Type-Moon My Destiny Illustrated Book

【New Moon】

Staring at the words above, Emiya Kiritsugu read them in a trance for a long time, then suddenly stood up and walked out into the rain without looking back.

There was no light in his eyes, but something was burning, like a revengeful evil spirit crawling out of a tombstone.

Lost...

The red-haired burly man was lying on the grass in a "big" shape, his battle robe torn to pieces.

"That guy is worthy of being the Hero King of Ancient Babylonia..." After giving a bitter smile, Iskandar barely stood up and heard the protests from all his organs as they were overwhelmed.

Yet these sounds are nothing but empty, disembodied echoes.

He is a Servant, a being made of magic power, and does not have a real physical body.

In other words, these servants are nothing more than familiars, even the highest-ranking ones.

As long as it is a familiar, it must obtain magic power from the contractor. However, now that the contract is broken, Iskandar can only fight with his own magic power, so he fell into a disadvantage in the fight with Gilgamesh.

Just when he was about to use the "King's Army" to end it all, Gilgamesh seemed to realize something, and directly stepped onto the Ark Vimaya and disappeared in front of Iskandar.

Strictly speaking, this was a draw, but for the King of Conquerors, not capturing his opponent meant failure.

"There's not much magic power left." Although he muttered this, Iskandar still squeezed out the remaining strength and summoned the Wheel of Might.

He was the King of Conquerors, and even if he died, he wanted to die on the road ahead, rather than lying on a lawn and waiting for death to come.

"Although you are tired, please walk with me for a while, Bull."

The bull mooed obediently, then kicked up its hooves, carrying Iskandar into the air, heading towards the church.

Although he arrived a little late, Waver told him everything before the contract was severed, including the fact that Kotomine Kirei, who claimed to be the supervisor, had come to visit him.

In other words, Kotomine Kirei must know something.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and the raindrops falling from the gray curtain soaked the gaps in the armor. The red-haired strong man squinted his eyes, feeling the coolness transmitted to his limbs and bones, greedily wanting to feel in touch with this world.

Being able to touch the world means being able to measure this land with your hands and feet, and to conquer all the territories within your sight.

When I thought of this, endless joy welled up from the depths of my soul, as if I were drinking a cool ice spring on a hot day.

Ahhh, how wonderful this is.

It's a pity that this kind of enjoyment can only end today...

Suddenly, Iskandar's attention was attracted by a man in black running on the street.

"Is this the magician killer from the group?"

At the same time, the man in black also raised his head as if he had sensed something. Raindrops fell from the ends of his hair, soaking his whole body, making him look as disheveled as Iskandar who was also caught in the rain, but even thinner, like a lone wolf who was still ferocious even with a broken thigh.

? ”

A Servant who lost his Master, and a Master who lost his Servant. The gears of fate turned and meshed with each other by such a coincidence.

When Irisviel opened her eyes, she unexpectedly found herself resting on the bed. The man beside her smiled with relief when he saw her wake up, then turned away in shame, not looking at her, and shouted:

"Sakutsuki, Irisviel has woken up."

"Oh, I'll be right there."

The diamond-shaped space opened up, and a young man wearing a cooking apron who seemed to be preparing dinner appeared in front of Irisviel. He greeted her as she stared in astonishment:

"Hey, ma'am, long time no see."

"This is...you...this is?"

Irisviel looked at the unusually harmonious He Shuoyue and her mind went blank. After a moment, she organized her words:

"You have formed an alliance secretly?"

"Correct." Shuoyue snapped his fingers. "Because of one reason, I succeeded in convincing her and made her my right-hand man."

"A...reason?"

"Yeah, a reason." Seeing the sly smile on Shuoyue's lips, he thought to himself that it was not good and wanted to stop him but it was too late.

"If you, Einzbern, still remember the great accident during the Third Holy Grail War, you should be even more aware that this Fourth War may have 'abnormalities' - in short, the Holy Grail has now been contaminated by magic power and is completely broken."

"This... how is it possible?" Irisviel wanted to refute, but Shuoyue's expression did not indicate a joke, and even nodded slightly, agreeing with what he said.

In other words, there is really something wrong with the Holy Grail system?

That is the thousand-year-old wish of us Einzbern...

What should Kiritsugu do with his dream?

