In the anime, Kira Yoshikage longs for a peaceful life

Kirara Yoshikage didn't even look at him and continued:

“I’m not a magician either.”

Kenneth's smile froze.

"I don't have a magic seal either."

Kira Yoshikage continued to narrate in a calm tone:

"Even the so-called contract has no meaning to me. After all..."

Snapped!

Kira Yoshikage pressed his thumb, and Kenneth suddenly felt a little flustered.

Because he could feel that the mysterious binding force of the contract he had just signed had disappeared.

No! It's not disappearing, it's as if it never existed!

As long as you can touch it, there's nothing that can't be solved by an explosion.

Kenneth's smile gradually disappeared, but Kira Yoshikage showed a kind smile.

Chapter 223: Really a dog licker, no house

"The contract is gone just like that?"

The smile on Kenneth's face completely disappeared, and cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

Lancer, who just disappeared, suddenly popped up in his mind. Since the other party could make Lancer disappear, would it be difficult for him to make himself disappear without the constraints of the contract?

In the magic world, magicians are usually given a "rank" corresponding to their strength, from high to low:

Grand, Brand, Pride, Fes, Cause, Count and Frame.

Even in the magic world where talented people abound and bloodline is everything, Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald is a genuine genius!

During his school years, he showed a talent that was enough to be called a child prodigy, and he continued to produce exceptionally outstanding results when he was less than ten years old. He reached the third level, the classic level, when he was a teenager, and his current level is the color level.

Although he is ranked second, magicians who can be rated as the Grand Master are extremely rare. The Color Master is generally considered the de facto highest rank, and most monarchs stop there.

But Kenneth is different. With his talent, he might really have a chance to reach the championship in the future!

In addition, he is the head of the Archibald family, a family of magicians that has continued for nine generations, the monarch of the El-Melloi School and the Mineral Department (Kishua), and ranks fourth among the twelve monarchs who control the Clock Tower of the Magic Association. He is an absolute superior monarch.

At the same time, he also served as a first-level lecturer in the Department of Spiritualism (Uliphis), the youngest person in the history of the subject to become a lecturer, and was engaged to Sora Nazelai Sofiali, the daughter of the Minister of Spiritualism.

Whether in terms of strength, talent, status, connections, power, or background, he has reached the pinnacle of the magic world!

He has always been very confident in his life, so he confidently participated in the Holy Grail War and even brought his fiancée with him. Although the reason for giving Sora to his fiancée was to transfer the function of supplying magic power to maintain the servants' present world to her, so that he would have more magic power to deal with other participants.

But the real reason was that Kenneth was so conceited from the beginning that he was sure that he could get the Holy Grail, so he wanted to share such achievements with his fiancée, and he even gave his fiancée the chance to make a wish!

As for the initial three major families?

Kenneth has never taken them seriously. Not to mention the Einzbern, which has always been fought by androids who are not proficient in magic, the head of the Tohsaka family of this generation, Tohsaka Tokiomi, is also mediocre in talent, and the Matou family does not even have a qualified magician.

Even if we take a step back, even the heads of the Matou family, Matou Zouken, and the Tousaka family, Tousaka Nagato, in their heyday were only at the third rank, the Nobunaga rank, and that was only the level that Kenneth had reached when he was a teenager.

He now has enough confidence to crush Zouken Matou and Nagato Tōsaka in their prime.

Even when facing the so-called servants, he is confident that he can compete with them.

This is the confidence that the color scale brings him!

In fact, it is true. If we only consider the magic level of the master, the other six masters combined cannot compare with Kenneth. The only one who can fight with him is Tohsaka Tokiomi, and this is under the premise that Tohsaka Tokiomi has the advantage of the spiritual veins in Fuyuki City.

But it was precisely because of Kenneth's arrogance that he always mistakenly believed that other masters would openly fight him using magic.

He had no idea that this war had been fought at all costs from the very beginning.

"So, you're going to kill me?"

Kenneth showed a bitter smile on his face. He looked down at his fiancée in his arms, and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

Maybe dying together with Sora wasn't so bad after all.

"No,"

Looking at Kenneth, who no longer had any expectations, Kira Yoshikage smiled kindly:

"I'm going to let you go."

Kenneth's eyes were filled with astonishment. "You are no longer bound by the contract, so why did you let me go?"

"I always keep my word."

Although Kira Yoshikage's explanation seemed perfunctory, Kenneth could not help but have doubts.

Because if the other party wanted to kill him, there would be no need to keep him until now, let alone deceive him.

"So, I can go now?"

Kirara Yoshikage nodded slightly:

"anytime."

Kenneth was a little confused. He held his seriously injured fiancée in his arms, retreated into the still running elevator in a daze, and took the elevator all the way down to the first floor with a nervous mood.

The hotel was empty; all guests and staff had been evacuated due to a natural gas explosion on the top floor.

Although Kenneth still didn't understand why Kira Yoshikage let him go, he felt inexplicably grateful.

At least Sora and he are both still alive, and they only lost some material things. Isn't this something to be thankful for?

Even though Sora lost an arm, there is no shortage of excellent puppeteers in the magic world who can create prosthetic limbs that are comparable to the real thing.

Although he had lost the two supreme magic items, the Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid and the Three-Base Magic Furnace, with his talent and genius, he could completely re-create magic items that could rival or even surpass the Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid.

As long as he is alive, he will still be one of the twelve monarchs of the Clock Tower and still be a color-level magician at the top of the magic world.

As long as you are alive, there is a future.

In the future, he will marry Sora and become the crown prince of the magic world. They both have a bright future!

"Sora, we'll get out of here safely, I promise you."

