Chapter 495 Kenneth

Kenneth's magic workshop is located on the upper floors of a building in Miyama-cho, Fuyuki City.

In order to make it easier to set up the workshop, he deliberately used some of his financial abilities.

The entire building, with floors above ten, were contracted in advance.

In the internal floor space, not only are various barriers set up layer by layer.

The internal space is also alienated to better prevent invasion.

It can be said that the interior of the entire building is filled with numerous mechanisms, and is also decorated with many magic costumes collected or created by Kenneth.

The entire floor is a solid fortress of perfect quality.

In the original storyline, such a magic workshop was successfully destroyed by Emiya Kiritsugu using a large amount of C4 explosives...

However, for now, due to Song Ren's intervention, Emiya Kiritsugu is now unable to take care of himself and has no chance to attack others for the time being.

At this moment, on the top floor of the building.

In the luxurious rooftop living room, Kenneth was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

His blond hair was neatly combed back, but his temples were a little messy.

My vague outline was reflected in the glass frame in front of me.

The night was dark, and he was looking towards the warehouse street in the distance with fear in his eyes.

I have escaped and returned...

But what should we do next?
In this Holy Grail War, a monstrous Master appeared!

Even though he was known as a child prodigy since he was young, he became one of the twelve monarchs of the Clock Tower at a young age.

But now Kenneth still feels confused and desperate about his next actions.

In my mind, there are always those lingering war scenes.

clatter! clatter! clatter!
When the high heels took steps, there was a sudden sound of them hitting the floor.

A lady with blood-red hair walked in from outside the room.

Fiery short hair, a white shirt for women, and a pair of brown slim shorts.

The visitor was Kenneth's fiancée, Sora.

When she walked in, she was holding a glass of red wine in her hand, and her voice was high and cold, even with a hint of ridicule:

"You just went out for a while, but you've become so distracted. Where's your initial arrogance? This change is really unexpected, Lord El-Melloi."

Kenneth was silent.

He didn't know how to describe the monsters he saw on this trip.

Even without mentioning BUG-level masters like Song Ren.

The King of Conquerors Iskandar, who had died in battle, alone possessed an unimaginable power of suppression.

If someone else hadn't forcibly broken the inherent barrier at that time.

Otherwise, he alone, even together with Lancer Diarmuid, would be directly buried in the army of the king formed by the mind image.

Moreover, if we continue to compare, including that Saber lady, all attributes are very high.

In particular, it has also demonstrated a golden treasure of military level.

As for the arrogant servant covered in golden armor and conceited, he is also a dangerous character.

Kenneth felt a chill on his scalp when he thought of the remaining participants in the Holy Grail War.

I had an inexplicable intuition that I couldn't defeat any of the remaining ones...

Sora saw his decadence and couldn't help but emphasize his tone and said:
"How come, even though you are known as the number one prodigy in the spirit summoning department, you would fall so quickly?"

Kenneth looked at the night view outside the window, still silent.

After a moment, he finally spoke: "You won't understand, Sora. Seeing the huge gap between the two sides with your own eyes, the sense of despair that arises naturally will only grow stronger."

At this point, he caught a glimpse of Diarmuid on one knee, and his tone was somewhat filled with anger:
"Moreover, this huge gap is not just between the masters."

Upon hearing this, Diarmuid lowered his head in shame, but his tone became more resolute, and he said, "I swear on the honor of a knight that I will do my best to assist my lord and win this Holy Grail War."

When Kenneth heard this, he became even angrier.

What does it mean to try your best? When we first signed the contract, you were clearly very confident about it!
After the initial fight, has the tone changed?

However, before he could finish his words of admonition, Sora next to him took over the conversation:

"Kenneth, venting your impotent anger on others at will is such a despicable act. It is not something a monarch of the Clock Tower should do."

At the end of her speech, she adopted a soothing tone:
"Besides, Kenneth, you don't have to be too pessimistic."

