each participant carries his or her own wish and embarks on a journey towards the unknown.

However, Emiya Kiritsugu, this cold-blooded tactician, has a wish that terrifies everyone who hears it - he longs for world peace, and the way the Holy Grail believes to achieve this is to make the human race completely disappear in the long river of history.

Waver, the magician who once participated in the Holy Grail War, finally saw through the truth behind the Holy Grail many years later.

It is a kind of malice that goes beyond human understanding and is a blasphemy against all the beautiful emotions in the world.

So, he joined hands with Toosaka Rin to dismantle the Holy Grail and seal this twisted power forever.

However, for Luther, this ever-repeating copy world - the world of the Holy Grail War, is just a scenery on his journey.

Here, his main task is only one, which is to help Nakano Miku become a real magician.

As for the Holy Grail War itself, those fierce battles and complicated conspiracies are nothing but passing clouds and are insignificant.

Luther told Kenneth the information he had obtained through his "investigation" in a relaxed and mysterious manner.

"The Master of the Einzbern family, Irisviel, is not a mortal, but the carrier of the man-made Holy Grail."

Kenneth's eyes flashed with shock when he heard this, and then he thought deeply.

He immediately realized the importance of this information.

If the Holy Grail could be obtained in advance through Irisviel, everything would become simple and straightforward.

"So, we must catch that Irisviel next!"

Kenneth said.

"Right on my mind."

Luther smiled and said that the king's banquet was not important at all. Jin Shanshan didn't even have the king's treasure now, so even if there was a king's banquet, he couldn't make it a big event.

Kenneth looked at Luther and Berserker, and an unprecedented sense of pride surged in his heart.

He already knew that this Berserker was actually Lancelot from the famous Knights of the Round Table.

And just recently, he lost Diarmuid, the prototype of Lancelot.

Now, he not only has Lancelot, but also Luther, the strongest servant in this Holy Grail War.

However, Luther's autonomy made him feel somewhat helpless.

This powerful Servant does not seem to be under his control, and not even Nakano Miku can command him.

Kayneth has always looked down on these servants, thinking that they are just familiars. However, as time goes by, his views are gradually changing.

He began to realize that these Servants also had their own will and emotions, and they were not simply tools or pawns.

That very night, the Einzbern family's castle was attacked again.

Kenneth stood outside the castle, staring intently at the battlefield below.

His heart was filled with anger and resentment.

His fiancée Sora was kidnapped by the enemy, and his magic circuits were ruthlessly destroyed. These hatreds were like a blazing fire, devouring his mind and soul.

"That's great. I also have a score to settle with them!"

Kenneth's eyes widened with anger and veins bulged.

"How is that possible, Kenneth?"

Kiritsugu Emiya didn't expect to see Kenneth again. Hadn't Kenneth been destroyed by him?

As expected, we should eradicate the roots and kill them all.

But Kiritsugu Emiya couldn't find Kayneth and thought he had left.

I didn’t expect him to make a comeback now, and the black armored servant following him is obviously Berserker!

Have you reached a cooperation with the Matou family?
Emiya Kiritsugu looked grim.

“Maiya, escort Irisviel away from here.”

Kiritsugu Emiya planned to stay and fight with Kayneth by himself. Although he already knew about his origin bullet, Kayneth must be well prepared and would not be so easy to deal with.

But he didn't intend to fight to the death with Kenneth here.

"Saber, make sure to contain the opposing Servant!"

Emiya Kiritsugu's voice was calm and resolute, and it came clearly into Altria's ears through the radio waves of the communicator.

Upon hearing this, Altria's eyes gently swept over Irisviel beside her, who was looking back at her with a worried and determined look.

The British king nodded slightly, his long golden hair swaying gently in the breeze, and then he rushed towards the knight Lancelot, who was wearing black armor and exuding a violent aura, not far away, like a silver lightning.

Lancelot, the best of the Knights of the Round Table, had an irrepressible excitement and enthusiasm in his eyes the moment he saw Altria.

His chest rose and fell violently, as if he had thousands of words to say, but in the end, he only called out in a vague and low voice: "Arthur..."

The voice contained endless complex emotions, including nostalgia for the old master, as well as anger and unwillingness caused by misunderstanding.

However, Altria naturally could not discern the other party's intentions from this ambiguous call.

She tightly grasped the golden sword that shone with golden light, and said in a firm and cold voice: "Berserker, let's have a fair fight!"

Lancelot was silent for a moment after hearing this, with a determined light flashing in his red eyes.

This moment was his chance to realize what he had long desired - to completely end the entanglement with his former king.

Then, he slowly raised his right hand, palm facing up, and with the surge of an indescribable power, an ancient and mysterious sword slowly rose from his chest - it was the "Indestructible Lake Light" known as an A++-level treasure.

Because this sword was transformed into a demonic sword, the sword body that should have been bathed in holy light was now as dark as the abyss, as if it could swallow up all light, making it impossible to glimpse its true appearance.
