Comics: Starting from Killer Queen

But despite his surprise, Lancelot did not stop his galloping charge. When his weapon melted, he had already opened his arms, grabbed Roland's wrist, and started the most primitive, yet most direct wrestling with the opponent.

Is it impossible to fight without weapons? Are weapons such inconvenient things?

Seeing his wrist being restrained by Lancelot, Roland exclaimed in admiration. This was such a smooth movement that an outsider would think that Lancelot was planning to use close combat from the beginning.

In terms of combat wisdom, the Holy Lord's wisdom, who couldn't even use his own spells, obviously couldn't bring much help to Roland. Facing Lancelot's superb martial arts, he was bound to suffer some losses.

However, in the face of true power, everything is just illusion.

"If you had released your Noble Phantasm, you might have been able to unleash even more amazing power. But unfortunately, you no longer have the magic power to do that. Besides, you don't understand that the form of fire is just a toy for me to play with."

Roland smiled, using his hands to resist Lancelot's strength, while looking at Lancelot, whose vulnerable chest and abdomen were exposed to him due to the wrestling action.

"Do you think that if you grab my hand, I won't be able to use fire?"

In Roland's pupils, a blazing and surging flame was burning and compressing. The scarlet and scorching light beam slowly condensed, turned into substance, and pierced into Lancelot's chest!

"There's no need for weapons or anything like that. A true hero kills his enemies with his eyes!"

The violent heat vision shattered Lancelot's armor, tearing through his flesh and blood effortlessly, piercing through his bones, and exposing his most vulnerable internal organs.

On the verge of death, Lancelot clenched the strength in his hands again. He was a mad beast, not a lamb to be slaughtered. Even if he died, he would bite off a piece of flesh from the enemy!

But Roland's cold voice stopped him again.

"Killer Queen, come out!"

A cat-ear substitute with countless cracks and scarlet pupils like Roland appeared out of thin air, and his palm turned into a knife. With just one strike, it pierced Lancelot's back!

This caused the berserker to lose strength instantly, allowing Roland to break free. He reached out and pierced the other party's spirit core, using the burning magic power to forcibly establish a contract between master and servant.

"Beast, obey your new master!"

Under the constraints of the new contract, Lancelot fell into silence again, and his broken wounds began to slowly heal.

"Next, you must use your madness to refine Saber into a weapon that suits my taste."

"Arthur..."

Hearing Saber's name, Lancelot seemed to have found his backbone. He knelt on one knee and lowered his head like a knight loyal to his monarch.

Roland looked at Lancelot with satisfaction, then turned his head to look at Matou Kariya who was standing behind Caster with a look of disbelief.

Seeing the berserker who was much more obedient than himself in Roland's hands, and Sakura who happily ran into Roland's arms, a bitter smile appeared on Matou Kariya's face.

He just watched Roland walk up to him. When he was actually facing death, his madness dissipated and he calmed down.

"Have you thought it through?"

Roland asked calmly.

"Since you are such a strong monster, it seems that I was indeed worrying too much about Sakura's future. Please take away my pathetic life."

Roland frowned. "Who asked you this? Your life is worthless to me, especially when you lose your status as a Master. The reason I kept you until now is entirely because of your identity as Matou."

"Are you asking me about the fall of the Matou family? What a shame, I only found out about it today, so I can't help you with anything."

Matou Kariya suddenly realized, but finally shook his head helplessly.

"The only information I can tell you is that Matou Zouken might not be dead. Many of the bugs in my body came from him. If their master died, they would have rioted."

"Really? Apart from that, has there been no other unusual occurrences from yesterday till now?"

The demise of the Matou family is not without reason. This family has been completely integrated into Fuyuki City and is of no value to outsiders. Since it was not done by the other seven masters, the murderer must have a connection with the Matou family. It may be very shallow, but there must be no connection at all.

"Any other situation?" Matou Kariya hesitated and thought for a while, "No, after sending Rin back yesterday, who had run outside, I went to the port to participate in the battle..."

"Wait," Roland was stunned, with a strange expression.

"You said, Toosaka Rin came to Fuyuki City?"

Chapter 61: Traces of the Talisman

The name Toosaka Rin once again touched Roland's heart. The little girl who had once met him should have moved to the Zencheng family, although her personality was not very peaceful.

