Comprehensive comics, started making fate delta, group friends played crazy long night sauce

　"Danger."

　Kazuma Sato signaled to Shido Itsuka to be careful. Both of them were ready to activate their Mystic Codes and Noble Phantasms at any time, but neither of them launched an attack.

　Since the name 【Kirei Kotomine】 was not displayed, according to the updated rules, it means that the two sides have not entered the battle phase.

　Kazuma Sato stepped forward and recalled the words that the veteran had given them during the first closed beta test.

　He planned to use that safe word whenever something seemed amiss.

　Hearing the noise, Kirei Kotomine, standing below the statue of the Virgin Mary, calmly turned his head. Upon seeing who it was, a slight smile appeared on his lips before he returned to his calm demeanor.

　"Are you the chosen messengers that the Lord spoke of?"

　"Then I'll tell you a story."

　Kazuma Sato and Shido Itsuka exchanged glances.

　It seems this is the new storyline that Emiya Shirou was referring to.

　I don't know what this plot will be about, but it must be very important information.

　In short, listen to it first, you can't go wrong.

　"At the end of the 18th century, a group of Westerners set foot on this land."

　[Kirei Kotomine] That deep voice came through.

　"One of them is Justisaris Lech Einzbern, and the other is Machirizogan. They are both people who walk the path of the unordinary, that is, magicians."

　"We made contact with the local magic family, the Tohsaka family, and together we began a plan that would ultimately lead to the [Root]."

　"..."

　Kazuma Sato listened attentively, but didn't actually think too much about it, because he didn't understand the specific meaning of many of the words; he was just memorizing them.

　To be honest, of all those things he said, he only had a vague recollection of the "Tohsaka family".

　This is because it's a resource point marked on the map; I've never heard of the other two names before.

　"The most crucial element of this operation is... the Holy Grail."

　Kirei Kotomine turned around and paced back and forth above the church:

　"The Einzberns, skilled in alchemy, provided the Greater Grail system, which is the foundation of everything."

　"Maquili, who was skilled at creating familiars, devised the Servant system in the Holy Grail War and invented Command Seals to bind the summoned Heroic Spirits."

　"The Tohsaka family provided the land and spiritual veins for this war ritual."

　Kenneth: "The countryside is indeed the countryside; as the supervisor, he actually embezzled from his own post."

　Kenneth: "Hmph, all he knows are crooked tricks."

　Tokiomi Tohsaka: "..."

　"Now, the Fifth Holy Grail War has already begun. The strange phenomena in the city and the various Servants are all concrete manifestations of this war."

　[Kirei Kotomine] turned to look at the statue of the Virgin Mary:

　"The Lord will give people two chances: to quietly repent on this bench, and they will return to the Lord's embrace."

　"But on the third day, the unrepentant believers will lose their connection with the Lord."

　Kazuma Sato immediately snapped to attention and quickly sent those two sentences to the group chat:

　[Sato Kazuma: "Brothers, let's discuss what this means."]

　[Sato Kazuma: "Sent it to the group chat, feels like important information!"]

　[Itsuka Shido: "Confessing on the pews, does that mean we leave while sitting on church benches?"]

　[Itsuka Shido: "What do you mean by giving two chances? It doesn't mean you can only evacuate twice. Does that mean someone can enter multiple times? No, that doesn't make sense either."]

　[Emiya Shirou: "Perhaps it refers to, two days?"]

　[Sato Kazuma: "You mean the regular evacuation point will be open for two days? That's impossible. The rules say that regular evacuation will close after the first day."]

　[Emiya Shirou: "I don't know about that."]

　[Sato Kazuma: "OK, let's continue with the story."]

　Kazuma Sato suddenly remembered. The blond, picky man he saw at the door in the last second before the last evacuation.

　His intuition told him that it would be related to that guy.

　Hmm... I'm not entirely sure, let me listen again.

　[Kirei Kotomine] continued speaking, his gaze shifting to the baby statue:

　"But if the second day is missed, even though the Lord is disappointed in the believers, He will still leave a way to atone for their sins."

　"One way is to slay the true [ultimate evil], correct its ways, and naturally return to the Lord's embrace."

　"However, an unformed [Ultimate Evil] is not acceptable, so you must help it take shape; otherwise, it cannot be considered purification."

　Kazuma Sato memorized these words that he couldn't understand for the time being. What he paid most attention to was not the words themselves, but the expression and tone of Kirei Kotomine when he spoke.

　It's different from the genuine human-machine interaction I felt when I first met the other person.

　He is clearly alive now; even when explaining "game information" in his own words, his eyes are lively.

