Assassin was speechless. When you are on a hanging tower, disaster may come from the sky.
He was originally assigned by his Master to monitor the movements of other Servants and his Master.
Because the stupid Lancer didn't sleep at home in broad daylight, but wandered around the streets, obviously fishing.
Assassin used his clever brain to think that as long as he followed Lancer who wanted to go fishing, he would meet other Servants and Masters sooner or later.
Now he succeeded!
Lancer, who had a hole in his brain, started to mock the group and summoned Saber, who also had a hole in her brain. When the two servants met, it was like dry firewood meeting fire, and they immediately started fighting.
As they fought, Assassin carefully observed and recorded the abilities of Lancer and Saber.
Who knew that they didn't fight to a draw, but ended the battle because of an inexplicable servant, which was considered a temporary truce.
This servant in armor calls himself Caster, but where is there a Caster wearing armor?
According to his thinking, this must be a Berserker who called himself Caster just to fool people.
Whoever believes it is a fool.
After the inexplicable Caster, the famous Rider also came. As soon as he appeared, he revealed his identity and said that he was the King of Conquerors who wanted to fight to the end of the world.
Well, the identification is over. He is just an idiot and easy to deal with.
When the idiot Conqueror King wanted other servants to join him, Caster inexplicably revealed that he had mastered the "All-Seeing Eye". Just one look at you and you will have no secrets.
Assassin certainly knew about this powerful ability, but he did not think that a Servant with such ability would participate in the Holy Grail War.
But after Shiraishi revealed the secret of the servants present, he had to believe it even if he didn't want to.
Moreover, now that his fake death had been discovered, he was also given the title of the most difficult to kill...
Assassin felt wronged and wanted to cry.
How can he be immortal?
Their combat power is not strong, only their assassination ability is amazing, but when facing other servants, it is definitely them, Assassin, who will die.
Don't even think about a head-on battle, Assassins are all about assassination.
Let them assassinate the Master, they are guaranteed to succeed, but forget about the Servants, it is absolutely impossible for them to succeed.
"Master, I'm exposed now. Should we retreat or continue monitoring?"
Assassin was discovered, and he had thoughts of retreating, but he would not retreat on his own without receiving orders from his Master, so he contacted Kotomine Kirei and let the Master make the decision.
Kotomine Kirei is a man without emotions.
He has no emotions and doesn't know what sadness is. In simple terms, he is an emotionally deficient person.
It's a mental illness.
It's not so easy to cure.
Kotomine Kirei has been living a repressed life. He is pretending to be a human being as much as possible, rather than an emotionless machine.
In the past, as an agent of the Holy Church, his hands were stained with blood, but he never felt anything wrong. He was a natural executioner...
Later, in order to help Tōsaka Tokiomi win the Holy Grail War, Kotomine Kirei, on the recommendation of his old father Iwamine Risei, took the initiative to become Tōsaka Tokiomi's apprentice.
The two are not much different in age, one became a teacher and the other became a student.
Thus they formed an alliance and stood together in the Holy Grail War.
Kotomine Kirei has no desires and doesn't know why the Holy Grail chose him.
Logically speaking, the Masters who are able to participate in the Holy Grail War are those who have some kind of desire deep in their hearts.
Tōsaka Tokiomi wants the Holy Grail to open the door to the origin.
Kiritsugu Emiya wants to achieve world peace through the Holy Grail.
Director Ken wanted to prove his bravery.
Weber wanted to vent his anger and grow a few centimeters taller at the same time. He didn't want to continue being a dwarf.
These Masters who participated in the Holy Grail War all had wishes they wanted to fulfill.
But Kotomine Kirei didn't.
He is as hollow as a doll, which can run forever as long as it is wound up.
Kotomine Kirei, who didn't know what he wanted, followed Tōsaka Tokiomi's orders after the Holy Grail War began and acted according to his instructions.
He let Assassin break into the Tohsaka family's magic workshop to create the appearance of a fallout, and by the way, he used the disappearance of an Assassin to prove that his alliance with the Tohsaka family had broken down.