As an Einzbern android, a staunch supporter of Emiya Kiritsugu, and also the one responsible for connecting the Lesser Holy Grail, Irisviel was, as expected, shocked. Her expression was dull, and her eyes were lifeless, as if she had broken down before the Greater Holy Grail.

“The rest is up to you. Make sure your wife cooperates with our actions.” After dealing with Irisviel, Shuoyue turned around leisurely and returned to the diamond-shaped space. “The dishes in the kitchen are cooked to perfection. I’ll go back and continue cooking. But to be honest, I didn’t expect Hisahi Maiya to be such a good cook.”

The replacement magic was turned off, and looking at Irisviel who could only make a fuss, he sighed helplessly.

"Shuo Yue...you bastard."

If she wants Irisviel to face reality, she will probably have to spend a lot of effort.

On the other hand, Waver, who was also kidnapped, did not face the same evil end as Irisviel. Fortunately, this weak, pitiful and helpless former Master was now being tied up, imprisoned and trained.

Only.

Chapter 169: Rider and Emiya Kiritsugu, a new combination

"Is this all right?"

"Hmph, what are you doubting? Are you doubting that the treasure can't restrain a poor magus, or are you doubting the decision I made?"

"I dare not, Hero King. As a director, I always have to make sure that the actors are in place. If I just tie his hands and feet, I'm worried that this disobedient actor will run away.

"This is ridiculous! Do you think a little magician like this, who is no different from an ordinary person, can break my treasure? This is a D-level snake chain, a living rope. Even if it is damaged, it can be easily repaired. Using such a treasure to deal with this kind of bastard is already the greatest tolerance from the king!"

...Is there someone next to me? It's so noisy...

As his consciousness awakened, his stagnant thoughts began to work again. Weber moved his body subconsciously, but he felt involuntary signals coming from his limbs. The cold and slippery touch spread along his skin, like a poisonous snake invading Weber's heart.

"This is...toxic..." Weber couldn't help but groan in pain. He didn't even need to look at himself in the mirror. Weber believed that his face must be very ugly at this moment.

It should be a type of poison that continuously weakens physical strength and is transmitted through the skin. It is not lethal, but is only meant to prevent the captives from having the strength to escape. Moreover, as a hostage, the priest Kotomine Kirei will never let him die easily.

The two voices outside the door continued to communicate.

"What should we do next, Kirei? Are you going to perform for me a boring drama of kidnapping hostages? I didn't let you kill Tōsaka Tokiomi just to see an even more boring performance."

"Of course not, Hero King..."

The voice gradually faded away, and it was obvious that the two of them had moved away from the room where Waver was. But even so, the information revealed in the few words was enough for Waver to think carefully:

The King of Heroes, that is to say, Tōsaka Tokiomi's Servant?

Allowing you to kill Tōsaka Tokiomi... Could it be that Kotomine Kirei murdered his master and joined forces with him? !

Trying hard to ignore the feeling of weakness in his limbs, Weber frowned, and found things increasingly confusing.

Yesterday, Tōsaka Tokiomi was still alive, which means he had not been dead for long. No wonder we did not notice it... But why? Why did Kotomine Kirei kill his teacher? Why did he sign a contract with him? Where was Kotomine Kirei yesterday?

No, that's not the point. The point is why did Kotomine Kirei kidnap me? As the second supervisor of the church, he knew that interfering in the Holy Grail War was against the agreement between the Holy Church and the Magician's Association. Once I informed...

Once I tell on you...

The little bit of blood left on Weber's face faded away, and only paleness remained.

This participant in the Holy Grail War finally realized that he was standing on the edge of a cliff.

Whether he was controlled or killed, no matter what, Kotomine Kirei would not let him walk out of this cell with his free personality.

The reasons, the process, the causes and consequences...these are no longer important. What is important is how I survived this death crisis.

No, not to mention that there was no Command Seal, I don’t know what method the priest used, even the contract between him and was blocked.

Waver, who didn't know the truth, sighed inwardly and finally put aside all distracting thoughts.

At this point, I can only rely on myself to escape.

First of all, if you want to escape, you must understand what is binding you. From what I heard, it seems to be a D-rank treasure called "Snake Chain". Combined with the description, it has the characteristics of being alive, self-healing, and having a poison that can weaken physical strength.

