Chapter 27 The Second Bomb

"So, it was on that guy. Luck is on my side after all."

Roland didn't care that there were people in front of him, and his face showed an expression of almost twisted ecstasy.

A ticket to leave this world, a trial to increase authority, a brand new power, for Roland, recovering the first contract spirit means almost everything.

As long as he could recover the soul, it would mean eternal peace. In such joy, even his nails stopped growing unnecessarily.

The reason why he was able to remain calm even when he was involved in the Holy Grail War was because he discovered the traces left by the Contracted Spirits. Actions with hope will always bring good results.

When Roland was running around in Fuyuki City, there was no trace of the Contract Spirit. When he began to slowly plan and prepare to participate in the Holy Grail War, the thing he had been looking for suddenly appeared in front of him.

Gently brushing his fingers across the back of Hisau Maiya's hand, and feeling her legs weakened by fear and no longer able to support the weight of her body, Roland looked down at her with a charming smile.

It was not difficult to recognize Hisahi Maiya. After gradually matching different characters with the images in his memory, Roland's recognition ability became much stronger than before. In addition, Hisahi Maiya's medium-length hair and the characteristics of her usual use of firearms made it even easier to recognize her after she was exposed.

After discovering that Hisau Maiya was here, there was no need to say much about who the contract spirit belonged to. On the surface, this woman and Emiya Kiritsugu were lovers, but on a deeper level, the connection between them was like that between the internal organs and the brain, and it was impossible to separate them too far.

Emiya Kiritsugu was definitely nearby, and after Hisau Maiya made a small gesture of tapping the intercom, she received a notification that the Contract Spirit was nearby after a while.

Roland could conclude that the lost contracted spirit was in Kiritsugu Emiya's body.

The only thing he needs to pay attention to is whether there are any heroic spirits around the other party, but fortunately, he has an intelligence source around him.

"Well then, Miss Hisau Maiya, now that you understand your situation, let's start a pleasant conversation."

"First, I want to confirm one thing. Is it true that Emiya Kiritsugu still summoned Saber?"

"Kill me."

Hisau Maiya said calmly.

"No matter what you threaten me with, it's the same. I will never betray Emiya Kiritsugu."

"Even if I use Emiya Kiritsugu himself, it won't work? Then let me show you a simple trick."

Under the gaze of Hisau Maiya, Roland took out a coin from his pocket and threw it into the air. Under the gaze of Hisayu Maiya, the coin was blown into pieces in mid-air, and the tiny black residue dissipated like snow before it could fall.

Seeing this scene, Hisau Maiya widened her eyes slightly and suddenly realized how her gun disappeared.

"This is the ability of my Stand, Killer Queen," Roland said softly, "anything she touches will turn into a bomb."

"Although this was not my original intention, I have to admit that this ability is the pinnacle of assassination."

It's more than the pinnacle of talent, it's simply god-like talent.

Hisau Maiya, who has worked hard on assassination for many years, has already mastered the technique. No matter how crude the props are, they can be turned into deadly weapons in her hands, even a bamboo stick.

But this is still within the scope of human beings. You still need to stab, shoot, and plant bombs to eliminate the enemy. The ability to turn it into a bomb with just a slight touch means that you only need to pass by casually on the enemy's path in advance, and you can reap the rewards.

Without knowing, no one could react, and no one would be prepared for it. Even Hisau Maiya herself could not have imagined that she would step on an invisible bomb while walking along a path.

Wait... No one, anyone?

"You've figured it out, Miss Hisau," Roland said with a nasty smile, "At the first sight, I would have easily killed Emiya Kiritsugu who didn't know about this. That stupid man couldn't even realize what was going on. And now, the only one who knows this key information and can give him hope is you."

In the face of Hisau Maiya's murderous gaze, the devil smiled slyly.

"Ms. Hisau Maiya, you don't want to see Emiya Kiritsugu die inexplicably, do you?"

"what you up to?"

Hisau Maiya finally surrendered. Even though she considered herself a weapon, she still had her own weaknesses.

"It's just a simple transaction. It's very simple. I ask the questions and you just confirm them. These are all information I already know. I just need to confirm them again. If it's something I don't know, you don't need to tell me. This way, it shouldn't be considered betrayal."

There was a gleam of suspicion in Hisau Maiya's eyes, but in the end she nodded helplessly.

"Very good, then the first question is still the same as before, Emiya Kiritsugu's Heroic Spirit is Saber, right?"

"Yes."

Although I don't know how the other party realized that Kiritsugu was the real Master, since he knew this, there was no point in hiding his class.

after all...

"Second question, Saber is staying with Irisviel, so she is the one pretending to be the Master, right?"

As expected, Hisau Maiya sighed and nodded. This plan could not be exposed. Where did this guy get the information from?

"Very good, ... then let's continue with the third one..."

Roland nodded in satisfaction. Although he had asked all the questions he needed to ask, he didn't mind confirming a little more. But at this moment, with the help of the Killer Queen's eyesight, he keenly noticed that a little magic power was gathering at Hisau Maiya's fingertips. The next moment, a small magic bullet flew out!

"Is this guy actually a magician?"

Although he had read the original work, Roland naturally did not know the details of Hisau Maiya. He did not dare to be careless and subconsciously let the Killer Queen stand in front of him.

Before the slow-moving magic bullet could fly over, Killer Queen had already dispersed it with one punch.

This was a feint, and Roland soon realized it. Magic bullets are the most basic magic, and if one's aptitude is not good, they cannot exert their power. Hisau Maiya's aptitude is obviously very poor, and the magic bullets she fired are like light balloons, so it's okay even if she's hit.

She had no intention of fighting back, but of running away!

Even in the moment of submission, this woman still showed her innate charm.

While Roland was defending, Hisau Maiya retreated a little and looked at Roland without changing her expression. However, to Hisau Maiya's surprise, Roland still had a calm smile on his face.

"Alas, it's really troublesome not to know the way of magic. Compared to a professional killer like you, that guy Uryuu Ryuunosuke is just a useless pervert."

Roland, who was tricked, was also a little surprised, but this was also within his expectations.

"You want to delay time and wait for Emiya Kiritsugu to meet up with you? But unfortunately, this is impossible. Why do you think I only asked for fifteen minutes of leave?"

As if his disguise had been torn off, Roland no longer concealed himself and finally revealed a crazy smile.

"Of course it's fifteen minutes, which is enough time for me to deal with you and Emiya Kiritsugu. While I was talking to you, I sent another reliable guy to deal with him."

Having said that, Roland looked at the Killer Queen beside him. On the left hand of his stand-in, a small groove had been left, and the badge on it had disappeared.

"Although the second bomb is far from invincible, it is definitely not something that can be dealt with easily. If Emiya Kiritsugu is unlucky, there will probably be a satirical comedy where a killer who is good at using bombs ends up being blown to pieces."

Roland glanced at Hisau Maiya with an unhappy look and slowly walked towards her.

"In the meantime, let us continue this unfinished conversation."
