In the following time, Chi Yao entered a state of deep meditation. While recovering, he recalled the previous battles and summarized his experience.
Tamamonomae tidied up the magic studio and did some household chores, behaving like a good wife should.
"Now that the shadow monster has been dealt with, I want to go and see what progress has been made in today's era." Gilgamesh left only this sentence and went out for a stroll.
Chi Yao was immersed in meditation, and by the time he recovered perfectly, it was already the next morning.
When Chi Yao opened his eyes, what he saw was Tamamonomae and the delicious dishes she had made.
Seeing Chi Yao wake up, Tamamonomae smiled and said, "Master, are you awake? Breakfast is ready~"
"Well, Xiaoyu, let's eat together. After that, we'll go out for a while." Chi Yao nodded. He had already adapted to Tamamonomae's behavior.
"Well, okay, Master~" Tamamonomae responded with a smile.
After the two of them finished the breakfast that could be called a "banquet", Tamamonomae asked, "Master, where are we going next?"
"The Holy Church, Assassin's Master might be there. By the way, we can ask for information about Tohsaka Tokiomi's wife, Tohsaka Aoi." Chi Yao stood up and said.
Tamamonomae nodded, as if to say, "I understand.JPG."
"Xiao Yu, transform into a spirit. We need to conceal our identities." Chi Yao covered the Command Seal on the back of his right hand with light magic and changed his face to that of an ordinary person.
Tamamonomae turned into a spirit and disappeared. Chi Yao opened the door, walked out of the base, and headed for the Holy Church.
The location of the Cathedral Church is quite easy to find. It is near the central street of Fuyuki City, and the tall Western-style church is also quite conspicuous.
"Squeak~" Chi Yao pushed open the door and walked into the church. At first glance, the decoration inside the church was luxurious. The entire church had a large space and looked high-end. The tables and chairs inside were neatly arranged, and the floor was clean and almost spotless. It was obvious that someone cleaned it regularly every day.
It was eight o'clock in the morning and there were not many people in the church. Only the priest and several nuns were praying devoutly to the cross.
The priest had just finished praying and said to the nuns, "The prayer is over, Ellie, you can go back first."
Several nuns nodded and said goodbye to Father Kotomine Risho, "Thank you, Father Risho. Please take care of yourself. We will go back first."
After sending the nun away, Yan Fengli looked at Chi Yao who had just come in. He first looked at the backs of his hands and found that there were no marks and no traces of magic, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Yanfeng Lizheng no longer paid attention to Chi Yao. Instead, he rubbed his temples and found a bench to sit down and rest for a while. The follow-up handling of the recent Holy Grail War had already made him exhausted.
First, there was the explosion at the Tōsaka family. Tōsaka Tokiomi, who was the intended ally, completely lost contact and there is still no news about him to this day. He is presumably dead.
After that, there was a battle at the dock and a battle in the city streets. A barrier was set up for the battle in the city streets, and Kotomine Kirei's servants were unable to obtain any useful information. They could only confirm that it was done by Caster's Master combination, who destroyed the Lancer combination.
And yesterday, a large-scale destruction accident occurred in a remote area of Fuyuki City!
The hole was as big as an entire block and completely penetrated the sewer. It must have been caused by a fight between the servants, but the details of the fight were not clear. The fight ended very quickly and was covered by a barrier. The Holy Church only learned the information later and could only cover it up with the public opinion that "a small earthquake that rarely happens in a century caused a gas explosion."
"Father, I want to confess." Chi Yao walked in front of Yanfeng Lizheng and decided to learn the routine of a certain hunter.
"Young man, do you want to confess?"
Yan Fengli was looking at the handsome and harmless-looking Chi Yao, and was a little hesitant, but finally agreed.
"Okay, the confessional is over here, follow me."
Kotomine Ritsu was standing up, temporarily putting the trivialities of the Holy Grail War behind her.
Yanfeng Li was taking Chi Yao to a room on the side of the church. This was the confessional, divided into two small areas separated by a wooden board in the middle, specifically for confession.
Chi Yao and Yan Fengli were entering one side of the room respectively. There was a wooden board between them. There was a circle of small circular holes on the board in the middle to facilitate the transmission of sound.
Kotomine Risei cleared his throat and placed his hand on the Bible.
"My child, repent! God is listening..."
Kotomine Risei has conducted this form of confession many times and is extremely skilled at it.
Since he had already taken Yanfeng Lizheng to a deserted place, Chi Yao didn't need to pretend anymore.
Chi Yao waved his hand, and the wooden board in front of him opened directly, revealing Kotomine Rizheng who was reading the Bible. The whole room was wrapped in an airflow circle of wind element, ensuring that the sound could not be transmitted to the outside world.
Seeing Chi Yao's actions, Yan Fengli immediately stood up and assumed a fighting stance.
"Magician? Who are you? This is the Holy Church!"
"Don't be nervous, Father Kotomine Rizheng, I'm just here to consult you on a few questions." Chi Yao said calmly, clenching his right hand, and an invisible airflow directly restrained Kotomine Rizheng's movements.
Yanfeng Lizheng was already old at this time, and his physical condition was not as good as when he was young. Now he was unable to break free from the air restraints cast by Chi Yao.
Kotomine Rizheng realized that the current situation was that he was being interrogated and there was no way to escape.
Yanfeng Lizheng was silent for a while, then said, "What do you want to ask?"
"Where is your son Kotomine Kirei?"
"Kotomine Kirei? Why are you asking him?!"
Chi Yao frowned and clenched his right hand a little tighter. "Father, I hope you can recognize the current situation and answer the questions properly. It will be good for both of us."
"Ugh!!" Kotomine Ri was struggling against the tightening air restraints, and immediately said, "I will never betray my own son!!"
"Even if this son will kill you as a father?" Chi Yao raised his eyebrows.
"Hmph! Don't even think about sowing discord. Kirei is not that kind of person!" Kotomine Risei said firmly, showing great confidence in his son.
"Okay, let's change the question. Where is Toosaka Aoi?" Chi Yao changed the subject and asked for other information.
Yanfeng Lizheng was stunned for a moment. Chi Yao actually gave up asking further questions, with an expression that said, "You don't want to continue asking?"
"Hurry up, my patience is limited. One is your son Kotomine Kirei, and the other is the unrelated Tousaka Aoi. It shouldn't be that difficult to choose, right?" Chi Yao gave examples of both options, and tightened his right hand a little, forcing Kotomine Kirei to make a quick choice.
Out of concern for her son, Kotomine Risei chose to reveal some of Tousaka Aoi's information, "She is currently living in XXX, the neighboring city."
"Has Jiantong Yanye ever looked for her? Have you been monitoring Jiantong Yanye?" Chi Yao continued to ask.
Kotomine Risho's expression suddenly changed. Chi Yao in front of him actually knew so much about the situation of the Matou family and the Tohsaka family. He immediately asked back, "Who are you?"
