"I always feel like you are all so busy... I have nothing else to do except being attacked by Lancer once. It's so annoying..."
"Why does it feel like I'm the only outsider...!"
The first one to arrive was Tohsaka Rin.
She looked a bit like...she had been hollowed out, and there was an indelible confusion in her expression.
"Sit down first...it's a big deal, I'll tell you in detail later..."
Matou Shinji rubbed his forehead and sighed.
"It's best not to do anything that delays my time, Shinji."
Akuko was reading a book and said to Matou Shinji.
An Nuo and Xiang An were sitting next to each other with their chests folded, both of them closing their eyes and concentrating without saying a word.
Archer looked at Shirou and frowned.
...It's that smell.
What happened to this guy...? No, this Holy Grail War is completely different from the Holy Grail War in my memory. I couldn't predict what happened...
I definitely don’t know what happened to him...
But, how to put it.
I feel so unhappy when I see this serious face...
"snort."
Like Xiang An and Annuo, he closed his eyes and leaned against the wall. Archer did not choose to speak.
Adroson's face was solemn, but because the last person hadn't arrived yet... he didn't say anything.
Be sure to wait until everyone arrives...
This matter must unite everyone who can be united before it can be done.
That malice... is definitely not something simple...!
Dududu——
Shirou's phone rang.
"Huh? Ah..."
"Hello, Mr. Kotomine."
He took out the phone and looked at the name on it for a moment, then he answered the call.
"Emiya Shirou, could you please turn on the speakerphone?"
Kotomine Kirei's voice, which seemed extremely calm at all times, came from the phone.
"Huh?...Okay, I understand."
Nodding, Shirou Emiya turned on the speakerphone and put the phone on the table.
"If nothing else happens, Shinji Matou's investigation should have yielded some substantial results."
"Then, as a help, maybe I'll let a 'dangerous person' you know enter the Emiya family's mansion."
"She is one of my allies... and what you don't know, the last Master in this Holy Grail War."
"Then, Emiya Shirou—is that okay?"
Shirou was a little confused.
He turned his head and took a look.
Now...
Sitting here are the Saber team, myself and Annuo.
Rider group, Mustachio and Xiang An.
Archer group, Tohsaka Rin and unknown red Archer.
Team Caster, Sakura and Adrosson Falgo.
This is already four groups of people.
Assassin has been eliminated, and the remaining Assassin's master, Yanagi Kazunari, is currently observing this "meeting".
The master of the Berserker group is Illyasviel von Einzbern. The servants don't know his real name, but this group is currently in the Einzbern family's castle.
Then, the last Master mentioned by Mr. Kotomine is...
"Lancer's Master!?"
Bang!
Tohsaka Rin stood up.
"You mean you want to bring that dangerous person in!? - Senior brother, that guy was still directing Lancer to attack my stronghold yesterday!"
The expression on her face was clearly angry.
"That's because as of yesterday, the Holy Grail War was still operating normally to a certain extent."
Kotomine Kirei's voice was still calm.
"As for now...if nothing happens, what Shinji Matou investigates should bring the Holy Grail War to a halt."
"My ally is a very by-the-book person. She won't do anything while I'm here - so, as the owner of the mansion, what do you think, Shirou?"
Kotomine Kirei's words were obviously asking for Emiya Shirou's opinion.
Emiya Shirou nodded without thinking.
"Bring her here, Mr. Kotomine."
"According to what Shinji said, we must...find a way to unite everything!"
...
After a while, Kotomine Kirei brought his "allies" to Emiya's mansion.
He had regular long hair as always, and was wearing the priest's attire that seemed to have not changed for ten thousand years, and behind him was a woman in a suit.
After the woman entered the door, she glanced around.
"Okay...hehe, if the master hadn't said so, I would have really wanted to fight you... Judging from the aura, everyone is worth killing."
Lancer walked into the room and smiled sharply.
An Nuo and Xiang An opened their eyes together and looked towards him. An invisible sense of oppression suddenly enveloped Lancer.
Kazuko also raised her head and glanced at Lancer, feeling even more stressed.
Lancer:......
"Bazette, you promised me."
Kotomine Kirei glanced at Bazett expressionlessly.
"Okay, okay...ncer, quiet down, shut up."
Bazett glared at Lancer who started provoking others after entering the door.
Lancer's expression was stunned for a moment, then turned a little aggrieved.
Master, didn't you tell me to be tougher...
"Let me introduce you. This person's name is Bazett Fraga Macramis. He is a member of the Magic Association's Seal Designated Operation Bureau. He is also Lancer's master during this Holy Grail War."
"We have had many exchanges at work, so we have become each other's allies."
"And the Lancer over there is named Cu Chulainn. You can investigate the information about him later."
Bazett and Cu Chulainn, who had turned away on the spot, looked dumbfounded at Kotomine Kirei, who had just thrown away their old friends just after they met.
"No, you just opened the box with my name, my workplace, and Lancer's real name?"
Bazett had some doubts about whether the person he fell in love with was crazy.
"Only when we understand each other can we work together, right?"
Kotomine Kirei just squinted his eyes, looked at Bazett and smiled.
He knew Bazett very well, that's why he said everything he could so straightforwardly.
Only in this way will Bazett be willing to cooperate with these "little kids" as she calls them to a certain extent.
"So - now that everyone is here, Shinji Matou, what is the news you want to tell us?"
Kotomine Kirei sat opposite Emiya Shirou and looked at Matou Shinji.
"...Ancestor, I'm begging you."
Shenji was silent for a moment and closed his eyes.
"Show what I see to everyone here, let's take a look...!"
