Their commission was suspicious.
Page 665
But no matter what, this mission cannot be accepted, and Kenneth really can't give Chen Luo or Morgan what either of them wants, which is also Chen Luo's intention.
Chen Luo couldn't possibly kill Emiya Kiritsugu just because of 300 Primogems.
Chen Luo will take on many tasks here, such as errand running, food delivery, catering, travel, bodyguarding, weapon repair, item enhancement, self-improvement, saving the world, and so on, but not hiring someone to commit murder.
For Chen Luo to kill someone, two conditions must be met: first, the price offered must be high enough; second, the person must deserve to die.
If you say you want to kill the old bug, I'll take care of it for you in no time, but if you say you want to kill Emiya Kiritsugu, that won't work.
This is a matter of principle.
Just like Chen Luo often said, he would do anything for the Primal Stone, but when he was completing Othinus's five-star quest, he still went to great lengths to stop the other party from destroying the world.
As for the extra reward Kenneth gave, which mentioned the method for creating Moon Spirit Essence Liquid...
Why would Chen Luo need this?
Why not just copy it directly using the Void Treasury?
Manufacturing it is so troublesome.
"Why? Isn't King Arthur your enemy? Although she is your sister, isn't she the villain who took Britain from you?" Kenneth was somewhat confused.
"Whether the Red Dragon is my enemy or not is none of your business to judge, and I don't need you to explain my relationship with her. Taking down Kiritsugu Emiya is not difficult, but I can't think of any reason to help you," Morgan said coldly.
"Furthermore, I advise you to leave Fuyuki, the epicenter of the Holy Grail War, as soon as possible, or seek refuge directly at the Church of Christ. Otherwise, the other Masters may not know that you have lost your Master status. Or even if you have lost your Master status, as a former Master, you may still form contracts with other Servants. You are in great danger now," Morgan pointed out.
“But I don’t understand why you can’t kill Kiritsugu Emiya, when he’s just an ant to you…” Kenneth didn’t understand, Kenneth really didn’t understand.
“Because King Arthur’s true Master is Kiritsugu Emiya, I still need him.” Morgan stated this directly.
"Damn it, I knew I shouldn't have made the deal with you. If Lancer were still here..." Kenneth was still somewhat indignant.
Although Kenneth wasn't very optimistic about Diarmuid's combat strength, he was confident that as long as Diarmuid and King Arthur were entangled, Kenneth could wipe out the entire Masters of King Arthur by himself.
This includes the opponent's true Master, Kiritsugu Emiya, and the opponent's fake Master, Irisviel.
"I never thought there were such naive people in the world. Do you really think that just because you have a Servant, you can defeat Emiya Kiritsugu?" Chen Luo couldn't help but say.
"Although we don't mind if you hold a grudge against us, in order to avoid attracting unwarranted hostility, we'll let you see a glimpse of the possible future."
Chen Luo pondered that one of the twelve monarchs of this clock tower might be of some use in the future.
There's absolutely no problem getting rid of them now, but once they're gone, they'll inevitably cause some trouble.
Well, although Chen Luo didn't care, he also didn't want to take the blame.
Also, Chen Luo didn't want Kenneth to cause any trouble after returning to the Clock Tower, causing all those magicians to rush to Fuyuki City, aiming for some Holy Grail.
Chen Luo still has a mission to complete, so we can't let him mess things up.
That's a commission worth several thousand rough stones, so it's not impossible to persuade Kenneth with some effort.
As Chen Luo snapped his fingers, the world underwent a dramatic transformation in Kenneth's eyes.
"Where...where am I?" Kenneth rubbed his forehead, somewhat confused.
"Master, according to the original plan, I will take charge of drawing out Saber, and you will be responsible for dealing with her Master." Lancer, who was standing next to Kenneth, suddenly spoke up to Kenneth.
"Yes, go ahead. If it's a Master battle, I don't think I'll lose to anyone." Kenneth shook his head and stood at the edge of the barrier in the distance from Einzbern Castle, looking at the castle as he spoke.
"Yes, my lord." Diarmuid pressed his chest and abdomen together, holding a long spear and a short spear, and charged directly into the surveillance barrier.
"Fervor, mei sanguis" (Boiling, my blood!)
After seeing the other person leave, Kenneth poured the mercury from the test tube in his hand onto the ground.
Under the control of magic, the mercury, now extremely sharp, easily breached the main gate of Eindzbern Castle in just a few moments. Kenneth then slowly strolled inside.
