Kotomine Kirei returned to the ruined church with a calm expression. Apart from the damaged black monk's robes, there was no sign that he had just experienced a battle.
He threw the unconscious Irisviel into the basement below the church. He silently returned to the open-air auditorium, looked at the cross soaked red with his father's blood, and fell into a long silence.
Kotomine Riko was lying quietly on the ground, his expression still as ferocious as before his death. His body was already cold and stiff.
Kotomine Kirei recalled every moment he spent with his father. He lowered his head and looked at his right wrist, which was covered with red command spells. When collecting his father's body, he found his father's last words written in blood.
jn424.
If you are not a believer in the Lord, you may only think that this is some kind of code with unknown meaning, but it is indeed a code. For Kotomine Kirei, who has devout faith, he immediately understood what the code represented.
meaning.
Holy Book Gospel 4:24. God is the Holy Spirit. Therefore, when we worship God, we must worship with soul and truth.
These words were deeply imprinted on his mind, to the point where they came to him as soon as he opened his mouth. It seemed like a magic spell. While Kotomine Kirei recited these sacred words, the command spell on Kotomine Rimasa's body was
It was transferred to Kotomine Kirei.
Those past memories kept flashing back in his brain, and the crystal clear water dropped on the ground, breaking into mottled marks. Kotomine Kirei subconsciously reached out his hand and touched his cheek.
Facing his dead father, crying should be a normal behavior, but Kotomine Kirei fell into great confusion. Silent fear floated in his heart, and he touched his beating hot heart with cold and rotten hands.
When was the last time you shed tears in your memory?
Kotomine Kirei fell into memories. It was already three years ago, and he still clearly remembered that the woman he loved died in front of his eyes.
At that time, I also shed tears, and the sealed emotions were also awakened by death three years later. It was obvious that at that time, I had realized what I longed for.
【I want this woman.】
【I want to see this woman look more like.】
He loves her so deeply, and the same is true for his father. For ordinary people, fathers, wives and children should obviously be an indispensable part of life. Kotomine Kirei hopes that he will be the same.
in this way.
But in front of the woman's body, he finally understood his true nature.
——They are just aliens disguised as rational beings.
So during these three years, he prayed in his heart all the time that he could feel this supreme joy again.
But his father died just like that, just like his wife. If they were destined to die, why not do it by their own hands?
The devil's chuckle appeared in his ears, seeming to be saying something. Kotomine Kirei controlled himself not to listen. His own thoughts made him sink in pain and pleasure. This kind of thinking was wrong. He told him so more than once
Own.
The familiar scriptures came out of his mouth unconsciously. This may be the instinct of a priest. Kotomine Kirei restrained his divergent thinking and focused all his attention on the scriptures.
"Just as I forgive my enemies, forgive our sins. Please don't give me temptation and save us from our sins, Amen."
Kotomine Kirei burst into tears and sealed the thoughts in his heart again. He meditated and prayed for his father and made a cross shape on his chest.
“May you find true peace and joy after being called to the Lord.”
………
………
After praying, Kotomine Kirei routinely contacted the Tohsaka Prefecture in Miyama Town through the magic communication machine. Although the Fuyuki Church was completely destroyed, fortunately the underground facilities were still intact.
"I'm sorry for what happened to your father. Li Zheng is also an old friend of mine. I didn't expect to die here. Please bear with me and bear with me."
After being polite, Kotomine Kirei told Tohsaka Tokiomi what happened tonight, but he concealed the fact that he had captured Irisviel.
"Is it possible that the Master of Einzbern has retired?"
After receiving the information, Tokiomi Tosaka pondered slightly. Naturally, he also saw what happened in Einzbern Castle through his familiar, but his familiar was killed without detecting much information.
It can be inferred that he is definitely not the only one looking at Einzbern Castle.
Thinking of what happened in the morning, Tokiomi Tosaka already roughly understood the reason for Kenneth's attack on Einzbern Castle, but he did not expect that Einzbern, one of the "Three Imperial Families", would be dealt with so easily.
Lost.
Should it be said that he is worthy of being the monarch of the Clock Tower? This strength is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary magicians. Even with Archer as his trump card, Tokiomi Tosaka couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
Although he is very confident in his ability to fight magic, he has not yet grown to the point where he can defeat a monarch. Especially the supreme ceremonial, the Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid, has an overwhelming advantage in a magic duel.
.
【It would be great if the Tosaka family could make a jewel sword.】
The Gem Sword is a design left by the Demon Marshal Kishua to the ancestor of the Tosaka family, Tosaka Nagato. The Tosaka family has spent a lot of money, time and energy on this, but the completion of the Gem Sword is still far away.
If it could be made into a gem sword... Tokiomi Tosaka couldn't help but think about it.
But he quickly came to his senses. Perhaps it was because the Holy Grail War had been sliding towards the unknown abyss since its beginning. The fear from the unknown actually made him long for the unknown power.
"What about other information?"
"The Matou family was also attacked."
"I already know this."
Tokiomi Tosaka frowned. The attack on the Matou family was indeed unexpected. According to the original plan, the Matou family planned to give up this Holy Grail War.
"What about the information about the Master and Servants who attacked the Matou family?"
"It's a necromancer named Shiki Kairi, who is based in the public cemetery in Fuyuki City. He seemed to have used some kind of powerful bomb, and the entire Matou room was razed to the ground. I have instructed the work of the Holy Church.
Personnel are cleaning up traces at the scene."
"Some kind of powerful bomb..."
Tokiomi Tohsaka was breathing heavily. He had an unusual headache and disgust at the unplanned changes. Moreover, Shishi Kaikai was obviously a magician, but he used those inferior things. This kind of blasphemy against magic
The behavior made him feel shameless.
Tokiomi Tosaka and Kenneth have the same views on magic, because they are both traditional magicians from famous families. This kind of blasphemy against magic is not allowed and must be eliminated first.