With his current weak physical strength, it is impossible for him to move while being tied up. He must break the ropes on his body, and Weber already has a way to do this.

But if it is a living being, does it have self-awareness?

Weber bravely opened his eyes secretly, and what came into view was a snake body with ominous patterns. The snake's tail was tied to his ankle, and the snake's head was facing Weber's face. A triangular snake head was facing his forehead, hissing and spitting out its tongue.

No way, do you have to be so disgusting...

Weber's scalp tingled, but he still suppressed the feeling of nausea and stared into the eyes of the Viper. After a moment, he confirmed a fact.

There was no sign of a familiar, nor any trace of autonomous magic.

Considering the special nature of the Noble Phantasm, Waver even had the courage to utter a few spells. Apart from the protest from the internal magic circuit, the 'venomous snake' that bound him only moved a few times mechanically without showing any stress response.

It is basically determined that it has no intelligence, but it is true that a D-level Noble Phantasm cannot be so advanced...

Weber breathed a sigh of relief, then tensed his body, bent down little by little, and touched the sole of his shoe.

Although he had lost most of his strength, he could still perform simple movements.

However, at this moment, there was a creaking sound at the door.

The door of the room was opened, and the brilliant golden light made Waver squint his eyes and whine inwardly.

Why didn't I hear any sound? Not even footsteps!

But when he saw clearly who was coming, a shudder suddenly spread throughout his body, and endless fear exploded in his heart.

Servant,!

The pair of blood-colored snake eyes were staring at Weber, with an interested smile in their eyes.

That was the look of a cold-blooded animal eyeing its prey.

When Waver met with tragedy, his beloved Servant was meeting with Emiya Kiritsugu.

then……

Just like the love song goes, "Just because I took one more look at you in the crowd..."

No, change the song and put on a more suitable one.

"He runs away, he chases, he can't escape even if he has wings..."

When Emiya Kiritsugu noticed that he was staring at the Command Seal in his hand, he turned around and fled without hesitation.

He is now a lone Master and has no power to fight against his Servants.

However, what he didn't know was that Iskandar was in a state of paranoia because his master was kidnapped.

He ran away when he saw me... Could it be that Emiya Kiritsugu was an accomplice? Moreover, he still had the Command Seals in his hand, so he was the real Master!

After a brief hesitation, he shook the reins without hesitation and drove after the horse.

If he is an accomplice, then we will be able to extract information about Weber from him by torture.

If not, as a killer, Emiya Kiritsugu's ability to gather intelligence must be much stronger than that of a burly man like him!

"Don't run away, Einzbern's killer—"

Fortunately, it was raining and the streets were empty, otherwise because of this shout, Kotomine Kirei would have to rush out to clean up the mess.

When Emiya Kiritsugu heard the loud voice, he did not stop but ran even faster, even briefly activating his inherent time control and rushing towards the downtown area with all his might.

It's daytime now. As long as you blend into the crowd, even the King of Conquerors won't dare to rush up to you!

However, Kiritsugu overlooked one question - would a king not have thought of such a thing?

What's more, he is not that freak like Shuoyue, and how can a human's quality be compared with that of a Servant!

In just a moment, the ox cart in the sky approached him, and a black shadow fell from the sky. If Kiritsugu Emiya had not dodged quickly, he would have been crushed by the mountain and seriously injured and died.

However... the current situation is not far from exiting.

"Magician Killer, Emiya Kiritsugu." The sword of Cypriote was wrapped in lightning, locking onto the grim-looking Emiya Kiritsugu. The red-haired sturdy man looked solemn and said in a deep voice, "I ask you, why are you running?"

"Then what are you chasing?"

"Will I chase you if you don't run?" After taking the initiative, Iskandar knew that time was running out, so he said frankly, "Because of Kotomine Kirei and, perhaps, some other reason I don't know, anyway, my Master Waver has been kidnapped and the contract has been terminated. In other words, I..."

"You want to make a contract with me, right?" Emiya Kiritsugu was silent for a moment, wanting to bargain, but the current situation did not allow him to waste time, not to mention that he was in a more urgent situation. "It just so happens that I also have the mission of killing Kotomine Kirei - stop talking nonsense and make a contract."