"You should know that in this Holy Grail War, you have an extra advantage over other Masters that no one else has."

At the beginning, during the initial contract summoning process, Kenneth deliberately added some modified rituals.

It is an informal contract between the Servant and the Master.

Kayneth obtained the Command Seals alone, while Sora was the nominal Master, responsible for providing magic power to Lancer.

In this way, Kenneth, as the Master, can carry out other actions more freely.

However, Sora obviously underestimated the other participants.

Because in the original storyline, few of the Masters of the Holy Grail War were summoned in a completely formal way...

In the room, Sora's slightly cold and soothing voice continued:

"Besides, you shouldn't underestimate Lancer too much."

"He is praised as 'unparalleled in the world', the glorious appearance - Diarmuid!"

"With your superb attainments in magic, combined with the renowned Diarmuid, if we really talk about the depth of your background, I'm afraid no one can compare with you in this Holy Grail War."

Kenneth: ...That’s what I thought at first.

Diarmuid also lowered his head in embarrassment: ...Unparalleled in the world? I am really ashamed.

Seeing that his comfort didn't seem to work, Sora was about to add something, but he noticed that the sky in the distance suddenly began to bloom with extremely bright lights!

She was slightly surprised: "What is that? Who is setting off fireworks in this winter?"

Kenneth's face had already changed.

Diarmuid nodded and said in a heavy voice: "It should be the last Archer left at that time, and the man named Matou Kariya!"

The next moment, a strong wind blew from higher and farther outside the window and suddenly blew to the floor-to-ceiling window.

The whistling of birds outside could be heard in my ears.

Kenneth looked grim.

At this distance, how can I still feel such a magnificent impact?

Sora also noticed something unusual about the two.

Looking up at the dome, there was an exceptionally bright red light gathering there.

She was surprised and said, "Could it be that the above is the so-called war between Servants?"

Both of them fell silent.

Sora was speechless for a moment.

It would be fine if they just fired in the sky, but they also created dazzling streams of light like fireworks?
This is outrageous!
Also, what's with that blinding red light?

I always felt a palpitation. Then, in the next moment, a beam of red light that had been accumulating for a long time, enough to cover the sky and the sun, completely dyed most of the night sky of Fuyuki City red.

In a flash, a strong hurricane hit!

The entire building seemed to start shaking at this moment!
The stream of light above the dome has completely disappeared!
The last of the red light was also fading away bit by bit.

It’s just because of the distance that I can’t see more of the picture.

The exact outcome is still unknown.

But the grand scale of the battle scene just now had already made Sora deeply stunned.

There was no longer the coolness and confidence in his voice that he had at the beginning.

Sora murmured, "Is this the war between Servants?"

Kenneth shook his head: "I'm afraid not."

Sora looked over in confusion.

Kenneth: "If I'm not mistaken, the scene on the ceiling just now should be a war between the Servant and the Master."

Sora:? ? ?
Kenneth, did you use the wrong term?
Although she also knew that the Masters participating in the Holy Grail War were all people with outstanding strength and talent.

But, to be so outstanding that he could fly straight into the sky and go head-to-head with a servant of that level, isn't this a bit outrageous!

At this moment, Diarmuid, who was leaning on one knee, suddenly raised his head.

At the same time, Kenneth also looked over.

Diarmuid said confidently: "Your Highness Kayneth, the aura of the person coming here is not concealed at all. It is undoubtedly Berserker."

Kenneth's face turned pale. He remembered that Berserker was the servant of that monster.

And since the other party has chased here, it means that the monster is not only not dead, but it is very likely to follow closely.

When Kenneth thought of this, no matter how conceited he was, he felt a shudder all over.

Diarmuid stood up and said solemnly, "Please allow me to take action and deal with the Berserker who is breaking into the barrier."

Kenneth waved his hand palely, signaling him to go ahead and take action.

But his own mind was already in a mess and confusion.