　So is there a possibility?

　The information he provided may be true, but it may not be entirely true.

　Is he trying to trick this group of...outsider magicians into helping him achieve some kind of goal?

　Kazuma Sato recalled the red name above his head before and couldn't help but think of this possibility.

　The game announcement only stated that information could be obtained from NPCs.

　But there has never been a claim that an NPC would provide them with completely accurate quest information.

　How credible are the words of Kirei Kotomine in front of us?

　"Besides the methods mentioned above, there is another one: in addition to the Greater Grail system that the Einstein family initially provided, they also send out Lesser Grails in every Holy Grail War."

　“Now, the Einzbern family has long since gone out of control, becoming a blasphemer of the gods’ creation and violating forbidden territory.”

　"Capturing their ultimate achievement, the Lesser Grail, can also atone for one's sins against the Lord, cleanse oneself, and reach the gates of heaven."

　[Kirei Kotomine] lowered his head and made the sign of the cross on his chest.

　A joyful smile briefly appeared on his face, but vanished in an instant, as if he had never smiled at all, only silently and devoutly praying, as solemn as a marble sculpture.

　"Amen—"

Chapter 0045 Kazuma Sato: How many numbing pills do you have?

　Fuyuki City.

　In the castle in the suburbs.

　Ilya looked at the man named [Kirei Kotomine] in the live stream and felt a strong sense of malice; every word he said was pointed at.

　Ultimately, it's clearly directed at herself!

　"Sera, what did he mean?"

　Lizzie asked the maid beside her, Sera.

　"How can this be?!"

　Sera pondered, her already fair complexion gradually turning deathly pale.

　"Does that mean... those of us who have been abandoned are destined for destruction?"

　Is there really no point in continuing the lineage of androids?

　Even God considers us blasphemous beings?

　Liselle raised her weapon and said:

　"No matter who it is, I will not tolerate anyone who tries to harm Ilya."

　Sera's fingertips trembled:

　"That's not how it is, Lizzie, you don't understand at all."

　Even if such a being harbors no ill will towards us, but merely has a slight inclination towards us, we would be powerless to resist.

　"Sierra."

　Ilya propped her chin on her hand, while fiddling with her pure white hair in the other. Her blood-red, gem-like eyes held no panic, only calm.

　"Don't overthink it; this fake priest's words are completely unreliable."

　"If what he's referring to is... the players' evacuation method, which requires eliminating [me], then this information must be wrong, or not fully explained."

　"He must have covered up the truth, falsely claiming to be the Lord's will in order to achieve his own twisted purpose."

　"Whether it's the [Master] or the entity behind this game, what they actually want to see is not... bloodshed and struggle."

　The worry on Sera's face had not yet faded.

　"But the question is, do these...players really think that much?"

　"..."

　Ilya couldn't explain it either, so she closed her eyes.

　Silence fell over the ancient castle.

　-

　[Side quests have been discovered!]

　[Posted by: [Yanfeng Qili]]

　【Quest Name: 【Sacrifice the Heart to Ascend (Crimson Quest)】】

　[Type: Evacuation Mission]

　[Note: Accepting this quest will cause some NPCs to reach maximum aversion and actively attack the player. Please accept the quest with caution.]

　[Note: Completing this task will permanently disable one of the player's items.]

　Inside Fuyuki Church.

　"Oh?"

　Kazuma Sato almost jumped up in excitement when he saw the exclamation mark above Kirei Kotomine's head.

　This game is terrifyingly hardcore. To be honest, I don't even know where to find the quests, let alone where to do them.

　If it weren't for his inspiration to clean up during the first test, they probably wouldn't have been able to get the [Mitsuzuri Ayako] mini-task even after the closed beta ended.

　Now that we have a clear task, how can we possibly upset him?!

　at this time.

　Emiya Shirou strode in with heavy steps, his eyes filled with hostility towards Kirei Kotomine.

　Kirei Kotomine watched as Shirou Emiya walked in.

　Suddenly, it was as if something had been triggered.

　"Hmph hmph hmph,"

　He tried his best to suppress it, his pupils dilated, and he couldn't help but let out a joyful laugh.

　"Emiya...Shirou?!"

　"You actually received the Lord's call too? This is really... hahaha!"

　[Kirei Kotomine] laughed so hard his shoulders trembled.

　What joy this is!

　"Humph."

　Shirou Emiya had already experienced the exact same scenario, so although he was hostile, he was still able to maintain a certain level of composure.

　"Tell me the truth about what happened ten years ago, and how to prevent the disaster."

　Faced with Emiya Shirou's rudeness in not even calling him by name.
