The Divine Power of Comprehensive Comics

From Tosaka Tokiomi's point of view, this battle could not be called a magic showdown at all, but just a farce.

Tokiomi just maintained the defensive formation silently and had not yet made any move that could be called an attack.

Despite this, Matou Kariya on the opposite side was already on the verge of death.

This is completely suicidal. For Kariya now, the very act of using magic is a fatal act of suicide.

Kariya, who was involved, must have known this very well, but he still continued to use techniques that exceeded human limits without hesitation, and in the end he could only reap the consequences.

Kariya's current appearance was simply too horrible to look at. All the capillaries in his body were broken and blood foam was flying everywhere.

His own body, which could no longer stand at all, was already crumbling, as if he was submerged in a dance of blood.

The face that rolled its eyes because of too much pain made it impossible to judge whether the person involved was still conscious.

You speak so arrogantly... but once you take action, do you become this virtuous?

And the saddest thing is that no matter how much Kariya tried to injure his life to mobilize his magic power, his attacks were never able to hurt Tokiomi even a hair.

Moths fly into the flame.

It is no exaggeration to use this idiom to describe the current scene.

The swarms of beetles rushed towards Tokiomi's flame array, but they were unable to break through the defense and were all burned without a trace.

As an insect user, it was extremely stupid to challenge the flames head-on. Despite this, Kariya's attack did not let up at all. The reduction of his own life drove the insects to charge in vain, like moths to the flame. This situation made people unable to laugh anymore. For this extremely weak enemy, Tokiomi went beyond contempt to the limit and began to feel pity for him.

Soon, the flames will burn out all the insects in Kariya.

At that time, Kariya himself would probably die of anger because he could not bear the pain.

As long as you pay attention to maintaining your own magic, you can just sit back and watch leisurely.

Under his impregnable defense, the outcome will naturally be decided.

But for Tokiomi, who respects the noble path of magic, the greatest displeasure is to continue to expose the ugly appearance of a fallen magician who has gone astray before his eyes.

Intensive einascherung! (Give our enemy a harsh cremation)

As Tokiomi chanted two verses, the fire snakes in the defensive formation slowly snaked towards the eyes.

Kariya didn't even have a defense. It was doubtful that this magician, who was a quick learner, had any knowledge of counterattack spells.

Kill...kill you...Tokiomi...I must kill you...

Although he was burned by the blazing red flames, Kariya didn't even scream, he just kept repeating the curse in a low voice.

His body, which had been eaten away by insects from the inside, may no longer feel pain.

Just as Kariya shook off the flames that enveloped his body and twisted in pain, he lost his footing on the edge of the platform and rolled down the eaves, falling into the darkness surrounded by woods.

Finally, Tokiomi wiped away the insects that were still entrenched around him with flames, then disbanded the defensive formation and sighed while adjusting his clothes.

There is no need to confirm the corpse. Even if the opponent is still alive, he will definitely not live long. Then he just needs to wait for Berserker, who has lost his Master, to disappear naturally.

Looking back, this was the first time Irisviel felt uneasy since she set foot on Fuyuki's land.

She once again realized the importance of Saber who had always been by her side. The quiet confidence and tolerance emanating from that petite body gave Alice Fille great peace of mind.

Kuu Maiya, who is now following her in Saber's place, is not trustworthy as a bodyguard. Kiritsugu also thinks highly of Maiya's ability, and does not mean to doubt her.

So what is this strange feeling of unease?

There was no dialogue between the two people who left the castle to escape and walked in the forest of enchantment.

Indeed, Maiya didn't seem to be the type who liked small talk, but the other party's complete silence was still too heavy for Irisviel.

Would she respond if she spoke first?

There's nothing to lose by trying it. That person is in a safe zone isolated from the battle, not in a crisis situation where he needs to keep quiet.

In this case, Irisviel was about to muster up the courage to speak, but didn't know what to say, when Irisviel stopped her words again.

There are so many things I want to ask about, including my encounter with Kiritsugu, the memories of spending time with him, and the character of Kiritsugu in Maiya’s eyes.

No matter which question I asked, Irisviel felt hesitant.

What she didn't know about Emiya Kiritsugu, Kuu Maiya knew.

If the answer from Maiya's mouth is impactful enough to destroy her husband's image in Irisviel's heart.

There is no way such a thing can happen, and there is absolutely no basis for such denial.

Because to Irisviel, the nine short years since they met were everything to Kiritsugu.

While walking in that troubled circle, the silence continued. Although the atmosphere was obviously awkward, Maiya moved forward silently without paying any attention to it.

'I'm really not good at dealing with this woman...'

As I lowered my head and sighed deeply, an alarm flashed through Irisviel's mind.

...!?

Maiya looked at Irisviel who suddenly stood still with a surprised look on her face.

What's the matter, ma'am?

...There are new intruders. One just left, and now two more have arrived. Those who continue walking will meet each other.

This was an expected situation, and Maiya nodded calmly.

Then take a roundabout way. It will be safe if you go north from here.

Chapter 59 Kotomine Kirei (second update)

Irisviel, who was in a trance while using her clairvoyance magic to examine the appearance of the intruder, did not answer immediately.

The tall man wearing jet-black monk robes and full of intimidation, with short hair and a serious look were exactly the same as the photos in Kiritsugu's collection of documents.