Sora didn't pay attention to Diarmuid's departure for the time being, but looked at Kayneth's appearance and subconsciously asked:

"Kenneth, what are you afraid of?"

"With someone like you like this, how can you be worthy of the title of the number one prodigy in the Spiritual Summoning Department!"

Kenneth just murmured: "It's that monster, he's coming..."

Sora: "What...monster?"

The voice just fell.

boom!
The floor-to-ceiling window on the side suddenly burst open, and a human-shaped silhouette appeared on the top floor of a building hundreds of meters high.

Song Ren stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, holding onto the windowsill with one hand.

He raised his eyes slightly and examined the two people in the room. Finally, he chuckled and said:

"Excuse me, those monsters you were talking about just now, you weren't talking about me, were you?"

The night wind rushed into the room through the broken window, blowing on the other person, causing the thin clothes to gradually flutter.

The deep and dark pupils in those narrow eyes were looking at each other.

In just a moment, Sora seemed to understand.

Why did the genius fiancé, who used to be so proud and conceited, become so distraught after just going out for a trip?

Looking at the other person's sharp eyes, Sora subconsciously took a step back: "Is it, is it him?"

Kenneth felt like he was frozen in place.

At this moment, it seemed as if all the blood in my body had frozen, and my body was completely unable to move due to fear.

Finally, he pursed his lips with difficulty and raised his fingertips a little bit with all his strength.

The next moment, a cup containing a special reagent that looked like mercury fell from his sleeve.

As the Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid broke out of the bottle, countless mercury-like liquids rushed towards Song Ren in the direction of the window.

The Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid transformed into several silver-white horse-slaying swords in mid-air, which cut down all the enemies from all angles in an instant.

Snapped!
It's like waving away a water stain!
Song Ren simply waved his arm, and the horse-slaying sword transformed from the Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid was dispersed into pus and hit the wall of the living room.

The walls are collapsing inwards!

When Kenneth subconsciously turned his head to take a look, a shadow suddenly appeared in front of him.

Song Ren stood quietly beside him, placing one hand lightly on his shoulder.

Next to the stiff Kenneth, he whispered, "Checkmate."

Kenneth's face turned pale: "..."

The situation was worse than he had expected.

Defeated in just a moment!
This aspect was not too unexpected, but the other party chose to invade from the top floor as soon as he appeared, which was what was most unbelievable to him.

Sora just reacted at this moment.

Although she was harsh in her words.

She has always been used to being sarcastic towards her fiancé, but when it comes to real strength, she is still far behind.

When I noticed the figure disappearing in front of me, my heart started beating violently.

She turned her head stiffly and saw Kenneth and Song Ren standing back to back.

The two figures standing side by side, through Kenneth, could vaguely see a silhouette of light and shadow next to them.

She turned her head and said subconsciously: "Kenneth..."

Kenneth was still frozen there, and Song Ren's calm voice came to his ears: "Don't worry, I just have something to do and I need a magician to help me."

There are not many servants left now, and the next thing to consider is the issue of the Holy Grail summoning.

He really needs a magician to help him in this regard.

This is also the reason why Song Ren has been deliberately going easy on Kenneth from the beginning to the end.

Compared to other magicians, Kenneth is the only one whose professionalism is precise enough and whose thoughts are normal.

As for the rest.

Similar to Emiya Kiritsugu, Kotomine Kirei, and Tōsaka Tokiomi, these guys all have some mental problems to a certain extent, and they cannot be subdued by simple coercion.

Kenneth broke out in sweat. In this situation, he had no choice at all.

They have already hidden in the most secure magic workshop, but it is still useless here.

Suddenly!

A strong wind blew up first!
In the living room, a gorgeous blood-red spear came from far away and stabbed straight at Song Ren's throat in an instant!
It was Diarmuid who had returned, and the blood-red spear was none other than his treasure, the demon-destroying red rose!

The blood-red tip of the gun finally touched Song Ren's throat.

Diarmuid said in a very serious tone: "Sir, please let go of my Master!"
