Rider, who was trying to catch Waver hiding behind Lynn, was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed:

"Lin En, do you like playing games too? Come back with us later and play fighting games together! We also bought two controllers!"

"It's too loud! This is a library!"

Weber said angrily:

"Besides, I have no interest in such a cheap and vulgar game!"

"You're being too loud!"

Lynn raised his hand and suppressed the increasingly irritable Weber.

"Besides, games are an important part of this country's culture. If you want to understand this country, you'd better try to help!"

"Yeah! I think so too!"

Rider rescued the Master from Lynn's clutches and patted Waver's shoulder proudly.

"You definitely just want to play by yourself!"

Weber muttered.

“Wouldn’t it be great if you could learn something while having fun?”

Rider looked nonchalant and reached out to pick up the book in Waver's hand.

"Alexander the Great... Hey, isn't this my biography?"

Weber felt his face suddenly turn red. Even when his thesis was ridiculed by lecturer Kenneth, his face had never been as red as it was now.

"You are really strange. Why do you have to rely on such a record whose authenticity is hard to verify? I am right in front of you. Can't you just ask me directly if you want to ask me?"

"Long-winded!"

Waver held back his tears, snatched the book from Rider's hand, and stuffed it into the bookshelf.

"Well! Young people always need some time to think alone."

Lin En smiled and said to Weber:

"If you are interested in this, you can work as a librarian for a while after returning to the Clock Tower. In addition to the basic salary, you can go to the second floor - the secret library - for one hour every month."

"As for now, let's just enjoy this rare peaceful time!"

After saying that, Lin En left. He just came to take a look after sensing Weber's scent. After all, Weber's alcohol tolerance was too poor, so he had no intention of staying for long.

“You have a great teacher!”

Rider also understood the purpose of Lin's visit, so he did not appear in front of the two of them immediately.

Only Weber was confused, wondering if he had missed something when he slept last night!

After leaving the library, Lin En continued to wander the streets. Due to the sudden heavy snow, many shops were closed directly, and ordinary people were unwilling to go out in such a cold weather. Therefore, there were even fewer shops open.

Finally, Lynn found a shop that was perfect for this cold weather.

A mapo tofu restaurant.

As soon as the door opened, a warm breeze blew in. Although Lin En didn't hate the cold, she preferred the feeling of warmth.

There were only two people in the store, the store owner and a customer. The store owner was busy behind the counter. When he saw Lin En come in, he didn't say hello, but just stretched out his hand to motion Lin En to sit in front of the counter.

Lynn sat down at the counter, ordered an extra spicy Mapo Tofu, and then looked at Kotomine Kirei who was silent beside him.

"Do you feel relieved? After losing Assassin."

Kotomine Kirei seemed to have suddenly come back to life, and his whole person was more lively.

"Why do you think so!"

"From what I know, you have always believed that you were chosen as the Master to help Tōsaka Tokiomi obtain the Holy Grail, and that you yourself have no desire for the Holy Grail."

"Now that Assassin is dead, your mission is over! Why don't you leave this place that is about to become a battlefield?"

Kotomine Kirei stared at the table, seemingly contemplating something. After a long moment, he said:

"I want to know what the outcome of this Holy Grail War will be!"

"I see. You don't think Tōsaka Tokiomi will be able to win in the end?"

Kotomine Kirei remained silent again, showing no sign of objection.

Lin En smiled and said:

"This is really interesting. Your father has so much confidence in Tohsaka Tokiomi that he even sent his own son to serve under him. But as Tohsaka Tokiomi's disciple, you have no confidence in your teacher?"

The End of Ideals: Chapter 57: Sea Devil

"Father is just fulfilling his mission!"

Kotomine Kirei was not fooled.

"Is this mission given to him by the Holy Church, or is it mixed with his personal selfishness?"

Lin En looked at Kotomine Kirei's expression which did not change at all and said with interest.

"Is your father really a genuine 'saint' as you imagine?"

Kotomine Kirei said nothing.

"You're so alert!"

Lin En sighed, realizing that the other party treated him as an enemy and would not disclose any information to him.

Coincidentally, the boss’s Mapo Tofu was already ready.

In Lin En's opinion, the Mapo Tofu in this restaurant is not very authentic. Among the eight characters of spicy, hot, fragrant, crispy, tender, fresh and lively, only the three characters of spicy, hot and spicy are achieved; the rest are not very up to standard.

But as a food to warm the stomach in winter, it is still pretty good. At least it is not sweet like the mapo tofu in some places.

After finishing the first bowl, Lin En felt that he was not full, so he ordered another bowl. Turning around, he saw that Kotomine Kirei was already eating his second bowl.

In such a short time, I ate a bowl of spicy, numbing and hot Mapo Tofu. For ordinary people, it is a torture, and some people may even faint from the spiciness.

Even Kotomine Kirei, the former executor, had his lips trembling, sweat on his forehead, and even his hands were shaking.

But he still ate it bite by bite, his eyes focused, as if he was praying devoutly.

"Speaking of which, why did you leave the Agent's team? For someone like you, it's the perfect place of exile. Isn't it?"

Kotomine Kirei didn't say anything. He ate the mapo tofu in the bowl bite by bite until the last drop of soup entered his mouth.

"I wasn't going to quit, but my wife, Claudia Aldessia, became seriously ill. So I left the front lines and started studying healing magic. But before that, she passed away."

Claudia Aldessia, Kotomine Kirei's wife, Kallen's mother, and the woman who had the greatest influence on Kotomine Kirei. She meant the same thing to Kotomine Kirei as Irisviel and Emiya Kiritsugu did. Her death made Kotomine Kirei begin to realize his true nature.

