The bright red Command Spell even completely covered his left arm!
On the ground, six additional magic circles appeared out of thin air. There were seven magic circles in total, and human figures appeared in each of them!
"Ah, for Jeanne-sama..."
There were some low and crazy voices. The person who appeared in the middle of the magic circle was a thin man wearing armor. However, the armor was not very good. Most of it was leather, and only a few parts were metal.
He had long hair and held a long sword in his hand, looking at Gilgamesh.
"To answer the call of the Holy Grail, to put the Holy Grail's prayer back on track, and to resurrect the great Joan of Arc!"
Looking at this man, Kotomine Kirei felt a sense of familiarity. He seemed to have seen this guy before, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.
"That's right. For Joan of Arc, for the great Joan of Arc, any sacrifice is acceptable! So, let us seize the Holy Grail!"
It was a very similar sound again, but more morbid.
He was a hunched-over fellow with bulging eyes, but one could vaguely make out the appearance of the knight from before.
These two guys should be the same person!
"Gilles de Rais!" Kotomine Kirei finally remembered who these two guys were!
It's the Caster that appeared during the Fourth Holy Grail War!
"I am indeed Gilles de Rais, Master. For Jeanne, let us fight!"
The two servants said in unison.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled with relief: "For Joan of Arc!"
"For a woman? But it doesn't matter. I just came here to complete the mission." The man in the cloak looked like an archer and a ranger.
"So, this time it's a direct mission from the Holy Grail? It's really strange. I didn't encounter such a thing last time..." The handsome man, holding two spears in his hands, was another familiar face.
Looking at this man, Kotomine Kirei once again showed an expression of surprise.
He remembered that this man was called Diarmuid Odinah, a spearman from the Fourth War. It seemed that he was summoned as a spearman this time as well.
As for the green ranger, he seems to be Robin Hood, an archer.
"Aho! My name is Astolfo! My class is Rider! And then... uh... please give me your guidance!"
The voice was full of energy, and the pink knight, who looked like a girl, was happily introducing herself.
As for the guy wearing a cloak and a mask, Kotomine Kirei was very familiar with him. He was the assassin he summoned during the Fourth War, Hassan the Hundred Faces.
As for the last person, she was a woman wearing a kimono with white horn-like things on her head.
She smiled slightly, making one wonder if there was something wrong with her class.
"Servant, Kiyohime, class Berserker... obeying the Holy Grail's summons!"
One person summoned seven servants in an instant, and each of them seemed to have a very important background. This made Kotomine Kirei unable to figure out what was going on for a while, but he still remembered that these people had mentioned some clues when they were talking just now.
"The Holy Grail summoning puts the Holy Grail War on the right track... What exactly happened to the Holy Grail?" asked Kotomine Kirei. He knew that the Holy Grail had its own consciousness, so what exactly caused the Holy Grail to behave like crazy now?
"Someone is hindering the official descent of the Holy Grail, and the ceremony has been delayed and cannot be completed. As long as we complete the task, we can realize our wish... Let's form a team of seven and eliminate the enemy!"
Kotomine Kirei smiled. This change once again exceeded his plan, but at least now it seemed that the advantage was on his side. He had seven servants, and all of them took him as their master. This was really great!
……
After Cu Chulainn was locked in the magic circle, he found that he couldn't even send out a signal. He couldn't rely on the connection of the Command Spell to communicate with Kotomine Kirei. At this moment, he was completely locked here.
After a brief moment of panic, Cu Chulainn calmed down again. Looking at the person who came out, he asked, "What is this?"
"It's a small summoning circle. Hmm, I modified it a bit. It's temporarily a sealing circle. Don't struggle. Not to mention you, even if you summon the devil from hell, he won't be able to resist this power."
Morpheus said, waving his hand: "Hey, we meet again, Mr. Lancer of Lucky E."
"Can you see my numbers clearly?!" Cu Chulainn asked in surprise.
"Maybe?" Morpheus spread his hands, then slowly came to Cu Chulainn's side. Of course, he did not enter the magic circle.
Cu Chulainn glanced at the archer, then looked at the group of servants over there. Each of them had powerful magic power, and none of them were simple guys!
And if you count the number, there are five, plus myself, then there are now a total of six servants gathered here for this Holy Grail War.
Fighting one against five, he didn't feel he had any hope of winning.