But the murderer Ryunosuke Uryu is long gone, and thanks to the efforts of Toosaka Tokiomi, Fuyuki City has generally maintained its superficial calm, at least without affecting people's daily lives. Toosaka Rin no longer has any reason to act.

A series of clues formed a complete puzzle in Roland's mind: the eighth servant, the fall of the Matou family, and the seven peaceful masters.

Suddenly, the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Do Enkidu and Gilgamesh have chain summons?"

If it really was the Venus goddess, Ishtar, it would be natural for her to descend to the body of Tōsaka Rin and manifest herself.

"What bad luck... I always feel like the restraining force is secretly targeting me."

Roland sighed. This Holy Grail War was already very unusual, and it took him some effort to control the situation. He didn't expect that an off-field factor would arise.

"I'll have to spend some time to deal with it next, but luckily it's Toosaka Rin. Ishtar's personality will become very easy to communicate with this child."

"Master?"

Seeing Roland lost in thought, Medea spoke softly and poked Matou Kariya, who was kneeling on the ground, with her staff.

"What should we do with this guy?"

“Hmm…” Roland stroked Sakura’s soft hair and looked at Matou Kariya.

The opponent's vitality is already very weak. If he fights in a high-intensity manner, he will probably die in the next few days. Even if he is left alone, he will not live for more than a month.

"Matou Kariya, I want to hear your thoughts?"

"My thoughts? Do I have any other choice besides death?"

Matou Kariya raised his head with difficulty and vomited out a pool of black insect corpses again. The black shadow ninja would not show mercy to his enemies. In order to repair his body, his vitality weakened a little.

"Being self-aware is an excellent quality. It seems that you have grown after the previous incident."

Roland smiled and squatted down to look at Matou Kariya.

“Death is your destined ending, but the way you die has a different meaning for your life.”

"what do you mean?"

"I have a friend," Roland paused, "who needs a transformation right now. But just like a carefully arranged meal brings more pleasure than just the taste, I think an unexpected betrayal is far less exciting than seeing hope bring not redemption but a sharp blade when facing despair."

Roland smiled indifferently: "I want to know if you have given up that false dream and developed a true murderous intention?"

"Are you saying, kill Tōsaka Tokiomi?"

When mentioning this name, Matou Kariya's voice trembled again, but unlike the previous painful moment, this time, it was because of the fanaticism and excitement that went straight from the nerves to the brain.

"Yes, do you want to abandon those excuses and live freely for once so that you can rest assured when you go to the grave?"

"Of course I am willing!" The sweet temptation given by Roland made Matou Kariya roar like a wild beast, "But I know that my body is already broken. Without the help of my Servant, there is absolutely no way I can defeat that guy!"

"Of course I know this, but I am a kind-hearted person, so I'll just consider this as a reward for your kindness in saving Sakura in the first place."

Roland stretched out a hand, and the remaining flames around him gathered in the shape of a vortex as if they were summoned. Then, he stretched out his hand and clenched it, and the burning flames disappeared.

When Roland opened his palms again, there was only a wisp of dark purple, flame-like gas floating quietly.

"Although it is only the remnant of the anger left during the battle, it is enough for you. After all, it is only to give you the last bit of strength."

Roland flicked his fingertips, and the wisp of gas pierced into the center of Matou Kariya's eyebrows.

The burning magic power and huge vitality immediately made Matou Kariya howl in pain. He fell to the ground with all fours, and thick black smoke came out of his mouth with every breath.

Although he had lost most of his flesh, the insects that made up his body began to stir restlessly, as if they were also infected by the fire. Charred debris kept falling from his body, but more insects successfully adapted to this transformation while swimming continuously. Rough scales grew on their dark and smooth skin, and the part that made up their palms turned into sharp claws.

If Matou Kariya was just a weird and weak magician at the beginning, then now he is undoubtedly a monster.

"My total amount of magic power, and my body..."

"It's a world of difference from before, isn't it? How interesting, I found out that creating a follower is like this."

Roland's voice was also somewhat interested. "Although it was just a ray of anger, perhaps because your life was in danger, your transformation was much more successful than I thought."

"If you can successfully harness this power and release it, it will turn into a blazing storm."