Without Assassin, Kotomine Kirei was of no use and could only do work like investigating intelligence. So he hid in the Cathedral Church and enjoyed the care of his old father.
The Holy Church, a powerful force that is comparable to the Magic Association.
During the Holy Grail War, he was responsible for serving as the supervisor and ensuring the fairness of the Holy Grail War, but this generation of supervisors obviously did not fulfill his duties and actually joined forces with Tōsaka Tokiomi.
Of course, superficial fairness must still be maintained.
However, whether the other Servants and Masters will believe it, only they themselves know.
This is the cruel reality you have to face after credit bankruptcy.
The Cathedral Church provides shelter to Masters who have lost their Servants. As long as they are in the Cathedral Church, their safety can be guaranteed.
Kotomine Kirei later went to the Cathedral Church to seek asylum, which indeed made other parties believe that he had lost his Servant Assassin, but now... Assassin was exposed by Shiraishi and was exposed to everyone's sight.
Everyone knows that Assassin is not dead, which means they were all deceived by Kotomine Kirei.
As for what role the Cathedral Church played in this regard?
No one knew, but it seemed that the Holy Church was completely unaware of Kotomine Kirei's actions.
So in the original plot, after the news that Assassin was not dead was exposed, not many people believed in the orders of the supervisor, Iwamine Riki. Even if other servants were summoned to the Cathedral Church with the Master to discuss the attack on Bluebeard, those who went were all familiars.
Now that Assassin has also been exposed, he is still at a loss as to what to do, and the decision-making power returns to Kotomine Kirei.
Kotomine Kirei frowned. After hearing the news conveyed by Assassin, he, who was originally emotionless, became quite calm in his heart and thought of the agreement he had made with Tōsaka Tokiomi.
"Assassin, change position and continue surveillance."
"As you wish, my lord."
Assassin immediately disappeared from the crane after hearing the new order from Kotomine Kirei.
He has the skill of "Breath Blocking", so as long as he is careful, he can still avoid the attention of other servants.
However, no one thought that Assassin had really run away. The assassin must be hiding in the dark and continuing to monitor this place.
Director Ken, standing on the roof of the warehouse, now feels a little bad!
Originally, he dared to stand out in a high-profile manner because he knew that Assassin was dead and there was no need to worry about this assassin.
But now... Assassin has been confirmed to be alive, so is it possible that he could be lurking by his side?
The thought of a Servant who was skilled in assassination, watching him secretly, trying to kill him...
Director Ken felt a chill down his spine. His life was not guaranteed and he urgently needed his own Lancer to provide close protection.
However, the current situation does not seem to allow him to let Lancer come back. Originally, he let Lancer wander the streets to attract one or two servants, and then have a rough battle with them to understand the opponent's intelligence.
Now, one servant, two servants, three servants... so many servants have come, turning tonight into a servant meeting.
Are all seven servants going to appear together today?
"You all saw it, right?"
Bai Shi glanced at all the servants present with an arrogant look, and then said in a superior tone: "I, who possess the 'Eye of All-Seeing', did not deceive you."
"With Assassin as proof, you should now believe what I say. Everything is under my control."
"Including the outcome of the Holy Grail War."
"The outcome of this Holy Grail War is also in my control. There is no real winner. The so-called Holy Grail that can fulfill all wishes is nothing more than an exaggerated propaganda."
Shiraishi started talking nonsense, but in his opinion, the Holy Grail's ability to grant all wishes was a deception.
If all wishes can come true, please give me ninety-nine more wishes.
If such a simple wish cannot be realized, how can we say that all wishes can be realized?
"Isn't the Holy Grail an all-purpose wish-granting machine?"
Irisviel heard what Shiraishi said and said unconvincedly, "According to the records of our Einzbern family, as long as we complete the ritual and summon the Holy Grail, all our wishes will come true..."