Kenneth kissed his fiancée's forehead and comforted Sora, who was frowning in pain. He had a smile on his face and his eyes flashed with anticipation for the future, until a bullet pierced Sora's temple and his heart at the same time.

boom!

Kenneth showed a look of surprise on his face as he looked at the man wearing a black windbreaker and holding a sniper rifle who appeared at the door of the hotel.

His body felt weak and he staggered back two steps, but his hands were still tightly holding his fiancée's body which was gradually turning cold.

The fiancée's head exploded the moment the bullet pierced through it, and her brain and blood were all over Kenneth's face.

He wanted to cry out in despair, but all he did was bleed profusely from his mouth.

Hisau Maiya, who witnessed everything in the shadows nearby, quietly pulled the trigger of the AUG rifle. The bodies of the Clock Tower's monarch and his fiancée were honeycombed by the metal storm of 5.56mm bullets, and they fell to the concrete floor with their bodies torn apart.

Until the moment before their death, they were still looking forward to the future.

"I didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain."

Emiya Kiritsugu removed his gaze from the scope and muttered, "Where's Lancer? Why isn't he with them?"

Lancer is at least one of the classes second only to Saber, so no matter what, she won't be killed by Assassin, right?

He just shot tentatively because he saw Lancer's Master holding a seriously injured woman.

The process was smoother than he had expected. Even without using the Origin Bullet, Kenneth and the other man had already fallen in a pool of blood, completely dead. It was so smooth that Kiritsugu even wondered if he had been caught in an illusion without realizing it.

-----------------

Ding dong~!

The elevator reaches the first floor.

Kira Yoshikage walked out of the elevator holding the purple-haired girl's hand, and saw Kenneth lying in a pool of blood with his eyes open.

There was also a short-haired woman standing next to the corpse, alertly pointing her gun at them.

“Wait, Maiya, they are not enemies!”

Emiya Kiritsugu, who came from a distance, immediately scolded.

Hisau Maiya silently lowered the muzzle of the gun, but still maintained a posture ready to raise the muzzle and pull the trigger at any time.

Kirara Yoshikage ignored them, walked up to Kenneth and his wife, and said:

"What a shame."

As a magician, Kenneth was too naive.

Tian Nai is devoted to his fiancée, even though he has vaguely realized that his fiancée has long been attracted by the charm of Lancer's tear mole.

This kind of feeling can be called "pure love" for humans, even "pure love" to the point of almost being a dog-licker.

But almost all orthodox magicians are cold-blooded and heartless people, and they are basically evil people in the eyes of ordinary people.

Kenneth's emotions are definitely a fatal weakness among magicians.

Otherwise, he would not be threatened by Kira Yoshikage, forced to hand over the Moon Spirit Fluid, and forced to sacrifice his Servant.

He is one of the 12 Lords who rule the Clock Tower, and there are hundreds of magicians willing to obey his orders. But he insists on going into the dragon's den alone, naively believing that he has the power to crush everyone.

But.

Even a dead person would do.

The dead are sometimes more useful than the living.

"Leave the body to me and help me transport it to the Einzbern castle."

Kira Yoshikage did not explain, his tone was calm as if he was instructing a servant to clean up.

Hisau Maiya silently raised the muzzle of the gun an inch, and Asagami Fujino also stared at her intently, the colorful colors in her eyes were extremely lively.

If she really intended to shoot, Asagami Tono was confident that she could twist her into a bloody mess before she did. And even if she did shoot, it didn't matter, because she would have enough time to twist the bullet into scrap metal before it hit them.

"it is good."

Emiya Kiritsugu's answer was straightforward.

Although the price of the magic seal that has been passed down in the Archibald family for nine generations is very high, since the magic seal itself is passed down in the same bloodline, it takes hundreds of years to brew something like a [new organ].

Such organs are difficult to match with non-blood relatives, and there is almost no room for interference from others. The reason why the ancient magician family can have such power is largely due to the existence of magic engravings.

Therefore, only the bloodline of the Archibald family can inherit Kenneth's magic mark. If other people forcibly transplant it, they will most likely die in great pain due to the strong rejection reaction.

Therefore, even if Emiya Kiritsugu took the body, the most he could do was to find a way to contact the Archibald family and sell the body for a good price.

In that case, it would be better to do a favor.

Watching the two people go away, Hisahi Ueya frowned slightly:

"Kiritsugu, don't you think they're going too far?"

“It’s okay, Maiya.”

Emiya Kiritsugu shook his head indifferently, "We still need their assistance for the time being. Now is not the time for a conflict."

Lancer didn't show up, probably because he had been dealt with.

Assassin is not enough to deal with Lancer, so it can only be Kira Yoshikage -

He has always lacked understanding of Kira Yoshikage. He only knew that he was Irisviel's fiancé, that he had a daughter with Irisviel, and that he was an extremely fickle person. He would take any beautiful woman into his pocket, whether they were human or android.

But he had no idea what rank of magus Kira Yoshikage was, or what kind of magus he specialized in. But since Kira Yoshikage was able to deal with Lancer, whether by his own strength or with the help of external objects, it was enough to make Emiya Kiritsugu re-evaluate his threat level!

And the girl beside him...

Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes were filled with fear.

Kira Yoshikage is like a calm ocean. Although it looks calm, no one knows what kind of dangers are hidden in the depths of this ocean.

And that girl was like a volcano that could erupt at any time; the danger was almost written on her face.

Those eyes are definitely devil eyes, and they are devil eyes of an extremely high level!

If he hadn't stopped Hisahi Maiya in time, she would probably have become a corpse now!

No matter what, I must never appear under those eyes again.