Upon hearing this news, Matou Kariya swallowed unconsciously.

"What if I can't steer?"

Faced with this obvious question, Roland just smiled and repeated it.

"You will become a fiery storm."

"Oh, I'm so stupid... So, can I leave now?"

Matou Kariya smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Please help yourself. I am looking forward to how you will burn."

"I'll keep it in mind, Lord Roland."

Retracting his scaly claws into his clothes, Matou Kirei left behind a desolate back and left without looking back, without even saying goodbye to Matou Sakura.

"I'm sure Gilgamesh will be pleased with this now. Kirei has also been dealt with."

Roland murmured, and suddenly felt someone pulling his trouser leg.

Looking down, I saw Sakura Matou lowering her head timidly, with an expression as if she had done something wrong.

“I’m sorry, because of Uncle Yanye, I have caused trouble for Master Roland…”

"No, you did a great job, Sakura. Rather, you did me a favor."

Roland smiled warmly and obtained the Berserker. The progress of the Archer team was also smooth, and he also obtained information about the eighth servant. Although it might be luck, Sakura Matou helped him.

"But..." Matou Sakura stammered, "Lord Roland was busy making that tool the whole morning, but he had to stop because of me..."

"That thing has been made," Roland took out the prop in order to comfort Sakura Matou and prevent her from falling into self-blame.

This is a square search instrument with a single handle that looks simple and noble, with an exquisite dragon head carved in each direction.

"There's only one last step left, activating it."

Although it would be better to use his own flesh and blood to make it, since his soul is the soul of the Holy Lord and his body is also Roland's body, he is not possessed. By slightly replacing the concepts, the process of making this prop is much easier than Roland imagined.

"Master? What is this thing used for? From the appearance, it looks a bit like a tracking-type gift."

"Yes, that's right. This thing is essentially used to track the divine powers that once belonged to me. Because they are sealed, my perception will be much weaker."

Roland began to inject magic power into the spell searcher.

"Well, however, in this world, judging from the description of the spirit itself, it is impossible under normal circumstances..."

Roland's voice suddenly stopped halfway through his speech.

On the four-sided talisman search device, the eyes of the dragon head statues in three directions lit up with deep red light.

One pointed to the city, one pointed to Yuanzang Mountain, and the other pointed directly in front of Roland. The red light in the eyes of the dragon head statue in this direction seemed to be overflowing, dyeing the surroundings red.

——This can only mean one thing, there is at least one talisman nearby.

Chapter 62: Toosaka Rin's Great Adventure

Back to last night, Toosaka Rin looked at the dark clouds that densely covered the sky. The pitch-black color piled up and blocked the already scarce moonlight. The neon colors brought by the artificial light sources everywhere in the city not only failed to fill this gap, but instead made it look more like a demon city.

Is Fuyuki City so scary at night?

The cold night wind blew across her face, causing Toosaka Rin to shiver subconsciously and pull her red coat tighter around her.

But obviously, the other person in her thought the exact opposite of what she did.

"Ah, this is really amazing. It is indeed a modern city. Don't just stand there. Move quickly and find the largest wealth exchange site in this city. As long as I show a little bit of my power, those mortals will definitely rush to offer me sacrifices!"

"How could I, who is only in elementary school, know about this kind of place? Besides, aren't you a goddess? You are too vulgar!"

Although she was afraid of the city late at night, Toosaka Rin still showed a dignified temperament when facing the out-of-line goddess.

Last night, while she was sleeping, Toosaka Rin vaguely heard such a sound.

"I am the goddess Ishtar. The goddess of beauty who rules over Venus. You should respect me, fear me, and worship me."

Originally she thought it was just an illusion, but when she woke up in the morning and saw her changed body and the strange weapon floating beside her, Toosaka Rin realized that she seemed to be involved in the Holy Grail War. She didn't know why she was possessed by the legendary goddess, Ishtar.

Why did it turn out like this... The first time I participated in the Holy Grail War, the first time I had a Servant I could rely on, two happy things overlapped. And these two joys brought me more joy. What I got should have been a happy time like a dream... But why did it turn out like this...

It was all thanks to Ishtar that the elementary school student Toosaka Rin could make such a mature exclamation.