"Let's make a deal." Morpheus said, looking at Medea: "Lend me your dagger."
Medea had already prepared the Wan Ying Po Jie (Ten Thousand Talismans). When Morpheus said that, she immediately handed it over and even explained attentively how to use it.
Cu Chulainn, who was standing by, saw the two guys mumbling to each other and frowned, "What kind of deal do you want to make with me?"
"Wait a moment." Morpheus said, turned around and attacked suddenly. Before Cu Chulainn could react, he was stabbed by the strange dagger in Morpheus's hand!
"What are you doing?!" Cu Chulainn shouted, and just as he was about to draw his weapon, he felt a huge change in his body.
He felt that the connection between himself and Kotomine Kirei was broken, and the contract collapsed at this moment!
Chapter 88: A Trade
"You, this, I..." Cu Chulainn changed the beginning of his speech several times, but still didn't know what to say. He was frightened by the strange changes in his body!
I lost my Master again?!
"Okay, now that you've been fired, you're considered a free agent. The deal I'm proposing is simple. Do you want to choose someone here to be your Master?"
"I'm here to fight, not to play. Now you have gathered six servants, which means there are seven including me. How do you plan to deal with the Holy Grail War?" Cu Chulainn asked directly.
At the same time, he glanced at the dagger that Morpheus had returned to Medea.
"This dagger can actually directly break contracts. It's really terrifying. If Kotomine Kirei gets his hands on this thing, he might do something terrifying.
"But this archer is clearly the leader here. Does his Master allow him to act this way?"
While thinking about this, Cu Chulainn looked at Toosaka Rin not far away. He remembered that this girl was the other party's master, and now she was standing there with a look of watching the fun.
"Do you have a wish that the Holy Grail would grant?"
Cu Chulainn shook his head: "No."
"That's easy. I don't want you to leave this world right now. After all, if you leave, I'll be in trouble." Morpheus said, dismantling the magic circle he had set up, then walked up and stretched out his hand, casually hooking it on the other's shoulder.
"You are also a knight, a hero, and you like to help the weak, right?"
Cu Chulainn looked at the smile on Morpheus's face and always felt that the other party seemed to have some conspiracy.
However, now that he no longer needed to work for Kotomine Kirei, he felt much more relaxed, so he asked, "What exactly do you want to say?"
"It's simple. Do you see that little girl over there? She's from the Einzbern family and a participant in this Holy Grail War."
"I know about the Einzbern family. I considered going there to investigate, but the barrier was too troublesome, so I didn't go in." Cu Chulainn said, wondering, "So what does it have to do with her?"
"Of course it's related. She's so young, yet she's about to lose her life because of the Holy Grail War. Everyone in her family treats her as a tool. She's only been accompanied by a Berserker who has lost his mind and can't communicate. Don't you think that's pitiful?"
Cu Chulainn was silent. He didn't expect that the Holy Grail would have such a problem.
"Look, I'm too lazy to actually make a wish with the Holy Grail. If possible, I'd like to study the Holy Grail and help her solve this problem. However, if the Servant dies in the process, causing the magic power to flow back, your souls and magic power will be stuffed into the girl's body, causing her to slowly die.
"So, for the sake of this child, you absolutely cannot die now. Now you understand what I mean, right?"
Cu Chulainn continued to remain silent. It was not because he did not want to help others, but because he was trying to judge whether what the guy in front of him said was true or false.
"Look, if you're really willing to help, in the future, I mean in the future, if I can get a hold of Odin's runes, I'll find a way to give you a copy of his original form on the Throne of Heroes. How about that?"
Cu Chulainn chuckled when he heard this and said, "Your ability to paint a rosy picture needs improvement. A rosy picture that is too fake will not attract people."
"Who knows, what if I really gain such knowledge in the future?" said Morpheus.
Cu Chulainn shook his head and walked over, saying as he walked: "We'll talk about it when you have it later!"
After saying that, he looked at a few people and came in front of Emiya Shirou.
"Boy, come and sign the contract."
After saying this, he turned and glanced at Morpheus: "Since it was you who proposed the deal, then you should be able to resolve the Command Spell, right?"
Morpheus smiled slightly and looked at Medea: "I leave it to you!"
"No problem, I'm familiar with this."
Medea smiled and walked over.
Poor Shirou Emiya was treated as a temporary host and allowed to be manipulated by Medea just to get a few more Command Seals in his hands.
