Chapter 48

Waver climbed into the chariot with difficulty, and Iskandar said in a loud voice.

"Everyone, the next time we meet, we will be enemies! I will not show mercy at that time, and there will be a time later!".

The lightning-glittering chariot soared into the sky, and finally, with only the roaring thunder in everyone's ears, the chariot disappeared into the eastern sky.

And Archer silently turned into a golden light and disappeared.

Saber watched the scene speechlessly, and finally stood there motionless.

In front of her eyes, she was still reminiscing about the sound of thousands of heroic spirits fighting and roaring in the world of "King's Army".

For some reason, Saber felt a little lonely when he thought of the correct ideals he had always believed in, but in the end he was left alone.

"Once... There was a knight who was about to leave who said to me, "The king does not understand the human heart", and that may be the idea of a certain knight. "

Saber's beautiful face had a sad look at this moment, her glass-colored eyes flashed, and sadness enveloped her.

"Saber, it is your faith that gives hope to the people in their patience with poverty, and your path to kingship is not to command a few strong, but to lead more powerless. "

Shirou, who knew how shining Saber's holy sword really shone at the moment, said seriously after standing up.

"..."

Saber was stunned, looking at the backs of Shirou and Lancer slowly moving away, his eyes were a little complicated.

She not only contains the shadow of being seen through by the other party, but also has a good impression of him because of today's events.

All kinds of feelings are inexplicably intertwined, but they are difficult for her to digest.

...

Fukayama Town, Tosaka Residence Underground Workshop. Now it was surrounded by a bitter silence.

"Rider's ... How much is the evaluation of the noble phantasm ...".

Tokiomi asked Kirei on the other side of the telegraph with some heaviness.

"Same as Gilgamesh's "King's Treasure... That is, exceeding the evaluation criteria. "

With a sigh.

The conclusion was just as they expected.

Being able to learn about Rider's noble phantasm level before the fight makes the Assassin's sacrifice also worth a lot.

If he fights Rider with insufficient intelligence, Tokiomi will definitely have no way to take that super noble phantasm.

The only thing that exceeded their expectations was the level of this treasure - even if they knew about this treasure beforehand, would they be able to find a way to deal with it?

Previously, Tokiomi had always thought that his Servant.Archer's Noble Phantasm was the strongest Noble Phantasm, but he didn't expect Rider Noble Phantasm can easily kill Servant and Rider Noble Phantasm have a same level of Archer's Noble Phantasm, which was really beyond his expectations.

Perhaps throwing away the Assassin pawn was a fatal mistake at this point.

When facing a dangerous enemy like Rider, it is better to use human tracking to obtain information than to risk a frontal attack.

If you can encounter the situation where Rider and his Master go their separate ways, you can also find an opportunity to assassinate ...and so on

"... Idiot. "

Tokiomi shook his head, he had made himself so embarrassed.

This is not a strategy at all, it is simply a whim of Tosaka.

But things weren't to the point of despair, and there was plenty of information to encourage him to pull himself together.

For example, the person who made a pact with Iskandar was nothing more than a third-rate Magus.

If it was Lord El-Melloi who summoned him at that time and made him the Servant of Lord El-Melloi.

Then the situation will be much more serious, and the Servant's ability will fluctuate according to the power of its Master.

The dispute between Kayneth and his disciples was also taken advantage of by Tokiomi.

"However, speaking of which, why didn't Kayneth participate in this Holy Grail War, according to his character, he shouldn't be afraid to ...fight." Tokiomi muttered with some confusion.

However, since Kayneth did not participate, Tokiomi's strong opponent would be one less one, which is also a good thing.

It seems that the luck of this Fourth Holy Grail War is on Tokiomi's side.

It's finally time to get real. Tokiomi took the wooden staff beside him in his hand and stroked it calmly and firmly.

The extra-large gem in the handle is sealed with the magic power that Tokiomi has spent a lifetime refining to refine.

This is the official dress of the Magus Tosaka Tokiomi.

"Since there are no more Assassins, then Kirei, you don't have to spare your strength. "

"Yes, I see. "

From the side of the magic communication machine, Kirei Kotomine's low and indifferent words came.

This first-class disciple and agent still has quite strong combat power even if he loses the Servant.

Now that he can no longer command the Assassin, he no longer needs to disguise, and it is time for him to unleash his abilities.

As expected, it's a second scenario from now on. Based on the information gathered by the Assassins, Gilgamesh was mobilized to begin expelling the enemy.

As for the countermeasures against Rider, we should also find them slowly in the process.

It's finally time to get out of the workshop and onto the battlefield. Quietly feeling the pain caused by the magic mark, Tokiomi stood up from his chair.

And this scene was seen by a crow outside the workshop. At the same time, those images were transmitted back to Shirou's mind.

Shirou, who was sitting at his desk at home, sketched a pen on the notebook on the table.

"After hiding for so long, Tosaka Tokiomi's is finally willing to his move. "

...

Hours had passed since that feast, and the night had gone, and the sun had returned.

Shirou couldn't help but yawn as he walked on the way to school.

"Hah~~~~".

Last night, he was dragged by the enthusiastic Rider to a drinking party, but Shirou didn't drink any wine, and he stubbornly helped Saber to match with Gilgamesh, and finally had to take a taxi home by himself.

It's miserable.

"I really shouldn't have attended..." Shirou grumbled.

But in the end, I won the favor of Saber, is this a profit or a loss?

Shirou really couldn't judge such an ethereal thing.

The pedestrians around cast curious glances at Shirou's appearance with dark circles under his eyes and not even carrying his schoolbag, but Shirou didn't care.

"Probably Tosaka Tokiomi and them will do something to the castle tonight. "

Shirou was immediately aware of this after the Assassin appeared yesterday.