"Then why don't you go back? Go back to the battlefield you are familiar with. You are not the kind of priest who is willing to stay in one place to enlighten others! In comparison, you prefer jobs like eliminating heretics!"

Kotomine Kirei remained silent.

Lin En chuckled, patted his shoulder and said:

"There is more than one way to be satisfied. If you are willing, I can recommend you to work at the [Burial Agency]. Although your ability is a little insufficient, as long as you train more, you can still become a substitute."

After saying this, Lin En turned around and was about to leave the store.

Suddenly, Lynn felt a strange chill coming over him, as if something indescribable had forced its way into the material world.

The earth veins were wailing as countless magical powers were drawn out, forcibly opening the barrier of the material world.

"come yet?"

Lin En was not surprised. He looked in the direction of the river. An ominous aura that only magicians could see was accumulating there.

Lin En turned his head and looked at Kotomine Kirei who also stood up, and said:

"Organize the masses to seek refuge. Come up with your own reasons. Is the cross still on you?"

Kotomine Kirei reached into his arms, and a silver-white cross emitting a faint glow appeared in his palm.

"That's good. There should be some sporadic monsters appearing in the city. Go and deal with them. Remember to be quick. I don't want to burn the whole city to ashes!"

After giving instructions to Kotomine Kirei, Lin En flew directly into the direction of the river.

At the same time, the other masters also sensed this breath. Caster barely concealed it, and the powerful fluctuations of magic power seemed to tell everyone: I am here.

"Now let us raise the banner of salvation again! Gather the abandoned people, gather the oppressed people. Let me lead you! Let me rule you! The resentment in the hearts of us who have been bullied will surely reach the ears of heaven! Oh, Lord in heaven! I will praise you in the form of punishment!"

The blasphemous prayers reached the sky, dark clouds blocked the moonlight, and countless filthy flesh and blood appeared out of thin air, centered on Caster standing on the river. They absorbed the flesh and blood of the monsters and began to expand disorderly.

"We will drag that arrogant 'God', that cold 'God' off the throne! Now we will trample on the lambs favored by God; humiliate and tear apart those humans who look like God! Let the laughter of us traitors, along with the sighs and cries of the Son of God, knock on the gate of heaven."

The next moment, Caster untied the restraints on the monsters, and the monsters in the sewers began to riot, rushing out of the sewers smelling the smell of blood and flesh. Then they were purified by the piled-up snow.

Since he had guessed this possibility, Lin En was of course prepared. The snow on the road had been piled up on top of the manhole cover by sanitation workers. Before the snow was contaminated, no monster could appear on the ground.

But this is only a temporary solution, which can delay the time for an hour at most. Before that, they must eliminate Caster and go to support Fuyuki City.

The roar of an engine came from afar; Irisviel arrived here with Saber on a motorcycle.

"What's the situation now!"

Although she felt a little dizzy, Saber immediately asked Lynn about the situation at the scene.

"Just as you saw!"

Lin pointed in the direction of the river. The volume of the filthy flesh has expanded into a huge sphere. Even the blue whale or giant squid that dominates the deep sea may not have such a huge body. This aquatic giant beast is the nightmare that dominates the sea of ​​the other world, a veritable "sea demon".

"It's not the complete form of the other party yet. There is a larger body outside the material world. You have to know that Caster only opened the 'door' to the outside world and has no means of controlling it.

Even if the 'door' is closed, the sea devil can still grow by feeding on flesh and blood.

Not only that, the monsters in the sewers can all be considered part of the sea monster. When the most critical moment comes, the sea monster can completely recall all the monsters remotely."

"That is to say, we must confine it to the river and never let it enter the city."

In fact, if it weren't for the snow that would cause the magic circle to fail, Caster originally wanted to summon the sea monster directly in the city.

The End of the Ideal: Chapter 58: Tactical Meeting

As the two were talking, they heard a familiar rumble of thunder. Turning their heads, they saw a gleaming chariot landing right in the park square where the three were. The giant holding the reins gave an arrogant smile to the first guest.

"Oh, Knight King, Lynn. It's a wonderful night tonight. I wanted to say that, but now doesn't seem to be the time to exchange greetings."

"Are you here too? King of Conquerors!"

"With such a big commotion here, how could I pretend I didn't see it? It's just a pity that I just bought the game. I don't know if I can find it when I go back later!"

Rider said with some regret.

It seems that he sensed Caster's presence on the way back, dropped his things, and hurried over. Lin En thought, so he comforted him:

"If we can defeat Caster before the monsters break through the blockade, your game will be saved. If not, I'll give you my share!"

Rider laughed when he heard this:

"That's really great. I'll go visit your home when the time comes!"

Saber standing by had no idea what they were saying.

"Game? What are you talking about?"

"That is an important medium that represents the civilization of this country, but it has nothing to do with the present."

"Let's not talk about that for now, King of Conquerors, did you meet any other Heroic Spirits on your way here?"

Rider nodded and said:

"I met Lancer on the way here. He was on his way here."

"I've already arrived!"

A knight holding two guns appeared in front of them, and Lancer stepped onto the battlefield.

Lin En nodded and said:

"Saber, Lancer, Rider. Assassin has been destroyed, and Caster is on the other side. Archer has not appeared yet. As for Berserker, he should be next to Archer."

"Very good, then let's discuss the battle plan first!"

The three heroes all looked at Lin En. After all, Lin En was the only one among them who had fought against Caster head-on.

Lin En did not hide it and expressed his guess.

"First of all, this shouldn't be the entire body of the sea monster. The 'door' leading to the outside world is constantly being stretched open. More bodies are still outside the world. We must find a way to close that door."

"There are two ways to close the door. One is to interfere with the space within the area and destroy the stability of the door. However, we don't have the ability to do this, so we can only use the other method."