After feeling the connection between himself and the young man in front of him, Cu Chulainn said again: "I don't believe you yet, I am just observing the situation temporarily.
"If you want to do something bad, I will commit suicide."
Morpheus spread his hands: "It's up to you."
"But I must warn you, don't assume that just because I'm a spearman I don't understand magic."
"That's even better." Morpheus remained unconcerned. "Then you will soon be able to confirm that what I say is true and not false."
Then, Morpheus invited the other party: "We are having dinner, want to eat together?"
……
There was another person in the house. Cu Chulainn had to admit that he felt much more comfortable here than at Kotomine Kirei's place. At least the room was bright enough, and there was delicious food. The people and servants here were not so annoying, and they were not as contemptuous as that golden guy.
He even felt that staying here like this was a good choice and life would be very happy.
Moreover, listening to the archer named Morpheus introducing the people on the scene, Cu Chulainn once again felt how exaggerated the combat power here was.
The Knight King whom Gilgamesh could not forget, the legendary witch Medea, the monster Medusa from Greek legend, the great Greek hero Hercules, and the servant Sasaki Kojiro summoned by Medea, plus Morpheus, an archer who was not well-known but had incredible strength.
Now with myself added to the mix, even if Gilgamesh wanted to do something, he would probably be defeated instantly.
Thinking of this, Cu Chulainn couldn't help but feel happy.
After being under Kotomine Kirei's command for so long, two more of the most disgusting people in his life and death have been added to his list: Kotomine Kirei and Gilgamesh.
Seeing that Cuchulainn had almost finished eating, Morpheus asked, "By the way, can you tell me about your first Master?"
"The first master?" Toosaka Rin and the others were stunned and looked at Cu Chulainn.
"You really do know everything..." Cú Chulainn shook his head. "My first Master's life or death is unknown. It was Kotomine Kirei who attacked her from the shadows and harmed her."
"Kotomine Kirei?!"
This time, it was Tōsaka Rin and Emiya Shirou who exclaimed.
Neither of them had expected that this guy was involved in this matter.
Sakura Matou seemed very quiet, as if she had expected this. Morpheus was also quiet. As for Altria, her expression changed slightly and she began to think, as if she had remembered something.
As for Illya, she exclaimed in surprise: "Ah? That priest actually used his identity to cheat?!"
"Anyway, now that there is no contract, I feel uncomfortable with him, so let's talk about his affairs. After all, I saw you two being deceived by him." Cu Chulainn said, looking at Shirou Emiya and then at Rin Toosaka.
Especially when looking at Toosaka Rin, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, which eventually turned into decision.
"There's no point in hiding some things, so let's just speak out."
Chapter 89 The Truth
Ten years ago, during the Fourth Holy Grail War, among the participants in the Holy Grail War, there was a guy who many people did not expect. This guy appeared as an assistant to the Tosaka family, the masters of Fuyuki City.
In order to win, Tōsaka Tokiomi used his status as a landlord in a somewhat despicable way to gain more opportunities for himself.
As a member of the Holy Church and a priest, Kotomine Kirei, under the arrangement of his adoptive father, became the seventh person to participate in the Holy Grail War. Relying on the Command Seals stored in the Holy Church, he gained the ability to cheat.
There are many Command Spells, use them at will!
This guy hiding in the dark was naturally there to help Tōsaka Tokiomi win. That was how it should have been.
But things went beyond their normal course and Tōsaka Tokiomi died.
The guy who caused all this was naturally the one who was hiding.
Because Toosaka Rin suddenly heard the truth, she fell into a strange silence. She did not shout or say "This is impossible". On the contrary, her familiarity with Kotomine Kirei made her think that this possibility was true!
"So, it was that priest who killed Tohsaka Tokiomi?!" Emiya Shirou asked in surprise. When he thought of the disgusting priest last time and his relationship with Tohsaka Rin, Emiya Shirou was still unwilling to believe it.
"He himself has never denied it, and that annoying guy often uses this matter to mock Kotomine Kirei." Cu Chulainn said. He had seen Gilgamesh mock Kotomine Kirei many times, so he was naturally very clear about the communication between the two.
This also made him know a lot of things that he shouldn't have known.
"Gilgamesh..." Illya muttered to herself, a puzzled look in her eyes. "If he is also a Servant, then there will be eight Servants in this Holy Grail War."
