In the world of Type-Moon, start by becoming Morgan's husband!

Logically speaking, at this point, a normal master should directly reject Li Shuwen's request even for the sake of his own reputation.

After all, this doesn't sound like an act designed to win.

however--

For Kotomine Kirei, whose cognition had long been distorted by years of training and who embarked on the path of pleasure after the death of Archer Gilgamesh in the last Holy Grail War.

Such behavior is of great value.

Against common sense?

good thing.

Illogical?

no problem.

As long as you can get enough fun from it, it's all worth it.

after all--

Gilgamesh once taught me something seriously at the cost of his own death.

"Pursuing what you want to do is entertainment; entertainment can bring pleasure, and pleasure can increase people's happiness."

In this case, everything we do is reasonable, right?

Adhering to the path of pleasure, Kotomine Kirei fully supports Assassin Li Shuwen's suggestion.

"Ok."

"I'll set up the ring for you right away."

Kotomine Kirei was not just talking.

After promising his own servant.

In less than a week, he spent a lot of manpower and resources to build an extremely Chinese-style arena in a suitable place according to Li Shuwen's requirements.

Deep in the night, the moon is always bright.

Li Shuwen stepped onto the stage and felt his heart pounding.

The determination that had disappeared for a long time now reappeared in his mind.

This is the fundamental difference between his two age groups - if the two had the chance to meet, they might just come to blows on the spot.

Far away.

Standing on the red arena, Li Shuwen mobilized the energy in his body and began to punch under the moonlight.

As a person who has reached the pinnacle of the martial art of Bajiquan, his style can be said to be unmatched.

This was very clear to Kotomine Kirei, who was also practicing Bajiquan.

Watching the smooth movements on the ring, he felt that the activity in his body was also mobilized.

Maybe in another minute.

No.

Maybe just thirty seconds.

Kotomine Kirei felt that he would go up and practice boxing with him.

That's right.

Li Shuwen's boxing style has such terrible tension that even people like Kotomine Kirei can feel the charm of martial arts.

But at this moment——

Kotomine Kirei heard an unfamiliar voice.

“Very impressive boxing.”

"It's an amazing thing - even I can't help but want to learn it."

"..."

Although Kotomine Kirei was attracted by Li Shuwen's boxing, he did not completely ignore the outside world.

He looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man with a silver ponytail.

Next to this man, there was another man with bronze skin and a very strong physique.

"..."

Kotomine Kirei instinctively became alert—his long life in the church had made him sneer at the praise of others.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"Oh... Excuse me, I haven't introduced myself yet."

The silver-haired man bowed very politely, and then began to speak openly.

"I am Marisbilly Animusphia."

"If you think my name is too long, you can call me Maris Billy."

"As for my identity——"

The man who claimed to be Marisbury looked at Kotomine Kirei in front of him and smiled slightly.

"Kotomine Kirei, I am a participant in this Holy Grail War just like you."

"..."

Kotomine Kirei was stunned at first, and then he suddenly reacted.

The two people in front of me are another pair of Master and Servant in this Holy Grail War!

but--

How did he know his name?

Kotomine Kirei looked at Marisbury in front of him and subconsciously took a few steps back.

That was a sign of sensing danger—or perhaps it was a stress response after realizing that the other party was not simple.

Marisbury seemed to have seen through Kotomine Kirei's thoughts long ago, and quickly continued:

"Please don't be so nervous."

"I didn't learn your name by any dirty tricks - I just got the news."

"You are the Master."

Having said this, Marisbury's gaze shifted to Li Shuwen on the ring.

"That's your Servant Assassin, right?"

"..."

Now that things have come to this, Kotomine Kirei knows that there is no point in pretending any longer.

He directly acknowledged what Marisbury said.

"really."

"So what do you want?"

Kotomine Kirei showed his arm, which was covered with lines of Command Seals.

"If you want to do it here--"

"I think my Assassin won't just stand by and watch."

"Yes, you are right." Marisbilly nodded.

"so--"

"I appeared by your side just to solve this problem."

"Solve this problem?" Kotomine Kirei was a little puzzled. "What do you mean?"

"It's very simple."

Marisbury remained polite.

"Since this is the Holy Grail War—"

"Then we can use the Holy Grail War to solve the problem."

Marisbury moved a few steps to the side to make some space for the man behind him.

"I want my C.A.S.T.E.R. and your Assassin to have a round of competition in that ring. Is that okay with you?"

"..."

Kotomine Kirei actually didn't care about the other Servant's class - but at this moment, he found that he couldn't take his attention away from Caster no matter what.

Caster means magician.

This person is even weaker than Assassin in terms of physique.

Now he is going to the ring to fight Li Shuwen?

Just thinking about the scene of Caster being blasted into a bloody mess by his own Servant, Kotomine Kirei felt like he was going to be extremely high.

"Okay!" He agreed immediately.

"Then have a round!"

Ever since——

With the mutual consent of Kotomine Kirei and Marisbury, a battle began.

In the arena.

Looking at the enemy who stepped onto the stage, Li Shuwen asked a question.

"Who is coming?"

"Solomon." The man gave his name without any hesitation.

"I see."

Li Shuwen took off his coat, stretched out his legs, and assumed an attacking posture.

"Solomon."

"You should know that those who step onto the ring will not only be judged on their level, but also on life and death, right?"

"...I know." Solomon also put on a serious attitude.

“So I’m going to give it my all.”

"Very good." Li Shuwen agreed with Solomon's attitude. "This is the determination we should have when fighting."

"So--!"

"I'm going to start!"

After taking a deep breath, Li Shuwen launched an attack in the most ferocious way.

Although he looks like an old man, he is still very powerful.

Just looking at it like this gives people the illusion of a tiger hunting its prey.

But Solomon seemed to have great attainments in boxing as well.

When looking at Li Shuwen who was coming at him aggressively, he was not panicked, but instead showed some recognition.

Bang!

The two men on the ring pressed their hands together, creating a wave of air that spread in all directions.

This is a scene that is difficult to achieve even in a battle of weapons, but at this moment it was displayed by two hands.

"Very powerful moves." Solomon looked at Li Shuwen in front of him.

"If you were born earlier, I'm afraid Bajiquan would have to be changed to your name."

"You don't need to remind me of that kind of thing." Li Shuwen was so excited that he focused all his attention. "Try my trick!"
