He came to Fuyuki City three years ago and was chosen by the abbot of Ryudo Temple to live there. He also worked as a teacher at the private Hogunhara Academy.

Because his "touching heart" was dead, he looked like a cold machine, but other than that, he was no different from the people around him. He didn't feel any pain, and the people around him thought it was a sign of strength.

He has no expectations or goals in life, and only regards "living" as a task to be completed before his body decays. He pursues nothing and gets nothing. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why he calls himself a "rotten murderer."

After returning home from get off work one day, he heard a noise in the forest near the temple, went to check, and found Caster dying, and then rescued her back to the temple. The moment he saw the witch, his heart, which had been beating regularly no matter what, seemed to stop for a moment.

After waking up, the woman told her about the Holy Grail War and asked him to be her Master. Kuzuki did not doubt the woman's words at all and agreed immediately. This surprised Caster, as the witch originally planned to control his mind the moment he refused.

Kuzuki didn't want the Holy Grail, but because he had promised to help the woman, he would do his best. As long as Caster didn't give up the Holy Grail, he wouldn't stop. As for why he gave up the ordinary life he had been striving for and chose to lend a helping hand to the woman, he didn't realize it at this time.

It could be because of repentance for the irrelevant killings in the past, or it could be because he feels needed again.

Caster wants to get the Holy Grail for Kuzuki, and Kuzuki wants to get the Holy Grail for Caster.

After the wedding night, Kuzuki became Caster's Master. However, because Caster didn't want Kuzuki to see her dirty side, and didn't want Kuzuki to be in danger, she almost never let Kuzuki participate in her plans.

Originally, the Holy Grail War should have proceeded step by step like this, but yesterday, the familiar that Caster sent out to observe the conditions of other Servants discovered a battle that was beyond mortals.

Caster's desire for victory turned into a fear of a worthless death. Even she herself was considering whether to give up the Holy Grail War and accompany her master Soichiro for the last time.

Because the heroic spirits that came into the world through the Holy Grail could not remain in the world for a long time, she only hoped to accomplish what she wanted to do in this last period of time.

Finally, she made up her mind and gave up her desire for the Holy Grail.

Like I said just now, what I fear is meaningless death.

If there is even a slight chance of winning, she will not give up. Just like Matou Zouken, who will not give up if there is even a slight chance of survival.

In the end it's not 99.99% but 100%.

Instead of dying meaninglessly, it is better to cherish everything you have now.

But she didn't know how to tell Kuzuki to give up the Holy Grail and go with her.

Chapter 69: There is no need to face an enemy you cannot defeat

However, before Ge Mu could take out the thing, Medea said those words.

A loud bang was heard from the mountain gate.

Medea's heart moved. She had a bad feeling.

"I'll go out and take a look at the situation." said Soichiro Kuzuki when he saw this.

"I'll go with you." Caster followed behind Kuzuki.

In fact, with Caster's personality, he should run away from here first, but if he really wants to run away...

Can you escape?

A man and a woman walked out of the door and saw a collapsed door.

And standing at the gate was the boy she least wanted to see.

A young man with red hair and a cold expression.

"Master of Assassin...what are you doing here?" Caster forced a smile.

"Emiya..." Kuzuki recognized the boy in front of him as the good guy in school, but he didn't expect that he would come to his door today. "What can I do for you?"

Both Caster and Kuzuki looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

One had seen the previous war... it was more like a game than a war. The other had a killer instinct that kept warning him that the kind-looking boy in front of him was actually a monster underneath his skin.

"Don't you know clearly what to do?" said Emiya.

"But I, don't know." Caster still answered with a stiff smile.

"You must know about the Holy Grail War." Emiya said, "After all, you are Caster."

When talking about this, Caster's bad feeling almost burst out of his heart, and he gritted his teeth, "You didn't say that the Holy Grail War was fake, and that the Holy Grail was contaminated?"

"But you won't believe what I say, right?" Emiya Shirou said, "It's like a person walking in the desert who falls down and sees a bottle in front of him. No matter if the bottle contains water, urine, or poison, he will drink it without hesitation."

"The Holy Grail is just like this to you. You, who long for salvation, will desperately grasp this life-saving straw.

"You are such a selfish woman, aren't you?"

Emiya Shirou taunted.

"No, no. That's not the case." Medea shouted, "I, I need the Holy Grail for Soichiro-sama."

"Have you really asked, Mr. Kuzuki, if you need the Holy Grail?" Shirou Emiya asked back.

"If Caster needs it, I will help him." Kuzuki got ready to attack, and his aura changed in an instant. The stern and serious teacher turned into a sinister venomous snake.

"Lord Soichiro." Caster looked at the not-so-handsome man next to her. At this moment, in her eyes, Soichiro was the most handsome man.

On the contrary, she couldn't let the Master fight with the other party.

There is no point in facing an unbeatable enemy.

"Since you call yourself a ally of justice, then why bother disturbing us? We are ready to withdraw from the Holy Grail War!" Caster shouted in self-abandonment, as if all the energy in his body was drained away, and his aura suddenly weakened.

“It’s because you’re a partner of justice that you need to do this.

"Those recent cases in Fuyuki City were all your doing, right?"

Emiya Shirou asked back.

"Don't you know what an unforgivable thing you have done?"

It turns out that Caster's master is not Soichiro Kuzuki, but the son of an oil tycoon in the Middle East.

The magician did not share her philosophy, and because Caster could not meet the Master's request to summon a dragon, she went from being humble at the beginning to being extremely mean to Caster.