Behind Kenneth was a giant sphere of mercury, half his height, that was slowly flowing.
"Kenneth El-Melloi, the ninth head of the Archibald family, has come to visit the magician from the Eindsbern family."
"For the Holy Grail we both seek, let us wager our lives and honor in a fair fight!" Kenneth shouted to the empty castle.
The castle was lavishly decorated, but completely deserted.
Kenneth didn't continue speaking, but slowly walked forward.
After Kenneth had taken only two steps forward, it was as if he had stepped on a thin line. Instantly, the statues on both sides shattered, and two machine guns appeared, firing wildly at Kenneth who had stepped on the trap.
As the smoke cleared and the bullets ran out, a mercury sphere about two meters in diameter, which had been slightly undulating, slowly stopped undulating and became smooth as a mirror again.
All the bullets were blocked by the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid.
With the Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid, Kenneth transformed from a defensive stance back into a large ball of mercury, revealing himself to be completely unharmed.
"Relying on mechanisms? Has the Einzbern family fallen to such a low level?" Kenneth sneered.
What follows will not be a duel, but a campaign of conquest.
……
With a gunshot, Kenneth triumphantly gathered the Moon Spirit Essence into a highly defensive sea urchin shape and channeled all his magic power into it.
In this way, even if the opponent's bullets can penetrate the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid, hitting oneself will be no different from tickling.
Magicians are such elegant beings.
"puff!"
The Origin Bullet easily passed through Kenneth's body, and when it entered Kenneth's body, which was filled with magic power and had all its magic circuits activated, it instantly severed all of Kenneth's magic circuits.
And at the same time, the magic circuits in Kenneth's body were reconnected.
But just like if a bone is fractured and not set, but is allowed to continue to develop, the bone will become misaligned. After Kenneth was hit by the Origin Bullet, his magic circuits were completely severed, but were completely reconnected in an instant.
The connected magic circuits were in disarray, directly triggering a magical upheaval within Kenneth's Court.
Without mobilizing all of one's magic power, one might be killed by a bullet that breaks through the defenses; but if one mobilizes magic power, thereby triggering the magic power in the magic circuit, one will be killed by the Origin Bullet.
Kenneth was completely under the control of Emiya Kiritsugu.
Feeling the excruciating pain deeply ingrained throughout his body, Kenneth awoke in terror from the hallucination.
"So? Do you have a general idea of this Holy Grail War now?" Chen Luo asked Kenneth, who had just woken up from the illusion, as he sat on the sofa.
"What...is this?" Kenneth's face still showed a trace of fear.
For Kenneth, death was not a terrible thing, after all, every magician dies while pursuing the source.
But destroying all of Kenneth's magic circuits and turning him into a cripple, confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life, would be far more terrifying than killing Kenneth.
For a magician who is proud of his family's honor and his magic circuits, this is truly an unimaginable ordeal.
In the original storyline, Kenneth, after being hit by the Origin Bullet, lost all of his magic circuits and could no longer use magic.
Later, the Archibald family spent a large sum of money to obtain prosthetic hands for Kenneth, who was already quadriplegic, from a puppeteer living in Japan. However, Kenneth still had to move around in a wheelchair.
This made matters worse for the Archibald family, who were already heavily indebted due to borrowing many magic cores.
"This is the result of you and Emiya Kiritsugu, Saber's Master, continuing to fight without our interference."
"Oh, right, do you want to see the rest of your story? Like, how your fiancée Sora steals your Command Seals after you're completely paralyzed..."
"Enough!" Kenneth suddenly shouted.
Stealing the Command Seals? Or his own fiancée? Kenneth didn't even want to think about what would happen next.
After all, Diarmuid stole his lord's fiancée in history.
Even though it was forced by the other party's fiancée, wouldn't it be exactly the same as history if his own fiancée Sora had Command Seals?
Kenneth never doubted the reality of the illusion. Perhaps it was because within that illusion, Kenneth had truly given his all. Or perhaps Chen Luo had subtly hinted at it using his ability as a Lawbringer of Knowledge.
In any case, Kenneth gave up on continuing to wander around this troublesome place.
Kenneth is gone.
I don't want to stay in this wretched place anymore, or participate in this wretched Holy Grail War.
They came here to gain experience and prestige, but now they haven't achieved anything and have to leave in disgrace.
