Zongman, the history of a devil's rise

of course.

Kiritsugu Emiya chose this place with the intention of restricting Vitan.

"go in!"

Lancelot stepped forward, reached out and grasped the door handle, then walked in one step ahead of Vitan.

"Obviously there's no need for that."

Vitan laughed and shook his head slightly.

Lancelot's behavior was obviously just to tread on the minefield for him.

He is a Servant after all, so being hit head-on by magic shouldn't be a big deal.

However, with Emiya Kiritsugu's level of magic.

It will never have any effect on Vitan.

The only origin bullet he could rely on had no effect on him.

Forget it, so be it.

Follow Lancelot in.

What caught my eye was a man with an indifferent expression, looking extremely cold, wearing a black windbreaker and holding a half-burned cigarette in his mouth.

Standing next to this man was a woman wearing a women's suit.

A woman with a style similar to that of a man and a decent appearance.

However, if we talk about the focus of attention, it must be the woman standing behind Emiya Kiritsugu, who is also wearing a women's suit, but is slightly shorter in stature and has long golden hair.

——Saber, the Knight King, Altria!

"Emiya Kiritsugu?"

"Master of Barserkar."

One is a question that is more like an interrogative statement, and the other is a direct affirmative sentence.

Kiritsugu Emiya did not stand up. He just reached out to take the cigarette butt from his mouth, flicked it in the ashtray, and then made an invitation gesture to Vitan.

"Whatever you want to talk about, just sit down."

"You really don't know what I want to say? I think you must have guessed it, so you agreed to the date."

Vitan took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms naturally with the same action.

He pulled out a cigarette, lit it with a lighter, and started puffing away like Emiya Kiritsugu.

Of course, this is where the area was cleared.

Otherwise, the way they were doing, the boss would ask them to leave in no more than two minutes.

"You've chosen a good place. Is this one of the Einzbern's properties?"

Vitan, who had just sat down, immediately looked around.

Lancelot also stood obediently beside Vitan, as quiet as a loyal large dog, without any of the wildness that a Barserkar should have.

It's just that Altria seemed to notice some kind of gaze watching her.

It reminded her of the extremely unpleasant memories that had just occurred.

"I guess so. I just bought it."

Emiya Kiritsugu also pretended to be cool in a nonchalant manner.

No matter what, he had no way of predicting whether a fight would break out or not, so he would try not to cause trouble for others.

Especially this time, the Einzberns are there to provide a backup.

"It seems pointless to continue dwelling on this meaningless topic."

"Since you agreed to come, that should mean you have preliminarily agreed to my proposal."

Completely strangle the cigarette butt in your hand.

He picked up the cup of coffee that Emiya Kiritsugu had already brewed and placed in front of him and took a sip.

"Yes, alliances are indeed an indispensable part of the Holy Grail War."

"It is indeed not easy to win this war alone."

Emiya Kiritsugu nodded affirmatively.

Then he took out a cigarette, like a heavy smoker, lit it up and smoked it.

To be honest, the intensity of this Holy Grail War was slightly beyond his expectations.

At the beginning, he really thought that since he had summoned the famous King of Great Britain, the legendary Knight King, he should have an absolute advantage in terms of heroic spirits.

At least he should be able to achieve a scene where he can easily defeat other Heroic Spirits with his Master, the King of Knights.

The results of the first stop exceeded his expectations.

In the battle with Lancer, the Knight King on his side was careless and his left wrist was scratched, leaving an irreparable wound.

Now, not only is the strength not as strong as before, but even the strongest anti-city weapon has been completely blocked.

Saber's strength can be said to be only 80% of her usual strength at most.

If we are facing just a group of useless heroes, such strength would be nothing.

But look at who the opponents are in this Holy Grail War.

The famous conqueror, the legendary Alexander the Great, the King of Macedonia, Iskandar.

Diarmuid Odinar, the unrivaled chief warrior of the Irish Fianna Order, is known as the 'Glorious Face'.

The identities of the two heroes that have now been fully revealed are no less powerful than the Knight King, the trump card in his hand.

Moreover, there is Archer who possesses an extremely powerful Noble Phantasm.

And there is Barserkar in front of him whose background is completely unknown.