He used purchased slave children to extract magic crystals using technology, and proudly showed the results to Caster, but Caster was not used to the former Master's use of children to extract magic crystals, saying that the efficiency of this magic workshop was too low, extracting a large amount of magic crystals of far superior quality from the workshop out of thin air from a large source (magic in the air).

The former Master deeply realized Caster's strength, and was jealous of such talent. After the conflict gradually escalated, he contacted Kotomine Kirei to contact another participant to kill Caster, but was eventually killed by Caster after he used up all the Command Seals.

If I had come this far, I would have considered myself as someone who had not done anything bad. After all, I couldn't bear to see a child being refined into a crystal of magic power. Killing the original master was a self-defense counterattack, not to mention that in the Holy Grail War, if you didn't kill someone, you would be killed.

The problem is that after meeting Soichiro Kuzuki, in order to increase his chances of winning in the Holy Grail War, Caster used the residents of Fuyuki City to enhance his magic power.

"You used those innocent residents to enhance your magic power. How many lives are on your hands?

“I won’t tell you about the Master you killed, and I won’t pursue the things you did in your previous myths.

“But you did kill people in this era.

"Don't say that the world of magicians is so cruel. You know very well that I am different from those magicians.

“Times have changed too. It’s not the era in the past when killing people was not against the law.

“Now, if you do something wrong, you will be punished.

"You killed an innocent person. Do I need to remind you of this?"

While saying this, Emiya Shirou was looking at Kuzuki Soichiro.

Caster didn't understand Emiya Shirou's thoughts, and thought he was complaining to Soichiro. After all, Soichiro was also this kid's teacher. Who knows...

But, so what.

"After all, I am such a dirty woman." Caster once again lost a lot of energy, "a sinister, cunning witch who will betray anyone without hesitation."

Once one hole is broken, it is easy to break more.

"How can I expect to be loved when I am like this?"

"Caster." Kuzuki tried to take something out of his arms, but was interrupted by Caster again.

"Shirou Emiya. I did this all by myself. It has nothing to do with my Master! He doesn't even know I did this! He is your teacher, let him go!" Caster shouted in self-destruction.

"I won't let him go."

"Why? He obviously doesn't know anything about this!"

"Kuzaki Soichiro is not a good person either. He was trained by an assassination organization since he was a child. He is a corrupt murderer."

Chapter 70: Kill the other person and you can survive.

"He was trained as a tool for assassination, and he performed his mission brilliantly.

"You know what I'm talking about, right?"

Emiya Shirou said.

"No, you can't do this." Caster shouted, "Where do you think you are, a messenger of justice? You didn't use all your strength to kill Soichiro-sama. Even if Soichiro-sama killed someone, it's not you who punishes him, it's the law."

“However, he is now participating in the Holy Grail War as your Master.

“Whether it’s a magician Master who participated in the Holy Grail War or an ordinary person who witnessed the Holy Grail War.

"According to the rules, they will all be killed."

Emiya Shirou said.

“But I have a proposal.

"A proposal to let one of you live.

"After I say this, you will understand what I mean, right?

"If one of you kills the other with your own hands, you will be able to survive."

"You...are you kidding me!" Caster, who had been drained of energy, suddenly exploded, with powerful magic power bursting out from his body.

Countless magic circles appeared in the air, and purple-red energy bullets rained down on Emiya Shirou.

Soichirō Kuzuki also seized this opportunity, weaving through the rain of bullets and rushing towards Emiya.

"How could I possibly do such a thing as killing Lord Soichiro...! How could I possibly do it!?" Caster, who had originally intended to surrender, was provoked into a rage by Emiya's words, and even the level of his magic power increased in an instant.

Caster, a magus from the pinnacle of the Age of Gods, who could even be called the magus closest to a wizard, exploded with all his magic power in anger.

He performed powerful magic without chanting or by chanting at such a high speed that ordinary people could not detect it.

I thought that even if it meant destroying both of us, I would drag the other party down with me.

The insidious and cunning witch of betrayal is actually a very emotional person, otherwise she would not have done such a foolish act of transforming the residents of Fuyuki City into magic power.

There are actually gaps among the dense energy bombs in the sky, which are the passages left for her master Kuzuki.

Shirou Emiya was moving around in such a passage. The energy bombs around him hit the ground and blew it into a big hole, but did not affect Shirou Emiya's clothes at all.

At this time, Kuzuki also arrived next to Shirou Emiya, and made a snake shape with his hand and rushed towards Shirou Emiya.

A steel glove with purple patterns appeared on Shirou Emiya's arm.

A demonic weapon from the Devil May Cry world, with the same name as the King of Heroes, Gilgamesh.

Shirou Emiya actually learned the art of assassination, not just combat skills.

If he attacked without thinking, it would be easy to kill the opponent without any care. And that was not what he wanted to do.

The reason I put on the boxing gloves at this time is just because I don’t want to kill someone accidentally.

But if we really talk about explosive power, this weapon is not inferior to any other treasure.

Shirou Emiya's fist hit Kuzuki's palm, and the force of the impact on the steel easily broke Kuzuki's snake momentum. Gilgamesh's special strength-control technique allowed Gilgamesh's gloves to directly break the protective magic and strengthening magic that Caster hastily cast on Kuzuki, breaking Kuzuki's palm.

It was very painful. But Ge Mu's expression did not change at all.

If you are afraid of pain, there is no way you can survive the training of that assassination organization.

Pain, just pain. No fear.

Not afraid of death.

There is no feeling when killing someone. No joy, anger, sadness, or guilt, no emotion at all.

Only after killing the purpose that is the meaning of life do you feel empty.

But if such a meaning was not attached, even killing would be just as easy as eating.

Be prepared to kill, and also be prepared to be killed.

So, don't be afraid.