However, it's not a big problem. As long as Kenneth shows the Fairy Book he obtained from Morgan, he can openly declare that he exchanged the already invaluable right to participate in the Holy Grail War for the lost knowledge of fairies through a transaction of interests.
For a magician, nothing is off-limits.
This way, not only will the Archibald family not be disgraced, but some people will even admire and envy Kenneth's opportunity and decisiveness, after all, that is lost fairy knowledge.
Although Kenneth was burdened with huge debts.
But given Kenneth's genius, as long as he's alive, he'll be able to pay it back sooner or later, especially since he's also gained the lost knowledge of fairies.
In short... collapse, retreat, and flee.
It's worth mentioning, however, that Kenneth ultimately gave Morgan the method for making Moon Spirit Essence Liquid as a token of his gratitude, and Morgan then gave it to Chen Luo.
As for Chen Luo? He fed it directly to Little Euthinus.
An hour later, everyone was shocked to receive the news that Kenneth El-Melloi, the head of the Archibald family, had entered the Church of St. John seeking refuge.
He then demonstrated that neither he nor his fiancée had Command Seals.
Immediately after announcing this, Kenneth did not enter the church. Instead, after confirming that all the familiars had received the message, he booked the earliest available flight and left.
Kenneth no longer wanted to stay in this wretched place.
This greatly shocked Weber, who was at home racking his brains about how to defeat his teacher or survive in his hands.
Oh no, wait a minute! My dear homeroom teacher, why did you leave like that?
What about the honors you call a magician?
What about your practical teaching methods?
Then... perhaps Kenneth knew that this news would soon reach the Clock Tower, so in order not to bring shame upon himself and his family, half an hour after Kenneth boarded the plane and before the news spread, the Archibald family spread the word that Kenneth had given up the Holy Grail War because he had made a deal with a Master and gained a great deal of benefit.
However, since the contract can only be revealed after the Holy Grail War ends, it remains unclear what benefits were actually gained.
This did salvage some of Kenneth's reputation, but until the extent of the benefit was revealed, no one could completely deny whether Kenneth's actions were right or wrong. After all, no one knew the full extent of his gain.
"Open the door! Delivery! Mr. Iskandar, the Conqueror, please come and receive your package." A knock sounded from downstairs.
"Hmm? What did you buy this time?" Weber turned to Iskandar and asked after hearing the voice.
"Oh, my clothes should have arrived. The mail service is pretty fast these days. I'll go downstairs to get them now."
"Stop, stop, stop! Don't go down there. I'll get it for you. Don't leave the second floor," Weber quickly stopped him.
But when Weber opened the door and saw the deliveryman in front of him, he instinctively slammed the door shut.
But as the door slammed shut, the deliveryman blocked it and then placed a hand on Weber's shoulder.
“If you’re going to sign for a package, you can’t just take it away; you have to sign it first,” Chen Luo said, putting his arm around Weber’s shoulder in a friendly manner.
"!!!"
Chapter 661 Conqueror King: Summon your puppets, puppeteer!
Participating in the Holy Grail War, I went downstairs to pick up a package for my Servant, only to find that the delivery person was another Servant, and that Servant was currently hugging my neck. What should I do?
Waiting online, very anxious.
But before Weber could fully panic, he felt a moment of dizziness, and then, after an unknown amount of time, Chen Luo slowly released Weber.
"Alright, I really am here to deliver a package. Please sign for it. I'm not here to fight this time, otherwise I wouldn't have brought a child." Chen Luo said, pointing to Xiaoying beside him.
While Waver was in a daze, the three Command Seals on his hand disappeared without him noticing, and then reappeared without him noticing.
In just three seconds, three silver command seals and three gold command seals appeared on Chen Luo's bandaged arm.
Weber's theoretical knowledge was quite strong, but his practical combat skills were quite poor. The power of the Herrscher of Knowledge was something his opponents couldn't resist at all.
"Bang!" The stairs creaked under the strain.
A huge figure came down the stairs and looked directly at Chen Luo, who was standing in front of Weber.
For some reason, Iskandar suddenly felt his connection with Weber break down, but it was restored after only a moment.
The time between the two was so short that Iskandar felt it was just an illusion, but because he was still worried, he still got down for a moment, and then he saw Chen Luo standing in front of Weber.
“Boy, take a look at your Command Seals,” Iskandar said to Waver.
"Huh?" Weber paused for a moment, then raised his right hand and showed Iskandar the back of his hand.