If Saber faced a Heroic Spirit of this level in this incomplete state, the only outcome would be more losses than wins.

"But how to ensure security among the alliances?"

"Honestly, I can't believe you."

"Similarly, there is no way you can trust me."

Having said this, Emiya Kiritsugu reached into his chest and took out a piece of parchment that looked quite worn.

Then, with a gentle toss, the paper fell directly into Vitan's hands.

"Self-enforced certificate?"

It should be said that there was no surprise at all. When Vitan unfolded the paper, he had already anticipated what was written in it.

After all, this kind of thing is a common tactic used by this guy Emiya Kiritsugu.

In the original book, he used this trick to directly kill Director Ken.

In the world of magicians, a spell-bound contract is used to make an agreement that cannot be broken.

This contract is extremely binding on both parties, and no one has ever been able to break this contract.

"That's it. From the moment the agreement is signed, neither you nor I, the Master or the Heroic Spirit, can harm each other."

"This agreement will also automatically end when only you and I are left in the Holy Grail War."

There is no problem from the perspective of the contract.

Even Vitan had to admit that this contract was indeed quite fair and one could not find any faults in it.

but……

To believe that this guy Emiya Kiritsugu would honestly abide by the contract, he must have been kicked in the head by a donkey.

On the contract, the name symbolizing Emiya Kiritsugu has lit up.

However, in the original work, Emiya Kiritsugu also signed his name for Kenneth, but here, he didn't even know what Vitan was called, so the position for Vitan's row was still blank.

(You like to play tricks and word games, Emiya Kiritsugu.)

Holding the self-compulsory certificate in one hand and supporting his left cheek with the other, Vitan raised his eyelids and glanced at Emiya Kiritsugu.

(However, such boring tricks can only be used on ordinary people.)

(Emiya Kiritsugu!)

I sneered in my heart.

A faint blue magic power surged from the fingertips and was directly engraved on the paper scroll.

The red light flickered.

Then Vitan also threw the parchment back into Kiritsugu Emiya's hands.

Emiya Kiritsugu opened it and took a look.

"In this case, the contract is concluded."

"Vitan Asmodeus."

Chapter 4 Ownership of K Option

"Then leave Lancer to us. We will deal with him first."

After putting away this self-enforced certificate, the atmosphere of this space suddenly changed a lot.

"Are you going to solve the problem with Saber's left hand?!"

Vitan sighed and cast his gaze on Altria's left hand wrapped in a black glove.

Altria frowned and clenched her left hand into a fist.

Artoria was not opposed to the alliance.

It is true that she follows the spirit of chivalry, but she is not pedantic on the battlefield.

However, she still had some reservations about the alliance with Vitan.

After all, just now on the battlefield, Vitan's seemingly overwhelming gazes made her a little uncomfortable.

“It’s not just a left-hand problem.”

"This is an agreement between Lancer and I. I hope you won't interfere in this matter."

Altria took a step forward, came in front of Emiya Kiritsugu, and spoke to Vitan in a heroic manner.

However, I don't know why.

After Altria said this, Kiritsugu Emiya's face seemed to turn much colder.

This was not the indifference that Emiya Kiritsugu usually displayed, but rather a kind of coldness that came from within his heart.

(Heh, it seems that Emiya Kiritsugu is now very dissatisfied with the chivalry of Miss Knight King.)

Raising his eyebrows, Vitan no longer wanted to watch the next drama and stood up.

"In that case, Lancer will be left to His Excellency the Knight King. We will look for other combinations of servants and masters to deal with it."

"see you later."

……

Where can Vitan go if he leaves here?

Needless to say, of course I should go back and fulfill my promise.

When I got home, Sakura had already packed up and was still wearing the same purple dress. She was sitting upright on the sofa like a doll.

Today's weather is relatively good and sunny, but because it is winter, it still feels a bit dry and cold.

Pedestrians on the road were still wearing thick cotton jackets and wrapping themselves tightly.

But even though the weather is so cold, on this day which is not a holiday, everyone is still walking hurriedly back and forth on the streets, busy with their studies and careers.

However, there is indeed one person who seems out of place here.

Or should we say it is a combination of a person and a child.