"Ahem... Madam Nine, your so-called records have never been verified. Is there any evidence to prove that the Holy Grail can fulfill all wishes?"
Shiraishi coughed twice, interrupting what Irisviel was saying, then looked at the woman who had an unconvinced look on her face and was almost like a child and said.
"But……"
"No buts. If you want to say that the Holy Grail can fulfill all wishes, you need to show us the evidence first."
Bai Shi said indifferently: "It's the fourth Holy Grail War now. There have been three before. May I ask which Holy Grail War summoned the Holy Grail to fulfill wishes?"
"Not even once. It was originally a scam, but you actually believed it and even wanted to fight for the Holy Grail."
"Even if you really fight to the end, it will be in vain. The Holy Grail cannot satisfy all your wishes."
"Everything you pay has a price."
Shiraishi knows the most about this, because in the Dragon Ball world, he has collected seven dragon balls, summoned the dragon, and made a wish.
What's more, the Holy Grail War in the Type-Moon world is inherently distorted. It was contaminated during the Third Holy Grail War. Now, even if you summon the Holy Grail and make a wish, it will be fulfilled in a weird way.
Main text: Chapter 79 Chapter 77 Master and Disciple, Encouragement from the King of Conquerors
"Caster, you said that the Holy Grail War was a hoax. So even if we get the Holy Grail in the end, we can't fulfill our wishes. How did you know that?"
The King of Conquerors looked at Bai Shi seriously, his eyes as sharp as a knife falling on Bai Shi at this moment.
He came to participate in the Holy Grail War not for fun, nor to fight against Servants from different eras.
The real reason why he wanted to participate in the Holy Grail War was nothing more than the wish he made after obtaining the Holy Grail - a dream that had never been realized in his lifetime, which he would definitely realize if he could do it again.
The King of Conquerors wants to be resurrected from the dead, and in this new era, once again begin his road of conquest...
Now he was suddenly told that the Holy Grail could not fulfill his wish, which made him unable to calm down.
Shiraishi also looked at the King of Conquerors, ignoring the knife-like glare, and responded with a chuckle: "Of course I saw it through my 'All-Seeing Eyes'. I saw the end of the Holy Grail War."
"After the Holy Grail is summoned, can't wishes be granted?"
The King of Conquerors asked.
The others also looked at Bai Shi. Although they didn't say anything, their desire to know was evident on their faces.
Even Emiya Kiritsugu's breathing became rapid.
As a bounty hunter, he had long despaired of this world. War, chaos... there were too few stable places!
His experiences from childhood to adulthood have made him develop an introverted personality.
Having witnessed war and chaos, he was too weak to save many people, so when he heard that the Holy Grail War could fulfill wishes, he couldn't wait to take part in it, and even married into the Einzbern family for this purpose.
Just to get the Holy Grail to fulfill his unattainable wish.
However, after a brutal battle, in which he even abandoned his 9-year-old wife, he finally summoned the so-called Holy Grail, only to find out that it was poisonous. This was a terrible way to fulfill his wish.
If peace were really achieved in this way, the world would be destroyed.
Of course, the world itself is intact, but humans are gone. Isn't a world without humans destroyed?
Emiya Kiritsugu would never allow such a world to appear, so he forced Saber to destroy the Holy Grail.
"Rider, I've said before that all efforts must have a price. Doesn't it mean that the Holy Grail doesn't require a price to fulfill wishes?"
Shiraishi looked at the King of Conquerors, his tone became calm, and he said frankly: "You may say that the magic power of six servants is the price for fulfilling your wish, but this is definitely not enough."
"If the wish comes true, it's a miracle."
"And if you want a miracle to happen, you must pay a price. The magic power of six servants alone is not enough to pay the price..."
"If you can't pay enough, your wish will certainly not come true. Even if it does come true, it won't be the wish you want."
Bai Shi felt that he had said enough nonsense. If he continued, he would run out of lies. So he changed the subject: "Okay, I've told you the truth about the Holy Grail War. You may not believe it, but I don't expect you to believe it."
